Why can’t we trust our observation and perception? One paragraph please

English
1 answer:
zhenek [66]3 years ago
8 0

It is important to understand the difference between observation and perception.

Perception is what we BELIEVE we see, whilst observation is factually, and legitimately what we see.

The problem with relying on our perceptions of certain things is that we tend to attempt to come up with our own conclusions for the purpose of fulfilling our curiosities, it's only human nature to do so however it is incomparable to a hypothesis, or prediction.

I hope this helped, it's a little short so my apologies

liraira [26]

Answer:

Musical lyrics.

Explanation:

"The Great Wave", a famous painting of a seascape with Mt. Fiji in the background was done by Hokusai, a Japanese painter. This painting reflected the newly emerging nation of Japan and how it is 'coming' into the world.

When Neil MacGregor presented this painting to the audience in Japan, the director of London's British Museum presents how this painting came to emerge. He also focused on how the Asian nation 'grew' slowly while the world is occupied with 'wars'. And in his rhythmic presentation, MacGregor used a musical lyric as his outside source.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

What can be inferred from this excerpt from Oliver Twist by Charles dickens?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

A. Workhouse authorities were extremely careless in their duties

This is because the passage doesn't say anything about children being weak due to poor nourishment nor parishioners wrongly criticizing their own officials, and if the legal system carefully monitored parish affairs then children wouldn't be getting scalded to death or overlooked.

Select all the words that form the independent clause in the sentence. The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The words that form the independent clause in the sentence "The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious." are: The movie was hilarious.

Explanation:

There are two types of clauses:

  • Independent clauses: they can stand on their own. That is to say, that they make sense when we read them. There is no need for extra information to understand the meaning.
  • Dependent clauses: they can not stand on their own. In other words, they depend on another clause, which gives the necessary information to understand the meaning of the dependant clause.

Both types of clauses consist mainly of a subject and a verb, they are separated by commas, or they have subordinating conjunction at the beginning of the clause.

In this case, the clause between commas (which we watched yesterday) is the dependant clause. I can not fully understand the meaning of it when reading only that clause since information is missing. The clause The movie was hilarious is the independent clause because it can stand on its own.
