HELP!!!! "A tiger dies and leaves a skin. A man dies and leaves a name." This ancient Chinese proverb illustrates the fundamenta

l quality of man that distinguishes him from the animals—the power to think and reason. He can decide what his future will hold. In the molding and shaping of his life, man exerts an influence on all whom he encounters. He has the ability to choose the type of influence he will have. A tiger, unlike a man, has no control over either his environment or his destiny. Though he is a majestic animal that prowls the jungle with pride and assurance, terrorizing both man and beast, his actions are governed only by the laws of nature. His death leaves the world unchanged; he exerts no lasting influence. When a man dies, however, he may continue to influence others through his accomplished goals and through the traits and ideas he has passed on.

Compare and contrast Nanahuatzin and Tecuciztecatl.
crimeas [40]

<span>Nanahuatzin and Tecuciztecatl are two Aztec Gods who have different characteristics far from each other. Nanahuatzin or Nanahuati is the most humble of all gods. He sacrificed himself so that he would continue to shine on earth as the sun by throwing himself to the fire. The meaning of Nanahuatzin is “full of sores”. Usually, Nanahuatzin is depicted as a man emerging from fire. Tecuciztecatl or Tecciztecatl on the other hand, is the lunar deity in the Aztec mythology. He represents the old “man-in-the-moon”. In the stories, it is said that all were living in a universe dominated by a generation of sun gods. The first few sun gods either perished by wind storms, jaguars, and fiery rain or by flood. After the fourth sun perished, Nanahuatzin and Tecuciztecatl vied for the honor of becoming the next sun god. A bonfire was built for it is there that they will sacrifice the next volunteer. It was Nanahuatzin, a poor god, who was favored by the majority to be the next sun god. Tecuciztecatl pushed that he was more deserving but at the last moment he hesitated. It was because of Nanahuatzin’s courage that he jumped into the fire. But then Tecuciztecatl gained courage too and followed the lead of Nanahuatzin. The other gods were mad at the rich and proud Tecuciztecatl for he had followed the humble Nanahuatzin and so they threw an imprint of the rabbit’s shape dimming Tecuciztecatl’s brightness. This is the reason Tecuciztecatl’s brightness could only be seen at night. </span>

Read the sentences from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin. Next to the statues and the head, the slab seems
serg [7]

Answer:

'the slab seems unimpressive at first glance'

Explanation:

Hi! The narrator uses the word 'seems' revealing his opinion of what in his eyes is the description of the slab. It's not an affirmative sentence, it's personal and doubted. To analyze the slab the narrator uses an adjective too, showing according to his vision that it's not interesting.  

I hope it helps you !
