Read this passage from Alan Weisman's "The City Without Us":

English

Setler [38]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Working against the natural tendencies of the environment leads to long-term consequences.

Explanation:

In the first paragraph, the theme of green literature is evidenced when the writer references the damage to New York City's topography due to the need to build deep underground subways that double as bomb shelters.

In the second passage, the imagery used by the writer gives a clearer picture of the damage that was done to the environment.

In the first passage, the potential hazard arises because sewer lines have to be pumped uphill with subways below them.

If there is an earthquake, for instance, the entire structure comes crashing down.

In the second passage, the damage was already done, leaving Norwegians with the problem of how to create soils upon which plant fauna could thrive. Had they, managed the tree population by planting more than they were cutting, they probably would have avoided the "<em>green problem".</em>

Cheers

I need help! Will Gogol ever accept his name? (The Namesake) and Why?
notsponge [240]
Alright so I never actually read the book so please take this with a grain of salt. From what I have just read it seems that Gogol comes to accept his non-American side and appreciate his Indian-American identity. I'm not sure why he comes to terms with it, but apparently he does. In the ending he sits down and reads the book his dad gives him by Nikolai Gogol. So yes, I think he does accept his name. However I strongly encourage you to verify that if you have the book. I hope this helped :)

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Frankenstein's goal after he became a student at the university is that he wants to create a new species of man

Explanation:

The events that led him to become a medical student gave him the idea of making a discovery, this was how to create life, and show that science could create a new kind of man, superior to the other men since it has come back to life, and this will explain the origins of life and will give the man the tools to cheat it.
