Industrial Revolution refers to the explosion of manufacturing involving new technology and new energy resources, in the late 18th centrury.
Explanation:
The industrial revolution was a watershed event in the history of mankind. The revolution started in Great Britain and was not instantaneous as is thought to be, but a continuous period of innovations, inventions and discoveries.
The period saw humans initially harnessing the animal power for performing work (e.g. mule, horses) which later changed into steam and then fossils (e.g. coal). The period also saw the establishment of industries which has breakthrough over the earlier practice of workers working in their homes.
Textiles were at the foremost in utilising the opportunity provided by the Industrial revolution and perpetuating the colonialism in colonised countries (e.g. as in India)
Answer:
The author means that now the tools are more important that the message itself.
Explanation:
The excerpt belongs to Small Change: Why the Revolution Won't Be Tweeted, an article written by Malcolm Gladwell, a Canadian journalist and writer. There, he discusses the impact of social media and other new tools in different movements across the world.
In this sentence, Gladwell means that the vehicle the message uses to travel is more important than the message itself. He uses as an example the case of Iran, where people got enough courage to uprise because of social media like Twitter. Even though it is an interesting idea, I don't totally agree with this. I think how the message travels is important, otherwise it could be really important but sterile. There's where the tools take more relevance; sometimes, due to different factors, the tools are faster and more efficient to use communication, but if the message is not relevant, then there are no good reasons to use the tools.
If you describe someone as nonchalant, you mean that they appear not to worry or care about things and that they seem very calm.
For example: Clark's mother is nonchalant about her role in her son's latest work.
Denis tried to look nonchalant and uninterested.
But tremulous is something that is caused by nervousness or shakiness.
So instead of someone being nervous they would be very calm.

Looking back, I now see that Pebbles never gave up, he never lost hope after I had gotten him, he hadn’t lost his hope even when he was going through pain. He was strong and he made me realize that you should never give up hope when you most want to.
