Read the excerpt below and respond to the prompt. The first thing to be said about St. Thomas as an anthropologist, is that he i

s really remarkably like the best sort of modern biological anthropologist. ... He adopts almost literally the Huxleyan definition of the Agnostic method; "To follow reason as far as it will go"; the only question is-where does it go? He lays down the almost startlingly modern or materialist statement; "Every thing that is in the intellect has been in the senses. ... The Schoolmen may have shot too far beyond our limits in pursuing the Cherubim and Seraphim. But in asking whether a man can choose or whether a man will die, they were asking ordinary questions in natural history; like whether a cat can scratch or whether a dog can smell. Nothing calling itself a complete Science of Man can shirk them. ("The Permanent Philosophy"; pp. 1-2) Explain why G. K. Chesterton claims, "St. Thomas Aquinas, perhaps more than he is anything else, is a great anthropologist." Your explanation should be at least 150 words.

Answer:

Chesterton explains how Thomas Aquinas was way ahead of his time in understanding what it means to be human and had a developed a great sense for ontology. He would argue that there are many of his own contemporaries that think and develop their ideas just like Aquinas did. You can use this as a starting point and develop your essay.

The old-timer had been very serious in laying down the law that no man must travel alone in the Klondike after fifty below. Well, here he was; he had had the accident; he was alone; and he had saved himself. Those old-timers were rather womanish, some of them, he thought. All a man had to do was to keep his head, and he was all right. Any man who was a man could travel alone. But it was surprising, the rapidity with which his cheeks and nose were freezing. And he had not thought his fingers could go lifeless in so short a time. Lifeless they were, for he could scarcely make them move together to grip a twig, and they seemed remote from his body and from him.

Which option was used to revise this ​sentence? Jude followed the​ van, and night was approaching. Night was​ approaching, but J
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Option B.

Moved parts of the sentence around

Explanation:

Let us consider the parts of a complete sentence:

  • The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing, or idea that is doing or performing an action.
  • The verb is the action word in the sentence.
  • The Object is the thing on which the action is performed in a sentence.

We are dealing with two sentences in this question:

1. Jude followed the van

2. Night was approaching

These are two complete sentences with their own subject, verb and object.

They are bound together to form a compound sentence which is "Jude followed the​ van, <em>and</em> night was approaching"

The revised version of the sentence is simply a switch in the positions of the two simple sentences that form the compound sentence. The subject of the sentence was not changed, neither was the object or verb.

This simply means that parts of the compound sentence were moved around. This makes option B the correct answer.

Answer:

The answer is "yes, completely ".

Explanation:

Their imaginative narrative, "The World On Turtle 's Back", not only explains its earth's creation but is also regarding people's dynamic existence. Its legend says that the earth existed under a large sea-tortoise, then composed of a pregnant woman. This was full of conflicts and compelling characters in historical creation. By telling it through complex performances, the Iroquois passed this Story through one generation to the next, that's why it fulfills its functions.
