Answer:

a. "Why won’t you look me in the eye when I am talking to you!"

Explanation:

In sociology, the term ethnocentrism refers to the phenomenon by which we measure other cultures based in the standards that we use in our own culture and therefore <u>this stops us from understanding other culture's norms and traditions.</u> In other words, we look at the world through the perspective of our own culture.

In this example, the option that has to do with judging one person based on the norms of our own culture would be a. "Why won’t you look me in the eye when I am talking to you!" since <u>in some cultures, looking to one person in the eye is considered a disrespectful sign </u>and <u>this person is judging the other one and getting upset because the other person is not looking at him/her in the eye when it's probably because of the different cultures they belong to. </u>

4) I would visit the Nile River because it is the only river that flows north instead of south and it is the longest river in the world. I would also visit the Sahara Desert because it is the largest hot desert in the world and is home to beautiful animals such as antelopes and gazelles. Both feature are beautiful, unique and has an important role in shaping the society of countries in Africa.

5) In todays modern-day the invention that would have a similar influence would be the alphabet because the people in the Song dynasty used this as their way for writing down Chinese language and since in todays modern world we have the alphabet so it all works.

6) The mining of Gold and Planting of cotton does have a positive yet negative impact. The mining of gold and the planting of cotton makes the country wealthier due to the high demand in the international market while on the other hand, mining of Gold and the plantation of cotton needs a clean piece of land so that the vegetation must be removed around the mining site as well as the cotton crop which destroys the habitat of organisms and effects the ecosystem.

How did the growth of trade change the feudal system?
brilliants [131]
In the medieval times, AKA the feudal system trade was very high because it was needed to get goods the kingdoms were more like places you were forced to live and without trade, you would never get food or clothes. You made less than a penny a day this could pay for a loaf of bread at the end of the week you got one pair of shoes a year and 2 pairs of clothes. When the trade went up it eventually ratified the need for all the work in the kingdoms.
