Which line from Act II of The Importance of Being Earnest is a paradox?

Answers

Answer:

From Act II of The Importance of Being Earnest, the line which is a paradox is "Well, one must be serious about something, if one wants to have any amusement in life."

Explanation:

A paradox is defined as a statement that contradicts itself. This statement performs it since at the beginning it seems to talk about something "serious" and how this can lead to "amusement in life." The adjective "serious" means not cheerful, while the noun 'amusement' refers to something enjoyable. So, if the first one is necessary to reach the second one, the statement contradicts itself, turning into a paradox.

Answer:

“Well, one must be serious about something, if one wants to have any amusement in life.”

Read this excerpt from the persuasive essay "Pets in School: A Supportive Friend for Every Child." Which sentence provides evidence that supports the writer’s claim?
Studies have also shown that interacting with animals can help ease children’s anxiety. This improves their health in the long term. Children who are less anxious learn better and more easily. In a study conducted by University of California, third graders were asked to read to a dog for 10 to 15 minutes once a week for 10 weeks. Even with this limited amount of animal contact, the third graders’ reading fluency improved by 12 percent. What’s more, other studies have found that interacting with a pet can instill a sense of responsibility in children.

Answers

Answer:

2 What do you think of the idea of 'retail therapy'?
Does it work?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

I believe that retail therapy is not effective in treating real psychological problems such as depression, anxiety, among others. However, I believe that the use of this type of "therapy" can be promising to change the feelings and states of mind of a person who is not necessarily having a mental problem, but is just sad or discouraged about something. However, it is important not to make an addiction of this, but to use retail therapy sporadically, just so that an individual can please himself or herself.

It is important to remember that retail therapy is a person's attitude to shopping to improve his or her mood.

You, not I deserve this honor.
You not I, deserve this honor.
You, not I, deserve this honor.
You not I deserve, this honor.
Which option is correct?

Answers

Answer:

C. You, not I, deserve this honor.

Explanation:

In the given options, the main point of the sentence seems to be "you deserve this honor." The inclusion of the non-restrictive clause "not I", also requires the use of a comma in between the sentence. This means that the non-restrictive clause is a piece of information not necessarily essential to the main clause "You".

Therefore, the correct way to write the sentence will be option C.

You, not I, deserve this honor.

What is your opinion about copying a report from the internet? Do you think that it's wrong?

Answers

What is your opinion about copying a report from the internet?

Copying a report from the internet in many parts of the country is considered plagerism. However, is it really wrong? In my personal opinion it isn‘t wrong to copy a report from the internet as long as you obtain the permission from the person who wrote it. For example: In Brainly you can either ask for help or people can do the work for you. It’s up to you to decide what you want to do. Also, people are sometimes busy and don’t have enough time to write their own essays so having someone else make their essays is less time consuming and efficient. According to Inside Higher ED, it states: “When a person borrows an idea, no harm is done to the party from whom it was taken.”  The Harbus states that plagerism is discriminatory stating: “If you believe that plagiarism is “unethical,” you are basically endorsing discrimination against people who lack original ideas. Is that the kind of society we want? Is this the message we want to send?” Also, “Artists, musicians and writers etc have always copied each other.“ as stated by Jim Hamlyn.

Do you think that it's wrong?

No, I personally don’t think it’s wrong because many people don‘t have the time to write an essay or report. Also, as long as the person who you are taking the ideas from are ok with the idea of you taking their work then you have no problem in adding their voice, ideas and opinions into your own work.
