How does the section entitled "A Thriving Trade
Center" (Paragraphs 5-9) contribute to the author's
depiction of Pompeii?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It helps you better understand what the city of Pompeii was like before the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius.

Explanation:

According to a different source, this question refers to the text "Pompeii" by Mark Cartwright.

In this passage, the author describes the role of Pompeii in the Roman Empire. He tells us that Pompeii was a thriving trade center, and one of the most important ports on the Bay of Naples. He also tells us that a great variety of goods and foods were exchanged in this region. We learn about the different areas of the city, and the architecture that existed in the place. Finally, we are told of how different types of people interacted in this place. All these details contribute to creating a vivid image in the mind of the reader. In turn, this helps the reader better understand what the city of Pompeii was like before the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius.

In the passage below Nick meets tom mistress in one paragraph (4 to 5 sentences) explain the connection between the description of the place this happens in relation to the person Nick meets how to these two things fit ? think about the morality of what Tom is doing, is he being good or bad ? how does that relate to the description of the valley of ashes?

Answers

Answer:

A description of the valley of ashes, a desolate and forsaken expanse of formerly developed land that marks the intersection of the city with the suburbs. In addition to its desolate feel and uniform grayness, this forlorn area is home to a decaying billboard that calls attention to itself. Depicted on the advertisement are the Eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg, which are described as "blue and gigantic their retinas are one yard high." It was in the valley of ashes that Nick first meets Tom's mistress, Myrtle Wilson. The two men are headed to New York when Tom insists they get off the train in order for Nick to "meet [his] girl."  The two men proceed to a car repair garage owned by George Wilson, a "spiritless man" who is also Myrtle's husband. Tom chats briefly with Wilson about business matters. Myrtle, a sensuous, fleshy woman in her middle thirties, joins the men. Tom quietly informs her he wishes to see her and so she arranges to meet them shortly, leaving her husband under the pretense of visiting her sister in New York. While on their way to Tom and Myrtle's apartment, Myrtle spies a man selling dogs and insists on having one. Once at the apartment, Myrtle phones her sister, Catherine, and her friends, the Mc Kees, to join the party. The six people spend the afternoon in a haze of drunkenness. As the afternoon wears on and she becomes increasingly intoxicated, Myrtle becomes more and more outspoken about her situation in life, her marriage, her impassioned first meeting with Tom, and finally, Tom's marriage. Upon mentioning Daisy's name, Myrtle becomes enraged, shouting "Daisy" at the top of her lungs. Tom, incensed by this outburst, lashes out with his open hand and breaks Myrtle's nose in one "short deft movement." The party enters into a downward spiral and the guests take their departure. The chapter ends with Nick seeing Mr. McKee home and then heading home himself.

Which is the best revision of the underlined portion of the sentence?

Answers

Answer:

A). Such as teaching students to solve problems creatively.

Explanation:

As per the question, the first option most appropriately revises the italicized part of the sentence by replacing the phrase 'think better' with 'to solve problems creatively.' The given effect('helping students to think better') of musical training is contextually incorrect as music improves the creative skills of the students. As per the context of the sentence, the change of diction from not only helps in clarifying the idea to the legislature but also in persuading them conveniently.

One of the most interesting wonders in the world is a circle of stones known as
Stonehenge. Stonehenge was built more than three thousand years ago by natives in

moved. This may have helped ancient people follow the seasons. This in turn would
help people predict seasons.

C. Some scientists think that Stonehenge was used like a calendar.
