Answer:

The correct answer is Ask yourself which sentence is the topic sentence.

Explanation:

One of the main methods to identify supporting details is to be able <u>to recognize the main idea of the text.</u> This is essential to understand what the author meant.

You can follow three steps to identify them:

  • Identify the topic: To achieve this, you must ask yourself <em>"What is the text about?" </em>
  • Identify the idea the author wants to convey: To achieve this, you must ask yourself <em>"What does the author wants me to know about the subject?"</em>
  • Identify the details that support the author's main idea: To achieve this you must take the answer obtained by asking “What is the text about?”, and add it to the answer obtained from the question “What does the author want to know about the topic? “ And then find a phrase in the text that best matches those answers.

Though these myths are very different on the surface, they contain many similar elements that cut across cultures and societies.
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

A short essay on the similarities between myths explaining the emergence and existence of human beings.

Explanation:

In this world, it is normal for human beings to wonder about the existence of human beings, and try to establish philosophies to try and construct the origin of man and development to the present modern man.

  • Some of the popular myths are ;
  •  Iroquois Creation Myth
  • Australian Aborigine Creation Myth
  • African Bushmen Creation Myth
  • Hebrew/Christian Creation Myth
  • Greek Creation Myth
  • Creation theory
  • Evolution theory.

creation theory

In the creation theory, it is believed that life began above the earth and depicts an unexplained existence of a supreme being who took 7 days to create the universe and all in it through word of mouth. It also explains that human beings once lived in peace with animals above the earth and, when human beings sinned, they were ejected onto the earth, which was one of God's formations.

African bushmen creation myth

It states that there existed a supreme being by the name of Lord Kaang. He lived beneath the earth. He created a tree that spread across the entire territory and started digging a hole across that extended to what is the present earth. He then sat on the edge of the hole and, from the hole came a woman. Later all the people had come out and gathered under the tree. Previously Lord Kaang had furnished the earth and now the people and animals gathered under the tree where he instructed them not to create a fire since it would cause a great calamity. He then moved to a secret position where he could watch his creation. When the day was over they started feeling cold and lit a fire, they could not see too. Unlike the animals, they could see and had fur hence they could not feel the cold. They fled to caves. The animals started fearing human beings and could no longer live together because of a communication breakdown.

The examples above are among many more myths but show a rough idea of what has been thought over time.

Similarities between various theories.

All have a supreme human being

All show punitive measures put in place by the supreme being

All depict a human being who is very insecure and breaks the laws to meet what they thought was a necessity in their existence.

Finally, all depict an anonymous location where the supreme being conducted the first creation from.

In line 6, Annie says she “just escaped the whitewashed, brick-walled, iron-gated prison that is commonly known as middle school
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

A. Critical

Explanation:

Annie uses the words "iron-gated prison" to describe the middle school. Obviously, middle schools are not literally prisons, but when described as prisons, one can believe that Annie truly felt as if the institution limited her freedom and kept her "chained" to schoolwork.

With this kind of attitude toward school, it would only be natural for the answer to have something to do with dislike.

B) Annie doesn't feel hesitant (which means cautious) because she clearly expresses her thoughts very bluntly.

C) She is definitely not regretful because she's glad to have "escaped" from the school.

D) If Annie is not regretful, then she cannot be devastated (which, in this scenario, is basically just a more extreme version of regretful).

Thus, the answer is A (critical) because she's very keen on pointing out the negative aspects of the school.

Hope this helps!
