English

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there´s enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

The overall message of the poem is that freedom and safety are not only potentially temporary ("here we are free for a while"), but also everyone´s responsibility, whether we are directly affected or not.

Explanation:

In "Elsewhere," by Derek Walcott, the Caribbean poet reflects on the oppression, cruelty, and injustice happening in many places around the world that are ignored by those not affected by them. In the final stanza, he states that the "darker crime", meaning what´s even worst than those crimes, is the lack of action by those who could act against such injustices. According to him, showing concern but doing nothing about it is making "a career of conscience."

How does Rand develop the theme that individuals who are free to think on their own can make the greatest discoveries? Support y
Tresset [83]

The novella “Anthem” is set in a Dystopian world where technology, scientific development, education, and equality were under the control of totalitarian leaders. This type of society came into existence after the Great Rebirth when a great war was fought. The land of Anthem seems primitive and distant from our world which equates much with a mythical fantasy land. Ann Rand wrote this novella to give a picture of the future which we would most probably be witnessing. She has tried to highlight the ills in the society which the future is carrying for the coming generation.  

After running off from their society, Prometheus (Liberty) and Gaea (Equality) discovers a house on the top of a mountain. With astonishment, they find the house small, colorful with windows, mirrors, bedrooms, clothes kept in closets, and a small library in it. Since they have never witnessed any such thing, they found it strange but at the same time they didn’t want to share these things with anyone else.  The society from which they ran away was a communist one where the things which eased the life was under prohibition. They were not allowed to have friends or relationships with one another. Their lives were short and miserable resulting in grief and sadness. The use of technology was minimum, and education was a tool of brainwashing.

Ayn Rand wrote this novel to focus on the ills of the Second World War and against the Soviet Union communism. According to Rand, when an individual focus too much on society he forgets about his own personal life. This novel gives an insight to the ills of Industrial Revolution which valued more on state and erased the values of human rights.

Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. The year is 326 B.C. Alexander the Great stands at the Indus River in what is now
yan [13]

The first option is:  a map of Alexander the Great's route and the site of the sugar cane discovery.

This is because the central idea of the passage is to let the reader know about the context and events that led to Alexander the great  know about the sweet reed. And for that reason a map of Alexander the Great's route would help understand the final result mentioned in the passage.

The second option is: a timeline showing when Darius l and Alexander the Great learned of sugar cane.

The passage shows that bacause of the books of Herodotus concerning emperor Darius I, greeks had a piece of knowledge of the sweet reed. And so, a timeline would help the reader visualize the relation between these two periods related to the discovery of sugar cane.
