What was one of the topics that Robert Burns explored intimately?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ev’n thena wish (I mind its power)

A wish, that to my latest hour

Shall strongly heave my breast;

That I for poor auld Scotland’s sake

Some useful plan, or book could make,

Or sing a sang at least.

Explanation:

Robert Burns was born in 1759, in Alloway, Scotland, to William and Agnes Brown Burnes. Like his father, Burns was a tenant farmer. However, toward the end of his life he became an excise collector in Dumfries, where he died in 1796; throughout his life he was also a practicing poet. His poetry recorded and celebrated aspects of farm life, regional experience, traditional culture, class culture and distinctions, and religious practice. He is considered the national poet of Scotland. Although he did not set out to achieve that designation, he clearly and repeatedly expressed his wish to be called a Scots bard, to extol his native land in poetry and song, as he does in “The Answer”:

Ev’n thena wish (I mind its power)

A wish, that to my latest hour

Shall strongly heave my breast;

That I for poor auld Scotland’s sake

Some useful plan, or book could make,

Or sing a sang at least.

And perhaps he had an intimation that his “wish” had some basis in reality when he described his Edinburgh reception in a letter of December 7, 1786 to his friend Gavin Hamilton: “I am in a fair way of becoming as eminent as Thomas a Kempis or

89. What do you think a history book 200 years from now will say about the current generation and its innovations?​

Answers

Answer:

Personally, I think that 200 years from now the current generation will be remembered in the history books in a dual way, both on a positive and a negative side.

Thus, on the positive side, I consider that the present generation is the one that has given the kickoff towards total technological development: I believe that within a few years, human technology will have already reached its maximum point of development, with which this generation It will be remembered in the future as the one that led humanity to its maximum technological development.

Now, the negative part of our generation is its interpersonal face: gradually, people are abandoning social habits and becoming more and more individualistic, which in the future will be analyzed by various social scientists.

The Head Teacher,

              Dear Sir,

                           LETTER FOR A CHANGE OF PROGRAMME

I humbly write out of a heart that desires quality. Having gone through the senior high school where I recently got an admission, I discovered that there are somethings I will like to share with you.

First, the department lacks adequate laboratory equipment. They seem to be glued to the use of "ancient" laboratory. Their available equipment makes practical works boring and uninteresting.

Also, the department's teaching standard is very poor. Some of the teachers are unable to present their lessons properly for students to grasp.

These are some of the reasons why I solicit for a change of program. I believe another program will be better off for me.

                                       

                                                                                           Yours faithfully,

SOMEONE PLEASE ACTUALLY HELP ME. I have to write an essay on how self-awareness builds grit. I’d appreciate the help because I need it badly. Please help me write an essay on this topic.

Answers

Answer:

From the ancient Greek aphorism "know yourself" to Western psychology, the topic of self-awareness has always been an intriguing topic of research by philosophers and psychologists.

Explanation:

According to Daniel Goleman, self-awareness is the cornerstone of emotional intelligence. Managing our emotions and thoughts in a moment is a key skill to better understand ourselves, to build grit, to be at peace with who we are, and to proactively manage our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Add that people who have a developed self-awareness tend to act consciously rather than react passively, to have good psychological health and a positive outlook on life. They also have a greater depth of life experience and are more likely to be more compassionate to themselves and to others.

We are no longer self-aware as most of the time we are simply “not in the here and now” to observe ourselves. In other words, we are not there to pay attention to what is happening in or around us.
