"Build on a human scale" means the priority given to human beings before constructing anything else.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Architect Jan Gehl gives a better explanation of what "Build on a human scale" is. Before building a pavement or a building or even constructing a car or a bicycle, people are first taken into consideration.

"Build on a human scale" means the priority given to human beings before constructing anything else. The space that is required for the people in the city is first calculated and than the other things are taken into consideration. If not, if people weren't give a thought and just build buildings and manufacture cars, the lives would be disrespected as well as considered not important which would put an engineer at high danger.

Read the descriptions of rhyme schemes below.

Answer:

The poem "Harlem" uses the free verse form of poetry.

Explanation:

Langston Hughes' poem "Harlem" was written in the form of a free verse which means that there is no specific rhyme scheme or meter form. Free verse poems are nonetheless poetic. The absence of any consistent rhyme scheme did not defer in the poem's meaningful expression of the poem.

Hughes'<em> "Harlem"</em> is in the form of a question which the poet directed to the readers. The poem goes like this-

<em>What happens to a dream deferred? </em>

<em>      Does it dry up </em>

<em>      like a raisin in the sun? </em>

<em>      Or fester like a sore— </em>

<em>      And then run? </em>

<em>      Does it stink like rotten meat? </em>

<em>      Or crust and sugar over— </em>

<em>      like a syrupy sweet? </em>

<em />

<em>      Maybe it just sags </em>

<em>      like a heavy load. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>      Or does it explode?</em>

There are no specific rhyming scheme though some words do rhyme in some lines (sun/run, meat/sweet etc). But overall, there is no indication of any sense of rhyming or meter form.

What evidence is there in the text to support the notion that scout learns from the advice she is given
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

- Because she doesn't judge people to quickly like she did before.

Explanation:

In the context of 'To Kill A Mocking Word' authored by Harper Lee, the evidence that justifies Scout's learning from the suggestions given to her would be 'her improved behavior as she no more judges people immediately but began to assess them first.' This assists her in <u>growing and developing a wider perspective to look at the things</u>. In the beginning of the novel, she is a bit like a tomboy and displays naive and inquisitive character while she undergoes a major development after the advice received which <u>transforms her into a completely changed individual and she has become more thoughtful and penetrative</u>.
