Read the passage from "The City Without Us" by Alan Weisman:

English
1 answer:
BaLLatris [955]3 years ago
4 0

The ideas discussed in the passage are

C. Nature can destroy creations that were thought indestructible; humans aren't as powerful as the forces of nature.

Explanation:

The passage given here is principally concerned with the nature of the power of nature over humans. In that, the nature can and will be superior over whatever the human power will achieve as it can make it erode and wither away.

Even the things that the humans would think would be indestructible are fairly easy to collapse and to destroy.

So the permanence of the human power over nature is disputed here in the two concurrent ideas of the destructibility of everything and nature's dominion over humans.

In general terms, a personality disorder means that the person doesn't get things the same way we usually do, in other words, that person has a rigid and unhealthy pattern of thinking, functioning and behaving.

That said, some of the - let's say - symthoms can be: a pervasive distrust and suspicion of others and their motives , unjustified belief that others are trying to harm or deceive him, suspicion of the loyalty or trustworthiness of others , hesitancy to confide in others due to unreasonable fear that others will use the information against him/her, among several other things according to the type of disorder, which they are several, and with proper care; they might become a tool eventually, I wouldn´t say they are pros per se.

What can an author do to promote <br> a readers suspension of disbelief
otez555 [7]

Answer:

The correct use of images, symbols and word play will be vital to create, and promote, a readers suspension and disbelief. These images, the environment of suspense created by them, and the words used by a writer, will enhance this suspension and this disbelief. In literature this is vital as it is one way in which a writer will be able to maintain a reader´s interest in the story. Without this, the emotional and sensible part of the reader will not be engaged and soon interest will fall. But through the use of suspensful words, and images, as well as the use of symbols that create a sense of wonder, and leave the reader wishing for more, the writer promotes that sense of suspension and disbelief.
