Both Emerson and Thoreau ideas and essays were empirical.  

Explanation:

Termed as transcendentalist, both Emerson and Thoreau, emphasized on rationality, reason, and intellectualism.  The performed strategic studies and performed social experiments/testing to back up their beliefs.

They believed that spirituality goes beyond the material world.  They both emphasized on being self-reliant, as they thought that humans have the tendency to the tarnished by the society’s thoughts and beliefs.

Answer:

"Provisional drivers could each save up to £500 on their car insurance by undertaking advanced driving lessons," the government has confirmed.

"We want people to go on improving their driving skills throughout their driving careers," said David Ashworth, a junior minister at the Department for Transport. "This is about creating the right sort of education and incentivising people to do it."

Explanation:

You haven't provided the complete question, but I found a similar one online. I assume that your task is to correct punctuation, especially quotation marks.

Quotation marks are used in direct speech - when you want to relay someone's words in the exact way they were spoken. Quoted words will be framed by quotation marks. In this case, the reporting clause (the part that doesn't contain quoted words) will be separated from quoted words by a comma. Commas and periods are always included inside the quotation marks, as you can see in the Answer section.

what is ironic about the lion & the tiger’s adventure? Or, what makes the end of the Lion & Tiger’s adventure so funny?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: The Lion and the Tiger's words differ from their actions - instead of killing people as they planned, they help them.

Explanation:

<em>Irony</em> is a literary device in which a situation results in a completely different outcome than expected. In<em> "The Cowardly Lion and Hungry Tiger"</em>, L. Frank Baum's story, the Lion and the Tiger only appear to be brave - the Lion describes he will tear a person to pieces, while the Tiger plans to eat a fat baby. However, when they encounter a baby and a person, they help them instead of eating them. The Lion helps a person that falls down, while the Tiger finds a lost baby and brings it to its mother.

One interpretation of the story “The Lightning-Rod Man” is that Melville is criticizing certain Christian missionaries of the ti
Dimas [21]
<span>Melville’s story is an allegory that conveys his criticism of Christian missionaries. Melville uses several biblical, scientific, mythological, and historical allusions to build his allegory. The lightning-rod man represents Christian missionaries, while the narrator represents Melville’s beliefs. According to him, missionaries are displacing and destroying the cultures they are attempting to convert rather than bringing them true spirituality. Although the narrator isn’t influenced by the lightning-rod man, he is saddened and worried to see his neighbors fall prey to the missionaries' trap. The narrator tries to dissuade his neighbors from believing in the lightning-rod man, who continues to thrive as he “trades with the fears of men.” Unlike many others of the time period, Melville believes in being God-loving, not God-fearing. :) Hope this helped. </span>
