Answer:

I will resist the urge to stay out late and go home before midnight is the correct.

Explanation:

Using the dictionary entry that's provided in the question, the first option is correct, since the word <em>resist</em> is being misused.

In the second one, the word <em>resist</em> is misused too, since the sense of the sentence might be <em>help</em>.

The third option is also incorrect since the word <em>resist</em> is a verb and in the sentence is not used this way.

The last option is the correct answer because it gives the idea that the speaker <u>attempts to counter the actions or effects</u> of staying out late.

By studying the historical context of a story you can better understand
s344n2d4d5 [400]
I think D is the best answer choice. for a work written around the time of the salem witch trials, you can better understand why extreme fear and condemnation of witchcraft might show up, and the author's purpose is a major thing to understand a work. C doesn't really make sense, because historical context is based on facts, so the context doesn't so much help you understand an author's attitude/opinion. B is true to some degree, but D is still a stronger answer as B is somewhat circular; historical context is an inherent part of a historical character? and A doesn't even make sense to me but i personally would go with D

Answer:

the last option: Potatoes are my favorite vegetable because they can be eaten in so many delicious ways such as fried, mashed with butter, and baked with cheese and bacon.

When general semanticists use the expression, "the map is not the territory," to which language barrier are they referring?
mario62 [17]

The expression<em> "the map is not the territory", </em>was first said by the Polish scientist, <em>Alfred Korzybski.</em>

It is a metaphor. There is the reality of something (as perceived by the senses).  And there are labels, symbols, abstraction of that reality created by the mind/thought for the sake  of convenience, communication, or to make undersanding easier. We are often looking at maps rather than the territory, without realising it. Mind is an expert at doing this.

Korzybski held that many people do confuse maps with territories, that is, confuse models of reality with reality itself. In other words, the description of the thing is not the thing itself. The model is not reality.
