Discuss whether equality in hunter-gathering societies are of any relevance to 21st century society

English

ra1l [238]3 years ago

I would say that equality in hunter-gatherer societies has a huge implication for the modern world.

The hunter-gatherer societies were the "original" societies, to which the humans evolved and the finding that the societies were much more egalitarian (both in terms of gender equality and social class equality) means that people cannot claim that inequality is somehow "natural" - it supports the need for equality in the modern world.

ikadub [295]
Bradbury repeatedly uses the color gray to describe the parlor. He chooses this color to show the depressing nature of the parlor. He sees the viewing parlor as a way for people to turn off from experiencing life and the world around them. All the vibrancy of life is drained out.
In contrast when he talks about the park he uses the color green. Green symbolizes life, growth, vitality. He's showing that society has become dull and miserable inside their homes instead of alive and joyous in the world.

Match the lines in the poem with the themes they represent.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

<u>Answer:</u>

There passed, as a shroud  

A fleecy cloud,  

And I turned away to thee, - The night is changeable

I gazed awhile.  

On her cold smile;  

Too cold—too cold for me— - Moonlight can be uninviting

And dearer thy beam shall be;  

For joy to my heart  

Is the proud part

Thou bearest in Heaven at night, - Stars evoke wonder

<u>Explanation:</u>

In this poem, <u>"Evening Star" by Edgar Allen Poe</u>, a fleecy cloud passing by the moon at night changes the view of the speaker. His gaze falters and he turns away from the "cold smile" of the moon to look at the evening star. This could represent how the night is changeable in its views, how things are constantly moving and changing- every slight passing of a cloud, variation in the moonlight, appearance of the stars, their positions, etc. It could also represent how the changing night changed the speaker's gaze.

The speaker doesn't connect to moon well and calls her smile "cold", "too cold," and despite it being brighter than the stars, calls her moonlight "pale" and "lowly." He describes the moon as residing among her "slaves"- the planets, and presents the moon in an image of coldness and arrogance. Hence, moonlight, for him, is uninviting.

The speaker's heart is filled with joy when he looks at the evening star. He says that the beam of the star is "dearer" to him even if it is so far away. His affection towards it is all the more because of the distance, despite which its light reaches him, and the significant part the star has in the night sky or the "Heaven," according to him. He admires and prefers its "distant fire." All this adds to the sense of how the stars evoke wonder by the virtue of their light, distance, position and personal significance to the speaker.

CLOSE FRIENDS
Luden [163]

The question requires that we fill up the blank spaces with the correct words. Find the completed passage below:

  • British people have a reputation for being rather quiet and reserved. However, a new study has (1) <u>revealed</u>  that Britons are actually quite sociable and the (2) <u>average</u> person claims to have 14 close friends. Although a  minority of those questioned (3) <u>admitted</u> that they had no best friend, a quarter said that they had more than 18  close friends. Experts said that this is (4) <u>due</u> to changes in the way people (5) <u>spend</u> their free time. They are  now more (6) <u>likely</u> to invite friends to their homes or go out socializing than previous generations. The  increasing use of mobile phones and emails has also made it easier to (7) <u>keep up with</u> a greater number of friendships.  Men's relationships are not (8) <u>deep</u> though they tend to have more friends. Women, (9) <u>on the other hand</u> prefer to  have a small number of friends they can trust (10) <u>t</u><u>o</u><u>tally</u>, and with whom they can feel completely at (11) <u>ease</u>.  The idea that people in the north of England are more neighborly than those in the south seems to be backed  (12) <u>up</u> by the survey. However, despite having friends, it seems that family still (13) <u>plays</u> an important part  in most people's lives. When asked who they would (14) <u>turn</u> to for help if they were ill or had a problem, the  majority said that they would (15) <u>call</u> upon a relative first rather than a friend.

To correctly fill up the blank space, study the passage, and understand the context clues.

These clues will provide insight into the right verbs and prepositions to be fixed in the blank spaces.

Answer:

B. participles

Participles are words created from verbs, that are used as an adjective. For example, the word winning is a verb. But in this sentence, "The winning competitor wins the trophy." the word winning is used to describe someone and not necessarily just the action they have participated in.

What did Miss Spink give Coraline?
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Miss Spink gave her "a stone with a hole [that] went all the way through the middle of [it]. This stone helped her see through all things that were hidden by the "Other Mother".

Explanation:

Neil Gaiman's novella "Coraline" evolves around the story of Coraline and the parallel universe she discovered in her new home. And in that parallel universe, she has to fight an evil "Other Mother", the parallel character of her mother in the other universe, if she wants to keep her family safe.

Miss Spink was another tenant in the same building as Coraline and her family. When reading the tea leaves from Coraline's teacup, Miss Spink and Miss Forcible revealed that she is in danger. Miss Spink then gave her a <em>"stone with a hole [that] went all the way through the middle of the stone"</em>. The stone that Miss Spink gave her was to help keep her safe from danger. And this stone helped her see through things, unmasking everything hidden by the "Other Mother".
