The news media coverage of infectious diseases makes them seem much worse than they really are. For example the Ebola outbreak was made to seem much worse than it was. People feared catching the virus but very few people did. So in conclusion news coverage of infectious diseases just scars us and makes the disease seem like a terrible plague

Why do you think Shakespeare uses the prophecy of the witches to set Macbeth’s rise to power in motion? Support your answer with
dem82 [27]

Shakespeare most likely uses the prophecy to set Macbeth's rise to power in motion to show that Macbeth is ambitious and superstitious, and that he was just waiting for a reason to get started.

<h3>Macbeth and the witches' prophecy</h3>

In the tragic play "Macbeth," Shakespeare uses three witches and their prophecy to set things in motion. Their ambiguous prophecy leads Macbeth to get started with his plans to become king.

Had Macbeth not believed the prophecy, nothing would have changed. The fact that he did believe it only shows that he is already an ambitious and superstitious man. All he needed was a reason - any reason - to take the throne for himself.

In “At Dusk,” what do the speaker’s thoughts reveal about her ideas concerning home? Use two details from the poem to support yo
kati45 [8]

Answer:

In her poem, Natasha Trethewey´s description of home shows that, despite being usually a comfortable place, it can take away the possibility of exploring new and more interesting places.

Explanation:

This idea arises from the image of a cat choosing whether to go back home or not. Staying outside is described as a “luminous possibility—all that would keep her away from home".

Then, Trethewey states that her observation of the cat led her to wonder if she could be able to get someone to come back to her home, questioning if her voice would be "enough to call someone home".

Do you feel certain forms of multimedia are more viable than other? Explain.
koban [17]

Answer:

Yes I do, for example a history tv show or a social media page could explain and elaborate on history. I do think though that social medias are less reliable than Wikipedia's or other things, because not many people will just post some facts or reliable stuff on there. They could be lying because its the internet and some people believe that nothing will happen to them or they think its a joke. Well I could elaborate more but thats just the tip of the iceberg.
