Answer: A. He does not approve of them.

Thomas Gradgrind is a character in the novel <em>Hard Times</em> by Charles Dickens. He is a mechanized, monotonous person. He loves hard, dry facts and is of an unusual rigidity. His philosophy of calculating rationality does not approve of horse riders. He is a product of the Industrial Revolution, as he believes everything can be mechanized and rationalized, and that people can be trained in a way that they come to resemble machines.

Check all of the items that are characteristic of a short story.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

  • <em>Can be read in one sitting</em>
  • <em>Has one plot</em>
  • <em>Deals with a single problem. </em>

Explanation:

A<u> short story</u> is a narrative piece that presents ideas and themes in a lesser length. Since it has a <u>shorter scope</u> it must present <u>one plot</u>, deal with a <u>single problem</u>, avoid overcomplicating things, and should explore a precise theme through specific narrative devices. A <u>short story</u> rarely develops both main and minor characters, merely because of its length.

Novels, on the other hand, can develop both main and minor characters, and focus on multiple issues throughout the story.

Convection is the procedure by which warmth is move starting with one spot then onto the next through the development of liquids. It is High barometrical weight, Low ability to hold water, Low lightness and the propensity to sink on account of its high thickness.

The warm air that ascents high into the climate over the land in the end moves over the water, chills off, sinks, and afterward pushes toward the land once more. This daytime development of air almost a waterway is brought about by convection. This pushes the less thick (lighter) air over the water higher into the environment.

Next, you’ll compare the speeches by Lewis and Lincoln. Begin by recording each author’s purpose, audience, and overall message
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the

great task remaining before us —that, from these

honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause

for which they here, gave the last full measure of

devotion—that we here highly resolve these dead shall

not have died in vain; that the nation, shall have a new

birth of freedom, and that government of the people by

the people for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate---we can not consecrate---

we can not hallow---this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who

struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add

or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say

here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living,

rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who

fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be

here dedicated to the great task remaining before us---that from

these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for

which they gave the last full measure of devotion---that we here

highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain---that this

nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom---and that

government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not

perish from the earth.

Explanation:

Thank You

Please pick me as the brainliest.
