Between AD 500 and 1200, invaders from several countries conquered parts of Britain explains the reason for the modern English reflects the influence of several languages

<u>Explanation:</u>

Many foreign invaders came to Britain intending to conquer it. There were Normans (contemporary French), as well as Scandinavians, and Romans before them.

The morphological and lexical layer of English was farther expanded by the major impact of Greek and Latin thesaurus through the Renaissance and subsequently. The effect of Celtic, Scandinavian and French influence in that order is a diverse language from the continental Germanic languages that formed the basis of old English.

So today's English is a fusion of many languages - it has many Latin words (from the Romans), many french words (from the Normans), and many Germanic words (from the Scandinavians).

The correct answer should be

How does the second passage develop Kaku’s idea that humans have become active choreographers of nature?
dybincka [34]

In the Michio Kaku's book, Visions, he states that we are continuing to rush ahead. To prove that, he says “In the past decade more scientific knowledge has been created than in all of human history.” Since we are so advance, we don't need to be observers "of the dance of Nature". We have moved “from being passive observers of Nature to being active choreographers of Nature.” We are no longer discovering, now we are creating. Conserning future predictions Kaku says to listen to "those who create it".
