In The Autobiography by Benjamin Franklin, which virtue is most difficult for Benjamin Franklin to master? temperance frugality
Schach [20]

Answer: order

Benjamin Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. He was an author, political theorist, printer, politician, scientist, inventor, statesman and diplomat.

In his autobiography, Franklin describes his attempt at self-betterment. He adopted thirteen virtues (temperance, silence, order, resolution, frugality, industry, sincerity, justice, moderation, cleanliness, tranquility, chastity, and humility), and attempted to improve one per week. He argued that the most difficult one for him was order, because his good memory made it unnecessary. However, this meant he worked harder at it, and he kept a daily planner to help him acquire it.

pishuonlain [190]

Increasing demand for flat-screen TVs, according to estimates, could have a greater impact on global warming than the world's largest coal-fired power plants. Flat screen manufacturers use a greenhouse gas known as nitrogen trifluroide, and as these displays are becoming more and more popular, annual gas production has grown to about four thousand tons. Nitrogen trifluroid is the most dangerous global warming engine, for comparison, this gas is 17,000 times stronger than carbon dioxide.

Why does the author choose to characterize the Whites' visitor as a military officer returned from service in India?
dimulka [17.4K]

This question is about "The Monkey’s Paw"

Answer:

To emphasize the mystical power of the rabbit's paw, as there are many legends about animals and mysticism in India.

Explanation:

India is a land with many legends and many stories involving mysticism and animals. This was built mainly due to the cultural and religious characteristics of India that ended up creating a stereotype about the "magical" objects that are created there. Thus, when the author places the Whites visitor as a military man who was in India and brought with him a magical object, the author imposes credibility on that object and on the visitor's words.
