English
1 answer:
damaskus [11]2 years ago
5 0
Although Nick doesn't realize it yet, the valley of ashes is where Tom's mistress lives, and he is about to meet her. The valley of ashes symbolizes poverty, hopelessness, and the death of dreams. It is a poverty-stricken area where people like George Wilson work hard but never get ahead enough to pursue their dreams.

What words and phrases does Annan use to describe the horrors of the twentieth century? How does this help shape the perception
laiz [17]

Annan uses words like "deadliest," "suffering," "crimes," "violence" and "hatred." These words help the reader to see how the 20th century was uncomfortable, dangerous, and a bad time.

Although you haven't shown it, we can see from the context of your question that you are referring to Kofi Annan's speech during the Nobel Peace Prize.

In this speech, Annan states that:

  • The world and the relationship between countries and people have changed a lot over time.
  • However, not all of these changes were beneficial.
  • Although the 21st century seems safer and more stable than the 20th century, boundaries between people still exist.
  • These borders are no longer national borders and have started to be created by the social, economic, and political inequalities that surround us.
  • Although the 20th century was a bad, criminal and violent moment in the history of humanity, we cannot say that there is a union between peoples and not even between people of the same nation, right now.
  • This makes our current century still dangerous, unstable, and in need of improvement.

In short, he claims that we have evolved in technology, but our social relationships, empathy, and solidarity are still as shallow as in the 20th century.

Which citation correctly reflects MLA guidelines for a website without an author?
belka [17]

Answer:

It is written in the explanation.

Explanation:

Considering the ever-increasing amount of information found online, it has become quite common to use them as a citation source. They often may lack an author's name, but still, they require s proper citation. Some basic rules to follow are:

- first, we write the title of the work, the article or the web-page

- we follow with the title of the website (italicized)

- next is the publisher's name and the year of publication

- finally, since this is an on-line article we copy its URL

So to summarize: "Title of the article, work or web-page". Title of the website, Name of the publisher, Year, URL.

Also, using phrases such as anonymous author or unknown author instead of the author's name, in this case, should be avoided.
