English

Answer:

Brief.

Explanation:

Prolonged means longer than usual or extended. So, going based on this..

  • It can't be torn since that means something that is ripped to pieces or shreds. Something being longer than usual would have little to no (flipped) connection with that.
  • Meek means shy.. Why would something being long have an opposite meaning submissive?
  • Slack can mean many things, but for this let's just say it means that something's loose. Well, loose and long mean nothing similar, unless we're admitting that this has a lot of slack (no pun intended) and is hanging down pretty low, making it long. Unfortunately, it doesn't, so we'll have to scratch that out.
  • Now, brief is out perfect match; it means short, and what is the opposite of short? Long! So, we have our answer:

           The closest antonym for the word prolonged is brief.

Hope this helped! : D

How does Edmond's point of view in The Count of Monte Cristo and the sailor's point of view in "Sea Fever" reveal each text's th
sveta [45]

Edmond's point of view in "The Count of Monte Cristo" underscores the theme of how futile revenge is. The point of view in "Sea Fever" underscores the theme that living in nature is more pleasurable than urban living.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • In "The Count of Monte Cristo" we can see that Edmond maintains the point of view that someone who has suffered a crime must take revenge to find peace.
  • He maintains this thought throughout the narrative, but he cannot be satisfied with any result of his revenge, which reinforces the theme that revenge is something futile and meaningless.
  • “Sea Fever,” we can see that the speaker holds the view that the call of nature is something inevitable.
  • This speaker had an adventurous life when he lived amid nature, and the current life he has, in the city, is unsatisfactory because nature continues to call him.
  • This underscores the theme that living in nature is more pleasurable than urban living.

The point of view, in these cases, refers to the opinion of the characters.

Why do you think most successful revolutions are led by young people?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

I think it's because we are in a new era where we begin to fully understand the meaning of certain things that generations never really took the time out to learn about or were never given to chance to learn of at a certain age and we just try to make a difference by not letting detrimental parts of history repeat itself. That's how I see it hope it helps.
