Answer:

The machine is the place where every human being lives in an era that seems to be the future.

Explanation:

A typical day at the machine seems to be somewhat monotonous. The interactions with people are through technological devices and apparently the people here repeat their day to day.

Let's see the following lines:

<em>"She made the room dark and slept; she awoke and made the room light; she ate and  exchanged ideas with her friends, and listened to music and attended lectures; she make  the room dark and slept. Above her, beneath her, and around her, the Machine hummed  eternally; she did not notice the noise, for she had been born with it in her ears. The earth,  carrying her, hummed as it sped through silence, turning her now to the invisible sun, now  to the invisible stars. She awoke and made the room light." </em>

The only thing Vashti does is wake up, turn on the lights, interact with some of the thousands of buttons on the machine, talk virtually with friends and go back to sleep.

Here there is no direct interaction with nature or outside.

After John Brown was hung for several accusations regarding slavery abolition in 1859, there were two perspectives about him, and this represented a controversy: On one side, people were in favor and wanted him dead. On the other, people considered him a hero.

While the first claimed he was a murderer and subversive whose intentions were to bring a servile civil war down, the second saw in him an example of true patriotism, someone who sacrifices himself for the emancipation and salvation of a despised race, that is to say, his brothers.

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The answer is B. Incorreclty.

Explanation:

Unlikely cannot be possible amon the other as it is an adjective, and here we need an adverb, like the rest, so option "d" isn't possible. Ideally means perfectly or according to an ideal so this sounds rather strange according to this context. Succinctly means clearly or briefly and well, we cannot "briefly assume" we either assume or not, as a whole. And finally the divergence or in other words, difference, led the Western Historians to <u>incorrectly</u> assume something from the others.

Rudiy27

Answer: to reveal that dictators manipulate others and use deception to further their ambitions.

Explanation:

Orwell's main purpose in this passage is to reveal that dictators manipulate others and use deception to further their ambitions.

Despite the famine and the food situation, Napoleon was well aware of the bad results that might follow if the real facts of the food situation were known, and therefore he decided to make use of Mr. Whymper to spread a contrary impression. This showed that he deceived others.

Write a dialogue between two syudents who have distinct views on the qualities of captain or a leader.
leonid [27]

Student A: I believe that an authoritarian leader can be more efficient in his work and can lead the team to success faster than a non-authoritarian leader.

Student B: Why?

Student A: Because a leader who imposes himself and promotes a rigid position and without many friendships manages to impose a strong respect, making everyone talk about his activities without excuse.

Student B: I don't agree with his position. I believe that an authoritarian leader does not promote respect, but fear in his team. Fear is a bad feeling that causes the team to not do quality work, in addition, this type of leader promotes the dissolution of the team, which ends up defeating it.

Student A: What do you suggest, then?

Student B: I suggest a leader who promotes friendship and well-being, allowing a comfortable environment, where everyone can do their best without suffering pressure.

Student A: I think that delays the work.

Student B: On the contrary. This type of leader promotes effective and fluid work, which speeds up the completion of all activities.

Student A: This type of leader does not promote respect in the same way, but promotes admiration.

Student B: But admiration leads to respect and authoritarianism leads to abandonment.

Student A: I believe that you are right on some points, but I am still not convinced, we can meet tomorrow and deepen this discussion.

Student B: Sure.
