When Mr. Culpepper, the assistant principal and chief executioner, came in, he did it with a flourish, breathing through his nose and looking like a cross between a really mad Santa Claus and a swishy dragon.

"Well, what are we to say this morning?” he asked, looking over his rimless glasses. "Or have the grades said enough? Hmmm?”

No response.

"We have noted two trends among this small group of miscreants,” Mr. Culpepper went on. "The first is that none of you are living up to your potential. And yes, we do know your individual abilities because you have all tested very well on the IQ tests. What I strongly suspect is that you just don’t care enough about education or about Da Vinci Academy for the Gifted and Talented. I’m wondering if you are really Da Vinci material.”

What conclusion can be made about Mr. Culpepper based on the character’s dialogue?

Mr. Culpepper has disdain for his students and does not respect them.
Mr. Culpepper is trying to create a supportive environment for his students.
Mr. Culpepper does not know his students and does not try to know them.
Mr. Culpepper wants to help his students but does not know how to do it.

Explanation:

The Aztec ball game, Ullamaliztli, had a lot of ritual significance. The game represented the battle between day and night, and so was also related to the human blood sacrifices that were intended to keep the sun moving in the sky.

In Tenochtitlan, the ball court was at the foot of the blood stained stairs of the temple, and the ball game itself would often be a scene of sacrifice. It is believed that the losing coach, or even the whole team, might be sacrificed. Some historians have disputed this - because it was an honour to be sacrificed, it may have been the winning team that lost their lives.

Would you play the Aztec ball game knowing what you now know? Why or why not?

Answers

I would not play the Aztec game knowing what I know because I think it is a very violent and harsh game. I also think it would be very difficult to win having all that pressure on you.

the hack driver summary...plzz​

Answers

Answer:

The Hack Driver- Summary

The narrator of the story explains that after completing his graduation he started working with a famous law firm in the city. He was working as an assistant clerk there. He was not very happy with his job of serving summons because sometimes he had to face harsh situations while serving them. One day, he got the task of serving summons to Oliver Lutkins who was a key witness in some case. He lived in a small town named New Mullion.

The narrator was very excited to visit a small and beautiful town but his excitement ended by the dull appearance of the town. He saw a hack driver standing at the platform who was very cheerful and nice. He went up to him and enquired about Oliver Lutkins as he was new to the town and wanted to find him. The driver told him that Oliver was a nasty man who owed debt to many people. He also cunningly extracted information from the lawyer that he needed Lutkins for some court case.

A deal was cracked between both- he decided to hire Bill’s hack and go on a search for Lutkins. Bill somehow traps the lawyer in his story and they visit different places in search of Lutkins. He always asks the lawyer stay behind. They go to Fritz’s to catch Lutkins while playing poker. But he tells them that he has gone to Gustaff for a shave. At Gustaff’s they weren’t able to meet him and were told that someone saw him at the pool room. Here also somebody said that he left the poolroom after buying cigarettes.

Bill described Lutkins as a cunning man and guessed that he must have gone to gray’s for a shave. In the afternoon, Bill offered him to buy lunch from his wife as it would be less costly than at the restaurant. They had lunch at wade’s hill which was a very beautiful place. By that time the clerk was totally impressed by Bill’s nice and cheery nature. He had even started comparing village people to city people. Later on, they went to search for Lutkins at his mother’s house on the basis of information derived from one of his friends.

There the lady was horrible and they hurriedly left the place as she was about to attack them with a hot iron rod. At last, the lawyer had to leave without serving summons to Lutkins. Next day he was scolded badly by his chief and was again sent to New Mullion with a companion who knew Lutkins. Upon reaching the station, the clerk happily pointed out that Bill was such a helpful person to him search Lutkins.

At this time, the truth was revealed by his companion that the hack driver was none other than Lutkins himself. The clerk felt so bad and ashamed of how he had been fooled by a villager.

To whom does Jefferson refer in this excerpt?

A) the British Parliament
B) the citizens of Great Britain
C) the British military
D) the King of Great Britain

Answers

Answer:

B) the citizens of Great Britain

Explanation:

Declaration of Independence, in U.S. history, document that was approved by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, and that announced the separation of 13 North American British colonies from Great Britain. It explained why the Congress on July 2 “unanimously” by the votes of 12 colonies (with New York abstaining) had resolved that “these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be Free and Independent States.” Accordingly, the day on which final separation was officially voted was July 2, although the 4th, the day on which the Declaration of Independence was adopted, has always been celebrated in the United States as the great national holiday—the Fourth of July, or Independence Day.

Of course, neural networks still have a long way to go before they can model the human brain. As physicist Heinz Pagels has said: “The difference between a real neuron and the model neurons . . . is like the difference between a human hand and a pair of pliers.” But the fact that a simple neural network can speak at all is remarkable, indicating that perhaps human abilities can be simulated by electronics. . . .


Which is the most accurate summary of Kaku’s argument?

A.The simulated speech of neural networks suggests the potential for other electronic simulations.
B.Neural networks are vastly inferior to the human brain, and critics question whether they can speak at all.
C.Neural networks are vastly different from the human brain, just as pliers are different from the human hand.
D.Electronic simulation of speech suggests that technological ability will eventually exceed human potential.

"I would like to live in because" Will somebody help me with this essay.

Answers

I would like to live in a spaceship because there’s so many thing you could do, you could travel to space, you could see what the buttons do, you can explore around. But there’s so many other things you could live in to but I chose spaceship because I really enjoy the concept of space and it’s mystery. So I would really like to live in a spaceship so I could probably get to understand space science a little better in a better perspective. Did you know that the government will no longer fund space exploration, but will pay almost a million dollars on soccer fields for inmates? (“Mr.Conversation”). Since the beginning of time humans have stared at the stars and questioned, what would it be like to explore them? After thousands of years people have left our planet and explored the neverending void of space, expanding knowledge of the universe. Now after moon explorations, and rovers sent to other planets the government has decided to stop funding NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and now space exploration is swiftly coming to a close. Space exploration is important because, while planet Earth is becoming more hostile, the human race must find a way to survive. One of the biggest discoveries of space exploration is proof that Mars could have, at one point contained life (“Space”). The reason this is big is it shows that humans are not alone in the universe. Another big thing is we got to see that there are other planets beyond our solar system. Also because of views of other planets in the universe, scientist have found out that the human race is lucky, because they are in what is known as the goldilock zone. The goldilock zone is a place that is not too far away from a sun, but also not too close. “ If Earth were a little closer to the sun it might be like hot choking Venus; a little farther, like cold arid Mars”(“NASA”). With this knowledge scientists can look through the solar system, in multiple different galaxies. This will not only expand human knowledge, but could potentially find a future home for the entire human population.

Yes, you are so full of life, full of the most varied trees, shrubs, flowers, fruits, animals and microbes, insects, among others that I could never mention.

Your rivers see me in peace, your green gives me hope, your blue gives me calm. There is how I would like to be always surrounded by you, feeling your sweet, citrus odors and your protective shadow.

It breaks my heart to see you exploited, mistreated, subjugated, burned and destroyed. I want you strong and expansive and not cornered and contracted.

Humanity does not deserve you, because you are transcendental and superior to all of us who have caused you so much harm. We will only realize your benefits when you are no longer here. Thus, your memory will only bring harm, because sadness will no longer be able to extinguish.
