Answer:

The first excerpt means that a man was allowing his mood to interfere with his actions. In the text we can see that the man is bothered with something that makes him angry and this makes him drive faster than recommended. Even though he doesn't know what left him like this, his mood is not normal.

The second excerpt means that there is a case of prejudice between two groups of people, which prevents friendships from being made and that some jokes, which may be offended, are said.

Explanation:

In the first excerpt we can observe the influence of our emotions on what we do, which can even put us in situations where we don't care about the risk we run. These emotions may even arise for no apparent reason, this will not change the potential for influence they have.

The second excerpt shows how cases of racism and prejudice prevent good opportunities from being realized. This is because it prevents people from making wonderful friendships that will contribute to different moments in our life.

Vika [28.1K]
BOTH TECHNICIAN A AND B ARE CORRECT.
Coolants are installed in vehicles to prevent overheating. When new, the coolants are usually basic in nature, that is, they have pH above 7 but with time the pH decreases. Also, OAT and HOAT coolant have pH values which is lower than that of old green IAT coolant when newly bought.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

In Umuofia, the Christians are led by a kindly white man named Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown restrains the zeal of some of the fanatical converts. A convert named Enoch is particularly violent, always stirring up trouble; Brown strives to moderate Enoch's excesses. Mr. Brown is a wise and patient man; he befriends many of the local great men, and earns their affection. He spends a good deal of time with Akunna; they speak through an interpreter on the subject of religion. Neither man converts the other, but Mr. Brown learns much about the local religion and concludes that missionary work should be subtle and indirect: direct confrontation will not work. He also tries hard to get people to send their children to the Christian school. At first, people only send their lazy children. But more and more people begin to go as they realize that the ability to read and write opens up great social mobility. The DC is surrounded by Africans from Umaru; these literate subordinates earn high wages and how power in Umuofia. Mr. Brown's school begins to produce results.

Marianne Moore’s “Poetry” is written in defense of poetry. In the excerpts, which three lines or phrases reflect Moore’s opinion
Ne4ueva [31]

This poem written by Marianne Moore has had several versions written by the author herself, given her desire on being clear and precise. The first version of this poem appeared in 1919 and it comprised 30 lines, which then she cut down to 13 in 1925. Then, finally, in 1967, she published a final version that was cut down to only 4 lines. A lot of criticism has been given to this poem as it seems at first that the poet is literally saying that she dislikes poetry. However, this comes because the last version of the poem does not give the reader a glimpse into what the author means really and whether she truly dislikes all poetry or not. However, after much studying it is discovered that what Moore is saying is not that she dislikes all poetry, but only the type that has given precedence to intelligence over imagination and therefore becomes so convoluted that people are incapable of understanding it. She, in turn, defends the type that she considers good and acceptable poetry and she defines it as the one where the imagination overcomes the intelligence and the abstract and allows the reader to almost feel what the author is trying to convey. This can be seen in this particular excerpt from the line that says thus: "nor till the poets among us can be "literalists of the imagination" - above insolence and triviality and can present for inspection, "imaginary gardens with real toads in them," shall we have it."
