-For a dictionary you would use it when you come across a word while reading books, magazines, or an article on your phone if you see a word you cannot pronounce or do not understand.

-If your using a thesaurus then you should use it to find synonyms for any word except slang as far as I know. A thesaurus can help you find words similar in meaning to JOY which would be: Happy, Joyful, Cheerful etc.

- A glossary is for when your reading a book and you don't understand some words. You open the book then proceed to the back of the book where you will find a lot of words with definitions a lot like dictionaries.

Glad to help! :)

Reasons why people don’t learn from fear
Brrunno [24]

People don't learn from fear because their minds are not in a state of learning. For example, if you are scared of thunder, you only focus on your fear. However, if you be brave, you will soon learn that the sound of thunder can't hurt you.

1. In BNW they use conditioning on society. How does the BNW conditioning compare to how we are conditioned as a society?
KatRina [158]

Answer and Explanation:

1. In "Brave New World" the population was conditioned to act and think in the same way through the psychological alienations to which they were subjected. The idea behind this conditioning was to allow an end to individuality and to prevent people from thinking critically. Currently, we can consider that the media reinforces a conditioning similar to today's society. This is because we are conditioned to the standards that the media presents us, showing what it means to be successful, beautiful and pleasant. we are led to believe in these standards and to try to mold ourselves to them, at any cost, even if it causes harm and is against what we really believe. In "Brave New World" the character Marx is unable to submit to conditioning and is therefore excluded and seen as abnormal. In our society, people who refuse to submit to media standards are seen in the same way and feel out of place and lonely.

2. In "Brave New World" hypnopedia is used to teach individuals behavioral concepts while they are sleeping. This system allows them to listen to manipulative phrases that modify their behavior and teach them to act as desired. Currently, we can compare the "Brave New World" hypnopedia with smartphones. Despite not using smartphones while sleeping, we spent hours being subjected to the information that smartphones can provide, being possible and having access, once again, to the media standards that modify human behaviors.

"Brave New World" is a book written by Aldous Huxley and presents a futuristic society where all inequality has been eliminated, but the inhabitants are manipulated to act and think in a unique way, eliminating all individuality, rationality and autonomy.

Using what you know about the historical context at the time of publication, discuss one issue from Victorian life that is prese
san4es73 [151]

<em>By the time Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde had been written, Darwin had already published his theory on the evolution of man. This is very interesting because one of his major themes in the novel is ignoring the worst instincts of man. Dr. Jekyll represents what man is because of the pressures put onto us by society. He quotes that he is a philanthropist and well known in society because people have come to expect it from him. But his more instinctual side is bored of this do-gooder. And on some level, Dr. Jekyll wants to indulge in these instincts because of the need for pleasure. The question then appears itself though, would he want to indulge in these pleasures as much if the social requirements of men in the Victorian Era weren't as great?  </em>

Hope this helps. :)
