Answer: She ended up somewhere else

Explanation: Coordinates are formed by latitude and longitude. Latitude is a number that will indicate your north-south position between -90º and 90º (negative is south and positive is north). Meanwhile, your longitude will indicate your east-west position between -180º and 180º (negative is west and positive is east). These indications are crucial for flying because they tell you exactly where you are and where you need to go. So, if Amelia Earhart had the plan to fly somewhere, but someone gave her the wrong coordinates, she probably ended up somewhere else. And, since she got lost, she also probably ran out of fuel and food. This is why a wrong number would have been so catastrophic for her.

mylen [45]

I believe the answer is: D. Austro-Hungarian domination in the Balkans.

Balkans is located in a very strategic region that connected the 4 Seas ( Black Sea, the Mediterranean, the Adriatic and the Aegean.)
Whoever dominated this region would control the flow of international trades toward almost all existing continent in the world. Because of this, there was a huge tension across Europe regarding who's going to control this region.

Answer:

What theme does the motif of hands represent in the excerpt and throughout the story?

The theme the motif of hands represent is the indistinct line between dreams and reality and also the perpetual struggle against fate and the idea of justice .

Explanation:

The setting of the story is in northern Alabama during the Civil War, where both Union and Confederate soldiers rarely clashed but many Confederates hailed from. The story was first published in 1890.

Some of the most important themes in the short story are the distortion of time, reality versus imagination and death which are explored with the sub-theme that war is unnatural namely the American Civil War. Ambrose Bierce liked irony and to have a twist at the end of his stories.

Parts of "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" are narrated from a strictly objective point of view by what is customarily called a third-person omniscient narrator, presumably the author Ambrose Bierce himself. The narrative remains in Farquhar's mind and his point of view almost to the end of the first section.

Answer:

Authoritative

Explanation:

There are 4 different styles of parenting:

Authoritarian
Authoritative
Permissive
Uninvolved

Both Authoritative and authoritarian styles of parenting focus on authority, this means that they set rules and expect their children to follow the rules.

However, the authoritarian parenting is a cold style of parenting which doesn't allow for questions from the kids ("because I say so") so there is a one directional style of communication. These parents focus on punishing the wrong behavior and they believe in total control and lack of independence from their children.

Authoritative parents are nurturing so they are warmer than the Authoritarian parents, they allow children to ask why so they explain limits by reasoning with their kids, they also focus on teaching the right behaviors rather than punishing the wrong ones and when there are wrong behaviors they focus on consequences rather than on punishments.

Permissive parents think "kids will be kids" so they tend to be very forgiving when it comes to rules and they don't usually set consequences, but, when they do, they don't really stick to them.

Uninvolved parents are cold and distant but also they don't expect much from their children so, basically, their children lack attention, and we can say they are neglected.

In this example, Lucas is fighting over a toy. His father breaks the fight and explains to Lucas how he could have avoided the fight (instead of scolding), Lucas is encouraged to share his feelings and share with his brother.

We can see that there are rules in this family (you are not supposed to fight) and that Lucas' father expects Lucas to follow those rules. However, Lucas' father reasons with him and teaches him the right behavior (share with his brother) rather than punishes the wrong behavior (the fight), he seems to be nurturing by the way he deals with the situation so we can say he is most likely and Authoritative parent.
