Hi again☺
I believe it is the last choice, "and dares to claim the sky..."
It shows that the bird has a daring, or brave character.

The statement that best explains why Shakespeare has Cassius use the word <em>fawn</em> rather than a synonym such as <em>flatter</em> to describe his actions is the A: Fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain. In the excerpt that this question is referring to, the shrewd Cassius is going to reveal some aspects of Brutus's personality, or of his behavior, that he cannot see, and he asks him to trust in him, unless he saw him flattering somebody and then slandering him on their back; in that case, Cassius concludes, Brutus could be suspicious of him. Shakespeare is using the word <em>fawn </em>in Cassius's speech in order to emphasize his manipulative and devious traits. The word does have a negative connotation, and it often implies disapproval of that person's actions.
Answer:
The theme chosen for the rehearsal was: The importance of the wedding gift for Indian culture.
Explanation:
Wedding gifts are a very important point to highlight in the most different cultures in the world. In all regions, this type of gift is very welcome and while some countries, the gift does not have to be something thought out, elaborated (and sometimes not even given), in India it is taken very seriously.
For the Indians, the wedding gift means a lot to the bride and groom and always has to be given an object that is very useful and functional that helps in domestic life and brings beauty to the home.
Plates, cutlery, glasses, furniture are the most prominent wedding gifts in this culture. This says a lot about the affection and care that guests have with the bride and groom. This indicates that the guests want to help with domestic life.
This vision of the present is very beneficial because it avoids the economic expense and the purchase of expensive, garish things that are useless, besides occupying space and dust. In addition, gift-giving narrows the bonds between families and friends, which is one of the most important bonds we have.

Question 3: The answer is C.
By isolating himself, Tumo would not be building resilience, on the contrary, he would be allowing the situation to get the best of him. On the other hand, if he were to maintain a positive stance, take actions before getting fired or see this as an opportunity, Tumo would be developing resilience and getting himself ready for the future that awaits him.
