Read the following excerpt from A Room of one's Own by Virginia Woolf:
And here, I said, opening a book about music, we have the
very words used again in this year of grace, 1928, of
women who try to write music. 'Of Mlle. Germaine
Tailleferre one can only repeat Dr. Johnson's dictum
concerning, a woman preacher, transposed into terms of
music. "Sir, a woman's composing is like a dog's walking
on his hind legs. It is not done well, but you are surprised
to find it done at all." So accurately does history repeat
itself.
Which statement best states the idea that this excerpt helps to develop?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Women have always faced negative attitudes in jobs that were traditionally dominated by men.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

A. Women had faced negative attitudes in Shakespeare's time, but in Woolf's time, these attitudes had improved.

B. Women have always faced negative attitudes in music and painting but not in literature or acting.

C. Women have always faced negative attitudes in jobs that were traditionally dominated by men.

D. Women have faced negative attitudes in some areas, but other areas have always been open to them.

In this passage, Woolf provides several examples of women who became involved in occupations that were perceived as being only open to men. She tells us that these women often faced opposition or ridicule for their decision. They were compared to dogs, or their attempts were mocked. She also provides a contemporary example to show that this attitude continued to dominate the existence of women of her time.

C. Dear Mr. Carter;

D. I love reading all types of books; mystery, horror, suspense, and biographies.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

A is incorrect. A semicolon is used to separate two clauses that are major clauses (ie both could stand alone). A semicolon has the same meaning as "and." the words after plant make a list. The list in this case is

rootsstemleavesflowers (which should be plural).

B is correct.

C is actually a tough one. When I was taking this grammar, we were taught to use a colon if it was a business letter and a comma if it was friendly. A semicolon is not correct according to my usage.

D is the same as A. There is a list involved. You should be using a colon.

How does Jefferson support his major premise in the body of the Declaration of Independence

Answers

Answer:

Jefferson supports his major premise in the body of the Declaration of Independence by listing the abuses the colonies have suffered under British rule. The colonies suffered at the hands of King George III.  

Explanation:

The violations intentionally passed on to the colonies were aimed to establish a tyrannical government in North America. Jefferson claimed that the colonies had long been patient in accepting these violations. Through the Declaration of Independence, they reveal the violations that befall this nation.  

The Declaration of Independence of the United States of America is a statement of independence, declared at the meeting of the Second Continental Congress at Pennsylvania State House (today Independence Hall) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on July 4, 1776. In it, it was explained that the Thirteen Colonies fought against the British Empire because they regarded themselves as thirteen sovereign and independent countries.

The declaration explained that the Thirteen Colonies fought against the British Empire. The Thirteen Colonies regarded themselves as thirteen sovereign and independent countries, no longer under British rules. Through this Declaration, they took strategic steps towards forming the United States of America.

Jefferson was inspired by John Locke whose idea is very important as stated below:

- That all humans are born with “natural rights,” including the right to protect their lives, liberty, and property

- The government is a “social contract” between people and their rulers, which can be dissolved if rulers fail to promote the people’s welfare

(a) Calculate the maximu

Answers

Answer: 47.37mins

Explanation:

Given Data:

Desired parking time = 4hrs

No of people in the car = 3

Curb parking fee = $2.50/hr

Off-curb parking fee = $10/hr

Fuel cost cruising = $2.50/hr

Time value per person = $12/hr

Maximum cruising time in minutes

= t ( m-p ) / f + nv

= 4 ( 10 - 2.50 ) / 2.50 + 3* 12

= 4 ( 7.5 ) / 38.5

= 30/38

= 0.7895H

= 47.37 mins

The book "The Machine Stops" is a short story that describes people who live underground and are solely dependent on a machine to solve the physical and spiritual needs.

Vashti is one of the inhabitants along with her son Kuno. Vashti is an obedient follower of the machine and its actions and decisions but Kuno is a rebel who is not happy with the way things are run underground and is eager to leave.

Explanation:

According to what you've written in the question, there are approximately 10 errors in the passage. I was able to find nine. Notice that, in the original passage, the verbs were not agreeing with the subjects properly. In the passage I posted above, they have already been corrected.

They are as follows:

1. a desktop computer... exist --> exists (singular subject, singular verb)

2.neither increased efficiency nor improved employee morale have --> has (subjects with "neither... nor" need a singular verb)

3. tasks has --> have (plural subject, plural verb)

4. one invoice or two purchase orders was --> were (when the subject has "or", the verb agrees with the noun closest to it)

5. the process... require --> requires (singular subject, singular verb)

6. the result... are --> is (singular subject, singular verb)

7. everyone... are --> is (singular subject, singular verb)

8. our division implement --> implements (singular subject, singular verb)

9. any of us have --> has (the verb agrees with "any", not "us")

Based on the passage, what was Mora's purpose for
writing her essay?
to encourage readers to recognize and embrace
diversity
to entertain readers with stories about her
childhood
to inform readers about 'mountains on the
US/Mexico border
to persuade readers to vote for leaders who
support education and the arts

Answers

The correct answer is A. To encourage readers to recognize and embrace diversity

Explanation:

In essays and other texts, the purpose is the main reason or motivation for the author to write a text. This purpose is usually expressed through main ideas and sub-ideas during all the text.

In the case of Mora's essay the purpose is "to encourage readers to recognize and embrace diversity" this is because form the beginning Mora refers to diversity, this can be seen in "One-third of this nation now traces its heritage to regions other than Western Europe", which shows the importance of diversity. Also, this idea is supported when the author invites readers to embrace this diversity by stating "I urged... all of us to ponder the strength of the mountains around us" considering the "mountains" represent the diversity and heritage.

Mora's purpose for writing her essay is A. To encourage readers to recognize and embrace diversity.

It should be noted that in essays, the purpose is the main reason or motivation for the author to write a text. It's also known as the theme or the central idea.

The purpose is usually expressed through main ideas. In the essay, the purpose is to encourage the readers to recognize and embrace diversity.

What is Daisy telling us about Gatsby when she mentions never seeing such beautiful shirts before? (It has something to do with her husband, Tom)

Answers

Upon seeing the shirts, Daisy cries and explains, “It makes me sad because I’ve never seen such—such beautiful shirts before.”

One reason for Daisy’s reaction could be that she only cares about material goods, and so something like fine clothing can make her feel affection for Gatsby.

However, the shirts more likely symbolize how far Gatsby has risen since she last knew him, and she may feel emotional that she doesn’t have the chance to marry him now.
