There is indeed another custom, which I cannot altogether approve of: when the king has a mind to put any of his nobles to death

in a gentle indulgent manner, he commands to have the floor strewn with a certain brown powder of a deadly composition, which being licked up, infallibly kills him in twenty-four hours.
Which setting does the passage above indicate?

the moments between meals in the king’s home

a peaceful afternoon at the home of a noble

the time of execution in the king’s palace

a calm day at a dirt-covered park

The answer to this question is "the time of execution of the king's palace". In the given passage, part of their custom, when somebody commits an unforgivable crime, he will be punished with death. Although, the King does not like this kind of scene on his palace he needs to follow what is needed. He then commanded his men to clean the floor and spread the powder which will be caused to the person after licking it in 24 hours. This kind of death is gentle.

Are cellphone games harmful to a child's well-being development​
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

it depends on the game. I'd be fine to let my future child play angry birds or something but I wouldn't let him play cod mobile or any of those sniper games until hes older. I've seen the way kids cry and scream and totally just freak out over fortnite or cod and dont want that happening until hes older and more mature. Personally I grew up with angry birds and minecraft lite and didn't really get mad or cry if things didnt go my way. I'd say most cell phone games aren't that harmful

Conspiracy theories were always irrational ideas without evidence that’s what a “theory” is so if you have proof you have to have the dates, witnesses, because anyone can fake a video or picture with the help of video editing. Though many people use the term debunk to infer that they have falsified an idea, over the years, it has become less rational an endeavor. Today many debunkers are actually pseudo-skeptics. Instead of considering an idea and trying to falsify it, many debunkers just assume science is on their side and instead try to a priori dismiss the idea, and worse to discredit the person who proposes the idea. That is not rational skepticism or critical thinking. Debunking isn’t always falsification or refutation but as often as not just name-calling and denial.
Answer

Since anything can be called a conspiracy theory, and since debunking can be achieved by put-downs and shaming; any idea you don’t like, you call a conspiracy theory and its proponent a conspiracist, and then contemptuously mock the idea and the person who advocates it. Easy-peezy-debunky-sleazy.

‘These days, there is no point in travelling to see the world: we can see it all on TV or on the Internet.’
Rama09 [41]

Some ideas you can use for the beginning of your text are the Tv and the internet give you access to cultures and this is cheaper than traveling; while some ideas you can use for counterarguments are that you need to travel to have some experiences and information on Tv or internet might be incorrect.

<h3 /><h3>What does this prompt require you to do?</h3>

In this prompt you are required to write a complete article considering three main points:

  • Beginning: Points that support the idea "These days, there is no point in traveling to see the world".
  • Middle: Points that contradict the main idea.
  • Conclusion: Ideas that wrap up the text.

<h3>What do I write in the beginning section?</h3>

Some ideas and reasons to support the main point or thesis are:

  • Traveling is not necessary because through Tv or the Internet you can know about the art, food, music, etc. of many cultures around the world.
  • Traveling is not necessary because the Tv and the Internet give you free access to other cultures, this means this is a cheaper way of knowing other cultures.

<h3>What do I write in the middle section?</h3>

Some counterarguments are:

  • Travelling gives you unique experiences such as trying local food that are not possible through the Tv or the internet.
  • While you can find information on Tv or the internet about a specific culture this information might be inaccurate or far from reality.

<h3>How do I conclude my text?</h3>

To conclude your text restate the main idea, for example you can say even if travelling has some advantages, it is not completely necessary because through Tv and the internet you can know enough about cultures in other regions of the world.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question.
laiz [17]

In the "House Divided" speech, Abraham Lincoln makes a prediction about the government of the United States. He tells us that he believes the country is unable to survive division. It cannot go on with half of the country accepting slavery and the other half outlawing it. Therefore, he predicts the country has to settle on one or the other.

Lincoln tells us that this debate is similar to the process that riders have before mounting a horse. He states that some riders pat and pet the horse because they are scared the horse might "give them a fall." However, he argues that this is a pointless and futile pursuit, much like that of defending slavery. The purpose of the analogy is to present, in simple terms, what the role of slavery should be in the Union, and how the effort to preserve it is bound to fail.
