If you're referring to : Read the excerpt from “Conclusion” in Walden.


The surface of the earth is soft and impressible by the feet of men; and so with the paths which the mind travels. How worn and dusty, then, must be the highways of the world, how deep the ruts of tradition and conformity! I did not wish to take a cabin passage, but rather to go before the mast and on the deck of the world, for there I could best see the moonlight amid the mountains. I do not wish to go below now.


Which best describes the purpose of the imagery in the excerpt?


The answer is B. It illustrates Thoreau’s goal to continue exploring the world around him in a unique and fulfilling way.

Answer:

The statement which summarizes the central idea of this passage is:

A. The yellow fever epidemic had lasting consequences for the city.

Explanation:

The passage begins by saying the number of people who died of the fever were in the thousands - 4 or 5. That number may very well have been bigger but it was difficult to keep count at that time. Then it moves on to say that <u>one thing was clear to all, independently on how accurate that number was: that things would never be the same. The epidemic would have lasting consequences, then. The losses, the fear, all of it was "too real and personal". It would forever change people's lives.</u>

Write a short paragraph giving one example of an item on the Commissioners Court agenda that you would NOT expect to find on a c
Tema [17]

An item on the Commissioners Court agenda that one would not expect to find on a city council agenda is one regarding authorization for the creation of a special district. Such an item is unlikely to appear on a city council agenda since it falls beyond the purview of a city council.

Creation of a special district:

A Commissioners Court refers to the governing body for a county. On the other hand, City Councils refer to the legislators of a municipality. Agenda items refer to the matters listed on the agenda for a meeting.

One of the responsibilities of the Commissioner’s Court is to hold special elections to authorize the creation of special districts. However, a City Council cannot do the same since it falls beyond its jurisdiction. Thus, it is likely that an item regarding creating a special district will appear on a Commissioners Court agenda but not a city council agenda.
