Answer:

She chose the word 'dormant to describe the inactivity in the symbolic fields. Just as the birds in the fields entered a state of inactivity, so did the nation suffer unproductivity because of the war.

Explanation:

In the poem, the author describes the condition of the warring sides between East and West Berlin. Dormancy was used to describe the fields highlighting the fact that there was inactivity in the land due to the continued fighting between the nations.

No significant progress could be made because the war sponsored by the big nations would not allow that. Birds were known to be dormant for several days, months, or years. So also, was the troubled German nation then.

BRUTUS. He is not doubted.—A word, Lucillius.
vova2212 [387]

Note: This is a check-all-that-apply question. That is why there are two correct answers.

Answer:

3. The conflict between Brutus and Cassius is growing in intensity.

4. Brutus now suspects Cassius because he has become too polite.

Explanation:

This passage was taken from the Shakespearean play "Julius Caesar". Brutus and Cassius were not only friends but also accomplices in betraying and killing Caesar. <u>As the plot progresses, however, the two characters begin to grow distant as the conflict between them grows in intensity.</u>

Brutus's loyal friend Lucillius has payed Cassius a visit, and is now being questioned by Brutus about the way Cassius has treated him.<u> Lucillius makes it clear Cassius was civil, but not at all affectionate. Brutus now begins to suspect Cassius's cold politeness, seeing it as a sign of their friendship being damaged.</u>

vekshin1

Answer:

The answer all depends on your current living conditions and the amount of money you posses. IF you had a steady and secure job that paid a lot and you had a good house with constant food source then yes. IF you have a job that doesn't pay a lot then obviously no. Working only one or two days today would be hard, and I speak from a bit of experience as my parents work 6 jobs and we still struggle sometimes. So the answer is it depends on the type of job you have.
