Marlow a seamen, was out of job for a certain period. He needed a ship but got nothing. He got appointed quite smoothly owing two things : his aunt's relations in the higher administration and the murder one of the ship's captain in Congo. Marlow calls the land of the Congo " prehistoric" and he considered himself among the first of man taking possession of an accursed inheritance.

Marlow exposes the bitterness of American life .

the anger of unstirred of the white men that killed them without any resort. The black peoples escaping the invading whites and in doing so, they were being slaughtered either by hunger or they were being caught by the "civilized" white man that yoked them for drudgery.

Which concept best explains the comparison made in the passage regarding Internet responses, face-to-face interviews, and teleph

Sati [7]

Answer:

C). Social desirability.

Explanation:

Social desirability is demonstrated as the kind of response bias in which the respondents' tendency of answering questions in a particular manner is considered advantageous by others.

In the second paragraph, the last statement explains how research proposes how 'the response over the internet is advantageous over other types of telephonic surveys or direct(face-to-face) interviews. The respondents are likely to provide socially admissible and authentic answers regarding sensitive topics like weight more during a telephonic or face-to-face interview than on internet. This shows the comparison aptly and the difference in social desirability on internet responses and the other responses. Thus, option C is the correct answer.

What is the theme of the poem "I Rang the Bells" by Edward Hirsch and what do the last 3 lines mean?

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

I Rang the Bell

by

Edward Hirsch

I rang the bell

to the past

and the owner let me in

so I could climb

seven steps

and stand in the doorway

of a narrowness

that was once my room

on the second floor

of a split-level house

on the corner

of a suburban development

in the village

of my adolescence

and time bent me back

to that fitful night

when I tried to scale

the rusty stairs

of a freight train rolling

out of control in the yard

so I could set the brakes

and stop the runaway

dead in his tracks

but instead

I pulled a bookcase

down on my body

and woke up

startled

to find my parents

frightened in the hallway

and my books— 

or was it my future?— 

scattered on the floor.

The poem has a theme of regret.

The last three lines shows that while he failed to change the past and woke up in the present, he wasn't sure if his future was still certain.

Explanation:

From the poem, the boy went back to a period of sadness in his past to try and correct his mistakes.

This is evidenced here

"and time bent me back

to that fitful night

when I tried to scale

the rusty stairs

of a freight train rolling

out of control in the yard

so I could set the brakes

and stop the runaway

dead in his tracks "

Unfortunately for him, he is unable to change the past and he is filled with regret.
