Please help. Memories of a Memory
Have you ever witnessed something amazing, shocking or surprising and found when describing the event that your story seems to change the more you tell it? Have you ever experienced a time when you couldn't really describe something you saw in a way that others could understand? If so, you may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials. New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things.
First, memory is vague. Imagine your room at home or a classroom you see every day. Most likely, you could describe the room very generally. You could name the color of the walls, the floors, the decorations. But the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. Memory tends to save a blurry image of what we have seen rather than specific details. So when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall when faced with several tall people. There are lots of different kinds of "tall."
Second, memory uses general knowledge to fill in gaps. Our brains reconstruct events and scenes when we remember something. To do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. For example, one day at a library you go to quite frequently, you witness an argument between a library patron and one of the librarians. Later, when telling a friend about the event, your brain may remember a familiar librarian behind the desk rather than the actual participant simply because it is recreating a familiar scene. In effect, your brain is combining memories to help you tell the story.
Third, your memory changes over time. It also changes the more you retell the story. Documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. Research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is. You may have noticed this yourself. The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add, or what your brain wants to add, to the account. You may also notice that you drop certain details from previous tellings of the story.
With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. Did you really break your mother's favorite vase when you were three? Was that really your father throwing rocks into the river with you when you were seven? The human brain may be quite remarkable indeed. When it comes to memory, however, we may want to start carrying video cameras if we want to record the true picture.

Would you rather live in ignorance and be "happy" in this town or know the truth and live the real world? What would the ramifications be for both sides? Explain (it’s due april 21)
Answer:
Im just gonna give a short paragraph you can go off of:
In this world there are many people who live in complete ignorance to the harsh truths of this world. They get to live happier, not knowing the real struggles people go through. While they get to spend their time and energy fighting for "their rights to not wear a mask" people are dying, staving, and fighting for their lives because of the extra stress we've been put under due to the pandemic. Though one might argue every single person is ignorant about some issues, the difference is some people actually want to change that. yes, being ignorant about the struggles black and brown people have to face makes ignoring the news a little easier. Not knowing about what lgbtq+ people have to go through makes going to church easier. But it only adds to these people suffering. Not doing anything, ignoring them, pretending its not happening, is just as bad as going out and being the reason its a problem.

Answer:
Several thousand years ago, Chinese people needed an efficient currency that could be used for trade in all parts of their huge empire.

How do the characters, conflicts, and events of Act 1 represent McCarthyism and the Red Scare of the 1950s? Explain all of the similarities (and any differences) that you notice
Hello. You did not enter the text or the play to which this question refers, which makes it impossible to answer. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
Macarthism was a historic period in the United States marked by a "witch hunt" system stimulated by the Red Scare that happened in 1950 and that was strongly associated with extreme fear of any communist element or threat that could be established in the country. Macarthism was established as a period marked by repression, political persecution, defamation, subversion and accusations without evidence, where people were accused and violently reprimanded for being associated with communism.
Although the play "The Crucible" was not mentioned in your question, we can associate it with this historical period, since like the Macarthism, the play presents a period of hysteria where people are unjustly accused and severely punished for something that provoked a deep fear in society, which was witchcraft. The difference is that Macarthismo promoted political persecution, while in "The Crucible", we are introduced to religious persecution.

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms — to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.”-Vikter E. Frankl
What does this quote mean? Do you agree or disagree why or why not? How does someone's attitude effect a situation? What do think other human freedoms are?
Write it in at least 3-5 sentences
Answer:
Frankl was a survivor of the Jewish concentration camps who spent years held in them and lost his family to them too. It was through that impossibly hard experience that he developed his philosophy. The book itself recounts his time in the camps and then lays out his philosophy in practice. He worked as a psychiatrist and put his theory to use there. Frankl discovered the last of the human freedoms: the ability to decide what those painful, inhumane experiences would mean to him. ... He also imagined what it would feel like should he ever get out to share his experiences and lessons with the larger world.
There is no "true" attitude, every attitude is a lie because it is entirely subjective. Your attitude is always a choice. If someone you love dies, you might say that you can't choose to be sad, but you can. Every time you are sad you choose how sad you want to be, and if you are really objective you might even realize it does you no good to be more sad, so you stop yourself. You should be sad, but you should choose to be sad in a way that benefits you. You should also choose to be happy. Then you start to realize you have been abiding by a subjective view of the world this entire time, you just weren't really aware of it, or that it was too emotionally difficult to choose to feel anything other than what you felt was natural or expected. Eventually, you will realize that things and events don't necessitate any one kind of a reaction, and honestly, nothing requires a reaction at all. If you have to react, wouldn't you rather be an active participant in how you feel about it? Otherwise, you are just a slave to your circumstances.
Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.

