English

Answer:

1) During the winter, people spend more time indoors with the windows sealed, so they are more likely to breathe the same air as someone who has the flu and thus contract the virus (3).

2) Days are shorter during the winter, and lack of sunlight leads to low levels of vitamin D and melatonin, both of which require sunlight for their generation. This compromises our immune systems, which in turn decreases ability to fight the virus

3) The influenza virus may survive better in colder, drier climates, and therefore be able to infect more people

very Latin verb and noun has multiple principal parts. Which principal part gives you... a) ... the present stem of the verb?

lara [203]

Answer:

In order to answer this question, we need to understand 2 things: which are the principal parts of a verb, and what is the stem of a verb.

Explanation:

Firstly, there are 4 principal parts in latin verbs:

1. the present, active, first person, singular (Example: amo – love)

2. the present active infinitive (Example: amare – to love)

3. the perfect, active, first person, singular (Example: amavi – have loved)

4. the past participle, singular (Example: amatus - loved)

Secondly, the stem of a verb is the one left once you take away the “–ar”, “-er”, or “–ir” ending.

Now, we can conclude that the first principal part gives you the present stem of the verb.

2. How important is context here? How can we, as 21st century readers, begin to understand the true intent of Swift's piece?

avanturin [10]

The context refers to the irresponsibility of the noble class and the church towards the poor people of Ireland. As 21st-century readers, we can understand that Swift was making a social critique of the exploitation and abandonment of the lower social classes.

<h3>How does Swift establish his criticism?</h3>

He writes a text showing how the noble class and the church are hypocrites.
They show how these classes see the poor with a problem but are not willing to solve the problem.
It shows how irresponsible people are to those most in need.

For Swift, poverty was created by the bad division of income and possessions in Ireland. This is because the upper social classes and the clergy owned all the wealth of the country and did not share it with society. This pettiness promoted the lower classes who did not have the resources to change their situation but were seen as a problem for those who could change it.

This question is incomplete. The full question is "How important is the context here? How can we, as 21st-century readers, begin to understand the true intent of Swift's piece “A Modest Proposal"?
