Answer:

D• Teacher has underestimated the son

Explanation:

According to the father, even though he may be just 5 years of age, he had <em>"already been through quite an education compared with his peers in Western society</em>". Just because he is shy and quiet in the classroom, that doesn't mean he is a "<em>slow learner</em>" like the teacher had labelled him to be. It may be that he finds it uncomfortable being among the many 'white' kids and not around his usual circle of "Red Indian" people he had been with since his birth. One is bound to feel out of place in a new environment and that is exactly what the boy may be feeling. And so, the father argues that the teacher is underestimating his son and that his son is no different from his "white" classmates, just that he may be feeling isolated from the other kids.

What is a theme in the story "A birthday tradition"?
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Focus on the things that truly matter.

and

"Justine recognized that the tradition of spending her birthday with her grandmother was way more important than wearing trendsetting attire for a day..."

Explanation:

<h2>Question 1:</h2>

Always be honest with those you love. - This is not the correct answer, as the story explains that sometimes we do not have to say our completely honest opinion about something if it is minor, and it might hurt people we love.

<em> Focus on the things that truly matter.</em> - <u>This is the correct answer.</u> The story explains how small, everyday inconveniences and embarrassment do not matter that much compared to the health, family, and happiness of the people we love.<u> We should be grateful for big things that we have and value them, instead of focusing on small negative things that bother us (such as outfit we do not like).</u>

Traditions change and evolve over time. - This is an incorrect answer. The story shows how small, harmless traditions can be invaluable and how respecting them can make someone happy.

If something is wrong, take action. - This is not the correct answer. The story does not talk about correcting the wrongdoings of someone else.

<h2> Question 2: </h2>

"She had taken the items from the gift box, put them on, and posed for pictures with her grandmother, as was customary, but then, Justine hid her face . . . " - This is not the correct answer. This quotation only talks about past birthdays and how Justine acted.

<em>"Justine recognized that the tradition of spending her birthday with her grandmother was way more important than wearing trendsetting attire for a day . . . " </em> - <u>This is the correct answer. </u>This quotation shows how <u>Justine realizes the significance of the important things that matter, which is here spending a birthday with her beloved grandmother.</u> <u>She should not have been worried about small things, like being embarrassed by untrendy clothes,</u> because those things do not truly matter in life.

"Justine felt as though she not only sparkled but also glowed in the dark . . . " - This is an incorrect answer. The quotation only explains how Justine felt in the clothes.

"It had been an annual tradition since Justine was five years old. Her maternal grandmother always surprised her with a brand new outfit on her birthday." - This is an incorrect answer. This quotation only reflects on explaining what was the birthday tradition in the title.

FOR K12 HALLPPPPPP!!98 pointtssss brainliesttttt
Katyanochek1 [597]

The Golden Fleece has frequently been compared to the ram sacrifice substituted for Isaac in Genesis 22:9-18, as detailed on my page about the Golden Fleece as a divine covenant. Similarly, some have thought that the ship Argo was in fact a garbled recollection of Noah's Ark.

But these are hardly the only places where the Argonaut myth has been thought to cross paths with the Bible. In the field of "alternative" history, there is no end to such comparisons. The Russian Anatoly Fomenko, who believes that the Middle Ages were a British invention designed to deny Russia her true glory, believes the Argonauts' story was a virtually scene-by-scene replay of the Bible, including elements of Exodus and Genesis, and much more:

The legends [of the Argonauts] resemble the accounts of wars and campaigns of both Joshua and Alexander the Great to a great extent. The myth of the Argonauts might be yet another duplicate of medieval chronicles describing the wars of the [12th to 14th] centuries [...]

Fomenko also thinks Jason, Medea, and the snake parallel Adam, Eve, and the serpent, a suggestion made long before by Edward Burnaby-Greene in his 1780 translation of the Argonautica of Apollonius. Greene thought the lovers' escape from Colchis paralleled the expulsion from Eden in Milton's Paradise Lost (p. 147).  Hope this helps! ~ Autumn :)
