Answer:
William Shakespeare is often credited with having a profound influence on language, literature, theater, and other elements of culture. It would not be difficult to argue that we owe most of modern storytelling’s characteristics to Shakespeare. Theater has never been the same since his plays’ first performances, and Shakespeare’s influence can be noted in everything from contemporary dialogue to expectations of audience behavior. It’s been asserted by historians that the circulation of Shakespeare’s First Folio, a bound collection of his plays that was published posthumously, began to solidify his role as one of the most important figures in history. He’s the most highly regarded dramatist in the world, and Shakespeare’s influence is just as pronounced today as it was centuries ago. Shakespeare is responsible for inventing, popularizing, repurposing, and preserving thousands of common words in the English language. His playful usage of language included combining two words to make a new one, changing verbs into adjectives, changing nouns into verbs, and adding prefixes or suffixes to words. Shakespeare's work has lasted and influenced other artists because of the "emotional experiences" (Siegel) he provides. His works are also timeless. The problems in the plays are also real life today,which is why there are so many books and movies on his work.

D. The systems draw on both the arts and natural science.
Explanation:
According to the passage, systems of philosophy retain a certain relative validity because they draw on both the arts and natural science as they are not solely dependent on either the facts and theories of natural science or the classical approach to art but use both aspects well.
<em>He appeased the child by giving the child her bottle of warm milk.</em>
Since I was born in Romat Gan, Israel, I suppose that I can say the first major place I visited was the United States. Must have been a quite a sight, the moment I exited that plane, considering that I soiled myself; but then again, I was only a year old at the time. Since then, I've added the Grand Canyon to the roster of locations that I've stepped foot on. Of course, I only walked alongside the canyon, as my milky white skin could not handle the three day long trek it would take to journey across the national park. Six Flags Great Adventure was certainly more my speed, though I held an intrepid fear of roller coasters till I was 14 years old and peer pressure got the best of me as it did when I was 18 years old when I truly enjoyed the New Jersey shore for the first time among good friends while the underclassmen were stuck at school after Prom weekend.
(Haha sorry I forgot the directions said to describe one place with four proper nouns. I accidentally wrote about four proper noun locations. Though I think it still qualifies. Hope this helped.)
