Answer:

C) It is necessary to question authority.

Explanation:

The <u>theme</u> of a story refers to the central message or life lesson (not directly stated) that the story conveys or teaches about a topic and that could be applied to other literary works or to our own lives.

In the excerpt, one of the themes may be "It is necessary to question authority", as it is about a storyteller, which it's the aunt and the figure of authority in the room too, that tells a story to younger people. However, the audience finds the story uninteresting and, to a point, lacking common sense. Seeing this, one of the little girls in the audience decided to question what was being said. To which the aunt responded "lamely," which suggests that the aunt wasn't even convinced of what she was telling. Either way, the story teaches us that not because someone is in a position of authority, we must agree or accept what he or she says regardless of what is being said, in other words, it is necessary to question authority.

Why do many historians regard the printing press as the most important invention of the past millennium? [ Please be completely

Olenka [21]

Answer:

Many historians consider the printing press as the most important invention in history because from its creation it allowed the development and expansion of knowledge through the printing of books. Until that moment, knowledge, science and other theories that generated technological, economic, political and social development could not be broadly transmitted, because the books were written by hand by the monks, who exercised a kind of censorship over any question that was against religious principles.

For this reason, the printing press removed the monopoly on knowledge from religion, while increasing the ease of transmitting said knowledge, exponentially increasing the speed of human development.
