In "Things Fall Apart," one religious practice of the people of Umuofia is the practice of animal sacrifice.

They describe sacrificing a rooster before planting crops. The sacrifice is dedicated to Ani, the owner of all land. A rooster is also sacrificed to Ifejioku, the god of yams. 

This practice is culturally significant because the sacrifice is meant to ensure good crops. Ultimately, these sacrifices ensure the health of the village, since if the crops fail, the villagers will be without a large part of their food supply. Since the crops are so essential to the villagers' health, the sacrifice has a great cultural significance.

Study the cartoon Modern Window Shopping by Nate Beeler. What meaning is revealed through the use of an analogy in this cartoon?
Alina [70]

<em>Consumers are trading retail store shopping for online shopping.</em> This is the correct option.

The  three consumers are clicking on " different windows" on their mobile phones. They will not longer look at  real shop windows, therefore , they are window shopping virtually. They are doing this because they will probably buy things on line. They will not go to a retail shop; one of the customers has a newspaper showing the news that this type of shops are closing down. So, as there are more people buying on line, the retail shops will disappear. A new way of window shopping has arrived.

These options are not right:

-Consumers get their news online, not from newspapers. ( The focus is set on buying things from shops. It is not set on the origin of the news).

-Consumers have an increasing desire to acquire new things. ( The desire must have been always the same. Now, the focus is on the consumers' access to the new things they desire).

-Consumers have an increasing desire to acquire new things. ( The cartoon  has set the focus on a new way of shopping. The new way of shopping can be done through technology).

Answer:

Explanation:

Hi, so there's probably a lot of different interpretations about this. The way I think about it is that if you communicate smoothly and clearly. Most of the time, people will understand what saying a lot easier. In contrast, if you don't,  it makes it much more difficult to understand concepts sometimes.

Hope this helps you out! Have a great day c:
