Identify the type of change illustrated.
Noble. The noun noble (from Latin nobilis, meaning well known) means aristocrat. The adjective means illustrious or morally superior.
A.amelioration
B.pejoration
C.generalization
D.specialization
Final answer:
The evolution of the word 'noble' from denoting an aristocrat to embodying qualities of moral superiority represents a linguistic change known as amelioration.
Explanation:
The type of change illustrated by the evolution of the word 'noble' is amelioration. Amelioration occurs when a word gains a more positive connotation over time. In this case, 'noble' originated from a noun referring to an aristocrat from the Latin 'nobilis', which meant well known, and has since transformed into an adjective that describes someone or something as illustrious or morally superior. This shift from a more neutral or class-specific meaning to a universally positive moral characteristic demonstrates amelioration. Nietzsche traces the concept of the 'noble' from a social and power-based characteristic to the ideal of moral superiority, highlighting this linguistic transformation.

The term "genocide" means any actions applied to the ethnic, religious or other group of people with the intention to destroy it in whole or in part.
The key factor in understanding genocide are:
a) Rhetoric used to justify mass killings. - As an example, we can Hitler`s rhetoric on the perfection of the Aryan nation, its godly origins. And, as its opposite, the Jewish nation of the low origins. They were killed only based on their appearance, beliefs, and the life style.
c) Main influences on actors.
d) Media response. Media is the best way to influence people, if the government controls media it controls its people, therefore media plays a very important role in the expansion of the genocide.
The EXEPT factor is b) Types of military equipment used. As it is not important what type of the arms are used. It can be mental methods of influencing (e.g. Nazi Germany implanting the belief of the superiority of their nations and with that brainwashing people), prisons, tortures, etc.

The Gettysburg Address
"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war.
We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.
It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."
From the Chicago Times
"Readers will not have failed to observe the exceeding bad taste which characterized the remarks of the President ... The cheek of every American must tingle with shame as he reads the silly, flat, and dish-watery utterances of the man who has to be pointed out to intelligent foreigners as the President of the United States."
Write an essay of at least two to three paragraphs analyzing this newspaper remark from the Chicago Times. Use specific quotations from the Gettysburg Address to support or refute the newspaper's claim.
It looks as though this essay should be an argumentative/persuasive essay. As such, there are two main ways to construct this. Knowing you should refute two points from the article, you could do this by either mentioning the opposing viewpoints first then your refutes (known as the block method), or you could do this point by point by stating an opposing viewpoint, then refuting it in the same paragraph (known as the point-by-point method). That said, here are two sample outlines assuming you mention two points:
OUTLINE 1 (Block Method)

-opposing viewpoint 1
-opposing viewpoint 2
Body Paragraph 2

Our assignment this week directs us to learn about chemical compounds and their properties.
Which words should be replaced with something more precise?

1. What does Kuhl mean when she says that language has a “critical period”? 2. What have researchers learned when studying the head-turn task?
3. What happens during the critical period for language development children? 4. What did the researchers learn about the importance of human interaction in learning language?
5. How could an early childhood education site use research like this to improve language development?
1. What does Kuhl mean when she says that language has a “critical period”?
The critical period Kuhl is talking about is the period in which babies try to master which sounds are used in their languages, which takes place in ages three to seven. After that age, there is a natural decline in this process.
2. What have researchers learned when studying the head-turn task?
They have learned that children are what they consider “citizens of the world”. This is because they can discriminate all the sounds of all languages, no matter the country or the language they use in the test. She believes that, adults cannot do that because we are attached to the sounds of the languages of our culture. One important question they made themselves was, “When do those citizens of the world turn into the language-bound citizens that we are?” From six to eight months old, before their first birthday.
3. What happens during the critical period for language development in children?
The children start taking statistics in the language they hear. Babies absorb the statistics and it changes their brain, it changes the babies from “citizens of the world” to culture bound listeners like we are when we are adults. We as adults are governed by the representations that all our experiences have given us during all of our live regarding language.
4. What did the researchers learn about the importance of human interaction in learning language?
That human interaction is crucial when babies are absorbing statistics because it is the social brain that takes control over this process.
5. How could an early childhood education site use research like this to improve language development?
An early education site could use research like this to identify specific problems children have to learn a second language. For example, they could advice parents whose children are in the age between six to eight months to be with them all the time as it is a crucial age in which they learn from the interaction with their parents.
Answer:
Question One
Explanation:
It is the time when a child - ranging in age from three to seven - masters the sounds used in their language. After age seven, there is a natural decline simply because of the fact that by time the age seven rolls around most children have already figured out and mastered all of the sounds that their language has to offer to them.

