Answer:
C) A person does not have to accomplish great things to serve God.
Explanation:
These are last lines from John Milton’s (9 December 1608 – 8 November 1674) one of the most famous short poems "When I Consider How My Light is Spent" or alternatively known as “On His Blindness”.
In the context of these lines Milton compares God with a King and contrasts Him with a lord. In these lines Milton says that God has innumerable (thousands) working at his state moving speedily from place to place (Thousands at his bidding speed). These tasks need men to have light and vision. Since God has innumerable resources he does not need every one to do an active work. Sometimes God also appoints some people on standby and work when the right time comes.
In brief, Milton being previously very active in social and political matters of the country knows that working actively for God is a good deed. But those who are physically hampered (like Milton) also serve God in waiting for their turn to accomplish a task when it is assigned.

What is the correct level of formality for an online discussion about which pets are the cutest?
very informal
informal
quite formal
somewhat formal
The correct level of formality for an online discussion about which pets are the cutest is informal.
In an online discussion about the cuteness of pets, the tone is typically casual and friendly. Participants are likely to share personal opinions and experiences, which is more suited to an informal style of communication. This allows for a relaxed and enjoyable conversation among pet enthusiasts.
The use of colloquial language, emoticons, and casual expressions is common in such discussions, which further supports the choice of an informal level of formality. While it's important to maintain respect and civility, the subject matter does not necessitate a high degree of formality. Therefore, informal is the most appropriate choice for this context.
"The Passing" was likely written for which audience?
children living, or growing up on, a reservation
young boys and girls in middle or high school
children with stepparents
Answer: Young boys and girls in middle or high school
Explanation:
''The Passing'' is a 2016 movie and it is following one car crash accident.
Since the story of ''The Passing'' isn't for kids I would say that the correct answer is that is written for a little bit older audience, boys and girls in the middle or in a high school.
I would say that this is the right answer because Stanley(one of the characters) is showing a voyeuristic fascination because of one couple. Besides this situation, there are more situation between woman and man relationships which older audience can understand better.At the end of the story, one of the characters ends up falling down which is also not a situation for children.
Answer:
all of the above
Explanation:
The author uses a tone that attempts to interest a younger audience by writing a young boys thought and feelings. Therefore the audience is any young person.

What should an objective summary include?
A. all information or ideas and every detail
B. the most complex information or ideas and details
C. the main information or idea and key details
D. the most interesting information or ideas and details
Answer:
A good summary of an essay should probably include the main idea of each paragraph, and the main evidence supporting that idea, unless it is not relevant to the article or essay as a whole. A summary does not need a conclusion, but if the original ends with a message to the reader this should not be left out.
Answer:
Your answer would be C. The main information or idea and key details.
Explanation:
Well it can’t be A because your “summary” would technically just say everything that happened word by word which will tire the reader.
B and D can’t be the answer either since it’s just giving out info, and not the main idea.
Just know that the main idea of each paragraph is very important and will get the reader’s attention. So C,which says that your objective would be getting the main ideas and key details to make a good and effective summary.

For what reasons did medieval writers use allegory? Select all that apply.
to establish an ironic point of view
to explore deep spiritual meanings
to share simple wisdom about how to live a happy life
to protect themselves from political or religious persecution
Answer: Medieval writers used allegory to explore deep spiritual meanings and to protect themselves from political or religious persecution.
Explanation:
The allegory is a figure of speech by which the author seeks to convey a message through story, characters and appealing to people's hearts and close realities, without explicitly saying what they mean.
In medieval times, authors used the allegory to explore deep spiritual meanings, but also to protect themselves from religious or political persecution. First of all, to explore deep spiritual meanings, medieval writers first had to appeal to people's close realities and convey a message by making them understand what they meant first.
Second of all, freedom of expression was severely censored in medieval times and authors could not say what they truly believed. So they used the allegory, making sure that those who wanted to see the hidden meaning beneath their lines will find it and if any authority figure ever questioned them, they could hide behind the literal meaning of their texts.

in the play, abigail does not accuse reverend hales wife of witchcraft like she does in the film.why do you think the directors chose to add this in? what is the purpose of this?

Final answer:
The film's addition of Abigail accusing Reverend Hale's wife of witchcraft aims to intensify the atmosphere of suspicion and highlight the hysteria of the Salem witch trials. It demonstrates Abigail's manipulative power and reflects the historical context where devilry was a credible explanation for misfortunes in Puritan society.
Explanation:
In the context of the film adaptation, directors often make changes to add dramatic effect or to highlight certain themes more than they might be presented in the original play. By having Abigail accuse Reverend Hale's wife of witchcraft in the film, the directors could be adding to the atmosphere of fear and suspicion that characterized the Salem witch trials. This creative liberty serves to underscore the hysteria and to show how no one, not even the wife of a reverend, is safe from accusations. These changes can also deepen the emotional impact on the audience and provide a more visual and gripping representation of the events of the witchcraft in Salem.
The addition of such a dramatic accusation also serves to show the extent of Abigail's manipulative power and the pervasiveness of the panic, reflecting the historic climate where the fear of the devil's influence was deeply ingrained in the Puritan belief system. It's important to remember that in Samuel Parris' household, the fear started when his own daughter and niece fell ill and admitted to experimenting with occult practices, creating a powder keg situation that was ripe for the allegations of witchcraft to spiral out of control, as influenced by prominent figures like Cotton Mather who vehemently believed in and preached about the existence of witches and devils.

When writing a letter, the tone of the letter is determined by the relationship of the writer and the addressee. There are different types and forms of letter writing.
