Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Read this excerpt from "We Wear the Mask" by Paul Laurence Dunbar and answer

the question that follows: We wear the mask that grins and lies, It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes, — This debt we pay to human guile; With torn and bleeding hearts we smile, And mouth with myriad subtleties. Why should the world be over-wise, In counting all our tears and sighs? Nay, let them only see us, while We wear the mask. We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries To thee from tortured souls arise. We sing, but oh the clay is vile Beneath our feet, and long the mile; But let the world dream otherwise, We wear the mask! What effect does the poet achieve by repeating the phrase, "We wear the mask" throughout the poem? Complete the sentences to answer the question.

In the instances where Dunbar employs the phrase "We wear the mask" (first used to introduce the central concept and then repeated at the conclusion of the next two stanzas), he utilizes it to convey and articulate the shared experiences faced by African-Americans in their daily lives within a predominantly white society. These narratives are characterized by the emotions and thoughts that African-Americans conceal while “wearing the mask.”

Answer:

a) An important distinction between Beard's and Berkin's perspectives regarding the drafting of the U.S. Constitution lies in their narrative angles. Charles Beard argues that the adoption of the Constitution was driven by the economic interests of its framers, whereas Berkin highlights the disputes among the delegates during its creation.

katrin2010 [515]

Answer:

Political debates were promoted.

Explanation:

The philosophical movement known as humanism emerged during the Renaissance period and fostered political discussions across Europe.

The thinkers of humanism focused on human experience in their philosophical discussions, which led them to challenge certain power structures that they viewed as disrespectful to human dignity.

However, these discussions were not particularly transformative, and significant political change would only occur during the Enlightenment.

Which sentence from the passage best supports the conclusion that the author was influenced by Amaterasu?
BigorU [516]

The response to this open-ended question is as follows.

Unfortunately, the options for the question were not included. However, we can conclude the following.

The passage's line that most supports the idea that the author was influenced by Amaterasu is "So when she retreated with her laptop to her room and refused to leave, it created a wave of discontent at the school."

This refers to Amaterasu, the Japanese goddess of the Sun and heaven. According to mythology, there was a time when Amaterasu had a conflict with her brother, which made her so upset that she chose to hide in a mountain cave, plunging the world into darkness, causing chaos and turmoil. She remained hidden for a significant duration. The conflict arose because her brother Susanoo had damaged many rice fields, which angered her.

Therefore, when Lara withdrew with her laptop to her room and isolated herself, it similarly created discontent at school, akin to the referenced story of Amaterasu.

The use of pottery and textiles are related to which characteristic of early civilizations?
mr_godi [501]

Answer:

The response relates to work that is skilled or specialized labor.

Explanation:

Initially, every individual in early societies was a generalist, primarily engaged in agriculture for subsistence. Crafting pottery and textiles was done for personal use or enjoyment. However, the emergence of these crafts gave rise to professional roles within the community. This advancement fostered innovation, increased productivity, enhanced the wealth of specialists, and led to the formation of distinct social classes.
