English

Soloha48 [4]4 years ago
6 0
After a thorough research, there exists the same question with the paragraph.

<span>Both petroleum and coal are made up of complex carbon-based molecules, and both originated with living creatures of some kind. Both are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. However, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. Coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. In any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced. This is the case because it took that much time for overlying sediments to produce the unimaginable heat and pressure that would one day allow us to harvest these energy resources.
</span>
The paragraph uses 'Compare and Contrast' organization. It presented us the differences and similarities between coal and petroleum.

What human institution or human weakness is satirized in this piece?
marin [14]

The cartoon satirizes how humans tend to criticize others' problems more than their own. This is done through the device of humor known as irony.

<h3>How can we come to this conclusion?</h3>
  • The artist shows a bird that was annoyed by the creaking of a door.
  • The artist shows that the bird has chicks that make more noise than the creaking door, but he ignores it.
  • The bird does not control the chicks but wants the owner of the fence to control the noise it makes

The artist uses irony to show a different conclusion from what the audience is expecting. This is because, on the one hand, the public expects the bird to control its extremely noisy chicks. However, the bird leaves its chicks making noise and starts complaining about the noise of the neighbor's fence door.

It is important to emphasize that irony is the device that promotes unpredictability, showing elements different from what would be obvious.

What were the main ideas shaping US imperialism and how were they resolved
Lena [83]

The main ideas shaping US imperialism were "Manifest destiny" and the "White man's burden". Manifest destiny refers to the 19th century belief that the United States were meant to expand across North America because of the particular excellence of its (white) people and (democratic) institutions. This lead to the Trail of Tears, among other atrocities. Once the US reached the Pacific Ocean, new lands came into view (Puerto Rico, the Phillipines). Manifest destiny became entwined with the idea that "civilized" nations had a moral obligation to colonize other peoples, which Rudyard Kipling summed up in his poem "White Man's Burden". The tensions in this "benevolent imperialism" were never fully resolved; the US invasion of Irak was launched under similar pretenses (the invasion was "for the good" of those invaded). The idea that other peoples have a right to self determination regardless of their level of development has not yet become accepted by the great powers, including the US.
