Answer: Confirmation bias

Explanation:

If all the sources Felix has collected support his claim, it means that he has ignored any accounts that might contradict his claim.

Confirmation bias refers to the inclination to only consider the information that supports the claim one wants to defend while avoiding the information that could invalidate it.

To ensure his research is not biased, Felix should acknowledge sources that contradict his claim.

My first day at school write an essay​
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

I remember clearly not letting go of my mother's hand, hesitant to go in the classroom. On my first day, I got up excited and put on my uniform for the first time. The feeling it gave me was so memorable, I can never forget it. As it was my first day, both my parents went to drop me off.

I remember seeing the classroom full of little children. Some crying while the others playing with others. I looked at my mother and gave her the look that I didn’t want them to leave. They had to go so I kept crying but eventually, my teacher consoled me.

Once I settled in the class, I talked with the other kids and started playing with them. The colorful walls of the classroom fascinated me a lot. We got many toys to play with so it all the other kids also got distracted and stopped crying.

What does the character Everyman suggest about the common English person of the time period?
dimulka [17.4K]
The play Everyman was written in the 1400s. It is what is known as a "Morality" play. Its aim is to teach people how to live and how to save their souls. The character Everyman was a common English person of the period the play was written in. He had neglected his spiritual life. He repents of his sins and changes his ways in time to save his soul before he dies. The common English person of the day, as well as most people today, don't really worry about the long term consequences of the lives they live and the impact their behaviour will have on their afterlife. This play draws our attention to the fact that we actually need to consider the way we live before we die.
