Answer:
I think the answer is to persuade.
might be to inform as well.
Explanation:
I think it is to persuade because the author asks the question "why should a car be any different?" as to let the readers imagination run with it.
I also think it may be to inform because the author says "driving while talking on the phone is dangerous" so the author could be saying I don't think its a good idea to have a phone in the car and this is why.
I could be wrong but that is what I think

Answer:
The mechanisms used to produce sound vary from one family of cetaceans to another. Marine mammals, such as whales, dolphins, and porpoises, are much more dependent on sound for communication and sensation than are land mammals, because other senses are of limited effectiveness in water. Sight is less effective for marine mammals because of the particulate way in which the ocean scatters light. Smell is also limited, as molecules diffuse more slowly in water than in air, which makes smelling less effective. However, the speed of sound is roughly four times greater in water than in the atmosphere at sea level. As sea mammals are so dependent on hearing to communicate and feed, environmentalists and cetologists are concerned that they are being harmed by the increased ambient noise in the world's oceans caused by ships, sonar and marine seismic surveys.[2]
It is possible to argue that the sentence that best describes the culture group interactions between Gulliver and the Brobdingnagians is that they are kind to Gulliver but do not treat him as an equal. Despite the fact that he was taught their language by a nine years old girl - Glumdalclitch - who stood ¬not above 40 feet tall, being small for her age" his conversations with the King proves that the Brobdingnagians consider humans in general as below themselves, the King consider the English particularly "the most pernicious race of little odious vermin that nature ever suffered to crawl upon the surface of the earth". The king also scalds Gulliver when he tries to o interest the statesman in the use of gunpowder.
They find human institutions way below their own and they do not favour too much interaction or contact with humans, their laws are simple and straightforward, contrary to most human institutions; they value reason over emotions and it can be said that they are a race of mathematicians, being also profoundly interested in poetry and literature.
Answer:
Aeolus is refusing Odysseus's request for assistance.
Explanation:
The Odyssey is Homer's one of two epic poems, the other being Iliad.
In Book 10 named Circe, Odysseus and his crew during their adventurous journey had to stay with Aeolus (A king), who had power to control and command winds. He assisted Odysseus with a bag of wind containing all winds but west wind. Once when Odysseus was sleeping his men opened the bag considering it filled with some treasure. As a result a storm from the released winds hit upon their ship and took them back to Aeolus. Odysseus ask again for assistance, but Aeolus refused to help them because they had drawn the ire of the gods, saying;
<em>"It's a crime to host a man or speed him on his way
</em>
<em>when the blessed deathless gods despise him so."</em>
