5Truly modern newspapers were not created, however, until after the invention of movable type. Movable type was a system of prin

ting that involved special type pieces. These were metal or ceramic “stampers” with the image of a letter or number. A press operator would arrange these type pieces to form words and sentences on a larger block. By coating the block with ink and pressing blank pages to it, the operator could make many copies of the words.
6Movable type was likely invented in Asia about a thousand years ago. However, Johannes Gutenberg made the earliest printing press, as we know it today, around 1450. These presses used movable type to create many pages of news faster and more easily than any other process. The information spread this way helped people discover new ideas about the world. It helped usher in the era of thought and learning known as the Renaissance.

What can the reader infer the author means when he says that newspapers were not truly modern until after the invention of movable type?
A) To be truly modern, newspapers must cost more than a simple gazetta and have a sizable subscription base.
B) To be truly modern, newspapers needed to be strictly about news and not contain opinions or advertisements.
C) A modern newspaper is printed many more times than previous newspapers--and still is relatively cheap to buy.
D) Modern newspapers have editorial staff and hires an army of reporters to investigate every case of legal wrong-doing.

Why does Curley attack Lennie? Look closely at the scene. At what point does Lennie react/defend himself? What’s the significanc
Bess [88]
Curley mistakenly thinks that Lennie is laughing at him with the other men, when, in fact, Lennie is not aware of the drama between Curley and Slim and is simply chuckling to himself with glee thinking about the dream farm. Curley, who has just been embarrassed in front of the workers, picks a fight with Lennie, thinking he'll earn some respect back by beating the much-larger Lennie. Lennie defends himself and attacks Curley only when George tells him to do so. In the scene, George says, "Get 'im, Lennie!" This moment feels very much like a master siccing his dog on someone. Lennie follows George's command and breaks nearly every bone in Curley's hand.

was humanity better off because it had fire and civilization or worse off because the cost was misery and disease
Marizza181 [45]

They were better off. Without the discovery of the uses of fire, mankind would not be here. Fire led to the rapid increase of newer, more advanced tech, such as a sword instead of a club.
