B. the history of California

For a speech, 10 minutes is really just enough time to pretty much cover the basics.  When we consider that the average time it takes to read/speak is approximately 250 words a minute, and with the understanding that one typed page is 250 words, this means that 10 minutes would cover only four pages of text.  With that in mind, the topic of “The History of California,” it can be safely assumed that only a superficial covering of the history would be covered because there is so much that could be covered, especially keeping in mind that California’s history could include everything from prehistoric times (or earlier) to the present day.  When deciding on a topic, one should always keep the required length in mind and decide whether the topic is suitable for the page/time length because for broad topics many pages and lots of time would be required in order to adequately cover everything of which it is comprised.   For low page/time requirements, a narrow topic is what would be needed.

The correct answer is B. The history of California

Explanation:

Determining whether a topic is manageable which means the topic is appropriate and can be developed within the time provided mainly depends on the amount of information or details that are necessary to present for the audience to completely understand the topic. This usually means if there are just a few details the topic is too narrow and the speaker will not cover the time and excessive details mean the topic is too broad and the speaker will be unable to explain all the information in the time provide. Considering this, the topic that is too broad for a 10-minute speech is "The history of California" because for this topic to be appropriately explained to the audience it requires the speaker includes multiple details on the way the state was created and changed over time. This means the speaker will need to include a lot of information and cover multiple historical periods and therefore 10 minutes will not be enough to cover all the information which makes this topic too broad..

How is the motif of “nature” developed throughout the short story “The Interlopers?”
olasank [31]

Answer:

Nature is presented as superior to humans in all inevitability in the text.

Explanation:

When the text beings, the two brothers treat nature as something they can easily control as they wish to but as it progresses, the strife between the brothers begins to culminate. It represents the infighting between humans.

Von Gradwitz and Znaeym eventually lose to the nature, not to each other as they fought for a narrow strip of forest for so long.

They remain the true interlopers of the story and the nature triumphs as something that cannot be overcome by any man.

What kinds of ceremonies or celebrations did people of this culture practice?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Ceremony and rituals have long played a vital and essential role in Native American culture. Often referred to as “religion,” most Native Americans did not consider their spirituality, ceremonies, and rituals as “religion,” in the way that Christians do. Rather, their beliefs and practices form an integral and seamless part of their very being. Like other aboriginal peoples around the world, their beliefs were heavily influenced by their methods of acquiring food, – from hunting to agriculture. They also embraced ceremonies and rituals that provided power to conquer the difficulties of life, as wells as events and milestones, such as puberty, marriage, and death. Over the years, practices and ceremonies changed with tribes‘ needs.
