K. Anders Ericcsson's publication <em>The Role of Deliberate Practice in the Acquisition of Expert Performance </em>sought to identify the reasons behind the extraordinary abilities of select individuals. It first debunks that the exceptional abilities possessed by these individuals is solely as a result of genetics. Besides the amount of hours and time that a person spends practicing the activity; he mentions the importance of parental support to the honing and development of skill in the particular activity. This parental support may not only be for biological parents but also teachers and other influential adults in the child's life who provide motivation and further avenues for the child to develop their talent in the activity. He states "...We also recognize that being told by parents  and teachers that they are talented, that is, genetically endowed  with unusual gifts, most likely increases motivation, boosts  self-confidence, and protects young performers against doubts about eventual success during the ups and downs of the extended  preparation." (p. 399)

What does the event with mr.radley and his shotgun show us about racism in maycomb
sesenic [268]

Answer:

The event with Mr. Radley and his gunshot reveals that people in Maycomb were prejudiced and racist.

Explanation:

'To Kill A Mickingbird' is a novel written by Harper Lee. The book centered around the theme of racism.

In Chapter 6, when Dill, Jem and Scoutt tries to peek into Mr. Radley's house, they hear a gunshot in the house. Mr. Radley fired the gun seeing the shadow of a man, perceiving it to be a <em>black man </em>who might have broke into his house to steal collard greens from his garden.

The theme of racism is prevalent in this event as Mr. Radley shots the gun without even thinking twice or looking whose the shadow was. Perceiving that the shadow is of a <em>black man </em>as an intruder brings forth the theme of racism in the novel and also reveals that people in Maycomb were overtly racist.

What type of rhyme is used in this excerpt from William Butler Yeats's poem "The Municipal Gallery Revisited"? My mediaeval knee
Arlecino [84]
Hello, the answer here would be "slant rhyme". It cannot be a "strict rhyme" because it is not strict, the rhyme changes throughout the poem, it doesn't follow the same scheme. It isn't "internal rhyme" as well, because the words don't rhyme within a single line. It isn't a "double rhyme" because these are all monosyllabic words (one syllable) and for it to be a double rhyme there needs to be at least to syllables in a word. So the only option is "slant rhyme", which isn't exactly rhyming, for example, "dear" and "door" would be considered slant rhyme.
