Read the passages. Passage One Coral reefs that are falling apart are only one problem affecting ocean environment. Skeletons of

dead coral animals make up coral reefs. Because living corals do not thrive without sun, they attach to the top of the reef. Without specific amounts of light, temperature, and oxygen, the coral reef cannot continue to support life. If the problems of erosion and pollution continue, there will not be a suitable home for sea life. Passage Two Thousands of fish would not have anywhere to live without coral reefs. Beautiful white, sandy beaches would not exist without any reef. There is nowhere that is better for diving because of the brilliant and beautiful marine life that lives among the reefs. But only a few parks have been established to protect the fragile environment of coral reefs. Which of the following is not true about the two passages? Both authors suggest that coral reefs are fragile. Both authors state that coral reefs are threatened. Both authors suggest that something must be done to save the reefs. Both authors state that coral reefs are polluting the ocean floor.

Answer:

The sentence that is not true about the two passages is Both authors state that coral reefs are polluting the ocean floor.

Explanation:

The sentence that states that the coral reefs are polluting the ocean floor is far away from the concept of coral reef that is presented in the two passages as the authors have the intention of making people aware of the importance of coral reef in favor of keeping the marine life and its balance and how it is important to protect them since they are in danger.

How does guy de Maupassant create suspense and surprise at the end of an uncomfortable bed
motikmotik

Answer:

The author creates suspense by providing possible scenarios of what may happen. The narrator examines the room in great detail, and the reader gets a sense that something can happen at any moment. The room becomes quiet and dark and, even as he goes to sleep, the narrator is convinced something will happen. Instead of immediately telling readers what happens when the narrator wakes up, the author provides ambiguous details. “I stretched out my hand to find out what was the nature of this object. I felt a face, a nose, and whiskers which made me jump straight out of the soaked sheets, and rush in my nightshirt into the corridor, the door of which I found open.” Finally, the narrator shares that he actually caused the whole incident to happen.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

A current theme that is portrayed in "Animal Farm" is that physical force without political consciousness means nothing.

George Orwell got the idea for his dystopian fable (Animal Farm) after realizing that humans are capable of taming and commanding animals because they, although stronger, are not aware that they are being dominated, and that a similar relationship was established between bosses and the proletariat.

That is to say, it used the very principle of the fable, the inversion between the human and animal roles, as a parallel to the organization of labor in capitalist society, to demonstrate that the relations of power that would be formed among the proletarians themselves after the revolution could misrepresent the socialist ideal.

Why did the caliphs demonstrate religious tolerance to Jews and Christians? The caliphs believed all three religions shared the
Phantasy [73]

Answer: The caliphs knew freedom of worship led to an overall stronger empire.

Freedom of worship has not been common in states of the past. However, whenever it has been implemented, it has led to stronger empires. An example is the Roman Empire. At its height, the Roman Empire controlled large areas of Europe, Africa and Asia. However, whenever they conquered a new territory, they allowed the people to continue to practice their traditional religion. The caliphs adopted a similar approach. Allowing other religions meant that the conquered population was happier, and that they rebelled less, contributing to the strength of the caliphate.

Consider the following sentence: "That chick wears a lot of bling." In one hundred words or less, discuss whether this sentence
ozzi
This sentence gives an overall negative connotation because you're using a derivative means of describing the woman and he jewelry along with saying that the amount she is wearing is "a lot" more than what you would expect. It conjures up an image of a street adult woman with gold jewelry and thug-like clothing. It would not be an appropriate way to describe your grandmother given the age gap in both vocabulary and the overall negative connotation of the sentence.
