What is the townspeople's first reaction to the appearance of the cylinder from Mars in War of the Worlds?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

They were curious but generally unafraid of the strange thing.

Explanation:

Herbert George Wells wrote the science fictional novel "War of the Worlds" detailing a conflict between humans and the extraterrestrial beings. Wells uses an unidentified narrator and his brother as his protagonists, showing the alien invasion in England.

In "Chapter IV: The Cylinder Opens", the narrator tells how the strange cylinder that houses the Martian aliens began to open. The people who had been engrossed in the strange new thing that had suddenly appeared from the sky were suddenly alarmed with the motion. Some were eager to get away from the scene while most were beginning to flock themselves to see the new scene, everyone wanting to get a glimpse of what is to be revealed. Overall, they were too taken by the strange new thing than feeling any fear of it.

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

  They gathered around the "meteor" with curiosity rather than fear.

Explanation:

  After a few months have passed from the explosions were seen by the narrator in mars a "meteor" lands near his house.

  When the cylinder opened, the Martians emerged but they can´t stand the earth´s conditions. They retreat again into the cylinder. A group of humans approached the cylinder again, now with a white flag to show that they don´t want to hurt them. But they get incinerated by a beam beginning the war.

  I hope this answer helps you.

Collectively, American music, television programs, and movies are referred to as:A. outdated trends.
B. popular culture.
C. yesterday's fads.
D. social movements.

Answers

The answer here is B, popular culture. A cannot be the correct answer as these are not outdated trends (at least not yet) - we still listen to American music, watch TV programs and movies. They are not C - yesterday's fads, which basically means the same as A. And they are not social movements either (like feminism, free love, veganism, etc.). So these are collectively called - popular culture. Ideas that are in the mainstream.

the answer is b. popular culture

Which sentences in this excerpt from Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Contest" show Policles's lack of knowledge about the rules and restrictions of his society?Thence he concentrated himself upon the stage, on which Metas, a well-known minstrel from Corinth and an old friend of Policles, was singing and playing without much encouragement from the audience. To Policles it seemed that Metas was having less than his due, so he applauded loudly, but he was surprised to observe that the soldiers frowned at him, and that all his neighbours regarded him with some surprise. Being a man of strong and obstinate character, he was the more inclined to persevere in his clapping when he perceived that the general sentiment was against him.
But what followed filled the shepherd poet with absolute amazement. When Metas of Corinth had made his bow and withdrawn to half-hearted and perfunctory applause, there appeared upon the stage, amid the wildest enthusiasm upon the part of the audience, a most extraordinary figure.
. . . The blue-clad player struck several chords upon his lyre, and then burst suddenly out into the "Ode of Niobe." Policles sat straight up on his bench and gazed at the stage in amazement. The tune demanded a rapid transition from a low note to a high, and had been purposely chosen for this reason. The low note was a grunting, a rumble, the deep discordant growling of an ill-conditioned dog.
. . . It was madness—insufferable madness! If this were allowed to pass, there was an end of all musical justice in Greece. Policles’ conscience would not permit him to be still. Standing upon his bench with waving hands and upraised voice, he protested with all the strength of his lungs against the mad judgment of the audience.

Answers


1. To Policles, it seemed that Metas was having less than his due, so he applauded loudly, and he was surprised to observe that the soldiers frowned at him, and that all his neighbors regarded him with some surprise. (Apparently, it is not common for the audience to show their appreciation in such an overt manner).

2. Standing upon his bench and waving hands and unpraised voice, he protested with all the strength of his lungs against the mad judgement of the audience. (This act is an apparent favorite of the audience but Policles can't stand it.)

What is Communication technology ?

It emphasizes the importance of unified communications and the integration of computers and telecommunications (phone lines and wireless signals), as well as the enterprise software, middleware, storage, and audiovisual components that are required to enable users to access, store, transmit, understand, and manipulate information.

ICT can also refer to the integration of computer networks, telephone networks, and video and audio networks through a single cabling or connection system.

The use of a single unified system for cabling, signal distribution, and management would allow the computer network system and telephone network system to be combined economically.

Any communication equipment, including radio, television, cell phones, computer and network hardware, satellite systems, and other devices, is included under the broad term "ICT."

what's the question ??????

Answer:

what do you want me to do

Explanation:

Read the excerpt from Annus Mirabilis by John Dryden and complete the sentence that follows.O God, said he, thou patron of my days,
Guide of my youth in exile and distress!
Who me, unfriended, brought'st by wondrous ways,
The kingdom of my fathers to possess:

Be thou my judge, with what unwearied care
Since have labour'd for my people's good;
To bind the bruises of a civil war,
And stop the issues of their wasting blood.

Thou who hast taught me to forgive the ill,
And recompense, as friends, the good misled;
If mercy be a precept of thy will,
Return that mercy on thy servant's head.

Or if my heedless youth has stepp'd astray,
Too soon forgetful of thy gracious hand;
On me alone thy just displeasure lay,
But take thy judgments from this mourning land.

Answers

Based on the givenstatement  the best answer would be:

The “King” is praying to God to bring an end to the “ongoing war.”

It is evident in the excerpt that the king is praying for mercy for his people, in order to plead God to stop the bloodshed that is happening in the war.

Answer: In the above lines, the king is praying to God to bring an end to the ongoing war.

In this poem, the first stanza tells us that the speaker considers himself lucky to own the kingdom of his fathers. We see then that the speaker is a king, and that he is speaking to God. Moreover, the second stanza asks God to have pity on his people, and to heal the wounds they have from the civil war. He also asks Him to stop all the wasted blood (the deaths in battle).

What would be a good introduction for an informative essay about the career you would like to have in the feature? Or a Main Idea?

Answers

Opening with a statement about the career you would like to have ("In the future, I hope to work in the field of computer science,") and continuing to explain why ("because computers can be made to do amazing things, and I have a few personal goals in mind,") and perhaps giving an example of an inspiration for that field you compare yourself to ("like Terri Thompson, who admire greatly.") would be a good place to start.
