Answer:

D). They consider a shooting star a symbol.

Explanation:

The key reason behind people feeling hopeful every time they witness a shooting star is that 'shooting star acts as a symbol of hope' for them. People possess a belief that the wishes made to shooting stars are granted or made true which makes them hopeful and thus, it <u>spreads a positive vibe everywhere when it appears</u>. Therefore, a shooting star represents a deeper and spiritual meaning to the people, and hence, they consider it as a symbol. Thus, <u>option</u> <u>D</u> is the correct answer.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Based on The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone, the  statement that best describes the influence Thomas Young had on the work of Jean-François Champollion is Through changes made to some of Young's findings, Champollion was able to decipher some of the Rosetta Stone hieroglyphs.

Explanation:

Thomas Young and Jean-François Champollion were considered rivals, but ironically they work indirectly together since Thomas Young was the first in deciphering the Rosetta Stone hieroglyphs, but after being incapable of finish it, Jean-François Champollion succeeded after taking young's prior work and complemented it to fully decipher it.

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Two-Party System.

Explanation:

A two-party system is a type of party system where two parties dominate political life. In the countries described by the term, other parties are also legal and active, and therefore it should not be confused with a one-party state, where parties other than the ruling party are generally illegal, but these parties do not have almost any political relevance at the national level.

It has been stated, among other things, that such systems always offer two clear government alternatives, and that the relevance of personal elections is considered to increase, as personal positions on various issues become increasingly important.

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

I believe the correct answer is A) It contrasts uniform society with Equality 7-2521’s vivid thoughts and feelings.

Explanation:

<u>Even though Equality has adopted some social conventions of this collectivist society (such as using only "we" as a personal pronoun, without the individualist "I"), he still manages to retain the only part of himself that nobody can take away - his vivid thoughts, observation, and imagination.</u> Of course, he can only unveil those thoughts in his secret diary, but he hasn't lost them altogether.

The members of the Council, on the other hand, are silent, cold, and devoid of any observable emotions. Their language is laconic (concise, using a bare minimum of words without any speech ornaments such as imagery). It's as if all five of them are identical, with the only difference being the gender.
