English

Semmy [17]2 years ago

Answer:

September

Explanation:

Although The Old Man and the Sea takes place in September of 1950, it exists outside (or just at the edge) of these and other significant events of the period. However, the novella does reflect a universal pattern of socioeconomic change familiar even today among developing nations.

PLEASE HELP ME!!!! <br> What are reasons why instant replay SHOULDN'T be in sports??
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Instant replays slow down the pace of games, altering a great part of watching a game live. Furthermore, instant replay can serve as a delay for players to catch their breath or cause a team that has the momentum to cool downIn the NFL, instant replay is completely changing how catches are viewed. “Plays that would be called catches in any high school game, that people in the stadium would see as a catch, are now slowed down, replayed and frequently overturned because technically, the player slightly bobbled the ball three steps in as he hurtled to the ground at 20 miles per hour,” Jackson Hurley said.

While some NFL fans think instant replay is taking away from the game, others think it is keeping the game truthful.“I think instant replay for the NFL is a very positive thing because it keeps the game honest and keeps the refs honest too. I think the fans are less offended because all they want is the right call to be made,” said Raiders fan Aidan O’Donnell.

Most sports leagues have rules that govern when instant replay can and cannot be used. NFL coaches, for example, are allowed just two challenges per game, earning a third only if the first two are successful. If an official happens to miss more calls and those calls don’t occur on plays that are automatically reviewed — scoring plays or turnovers — teams won’t be able to get the calls corrected. Coaches may challenge plays that don’t require them, causing more delays while the situation is sorted out. Find- ing an effective method to regulate the replay rules is something all leagues are working on.

Fans of the NBA have mixed feelings about the instant replay rule. Some feel as if it is killing the game, others think instant replay does go far enough, and some feel that it is helping referees make the right decision during the crucial moments of a game. “The results of the plays are a lot more accurate. In a tight game, for me, the instant replay is key,” says Anton Homeniuk.

Friend and fellow NBA fan Alex Furukawa has a different perspective. “I think instant replay is a good thing, but there are a lot of aws. For example, if a play is being reviewed and they notice something else, they can’t change the call. If they are reviewing who the ball touched last, and they notice a player in the back punches another player, they can’t call a foul on the player throwing punches. It also takes away from the tears and joy of the game.”

Basketball is one of the fastest paced games around, making it hard for referees to make the right call 100 percent of the time. The NBA’s instant replay rule was implemented during the 2002- 2003 playoffs. Many believe that this new rule changed the game of basketball significantly.

Since then the NBA has made various changes to the rule to enable referees to make the correct call.The league even built

its own “Replay Center” which has 94 monitors that play each NBA game going on at the time, from various angles. Referees in the Replay Center help make decisions for on-court reviews. The NBA can’t please everyone with the replay rule. Either you enjoy watching the fast-paced games with occasional hiccups in calls, or you do not mind the reoccurring delays as long as the right call is being made.

In baseball, home-run plays and tags are subject to review, but the MLB is looking to expand to fair-or-foul calls, trapped balls, and fan interference. Already, home-run reviews add on more time to a long game. If the MLB expands to other parts of the game to review then baseball games could be slowed down dramatically. But as many know, baseball is already a slow-paced game, and fans already keep coming back through the 162 game season, instant replay may not affect them.

Allowing replays for ball and strike calls in baseball, holding penalties in football or contact under the hoop in basketball would lead to frequent stoppages. This leads to ongoing tension between those who want the use of instant replay expanded and those who don’t. While instant replay has certainly changed the sports world completely, fans are still unsure if it is for the better or, for the worse. With a few more years professional leagues will eventually find a way to implement the instant replay rule, while still keeping the game honest and exciting.

1. Shopping scam is when a group of people (scammers) pretend to be reliable sellers , they either put the products in different prices or promises something else in return.
2. The warning could be that the price of the products are different from others places for example if you have seen that product somewhere else and the price is nothing the same as that site you should realize what’s happening. Also if the online store for example ask you for unusual pay methods.
3. Something you could do is read the reviews if it contains, check the privacy policy and the information of the website check if it has enough information about the contributors and site in general.
4. You should report the scam, talk to your bank and see what can be done and after that secure your accounts change(reset) passwords.
Hope it helps:)

In "The Birthmark," Hawthorne develops the theme that insistence on physical perfection often leads to emotional harm. Which det
Anika [276]

The statements that correctly contribute to the theme that insistence on physical perfection often leads to emotional harm are;

  • "'Then why did you take me from my mother’s side? You cannot love what shocks you!'"
  • "Aylmer’s somber imagination was not long in rendering the birthmark a frightful object, causing him more trouble and horror than ever Georgiana’s beauty, whether of soul or sense, had given him delight."

The two statements, culled from The Birthmark by Nathaniel Hawthorne, show individuals who are troubled because of insistence on physical features. In the first sentence, the woman Georgina wonders why her husband Aylmer will marry her when the birthmark on her face shocks him. She is deeply angered by this.

In the second sentence, Aylmer is so invested in a birthmark that he feels troubled. These two experiences indicate that an insistence on physical features can cause emotional harm.