Whats the TONE and SYMBOLISM in Cupid and Psyche by Sally Benson? URGENT!!!
The basic symbolism of the song is that love wins and conquers all and everyone.
The song is written in the first face of the point of view. The tone is angry and sad because the speaker is ashamed of letting someone find himself between him and his love. He is angry with the man who took his love, though he does not blame the other for the fall of his love. Phyche, the main character, seeks love. She finds it but does not recognize it, which makes Cupid get upset and leaves. Phyche gets three tasks from her mother Venus, which she has to fill in to get him back. The gods help her in the task.
In addition to this, there are also symbols:
Phyche-Soul
Venus-Love
Royal Shepherd - Minerva and Juno
as well as the archetypal picture of falls, when Phyche of the princess becomes a servant because she has to perform tasks.
The tone in 'Cupid and Psyche' by Sally Benson can be described as whimsical and mystical with romantic elements, while symbolism is richly used to depict concepts like the suddenness of love (Cupid's arrow) and the journey of the soul (Psyche's trials).
To discuss the tone and symbolism in 'Cupid and Psyche' by Sally Benson, we need to carefully analyze the text and the imagery used within. The tone of a literary piece refers to the author's attitude or the atmosphere created in the writing. In this case, words like 'entranced,' 'bewitched,' or 'dreaming' suggest a tone that is whimsical and mystical, perhaps with underlying elements of romance and enchantment.
Discussing symbolism, when we see Cupid appearing in a puff of cloud with a drawn bow and arrow, this symbolizes the inevitable strike of love, which is sudden and unexpected, just like Cupid's arrow. The dense foliage represents a boundary between reality and the mythological story unfolding, symbolizing the separation between the ordinary world and the extraordinary events of the tale.
Psyche's trials and transformation symbolize the journey of the soul towards unity with love, which in this case is represented by Cupid. Each character, setting, and object within the story can be seen as symbolic, representing larger ideas of love, struggle, and the human condition.
How does figurative language contribute to the overall meaning of a piece of literature and clarify your understanding?

It requires an effort by the audience to understand some subtle nuances from the speech of the author. Figurative Language uses words that go beyond conventionally definitions and it can take the form of a metaphor or simile between others. It can provide additional information about the context, the characters of the story, their feelings, and so on.
Throughout most of the play, Hamlet is troubled by __________.
a) his own tendency to hesitate and overthink
b) the tragic suicide of Ophelia
c) the threat posed by Fortinbras and Norway
d) the death of his mother at the hands of his uncle
I relieve the the correct answer would be A. B is not logical since that comes in act 4, it’s Ophelia and his love for her that troubles him. C seems ridiculous. D should be the death of his father at the hands of his uncle, Claudius.
Throughout most of the play, Hamlet is troubled by (a) his own tendency to hesitate and overthink.
In the play Hamlet by William Shakespeare, it is Hamlet's tendency to overthink what makes him fail. Instead of killing Claudius immediately after finding out he killed his father, Hamlet hesitates about murdering his uncle. This is presented in a clear way in Act 3 Scene 3 when he is about to get revenge by murdering Claudius but he ends up overthinking if it is the right thing to do since his uncle is praying in that moment. The "To be or not to be" soliloquy also shows Hamlet's tendency to overanalyzing situations, which, at the same time, is what ends up causing his failures.

Which underlined modifier is in the comparative degree? Heaviest
Stronger
Fierce
Easily
I don't know how to underline the words so the capitalized words are supposed to be underlined
The word which can be found in a comparative degree would be stronger since it comes from the adjective strong, and it has the ending -er that corresponds to the comparatives structure. There is also the adjective heavy, but in contrast to stronger, heaviest is in the superlative form, because it has -est at the end. On the other hand, there is easily that is an adverb, so in this case, the category is completely different. Finally, regarding fierce, this is just and adjective without any modification, therefore, it is not a comparative.
