Answer:

Here are some quotes:

"About half way between West Egg and New York the motor road hastily joins the railroad and runs beside it for a quarter of a mile, so as to shrink away from a certain desolate area of land. This is a valley of ashes—a fantastic farm where ashes grow like wheat . . . where ashes take the forms of houses. . . ."

"But above the gray land and the spasms of bleak dust which drift endlessly over it, you perceive, after a moment, the eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg. The eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg are blue and gigantic. . . . But his eyes, dimmed a little by many paintless days under the sun and rain, brood on over the solemn dumping ground."

"I have been drunk just twice in my life, and the second time was that afternoon; so everything that happened has a dim, hazy cast over it. . . . I sat down . . . to read a chapter of Simon Called Peter—either it was terrible stuff or the whiskey distorted things, because it didn’t make any sense to me."

"‘Neither of them can stand the person they’re married to.’

‘Can’t they?’"

"‘Can’t stand them.’ She looked at Myrtle and then at Tom. ‘What I say is, why go on living with them if they can’t stand them? If I was them I’d get a divorce and get married to each other right away.’

‘It’s really his wife that’s keeping them apart. She’s a Catholic, and they don’t believe in divorce.’

Daisy was not a Catholic, and I was a little shocked at the elaborateness of the lie."

"I wanted to get out and walk eastward toward the Park. . . . Yet high over the city our line of yellow windows must have contributed their share of human secrecy to the casual watcher in the darkening streets, and I was him too, looking up and wondering. I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life."

Match each analogy to the type of word relationship it illustrates. part-to-whole relationship item-category relationship cause
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

part-to-whole relationship: tail:mouse / scale:crocodile

item-category relationship: Monday:weekday / Saturday:weekend

cause-and-effect relationship: cut:bleed / burn:irritate

Explanation:

In an analogy, we find a relationship between different things, something that connects them. Let's analyze the analogies above.

  • A mouse is a whole that can be divided into several parts: ears, tails, paws, etc. The same goes for a crocodile: teeth, scales, stomach. Thus, with tail:mouse and scale:crocodile, we have a relationship of part to whole.
  • There are different days in a week: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc. Those days can be divided under different categories. Monday, for instance, can be categorized as a weekday. However, Saturday would be categorized under weekend since it is not a weekday. Thus, with Monday:weekday and Saturday:weekend, we have an item-category relationship.
  • Finally, if you cut yourself, you will most likely bleed. Bleeding is the effect of being cut. Cutting is the cause of bleeding. The same goes for getting burned (cause) and the skin getting irritated (effect). Thus, with cut:bleed and burn:irritate, the relationship is of cause and effect.

Based on the information you read in the “What is GIS?” article, describe the purpose and function of GIS. Your answer should be
OlgaM077 [116]
The GIS is the Geographic Information System which is used for map making and related to the GPS to get the locations of things which go on the map. One advantage of the GIS is that it can store many types of information for a point on the map and hovering over that point can give one a list of the different types of information available. For example, a drill hole collar ie a discrete point can have the co-ordinates of the hole collar, the diameter of the hole, the inclination of the hole, the azimuth of the hole, dip tests on the hole, and even the assays if necessary.
