What does Emerson compare society to in the excerpt from “Self-Reliance”?

Answer:

In his essay, "Self Reliance," Emerson's sole purpose is the want for people to avoid conformity. Emerson believed that in order for a man to truly be a man, he was to follow his own conscience and "do his own thing." Essentially, do what you believe is right instead of blindly following society.

Emerson's only motivation for writing "Self Reliance" was to urge readers to shun uniformity. Emerson was of the opinion that a man needed to "do his own thing" and act on his own moral convictions in order to be a true man.

The purpose for which people and other animals start, maintain, or stop an activity at a specific time is known as motivation. The usual definition of motivational states is factors occurring within the agent that produce a disposition to participate in goal-directed activity.

The word "motive," which refers to a person's needs, wishes, or inclinations, is where the word "motivation" comes from. It involves encouraging people to take action in order to accomplish a goal.

A desire for money may be one of the psychological factors driving people's actions in the context of career ambitions. In essence, follow moral convictions rather than blindly adhering to social norms.

Read this passage:
It was his own fault or, rather, his mistake. He should not
have built the fire under the spruce tree. He should have
built it in the open. But it had been easier to pull the twigs
from the brush and drop them directly on the fire. Now the
tree under which he had done this carried a weight of snow
on its boughs. No wind had blown for weeks, and each
bough was fully freighted. Each time he had pulled a twig
he had communicated a slight agitation to the tree-an
imperceptible agitation, so far as he was concerned, but an
agitation sufficient to bring about the disaster. High up in
the tree one bough capsized its load of snow. This fell on
the boughs beneath, capsizing them. This process
continued, spreading out and involving the whole trechot
grew like an avalanche, and it descended without warning
upon the man and the fire, and the fire was blotted out!
Where it had burned was a mantle of fresh and disordered
snow.

Which of the following supporting details would best support this main idea:

It’s better for the planet if people use a reusable water bottle rather than purchasing plastic bottles of water at the store.

1- Ninety-one percent of the annual 400 billion single-use plastic water bottles used around the world end up in landfills or the oceans.

2- Plastic water bottles don’t come in large enough sizes so it is difficult to consume the proper amount of water necessary each day.

3- Purchasing a reusable water bottle will save you money in the long run since most reusable water bottles can last for years.

4- Some reusable water bottles are insulated and can keep your water colder and fresher for longer periods of time.

“Why, about YOU!” Tweedledee exclaimed, clapping his hands triumphantly. “And if he left off dreaming about you, where do you suppose you'd be?”

“Where I am now, of course,” said Alice.

“Not you!” Tweedledee retorted contemptuously. “You'd be nowhere. Why, you're only a sort of thing in his dream!”

“If that there King was to wake,” added Tweedledum, “you'd go out—bang!—just like a candle!”

“I shouldn't!” Alice exclaimed indignantly. “Besides, if I'M only a sort of thing in his dream, what are YOU, I should like to know?”

Read the following excerpt from “The Gift of the Magi” and answer the question.

For there lay The Combs--the set of combs, side and back, that Della had worshipped long in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs, pure tortoise shell, with jewelled rims--just the shade to wear in the beautiful vanished hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had simply craved and yearned over them without the least hope of possession. And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have adorned the coveted adornments were gone.

But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim! And them Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, "Oh, oh!" Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit."Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it."

Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled."Della," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on."

The magi, as you know, were wise men--wonderfully wise men--who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas presents. Being wise, their gifts were no doubt wise ones, possibly bearing the privilege of exchange in case of duplication. And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. O all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi.
