Theme constitutional monarchy
Discuss the pros and cons of having a monarchy in contract to being a republic?
Give me at least 4 pros and cons!
(I will give the "brainliest" to the best answer!)
Answer: Brainliest?
Advantages of a constitutional monarchy:
Stability. The head of state is appointed for a very long perdiod of time, usually until she/he abdicates or die. This gives the country more stability in comparison with republics where the head of state changes every few years.
Education. In a monarchy, the future head of state is known from birth, therefore she/he is raised and educated accordingly. Monarchs are usually well prepared for their role and enjoy a priviledged multidisciplinary education.
Neutrality. The head of state is not a politician, therefore is not tied to any particular party. She/he can ensure neutrality and balance while in power.
No election cost. In many countries, the campaign to elect the head of state can be very expensive. In monarchy, succession has little costs.
Less corruption? Advocates of constitutional monarchy claim that knowing you will serve for a life term reduces the risk of corruption, while an elected politician may feel the urge to take advantage of his position knowing it will not last. Presidents may have shorter term goals and incentives, while the monarch may care more about the long term. After all they want their children to inherit the throne and don't want them to have to face a complicated future.
Disadvantages of a constitutional monarchy:
Lack of democracy. The head of state is not elected and inherits the position. The citizen have little to say about who will reign, although in most constitutional monarchies the monarchs needs the approval of the Parliament, and therefore, indirectly of the people this institution represents.
Not every monarch is competent. The head of state may have been prepared to reign, but this does not guarantee that this particular person is suitable and competent for the position. HIstory is full of incompetent, arrongant, tyrannic or careless monarchs.
Monarchs are people; therefore have personal beliefs and political preferences, often they are quite conservative. Their views and beliefs may be at odds with those of the majority in their country.
Royal families often have a very expensive lifestyle. In addition to the king or queen, other members of the royalty also receive public salaries and perks. Moreover simply organizing their trips and security is very costly. Although we should keep in mind that presidents and prime ministers in republics are also costly, sometimes more than monarchs.
More corruption? Sometimes justice is permissive with the abuses of royal families. They are somehow protected because it is not in the interest of the country to see their figures delegitimized. However, this also creates an incentive for members of the royal families to abuse sometimes their status.
Explanation:
If an author refers to "a bird on the wing" when speaking of the freedom a mountain man felt, the author would be promoting...
O symbolism
O metonymy
O paradox
O oxymoron
O understatement
Answer:
symbolism
Explanation:
Birds who fly openly and freely are often the symbol of freedom. This is because birds seem to have no limits, they can go wherever they want and fly where they wish, on the wind they seem free and their wings seem to like to tool to reach their freedom.
The symbol is the element that stands for some other concept or idea. Those are usually signs or marks, sometimes graphic, sometimes, verbal, that represent other meanings. They are created by some specific connection and that connection is known to a certain group of people. That group can read and understand the meaning behind the symbol without further explanation. Symbolism is the usage of the symbol. It is the movement and element of the art in which usage of the symbol is incorporated in the art piece.
Read the excerpt from The Diary of Anne Frank.
"Mr. Frank. Now. About the noise. While the men are in the building below, we must have complete quiet. Every sound can be heard down there, not only in the workrooms, but in the offices, too. The men come at about eight-thirty, and leave at about five-thirty. So, to be perfectly safe, from eight in the morning until six in the evening we must move only when it is necessary, and then in stockinged feet. We must not speak above a whisper. We must not run any water. We cannot use the sink, or even, forgive me, the w.c. The pipes go down through the workrooms. It would be heard. No trash . . . (Mr. Frank stops abruptly as he hears the sound of marching feet from the street below. Everyone is motionless, paralyzed with fear. Mr. Frank goes quietly into the room on the right to look down out of the window. Anne runs after him, peering out with him. The tramping feet pass without stopping. The tension is relieved. Mr. Frank, followed by Anne, returns to the main room and resumes his instructions to the group) . . . No trash must ever be thrown out which might reveal that someone is living up here . . . not even a potato paring. We must burn everything in the stove at night. This is the way we must live until it is over, if we are to survive."
What does this dialogue reveal about how Mr. Frank views his role in the attic?
A.)He considers himself to be the only person who is allowed to make rules.
B.)He sees himself as a leader who is responsible for keeping the others safe.
C.)He understands that people look to him for leadership, but it makes him uncomfortable.
D.)He believes that he must give each person an equal say in creating the rules.
Answer:
I think the answer would be C
Explanation:
Because in the excerpt it says that he resumes his instructions to the group, which is showing his leadership and role in the attic. Hope this helps!!!

