Read the excerpt from The Feminine Mystique. But on an April morning in 1959, I heard a mother of four, having coffee with four

other mothers in a suburban development fifteen miles from New York, say in a tone of quiet desperation, “the problem.” And the others knew, without words, that she was not talking about a problem with her husband, or her children, or her home. Suddenly they realized they all shared the same problem, the problem that has no name.
Which best describes the connotation of the word “desperation”?

-negative, because the woman is feeling confused
-negative, because the woman is expressing hopelessness
-positive, because the woman is expressing herself
-positive, because the woman and the mothers are in agreement

The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan talks about how empty were the lifes of all most women during the '50s and how it was considered as fulfillment for them according to society to be a wife and a mother.

After taking this in consideration de correct connotation of desperation is negative, because the woman is expressing hopelessness.

It has a negative impact because women were feeling unsatisfied with their lifes at the moment, this absolutely eliminates the last to options as a possible answer and the first option doesn't quite express what the woman was feeling or conveying.

I believe the correct answer would be a.) Imaginary or Unconfirmed. I chose this answer because the two words, imaginary and unconfirmed are the same in meaning. If something is imaginary we cannot utilize our senses to recognize it, same as with something that is unconfirmed where there is no tangible proof that it exists because there is no evidence that can be provided to our senses proving it is not imaginary.</span>

Nata [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

There were four social classes in Elizabethan England. Nobility were the highest social class below the Queen in Elizabethan England. Nobles were the lords and ladies. They were rich and powerful and were the smallest of all the social classes. There were only about 50 noble families during the reign of Elizabeth the First. To become a noble, a person had to be granted the title by the king or queen. The title of nobility was also passed through family blood lines. Once a person was a noble, they had to commit a serious crime in order to be stripped of the title. (1)

Answer: D. because he feels the exam was painfully tough

Explanation:

Verbal irony: a figure of speech when somebody means something other than what they said/they reality.

Paul says that the exam was as pleasant as a root canal, and root canals are not pleasant at all. This tells us that Paul did not find the exam nice, rather, he found it painful, hence he meant the opposite of what he actually said.

Write an essay on "wildlife" conservation​
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Wildlife, like trees, is also a domestic asset that not only helps to maintain the ecological balance but also benefits from financial, recreational and aesthetic points of perspective. There was a time when the number of wild animals was quite large when human interference was minimum and there was no issue with their safety or conservation. But, with the development of farming, settlement, industrial and other development activities, and primarily due to man’s greed, the number of wild animals gradually decreased and decreased. As a consequence, several animal species have become extinct and several are on the brink of being so. The Wildlife Conservation Essay is an insight into the requirements of conserving wildlife globally.

Wildlife Conservation Essay

Deforestation

Deforestation is also a major cause of wildlife loss. Mass murders of wild animals are taking place all over the globe for their meat, bones, fur, teeth, hair, skin, etc. The need for conservation of wildlife has now become a necessity.

Population growth, agricultural and livestock development, urban and road building, and pollution are among the many pressures on wildlife’s natural habitat. In addition to illegal hunting, the decrease of habitat and its degradation has endangered the biodiversity of the widespread areas.

Wildlife preservation does not imply blanket protection for all species of fauna and flora; rather, it means adequate, judicious control over the multiplication of crops and animals that communicate to provide a suitable atmosphere for the man whose very life is at risk today.
