Read the excerpt from The Hot Zone and the summary that follows it. Half of this biocontainment operation was going to be news c

ontainment. C. J. Peters's comments to The Washington Post were designed to create an impression that the situation was under control, safe, and not all that interesting. C. J. was understating the gravity of the situation. But he could be very smooth when he wanted, and he used his friendliest voice with the reporters, assuring them over the telephone that there really was no problem, just kind of a routine technical situation. Somehow the reporters concluded that the sick monkeys had been "destroyed as a precaution" when in fact the nightmare, and the reason for troops, was that the animals hadn't been destroyed. Summary of central idea: It was very important to keep the truth about this operation from the news. What best describes this summary of the central idea? It is a strong summary because it is subjective and provides the writer’s opinion about the paragraph’s central idea. It is a strong summary because it is objective and accurately expresses the paragraph’s central idea. It is a weak summary because it is subjective and does not provide the writer’s opinion about the paragraph’s central idea. It is a weak summary because it is objective and does not accurately express the paragraph’s central idea.

Answer:

According to Shelby Ostergaard, religious wars and the Protestant Reformation were key elements in leading Europe into the nation-state system.

Explanation:

In the 15th century, a conflict within the Catholic Church prompted the Protestant Reformation and the European religious wars and that fragmented the European political order. The conflict ended when the Peace of Westphalia (1648) was signed, establishing Roman Catholicism, Lutheranism, and Calvinism as different authentic Christian beliefs, and reorganizing Europe from a tribal system into the nation-state system.

Part B Elaborate on the central idea about social classes that Countee Cullen depicts in his poem "For a Lady I Know." Provide t
Serjik [45]

Answer:

In his poem "For a Lady I Know," Countee Cullen depicts the clash between the upper and lower classes of society. The poem is assumed to be about upper-class white Americans who treat African Americans poorly. He points out the audacity of the upper class to presume that African Americans would continue to wait on them forever, even after death:

She even thinks that up in heaven

Her class lies late and snores

While poor black cherubs rise at seven

To do celestial chores.

This poem suggests that white Americans don’t want to help improve the lifestyle of poor African Americans but are comfortable with the minority races serving them forever.

zubka84 [21]

In Snow Bound the authors sense of hope came from his family

Explanation:

This is a long narrative poem written by John Greenleaf Whittier recalling the incidents that happened during a snow storm. In this poem he describes how his family was hit by snow storm and then eventually snowbound and the consequences which caused them to be shut off from the entire world.

At first when the snow storm hailed the family was threatened and they planned ways to clear the huge piles of snow from their house but as days passed on it became more severe. The family started to read stories, remain calm and they found the situation much pleasing and they started enjoying the snow rather than being depressed. They gathered the hope that they would remain alive but it was no so and it was only the author and his brother who survived

zysi [14]
It's such a typical scene, mass delirium, however we more often than not observe it in a considerably less uncommon shape. In a nursery, when one infant begins crying, they all begin crying. At the point when a couple of children on a play area begin singling out somebody, the rest float around, cheer, and possibly get a kick or two. At the point when there is a radical deal on wedding outfits, groups of individuals go insane.
