Read the excerpt from "The Railroad Earth. " And the Bible on my desk next to the peanut butter, the lettuce, the raisin bread,

the crack in the plaster, the stiff-with-old dust lace drape now no longer laceable. . . . My little room at 6 in the comfy dawn (at 4:30) and before me all that time, that fresh-eyed time for a little coffee to boil water on my hot plate, throw some coffee in, stir it, French style, slowly carefully pour it in my white tin cup, throw sugar in. . . . What does this excerpt suggest about the narrator? He lives in miserable conditions and greatly suffers. He spends too much money on food and coffee. He is content even though he lives in a run-down building. He has overslept and as a result will be late for work.

This excerpt suggests this about the narrator: He is content even though he lives in a run-down building.

<h3>What is contentment?</h3>
  • Contentment is the act of being satisfied with the little one has. The excerpt described a character who is content with his life even though he lives in a deplorable house.

What is the setting of the short story "Harrison Bergeron"?
ivolga24 [154]

     

      "Harrison Bergeron" takes place in 2081, in the United States, and it's main point is the society depicted, that restrained critical thinking and creativity, as well as competition; in a distorted application of methods to achieve equality. They used devices to avoid clear thinking, masks to hide beauty with the purpose of placing people in the same level.

     The characters are the Bergeron family in which the son, Harrison Bergeron, was so superior that no "containment" device could avoid his skills and appearance  to show up. In a tentative of changing the world and freeing the handicapped people, and after all that being their "King", Harrison defies the system and ends up being murdered by the commander of this new world: The United States Handicapper General. As no one could remember what happened on the moment before, even Harrison's parents who were watching the scene on TV, the world continued as it were.

Write an argument on<br> Do portals exist?
Tom [10]

Answer:

To open a door you must first know what a door is. To discover a hidden door you have to know what it looks like. To create a door between dimensions you have to exist in both dimensions simultaneously and in neither simultaneously.

An interesting question that smells heavily of escapism. The idea that another dimension exists...

So let me take you on a journey between this universe and outside of it. I am going to assume that you are familiar with the Big Bang theory, but not it's flaws. The biggest trouble people have understanding the theory is that there was a beginning and then a rare few question what came before that. Some even question what is beyond the edge of the universe. To that question there is an answer and the answer may be a hint to your question's answer.

Before time existed there is, was and will be eternity. Eternity is a realm where time does not flow anywhere. In this universe, time goes forward only and everything is trapped in it's current. This universe is trapped like a bubble in eternity. It's like a hot air balloon floating nowhere for a brief period of eternity. Where the universe began, it will end and with as much consequence. Eternity is a place of immense power, light and purity and this is where creation itself occurs. See that's a present continuous statement. To create a portal between this universe and Eternity would require a knowledge of Eternity’s pico-physics and chemistry and what structure this universe is held by. The laws that govern time would have to be manipulated to extricate yourself from its constraints and yet at the same time still carry a portion of this universe through the fabric of eternity to be in another dimension. By implication you would have to create another dimension or universe by taking a portion this one with you to survive the transition.

Imagine a fish wanting to travel over the face of the earth. As soon as the laws it lives in are maintained and it creates a device to move freely out of water then it might achieve that. Imagining you are that fish... trying to get out of the water. The same applies to people wanting to travel through space. They take a bubble of their habitat to survive the return journey.

The answer to your question it would appear, is to take a bubble of this universe and its laws with you to travel into another dimension and, you would have to intimately know what that other dimension's laws were to make this one's laws operate inside it. It would also require immense energy expenditure and absolute control of every natural law to bend them to your will. How you discover the laws of another dimension without travelling there would require communication between you and another undiscovered sentient being on the other side to begin with.

The way a poem is divided is part of its
timofeeve [1]

The answer is: structure.

The division of a poem has to do with its structure. It is written in stanzas and lines. The use of rhythm, the lenght, the placement and the grouping of the lines and the stanzas are also important to divide the poem and to express the ideas the writer wants to.

50 POINTS!!! HELP. The Iliad and The Odyssey can be said to be part history, part legend, and part myth. In just a few sentences
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

read below

Explanation:

(I never read the Iliad but there's a summary of it at the beginning of most copies of the odyssey) The Iliad takes place over the course of a 10 year war between most of all of Greece, and the city of Troy. The war started because the prince of Troy married a Greek kings daughter who was already spoken for, she became known as Helen of Troy. One of the mighty Greek warriors is called Achilles, he is the protagonist. After a very long and pointless siege of the city, the Greeks destroy some of their own boats to make a large wooden horse. Some Greeks hide inside the horse, and the Trojans bring it inside the gate thinking the war is over, and it is a gift. At night the Greeks jump out and let all of the other Greeks into the city. During the intense fighting Achilles is shot in the heal and dies. The city falls and thousands die, then the Greeks leave. The Odyssey takes place over the next 10 years and follows a different king named Odysseus (or Ulysses depending on what version you read) What should've been a 6 week voyage home turned into a 10 year chaotic adventure bringing his three ships the many different islands, home to giant cyclops, evil witches, ship wrecking tides, etc. Upon Odysseus return home, he finds that his kingdom thinks he is long dead, and his wife is taking on new suitors, but is trying to hold off for as long as possible. She challenges all of the suitors to take her husbands bow and shoot an arrow through the rings of 12 axes. None of the other men were able to even string the Bow, however Odysseus did it with ease, and resumed his place on the throne.
