Actually, the answer you´re looking for would be ¨They did not realize they were being watched¨ If you read very carefully, you´ll notice that the lines from the passage never mention anything about the humans knowing they were being watched and did not mind. Also, the very first line if the entire thing says, ¨No one would have believed in the last years if the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly...¨ Which would imply that they were not aware that they were being watched during that time.

I hope this helps!! :)

This line implies that humans, have been created in a sort of synthetic environment. Humans in this case, are now the most intellegent beings on the known universe, they have been monitored, similar to test subjects. These people/ this race, is more intelligent than man, and humans have been in an experiment this whole time. 

Hope this helps.

tigry1 [53]

he poem begins with the Wanderer asking the Lord for understanding and compassion during his exile at sea. He cannot avoid going to sea, however, because this life is his fate.

The Wanderer goes on to recall the hardships he has faced in his life, like watching his kinsmen be ruined and even slaughtered. He knows that while he is lonely and isolated, he will think about these things constantly. There is no living person with whom the Wanderer can share what is in his heart. He knows that it is dignified for a man to keep his feelings to himself. He then argues that no matter how hard a man tries to contain his emotions, he can never avoid his fate. An ambitious man can conceal his sorrowful heart, but he cannot escape it.

The Wanderer returns to his own example. His kind lord died of old age and as a result, the Wanderer has been exiled from his country. He left home with the coldness of winter in his heart and sailed the rough waves in search of a new lord. He was friendless, yearning for the comforts and pleasures of a new mead-hall, but found none.

The Wanderer relates his tale to his readers, claiming that those who have experienced exile will understand how cruel loneliness can feel. The Wanderer is freezing cold, remembering the grand halls where he rejoiced, the treasure he was given, and the graciousness of his lord. All of these joys have now disappeared. He claims that any man who stops receiving the wisdom of his lord will be filled with a similar sadness. Even when he sleeps, this lord-less man dreams of happier days when he could lay his hands and head upon his lord's knees. When he awakens, the lonely man will be forced to face his friendless reality, surrounded by the dark waves, frost, and snow. The rich happiness of a man's dreams make his solitude even more miserable. He will imagine the faces of his kinsmen and greet them joyfully with song, but alas, the memories are transient. A seaman's spirit goes through these bouts of agony every time he finds himself alone, which makes his overall sorrow more acute.

The Wanderer then goes on to contemplate how lords are frequently forced out of their halls and away from their kingdoms. He questions why he feels so unhappy when comparatively, the tribulations lords face are usually much more severe. He then realizes that the world is constantly fluctuating and a man's life experiences, good and bad, are ultimately what make him wise. The Wanderer lists the lessons that he has learned; that a wise man must not be hasty in speech, rash or fickle in battle, and he must not be nervous, greedy, or boastful. A wise man must not boast until he is free of doubt. A wise man must accept that riches fade, buildings fall, lords die, and their followers die or disperse. The Wanderer offers a few examples of the latter, citing men who died in battle, men who drowned, one man who who was carried off by a bird, and another who was killed by a wolf.

What’s the answer to question 17?
VARVARA [1.3K]
The answer is B. "If you don't mind," asked the student, "could we meet briefly after class today?"

If I was speaking to you without using quotation marks, I would say this to you, and it would be grammatically correct: If you don't mind, could we meet briefly after class today? 

If you decide to quote somebody and place the name tag (asked the student) in between the sentence, you are going to want to remember that both times you use punctuation will be a comma. The first comma will never change unless it is a special circumstance. If I said to you instead: I like dogs. It would look like this:

"I like dogs," ojmichael said. 

You are always going to want to end those with a comma and not a period. Now, the times when you are allowed to use a period will be like this. If you want to quote somebody without identifying who said, such as if two characters are back-and-forth arguing without any need for identification, and you're just trying to set a scene? It's going to look like this:

"I hate you, Lance."

"Shut up, Keith." 

You do not end those with a comma unless you are going to specify who said what. If you did specify, it would change to a comma and then look like this:

"I hate you, Lance," Keith said.

"Shut up, Keith," Lance replied.

Another special case would be if your character performed an action after they spoke, and you did not choose to specify who specifically said it or how they did. I will take "Shut up, Keith" to show you.

"Shut up, Keith." Lance tilted his head back out of annoyance.

If you chose to write something like that, you would not use a comma because you have chosen here not to specify anything with a dialogue tag.

Now, when you split a sentence in half, it would look like this:

"Keith," he said, "she doesn't like you." 

The reason this looks the way it does is because if I spoke to you without quotation marks and said: Keith, she doesn't like you, would I capitalize the "she?" (and if you see here, I placed the question mark within the quotations, even though I was not quoting she with a question mark. This is just how you are supposed to place punctuation). Because you would not capitalize the she normally, you would not capitalize the she while splitting the sentence. That is why it will never be:

"Keith," he said, "She doesn't like you." 

That is wrong, wrong, wrong. You also do not capitalize the dialogue tag UNLESS it is a proper noun like a person's name. If you would not capitalize the word 'he' in the middle of a sentence, you would not capitalize it in the middle of a quotation. 

The reason, now, that your actual answer to the question you asked is like this:

"If you don't mind," asked the student, "could we meet briefly after class today?"

The reason there is a comma again after the dialogue tag is because you have just interrupted a sentence. You have made the conscious decision to break up the sentence into fragments of the original, and therefore, a comma signals a continuation. If you were not splitting the sentence and you said something like "I like dogs." but, then you also decided to add on, "Though, they're kind of messy." after performing an action, it would look like this:

"I like dogs," she said, messing with her hair. "Though, they're kind of messy."

You would end up placing a period after the action, signifying a more permanent pause. The unnamed she has decided to stop talking to mess with her hair. She then chose to continue on.
