When Braling Two's mechanical heart beats, it makes a "tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick" sound. What other association does this sound hold for the reader? How is this an example of skillful foreshadowing by Bradbury? in marionette Inc story ​

Answers

The sound has an association with the noise of a running clock. This promotes the foreshadowing that the time for him to take Braling's place is approaching.

We can arrive at this answer because:

"Marionettes, Inc." is the short story where Braling decides to buy a robot, called Braling two, to replace him in his home and his family relationships so that he has time to pursue his personal dreams.Braling Two is a robot identical to Braling and upon taking his place, he begins to enjoy family life and to fall in love with Braling's wife.As time goes by, Braling two's presence is increasingly strengthened and he wants to assume that position forever and take Braling's place.

The heartbeat and Braling Two have the same sound as a clock running and this reinforces the idea that time is passing for Braling Two to reach its goals.

write a well worded paragraph in which you argue for or against the mandatory wearing of school uniforms. Give three reasons to support your position, and explain carefully how each reason relates to the thesis

Answers

Answer:

 Clothing as been a number one problem when it comes to the public school system. What other way to solve it then by wearing uniforms? Across the United States although 40 percent of schools use uniforms, parents never have to worry about buying new clothes for their child possibly every other day just so their child can "fit in". Secondly, when wearing regular clothing kids tend to mess with or focus on what they're wearing rather than their school work. When wearing uniforms there's nothing to worry about when it comes to fidilling with dressware, meaning that more kids can focus on actual school work rather than apparel. Therefore, school uniforms can not only increase learning but can make the school a better and safer place to learn.

Hope this helps :) I used to wear a uniform so it was easy :))

A cry went up from the pack running after him when he fell. There was tension and hysteria in that concerted cry. And other things too, but he scarcely thought about it at all. Three women fell out of the race and clutched their sides and laughed; one of them fell on the sidewalk laughing like that, her belly puffing up huge with laughter, and subsiding again, letting it go.

5 He scrambled up to his feet, their cries in his ears, spurring him on; he must run, run until he dropped, going God knows where. He scrambled to his feet, his fingers clawing the asphalt, stumbled on, sounds filling his ears... shriek of a locomotive whistle...coming up, rising to a pitch, and going away...he turned the corner into the street that was at right angles to the one he had come down from the Slaughter House gates...he was running blind before, reacting to the compulsion of his fear...but now he saw his objective and it lent his effort purpose...a long line of freight cars was coming down from the railway yard along the lines that ran across the street, going towards No. 1 Pier.

The gates were lowered across the street stopping traffic; all he had to do was to get across the lines before that string of freight cars. They would cut off his pursuit for the time it would take that long train to cross the street. Trains always slowed down going into the dockyard; sometimes stopped, straddling the street. All he had to do was to get across.

The man operating the gate yelled at him. He paid no heed. He had balanced it in his mind to a nicety, figured he'd just have time to get across. He went under the gate. Voices shouted in his ears...the scream of the locomotive whistle rising to a crescendo...he paid no heed. The train was hurtling towards him, but he had time, he could make it.

Which phrase in passage 1 tell us the most about lonnie's character how he approaches new experiences?

Answers

The phrase in passage 1 that tells us the most about Lonnie's character and how he approaches new experiences is:

A. "When Celeste had emailed to ask him to meet her train, his first instinct had been to say no." (paragraph 1)

The fact that Lonnie is hesitant about meeting Celeste at the station reveals a lot about his character. The two were friends when they were kids, but have only kept in touch via email after growing up. Now that Celeste wants to see him again, Lonnie thinks of saying no.That shows Lonnie prefers to avoid new experiences. He most likely enjoys sticking to what he already knows well, to events and people that he can predict.Since he cannot predict what will happen when he finally meets Celeste after so long, Lonnie feels reluctant.With that in mind, we choose letter A as the best option.

The answer choices for this question are the following:

A. "When Celeste had emailed to ask him to meet her train, his first instinct had been to say no." (paragraph 1)

B. "So here he was, waiting." (paragraph 1)

C. "Instead, he was waiting for someone he hadn't seen in years." (paragraph 1)

D. "Plus, all his friends had gone to this awesome film festival downtown, and he'd to skip it." (paragraph 1)

Which sentence from A History of the World in 100 Objects provides the most effective evidence to support this claim and reason?

The slit drum began its life in Central Africa, in the region where Sudan and the Congo share a frontier, and it would have been part of the court orchestra of a powerful chief.
The flanks of the drum have been carved to different thicknesses, so that a skilled drummer with a traditional drumstick can produce at least two tones and as many as four distinct pitches.
It [slave raiding and trading] was centralized by the Egyptian government in Khartoum, which by the late nineteenth century had become the greatest slave market in the world, servicing the whole of the Middle East.
It’s an interesting drum because it’s been etched with the Arabic script, because it fell into the hands of the Mahdi, and obviously Arabic is the lingua franca of Sudan and it’s the language spoken by the northern tribes.
