English

Answer:

A. Fear is an emotional reaction to immediate danger, while anxiety is a longer-lasting state of distress

over anticipated threats.

Explanation:

The article "The Complexity of Fear" tries to give a more specific insight on difference between fear and anxiety, as well as their connections to phobias.

It has been long suggested that fear is a response to a real threat, while anxiety is a fearful response to a situation that doesn't pose a real threat, but is perceived as such.

This article gives a bit different view.

In paragraph 2, the fear is defined as ”...a reaction to something immediate that threatens your security or safety", while paragraph 3 defines anxiety as "...a general state of distress that is longer lasting than fear and usually is

triggered by something that is not specific..."

These definitions seem to go a bit deeper into exploring these emotions and suggest a bit detailed explanation of their origin.

If you were George Washington, how would you feel when you saw the corporal refuse to help his men?
valentinak56 [21]
If I were George Washington, and I saw the corporal refuse to help his men, I’d be filled with such rage and sadness. It would overcome my ability to stay put. The amount of disappointment I’d feel in those moments would nearly rip my heart out my chest. The corporals refusal to help his men had mentally abused me in every way. I am no longer George Washington, but a victim of mental abuse. It is within my reach and my power to overcome said abuse, but in all reality, am I ready to? Am I ready to overstep the lines and overcome the inability to feel happiness? Am I ready to step out of my comfort zone and step up for myself? I’m not sure. At this point, I do not control my life. I am nothing but a character in your story book. It is ultimately your decision wether you would like to keep reading or not. Ever since corporal has refused to help his men, my anger has filled skies, my tears have filled empty oceans, and my fear has brought back the dead. Viewing my life in an outsiders perspective, I see how much of a monster I’ve become. I’m watching my life fall apart right before my eyes. Me, being silly old George Washington, cannot do anything about it. My life is crumbling before my very eyes without a singular blink. Although, you may think I am overreacting, I am not. Everyday decisions impact everyday decisions. Watching corporal refuse to help his men, just proved my very point. There is no justice in this cruel world. All we can find is pain, misery, and ache. All we feel is sadness, disappointment, and anger.

If I were George Washington, and I saw the corporal refuse to help his men, I’d be filled with such rage and sadness.

just olya [345]
King was a minister criticized by clergymen, so he tried to justify his cause by paraphrasing the words of Thomas Aquinas, a notable interpreter of God's order on earth. He uses this allusion because he wants to underline the crucial difference between just and unjust law, that has been confirmed by one of the highest intellectual authorities in the fields of philosophy and religion. King provides a religious justification for the concept of nonviolent resistance.
