Which best describes the colonists’ view of their relationship with the British government?
kupik [55]
Colonists were very dissatisfied with their relationship with the British government. One of the major issues was that Britain's wars usually transferred to the colonies and the second biggest issue being that decisions were being made about the colonies in the British Parliament without any representatives of the colonies.

What can those unfamiliar experiences/customs add our experiences, and how can they help shape us as people?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer: Our beliefs and needs are the strongest factors that govern our behaviour. Ultimately, it all comes down to beliefs because a need is also a belief- a belief that we lack something.

When we’re born, our brains aren’t fully developed. We’re ready to collect information from our environment and form beliefs based on that information. We’re ready to form those neural connections that are going to guide us for the rest of our lives.

If you’ve carefully observed a child grow then you know what I’m talking about. A child absorbs information from its environment so fast and at such a high rate that by age 6, thousands of beliefs form in its mind- beliefs that will help the kid interact with the world.

(hopefully this is what you mean)

What description BEST fits Beowulf himself? A. arrogant, superhuman hero B. intellectual, modest warrior C. bold, strong nemesis
netineya [11]

1) Beowulf as a loyal, deserving assistant possesses great Germanic heroic attributes as pride, loyalty and courtesy. He explores his heroism through three difficult phases with Grendel, Grendel’s mother, and the dragon. His reputation for bravery is enhanced when he defeats Grendel and Grendel’s bother with courage and establishes himself as a hero.

2) The recurring use of alliteration in Beowulf enhances the imagery and rhythm in the poem.

Alliteration is a literary device, repetition of the consonants in row, sound stressing syllable of a phrase. In Beowulf narrator engages the listener by the use of alliteration.

Example: “ Marshes, and made his home in hell,” in “The Wrath of Grendel”, describes and creates the image of Grendel’s home as frightening, horrible and a hellish place. Such description creates a sense of fear among listeners.

3) The magnitude of the Beowulf hero's battle with the dragon is increased because Beowulf is not as young as he once was. Beowulf’s transition between his two phases of life- youth and age, separated by fifty years, gradually is dictated by the Germanic heroic code.
