Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is:
With infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter.
What idea do the words little and serene suggest in this text?
The idea that humans crave challenges and activity
The idea that human size was insignificant to that of Martians
The idea that humans were insignificant and oblivious
The idea that humans were obsessed with small things
Answer:
The idea that humans were insignificant and oblivious
Explanation:
The words "little" and "serene" convey a sense of inferiority and lack of importance. They were used in the text to show that men and the actions provoked and carried out by them are unimportant, without depth. These men and their actions were insignificant and oblivious, they were so small that they did not cause any relevant circumstances and for that reason the men presented a serenity, since they knew that they were not provoking anything.
'Horse of another color' is the opposite expression from Shakespeare's 'a horse of that color' in the Twelfth Night Act 2 Scene 3 where Maria told Sir Toby Belch that her purpose was indeed a horse of that color which meant that Sir Toby Belch got the same idea as hers. So, 'horse of another color' is an idea different from the other.
Answer:
A complex question, a short story, and a quote
Explanation:
These catch peoples eye because it gives them an idea of what they are going to read.
The excerpt given above is taken from Phillis Wheatley's poem "On Being Brought from Africa to America". The word sable literally means color black. In this line, Wheatley uses the word "sable" to indicate sense of inferiority. The author is an African and their race color is different from the rest.
