You could always go with whatever person you see in your own society, that you think represents a different type of community. You can go with a lawyer, and how they are corporate and greedy, or a doctor, to show how much they care, and save lives on a daily basis, or  a soldier, who fights and risks his life every day for his country, or a student, that is just trying to get up in the world by educating himself, or even a parent, that is trying to raise their kid right.

Penn commits a tort while acting in the interest of her undisclosed principal. Who is responsible or liable? Principal and agent
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Principal Only.

Explanation:

The word 'tort' is borrowed from Latin word 'tortum' which means 'wrong, or injustice.' Thus, the word tort means to cause an injury or harm to someone or someone's property.

Tort is committed in many ways. <u>'Agency Relationship Liability Tort'</u> is the type of tort in which a principal and an agent is required. In such torts, a principal will be held responsible directly in cases when he fails to supervise his agent, when he directly commands his agent to commit tort, or when he neglects to check the background of the agent while hiring.

<u>In the given case, the unnamed principal will be held directly responsible for guiding Penn to commit tort. Because Penn committed tort in the interest of her undisclosed principal</u>.

Thus the correct answer is 'Principal Only.'

Read the excerpt from an adaptation of "To Build a Fire."
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The man will realize the wisdom of the old-timer’s warning.

Explanation:

"To build a fire" is a short story by Jack London, this story is about a man who travels to the Yukon ignoring the warnings from an old-timer about the deathly Yukon winters (where temperatures can reach 40 below)

In this excerpt we can see the man saying he was safe, remembering the old-timer warning and thinking that the old-timers were "rather womanish". We can see that he thinks that the warning was not real and that he was safe and will be able to survive and deal with the subzero temperatures of the Yukon, thus, the best prediction based on this excerpt is that he will likely won't be able to continue with this streak of "safeness" and he will realize the wisdom of the old-timer's warning.

Read the sentence.
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The correct answer is "two-thirds".

Explanation:

In English, we use "hyphen" (punctuation mark) to join two or more words. These should not be confused with "dashes", who are a longer punctuation mark and have other uses like separate explanatory phrases.

Hyphens are used to join words or terms to avoid confusions and they are written with no space between them and the words. In some cases, they are used to preserve the text's clarity: when adding a prefix (great-grandmother) or when the final and initial letters coincide (co-operate).

In this specific case, "two-thirds" is a fraction, so the hyphens are used to let know the relation between these two words instead of reading them as separated numbers.

Click to read "Musée des Beaux Arts," by W. H. Auden. Then answer the
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

D. In Brueghel's Icarus, for instance: how everything turns

Quite worriedly toward the disaster

Explanation:

Brueghel's Icarus refers to a painting made by Pieter Brueghel, which puts the spotlight on the townsmen who were around during Icarus' mythological fall from the sky since he flew too close to the sun. It depicts the indifference of the witnesses, who were busy engaging with their pursuits to bother paying attention to the fact that Icarus had just fallen. Since Auden's poem is written in honor of the painting, (D) would be the best answer if the painting instead depicted the witnesses' concern over what is happening instead of indifference.
