2 answers:

Answer:

B, C, D, A, C, B, A

Explanation:

1. B

A) In general, transcendentalists saw nature as a something beautiful. Answer A goes directly against this viewpoint, so even without knowledge on the text, this is an incorrect answer.

B) This viewpoint is in keeping with transcendentalist views. It is the correct answer.

C) <em>Walden </em>is a book whose focus is on how nature impacted Thoreau's views on the world. He wrote it whilst out in a forest, in a cabin. It most certainly is not indifferent towards nature.

D) This is never brought up in the book.

2. C

A) Emerson's main focus whenever talking about self-reliance was not on "the elements". In fact, he most likely thought the opposite.

B) Emerson's views were almost never involved with business.

C) Emerson believed that, in keeping with the main ideals of transcendentalism, there should be a focus on individuality, independence both thought and attitude. This answer is correct.

D) This was a topic that writers like Emerson did not hold opinion for.

3. D

A) Emerson wrote the <em>Concord Hymn </em>to celebrate independence. He wouldn't regret the minutemen who fired the first shots of the battle.

B) Emerson was not bewildered when writing this. His diction does not condemn the people of America like the minute men for seeking independence.

C) The best adjective to explain his attitude in the hymn would not be gratitude, although he may feel it. His emotions that he's sharing with the audience in the hymn are stronger than that.

D) Awe is an adjective that properly captures the author's attitude towards the minute men who fought for independence in the Battle of Concord.

4. A

A) Thoreau in his book <em>Walden </em>went to the woods and lived in a cabin to experience the very basics of life, without the distractions of the growing America.

B) Thoreau was a writer. he had no separate jobs that I know of that did not involve writing.

C) Thoreau was not a scientist.

D) If he was dating nature then yes.

5. C

A) Thoreau did not leave the woods because it was too difficult. He would not have stayed for 2 years if it was too difficult.

B) For the same reason as A, he did not leave because of isolation.

C) Thoreau believed that after two years living in the woods, he had experienced everything the woods offer. He went back because he wanted to continue to live life without routine.

D) If there is context in "sugar in his coffee" this could be the correct answer, but if not, then this answer is not the reason he left.

6. B

A) Conformity is the opposite of what Thoreau believed in. Individuality is something he believed in, but was not one of the main points of the book.

B) This is correct, especially in this book. He went out into nature for the sole purpose of self-reliance, so it's one of the main topics within the book.

C) These are not only not relevant topics in the book, but for someone who believed in nonconformity like Thoreau, these two topics may even go against his views, unless the others he was friends with were nonconformists as well.

D) These are not topics in Thoreau's book, but they may be part of Romanticism.

7. A

A) In general, Thoreau can be summarized with this line, not just <em>Waldin</em>. almost every famous work of his is something relating to being someone who is different.

B) If anything, Thoreau believed that one could fight "City Hall" using Civil-Disobedience. But, even aside from that, he never talking about this in his book.

C) This is a saying that has nothing to do with Thoreau's beliefs.

D) Conforming to others is the opposite of Thoreau's beliefs. To conform to others is to no longer be an individual in his eyes.

I don't know why I answered every option, but there you go. :)

sergey [27]

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information:

Some argue that the ban is not necessary and that if the government educated parents about the health effects of food with high amounts of sugar, fat, or sodium, then parents would not feed their kids food with high amounts of these unhealthy substances. Although the opposition has a point about the importance of education, even if parents have the knowledge they need to make the right decision, it’s difficult to do so if restaurants can use marketing techniques such as popular toys to attract customers. Educating parents combined with regulating restaurants can help families make healthier decisions.

A society is considered sustainable if it:
Alexeev081 [22]
Sustainable development of a society means that resources are used wisely enough and will still be present for the use of the future generation. If choice A is correct, people would have the power to exploit resources as long as they have money. If choice B is correct, a country would be able to sustain itself in the expense of another country, which is morally wrong. If choice D is correct, then people in the future would only have artificial resources in their hands which would create a lot of problems in regards health, economy, etc. Therefore, all these three choices are wrong.

A society is consired sustainable if it (c) recognizes the limits of the environment and looks for alternatives to using up natural resources.

What is the purpose of lobbying?.
Rasek [7]

In order to sway a decision about a legislative or administrative action, lobbying is the practice of directly approaching or encouraging others to approach a member of the legislative, executive, or quasi-public bodies of government.

  • It encompasses any efforts made by people, organized organizations, or other lawmakers to sway lawmakers and authorities. "Lobbying" (also spelled "lobby") is a form of advocacy with the intention of influencing decisions made by the government by individuals or more commonly by lobby groups.
  • In a letter to a member of Congress, a Duke official requests that they abstain from voting on an amendment that would be presented during the bill's discussion. This is lobbying since it offers a viewpoint on a specific piece of legislation.

Thus this is the purpose of lobbying.
