Similarities and difference between "inborn talents" from the "new picture" is given below.
Explanation:
“In the past, leadership scholars considered charisma, intelligence and other personality traits to be the key to effective leadership. Accordingly, these academics thought that good leaders use their inborn talents to dominate followers and tell them what to do, with the goal either of injecting them with enthusiasm and willpower that they would otherwise lack or of enforcing compliance.
“In recent years, however, a new picture of leadership has emerged, one that better accounts for leadership performance. In this alternative view, effective leaders must work to understand the values and opinions of their followers—rather than assuming absolute authority—to enable a productive dialogue with followers about what the group embodies and stands for and thus how it should act. By leadership, we mean the ability to shape what followers actually want to do, not the act of enforcing compliance using rewards and punishments.
Leadership effectiveness is the product of individual ability to be the architect of culture, to understand the values and attitudes of followers (who may be colleagues as well as direct reports), and to inspire the contributions, cooperation and mutual support of the people around the would-be leader.
According to this new approach, no fixed set of personality traits can assure good leadership because the most desirable traits depend on the nature of the group being led and the context at hand.
I think that the best answer for this is A. Because he knew that the coldest snaps never froze these springs, and he knew likewise their danger. So in the end he knew they were traps. I hope this helps ;) you are welcome.
“Lourdes knows. She understands, as only a mother can, the terror she is about to inflict, the ache Enrique will feel and finally the emptiness”(Nazario 1). When Enrique was only five years old, his mother Lourdes made the decision to leave her children and go north to the United States. There in the United States she hopes to find work and support her struggling family back in Honduras. In Enrique’s Journey by Sonia Nazario; a literacy non-fiction, Enrique at the age of 16 goes on a long journey from Honduras to try and find his mother Lourdes with nothing but her phone number, he is still heartbroken from her departure 11 years ago. In Antoine De Saint-Exupèry’s work of fiction titled the Little Prince; an allegory:, a pilot crashes in the Saharan desert, and meets a little boy who claims to be the prince of his planet on asteroid 325 or known by humans as B-612. While in the desert the little prince tells the pilot, his new friend, of his interactions with other various types of people around his neighboring planets. Enrique and the Pilot both learn about responsibility and what it takes to survive.
When I think of Gothic, I don't think of anything positive, so A would definitely not be it. The same thing with B. Anything with beautiful, sparkling, bright and colourful things just doesn't scream goth.
For C, I could see where it would be going with using a jail yard as a setting, but since the answer specifically says on a sunny afternoon, then I don't think that would be correct either. When people think sunny, they usually think happy.
I think D would be most accurate. It doesn't seem like it would have any positive attributes, and it would probably even make some people uneasy.
So yeah, I'm not 100% sure, but this is the best I can do to figure it out. I think D would be the best choice! :)
