In <em>Essay on Man,</em> Pope discusses the relationship between men and God. He argues that men cannot hope to learn God's reasoning behind his creation of the world. Therefore, they can only trust that he has done what is best, and accept the outcome.

Pope is concerned that, with the advancement of science, people are becoming overly arrogant, and they think they are "imitating God." However, this arrogance only makes us fools and diminishes the purity of our spiritual essence. He says: "Know then thyself, presume not God to scan/The proper study of Mankind is Man." Men should focus on the study of men, and not on the questioning of God.

In Alexander Pope's Essay on Man, the speaker talks about how God has created a world that is best for humankind. He also talks about how the universe is all-embracing and that everything is right and good. Even though a person is driven by the wrong reasons, he can learn to develop good practices out of it or eventually change to something good.

Lincoln's message in this speech is that
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

A) although a terrible tragedy has occurred, those who remain alive should carry on the cause for which the soldiers died.

Explanation:

Lincoln's message in the Gettysburg Address is that <em>although a terrible tragedy has occurred, those who remain alive should carry on the cause for which the soldiers died</em>. President Lincoln offered his Gettysburg Address to state that the soldiers that are buried in that cemetery made the place sacred because they gave their lives in the war. Although it is true that the United States was 87 years old it is not the most important message of the speech. There was a great civil war being fought in this country is not was the message that he is trying to convey. He is consecrating the cemetery to those soldiers who gave their lives in battle.

In which two ways would the story be different if it were told from the point of view of Mrs. Copperfield? The reader would know
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The reader would know why Mrs. Copperfield is not very pleased to see Miss Betsey.

The reader would know why Mrs. Copperfield is worried about herself and her son.

Explanation:

When writing a narrative or story from the point of view of the person performing the action, the readers get to understand why they perform some actions because they can listen to what's going through their mind and its more expressive than using third person point of view.

Therefore, if the story was told from the point of view of Mrs. Copperfield, the story would be different because the reader would know why Mrs. Copperfield is not very pleased to see Miss Betsey.

The reader would know why Mrs. Copperfield is worried about herself and her son.

Read the passage. And how come we think dogs are so smart? Sure a dog might be clever enough to fetch his leash when he wants to
Nataly_w [17]
C is the choice I would make because I believe the writer is planning to answer this question: "and how come we think dogs are so smart". The writer never tells us what dogs can't do (a) or mention others being dumb (b) and doesn't make fun of humans (d)
