The answer to your question would be that the verbs that correctly complete the sentence are the following one: Were and Are. Therefore, the sentence would be as follows: Solar flares were the cause of the difficulty, and new instruments are the solution.

The subjects of the two clauses are plural noun phrases, so the verbs must also be plural for subjects and predicates to agree in number. Subject verb agreement means that the subject and the verb must agree in number. This means both need to be singular or both need to be plural.

Which two lines in this excerpt from John Milton’s Paradise Lost support the claim that Satan perceived women as being inferior
Lyrx [107]

In this excerpt, we can cleary see how Satan perceived men as superior than women because he claims in favour of men using big and good adjectives to describe them, adjectives related to strong people and so on. Inteasted, he describes women with soft adjectives treating them as delicated people, warm, affectionate ones, leading to believe they can not be strong as men. To support this, we can use the following lines: "<em>The image of their glorious Maker shon, Truth, Wisdome, Sanctitude severe and pure, Severe, but in true filial freedom plac't; Whence true autoritie in men; though both Not equal, as their sex not equal seemd;"</em>

One interpretation of the story "The Lightning-Rod Man" is that Melville is criticizing certain Christian missionaries of the ti
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The answer is yes. Melville is really criticizing the Christian Missionaries.

Explanation:

Because he uses many biblical, scientific, and mythological themes to built his  story. The lighting -rod man is a representation of the missionares, while the narrator represents Melville beliefs. The center idea of the story is that the christianism convertion is destroying the cultures, values, and customs established before. The convertion is not about real spiritually, but about imposing the missionaries way of living. The narrator tries to dissuade his neighbors from believing  in the lightining rod man, Melville believes in a God full of love and not in a God or religion imposed by fear.

Based on this excerpt from the poem "The Solitary Reaper" by William Wordsworth, what can be determined about the speaker and th
prohojiy [21]

In this excerpt <u>the speaker expresses his frustration with the fact that even though he doesn't understand the language in which the tune is being sung, he still wishes to comprehend the message</u>. He wants to understand what the singing solitary reaper is singing about.

The conflict here is that they don't speak the same language.

We can see it more clearly in this verse: "Will no one tell me what she sings?" (he doesn't speak the language); and in the rest of the stanza, he keeps on wondering what the song may mean.

Hope this helps!
