Answer:
Stevenson is saying that when we take a bird’s-eye view, we see everything in a grand perspective. From there, much of what we humans do seems trivial or unimportant. We feel aloof from the rest of humanity, much as Apollo felt when he looked down on humans from atop Mount Olympus. Stevenson likens the man’s Apollo-like view to the pleasure he found in the northern Scottish landscape.
Stevenson used the allusion to Apollo to say that when we look at our experiences from a new perspective, we find unexpected pleasure and experience personal growth. He assumes his readers will be familiar with Apollo and the allusion to him will help them understand his new view of this landscape.

Technology is one thing but the internet is another. TECHNOLOGY, thats one of man's greatest inventions so far. It's really not costing humans anything. Other than... Eyesight? I guess? Every time second after second I guess were losing a bit. Just a tiny bit of our eyesight. Although i'm pretty sure that was not your question. Well, I honestly do not really know.
Answer:
20 km/hr
Explanation:
time taken by the boat going upstream = 11 hours
time taken for downstream movement = 9 hours
speed of the current = 2 km/h
distance traveled by the boat = d
Assume the speed of boat be x
we know,
distance = speed × time
moving upstream
distance = speed × time
d = (x -2) × 11
downstream
d = (x+2) × 9
now
(x+2) × 9 = (x -2) × 11
2 x = 40
x = 20 km/hr
hence, the speed of the boat will be 20 km/hr
