Explanation:

Throughout his life, Thoreau emphasized the importance of individuality and self-reliance. He practiced civil disobedience in his own life and spent a night in jail for his refusal to pay taxes in protest of the Mexican War. ... It is thought that this night in jail prompted Thoreau to write Civil Disobedience.

Thoreau begins Civil Disobedience by saying that he agrees with the motto, "That government is best which governs least." Indeed, he says, men will someday be able to have a government that does not govern at all. As it is, government rarely proves useful or efficient.

Reread lines 94-122. Describe the relationship between Gilbert and his father. (Is the relationship strong, complicated, etc?) S
Fittoniya [83]

Gilbert's relation with his father is strong, though it may be presented as complicated, as his father used to stay away at the sea for the majority of the time.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the story, "Another Place, Another Time", Gilbert is presented as a young boy, who despises time, as it is time which comes in the way of his father and him. His father stays away at the sea for long and Gilbert has to spend that time just waiting.

When his father dies, he again blames time as he wants all the time back which he spent with his father.

Hence, it is these incidents that represent that he has a strong bond with his father.

Read the excerpt from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë.
VikaD [51]

The juxtaposition of Jane’s and Mrs. Fairfax’s attitudes toward the dining room shows this about Mrs. Fairfax:

  • She sees the rooms in a practical way.

<h3>What was Mrs. Fairfax's disposition?</h3>

The disposition of Mrs.Fairfax in the text is that of a person who is not moved by the magnificence of the rooms. She rather sees them for what they are.

More so, since there were no humans to inhabit the rooms, there was not so much to brag about.
