Which statement most accurately describes how the author's word choice expresses his feelings on electronic media, such as telev

ision?
Together, this ensemble of electronic techniques called into being a new world — a peek-a-boo world, where now this event, that, pops into view for a moment, then vanishes again. It is a world without much coherence or sense; a world that does not ask us, indeed, does not permit us to do anything; a world that is, as the child's game of peek-a-boo, entirely self-contained. But like peek-a-boo, it is also endlessly entertaining.

-A. Calling our culture a "peek-a-boo" world suggests that the author thinks new media have made us more childlike.
-B. By comparing new media to an "ensemble," the author asserts that new media create harmony between people like never before.
-C. Postman's excitement about the changes over the past 100 years in how we consume media comes through in his word choice.
-D. The idea that peek-a-boo is "endlessly entertaining" is false; just as adults grow out of peek-a-boo, they get tired of television.

In a brief response, argue which element of a tragedy is strongest in of Romeo and Juliet. Also, argue which element is the hard
disa [49]

Answer:

The strongest element that represents the tragedy in the book is the end with the death of the two lovers

<em>"JULIET: Yea, noise? Then I'll be brief. Or happy dagger! </em>

<em>[Snatching ROMEO’s dagger] </em>

<em>This is thy sheath; </em>

<em>[Stabs herself] </em>

<em>there rust, and let me die. </em>

<em>[Falls on ROMEO’s body, and dies] "(ACT V) </em>

In a rational way, it is difficult to analyze the romantic love between the two, since it is very fleeting and idealized, how is it that they marry within a few days of meeting

<em>"JULIET: Here’s such a coil! Come, what does Romeo say? </em>

<em>NURSE: Have you got leave to go to shrift to-day? </em>

<em>JULIET: I have. </em>

<em>NURSE: Then hie you hence to Friar Laurence’s cell; </em>

<em>There stays a husband to make you a wife "(ACT II)</em>