Explanation:
Toward the end of Part I of Oedipus the King, Oedipus and Jocasta meet and have a long dialogue. Beginning in line 665, Jocasta explains why she does not believe prophets. When Oedipus next speaks, in line 684, he says, "A shadow crossed my mind as you spoke. And the / shadow chilled my mind." Reread lines 665–779, and explain why Jocasta's story causes Oedipus to say these words.
Answer and Explanation:
Jocasta explains that she does not trust the words of the prophets, because in the past, a prophet told her ex-husband that his son would kill him. In fear, her ex-husband drove the child out of the city and was killed years later, at a crossroads by a band of thieves, just before Oedipus arrived. This makes Oedipus very afraid, as it confirms the prophecy he received.
That's because Oedipus knows that he is not a legitimate child of the parents who raised him and that he was found as a baby. In addition, he killed a man near the crossroads to which Jocasta's ex-husband was killed. In that case, it is likely that he killed her husband and then married her, which proves the terrible prophecy he received that said he would kill his own father and lie with his own mother.

I have found this question online. We are supposed to fill in the blanks with either the simple past tense or the past progressive tense.
Answer:
Last year I provided first aid for the first time when I was in Reading to visit a friend of mine. We were sitting in John's garden when we suddenly heard a squeal of tires and a bang. Then there was a lot of shouts and cries. I immediately knew what was going on. I rushed through the garden gate, and when I reached the car I saw two injured persons: The driver was sitting behind the steering wheel, and blood was running from a wound to his head; his wife was lying on the ground beside the open left-hand door. Some neighbors or passers-by helped her, so I opened the other door and carefully dragged him out of the car and put him in a side position. I was talking to him and trying to stop the blood with a paper hanky when the ambulance arrived.
Explanation:
The past progressive tense is used to emphasize an action that lasted for some time in the past. It uses the verb "to be" in its past form (was/were) and a main verb with -ing. The example below helps illustrate it:
- I was cooking lunch when my mother arrived.
The simple past tense is used to express action that happened at a specific time in the past. It is commonly used with expressions of time, such as "yesterday", "last year", "two days ago", etc.
Verbs in the simple past can be regular or irregular. To regular verbs, we simply add -d, -ed, or -ied to form the past. For example: work - worked; arrive - arrived; dance - danced; study - studied.
When it comes to irregular verbs, we must memorize the past form of each. For example: do - did; eat - ate; make - made; swim - swam; speak - spoke.
The sentence below is in the simple past:
- I tried to help the man, but he said he was alright.

It is a fault that will RIGHT itself. The underlined word is a/an :
A. Verb
B.Adjective
C. noun D. adverb
It is a fault that will right itself. The underlined word is an adverb. Hence option D is correct.
What is adverb?Adverbs are classified as words that can describe or alter verbs, adjectives, other adverbs, or the entirety of a sentence. Adverbs can be used to indicate mode, intensity, location, and time. Because they indicate the degree to which an adjective or another adverb applies, they are known as degree adverbs.
Word group (noun) fault (adjective) (adjective) faultless defective (verb) (verb) flawlessly perfect (adjective). A fault is a crack or region of cracks that separates two rock blocks. The blocks might move in relation to one another due to flaws. This movement may happen suddenly, like an earthquake, or it may happen gradually, like creep.
Thus, it is a fault that will right itself. The underlined word is an adverb. Hence option D is correct.

How would you describe the tone the author's words create on page 93, panel 8, when Mala says: "Wait! Put everything back, exactly like it was, or I'll never hear the end of it!" What does this reveal about Mala's character? What evidence makes you think so
Answer:
Her tone is worried maybe rushed. Evidence is "or I'll never hear the end of this" like she is worried about what will happen if someone finds out.
Explanation:
Her voice is concerned or hurried. Evidence implies that she is concerned about what may happen if someone found out when she says, "otherwise I'll never hear the end of this."
What is tone?The author's use of word and information conveys tone. One must pay attention to where these language and elements are employed throughout the writing in order to ascertain the writer's character. A literary production's tone conveys the author's perspective on or emotions toward its readers and topic.
Mala's remark conveys a sense of unease and dread regarding Vladek's possible reaction. Mala is ordering Art to put the items back so rather than expressing a request, indicating implies that she is stressed. This will suggest the way the mala was living her life and what was going on.
