Answer:

1. I expected the play to end with some philosophical or moral message, as it actually ended, as it shows that alienation, paranoia and panic make people easy targets to manipulate.

2. I thought that there were no aliens when at the beginning of the play, where the neighborhood was affected by factors that can happen normally, such as the drop in electricity supply, the existence of introverted people and problems with cars and phones.

3. I believed that aliens existed when the shadow that took over the city appeared and when the aliens did appear.

Explanation:

"The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" tells the story of a city that had several problems with electricity supply and telephone and television signals, after a giant shadow overtook the city and a very strong flash was seen by all. Cars also began to malfunction, leaving all residents concerned. The townspeople started to think that this was caused by aliens and started to distrust each other, thinking that the neighbors were beings from another planet. This caused great hysteria and paranoia in everyone, driving the city into complete chaos. In the end we learned that the shadow and the malfunction of things were being caused by aliens themselves, who were trying to discover how panic and paranoia allowed human beings to be manipulated.

What is the meaning of this aphorism from Pain's The American Crisis? Wisdom is not the purchase of a day. a. people cannot buy
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

d. Nothing comes easily.

Explanation:

Thomas Paine's <em>The American Crisis</em> is an essay that he wrote showing his support for the ongoing war and revolt against the British government. In it, he also stressed the need to keep on fighting until the American colonists get their freedom and steer clear of the British authority.

Aphorisms are sayings or expressions that relay the simple truth of life. It contains a general truth of what the reality is. And in Paine's aphorism <em>"Wisdom is not the purchase of a day"</em>, he means that <u>nothing comes easy for a successful effort</u>. This line is used in his appeal to the colonists to generate greater force to fight against the enemy, and that it must be done if the colonies are to succeed in their war against the British. <u>Like wisdom which is attained after numerous attempts and sacrifice, the colonies must also be ready to sacrifice their all if they are to gain their freedom from the British rule.</u>

Why should you use sources when writing a composition
Rasek [7]

Whenever you use other writers' ideas, however, you must acknowledge your sources. Doing so allows you to distinguish between your ideas and those of others; it directs your readers to relevant sources; and it allows you to give credit where credit is due.  It is important to properly reference and cite your sources to avoid plagiarism and to give credit for original ideas.

Putting source material in your own words shows readers that you have a true understanding of that material. Also, to restate in your own words the full meaning of a phrase or passage helps readers understand difficult, complex, jargon-riddled or ambiguous passages.
