As such, the mafia is a counterculture.
Take into consideration the counterculture of the 60s - the hippie culture who opposed wars and fought the government in a peaceful way. They wanted to change the society for the better by opposing those in power. Mafia, on the other hand, opposes the entire society, but is still an example of counterculture.

Prepared speech about beliefs in my Culture​
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Culture is the total way of life that people in the society are blessed with. Culture is the characteristics of a particular group of people, defined by everything from language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts. Through culture we are governed by norms and customs, which are the pillars of any society. If these pillars are not properly followed in our society, our culture will resemble a perfume with no smell. It’s a gradual existence of presenting those norms and customs to people who surround us through music, dances, arts, crafts, food, dressing style, languages just to mention a few.

As you read the paragraph below, think about what conclusions you can draw based on
kondor19780726 [428]

The correct answer is B. President Truman was under intense pressure from the very beginning of his term of office.

Explanation

The excerpt begins with the subject of President Truman's decision to drop the atomic bomb. However, he later expands on this issue by arguing that after suddenly assuming the presidency after the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt, he had a lot of pressure, mainly because of the handling that he should have given to the issues related to the postwar period. For this reason, it can be concluded that the main purpose of this fragment about the early years of his presidency is to expose the pressure that Harry Truman had on his shoulders despite having a group of advisers, he had to assume the responsibility of being president, and all the consequences that this would bring him including the decision to use the atomic bomb. So the correct answer is B. President Truman was under intense pressure from the very beginning of his term of office.

Identify the tense of the italicized verb in the sentence below.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Present perfect

Explanation:

The tense of the italicized verb 'have moved' would be present perfect as it denotes a past event/action having its present consequences. <u>Present perfect tense primarily functions to express the actions that took place before now at an unspecified time</u>. It combines the present(through use of 'have') and past(by showing perfection or completion of the action 'moved') and that's how it signals the association between the past and the present. Thus, <em>the use of 'have' followed by past participle signals that present perfect tense is employed in the sentence</em>.
