Is a column similar to a stalactite and stalagmite

English
1 answer:
Aloiza [94]3 years ago
8 0

I guess a stalactite and a stalagmite could be referenced to a column. Although, only some could be considered column-like.

Stalactites hang from the ceiling and only on occasion do they ever reach the ground. I, myself have toured some caves and have witnessed stalactites reaching the ground, so in that way they could be referenced to a column. But the majority of them, that don't reach the ground, aren't very column-like.

Same goes with stalagmites, but these protrude from the ground, rather than hanging from the ceiling. I've never personally seen a stalagmite that has reached the ceiling of a cave and resembled a column. But I wouldn't doubt that there are a few out there.

So basically in conclusion, the majority of stalagmites and stalactites are not  similar to columns. But the few that can go to cave floor to ceiling can resemble a column.

Hope this helps! Stay safe and stay healty! :3

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

1. the acceptance of the church's authority

2. The Pardoner’s disregard for the poor reveals the Church’s hypocrisy

Explanation:

1. The feature of medieval life reflected here is the acceptance of the church's authority.

The Canterbury Tales has about 24 stories with about 17,000 lines. The work was written by Geoffrey Chaucer Geoffrey around a period of 1387 and 1400. 

The Canterbury Tales is medieval literature and has great poetic power and entertainment value. The tales gives insight into the different social classes of that century, including their clothes, languages and the recreational activities of the time.

2. Based on the excerpt taken from this book, I can say that the statement that describes the satire here is The Pardoner’s disregard for the poor reveals the Church’s hypocrisy.

Chaucer used Satire to expose the hypocrisy of people and institutions who instead of reliving the poor from their poverty and leading them on a part of spirituality, try to make profits out of their suffering and show less concern about their suffering. The pardoner is a part of the church and should share in the suffering of others but instead he insists on getting the best food and drinks from people in poverty. He also sells redemption at a price

Answer:

Title page from The Generall Historie of Virginia, New-England, and the Summer Isles: with the names of the Adventurers, Planters, and Governours, written by “Captaine John Smith, Sometymes Governour in Those Countryes & Admirall of New England.”

Captain John Smith's journals offer a compelling eyewitness view of the Chesapeake Bay in 1608. They describe his adventures in vivid detail, recounting where he went, what he saw and the people he met. There are successes and conflicts, wonder and worry, smooth sailing and storms, hospitality and hostility, and near starvation. His journals, published as a book in 1612, introduced this part of the world to the English for the first time and triggered a wave of colonization. The journals let people today see the Chesapeake as it was four centuries ago.

Captain John Smith's Letter (1608)

John Smith's first writings about Jamestown were sent to England on a supply ship, along with an early map, even before his landmark voyages. This account was published as A True Relation of Such Occurrences and Accidents of Noate As Hath Happened in Virginia.

Journals of Smith's Voyages
