1. What evidence supports that SOPA was not a reasonable way of combating Internet piracy?
The fact that it could perfectly be used to censor free speech by using copyright provisions as a pretext. Such censorship can be political or commercial or both. Indeed, it has already happened, as in the case of Oliver Hotham, a British student journalist who in 2013 interviewed an anti-gay group and posted the video of the interview on his blog. The antigay group did not like the negative public reaction to such exposure and used American copyright laws to demand that Hotham removes the video from his webpage because they “owned their answers to the interview” and Hotham had to right to post them without their permission. SOPA included and expanded such over-encompassing copyright restrictions and would have facilitated such abuses. They threatened Hotham with litigation unless he complied.

Has the conflict between civilization and savagery (good and evill been resolved? Why or why not?
It hasn't and probably it never will.
It is also philosophically dangerous to equate civilization to good and savagery to evil. After all, we as so called civilized men would be inherently biased in assuming that we represent the positive side of this equation while nature's savages, or that which is the antitheses of what's civilized, represents or equates evil.
Binary comparisons often lack the subtlety to portray the complexity of life and its myriad shades of gray.
At best we could say that evidence suggests civilization seems a more desirable option than savagery.

Which sentence is correct?
A. She tried to paint the building; however, it rained.
B. She tried to paint the building, however, it rained.
C. She tried to paint the building; however it rained.
D. None of the above
Answer:
Sentence A is the correct option.
Explanation:
Sentence A is correct because when you have a conjunctive adverb linking two independent clauses, you should use a semicolon. In this case, both of these independent clauses have been connected by the conjunctive adverb however (see 1 and 2). What is more, you should use a comma after the conjuctive adverb because it appears in initial position in the second clause.
1) She tried to pain the building; (independent clause I)
2) However, it rained (independent clause II)

Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly:—’Tis dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to set a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed, if so celestial an article as Freedom should not be highly rated.
In this excerpt from The Crisis, how did Paine use charged language to contrast American independence with life under British rule?
He pointed out that freedom has its price.
He warned that things purchased cheaply have no value.
He compared British rule with hell and freedom with heaven.
He stated that conflict is hard and triumph is glorious.
Description
Thomas Paine used charged language in 'The Crisis' to contrast American independence with British tyranny, comparing fighting for freedom to overcoming hell, and equating the value of freedom to that of a heavenly good.
In the excerpt from The Crisis, Thomas Paine used charged language to evoke strong emotional responses and to contrast the struggle for American independence with the oppressive British rule. He highlighted the cost of freedom by comparing tyranny to hell and suggesting that true freedom, akin to a heavenly good, cannot come cheaply. Paine emphasizes that the effort to overcome tyranny will make eventual victory all the more glorious, contrasting it with the concept that things easily obtained are undervalued. This dichotomy also strikes at the heart of the colonists' situation, facing a British government that intends on binding them 'in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER', which Paine likens to slavery—an unlimited power that should belong to God alone.

When spring arrives, the counselors always hold sessions to tell students about the new classes available. After the presentation, William and his friends chattered anxiously about what classes they would request. So many of William’s friends were taking advanced math. Although William was hesitant to take advanced math. He signed up for the class anyway. Which of these is a sentence fragment? A) He signed up for the class anyway. B) Although William was hesitant to take advance math. C) so many of William’s friends were taking advanced math. D) William and his friends chattered anxiously about what classes they would request

So B is your answer.
Regina found her feet and headed to the house. When she entered, her mother was opening windows and letting in fresh air.

