"During the shop’s peak hours – from eight in the evening till around midnight – one could hardly hear oneself talk because of the boisterous chatters that went on."
<h2>
Answer: D (or A, but I believe it's D)</h2>
Explanations
"A. A falling apple inspired Newton to think about gravity." Yes this is true, but instead of only thinking about it, he expressed his law of universal gravitation, etc. I understand how this could be the answer though. :>
"B. Gravity is when objects are pulled to the Earth." This is true aswell, but the text gives off more information than just what Gravity is. Newton is a big part of the text. Mostly the main character but narrating in third person.
"C. Newton wrote a series of books called Principia." Newton did this, but this isn't the main idea. If it was, the text would've explained more about it. This is more of a detail or maybe key detail.
"D. Newton discovers gravity.' I choose this as the correct answer because, the text talks about Newton discovering gravity, and when using the word discover in this, it's also like saying he discovered gravity from a falling apple, and contemplated about gravity.
Answer:
Greek men often consulted the help of an <u><em>oracle</em></u> when trying to understand the wishes of a god or goddess.
Explanation:
An oracle is a priest or priestess who would be the medium through which ancient Greeks communicate with their gods and goddesses. These oracles are like the priests of modern days who would act as the intermediary between men and gods.
Oracles are a huge part of Greek society and life. Kings would consult with such oracles for each and every endeavor, be it war or marriage or business plans. One such oracle was the Oracle of Delphi, of the Delphi temple.

the answer
if you can't see it the answer is
I believe that Faber's guilt stems from his cowardice. It is very easy to see that he is not brave, such as when Montag has to convince him to go to his printer friend and when he gives Montag the earpiece so that he is with him without actually being there. While he is one of the few intellectuals left in their society, I don't believe that he had much in the way of responsibility because they were fighting a losing battle. Even if he had done more, it ultimately would have done nothing because the minds of the mass would not have been swayed by one more mere voice.
Thus, his guilt stems from his inability to act, but he is being too hard on himself as there is only so much that one person can do, especially facing the odds that he did.
