Suppose you would like to go ice-skating. To see if this a good idea, you decide to check the daily newspaper for a weather report.What specific information should you look for?a. The 90-day forecast
b. The time of sunrise and sunset
c. The temperature
d. The average wind speed

Answers

Answer:

If I plan to go ice-skating, in order to see if this is a good idea, I should check the temperature in the daily newspaper. The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

All the other options are not useful if I want to ice-skate. The first one is not helpful because I want to go today, or tomorrow, I don't need a 90 day forecast. The time of sunrise and sunset is not important because I can ice-skate during the day or night, and the average wind speed is not necessary to go ice-skating. The only option possible is C because by knowing the temperature we will know the state of the ice rink and which clothes to wear before going out.

Caliban should be more appreciative that Prospero took him under his wing when he arrived on the island.

What do you think? Write a paragraph supporting your opinion and then write a reply paragraph. If you're working with others, your reply paragraph should respond to the ideas of another student. If you're working alone, your reply paragraph should support the opposite point of view from your own.

Answers

Appreciation would always be present regardless of the factthat Prospero’s treatment of Caliban changed. Because of Prospero’s initial kindness toward Caliban, an appreciationwas there.  Again, even if the treatmentchanged, that appreciation of initial kindness would never be changed toresentment.  Further, even if it werepossible for Caliban to be more appreciative, what would really have had tochange were the actions, not the feelings (which is what appreciation is—a feeling).  Perhaps if Caliban had done more to show hisappreciation, Prospero’s treatment of Caliban would not have changed toharshness.







Answer:

Caliban should not be more appreciative of Prospero because he took him under his wing when he arrived on the island.

Explanation:

Prospero taught him how to speak and cared for him, and in return, Caliban showed Prospero his island. However, Prospero betrays him by imprisoning Caliban in a tiny cave and taking the island for himself. Prospero also abuses Caliban if he doesn’t do as he is told. “If thou neglect'st or dost unwillingly/What I command, I'll rack thee with old cramps/Fill all thy bones with aches, make thee roar/That beasts shall tremble at thy din." (Act I, Scene II). Although Prospero shows kindness by teaching Caliban his language, his abuse towards Caliban outways any positive notions. It becomes solid reasoning in support of the idea that Caliban should not be more appreciative of Prospero.
