 In this excerpt from the poem "Thanatopsis" by William Cullen Bryant, the writer tells us that when we die, we will "sleep" with all kinds of elegant and important people. There will be "patriarchs" (meaning parents, heads of families or male leaders) long since when the Earth was young ("the infant world"). This section of the poem deals precisely with the idea that when we die we all lie down together in a large grave, the writer making it sound like something good.
  The answer to the meaning of the word infant has to do with the letter B) past.

Rzqust [24]

The correct answer is C. (Perenson 30)

Explanation:

In writing, a citation refers to the use of the words and ideas of an external source and therefore another author, which is commonly used to support and explain the ideas during a text. According to the MLA manual and other style manuals for writing academical paper when using the ideas or words of another author it is necessary to make clear which ideas are being used and to whom they belong, this is done by using in-text citation during the text and creating a work cited list at the end of the document with all the information of the source cited.

In the case of printed articles from magazines or similar publications, it is established during in-text citation it is necessary to include the last name of the author of the article followed by the page number which is usually done by including this information in parenthesis or doing a parenthetical citation. This means in the case of the source presented the parenthetical citation should include the last name of the author "Perenson" and the page number "30" therefore the option that shows the correct parenthetical citation of this source is  (Perenson 30).

Read the excerpt from act 2, scene 1, of Julius Caesar. PORTIA. Brutus is wise, and, were he not in health, He would embrace the
abruzzese [7]

The answer is:

Portia says that if Brutus were simply sick, he would do something to get better. As his wife and other half, she pleads with him to tell her what is on his mind. Then she inquires about the men who were sneaking around their house.

In Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar," Brutus' wife, Portia, seeks to know what is going through his mind. She even kneels down to ask him the reason he seems so unwell and his mind is so troubled, as promises to keep his secret. She is also worried about the men that have come to see him during the night, who are actually Caesar's conspirators.

tia_tia [17]
Bradbury is trying to show how this society is constantly bombarded with media. In this case, it's advertisements pounding them into a passive state. No one on the train is talking or interacting. They are just sitting listening to the advertisement like they are being brainwashed into buying denham's dentifrice. In contrast to this Montag is trying to read a passage from the Bible about letting go of material things (including Denham's dentifrice). This juxtaposition between the natural world and materialism further shows how society is so wrapped up in media that they are unaware of the world around them.
