I was fast asleep . Suddenly I heard a knock at the door . I thought it can't have been my parents they've already fallen asleep . I walked quietly to my brother Justin's door and knocked on it. He opened it and asked me gently what was wrong. I told him that I had heard a noise at the door and I felt scared . Justin said I could stay in his room as long as i wanted. In the morning we'd found out that there was a cat at the door and it had ran away from its owner to find food . We returned the cat to its owner and she thanked us for bringing her cat back safe. Hope this helps

What is one reason Postman believes television is a myth in current culture?
wariber [46]

Answer:

B. Because viewers do not doubt the reality of what they see on TV  

Explanation:

Postman then cites French literary theorist Roland Barthes, arguing that “television has achieved the status of ‘myth’”. What does “myth” mean to Barthes? As Postman explains: “a myth is a way of thinking so deeply embedded in our consciousness that it is invisible”. Here we might pause and review our discussion on semiotics, recalling Levi-Strauss as well as de Saussure.

Myth is language. Images are a type of language. Consequently, when we see a representation of Rosie the Riveter, what comes to mind are a number of ideas, including everything from American determination as reflected by its citizens during World War II to the ideals and concepts espoused by feminist theory. If, as Postman states, television is myth, then what he is arguing for is the idea that television by its very nature and by what it is capable of conveys a complex series of ideas that is already deeply embedded within our subconscious. Or, as Postman more succinctly puts it: We rarely talk about television, only about what is on television—that is, about its content”.

Ksivusya [100]
<span>"The mud of the river-bed swallowed up these obscure acts of vengeance—savage, yet legitimate; these unrecorded deeds of bravery; these silent attacks fraught with greater danger than battles fought in broad day, and surrounded, moreover, with no halo of romance."

The above passage conveys the courage of the resistance movement. In particular the reader is persuaded by the words "bravery" and "danger" in "...deeds of bravery..." and "...fraught with greater danger than battles fought in broad day...".</span>

Item 4 What is the best definition of fascist as it used in this sentence? The man says he alone has the solution to the world's
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Based solely on this sentence? Best definition if we're only using this is...

A person who is authoritarian ('he alone'), blunt ('uses the literal meanings of words') and forcibly supresses others ('will not listen to others', 'makes decisions on behalf of others').

Not too far off the mark, but there's a lot more to fascism than is shown here.
