Answer:

The primary message of Ray Bradbury's short story "The Veldt " concerns the dangers of overreliance on technology. Bradbury presents a cautionary tale of how technology can completely consume a household and drive a significant wedge between parents and children. In this short story, the author is trying to warn us of future dangers of technological innovation by creating an image of a family living in an automated house in the futuristic world. In this story, Ray Bradbury is trying to say that, in the future, technology might take over humanity if nothing is done about it now.

Explanation:

The story talks about this very often if you really read it.

Answer:

  1. Psyche must separate a quantity of cereals and group them by species.
  2. Psyche should look for sheep wool flakes for Venus.
  3. Psyche should climb a very high and dangerous rock, face the dragons and fill a jar with the dark water that fed two hellish rivers Cocyte and Styx.
  4. Psyche should go down to the bottom of Hades and ask Persephone for some immortal beauty.

Explanation:

Cupid was a lover of Venus, who was a very vain goddess and adored for her beauty. However, Psyche was such a beautiful motal that men were going from worshiping Venus to worshiping Psyche, which made the goddess very angry and jealous.

Because of this, Venus, sends Cupid with the mission of making Psyche fall in love with the most horrible creature that was on the face of the earth. However, Cupid ends up hitting himself with the arrow and falls in love with Psyche.

He takes psyche to his palace and makes her his wife, but he says she should never look at him. One day, driven by her sisters, Psyche looks at Cupid and falls in love with her beauty. However, disobedience causes cupid to abandon her and makes her, from now on, looking for the love she lost.

Psyche begs the goddess Venus to bring her lover back, as a condition for making this request, the goddess proposes that the psyche perform the following tasks:

  1. Psyche must separate a quantity of cereals and group them by species.
  2. Psyche should look for sheep wool flakes for Venus.
  3. Psyche should climb a very high and dangerous rock, face the dragons and fill a jar with the dark water that fed two hellish rivers Cocyte and Styx.
  4. Psyche should go down to the bottom of Hades and ask Persephone for some immortal beauty.

In the first task, Psyche had help from the ants to perform them. In the second task, a reed that sprouted from the river taught her to harvest the wool that the sheep left on the branches. In the third task, Zeus' eagle spilled the pitcher with the requested water. And in the last task, he received advice from a tower on how to succeed on his journey and complete the mission.

Which of these inferences is best supported by the stanza below (lines 1-14)?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

I do not see any answer choices, so I hope this helps.

Explanation:

This poem is about a crisis of faith.  Science is taking over and therefore, it seems to be replacing "faith".  The belief in the world of faith and religion is slipping away and it is going out like the tide does in the ocean/sea.  I read up on this some more and found it interesting that Matthew Arnold literally was able to stand and look at the straits of Dover on the English Channel.  

Cool beans.
