Write 5 in complete sentences What do you think should be invented and why
NISA [10]

Answer: Cooling beds and pillows… If excessive sweating has you waking up at night, a cooling mattress may help. It's designed to keep your body temperature cool so that you don't sleep hot. You end up sweating significantly less since the mattress absorbs body heat and then disperses it instead of trapping it.

Why does Geoffrey Ashe most likely make the following reference to depictions of biblical scenes in “Conversation with Geoffrey
shutvik [7]

Answer:

b) To prove that artists are not historians

Explanation:

Geoffrey Ashe most likely made the reference in the depiction of biblical scenes because he wanted to prove that artists are not historians.

He made the observation that when you see a painting of an angel appearing to Mary, a window at the back looks like a French chateau which could not have existed in Nazareth.

A chateau is a manor house or where a Lord resides and because a window resembles a chateau in a painting that is supposed to depict the biblical Nazareth, it is likely that the artist that made the painting is a poor student of history.

Geoffrey is of the opinion that artists are not historians (or good students of history) because of the blatant error of putting a French chateau in a painting of Nazareth.
