Meteorologists say that if only they could design an accurate mathematical model of the atmosphere with all its complexities, th

ey could forecast the weather with real precision. But this is an idle boast, immune to any evaluation, for any inadequate weather forecast would obviously be blamed on imperfections in the model.Which of the following, if true, would cast the most serious doubt on the meteorologists’ boast?
(A) The amount of energy that the Earth receives from the Sun is monitored closely and is known not to be constant.
(B) Volcanic eruptions, the combustion of fossil fuels, and several other processes that also cannot be quantified with any accuracy are known to have a significant and continuing impact on the constitution of the atmosphere.
(C) As current models of the atmosphere are improved, even small increments in complexity will mean large increases in the number of computers required for the representation of the models.
(D) Frequent and accurate data about the atmosphere collected at a large number of points both on and above the ground are a prerequisite for the construction of a good model of the atmosphere.
(E) With existing models of the atmosphere, large scale weather patterns can be predicted with greater accuracy than can relatively local weather patterns.

Is it ok to use “you” in an argumentative essay
Ray Of Light [21]

\huge\purple{Hi!}

I don't recommend using the first person pronoun in an argumentative essay. Unless your instructor suggests that you do so, omit it from the assignment because your writing will read better without it.

Which sentence describes a difference between Auden's "Musée des Beaux
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The sentence which describes the difference between the two poems is:

C. Auden mentions a ploughman and a ship as witnesses to icarus’s fall, while Williams only mentions a farmer

Explanation:

Both poems are based on a painting that portrays the fall from the sky of the mythological character Icarus. According to the myth, Icarus made wax wings so that he could fly. However, having flown too close to the sun, his wings melted and he fell.

<u>According to Auden's poem, a ploughman and a ship were witnesses to such a tragedy. No one, however, did anything to help poor Icarus:</u>

<em>[...] the </em><em>ploughman</em><em> may </em>

<em>Have heard the splash, the forsaken cry, </em>

<em>But for him it was not an important failure; the sun shone </em>

<em>As it had to on the white legs disappearing into the green </em>

<em>Water, and the expensive delicate </em><em>ship</em><em> that must have seen </em>

<em>Something amazing, a boy falling out of the sky, </em>

<em>Had somewhere to get to and sailed calmly on.</em>

<u>Williams, on the other hand, only mentions a farmer (who is in fact the same ploughman). He does not mention the ship:</u>

<em>a </em><em>farmer</em><em> was ploughing</em>

<em>his field</em>

<em>the whole pageantry</em>

<em>of the year was </em>

<em>awake tingling </em>

<em>with itself </em>
