According to "The Veldt" by Ray BradBury...
Answer to the First Question: Assuming the inflated value of $9 still applies to the time of this answer, today the Happylife Home System would have a price of $270,000 dollars, since:
30,000 x 9 = 270,000
Answer to the Second Question: There would be a market for this system as long as the governments approve of the risks implicated.
Anyone aware of the system's capabilites would not think twice about purchasing one - provided they could afford it -. The fact that a machine could do any chore of daily life, as well as provide simulated entertainment with no boundaries is simply irresistible to anyone. <u>The benefits are worth the price.</u>
The customers would not worry about the dangers at first; they would consider themselves responsible enough to manage a balanced life of luxuries.
Answer:
D) The Lesser Nuthatch, a bird known to be widespread in the forests of the Kamchatka Peninsula, is very similar to the Banded Nuthatch in appearance
Explanation:
All over the world, plants and animals do tend to have similarity among same group. This is part of the reasons why some animals with similar resemblances tends to be classified under same class under the classification of animals. Despite the fact that there is an established point of the nuthatch bird being extinct in the 19th century, the claim that the ornithologist being wrong in sighting the nuthatch could be weaked if the birds happens to be <u>the Lesser Nuthatch.</u>
This could be the fact that<u> Lesser Nuthatch birds is a sub-class in the Nuthatch bird family just as rice and millet being in same grain family under the plants classification (but different under class).</u>
Answer:
D) The ending is ambiguous
Explanation:
It is not known whether the princess's lover opened the door to be devoured by the tiger or the door to the lady he shall wed.
The narrator lets the reader interpret how the story ends with questions such as, "Now, the point of the story is this: Did the tiger come out of that door, or did the lady?" and "And so I leave it with all of you: Which came out of the opened door, --the lady, or the tiger?"
I hope this helped :)
