<span>Silas was compared to a spider many times throughout the book. The statement that is presented is True. </span>Silas Marner is in one sense the story of the title character, but it is also very much about the community of Raveloe in which he lives. Much of the novel’s dramatic force is generated by the tension between Silas and the society of Raveloe.
The answer is Fossil Fuels
I hope this helped you out ;)
<span>Obviously, Eric didn’t put into consideration the kind of attitudes
and behavior of a business person working for a company in a developing
country. Putting into consideration the
mindset of the importer in a developing country for instance, the
decision-making process would take more time when it comes to evaluating
proposals, for instance. Jumping into a contract immediately is something the
importer would not be open to as taking risks for him is not an option because he
would have to study the feasibility of selling the imported products, how much
it would cost, et. al. And all of these things take time and hence, he would
need a business partner who would patiently work with him in coming up with the
most cost-efficient package that would be beneficial for both of them. The
importer would definitely shy away from an aggressive person who would just
dictate his proposal and would not even give signs that he’s open to
collaborate for a longer period of time before the importer can make a final
decision. Context cues and behaviors mean a lot for some businessmen. </span>
Those states are considered "swing states". This is where effectively both candidates are at a statistical tie in terms of the number of votes. The state could either swing toward red (republican) or blue (democrat). Also, historically swing states tend to be unpredictable and lead to various speculation as to what will happen on election day. This means that the states get more media coverage compared to other non-swing states. Non-swing states are where one party dominates another in terms of votes, so the party doesn't have to focus money/attention on trying to get out the vote. The outcome is already decided, so they move onto more important priorities.
