The 20th century opened with great hope but also with some apprehension<span>, for the new century marked the final approach to a new millennium. For many, humankind was entering upon an unprecedented era. </span>H.G. Wells<span>’s utopian studies, the aptly titled </span>Anticipations of the Reaction of Mechanical and Scientific Progress upon Human Life and Thought<span> (1901) and </span>A Modern Utopia<span> (1905), both captured and qualified this optimistic mood and gave expression to a common </span>conviction<span> that science and technology would transform the world in the century ahead. To achieve such transformation, outmoded institutions and ideals had to be replaced by ones more suited to the growth and liberation of the human spirit. </span>
I would say the most logical one to put in a fictional narrative would be the second one about the sun mocking the moon. personification is seen usually in fictional works, so it would make more sense :) hope this helps!
I do not believe a longer school calendar is a good idea for a few reasons. One reason is that I believe kids need to have time to be kids and have some time off of school. Also, students wouldn’t tire out as easily with the ongoing overload of school. A con can be that childcare could be difficult to find when they are not in school and also that some kids do better with consistency and no break.
An author or writer uses his counterclaim as his refutation because a counterclaim is literally what it says. What the writer or author is going against in his writing and which side he is opposing or going with.
