The selfishness of humanity for sure, and I believe the harmony of life after death, I'm not 100 percent sure about that one.

Answer: 2. the insignificance of life and 3. the selfishness of humanity.

Explanation: In the given excerpt we can see the description of a person's point of view about life, and existence, it represents the insignificance of life because it says life is wondering in cloud of ignorance, and it emphasizes how short is life by saying "To spend and waste time as though you had a million years," it also conveys the selfishness of humanity by saying "To be always at the mercy of one self-centered passion, or another."

PLEASE PLACE PLASTIC AND GLASS CONTAINERS IN SEPERATE BINS<br> please find one error!
dexar [7]

Seperate


Seperate is the error. It is spelled incorrectly. The second e should be an a. The correct spelling for the word is separate. There are no other errors in the sentence as all of the other words are spelled correctly. Since this is probably a sign, usually end punctuation is not included. If end punctuation is necessary, a period or exclamation point would be correct.

How many personal pronouns are in the passage? (Do not count any reflexive, intensive, or indefinite pronouns.)
kifflom [539]

In this passage we have 21 personal pronouns and they are all “I”

" For what I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that the Law is good. So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. For I joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man, but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and make."

blagie [28]
The way I'd change it would be :

'Great White Sharks are quite fascinating creatures if you research the history that goes along with them. Their records are very ancient and they are one of the longest existing species to live on this earth today!'

It's a bit on the scientific side, but I hope I helped even a little.
