Without the reassurance of a handwritten ink signature, there is no obvious way to verify the authorship. Alternatively, imagine

that a bank receives an e-mail from a client, which instructs that all the client's funds should be transferred to a private numbered bank account in the Cayman Islands. Once again, without a handwritten signature, how does the bank know that the e-mail is really from the client? The e-mail could have been written by a criminal attempting to divert the money to his own Cayman Islands bank account. In order to develop trust on the Internet, it is essential that there is some form of reliable digital signature. –The Code Book, Simon Singh

<span> The reason that protecting our information is important is so that people can be sure about who really sent them information. The evidence is a hypothetical situation about how a criminal could steal money by pretending to be someone else if encryption wasn't possible. The reason and evidence logically support the claim because they show one way that the Information Age would not be successful – people could easily steal money – if information is not protected. </span>

Answer:

According to what the author expresses in this excerpt, <u>in order to confirm the authorship of a document, handwritten ink signatures should be present.</u> Otherwise, there would be no reliable way of verifying the source of that document.

Explanation:

The main reason for Simon Singh to believe that is that, if we don't have a handwritten signature, we could be easily fooled by criminals who take other people's names to make us do things for their own benefit, like in the example given by the author of the bank account. I think <u>his claim is pretty accurate and that the example given by the author supports the claim in a very logical way.</u> I, in fact, agree with him in believing that handwritten signatures or any other way of pursuing reliability is worth the time and intention. Nothing is too much when trying to avoid fraud, and I also think it is a good practice to update the protection system every now and then to maintain our information private and secure.

ROMEO AND JULIET
Art [367]

Answer: For film you can say they changed the time period drastically.

Explanation:

The film romeo and juliet was filmed like as if it was based in a modern world with electronics and guns. For example, in the book Mercrutio dies of a knife wound to the lung while in the movie he dies from a gunshot. The book on the otherhand, is written in a shakespearian time where they used knives and obviously didn't have technology. But, they kept the shakespearian language in the film but cut out certain dialogue.

For questions 7–9, choose the correct sentence pattern.
notka56 [123]

1. The correct answer is S-V-N.


S refers to subject, and if you take a look at the sentence, you will see that the subject IT comes first. It is then followed by V, which stands for verb. In this sentence, the verb is IS. The verb is followed by a noun phrase HYBRID CAR, which is a predicate nominative (a noun or phrase following a linking verb). Predicate nominatives are written as N.


2. The correct answer is S-V-A.


The layout of this sentence is similar to the first sentence. First, we have the subject (S) TRADITIONAL GAS-POWERED CARS, then we have the verb (V) ARE, which is later followed by an adjective phrase HARMFUL TO THE ENVIRONMENT. This phrase is a predicate adjective (an adjective or adjectival phrase following a linking verb), which is written as A.


3. The correct answer is S-V-O.


This is the most common structure of sentences in the English language. First, we have the subject HYBRIDS, then we have the verb PRODUCE, and then we have the direct object LESS POLLUTION, and later a phrase that we don't need to name. The object of a sentence is determined by asking the question What? (What do hybrids produce? - Less pollution), and it is written as O. IO stands for indirect object, which doesn't appear here.

'Take the Plunge' is a fabulous article with the message that 'Determination is the key to success'. We can simply transform incomprehensible into conceivable on the off chance that we have certainty and solid self-control. The author, Gloria Emerson, has enlightened us regarding her own involvement of venturing out to demonstrate this message.
