"A tiger dies and leaves a skin. A man dies and leaves a name." This ancient Chinese proverb illustrates the fundamental quality

of man that distinguishes him from the animals—the power to think and reason. He can decide what his future will hold. In the molding and shaping of his life, man exerts an influence on all whom he encounters. He has the ability to choose the type of influence he will have. A tiger, unlike a man, has no control over either his environment or his destiny. Though he is a majestic animal that prowls the jungle with pride and assurance, terrorizing both man and beast, his actions are governed only by the laws of nature. His death leaves the world unchanged; he exerts no lasting influence. When a man dies, however, he may continue to influence others through his accomplished goals and through the traits and ideas he has passed on.

Answer:

Rectangle

Explanation:

From the construction of the paragraph, the shape is likely to be a rectangle. This is because of the technique of parallelism used in the story. The following except provides an example:

"A tiger dies and leaves a skin. A man dies and leaves a name."

Both sentences describe what the two creatures leave after death.

Answer:

no

Explanation:

the capital citizens think of the tributes in the same way people think about racing horses. They are financially invested rather than emotionally. Even if they cry over a tribute, it is more about money lost and is similar to the way you would cry about a pet.

What is the theme of Against School by John Taylor Gatto
Sphinxa [80]
<span>Gatto: An aura of paranoia seems to pervade Gatto’s angry, impressioned plea for changes to America’s educational system; as part of his argument, he tries to convince us that we are pawns in a gigantic plot. Gatto identifies with the students whose lives, he believes, have been ruined by some monstrous entity-“corporate society”? ----that tries to grind children down until they become docile, robotic creatures. His presentation-particularly toward the end-is facile and ideological; it can be hard to accept his unexplained, unsupported assertions. For example, is the purpose of tracking students necessarily the elimination of the inferior ones, or can one interpret it as one way of maintaining a meritocracy? A good summary should refer to Gatto’s scattershot method of argument. One might also question the accuracy of his paraphrases. Inglis’s list of educational purposes, for example, might be presented quite differently by a more conservative commentator. It is a loaded topic.</span>
