Answer:

google or safari

Explanation:

Internet Explorer, developed by Microsoft, primarily uses Microsoft's own search engine, Bing. However, users may choose to change the default setting. In 2015, a court case confirmed companies' right to set their own search engine as default.

The Internet Explorer web browser, included by default with Microsoft's Windows operating system, primarily uses the Bing search engine. This preferential use results from both being products of the Microsoft Corporation. However, setting a default search engine is a common practice within the industry and has been upheld in court as fair, as demonstrated in 2015 when antitrust charges against G-oogle for setting itself as the default search engine on mobile devices were dismissed.

Answer:

1: Topic of the discussion is Global Warming.

2: The audience of the discussion is Jorge's class fellows.

3: The Purpose of the discussion is improving student's  presentation skills and knowledge about the topic.

4: Level of formality is semi-formal.

Explanation:

1:

The phrase "Jorge reviewed his notes about global warming before presenting to the class" tells us that the topic of Jorge’s presentation is "Global Warming” (a gradual increase in earth’s overall average temperature because of the increase in greenhouse effect). The students also had to discuss this topic and ask questions from Jorge after his short presentation.

2:

"share their findings with the class" shows that Jorge’s audience is his class. The primary audience and main focus of Jorge’s presentation is his class, however their teacher Mrs. Herbert would also be present as an observer and for final evaluation. So he has to prepare his presentation keeping both (students and teacher) in mind. He has to explain all the concepts and technical terms considering his class level.  

3:

"after his short presentation, the class would ask questions and discuss" this phrase shows that the purpose of the discussion is to share the knowledge and improve students' presentation skills. First they have to do a proper research and include relevant, clear and correct content in right order. They will also get a chance to explain some difficult concepts and topics.  

4: Level of Formality

We choose highly formal style when talking to unknown audience or during job interviews, writing academic essays, presentations or letters to someone whom we don’t know personally.

We select semi-formal style when talking to well-known individuals, like our teachers and elders,  

And we use informal style only with our very close friends with whom we usually spend a lot of time, like class mates, team mates etc.

The topic of the discussion is global warming. The audience of the discussion is Jorge's classmates. The purpose of the discussion is likely educational, aiming to inform the classmates about global warming and encourage engagement through questions and discussion.

Additionally, the discussion may serve to develop critical thinking skills and foster a deeper understanding of the topic among the students.

Final answer:

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow narrates the story of Ichabod Crane and his encounters with the supernatural in a haunted village, focusing on his confrontation with the Headless Horseman leading to his mysterious disappearance.

Explanation:

The main plot of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow focuses on the supernatural stories prevalent in the Sleepy Hollow region, which are heavily influenced by its haunting atmosphere and history. The story principally follows Ichabod Crane, a schoolteacher who becomes entwined with the legend of the Headless Horseman, a fearsome specter said to haunt the area. Crane's encounter with the ghostly horseman and the mysterious, supernatural elements of Sleepy Hollow play a central role, leading to Ichabod's eventual disappearance under eerie circumstances.

Ichabod's fascination with the local tales of ghosts and his fear of the Headless Horseman climax in a precarious night ride, which is believed to result in his own spectral fate. The people of Sleepy Hollow hold various superstitions and reported sightings of ghosts, including not only the Headless Horseman but other spirits such as a woman in white. The eerie, dreamlike quality of the village and its legends cast a spell over its inhabitants and contribute to the mysterious disappearance of Ichabod, leaving the story open to interpretation and the imagination.

Answer:

Because they or their parents had lost them.

Explanation:

The colonists in the thirteen American colonies were especially aware of the feeling of losing religious freedom because the primary motive for many in coming to the New World was to be able to worship freely.

The American colonies were certainly an economic venture, but they were also a safe haven for anyone who did not fit into the societal structure of the England of the 17th Century.

Groups of protestant christians like the Puritans fled to New England where they would have the freedom to practice their religion without being harassed and persecuted.

"The correct option is C) The members of the team scampered to claim their championship trophies. Option C is the most concise and precise statement, as it combines the excitement of the team members with the specific detail that they are claiming championship trophies.

To determine which statement is the most concise and precise, we need to consider the meanings of the words used in each option:

- Scampered implies a quick and excited movement, which suggests a sense of urgency and enthusiasm.

- Walked hurriedly also implies quick movement, but it lacks the connotation of excitement present in scampered.

- Trophies refers to awards won in a competition.

- Championship trophies specifies the type of trophies, indicating that the team won a championship, which is likely a significant achievement.

Now, let's evaluate the options:

A) The members of the team scampered to claim their trophies.

- This option conveys excitement but lacks the specific detail about the type of trophies.

B) The members of the team walked hurriedly to claim their trophies.

- This option lacks both the excitement and the specific detail about the type of trophies.

C) The members of the team scampered to claim their championship trophies.

- This option conveys excitement and includes the specific detail that the trophies are for a championship, making it both concise and precise.

D) The members of the team walked hurriedly to claim their championship trophies.

- This option includes the specific detail about the type of trophies but lacks the excitement present in scampered.

Therefore, option C is the most concise and precise statement, as it combines the excitement of the team members with the specific detail that they are claiming championship trophies."

