People have often wondered if William Shakespeare had any involvement in the most important writing project of his time, the translation and prepartation of the King James Bible. Although there are no ways to verify this, at least one set of clues indicates Shakespeare probably had some involvement with at least the Old Testament part of the book.

William Shakespeare lived from 1564-1616.  The creation of the King James Bible began in the year 1610, the year in which Shakespeare would have been 46 years old.

If you turn to Psalm 46 in the King James Bible, and if you count exactly 46 words into the psalm, you find the word "shake."  If you count 46 words back from the end of that psalm, you will find the word "spear."

It just seems too coincidental to think that it was by fluke circumstances that the 46th Psalm would be translated around the time of Shakespeare's 46th birthday and that the 46th word from the start and the 46th word from the end would be "shake" and "spear."  My professional opinion is, Shakespeare translated that section of the King James Bible and he slipped in a secret byline to prove it was his work.

Dr. Dennis E. Hensley is director of the professional writing department at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana.  He holds four degrees in linguistics and literature, including a Ph.D. in English from Ball State University.  He is the author of 52 books.

How do the details about Guyana reveal the author's
vazorg [7]

The excerpt :

Eventually, I visited Guyana to find out the fate of our house. As our car passed old sugar estates, and I saw the palm trees bending against the wide sky, the lush cane growing in thick, shiny rows, the villages, which were really parcels of land surrounding the important estates, I realized that sugar had been the entire reason for this country's existence. Every now and then an old boiling house—where the cane is processed into crystals, molasses, and rum—would show itself on the flat landscape, cropping up like a hulking ghost

Answer:

They show that the author wants to inform readers by describing the old sugar estates.

Explanation:

From the excerpt Given, we could infer and conclude that the authors purpose as revealed by the details of the excerpt is to inform readers about the description of the old sugar estate. Even though the excerpt began with the author saying he wants to discover the fate their house, the main excerpt only covers details and description of the old sugar estate by giving an insight on how much sugar estate has grown and it being a main feature of the area.

Answer:

The questionable assumption of the plan is (E): The size of the smallest dots that generally available electronic scanners can reproduce accurately will not decrease significantly in the near future.

Explanation:

Technological advances increase in an exponential rate, it took almost a hundred years for electricity to become part of almost every house in the world. Computers became a daily part of our lives in a few decades since its creation, and smartphones took every life aspect in less than a decade. Being so, we must assume that electronic scanners will also become more precise and available faster than expected, which will make the small dots strategy obsolete in no time.
