Answer:
Explanation:
The saying “Ignorance is bliss” originates in Thomas Gray’s poem “Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College” (1742). The quote goes: “Where ignorance is bliss, ’tis folly to be wise.” Face it: you were better off not knowing that, weren’t you? Generally speaking, ignorance is a detestable state of mind. The more knowledge you have, the better equipped you are to deal with life. But ignorance itself doesn’t equal stupidity. For instance, I view myself as someone who is smart enough to realize his huge capacity for stupidity. I know there are massive gaps in my cultural and general knowledge. I would define my intellectual state as, at times, unaware. But who am I kidding? In some areas of life, I’m just plain ignorant, even if not by choice.

We were taught to believe that the Great Spirit sees and hears everything, and that he never forgets; that hereafter he will give every man a spirit-home according to his deserts: if he has been a good man, he will have a good home; if he has been a bad man, he will have a bad home. What central idea of the speech is illustrated by this excerpt? Man should act cautiously because the Great Spirit is not very forgiving.

What effect does the narrative's point of view have on the reader's experience of the events? The reader is shown both the views of women's suffrage supporters and of its opponents. The reader learns about the women's suffrage movement from the standpoint of someone who is close to it but has not worked in it. The reader receives a broad historical overview of the women's suffrage movement from an objective source. The reader is allowed to share directly in the feelings of a leader of the women's suffrage movement.
Answer:
The effect of the narrative's point of view on the reader's experience of the events:
The reader is allowed to share directly in the feelings of a leader of the women's suffrage movement.
Explanation:
This depends on the narrator's point of view. There are four points of view: the first person point of view (the "I” or “we" perspective), the second person point of view (the "You" perspective), the third person point of view (limited) (the "he,” “she,” “it,” or “they" perspective), and the third person point of view (omniscient). These points of view narrate to the reader the underlying message from different perspectives. A point of view is a literary device which shows the opinion of the narrator of a story and enables the reader to share in the feelings of the individuals involved in the situation.

Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.
Then I heard about a summer job through my uncle who was a dentist. He introduced me to one of his patients who had a business selling audio-visual equipment for big light and music shows. He was looking for some new, better equipment. I spent all summer when I was sixteen building high-powered light-controlled systems that synchronized many Kodak projectors at once, as many as sixty-four to 120 of them, and reduced the cumbersome machines from the size of a refrigerator to the size of a toaster. Not only was this invention used in theaters, but it was sold to the Museum of Natural History and the New York Planetarium to project views of the heavens on the ceiling. To make this new device I had bought every kind of electrical equipment I could find, and still had money left over.
Which detail shows that Kamen's light-controlled systems were very good?

Is liberty worth fighting for why or why not
Answer:
Yes it's worth fighting for
Explanation:
The defintion of liberty is "the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's way of life, behavior, or political views." The US revolves around liberty, we have the freedom to vote for who and what we want, we have the freedom to live the way we want, and so many more freedoms. If the US wasn't based on liberty I fully believe that we wouldn't be as successful as we are today. One of the reasons why many people from other countries are so infatuated with America is because we do have freedom, we aren't punished if we think or talk the wrong way.
Let's take wearing masks as an example. In my personal opinion it's not that big of a deal, however, there are people who are opposed to wearing one because they don't want to do something that they're told to do. These are one of the smaller freedoms we have, the ability to say "no I don't want to do that" which is an action that some people in other countries aren't allowed to do.
So if you ask "Is liberty worth fighting for?" Yes it is.

one conditional sentences of the prodigal son compose
I found this question online asking for 5 sentences instead of just one. That's why I wrote 5 of them.
Answer:
- If the prodigal son hadn't been so greedy, he wouldn't have asked his father for money.
- If the prodigal son hadn't been so careless, he wouldn't have spent all the money so quickly.
- If the prodigal son hadn't spent all the money, he would never have learned to value his father.
- If the prodigal son hadn't returned home, he would probably have starved to death.
- If the father hadn't taken the prodigal son back, he would have had to live in the streets.
Explanation:
A conditional sentence expresses a condition for something to happen. It may or may not express something possible. That is, conditional sentences can be used to expresses hypothetical thinking or even wishful thinking about events that cannot be changed or events that will never take place. An example of conditional sentence is: If it does not rain tomorrow, I will go to the movies with you.
Having that in mind, let's write a few conditional sentences about the prodigal son, one of the stories told by Jesus, according to the Bible:
- If the prodigal son hadn't been so greedy, he wouldn't have asked his father for the money.
- If the prodigal son hadn't been so careless, he wouldn't have spent all the money so quickly.
- If the prodigal son hadn't spent all the money, he would never have learned to value his father.
- If the prodigal son hadn't returned home, he would probably have starved to death.
- If the father hadn't taken the prodigal son back, he would have had to live in the streets.
in ecosystem ,bacteria and fungi are mainly what
Answer:
decomposers
Explanation:
An "ecosystem" consists of both the living things and non-living things co-existing together. It consists of many species with their particular functions (producers, consumers/decomposers).
The "decomposers" are responsible for decomposing or breaking down the plants and animals that have already died. They turn them into "organic materials," which are then brought back to the soil. Examples of decomposers are bacteria and fungi.

Choose one of the protagonists and explain how he advances the plot of his particular
narrative. How does the combination of his internal and external conflicts move the story
along? Who is the antagonist in the narrative?
The book is American born Chinese.
Answer:
I would say whatever challenge they have physically or mentally, or what they have to overcome during the story.
It can be internal mostly, because it is something mentally to overcome. External would be Man vs. Man, Man vs. Nature, or maybe Man vs. Society.
The conflict would be when things start to go awry or be more interesting. The sensory details could commit some more drama to the conflict depending on what the conflict is.
