explain whether or not there are absolute answers to moral questions (such as "what does it mean to be a good person"). In other
Over [174]

Answer:

To be a good person means a lot to you and others around you. A good person can be reliable, trusted, honest and truthful.

In that case the first person is right, because is you lie to spare others feelings you may still hurt or disturb others feelings. In other words, others may not trust in you anymore and can term you as a bad person, and this may disturb your own feeling.

It burns with topaz light. Identify the figure of speech
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

Alliteration has same starting consonants. Ex. "Shelly sold seashells down by the seashore." Notice the majority of the word start with S.

Personification is humanizing something. Ex.  "Lightning danced across the sky." Humans dance and here we are comparing the movement of lightning to the movement of dancing people.

Metaphors are comparisons of two things, non living.

"She has a heart of gold", its just a figure of speech because people cannot have hearts of gold, just like the the "it" cannot actually burn with topaz light because topaz does not actually have a light.

Which statement best expresses the central idea of the text ( the puzzle of altruism)
DerKrebs [107]

The puzzle of altruism is best stated in the opening line that wonders if altruism does opposite of what it means to.

Explanation:

Altruism is a murky territory. It is one of the core values of humanity in the modern sense in that the people acknowledge that there is a need to give back to less fortunate ones if one is in fact, fortunate.

But then again, there is a thing that the altruism may only lead to more altruism and not actual independence from the need of altruism as it does not build, it merely provides.

Thus, until there is a way to use such altruism effectively this will be an issue pervading them.

The Handicapper General's agents enforce the equality laws, forcing citizens to wear "handicaps": masks for those who are too beautiful, loud radios that disrupt thoughts inside the ears of intelligent people, and heavy weights for the strong or athletic.
