Answer and Explanation:

If you are having a hard time figuring out which word goes into the black, try plugging all the words in to see if it makes sense.

I didn't sleep ___ hours last night

I didn't sleep some hours last night.

- This doesn't sound right; Some can be used for plural nouns, but because of the way this sentence is structured, it can't be applied.

I didn't sleep any hours last night.

- Another way of saying any (in this case) is at all, which would mean the sentence needs to be restructured, which we can't do.

I didn't sleep no hours last night .

- This isn't correct, because it contains a double negative, which is when two negative words are used in the same clause (group of words containing a verb) to explain a single negative idea.

I didn't sleep much hours last night.

- Due to hours being a countable plural noun, we can't use much, therefore this is incorrect.

I didn't sleep many hours last night.

- This is correct! If you wanted to replace an amount of hours slept (or not slept), you can use many to show you slept for x amount of time without being specific.

Answer:

A short essay on the similarities between myths explaining the emergence and existence of human beings.

Explanation:

In this world, it is normal for human beings to wonder about the existence of human beings, and try to establish philosophies to try and construct the origin of man and development to the present modern man.

Some of the popular myths are ;

Iroquois Creation Myth

Australian Aborigine Creation Myth

African Bushmen Creation Myth

Hebrew/Christian Creation Myth

Greek Creation Myth

Creation theory

Evolution theory.

creation theory

In the creation theory, it is believed that life began above the earth and depicts an unexplained existence of a supreme being who took 7 days to create the universe and all in it through word of mouth. It also explains that human beings once lived in peace with animals above the earth and, when human beings sinned, they were ejected onto the earth, which was one of God's formations.

African bushmen creation myth

It states that there existed a supreme being by the name of Lord Kaang. He lived beneath the earth. He created a tree that spread across the entire territory and started digging a hole across that extended to what is the present earth. He then sat on the edge of the hole and, from the hole came a woman. Later all the people had come out and gathered under the tree. Previously Lord Kaang had furnished the earth and now the people and animals gathered under the tree where he instructed them not to create a fire since it would cause a great calamity. He then moved to a secret position where he could watch his creation. When the day was over they started feeling cold and lit a fire, they could not see too. Unlike the animals, they could see and had fur hence they could not feel the cold. They fled to caves. The animals started fearing human beings and could no longer live together because of a communication breakdown.

The examples above are among many more myths but show a rough idea of what has been thought over time.

Similarities between various theories.

All have a supreme human being

All show punitive measures put in place by the supreme being

All depict a human being who is very insecure and breaks the laws to meet what they thought was a necessity in their existence.

Finally, all depict an anonymous location where the supreme being conducted the first creation from.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Part A

O Passage 1 provides the distressing circumstances of Chief Joseph's submission to the US army.

Part B

"No one knows where they are" (paragraph 4)

Advantage/Disadvantage

Watching the interaction between the Chief and US army allows the viewer to fool the tension between the two parties. Advantage

Watching the video allows the viewer to disregard the historical context for which the Chief gave his speech. Disadvantage

Listening to the Chief's speech allows the viewer to feel the emotional impact of the speaker's resignation. Advantage

Explanation:

In passage 1, the distressing circumstances that prompted the Chief's resignation to the United States Army were explained. The Chief lamented that many of their leaders were now dead. The weather was not favorable for them and many of their children could not be found. These things made him surrender.

His lamentation on not knowing where his children are is an example of the distressing circumstance that he faced. A video showing the events that transpired will help the viewer to appreciate the events more and relate to them.
