Answer: Definition is the act of describing, or of making something definite, distinct, or clear.

Explanation: Definition is the action or power of describing, explaining, or making something definite and clear usually of words, or a group of words. It can also be seen as a statement of the meaning words or word groups or a signs or symbols etc. (dictionary definitions).

Certain terms often have many different senses and several meanings, and therefore, require multiple definitions. As such definitions are classed into three: intensional definitions that attempt to give the sense of a term, extensional definitions which try to list the things that a term describes and ostensive definitions, which convey the meaning of a term by giving examples.

Cultivate Resilience: How to Get Back on the Horse
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

"Cultivating a growth mindset is like learning a new language. You've got to work at it everyday, but with practice, it becomes more natural, and eventually, you become fluent".

Explanation:

The main point to be taken from this article is that people should learn to get back on their feet even after suffering failure. Therefore, just as we are bound to fail severally when learning a new language, we are also likely to fail in certain matters about life.

However, if we cultivate a growth mindset, we will not remain fixed with our problems, rather, we will look for ways to work on them, get better, and grow. We should not try to hide our deficiencies or internalize failure rather we must be ready to explore and remain resilient.

lukranit [14]

Answer: C. They show the speaker's feelings and behaviour at the start of her marriage, when she was young and less mature.

The poem "The River Merchant's Wife: A Letter" by Ezra Pound describes the transformation that a young girl undergoes when she finds a partner. At the beginning of the poem, the girl describes how she was timid, and how she kept her head down. However, as time goes by, she becomes more comfortable with her partner, eventually missing him terribly when he is away. The line describes the first stage of this relationship, when her shyness prevented her from being herself.
