adelina 88 [10]3 years ago
3 0

Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is:

With infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter.

What idea do the words little and serene suggest in this text?

The idea that humans crave challenges and activity

The idea that human size was insignificant to that of Martians

The idea that humans were insignificant and oblivious

The idea that humans were obsessed with small things

Answer:

The idea that humans were insignificant and oblivious

Explanation:

The words "little" and "serene" convey a sense of inferiority and lack of importance. They were used in the text to show that men and the actions provoked and carried out by them are unimportant, without depth. These men and their actions were insignificant and oblivious, they were so small that they did not cause any relevant circumstances and for that reason the men presented a serenity, since they knew that they were not provoking anything.

How did the bill of rights help define American freedom
ehidna [41]

Answer:

The Bill of Rights is the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution. It spells out Americans’ rights in relation to their government. It guarantees civil rights and liberties to the individual—like freedom of speech, press, and religion. It sets rules for due process of law and reserves all powers not delegated to the Federal Government to the people or the States. And it specifies that “the enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”
