1- <span>The ancient Chinese board game “Go” is invented long before there was any writing to record its rules. A game from the impossibly distant past has now brought us closer to a moment that once seemed part of an impossibly distant future: a time when machines are cleverer than we are.

2- </span><span>For years, Go was considered the last redoubt against the march of computers. Machines might win at chess, draughts, Othello, three-dimensional noughts and crosses, Monopoly, bridge, and poker. Go, though, is different.

The game required intuition, strategising <u>and</u> character reading, along with vast numbers of moves and permutations. According to legend, it was invented by a Chinese emperor to teach his subjects balance and patience: qualities unique to human intelligence.

That single game of Go marks a milestone on the road to the “technological singularity”, the moment when artificial intelligence becomes capable of self-improvement and learns faster than humans can control or understand.</span><span>

Answer:
Socio-cultural theory of cognitive development.
Explanation: The Russian psychologist Vygotsky's theory is a milestone and the basis of constructivism. He felt that social learning precedes development. He explains that "every function in child's cultural development occurs twice, firstly, on social level(interpsychological) and secondly, on individual level"(intrapsychological). Thus, when Xavier modifies the poetic techniques he is reflecting Vygotsky's instructional principle of cognitive development according to which child constructs knowledge actively. He says cognition and consciousness are the by-products of socialization.
Answer:
Juliet: “My bounty is as boundless as the sea.”
Explanation:
Visual motif is a visual pattern, which in the context of Romeo & Juliet, means the use of descriptive language focusing on the sense of sight. All the options except for Juliet's dialogue, focuses on this, with Mercutio's "Blind is ....", Romeo's "What light through younder ...", and Friar Laurence's "The grey-eyed morn smiles ...".
Juliet's part, instead is a form of simile, describing how her bounty is like the boundless sea - but it does not look like one.
Answer:
I think that this quote is trying to describe that the traditions that have been passed down and used time and time again by the 'primitive' will forever be more tangible. Because when he says "the fantasy of modern times" it's almost like he is claiming that they are just ideas and wishes and wants for this more modern society and way of living, whereas, with the "lore of the primitive" these normal methods of survival have been used and proven effective over again. A good comparison to that phrase could be, "if it ain't broke don't fix it", which is essentially what I think that Anton Chekhov was trying to say.
