Which line in this excerpt from "The Rape of the Lock" by Alexander Pope suggests that women in eighteenth-century England were
dalvyx [7]
The correct answer is:
<span>[O say what stranger cause, yet unexplor'd,
Could make a gentle Belle reject a Lord?]

The poet is wondering why a girl would ever reject a man who is hitting on her and wants to marry her. It is implied that women had no say in this - that their marriage depended solely on the man and that they couldn't choose at all. The entire poem is quite satirical and meant to mock these kinds of ideas and behaviors.

Nady [450]

Answer:

Critics say Microsoft's incredible two-decade run at the top of the computer industry has less to do with innovation than it does with bully tactics. But new research from Harvard Business School professors Marco Iansiti and Alan MacCormack suggests a different reason: the company's ability to spot technological trends and exploit key software technologies.

Perhaps no technology company outside of IBM has been able to keep on top of the industry as much as Microsoft. What's more, Bill Gates & Co. have achieved this success during times of incredible technological transformation, usually just the period when titans are vulnerable to being knocked off by disruptive technologies.

Why does Elizabeth think that "it should be her privilege to know what the black veil conceal[s]," and why does Elizabeth's "cal
Mkey [24]

Answer:

1. Elisabeth believes she has the privilege of knowing what the black veil eschews because she was engaged to the minister and was going to marry him soon. She believes that there should be no secrets between them, since they will be married forever.

2. Her calm turns to terror because while she insists that he reveal what the veil hides and remove the veil, she feels guilty for not trusting him, as well as being afraid that he is hiding something serious it's terrible.

3. Hooper refuses to remove the veil because he believes that Elisabeth must show confidence and loyalty to the man he will marry, in any circumstance.

Explanation:

This question is about "The Minister's Black Veil" written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, where we are introduced to Minister Hooper, who decides to use a black veil that covers his entire face. The minister never removes the veil and the population begins to be afraid of this attitude. Although the minister was an honorable and God-fearing man, the veil makes people see him as sinful, somber and to be avoided. This shows how religious society is judgmental and often hypocritical, even within their religions.
