Scientists know that chimpanzees rank high in intelligence among animals. Even so, they are not always prepared for the lightnin

g-quick
thinking a chimp sometimes does. Take the time an experimenter hung a banana from the ceiling of an empty room, five feet above the chimp's
reach. Then he scattered boxes on the floor. What would the chimp do? Would he stack the boxes until they were high enough so that he could
climb on them to reach the banana? The chimp had an idea of his own. He took one look at the banana; then he grabbed the man by the seat of the
pants and dragged him back to a spot directly beneath the fruit with one leap, he jumped on the shoulders of the man and grabbed the fruit. All
this took a fraction of the time he would have needed to stack up the boxes.

The correct answer to what do Bixby's expressions suggest about his character is the last option: He has a natural, highly witty sense of humor.

When Bixby says things like <em>"By the great Caesar's ghost"</em> or <em>"you don't know enough to pilot a cow down a lane"</em>, it becomes clear that he has a <em>funny, comical and somehow inventive character.</em> His expressions are <em>jokes or puns</em> that seem to be <em>natural</em>, they appear to be <em>common or usual in his speech</em> and to come intuitively. So, the correct answer to what the expressions suggest about Bixby's character is that <em>he has a natural, highly witty sense of humor.</em>

The correct answer couldn't be the first option, <em>"He has a large and somewhat imposing personality"</em> because there is <em>nothing imposing about the comments Bixby does</em>. He is, indeed, a little bit acid, but not at all imposing. On the contrary,<em> he asks for Moses' help and says that he believes him.</em> Therefore, the correct answer couldn't be "He has a large and somewhat imposing personality".

The correct answer couldn't be the second option, <em>"He does not get along well with any other people"</em>, because there is <em>nothing on his way of speaking which indicates that his jokes, puns or way of expressing himself are not well excepted by people.</em> On the contrary, he seems to be acid, humorous, <em>but also friendly.</em> Thus, the correct answer couldn't be "He does not get along well with any other people".

The correct answer couldn't be the third option, <em>"He is extremely well read and well educated"</em> because Bixby shows <em>no signs</em> of that. On the contrary, <em>when he speaks, his expressions are informal and conversational.</em> So, the correct answer couldn't be "He is extremely well read and well educated".

Ber [7]

Answer and Explanation:

King James expressed his desire to sponsor Shakespeare's theater company and, furthermore, showed a desire to change the name of the company, which was done quickly. He also wanted to promote plays that told the story of Scotland, present his ancestors in a positive way, show the relationship between Scotland and England, portray the king's beliefs (especially those related to witchcraft) and emphasize his royalty .

Macbeth was one of the plays that were strongly inspired by the wishes of King James, who sponsored more than 20 plays per year.

Identify the sentences with correct verb tense usage. Check all that apply.
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

(C) The HR department has known about the insurance premium increase for six weeks.

(D) She gave me the Lincoln Laser billing records before she left on vacation.

Explanation:

The subject verb agreement in options C and D are correct.

Option C: The use of 'has known' is in the past form, thus the sentence is correct.

Option D: 'gave' is also a past tense, which agrees with the sentence as she had left for the holiday.

Whereas, Options A and B are wrong.

Option A: the board has chosen, meaning 'past tense' thus the use of 'accepts' which is a present tense is wrong.

Option B: the new policy had been started since yesterday, so the verb 'begun' which is the "third form of the verb' is wrong and should be used alongside a helping verb thus making it 'had begun'.
