Read the excerpt from Chapter 28 of Moby-Dic. It had previously come to me that this ivory leg had at sea been fashioned from th

e polished bone of the sperm whale’s jaw. How is the fact that Ahab’s leg is made from whale bone significant to the novel’s theme of man versus nature? It signifies that Ahab has pitted himself against nature in an effort to dominate it. It signifies that Ahab lives a life in harmony with the natural world. It signifies that Ahab has made a choice to surrender to the power of the whales he hunts. It signifies that Ahab see himself as an equal and dependent part of a greater whole.

Orlov [11]

The quotation from the passage that best describe President Ronald Reagan message is “‘Es gibt nur ein Berlin.’ [There is only one Berlin.]”.

Because the “Tear Down This Wall” speech was about his thoughts of the need of ending the segregation of Germany, which was divided by the wall and kept guarded by armed men from Soviet Union. He said “in Berlin where the wall emerges most clearly” it shows the marks of this brutal division that was preventing men from living freedom fully.

Which example best supports the idea that Vandross is respected by his peers? A. several tribute CDs were released in his honor
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

A. Several tribute CDs were released in his honor.

Explanation:

For a singer, the act of someone making a tribute album is one thoughtful and respectful way of paying tribute to the original person. Paying tributes shows the respect and love one has for another.

So, Luther Vandross may have died but his work, inspiration, and importance are nevertheless still alive. After his death, several tribute albums were released in his honor. That tribute album is not something trivial, for it included the likes of <em>"Stevie Wonder, Mary J. Blige, Usher, Alicia Keys, Beyoncé, Elton John, and John Legend"</em>, big stars in the music industry. This shows how Vandross may have been so important and respected in the music industry.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
