Let us now consider his [Cupid’s] attributes. He is described with great elegance as a little child, and a child for ever; for things compounded are larger and are affected by age; whereas the primary seeds of things, or atoms, are minute and remain in perpetual infancy. Most truly also is he represented as naked: for all compounds (to one that considers them rightly) are masked and clothed; and there is nothing properly naked, except the primary particles of things. Bacon lists Cupid’s attributes in order to: show that Cupid is real. prove that Cupid is a child. disprove the existence of the atom. compare them to the features of the atom

In the following passage from Great Astronomers by Robert Stewall Ball, the author states that he will trace the developments in astronomy from the time of Ptolemy to the nineteenth century. Based on the content and style of the excerpt, what kind of audience did Ball primarily have in mind when he was writing this book? The history of astronomy thus becomes inseparable from the history of the great men to whose labours its development is due. In the ensuing chapters we have endeavoured to sketch the lives and the work of the great philosophers, by whose labours the science of astronomy has been created. We shall commence with Ptolemy, who, after the foundations of the science had been laid by Hipparchus, gave to astronomy the form in which it was taught throughout the Middle Ages. We shall next see the mighty revolution in our conceptions of the universe which are associated with the name of Copernicus. We then pass to those periods illumined by the genius of Galileo and Newton, and afterwards we shall trace the careers of other more recent discoverers, by whose industry and genius the boundaries of human knowledge have been so greatly extended. Our history will be brought down late enough to include some of the illustrious astronomers who laboured in the generation which has just passed away. students specializing in the study of astronomy people with a casual interest in astronomy scientists and mathematicians working with astronomers geologists and cartographers

Read this excerpt from a research paper that argues that Charlotte Brontë was a pioneer of feminist literature. Which sentence is an example of evidence from a primary source? a.She was one of the few women in the Victorian era who pushed the boundaries and laid the groundwork for future feminists. b.Through her character Jane Eyre, Charlotte Brontë created an ideal female protagonist who refuses to submit to the rules set by the patriarchal society. c. For example, in the novel her character says, “Women are supposed to be very calm generally: but women feel just as men feel; they need exercise for their faculties, and a field for their efforts, as much as their brothers do; they suffer from too rigid a restraint, too absolute a stagnation, precisely as men would suffer.” d. Many literary critics believe that the character of Bertha Mason reflects the atrocities and pressures on women in the Victorian era. e. This point is explained in the book The Madwoman in the Attic: The Woman Writer and the Nineteenth-Century Literary Imagination by Sandra Gilbert and Susan Gubar.

Some goals you might not achieve, and some dreams might always remain dreams.

Living is about the choices we make every moment; it’s our job to make choices that make those moments count.
