Money is something we all take for granted in our lives. Some of us may wish we had more of it but we all recognize it when we s

ee it, whether in the form of coins, notes or cheques. It is difficult to imagine how people managed without money. In the earliest periods of human history, people used to exchange goods directly. They would exchange things they had plenty of for things that they were in need of. For example, they might offer food for tools. This method of exchange, which is known as “barter”, has many disadvantages. Certain goods may be difficult to carry, they may not last long, or may be impossible to divide into smaller units. It can also be difficult to know the worth of something compared with other goods.
According to historians, the first money, in the sense we understand it today, consisted of gold coins produced about 2,500 years ago. Gold, being a very precious metal, was a suitable material. The introduction of gold coins was acceptable to everyone and they were still being used at the beginning of this century, although they have now been replaced by paper money and coins made of ordinary metals.

From Patrick Henry’s speech to the Virginia Convention
garik1379 [7]

Answer: A.  “I ask gentlemen, sir, what means this martial array . . . ?” (paragraph 2)

Explanation:

Patrick Henry gave a powerful speech to the Virginia Convention in March 1775 as they debated on whether to go to war with their British rulers. Patrick argued that it was better to either live in freedom and liberty or to die trying than to live and be shackled.

The opposition to his line of thinking wanted peace for various reasons and he acknowledges these in all the options except option A. In option A he was simply stating that the only purpose the British could have for the massive army they were assembling was to subjugate the Americas.

Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to lea
o-na [289]

Answer:

In simple words, Season's "first green" flowers are connected to golden, earth's most valuable metal, instantly cementing gold as a metaphor of anything that is new, young, and lovely.

The following line, "Her hardest hue to hold," indicates that maintaining the innocent of the initial greens is the most difficult things to accomplish and he adds, "Her first leaf's a blossom / only so an evening." This is the third time he uses an analogy, suggesting that a blade is a bloom (and green is gold).

Help! I have to hightlight the theme, sensory details, and personal reflection for the story "i am malala". I couldnt put it her
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The theme of Malala is an icon, renowned for her support for education and women’s rights. As a result, one of the most prominent themes in I am Malala is the theme of fame itself: how heroes and role models, known by millions of people they’ve never met, can contribute to change or distract from it. Sensory details are anything that helps you describe it through the five senses, which are sight, touch, hearing, taste, and smell. Malala fights as well, but instead, she uses words as her weapon. Malala's words, whether written like the diary of Gul Makai or spoken in her speeches and television interviews, powerfully rally people against the Taliban and in favor of the cause she most supports: girls' education. She shows that words can be far more powerful than guns or bombs.
