Answer and Explanation:

1. In "Brave New World" the population was conditioned to act and think in the same way through the psychological alienations to which they were subjected. The idea behind this conditioning was to allow an end to individuality and to prevent people from thinking critically. Currently, we can consider that the media reinforces a conditioning similar to today's society. This is because we are conditioned to the standards that the media presents us, showing what it means to be successful, beautiful and pleasant. we are led to believe in these standards and to try to mold ourselves to them, at any cost, even if it causes harm and is against what we really believe. In "Brave New World" the character Marx is unable to submit to conditioning and is therefore excluded and seen as abnormal. In our society, people who refuse to submit to media standards are seen in the same way and feel out of place and lonely.

2. In "Brave New World" hypnopedia is used to teach individuals behavioral concepts while they are sleeping. This system allows them to listen to manipulative phrases that modify their behavior and teach them to act as desired. Currently, we can compare the "Brave New World" hypnopedia with smartphones. Despite not using smartphones while sleeping, we spent hours being subjected to the information that smartphones can provide, being possible and having access, once again, to the media standards that modify human behaviors.

"Brave New World" is a book written by Aldous Huxley and presents a futuristic society where all inequality has been eliminated, but the inhabitants are manipulated to act and think in a unique way, eliminating all individuality, rationality and autonomy.

According to benvolio who started the fight

Gre4nikov [31]

This is what Benvolio says (talking to Montague).

"Here were the servants of your adversary,
And yours, close fighting ere I did approach:
I drew to part them: in the instant came
The fiery Tybalt, with his sword prepared,
Which, as he breathed defiance to my ears,
He swung about his head and cut the winds,
Who nothing hurt withal hiss'd him in scorn:
While we were interchanging thrusts and blows,
Came more and more and fought on part and part,
Till the prince came, who parted either part".

What actually happened was that Sampson and Gregory (Capulet servants) intended to provoke some of Montague's men into a fight. With Sampson biting his thumb, a verbal argument soon escalates into a fight between the parties. Benvolio then comes along sees the fight and tries to stop it by beating down their swords, using his own to do so. Tybalt then comes along and seeing Benvolio with a drawn sword, attacks. The fight then escalates further with the general citizenry joining in.

Therefore doing a quick precis of Benvolio's words - I saw your servants and those of your adversary (Capulet) fighting. I drew my sword to try and stop them. At that very moment, Tybalt appeared and seeing my drawn sword attacked. I asked him to cease, but he defied this request and wouldn't stop, expessing scorn for Montagues. We were skirmishing, and then more and more of the general citizens joined in, escalating a small disturbance into a major melee until the prince stepped in and stopped it..

Which line most common this prediction

NARA [144]

<h3>Perhaps the most common goal in statistics is to answer the question: Is the variable X (or more likely, X 1 , ... , X p ) associated with a variable Y, and, if so, what is the relationship and can we use it to predict Y? </h3>

<h3>Nowhere is the nexus between statistics and data science stronger than in the realm of prediction—specifically the prediction of an outcome (target) variable based on the values of other “predictor” variables. Another important connection is in the area of anomaly detection, where regression diagnostics originally intended for data analysis and improving the regression model can be used to detect unusual records. The antecedents of correlation and linear regression date back over a century.</h3>

In the "I’m a Believer" scene at the end of the movie "Shrek," the three blind mice are turned into the horses in one frame, but

a contingency break; inattentional blindness

This scene is an example of a contingency break. A contingency break is when, in a piece of media (usually children movies or TV shows) a scene occurs that is immediately retconned in the next scene. A common example of this is in children's cartoons, when a character may have gotten their clothes dirty in one scene, but they are back to normal in the next with no time for them to have been cleaned. This applies to the movie Shrek, as the three blind mice are turned into horses in one frame, but are back to the status quo in the next.

Inattentional blindness is the failure to notice a fully visible, but unexpected, object/action because one's attention was on another object/action. A contingency break can be considered a "real-life" example of inattentional blindness because, if this scene occurred in real-life, you would not notice the mice turning back to normal as your attention was not focused on them.

Identify whether this sentence is written in active or passive voice. Spectators filled the stadium

Paul [167]

Answer:

Active.

Explanation:

First one must recognize the difference between active versus passive voice. Active voice is where the subject is put before the predicate, and passive is where the predicate ie put before the subject.

Example:

Sally drove her car. --> Active voice, because subject is first.

Subject predicate

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The car was driven by Sally --> Passive voice, because predicate is first.

predicate Subject

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Furthermore, you can break down the predicate into the object and action. Using the same example below...

Sally drove her car --> Active, because subject is first.

subject action object

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The car was driven by Sally--> Passive, because action and object are first.

Object action Subject

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In your example, your subject (Spectators) are first and your action and object (filled the stadium) are second. Therefore, it is active voice. (also, remember that your action and object can be combined to form the predicate.)

Hope this helps!
