Answer:

While I agree that sometimes getting a ride can be easier, there are many benefits to walking that cannot be experienced with other modes of transportation. For example, walking outside allows me to breathe in the fresh air, get some exercise, and appreciate the outdoors, all at the same time. Thoreau points out that walking can make us feel free.

Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian, two of his greatest works are: "Resistance to Civil Government" (also known as "Civil Disobedience") and "The Mask of Anarchy". His ideals can be summarized by this statement: “the Government should not have more power than the bestowed by its citizens”.

Henry David Thoreau was even imprisoned for refusing to pay taxes in protest for the Mexican-American War and the slavery.

Thoreau was an idealist; he opposed the oppression and tyranny from the government and I think that more people like him should exist for we need more free thinkers to defend the common citizen from the oppressive government we sometimes have.

But for now let us focus on his naturalist points of view, he loved nature and all contact with it, he spent a very long time in isolation in a cottage in the woods to get in contact with nature in a deeper sense.

<em>I think walking is an excellent exercise, but we need to be specific about the kind of walking we can get. There is walking inside of the house in a walking machine of any kind, there is walking on the streets, there is walking on the park, on the beach. I think the best place to walk is a good, away from the city forest, where you can hear yourself breathing, where you can concentrate on nothing more than the nature surrounding you, or as Thoreau would say: "</em><em>I wish to speak a word (with) Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness". </em><em>Walking as a means of exercise is good but walking to become, for a couple of hours at least, a part of nature, is the real thing. As Thoreau would put it : I want to become </em><em> "a part and parcel of Nature, rather than a member of society. "</em>

Which mathematical concepts did Euler's legacy include? Check all that apply.
Nataly_w [17]
The mathematical concepts that Leonhard Euler's legacy included are as follows:

The formalization of function notation

The notation for the imaginary unit

The notation for the base of the natural logarithm

Remember, that all of Euler's legacy included the introduction of the concept of functions as well as the proper way to write them within a mathematical formula by using the notation f(x). Before his formalization of the notation, functional relationships were referred to by just one letter, F, or with Greek letters omitting the parentheses, φx. In fact, Euler spelled out much of the mathematical notation we use today, including the letter "e" for the base of the natural logarithm (also known as Euler's number), the letter "I" to denote the imaginary unit, and the Greek letter "Σ" for summations. He also encouraged the use of the Greek letter "π" to signify the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.

What events or conflict happen in the Life of Pi to emphasize the theme?
german

Answer:

The major conflict is related to Pi's fight for survival after he is stranded at sea when the ship that he and his family are travelling to Canada on sinks. To resolve this conflict, he has to face both internal and external challenges. The biggest conflict Pi faces are against the natural environment. Pi also faces terrifying weather conditions that make life at sea unpredictable. Pi describes a storm that ''came on slowly one afternoon. The clouds looked as if they were stumbling along before the wind, frightened. The sea took its cue. It started rising and falling in a manner that made my heart sink.'' The storm destroys the raft and many of the supplies on the lifeboat. He also faces many other challenges, such as being forced to battle the elements, animals, and a carnivorous island while stranded at sea. This links directly to the theme, which is about struggling to survive through difficult odds. The shipwrecked inhabitants of the little lifeboat don’t simply give up: they actively fight against it. Pi abandons his lifelong vegetarianism and eats fish to sustain himself. Orange Juice, the peaceful orangutan, fights ferociously against the hyena. Even the severely wounded zebra battles to stay alive; his slow, painful struggle clearly shows the sheer strength of his life force. As Martel makes clear in his novel, living creatures will often do unexpected, and sometimes heroic things to survive. However, they will also do barbaric things if pressed. The hyena’s treachery and the blind Frenchman’s turn toward cannibalism show just how far creatures will go when faced with the possibility of extinction.

Hope this helped!
