What is a lesson that Mark Twain learns as a result of his experience as a cub pilot ?

English
1 answer:
Katen [24]4 years ago
4 0

Answer and Explanation:

One lesson Twain learns as a cub pilot is to trust himself. As an apprentice, he works under Mr. Bixby. Upon being given the chance to navigate on his own, Twain is initially very confident in his own skills. However, Mr. Bixby asks him if he is really sure he can do it. Twain grows immediately insecure. He doubts himself, even though he truly knows what to do. It was all a test. Bixby wanted to teach him a lesson: to never doubt his own skills because of what others say.

In the book To Kill a Mockingbird, According to Atticus, why don't blacks get a fair deal in court? What page is that on?
stealth61 [152]
<span>Blacks didn't get a fair deal in court because there were no black jurors, that meant that the jury was all white, and that kind of jury would not ever give a not guilty verdict to a black man, especially if a crime was committed against a white, it didn't matter how trashy and despicable the white guy was. 

The jurors are from the country and not town to ensure that they were not "biased" against any of the parties involved.(they were from the town)</span><span>

A composition on child upbringing​
prohojiy [21]

Parents who are strong role models(authoritative parents) for their children often raise them to become capable, content adults. Permissive parenting is typically associated with children who perform poorly on happiness and self-control tests.

Authoritative democratic parents exhibit high demands and high responses because, in addition to holding their kids to high standards and expecting them to work hard and accomplish high goals, they also give them support and are receptive to their needs. Democratic parents with authority also permit their kids to have some degree of autonomy and independence.

The child's strengths, capacity for listening to his needs, and sense of self-worth are the initial values. Children can learn self-love through providing constant, altruistic support, receiving praise, and receiving hugs. Respecting your child's emotions will help them communicate with you.

Explain Faulkner’s idea behind mankind prevailing even in the darkest of times. Use textual evidence to support your answer.
sasho [114]

This question is about Faulkner's speech when he won the Nobel Prize for Literature.

Answer and Explanation:

Faulkner says that humanity will prevail in the dark times because the human voice is inexhaustible, which makes it immortal. This immortality and invincibility of the human being is directly related to writing because when writers and poets record their thoughts and the problems that humanity faces, they allow readers to prepare and be strong for the adversities of life. These readers also feel the urge to write about the same things, making this process repeat itself infinitely, giving strength to humanity to prosper.

A part of the speech that reinforces this thinking is:

"I refuse to accept this. I believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. He is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. The poet’s, the writer’s, duty is to write about these things. It is his privilege to help man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past. The poet’s voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to help him endure and prevail. "
