4. An American was hitchhiking in Italy and got picked up by an Italian truck driver. The American spoke no Italian, but was flu

ent in Spanish. He and the truck driver (who spoke no English or Spanish) had a lively conversation for two hours: the American was speaking Spanish, and the truck driver was speaking Italian. At the end of the trip, the truck driver asked the American which dialect of Italian he was speaking. What does this tell you about the difference between the dialects of Spanish and Italian spoken by these two people as language varieties?

Answer:

The difference of dialect is not the issue. The Latin connection is.

Explanation:

To start with, we can assume that the American doesn´t speak a Spanish dialect, because dialects are generally spoken by minorities in their own home country. The reason why the truck driver believes the American speaks an Italian dialect is simple: it´s due to the fact that Spanish is a Latin lenguage, i.e. the lenguage spoken by the Romans (first only in Rome, then all over Italy during the beginning of the Roman Republic and by 117 AD the Roman Empire and it´s lenguage was all over Europe). The similarity of Spanish and Italian is a bit like Dutch and German, because Dutch has German roots, whereas Spanish has Latin roots.

Answer:Black-and-white colobus monkeys are Old World monkeys and are not found in North America.

Explanation:

Black-and-white colobus monkeys are  not found in North America. So she probably hit a skunk or any other animal and misunderstood it as Black and white colobus monkey.  

As colobus monkey is not found where she is driving so it might give her relief. You would add to console her by saying that it is not her fault as she does not hit the animal intentionally.

What happens to people who live under a terror regime for a long period of time? Should people adapt to a terror regime? Explain
leonid [27]
<h2>The court determine two verdicts for the people who live under a terror regime for a long period of time. Either the accused was innocent or was put to death.</h2>

Explanation:

Usually people obey for a time but then revolutionary government usually fluctuate or change. The people who opposed terror regime was punished by either sending to prison or even death.

North Korea is the only country that followed terror regime but most of the region believed, the people rise up and absolute ruler falls. This is the way how it works. The same thing can be seen in several Arab countries.

It was a dark and violent period of time during the terror regime. Later revolutionary government was taken control by Radicals. If they suspect anyone not to be loyal to the revolution are arrested and executed.

According to me, people should fight back to come out of this terrible situation. They should not adapt this terrible situation without fighting through them just to survive.