Explanation:

Excerpt: Napoleon, with the dogs following him, now mounted on to the raised portion of the floor where Major had previously stood to deliver his speech. He announced that from now on the Sunday-morning Meetings would come to an end. They were unnecessary, he said, and wasted time. In future all questions relating to the working of the farm would be settled by a special committee of pigs, presided over by himself. These would meet in private and afterwards communicate their decisions to the others. The animals would still assemble on Sunday mornings to salute the flag, sing "Beasts of England,” and receive their orders for the week; but there would be no more debates.

In spite of the shock that Snowball's expulsion had given them, the animals were dismayed by this announcement. Several of them would have protested if they could have found the right arguments. Even Boxer was vaguely troubled. He set his ears back, shook his forelock several times, and tried hard to marshal his thoughts; but in the end he could not think of anything to say. Some of the pigs themselves, however, were more articulate. Four young porkers in the front row uttered shrill squeals of disapproval, and all four of them sprang to their feet and began speaking at once. But suddenly the dogs sitting round Napoleon let out deep, menacing growls, and the pigs fell silent and sat down again. Then the sheep broke out into a tremendous bleating of "Four legs good, two legs bad!" which went on for nearly a quarter of an hour and put an end to any chance of discussion.

Afterwards Squealer was sent round the farm to explain the new arrangement to the others.

Answer: Napoleon

Explanation:

The animals were not feeling respected because their opinions and ideas weren't heard. Those animals are not considered as intelligent as the pigs and they were incapable for fighting and arguing with others so the four pigs were talking about their ideas and worries.

The excerpt shows an example of conflict between the disapproving pigs and Napoleon. Option A is the correct answer.

In the passage, Napoleon, accompanied by his dogs, announces that the Sunday-morning Meetings will be abolished and that a special committee of pigs, presided over by himself, will make decisions regarding the working of the farm. Option A is the correct answer.

This decision is met with dismay and disapproval from the animals, including some of the pigs themselves. Four young porkers in the front row express their disapproval, but they are silenced by the menacing growls of the dogs that surround Napoleon. The sheep also interrupt any chance of discussion with their repeated chanting of "Four legs good, two legs bad!"

This conflict highlights the power struggle between Napoleon and the other animals on the farm. The disapproving pigs, including the four young porkers, represent those who challenge Napoleon's authority and disagree with his decision-making. However, Napoleon asserts his dominance by using the intimidating presence of his loyal dogs to suppress any opposition. This conflict illustrates the authoritarian nature of Napoleon's rule and the lack of democratic decision-making on the farm.

Answer:

“The Cat That Walked by Himself” by Rudyard Kipling gives us an insight into the character traits of the cat.

Explanation:

The short story is basically an allegory stating about the history of animal domestication. The dog, cow, and the horse were tamed to become familiar domestic versions of themselves over the course of history but cats are different.

Most domesticated animals were bent to the will of humans and cats were kept to get rid of rodents. The cat in the story is ready to trade some of his autonomy for comfort, but is adamant about surrendering his identity and freedom. The story is a filtration of thousands of years of ongoing negotiations between the humans and the cats but they have stood up to their own rules and humans haven’t been able to agree them to their will completely.

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.

Answer:

A. Both conclusions wish other nations of the world well, but Chamberlain advocates imperialism, while Nehru advocates freedom for India.

Explanation:

Joseph Chamberlain's (8 July 1836 – 2 July 1914) concluding phrase "future union with the British races throughout the world", the title of the text "I Believe in a British Empire" and the start of the text all show that Chamberlain is advocating British imperialism.

Jawaharlal Nehru's (14 November 1889 – 27 May 1964) "the eternal and the ever-new, we pay our reverent homage and we bind ourselves afresh to her service" and "pledge ourselves to cooperate with them in furthering peace, freedom and democracy." show that he is advocating freedom for India as well as democracy and peace.

Option B is not correct as Chamberlain says nothing about religion, is against separate England. And Nehru clearly demands freedom for India.

Option C is not correct Because Nehru says nothing directly about British people.

Option D is not correct because Chamberlain's text says nothing about peace, and Nehru's text nothing about competition.

Final answer:

The best comparison of the passages suggests that both authors wish well for other nations but diverge in ideology; Chamberlain advocates for a powerful, independent British Empire, while Nehru promotes an independent India collaborating with the global community for wider peace and democracy. So, the correct option is (a).

Explanation:

The statement that best compares and contrasts the conclusions of the passages from "I Believe in a British Empire" by Joseph Chamberlain and "A Tryst with Destiny" by Jawaharlal Nehru is: Both conclusions wish other nations of the world well, but Chamberlain advocates imperialism, while Nehru advocates freedom for India.

Chamberlain's excerpt reflects an imperialistic view where the British Empire should remain powerful and self-sustaining, even if isolated from other nations, to preserve its prosperity and influence. Contrastingly, Nehru's excerpt celebrates India's impending independence, emphasizes unity regardless of religion, and advocates for cooperation with other nations to promote peace, freedom, and democracy. Where Chamberlain sees other countries as rivals and competition, Nehru sees them as potential partners.

The historical context helps to understand these differing perspectives, with Nehru's India on the cusp of independence after a long struggle against colonial rule, as opposed to Chamberlain's era of British dominance and colonization.
