“wretched sylph too fondly (interposed), fate urged the shears, and cut the sylph in twain." which of these is nearest in meaning to the word (interposed), as it is used in the passage above? a.) objected b.) fled c.) interfered d.) revived

The answer is: C.) interfered.

In the passage from Alexander Pope's "The R*pe of the Lock ," the word interposed means to intervene between two parties. As a consequence, the word which comes closer in meaning is interfered, which implies taking part or intervening in an activity without invitation or necessity.

The rest of the choices are incorrect because object is used to express disapproval, flee suggests escaping from a dangerous situation, and revive means to restore to life or consciousness.

C.) interfered

Explanation:

I have already had this question and got it correct...SIKK I JUST COPIED FROM THE OTHER PERSON LOL

explanation:

the intellectual community is a place like a university where people with high marks, or original thought or an outstanding interest in something gather. they take classes together. they discuss things. they argue sometimes, and not always in a friendly way. but if they argue, it is because they are passionate about something, and there is nothing the matter with that.

lately i've been hearing rumors that it is not the way it was when i went to school. the one thing all schools used to have was free speech. the 1st amendment rights were sacred. now i'm hearing they are not. students can be reported and disciplined for giving an off the wall opinion.

that is shameful.

intellectual ideas are meant to be discussed. they are meant to be chewed up and worked on. that is the primary responsibility of every intellectual community. if that is not the way it is, then that is not a school to go to.

social media, in my opinion, and this is just an opinion. i wouldn't take it too seriously, complicates everything to do with human communication. you can want to share things and others feel they have the right to be very critical or sarcastic or mean about what you share. lack of respect is an immeasurable intolerable condition and social media abounds with that sort of thing.

one of the things i really like about is how careful people are because they must have some idea that the mods are exactly what the word says they are. they police this board very well, and what is so remarkable about them is that they are no older than the average grade 12 student.

my hat goes off to them (which means i respect them quite a bit).
