C. where no considerable European settlement is possible

Though all the passage clearly expresses the author's idea to convey that British is superior to all countries, option C is the phrase that most clearly suggest that.

By using the words "no (...) is possible", the author expresses that normally people considered impossible/unfeasible a big European settlement in their lands, but since they are the British Empire, they are superiors and therefore they are the ones who can make it possible.

Which of the following systems does NOT display emergent properties?

forsale [732]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which of the following systems does NOT display emergent properties? Would be, E: None of the listed responses is correct.

Explanation:

It is first important to understand what an emergent property is, and how it becomes part of a system, or not. Essentially, an emergent property is a characteristic that a system acquires thanks to the team work of the group members and it is not displayed by a single individual. As such, when the individual members of the system work together, the result is an emergent property that would not be present unless the whole group worked as one. From the list given here, all of them are systems that work together to bring about emergent properties, they are groups and systems, and therefore, the cannot be considered as NOT displaying emergent properties. This is why the answer is E.

Why does the author repeat the idiom about butterflies in Luisa's stomach three times throughout the story

oee [108]

The author repeated the idiom about butterflies in Luisa's stomach three times throughout the story to show how Luisa's feelings of nervousness were decreasing as the day went on.

Idioms are groups of words that relate to a meaning which is not directly deducible. In other words, idioms express certain meanings that may or may not be literal but can be figurative.

In the short story "Second Day, First Impressions", the author talks about "butterflies" in Lisa's stomach three times.

Generally, "butterflies in the stomach" is an idiom that refers to a feeling of nervousness in the person.

This way, we can assume that Luisa is in fact nervous about the Scavenger hunt in her school.

But after reading through the story, we come to know that these butterflies in her stomach decreased as their scavenger hunt progresses.

Having butterflies in one's stomach means a person is nervous about a certain thing. And as such, the mentioning of butterflies in Luisa's stomach thrice throughout the story shows how her nervousness reduces as the day goes on. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
