Summary of the poem: The speaker of this poem describes listening to a learned astronomer lecture. He sees proofs and figures in columns before him, as well as charts and diagrams that he is supposed to analyze mathematically. He gets sick of the mathematics and charts, and goes out and looks at the night sky.

Whitman is saying that the true way to understand nature is not scientific but intuitive and mystical. The poet can feel and understand the processes of nature when he is experiencing them, but listening to people lecture about them merely makes him "tired and sick."

I am not the best when it comes to art or the studies of art, yet I feel like I can help on this. From what I know from taking art year round, I would assume it is C since you can tell the amounts of detail and preciseness they have put on this, unlike other images that are asymmetrical.

You don't need to worry about labeling yourself if it's stressing you out this much. You of course can try to figure it out, but you really don't need to label yourself.

(I'm really sorry if this comes off as insensitive, I'll help more if you need it <3)

Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Brown v. Board of Education, written by Justice Warren.
ollegr [7]

Answer:

D. The real impact of racial segregation is emotional damage to minority students.

Explanation:

Brown v. Board of education refers to the US Supreme Court's decision from 1950s that separation of students of different color, although providing equal factors to their schools, as to the "white" schools, still is unconstitutional.

So, we basically have "white" schools and "black schools" in which cirricula, teacher salaries, buildings and all other factors are equalized.

However, the problem that remains is the need for separation of these schools. Doing so, creates emotional damage to minority students, who, in this situation feel like they are less valuable and deprived of contact and socializing with their peers.

So, all those equal "tangible" factors mentioned above don't contribute to true equality if the students need to be separated by race into different schools.

qwelly [4]

I believe that making online purchases through smart speakers isn't a good idea. It would become very easy to steal credit card information if you are just yelling it into your devices. You also have the scenario were a kid or friend could jokingly order something.