Answer:
FERN HILL
Fern Hill (1945) is a poem by Dylan Thomas, first published in the October, 1945, Horizon magazine, with its first book publication as the last poem in Deaths and Entrances. The poem starts as a straightforward evocation of his childhood visits to his Aunt Annie's farm:
Now as I was young and easy under the apple boughs
About the lilting house and happy as the grass was green,
In the middle section, the idyllic scene is expanded upon, reinforced by the lilting rhythm of the poem, the dreamlike, pastoral metaphors and allusion to Eden. By the end, the poet's older voice has taken over, mourning his lost youth with echoes of the opening:
Oh as I was young and easy in the mercy of his means,
Time held me green and dying
Though I sang in my chains like the sea.[1]
The poem uses internal half rhyme and full rhyme as well as end rhyme. Thomas was very conscious of the impact of spoken or intoned verse and explored the potentialities of sound and rhythm, in a manner reminiscent of Gerard Manley Hopkins. He always denied having conscious knowledge of Welsh, but "his lines chime with internal consonantal correspondence, or cynghanedd, a prescribed feature of Welsh versification".[2]
The house Fernhill is just outside Llangain in Carmarthenshire. Thomas had extended stays here in the 1920s with his aunt Annie and her husband, Jim Jones. His holidays here have been recalled in interviews with his schoolboy friends, and both the house and the Thomas family network in the area are detailed in the same book

Some people and experiences shape us for the better. Punishment and kindness are both effective at changing people at different times. Acts of kindness can sometimes show people that they can be loved and cared for despite their flaws and vices.
How kindness can change a person's life?Kindness has been shown to improve mood and increase self-esteem, empathy, and compassion. It has the ability to lower blood pressure and cortisol, a stress hormone, both of which have a direct impact on stress levels. People who give of themselves in a balanced way live longer and are healthier.
Punishment and kindness are more effective at motivating people to change. Acts of kindness can sometimes imply to people that they can be loved and cared for despite their flaws and vices. This creates a tendency for them to return the kindness and thus change their bad behavior patterns.

Write the definition of ‘mythology’ in your own words.
Explanation:
The collection of myths of a people, concerning the origin of the people, history, deities, ancestors and heroes is mythology.
Hope it will help :)
Answer:
Explanation:
Mythology (from the Greek mythos for story-of-the-people, and logos for word or speech, so the spoken story of a people) is the study and interpretation of often sacred tales or fables of a culture known as myths or the collection of such stories which deal with various aspects of the human condition: good and evil
I remember well the remark made to me once by one of my teachers—and a very good teacher, too, who nevertheless did not see what her own observation ought to have suggested. “School-children,” she said, “regard teachers as their natural enemies.” The thought which it would have been logical to suppose would have followed this observation is, that if children in general are possessed of that notion, it is because there is a great deal in the teacher’s treatment of them which runs counter to the child’s nature: that possibly this is so, not because of natural cussedness on the part of the child, but because of inapplicability of the knowledge taught, or the manner of teaching it, or both, to the mental and physical needs of the child. I am quite sure no such thought entered my teacher’s mind,—at least regarding the system of knowledge to be imposed; being a sensible woman, she perhaps occasionally admitted to herself that she might make mistakes in applying the rules, but that the body of knowledge to be taught was indispensable, and must somehow be injected into children’s heads, under threat of punishment, if necessary, I am sure she never questioned. It did not occur to her any more than to most teachers, that the first business of an educator should be to find out what are the needs, aptitudes, and tendencies of children, before he or she attempts to outline a body of knowledge to be taught, or rules for teaching it. It does not occur to them that the child’s question, “What do I have to learn that for?” is a perfectly legitimate question; and if the teacher cannot answer it to the child’s satisfaction, something is wrong either with the thing taught, or with the teaching; either the thing taught is out of rapport with the child’s age, or his natural tendencies, or his condition of development; or the method by which it is taught repels him, disgusts him, or at best fails to interest him.
When a child says, “I don’t see why I have to know that; I can’t remember it anyway,” he is voicing a very reasonable protest. Of course, there are plenty of instances of wilful shirking, where a little effort can overcome the slackness of memory; but every teacher who is honest enough to reckon with himself knows he cannot give a sensible reason why things are to be taught which have so little to do with the child’s life that to-morrow, or the day after examination, they will be forgotten; things which he himself could not remember were he not repeating them year in and year out, as a matter of his trade. And every teacher who has thought at all for himself about the essential nature of the young humanity he is dealing with, knows that six hours of daily herding and in-penning of young, active bodies and limbs, accompanied by the additional injunction that no feet are to be shuffled, no whispers exchanged, and no paper wads thrown, is a frightful violation of all the laws of young life. Any gardener who should attempt to raise healthy, beautiful, and fruitful plants by outraging all those plants’ instinctive wants and searchings, would meet as his reward—sickly plants, ugly plants, sterile plants, dead plants. He will not do it; he will watch very carefully to see whether they like much sunlight, or considerable shade, whether they thrive on much water or get drowned in it, whether they like sandy soil, or fat mucky soil; the plant itself will indicate to him when he is doing the right thing. And every gardener will watch for indications with great anxiety. If he finds the plant revolts against his experiments, he will desist at once, and try something else; if he finds it thrives, he will emphasize the particular treatment so long as it seems beneficial. But what he will surely not do, will be to prepare a certain area of ground all just alike, with equal chances of sun and amount of moisture in every part, and then plant everything together without discrimination,—mighty close together!—saying beforehand, “If plants don’t want to thrive on this, they ought to want to; and if they are stubborn about it, they must be made to.”
In the second sentence of the second paragraph, the repetition of the word “things” primarily serves to
qualify a claim by acknowledging an exception to it
A
portray contrasting viewpoints as equally legitimate
B
clarify an argument by restating it in simpler terms
C
illustrate a generalization with a particular case
D
strengthen an assertion by broadening its implications
E
Answer:
Its E Strengthen an assertion by broadening its implications 100%
Explanation:
In these lines, the author uses repetition to organize two assertions about the “things” that children are taught. She first asserts that these “things” have so little relevance that children will quickly forget them. She then broadens this assertion to apply to teachers, stating that they too would forget these “things” if they were not constantly repeating them on the job. By arranging these ideas in this way, the author strengthens her initial assertion about the reason that children have trouble remembering and supports her overarching claim that it is “reasonable” for children to protest that they cannot retain what they are expected to learn.

Review the first paragraph of the article, "To Tell the Truth." At this point in the history of television, the prevalence of reality TV is hard to miss. Reality TV is the portrayal of real people living through what are, for them, ordinary situations. You've probably seen at least one example of the genre. You may have squirmed through a few scenes of Deadliest Catch, a deep dive into the dangerous lives of Alaskan king crab fishermen. Or perhaps you admired the haul of antiques and treasures recently gathered by the much-loved American Pickers. Maybe you were drawn into the drama of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, or perhaps you decided to follow the vastly different lives of Matt and Amy Roloff in Little People, Big World.The fact that these shows air during prime time—between 8 pm and 11 pm—and the variety of situations they tackle suggests just how obsessed viewers have become with reality TV. While the genre may seem like a recent phenomenon, it's actually been around a long time. In this paragraph, what is the author trying to demonstrate by using the words squirmed, admired, drawn, and loved?
how people's emotional responses to reality TV can range
how the limitless choices of reality TV can overwhelm and confuse audiences
how reality TV attempts to make its audience uncomfortable for ratings
how the characters in reality TV show different emotions

8. Don't throw rubbish on the street, Pete. We must protect our environment.
Explanation:
We use the imperative form to give orders, instructions, or to warn someone about something. To write sentences in the imperative form, we have to write the verb in the infinitive, and if it is a negative command, we have to write the do not or don't and the verb in the infinitive.
For example, if we want to give an instruction, we can say -Turn on the right- the verb is in the infinite form, the subject may or may not be present since the person can deduce to whom we are saying the command. An example of a sentence where we use the negative form can be - Don't run in the hallways- In this case, we use the auxiliary verb do and the auxiliary not followed by the verb.
