We shall all come to it some day," said Gerasim, displaying his teeth—the even white teeth of a healthy peasant—and, like a man in the thick of urgent work, he briskly opened the front door, called the coachman, helped Peter Ivanovich into the sledge, and sprang back to the porch as if in readiness for what he had to do next.

What can you conclude about Gerasim from the phrase "the even white teeth of a healthy peasant?"

A.Gerasim is particular about his dental hygiene.
B.Gerasim belongs to the bourgeoisie.
C.Gerasim belongs to the working class.
D.Gerasim is able to stay cheerful even in difficult times.

Lincoln's Gettysburg Address describes the bravery of Union soldiers where Lincoln speaks about the sacrifices of the soldiers and what it meant for the war during that time. He applies certain diction for the speech in order to make it more memorable.

In Letter to His Son, Robert Lee uses subjective style of writing because the author addresses to his own son and therefore the language is more personal. Like, Lincoln's speech, the letter also concerns the importance of the soldier's resistance for the fate of the Union.

The correct answer is D.

What is Deceitfulness?

The act of hiding information, especially to one's advantage: He seemed to be the only one who had noticed Lucy's deceit. Many people use the words dishonest, mendacious, and untruthfulness as synonyms for deceptive.

Deceitful is one of these words that means "unworthy of confidence or belief," although dishonest typically refers to making a false front or engaging in double-dealing.

Dishonest remarks are deceitful, and dishonest people usually lie to or deceive others, therefore calling someone dishonest is not a compliment. When you call someone dishonest, you're referring to the dishonest manner in which they mislead other people.

Thus, option C is correct.

A length of rope is stretched between the top edge of a building and a stake in the ground. The rope also touches a tree halfway between the stake and the building. If the building is 36 feet tall, how tall is the tree?

Answers

The answer is 18 ft.

x - the height of the building.
x1 - the height of the tree.
y - the distance between the building and the stake.
y1 - the distance between the tree and the stake.
 
x = 36 ft
x1 = ?
y = 1
y1 = 0.5 (because it is halfway between the stake and the building, which is y)

By similar triangles:
x : x1 = y : y1
36 : x1 = 1 : 0.5
x1 = 36 * 0.5 : 1
x1 = 18 ft

Who invented hunting?

Answers

One opinion says that hunting was invented by the people who lived
back at the beginning of people.  I think it goes back even farther than
that.

Every living thing that can move around goes hunting for things to eat,
and there were a huge number of living things that could move around, 
long before people came along.  Like dinosaurs, bats, cockroaches etc.

So I don't think you can say that hunting was ever invented.  It was just
something that living things just naturally always did, like breathing.
people from the beginning of people.
