Answer: 1) What Goldsmith means, is that Death, is something all humans experience. Our mortality makes death inevitable and inescapable. Making it a somewhat, permanent condition.

2) "Like sex. death both fascinates youth and makes their elders reticent" I agree with this statement.  Youth, are driven by emotions and feeling, making them more fascinated and intrigued by intercourse. They are knew to this aspect of love and life. Elders, may become less amused, and more silent about the topic. Having known it's personal and not something to be shared openly. They keep it to themselves.

Hope this helps (^_^)

"...that Library where every book shall lie open to one another..."
musickatia [10]

The answer for the first question is “D: It is a description of Heaven”. This part Meditation 17 tells about how man reaches his ultimate end – death. After death, a man’s journey is not ended. Instead, he starts a new and better life in the spiritual world, which is heaven. The “Library” represents heaven where every person or “page” becomes more open to one another under God’s guidance.

For the second question, the answer is “B: Farewell Ben”. Ben Jonson wrote “On My First Son” for his eldest son named Benjamin.

“C: He and his wife are so in love that it does not matter whether they are together.” is the answer for the last question. It doesn’t matter whether they are together or not because they know that they love each other very deeply.

20 concepts of journalism
Naddik [55]
1. Always deliver what you promise. 2. Each pronoun should agree with their antecedent. 3. Between you and I, case is important. 4. Verbs have to agree with their subjects. 5. Don't be a person whom people realize confuses "who" and "whom." 6. Never use no double negatives. 7. A writer should not shift their point of view. 8. When writing, participle must not be dangled. Don't do it even if it's hard not to. 9. Join clauses good, like a conjunction should. 10. Don't write run-on sentences, you need to punctuate them properly. 11. About sentence fragments. Don't. Unless it's for effect. 12. In letter themes and reports use commas to separate items in a series as well as phrases and clauses when required. 13. Don't, use commas, that aren't necessary. 14. Its important to use apostriphe's in the right place's. 15. Don't abbrev. unless approved by the Associated Press Stylebook. 16. Check to see you any words out. 17. Try to never split infinitives. 18. Avoid using a preposition to end a sentence with. That's a practice up with which some readers will not put. 19. Parallel structure will help you in writing more effective sentences to express yourself more gracefully and its pleasing to your editor. 20. In my own personal opinion I think that an author when he is writing should not get into the habit of making use of too many unnecessary words that he does not really need to use. 21. Last but not least, lay off the cliches and mixed metaphors. They might kindle a flood if anger in your editor. Yes, that's twenty one, but they all needed to be listed to properly answer this question. The errors in the sentences are all purposeful and intended. I do hope this helped you. :)
