Explanation:
Before clocks were made, people kept track of time by other means. In
ancient Egypt, people used a water clock. Water dripped slowly from one
clay pot into another. People measured time according to how long it
took one pot to empty and the other one to fill. Candle clocks were
common during the Middle Ages. As such, when a candle burned, marks
on its side showed about how much time had passed. A final ancient way
to measure time was the sundial, which used the movement of the sun
across the sky. The shadows moving across the face of the sundial
showed the current time. What is the main idea? *

Read this excerpt from Paragraph two of Poe's "The Black Cat" and answer the question.
There is something in the unselfish and self-sacrificing love of a brute, which goes directly to the heart of him who has had frequent occasion to test the paltry friendship and gossamer fidelity of mere Man.
Which phrases from this excerpt support the narrator's distrust of human beings? Select all that apply.
A "unselfish and self-sacrificing"
B "love of a brute"
C "directly to the heart"
D "frequent occasion"
E "paltry friendship"
F "gossamer fidelity"
Answer:
(B,E,F)
Explanation:
As we can see the question is basically asking for evidence that supports why the author has a distrust of human beings (Basically saying that the author cant trust humans, and can't rely on them for almost anything.)
So with that being said, we need to find text evidence that shows a negative perspective coming from the author. So we can go and cross off answer options (A: "unselfish and self-sacrificing") (D: "frequent occasion") and (C: "directly to the heart") bc two of those are positive opinions on humans, and one isn't close to being negative nor positive opinions towards humans.
Now let's take a look at "B"
"Love of a Brute"
Basically saying that somebody is showing love-(affection, caring for) a wild animal-(a violent human).
We can use context clues to find out if this is negative or positive
Before "Love of a Brute," it says "There is something in the unselfish and self-sacrificing" using this we can see that it means "For a person to love a wild animal type of person-( a violent human) is unselfish on their part, because of how abysmal-(horrible) that brute-(violent human) is.
Now let's look at E: "paltry friendship"
This is basically saying that a human shows inconsequential-(Little importance towards something) feelings towards friendship with someone else.
Lastly, we can look at F: "gossamer fidelity"
This means like a thin-(In this sentence it would mean "having little") loyalty-(being trust worthy, and faithful) towards someone.
With all this being said all answers that would apply to answering the
question would be "B "love of a brute", E "paltry friendship", and F "gossamer fidelity".

Dear Friend,
My parents had to unexpectedly delay my younger brothers birthday party so they went to me for help. It was very sudden and i had to think fast on what to do at the party, so after a few minutes of thinking i decided to have my little brother and his friends play games while i was thinking of what else to do.
I had them play musical chairs, tag, hide and seek, and play on my brothers bouncy house that we got a year ago for my birthday party. Eventually, I cut the cake for my little brother and his friends. It was themed as his favorite superhero, Spider-Man! After, they continued playing and having fun until it was time to go.
I think the party was a big success because the kids really seemed to enjoy it, and my little brother LOVED it.

They then carried on playing and enjoying themselves until it was time to leave.

Which line(s) from Auden's poem capture(s) the indifference in Brueghel's poem?
a) About suffering they were never wrong, / The Old Masters:
b) there always must be / Children who did not specially want it to happen, skating / On a pond at the edge of the wood
c) the expensive delicate ship that must have seen / Something amazing, a boy falling out of the sky, / Had somewhere to get to and sailed calmly on.
d) the ploughman may / Have heard the splash, the forsaken cry
Answer:
A. about suffering they were never wrong the old masters
Explanation:
The line from Auden's poem that captures the indifference in Brueghel's poem is:
c) "the expensive delicate ship that must have seen / Something amazing, a boy falling out of the sky, / Had somewhere to get to and sailed calmly on."
What does this line refer to ?This line from Auden's poem refers to the ship in Brueghel's painting that continues to sail calmly on, even though it must have witnessed the boy falling out of the sky. This suggests a sense of indifference to the tragedy that has occurred, as the ship continues on its journey without stopping to help or acknowledge the boy's fall.
The other lines listed in the answer choices do not capture the same sense of indifference as this line. Option a) acknowledges the Old Masters' understanding of suffering, while option b) describes children who are not aware of the suffering happening around them.
Option d) describes a ploughman who may have heard the cry but does not indicate any sense of indifference.
Auden's poem captures this sense of indifference and detachment from suffering that is present in Brueghel's painting. The speaker notes that "the Old Masters" were never wrong about the nature of suffering, and yet they were also able to see beyond it to the "human position" of those who suffer.
The poem also explores the idea that suffering is an individual experience, and that even when others witness it, they may not truly understand or care.

Screenwriters, and television writers may choose to unfold the development of their characters in different ways. In some instances, a writer can take an entire film or television season to reveal the inner workings of their characters. In other instances, they may reveal the character's nature very early. Think about a movie OR a television show that you have enjoyed. Discuss one character that stood out to you in the work and be sure to include the following information:
What does the character's appearance tell us about their personality? Consider their age, look, costuming, etc.
What does the character's behavior around other characters tell us about their personality?
What does the character want and how does that influence their actions?
Be sure to provide specific evidence from the television show or movie that you are discussing to support your claims.
