plz explain lewis dot structure and electron dot structure of each elementexplain all things draw figure

A Lewis dot structure is a way to show how many outer, or
valence, electrons an atom has, and also how the valence electrons of two (or more)
atoms can interact to create a chemical bond.

To draw a dot
structure for an atom, you must figure out how many valance electrons the atom has. To
do this, look at a periodic table
of the elements. Find the element, and then count how many spaces it is from
the left hand margin of the table, skipping the d-block (transition metals). The number
of boxes you counted is equal to the number of valence electrons. (There are
instructions for this href="http://misterguch.brinkster.net/subatomic%20particles.html">here.)

Once
you know the number of electrons, write the element's abbreviation, and put that number
of dots around it. You should start by putting one dot directly above the letters at 12
o'clock, then put a dot at 3, at 6, at 9, at 12 (which makes a pair), and so on until
you run out of dots. There should never be more than 8 dots (4 pairs). Here's what href="http://www.hhscougars.org/ourpages/auto/2007/10/16/1192578073868/lewis%20structure%20bromine%20atom.jpg">bromine

Identify a non-Western culture that still has strong ties to its own traditional culture but integrates with current Western...

I would say that Japan is a culture that fits this
description.  It has thoroughly Westernized in many ways, but it has not done so
completely.

We all know that Japan has become quite
Westernized.  Japan's economy was until just recently the second largest in the world. 
It built that economic power on industrial power, which is a very Western thing
historically.  It has become a democratic country, also a Western
thing.

At the same time, Japan has not abandoned its
traditional culture.  Though it is not as prevalent as before, Japanese are (of course
this is not true of all Japanese) still very much more reserved and formal than most
Westerners are.  Japanese are still very much tied to their traditional foods.  They
still do very quintessentially Japanese things like cherry blossom-viewing and autumn
leaf-viewing.  In these ways, Japan is still quite distinctively Japanese even as it has
become an industrial, capitalist democracy.

In Othello, why does Cassio display ignorance of Othello's marriage when conversing with Iago (1.2.49-53)?

There is a very simple reason why Cassio appears to be
ignorant about the marriage of Othello to Desdemona in these lines. The truth is that he
didn't know about it. Let us remember that we are told in Act I scene 1 that Othello and
Desdemona have married very recently and in secret. This is news to Roderigo, who
clearly wanted to marry Desdemona for himself, and thus we can infer that it would be
news for Cassio too. The sudden and secret nature of this marriage would have meant that
even those closest to Othello, such as Cassio, would have been kept in the dark until
Othello chose to reveal it, or until others did the revealing for him. Therefore, Cassio
is not feigning his ignorance in the section of the play that you have identified. He is
genuinely surprised at an action that shocked many.

Why does the author say that looking at the cells of a flower under the microscope takes away the very beauty of the flowers? I would like to...

In his autobiographical work titled My Life and
Hard Times, James Thurber humorously describes his inability to see the cell
structures of plants while trying to view those structures with a microscope in his
botany class. Thurber's professor cannot believe or accept the claim that Thurber
genuinely cannot see the cell structures. The professor becomes increasingly frustrated
and tries to make numerous adjustments in Thurber's microscope so that Thurber will
finally be able to see the cells.

Thurber willingly
concedes that the structures of flower cells may indeed be "interesting," but he simply
remains unable, because of his poor eyesight, to see those structures. Finally the
following exchange occurs, with Thurber speaking
first:

"It
takes away the beauty of the flowers anyway," I used to tell him. "We are not concerned
with beauty in this class," he would
say.

This is the extent of
the discussion about the beauty of flowers in the "University Days" chapter of
My Life and Hard Times. Thurber implies that to appreciate the
beauty of the flowers depends on seeing them whole, not on seeing merely microscopic
parts of them. He does not, however, insist upon this position. Rather, as in much of
this chapter, he is passive and somewhat stoic. He does not argue with his professor
about the value of beauty; he merely mentions the topic and then lets it drop, which is
typical of his personality throughout this section of his book. The things that matter
to many of his professors simply do not matter to Thurber, not so much because he is
rebellious as because he is humorously untalented and ill-equipped to be the kind of
student his professors often want him to be. Rather than trying in inspire Thurber, they
more often try to force him to behave as they want him to
behave.

Why does slienc play an important role in Of Mice and Men

The characters in the novel don't communicate with each
other. This leads to misunderstandings and ultimate tragedy. Silence, or at least
evasion, is prevalent. This causes the plot twists that occur. Silence about feelings is
what ultimately leads to Curley's death, which is a major event. Candy's silence about
how he much he loves his dog leads to his having to let it be
killed.

Curley's wife's inability to communicate with
Curley about her boredom and her lost dreams leads to her being so lonesome that she
flirts with other men, causing the tragedy of her death and what it meant to George and
Lennie.

The silence of the whole group about what happened
to Curley also had significant, but different, impact on all.

What is a literary terminology question from "The Yellow Wallpaper"?

An easy way to approach answering a question like this is
to identify a literary device that is used and then turn that into a question. For
example, if, when reading this excellent short story, you come across a simile or a
metaphor, you can easily create a question based on literary terminology by asking what
kind of literary term is being used in that quote. For example, this might be a good
sample question you could use:

You think you have mastered it, but just as you
get well under way in following, it turns a back-somersault and there you are. It slaps
you in the face, knocks you down, and tramples upon you. It is like a bad
dream.

So what literary
technique is used in this quote? The answer is of course a simile that occurs in the
last sentence, when the pattern on the yellow wallpaper is described as being "like a
bad dream." So, my advice to you is to go back and re-read this excellent short story
and identify literary terms that you could use to form the basis of questions. Hope this
helps and good luck!

In The Souls of Black Folk, by W. E. B. Du Bois, what is the significance of the role of the church in the Black Belt?

In his famous work The Souls of Black
Folk, W. E. B. Du Bois writes extensively (especially in Chapter 7) about the
so-called “Black Belt” and about the importance of churches in that region of the
South.

Among other things, Du Bois says the following
concerning churches in the Black Belt:

• The
  church was often both literally and figuratively central to the community, as Du Bois
  suggests when he says of one church,

readability="8">

it is the centre of a hundred cabin homes; and
sometimes, of a Sunday, five hundred persons from far and near gather here and talk and
eat and sing.

• As
  the preceding quotation implies, the church was important not only religiously but also
  in promoting a sense of communal fellowship, or shared
  belonging.


• In the Black Belt, the church was also often a
  center of education. As Du Bois puts it, “usually the school is held in the
  church.”


• Churches could vary in size from the very small
  to the fairly large, but always they were important parts of the
  community.


• Later in the book, Du Bois suggests that the
  kind of religious services practiced in rural black churches (presumably including those
  in the Black Belt) was often intense and enthusiastic. Music and the preacher (he says)
  played very important parts in such services.


• The
  preacher, Du Bois notes, was often an extremely significant member of the community – a
  highly influential leader:

The Preacher is the most unique personality
developed by the Negro on American soil: a leader, a politician, an orator, a "boss,” an
intriguer," an idealist, — all these he is, and ever, too, the centre of a group of men,
now twenty, now a thousand in number. The combination of a certain adroitness with
deep-seated earnestness, of tact with consummate ability, gave him his preeminence, and
helps him maintain
it.

• In addition,
  Du Bois contends that the

Music of Negro religion is that plaintive
rhythmic melody, with its touching minor cadences, which, despite caricature and
defilement, still remains the most original and beautiful expression of human life and
longing yet born on American
soil.

Thus the church in the
Black Belt and in other rural areas of the African-American South helped foster
community, education, leadership, and artistic achievement.
