The statement that best describes the author´s claim in this passage is the first one: Violent uprisings were common, but Gandhi worked to show that resistance could be nonviolent.

Gandhi (1869-1948) was an Indian activist who led the Indian Independence movement against Bristish rule. He inspires movements of civil rights and freedom in a context of violent colonization. He employed non-violent civis disobedience claiming that "Non violence is a weapon of the strong".

He was arrested many times, he supported peace armies during both War Worlds. He was finally assassinated at the age of 78 by a militant Hindu nationalist.

Read the excerpt from "Ship's Chronometer from HMS Beagle” and consider the accompanying image.
suter [353]

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.

Dear Ms. Smith,

I have read your new proposal for the workers' free days policy. After analyzing it, I consider that the extension and freedom in the use of our free days is excellent. Many times we get sick and decide to stay at home resting but then we have to do many medical procedures to prove our illness on the days we did not attend, with the new policy, workers should not be worry about getting medical notes when they are sick, this is really an advantage because it will allow us to rest peacefully.

About taking two consecutive days off is a great idea, many times the workers want to take a couple of days off to make small trips or to do some personal matters but we are embarrassed to ask for two days of rest in a row, so we prefer to wait until the weekend or wait until it is vacation time.

Although the proposal is very beneficial for the workers I think it is necessary to create some regulation parameters. For example, no more than three workers from the same department should take their two consecutive days off the same day as this can be counterproductive and generate a workload on other workers.

Also, although workers have the freedom to take a personal or sick day it is necessary to inform the head of the department as soon as possible in case there is any work that must be completed that same day, in this way the work that worker should do that day do not delay the work of others.

In conclusion, I believe that the new time off policy for workers is excellent and can improve the work performance of workers if it isregulated correctly. I hope that my answer will be useful to help you establish this new policy.


Best regards,

Lines 9-12 compare the "ashes of youth" to _____. a deathbed twilight fire youth
maw [93]

Answer:

Compares the "ashes of youth" to a "youth"

Explanation:

In these lines, the author tends to compare himself to the glowing remnants of a fire, which lie on the ashes that once let it burn; it will be extinguished as it sinks. It reveals that the youthful life is gone as ashes which happens to bring one on the deathbed. Therefore, it's comparing the life of a youth as ashes of youth which is gone as one on their deathbed which means inevitable death.

This is from Sonnet 73 by William Shakespeare.
