Which idea from this paragraph supports the claim that “smaller offices are more honest than big ones”? Small offices generally
pogonyaev

The idea that supports the claim that smaller offices are more honest than big ones is the last one, that small communities have more incentives against crime. The reason for this is that if a community has more incentives against crime than another, it is more likely to be more honest as crime is related to dishonesty and this is something the small communities try to avoid.

Write a minimum 150-word response in which you explain the poet's use of extended metaphor in "Cloud." Be sure to cite examples
Allisa [31]

The poem "The Cloud" by Percy Bysshe Shelley employs an extended metaphor, as it compares a cloud to life throughout the whole poem.

The cloud is meant to stand for the cycle of nature, or the unending cycle of life. Through the many cycles and transformations that the cloud endures, Shelley wants to represent the never ending cycle of birth, death and rebirth that all beings on Earth go through. The poem, therefore, focuses on the mutability of nature as the only constant in the physical world. Moreover, this allows the author to also employ the cloud as a symbol of the many changes that humans undergo throughout their lives.

Jerry, Kevin, Todd and Mark all live on the first floor of an apartment complex. One is a manager, one is a computer programmer,
Elden [556K]

Since Kevin and Mark eat carpool with the manager, that means that neither of them is the manager.

That leaves two options: Jerry and Tom. But later on, we are told that Tom watches TV with the manager.

Therefore, the only possible answer is Jerry.
