Incomplete question. The full question reads;

Use the context clues in each sentence to determine the best meaning for each bolded word or phrase.

"My father was proud that I chose his alma mater over the other schools."

A) course of study

B) former school

C) favorite place

Answer:

<u>B) former school</u>

Explanation:

The word 'alma mater' is actually a Latin phrase that is used to refer to a previously attended school or college.

Thus, if we were to replace the phrase alma mater in the above sentence it would read;

"My father was proud that I chose his former school over the other schools."

Directions: Compare and contrast the lyrics to “You Gotta Be” and “We are the Champions” to determine how the same concept is ex
Simora [160]
For We are the Champions (WATC):
Evidence 1: It’s more based upon self-focus, meaning “We are. the Champions”, “No Time for Losers”
For You Gotta Be (YGB):
Evidence 1: More based on a worldview, everyone working together, “You gotta stay together....love will save the day”
For WATC:
Evidence 2: This is more than anything not only a reflection on your troubled past but now how successful you are, “It’s been no bed of roses...you brought me fame and fortune...”
For YGB:
Evidence 2: From my analysis, it seems like a breakup, where you can see how “Lovers, they may cause you tears...don’t be ashamed to cry” can show that maybe it’s supposed to be something about getting over a breakup. I’m not entirely sure though.
**Try your hand at a third difference, I spent like five minutes looking. Sorry you might have to do a bit of work yourself .

Similarities:
1. They are both about achievement and about working hard at something. “And we’ll keep on fighting till the end” (WATC). “The world keeps on spinning, you can’t stop it if you try to”
2. Struggle is obviously present in both of these songs. “Try and keep your head up to the sky” (YGB). “I’ve paid my dues time after time” (WATC).

Hope this helps :)

According to Carr what is the problem with "memory maids" defense used by those who see nothing wrong with heavy internet usage?
Yuri [45]

Answer:

The problem is that it stimulates the underutilization of the brain and the waste of all its potential.

Explanation:

Nicholas Carr states in his text that memory is something built that must be stimulated and trained in order to be efficient. This causes our brain to develop and use all the potential that we know it has. With memorization, we are able to learn about everything, but memorization is decaying, since we are relying on memory devices that are becoming increasingly popular with the advancement of technology and that are extremely stimulated and defended by the people who make them. the intense use of the internet.
