The correct answer is "The image aids readers' understanding of key concepts". A nautical chronometer made by Thomas Earnshaw is now in the British Museum. It was used in the ship that carried Charles Darwin on his voyage around the world as part of the equipment of HMS Beagle. It was not the first chronometers, but it was the first lower-cost chronometers.  It was brass and it was around the size of a large pocket watch.

When Levy was<br> growing up, why<br> was she "indifferent to Jamaica"?
kari74 [83]

Answer: She was trying to fit in and be as British as possible

Explanation:

In the essay, ''Back to My Own Country'' by Andrea Levy, we are introduced to Andrea's family who had moved from Jamaica to Britain where she was born.

Her family did not want to appear out of place in Britain and so strove to fit in by acting and talking as British-like as they could. Andrea inherited this and tried as well to act British. This led to her being indifferent to her home country Jamaica so much so that she never bothered to tell her friends about it (not that they cared).

Which statement best describes the use of satire in this passage? Parody is used to illustrate the impact of Stalin’s purge. Rid
Mariana [72]

<u>Answer:</u>

The statement that best describes the use of satire in this passage is - Reversal is used to show how Clover, representing the people, has changed ideals. The accurate answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Satire is a kind of text which makes something absurd to reveal or correct it. Orwell uses this satire to achieve his purpose. He uses it to give the passage right rhythm.

The scene in which the pigs walk slowly on two legs as a human mimic is the best example of satire in the novel “Animal Farm.” He also illustrates a reversal which shows how the actual practices and beliefs of Animal Farm had been completely suppressed.

Which statements support the inference that Brutus is motivated to protect Rome from tyranny? Check all that apply. Brutus fears
bija089 [108]

<u>Answer</u>:

(B) “Brutus cares about all Romans” And (E) “Brutus does not know how Caesar will change”.

These statements support the inference that Brutus is motivated to protect Rome from tyranny.

<u>Explanation</u>:

'Julius Caesar' by “William Shakespeare” is a story about how Roman Republic came to an end.

“Julius Caesar” was a great Roman 'general' and 'senator'. His good friend, “Brutus” loved Rome more than he loved his dear friend, Caesar. So, his enemies even manipulated him to believe that Caesar might misuse his powers and planned to kill him to preserve the "Republic".  

Brutus strongly believed that Caesar's death will benefit Rome. He is thus confused between supporting Caesar and Rome and is the “tragic hero” of the play.
