Answer:D. Cracks scored the concrete sidewalk, forcing the boys to skateboard carefully to school

Explanation:

The Darkling Thrush” is the article introduced in this question — it is a poem by Thomas Hardy the English poet and novelist.

The poem paints the picture of a world that is desolated, with the poem’s narrator and such focused on the cause of despair and hopelessness. 

The phrase ‘The tangled bine-stems scored the sky like strings of broken lyres’ is on the 5th and 6th line of the poem.

The use of the word ‘scored’ tells us what writer of the poem sees is destruction — as he stares at the ‘bine-stems. A simile indicating article "like" is key that helps compares the ‘bine-stems’ to ‘strings of broken lyres’ implying that that there is despair, no happiness, hopelessness or no music. Seems everything is just dead

Substituting "scored" with "like" in the context above we see that a"Cracks on roads like sidewalks does call for skaters to be careful.

How do stereotypes affect a way a culture lives
ra1l [238]

Answer:

" Stereotypes are one way by which history affects present life ".

Explanation:

In social psychology, a stereotype is a generalized belief about a particular category of people. It is an expectation that people might have about every person of a particular group.[citation needed] The type of expectation can vary; it can be, for example, an expectation about the group's personality, preferences, appearance or ability. Stereotypes are sometimes overgeneralized, inaccurate, and resistant to new information, but can sometimes be accurate.

While such generalizations about groups of people may be useful when making quick decisions, they may be erroneous when applied to particular individuals and are among the reasons for prejudicial attitudes.

Negative stereotypes can have harmful consequences for the quality of life of older adults and can also result in a major loss to society. With increases in life expectancy as well as reduced infirmity, many adults are aging well, but negative stereotypes of aging may put society at risk for losing the contributions of these vital and knowledgeable people. The potential individual and social effects underscore the need to understand the content of aging stereotypes in terms of their accuracy and applications. It is especially important to understand how negative stereotypes exacerbate poor performance in areas in which decline is real. That is, beliefs that memory is bad in old age can reduce motivation when increased motivation is needed instead. A framework for predicting and interpreting individuals' behavior is imperative to understand how aging stereotypes drive behavior in both positive and negative ways.

( I don't like stereotypes, I have never discriminated anyone, I consider everyone as my friends. )
