Answer:
B. This remark tells us that much of humanity has lost its appreciation for earth and nature, to the point of resenting its mere appearance.
Explanation:
The question above is related to the short story entitled, "The Machine Stops." It focuses on two characters namely, <em>Vashti</em> and<em> Kuno (her son).</em> In the story, <u>people were living underground</u> and no longer on the surface of the earth. They were able to meet their needs through a global <em>Machine. </em>People were placed in<em> isolated rooms</em> where they communicated with other people through <em>instant messages and video conferences. </em>There were actually some people called the "homeless outcasts" who tried to live on the surface of the Earth.
Unlike her son<em>, Kuno</em>, who was interested to visit and know more about the surface of the Earth, <em>Vashti</em> was<em> "not interested in natural inspiration." </em>So, this explains her remark above. It shows<u> how much of humanity has lost their appreciation for earth and nature.</u> This is the extent to which the underground Machine did to people in the "poisoned darkness."
So, this explains the answer.

Answer:
Probably A or B.
Explanation:
"Other countries with such divisions have in fact divided into new nations...but not this one, impossibly interwoven even in its hostilities." The passage does say America is still together despite the decisions, which makes me believe option B is correct. However, A also could be correct because the main idea of the passage largely is the differences between religion, sexuality, and race in America where "What is the point of a nation in which...speak in theory of hatred, one for the other? What is the point of a nation in which one part always seems to be on the verge of fisticuffs with another?"
Answer:
yra is 22 meters above the entrance.
The radios work until Donna is 50 meters away from the entrance.
At that moment, Lyra, Donna, and the entrance form a right triangle.
The hypotenuse is the actual distance between Lyra and Donna.
Distance = √ (22² + 50²)
= √ (484 m² + 2,500 m²)
= √ (2984 m²)
= 54.63 meters.
Rounded to the nearest meter, Distance = 55 meters.
THAT's the maximum point-to-point range of the radios
