another familiar disease is malaria, which Elizabethans refer to as ague or fever. You might associate this with more tropical c

ountries of the modern world but in marshy areas in sixteenth-century England, such as the Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire Fens, the Norfolk Broads, and Romney Marsh in Kent, it kills thousands. No one suspects that it has anything to do with mosquitoes; rather people believe it is the corrupted air arising from the low-lying dank marsh (hence the term mal-aria). As a result, you will have no chance of getting proper treatment for the disease. How does the paragraph expand on the central idea that malaria was a deadly disease in Elizabethan England?

Answer:

It explains Elizabethan misconceptions about the spread of malaria.

Explanation:

In this passage, the author explains to us how malaria was experienced in Elizabethan England. We learn that malaria was common in England during this time period, and that the disease kills thousands of people. The author, moreover, presents the central idea that malaria was a deadly disease in Elizabethan England. He expands on this idea by showing the misconceptions that people had regarding malaria. This explains why it would have been so difficult to get proper treatment for the disease.

Why does morgan freeman say the declaration was meant to be spoken rather than simply read
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Morgan freeman says the "declaration was meant to be spoken rather than simply read" to portrays that when the declaration was published the right thing to do was to follow, support and believe it so to say "spoken" from the heart but rather what happened was the declaration was simply "read" which suggests that it was not treated with value rather read like some common story.
