This is another excuse that the Captain Beatty gives to Montag for why destroying books is good for the society. According to him, any person can potentially be offended by a subject, also he argues that all books are better off destroyed than allowed to incite anger. Captain Beatty uses an example of a book and linking it tobacco and cancer. Something curious is that he shows the benefit of destroying information about lung cancer to keep cigarette companies happy, but there are risks that we can see since people will be less informed of what smoking can do.

Hope this helps.

In The Myth of Sisyphus, what point(s) are Camus working to make by telling us this myth and commenting on it? (Offer at least 2
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Camus wanted to show that the human being is punished with monotony for allowing religious and economic systems to dominate him. In addition, he wants to show that this monotony makes the human being believe that he is part of these systems, but the human is a mere instrument of production and does not have the right to participate in the structuring and choices that this system has.

Explanation:

The Myth of Sisyphu presents the story of Sisyphu, a very intelligent and cunning peasant who was able to deceive the gods with ease, until one day the gods punished him to live, for eternity, by rolling a heavy and large stone from the ground to the top every day.

Albert Camus, used this myth to show how human beings are manipulated and used by religion and capitalist systems, making them live in a monotony that only made these systems grow, but that did not promote any kind of benefits or participation for human beings, keeping them captive in those systems.

Question 5(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)
Tanzania [10]

The sentence that would correct Vito's sentence to fit the rules of writing about literature is, Madame Loisel suffers so much paying for the necklace over 10 years that she looks much older than her actual age.

Because Each sentence consists of rules that is a subject and a predicate, or verb clause. Nouns and verbs both have a number, and that number must match. You must use the plural form of your verb when your topic is plural. The solitary verb form is necessary for a single subject.

And the given sentence Madame Loisel suffered so much paying for the necklace over 10 years that she looked much older than her actual age. This was incorrect as the use of verb and the use of plural form were incorrect, so the correct sentence would be Madame Loisel suffers so much paying for the necklace over 10 years that she looks much older than her actual age.

And the basic rules of writing are that subject-verb agreement refers to some of the most fundamental and significant principles of English grammar the sentences, which state that a single subject must have a singular predicate (and a plural subject must have a plural predicate).
