Answer:

"let us sport us while we may"

"at once our time devour"

Explanation:

These are the statements that are most compatible with a <em>carpe diem</em> perspective. <em>Carpe diem</em> is the idea of seizing the day. It refers to an attitude that supports the idea of enjoying life while you can, without worries, and without concern about the future. In these lines, the author states that they will have fun while they can, and that they will devour their time, which are compatible ideas with this philosophy.

Can you say that human,whale,and bat might belong to a common ancestral group?
Molodets [167]
Humans, whales and bats have one thing in common: they're all mammals. This means that they have a common ancestor that is not shared by for example fish: in this way, they can be said to have a common ancestor, the first mammal.

However, in the end, all life on earth can be trade to a common ancestor- so to some degree this can also be said about all animals.

Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England. Elizabethan people suffer from some afflictions that no
umka2103 [35]
I<span>t provides the example of sweating sickness.

This example shows the reader that there was a disease and cause of death in Elizabethan England that does not still exist to our knowledge today. Most people probably had never heard of 'sweating sickness', so when it's presented in the passage it is effective in showing that Elizabethan ailments were different than modern ones. </span>

Can forgiveness play a role in criminal justice (commonlit)
Mazyrski [523]

4. D.  Andy was shocked and horrified to hear the details of how Ann was killed and felt her loss more deeply.

5. C. “‘Hearing Conor,’ he said, ‘I made sounds I’ve never heard myself make. To hear that your daughter was on the floor saying ‘no’ and holding her hands up and still be shot is just — it’s just not...’ He tried to explain the horror of such knowledge, but it’s not easy.” ( Paragraph 92)

This evidence best proves the answer to question #4 and explains why #4 is correct. In option C, it specifically states Andy's reaction to Conor's account of Ann's murder. Listening to Conor tell about how Ann was on the floor and saying, "no" while she was helpless to stop him, horrified and shocked Andy. The narrator specifically says that the horror of the knowledge was hard for him to explain.

How does odilia feel after La Llorona gives her the sprigs of jojotle?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

She felt dizzy for in her own words, "the room was spinning a little".

Explanation:

"Summer of the Mariposas" is the story of five girls who discovered the body of a man whom they believed came from Mexico, floating in the body of water where they swam. The girls who were cared for by their mother and abandoned by their father decided that instead of going to the police, they would rather take the body back to Mexico and also visit their grandmom there. During their adventure, Odilia who was one of the sisters encountered La Llorana, a ghost who was believed to have taken her children's lives in the river. Initially, she was scared but the woman calmed her fears by telling the girls that the popular story about her was untrue. She gave Odilia an earring to protect her and her sisters five times in the course of their journey.

Later, when the sisters were taken to the home of a woman named Cecilia who was poisoning them, La Llorona gave Odilia Sprigs of Jojotle to help her recover. The Jojotle had a dizzy effect for Odilia commented that she had to go 'sit down on the bed because the room was spinning a little'.
