Answer:

False

Explanation:

"Disguises" is a short story by Jean Kwok. Mrs. Chen - we are told right at the beginning of the story - is wearing an amulet on the night she gets lost. We are also told two things about the amulet: that it is worn for protection and it is the only part of Mrs. Chen's mother she was able to bring with her from China. Even though the narrator mentions a goddess who (the shaolin monks believe) lives in the amulet as if it were her temple, there is no mention to humans only kneeling before the gods. Thus, the affirmation in the question is false.

The correct answer is <em>false</em>. The amulet that Mrs. Chen hung on a gold chain under her blouse was for her to remember her past life in China.

Should ACT and SAT be allowed to be taken if people don't really care about their college career? write an essay please.
blondinia [14]
<span>In July 2012, a few months before he was to officially take over as president of the College Board, David Coleman invited Les Perelman, then a director of writing at M.I.T., to come meet with him in Lower Manhattan. Of the many things the College Board does — take part in research, develop education policy, create curriculums — it is perhaps most recognized as the organization that administers the SAT, and Perelman was one of the exam’s harshest and most relentless critics. Since 2005, when the College Board added an essay to the SAT (raising the total possible score from 1,600 to 2,400), Perelman had been conducting research that highlighted what he believed were the inherent absurdities in how the essay questions were formulated and scored. His earliest findings showed that length, more than any other factor, correlated with a high score on the essay. More recently, Perelman coached 16 students who were retaking the test after having received mediocre scores on the essay section. He told them that details mattered but factual accuracy didn’t. “You can tell them the War of 1812 began in 1945,” he said. He encouraged them to sprinkle in little-used but fancy words like “plethora” or “myriad” and to use two or three preselected quotes from prominent figures like Franklin Delano Roosevelt, regardless of whether they were relevant to the question asked. Fifteen of his pupils scored higher than the 90th percentile on the essay when they retook the exam, he said.</span>

When a son was born to Confucius, the king of Lu sent over a carp as present. Confucius named his son Carp.
Natalka [10]
It is ironic that Confucius's son died an early death. We can infer that the death of Confucius' son, Carp is ironic, he suffered an early death when the symbolism of the carp fish is longevity, because carps can get very old, it also represents the dragons due to big scales on the body of a carp. According to the meaning of the carp Confucius' son, Carp, should have a long live which did not happen.
