Answer and Explanation:
Paine uses personification to show how America has the capacity to be happy to get rid of foreign domination. As we know America is a continent (although Paine is referring to the country, USA) and therefore it is an inanimate being, but the ability to be happy is something unique to living beings. When Paine uses this ability to describe a state of America, he is using personification to show how happy American citizens will be with an independent and self-sufficient America that can tackle its own challenges without being dependent on anyone, being happy.
"And on the point now in question seems to be altogether blind and babbling" seems to sum up the opinion of the ancient Greeks and their studies of processes like the motion of matter perhaps because at that time of history of the classical learning much of it was based on pure speculation without going out and getting one's hands dirty and really perceiving phenomena with one's 5 senses as Georgius Agricola did in going down in underground mines to find out firsthand how mining was carried out.
Excerpt: Good morning teachers, students, and distinguished alumni—thank you all for joining me on this momentous occasion. I’m Mayor Kenndrick, and I’m thrilled to announce the launch of Wessex County’s first community garden here at South Falls High School. This magnificent project is funded by a grant from Green Planet Organics as part of their Gardens Grow Great Communities program. We’re so appreciative of their commitment to this amazing program. You might be wondering why we’re planting a garden at a high school. Unfortunately, recent statistics show that most high school students spend too much time indoors. We’re all guilty of wasting time in front of the computer or television when we could be outside getting fresh air and exercise. Most of you probably think that exercise involves running laps or spending hours inside a gym. In reality, exercising can be something as simple as planting seeds or pulling out weeds. Anything that gets your blood flowing is good for you and your body. Gardening has many therapeutic benefits. This program affords students the opportunity to commune with nature as part of a new curriculum that combines environmental science and physical education. Spending time in a garden also forges a connection between you and your natural habitat, enhancing your appreciation for the environment. This community garden will also facilitate social interaction between students and community members as they work toward a common goal.