Read the paragraph about William Butler Yeats’ beliefs and answer the question.
According to Yeats, a belief in a universal consciousness, called "Spiritus Mundi, " connects all intelligent people through their perception of common truths.
To what event does "Spiritus Mundi" refer in the second stanza of his poem, "The Second Coming"?
A)an expectation of a certain catastrophe signaling victory over evil
B)a common fear of an approaching annihilation by nuclear force
C)the inevitable reality of mass destruction by a common enemy
D)a dismal prospect of total devastation of the natural environment
The correct option is option D. A dismal prospect of total devastation of the natural environment.
When the speaker talks about:
"When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds. "
Is in fact referring to the birds as a symbol for Nature in its sharpest, cleanest sense. Humankind is destroying the Nature and has to face the consequences, in today's world that translates in the effects of climate change and global warming the humans provoked, bringing deserts where once were rivers and falls.
"Spiritus Mundi" in the second stanza of Yeats' "The Second Coming" refers to a collective universal consciousness that reveals a beastly figure in the desert, signaling an ominous new era. The correct option is A.
"Spiritus Mundi" refers to a collective storehouse of universal memories and images that every person can subconsciously draw upon in W.B. Yeats' poem The Second Coming. In the second stanza of the poem, when Yeats mentions "a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi," he is envisioning a terrifying vision springing from this collective unconscious. The reference corresponds to the revelation of an approaching event: the arrival of a beastly figure in the desert, which is in startling contrast to the Christian expectation of Christ's return, suggesting an imminent and troubling era.
Therefore, the correct answer to the student's question is A) an expectation of a certain catastrophe signaling victory over evil. This is implied in the poem through the imagery of a 'rough beast' slouching towards Bethlehem to be born, representing a new era that could potentially be full of chaos and destruction.
It's important to let the ____ guide the manner in which you read a poem.

explain how mistaken identity becomes even more complicated in act III scene IV of twelfth night (include and example)
Situation:
Antonio thought he was speaking with Sebastian. However, he was not. He was in fact speaking with Viola, who could disguise as a man and because Viola and Sebastian are siblings, they have a strong physical likeness. Thus, Antonio mistook Viola for Sebastian.
Example:
This is a common practice among twins all over the world. They can distinguish their physical differences while others cannot. You surely have heard about siblings being confused with each other by other people, even when their physical likeness is not very obvious like the one in twins.
In act III, scene IV, mistaken identity becomes more complicated when Sir Andrew Aguecheek challenges Cesario (who is really Viola) to a duel. Viola is ready to admit that she is too weak to fight but eventually has to face Sir Andrew. This plot twist highlights how Viola’s decision to dress as a man has some potentially dangerous consequences. However, Antonio suddenly appears on the scene and, thinking that Viola is Sebastian, comes to the aid of the person he thinks is his friend.
No one is able to understand how Cesario happens to be Antonio’s friend. When police officers intervene and recognize Antonio as a wanted man in Illyria, Antonio gives his reasons for fighting. He explains that that he is trying to save the young man he once saved from drowning:
ANTONIO: Let me speak a little. This youth that you see here
I snatched one half out of the jaws of death,
Relieved him with such sanctity of love,—
And to his image, which methought did promise
Most venerable worth, did I devotion.
Antonio then asks Cesario/Viola to give him back his purse, which he lent earlier to Sebastian. She has no idea what he is talking about, of course, but Antonio, still mistaking Viola as Sebastian, thinks Sebastian is betraying him.
The characters in the scene are befuddled and unable to comprehend these happenings. But Viola understands that this case of mistaken identity hints at the fact that her brother Sebastian is alive and has been in the company of Antonio in Illyria:
VIOLA: Methinks his words do from such passion fly
That he believes himself; so do not I.
Prove true, imagination; O prove true,
That I, dear brother, be now ta'en for you!

And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor. Why does Thomas Jefferson choose to end The Declaration of Independence with these words?
Final answer:
Jefferson concluded the Declaration of Independence with a solemn pledge to emphasize the colonists' united commitment and sacrifice for liberty, influenced by Enlightenment principles and the belief in inalienable rights.
Explanation:
Thomas Jefferson chose to end the Declaration of Independence with the declaration "With firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor" to underscore the seriousness and determination of the American colonists in their commitment to independence from Great Britain. This pledge highlighted the collective resolve of the signatories, indicating that they were not only committing to the philosophical principles outlined in the document but also staking their very existence on the success of their cause. It served as a powerful finale that bound the signatories together in a shared dedication to the idea of liberty and the establishment of a nation founded on the recognition of inalienable rights and a government's duty to secure these rights, drawing from the Enlightenment ideas and principles shaped by thinkers like John Locke.You have read eight short stories in Unit 4 “Story Time”.
