English

Answer:

Curley's wife suspected that Curley was the source of Lennie's bruises. But even though she knew that, she did not seem angry with him because she was waiting for her chance to set Lennie up for her own cause.

Explanation:

John Steinbeck's "Of Mice And Men" follows two workers George and Lennie in their life looking and moving from one working house to another. The story follows the two men, and how the Great Depression has been a disastrous life for everyone, especially the manual workers.

Lennie may be huge, but he is child-like, in that he has some disability. So, George acts as the 'protector' of the huge man. And Curley's wife took advantage of that. So, she would flirt with Lennie which made Lennie feel loved, wanted, and important. When Lennie got the bruises in his hand from fighting Curley, she did not say anything or even get angry. She knows that it wasn't a<em> "machine"</em> that gave the bruises, but she still chose to stay mum, continuing to flirt with Lennie all the while. This was done so that she will get her chance to set Lennie up, a weapon against her husband.

Why does justice Brennan agree with Gregory lee johnsons feelings about the flag?
Vlada [557]
I hope this answers your question..

The majority of the Court, according to Justice William Brennan, agreed with Johnson and held that flag burning constitutes a form of "symbolic speech" that is protected by the First Amendment. The majority noted that freedom of speech protects actions that society may find very offensive, but society's outrage alone is not justification for suppressing free speech.

In particular, the majority noted that the Texas law discriminated upon viewpoint, i.e., although the law punished actions, such as flag burning, that might arouse anger in others, it specifically exempted from prosecution actions that were respectful of venerated objects, e.g., burning and burying a worn-out flag. The majority said that the government could not discriminate in this manner based solely upon viewpoint.

In the Great Gatsby, how does the character Wolfshiem, relate to the theme of love and marriage that is seen throughout the book
kykrilka [37]

It should be noted that the character illustrated the theme as it was shown that the characters are married to the money and the power that it gives them.

<h3>What is a theme?</h3>

A theme simply means the main idea that's conveyed in a story. A theme is the central idea. It's simply what the author wants the readers to know.

In this case, the character Wolfshiem, relates to the theme of love and marriage. Marriage and love weren't depicted in the traditional sense. It showed that people married because of money.

Which two things must be accomplished by the introduction if the author is using safe order
Aleks [24]
It’s a shame, then, that the second part of Pauling’s advice tends to be overlooked: “Most of (your ideas) will be wrong, and what you have to learn is which ones to throw away.”  It’s certainly true that most ideas written on a Post-It note or submitted to an online system never get used, but the reason has more to do with a bias toward short-term payback in most innovation processes than informed filtration
