The denotation of a word is its literal meaning, not its implied one. All of the given words refer to a stop that is sudden and rude. Therefore, their denotation would be "stop" or "cut off".

Convince Your Clan: The year is 8000 BCE. Your clan must decide whether to become part of the Neolithic Agricultural Revolution
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer and Explanation:

The agricultural revolution must be supported on the grounds of survival and security. This is because, although we have survived all these years as collectors, we have no guarantee of food, water and shelter. The Agricultural Revolution will give us food security, as we know that we will have enough to feed ourselves in the coming days. This revolution will also give us a fixed shelter, which we will not need to compete with dangerous animals, or even face deadly disputes. Finally, the agricultural revolution prevents us from walking for hours and hours, it will give us work, but also rest and a more peaceful life.

• President Donald Trump has come to Mumbai in India and you are the historian who is supposed to explain the history of Mumbai.
podryga [215]

pon receiving President Trump, I introduced myself and asked how he was doing and whether he had made a good trip. Then I invite you to hear about Munbai's story so that he can better understand, the importance of it and why it is a synonym for pride in the country. He gladly accepted when I started to speak:

"Munbai is an ancient city, dated to 250 BC when it was formed by an archipelago of seven islands ruled by the Silhara dynasty, one of the great names of Hinduism, until 1343. Due to its economic potential, it did not take long for it to attract the attention of European colonialism, which was invaded and controlled by the Portuguese between 1509 and 1668, when it was leased by the United Kingdom and annexed to the British East India Company, which consisted of major architectural works that allowed all the islands to be joined in a single territory.

Although the region had many projects aimed at engineering, it also had a strong agricultural capacity, being the center of cotton during the American civil war, which transformed the local economy and stabilized the market in a grandiose way. The economy improved even more after the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869, making Munbai the largest port in the Arabian Sea and making it possible for population growth and an admirable quality of life.

With the economy becoming more and more successful, munbai became one of the most influential urban centers in the region which gave strength to the beginning of policies that stabilized the independence movement, which allowed the region to grow without the command of Europeans. Independence was achieved in 1942, after much struggle and perseverance. Since then, the city has only grown, not only economically but also culturally, being the seat of Indian film production. "

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Crazy boy [7]

According to a different source, this question refers to the Brown v. Board of Education decision. In this case, the court issued a unanimous decision in favor of the Brown family. This decision was written by Chief Justice Earl Warren.

I would argue that Warren's rhetoric is persuasive and authoritative. He very clearly explains the reasons why the Court reached this decision. This conveys a feeling of knowledge and clarity. The line that I find most moving is:

<em>"To separate [black children] from others of similar age and qualifications solely because of their race generates a feeling of inferiority as to their status in the community that may affect their hearts and minds in a way unlikely to ever be undone."</em>

I find this line to be very powerful because it gets to the source of the problem. By explaining how black children might feel, it encourages people to rethink segregation. It also supports the idea that all people are equally valuable, regardless of their color.
