Why is it ironic Layeville is trapped in a pendulum labeled "The Prisoner of Time"?

English
1 answer:
White raven [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The Irony stems fromthe fact that Layeville had attempted the invention of a Time Travel Machine which in essence liberates man from the constant repeated continuum of having to live out his life in the presence without any ability to go back to the past or visit the future.

The time machine was meant to free man from time.

His efforts was an astronomic failure as the invention went belly up killing the countrys 30 best scientists in one go before an audience who had gathered to view the  unveiling and public trial of the time travel machine.

As a punishment, the city build a life size version of the machine which contained a clock and a pendulum as a prison for him. Thus, Layeville, the scientist who sought to free himself from time became ironically but literarily trapped in a giant clock in the full glare of the city.

Cheers!

Describe the four ways the educational setting can be adapted to meet the needs of children with disabilities.
Alexandra [31]

It varies greatly depending on the type of the disabilty - you might be talking about wheelchair users, or about partially deaf pupils...

all in all, the main point is to:

- access: ramps, doors, drinking fountains and even the space inside of the classroom need to be adapted to the kid with special needs.

- teaching method: since they cannot participate at certain activities due to their limitations, these ones also need to adapt so the substance of the topic will be succesfully transmited to the kid as well.

- environment awareness: another difficulty that kids with disabilities might face is the acceptance of their condition by their collegues. An official way to separately teach the interested ones about how to properly treat these kids would help. Charts and Informative Papers around the school could also improve the approach

- exclusive activities: once all kids with special needs are gathered at the same place, they can all enjoy the same type of activity without hypothetical jugdemental thought from their collegues behalf, therefore, this could improve their sense of importance by receiving special attention.


Well, hope this helps =)

Hound is to dog as Siamese is to _______
Alla [95]
The blank should be filled with "cat". In other analogies, Siamese may be to Thailand, since it refers to the Thailand language, but in this particular analogy, the creator purposefully included hound is to dog before it, making the solver think of another pet, in which case can only be referring to the Siamese cat.
