When the general, nursing his bruised shoulder, had gone, Rainsford took up his flight again. It was flight now, a desperate, ho

peless flight, that carried him on for some hours. Dusk came, then darkness, and still he pressed on. The ground grew softer under his moccasins; the vegetation grew ranker, denser; insects bit him savagely. Then, as he stepped forward, his foot sank into the ooze. He tried to wrench it back, but the muck sucked viciously at his foot as if it were a giant leech. With a violent effort, he tore his foot loose. He knew where he was now. Death Swamp and its quicksand.

Essay on inflation (350-450 words)
love history [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inflation is often defined in terms of its supposed causes. Inflation exists when money supply exceeds available goods and services. Or inflation is attributed to budget deficit financing. A deficit budget may be financed by additional money creation. But the situation of monetary expansion or budget deficit may not cause price level to rise. Hence the difficulty of defining ‘inflation’.

Inflation may be defined as ‘a sustained upward trend in the general level of prices’ and not the price of only one or two goods. G. Ackley defined inflation as ‘a persistent and appreciable rise in the general level or average of prices’. In other words, inflation is a state of rising price level, but not rise in the price level. It is not high prices but rising prices that constitute inflation.

Inflation may be caused by a variety of factors. Its intensity or pace may be different at different times. It may also be classified in accordance with the reactions of the government toward inflation.

Thus, one may observe different types of inflation in the contemporary society:

i. Currency Inflation

ii. Credit Inflation

iii. Deficit-Induced Inflation

iv. Demand-Pull Inflation

v. Cost-Push Inflation

Inflation is mainly caused by excess demand/or decline in aggregate supply or output. Former leads to a rightward shift of aggregate demand curve while the latter causes aggregate supply curve to shift leftward. Former is called demand-pull inflation (DPI) and the latter is called cost- push inflation (CPI).

Bali is a lovely Indonesian island and tropical paradise. It is a lush, green place, with rice fields and forest-covered mountai
sveta [45]

Answer: Hi! A useful summary of this passage would focus on D (the natural and man-made features of Bali).

Explanation: The paragraph shown isn't exploring enjoyable things to do in Bali. Secondly, descriptions of Bali's buildings, in particular, wouldn't be necessary if they could be summarized along with man-made and non-man-made features of Bali. Finally, some facts about traveling to Bali could be nice, but they are also not essential for summarizing the atmosphere of the landscapes Bali has to offer. Thus, D is the best answer.

I hope that this helps you out! Have a good day! :)
