In the essay Benjamin Franklin wrote in 1784 about Native Americans, titled “Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America”, he stated that the Native Americans were called savages “because their manners differ from ours, which we think the perfection of civility; they think the same of theirs.” The theme of empathy is seen in Franklin’s essay, as he encouraged seeing the other person’s point of view in dealing with the Native Americans. In highlighting the similarity of how Native Americans conduct their public councils to how order is maintained in the British House of Commons, he promoted the value of respect for diversity.

In one essay on Indians, Benjamin Franklin spoke of how the men when young could do the hunting for example but when older could become counselor's and develop oratory skills as their life style allowed for time for contemplation and the development of wisdom. Also, he spoke of how the government in Virginia offered to pay for the university education of some of the young natives and they replied, after some consideration that those that had engaged in this education in the past became useless in the skills of dealing with nature and daily life with their people living on the land so declined the offer but offered instead to educate some white people in their own valuable life skills of living life like a true native American.

Write a compare-and-contrast analysis of how culture shapes the heroes in Heart of a Samurai and Black Ships Before Troy.
aliina [53]

Answer:

The culture in "Black Ships Before Troy" caused a hero to be seen as a traitor, while in "Heart of a Samurai" the culture almost prevented a hero from appearing.

Explanation:

"Black Ships Before Troy" presents a people with a culture very based on religion, where they believed that all the events that happened were due to the action of the gods. Good events were because the gods were happy, while bad events were caused by the wrath of the gods. In this case, when a hero tried to stop the horse sent to Troy and ended up dying before completing his mission, he was seen as a traitor who was rebuked by the gods.

In contrast, "Heart of a Samurai" shows how a boy who dreamed of being a samurai was prevented because his family was made up of fishermen and the culture said that young people should follow their parents' tragedy.

svlad2 [7]
<span>The ideas in the sonnets are similar because both sonnets focus on A) affection. Both these sonnects have a symbol of beauty as something unpleasant, because it is a tool to manipulate with other's hearts and minds. But still, the main idea of both works is affection of this beauty. Both authors point out that beauty can be cruel and unfair, but they can't resist their feelings.</span>

Which sentence contains an intensive pronoun? A) Tanya always talks to herself. B) If you cannot help, I will do it myself. C) T
dezoksy [38]
To best answer this question, we must first clarify what an intensive pronoun is.

Intensive pronouns are reflexive pronoun used to add emphasis to a sentence. As a result, an intensive pronoun is not necessary to the meaning of the sentence. Intensive pronouns are the same as reflexive pronouns: myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves.

Every sentence given above contains reflexive pronouns, but not all of them are intensive pronouns.

In the first sentence, "herself" is a reflexive pronoun. However, it IS essential to the meaning of the sentence. Talking to herself is different than talking to others. Therefore, sentence A. does NOT contain an intensive pronoun.

In the second sentence, "myself" is NOT essential to the meaning of the sentence. If the word "myself' were eliminated from the sentence, the meaning of the sentence would remain the same. There, sentence B. does contain an intensive pronoun.

In the third sentence, the word "themselves" is essential to the meaning of the sentence. If the word "themselves" were eliminated, the meaning of the sentence would not remain the same, because we need to know they went alone (as opposed to going with their parents). As a result, sentence C. does NOT contain an intensive pronoun.

Finally, in the fourth sentence, the word "himself" is necessary to the sentence so that the reader knows just WHO Andy is looking at in the mirror. If this pronoun were removed, the meaning of the sentence would change. As a result, sentence D. does NOT contain an intensive pronoun.

Therefore, the sentence that contains an intensive pronoun is B.
