When an hour passes by, the clock chimes, and everyone listens to it, aware that they have lost an hour of their life and that death is approaching.

What point does quindlen make by comparing present-day new york with philadelphia in her father's time?
taurus [48]
In "A Quilt Of A Country", Quindlen's point in comparing present-day New York with Philadelphia in her father's time is that in America, there is a clinging to the ethnicity, in background and custom, that has undermined the concept of unity. In her father's time in Philadelphia, Jewish boys would walk several blocks out of their way to avoid the Irish divide of Chester Avenue. I hope this helps.

What is the name for the process of deciding what the information in a textmeans?
Reptile [31]

Answer: C. Making inferences

Explanation:

When we receive a text, we read it, make observations and summarize it in our minds. After this we then use the information gathered to make inferences which would enable us understand the meaning of the message.

We will then be able to formulate a reply based on the inferences made about what the text could mean. This process can happen really fast and is the reason texting can happen in relatively huge volumes in a short period of time.
