Answer:

<u>even in great abundance humans are always in need of getting more and more with the fear of death.</u>

Explanation:

The author of this quote, Alexis de Tocqueville spoke based on what he observed in society.

In simple words, he noticed that people have this fear that they'll soon die and would be prevented from enjoying life's pursuits, even when they have attained wealth, so they want to try every worldly welfare.

Why does juliet call the moon inconstant?
sergij07 [2.7K]
Basically it's because Romeo tried to swear and make a promise on the moon, and she's saying that's not a good idea because it's always changing in either size, shape, or position. It's just not reliable, especially not when you're trying to tell someone that you love that you mean something so deeply. It make it seem like the promise is quite temporary or not as strongly built together as it should be.

Choose the best topic sentence for the following example paragraph.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

D - Although I have a lot of friends, there are only a few people at

school who have really seen the true me.​

Explanation:

This sentence best summarizes the work ahead, introducing the idea that he will discuss his friends, and the few people who have seen his true self. A makes sense for the subject, but introduces the topic too early for it to make sense. B makes an unrelated point, and would not work as a topic sentence but as an end point. C... I honestly don't know what this option says.
