Read the excerpt below from the essay "Invasion of the Screens: A Horror Story" about how teenagers spend too much time using el

ectronic gadgets. Then answer the question that follows.
Imagine a world of pale, wormlike humans who depend entirely on machines for their survival. They have lived underground for so long that, without digitally-enhanced contact lenses, they are basically blind. They have grown so unused to exercise that they can barely lift themselves to a sitting position. In fact, they often wonder, why move at all? For them and everyone they know, work and entertainment both happen through computers linked directly to their brains. The world around them is in grey, ugly ruins, but they don’t care; the world in their minds is full of beauty and excitement. As for human contact, they interact frequently with each other’s avatars online.

What is the best description of the emotional appeals in this excerpt?

1.They try to depress the audience by showing a dark, gloomy world.

2.They try to overwhelm the audience with a shocking, sad view of the future.

3. They strive to make the audience feel happy and cheerful about the future.

4.They strive to contrast today's world with that of the very troubled past.

What does Hamlet mean by "shuffled off this mortal coil"? dying living dreaming sleeping
Alina [70]

Answer:

A). Dying.

Explanation:

The phrase 'shuffled off this mortal coil' was uttered by Hamlet during his popular soliloquy 'To be or not to be.' It stands for 'dying or to die' as a result of the sufferings or troubles of this mortal life and this constant state of being in conflict. When Hamlet says this phrase, he is tired of the regular 'turmoils of his mortal life' and thus, he wishes to 'die.' Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

What is plagiarism? what forms does it take? why is it such a serious offense?
Kazeer [188]
Plagiarism is taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own.

The forms are Direct, Self, Mosaic, Accidental, and paraphrasing plagiarism.

It is such a serious defense because it is a copy of someone else’s work without credit and if you’re faking it as your own, there is big consequences.
