Answer:

WHAT sort of creature is the human? The obvious answer is a smart, talkative, upright ape with a penchant for material possessions.  

But what about the more subtle concept of human nature? That is more controversial. Some deny it exists, preferring to believe that we can be anything we want to be. They cannot be right.  

Although we exhibit lots of individual and cultural variations, humans are animals, and like all animals we have idiosyncrasies, quirks and characteristics that distinguish us as a species. An invading alien would have no trouble categorising us but, being so close to our subject matter, we struggle to pin down the essence of humanness.  

Nevertheless, the task may not be beyond us. Anthropologists have identified many “human universals” – characteristics shared by all people everywhere, which constitute a sort of parts list of our species. What if we were to use these to examine the human animal in the same way we would study any other?  

As the following articles reveal, what emerges is a suite of characteristics that encapsulate our nature – and a rather peculiar one it proves to be. If you thought you knew what humans were like, then think again.

Just to be honest, most humans are not good by nature. Yes, most of them are not, but believe me, when you think there aren't any good ones, there are. I have a "grandma" and I say it that way because she's not actually related to me at all, but I just call her that. She is super nice, and caring and never curses, unlike every, single, person in my family. She never criticizes and always supports people. And don't let the that make you think that only old people are good by nature because that's also not true. I have a friend, who is super loyal and also never puts anyone down, and just overall does nothing bad or negative. And that's also not to say that "shes just not showing her true self" because she does, she drools when she sleeps, and burps around me, and has feelings about other people like everyone does, but doesn't put anyone down and keeps to herself. She helps people in need, and would stay up all night to talk you out of sui.cide.

"Attitude reflects leadership." What does that mean?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
“Attitude reflects leadership, captain” is a now-famous quote from the movie Remember the Titans. While this movie is about American high school football, the sentiment remains: a good, or bad, attitude comes from the top down. ... It's the trickle-down economics effect on productivity, moods and general – well – attitude.

We will meet at the pool at 6:30 PM which best describes we will meet at the pool at 6:30 p.m.?
Lilit [14]

Answer: a) this is a verb phrase.

Explanation:

A verb phrase is that part of the sentence that contains a verb and it's dependants. The Dependent is usually a helping/auxillary verb that comes before the main verb to 'help' the verb make it's point.

Such verbs include, am, will, would, does, and could.

In this case the verb phrase would be, "will meet" with will being the Helping Verb and Meet being the main verb.

It is worthy of note that some times there will be more than one helping verb though such as 'had been' in "had been watching television"

In the gift of magi what is dellas problem in the story
ANEK [815]
"The Gift of the Magi" tells the story of a young couple Jim and Della. Christmas is coming, and each wants to buy the other a present. The problem is that they really cannot afford to spend a lot of money on presents. Jim treasures his gold pocket watch, which has been given to him by his father. Della treasures her long, beautiful hair. 

As the story progresses, the two struggle to think of ways to buy a Christmas present for each other. Finally, on Christmas Eve, Della realizes she has next to no money left for her husband's Christmas present. What will she do??? 

At this point, she goes into town to search for something to buy with the little money she has. She knows that her husband's most prized possession is his pocket watch. She thinks that maybe she could buy him a chain for it, but they are all too expensive.

That's when Della realizes she has a way to EARN the money -- her hair. She runs out and has it cut short. She is able to sell the hair for enough money to buy the chain for her husband's watch.

Her husband comes home with a present for Della. When he sees her, however, he is shocked. She tells him she cut her hair for his present. When Jim hands her his present, we can see why he was so shocked. He had bought her a pair of really expensive hair combs. How could he afford such a gift? He had sold his most prized possession -- his watch -- just to buy his wife a present. 

Of course, now that Della has short hair, she cannot use the combs. And, now that Jim has sold his watch, he has no use for the chain. That aside, their love for one another is the greatest gift of all.

And so, Della's problem was how to buy a gift for her beloved husband. She solves this problem by selling her most prized possession, her hair.
