Which of the following best describes the author's purpose in the passage?
Excerpt from The Art of Singing
Luisa Tetrazzint, the most famous Italian coloratura soprano of the day, declares that she began to sing before she learned to talk. Her parents were not musical, but her elder sister, now the
wife of the eminent conductor Cleofante Campanini, was a public singer of established reputation, and her success roused her young sister's ambition to become a great artist. Her parents
were well to do, her father having a large army furnishing store in Florence, and they did not encourage her in her determination to become a prima donna. One prima donna, said her father,
was enough for any family.
Luisa did not agree with him. If one prima donna is good, she argued, why would not two be better? So she never desisted from her importunity until she was permitted to become a pupil of
Professor Coccherani, vocal Instructor at the Lycée. At this time she had committed memory more than a dozen grand opera roles, and at the end of six months the professor confessed that
he could do nothing more for her voice; that she was ready for a career.

Which two themes are expressed in this excerpt?
Read the excerpt from Jungle Book: Mowgli's Brothers.
Akela the Lone Wolf lay by the side of his rock as a sign
that the leadership of the Pack was open, and Shere
Khan with his following of scrap-fed wolves walked to
and fro openly, being flattered. Bagheera lay close to
Mowgli, and the fire-pot was between Mowgli's knees.
When they were all gathered together, Shere Khan
began to speak - a thing he would never have dared to
do when Akela was in his prime.
"He has no right," whispered Bagheera. "Say so. He is a
dog's son. He will be frightened."
Mowgli sprang to his feet. "Free People," he cried, "does
Shere Khan lead the Pack? What has a tiger to do with
our leadership?"
"Seeing that the leadership is yet open, and being asked
to speak - " Shere Khan began.
O It is flattering to be followed and admired.
Quiet people often have deep thoughts.
O Public speaking is a difficult skill.
Strong leadership is a privilege.
O Rules are important to keep order.
Strong leadership is a privilege.
O Rules are important to keep order.

This question has to have 150 words in it so I can get it correct because if it does not have 150 words in it i will fail and then I will not answer any of your questions that you need answered

What if human developed a way for people to have absolute control over their emotions? Like, if something sad happened to you, you could force yourself to feel happy? Or if something scary was happening, you could force yourself to feel brave? What might be the pros of that? What might be the cons?

Answers

Answer:

If people could has absolute control of they're emotions the world wouldn't be the same. If something sad happened it would be best to stay happy so that Is what I would do. You wouldn't want to sit around moping all day.

If something scary was happening of course you would chose not to be scared because who wants to be scared. But also if you chose not to be scared there is no fun in it then. You would also need time to process and think of what your emotion should be at that moment so our reactions would be slower.  You would also know what to expect whereas when we can't control our emotions a lot of the time we don't know what to expect.

The pros: You won't have to mope when your sad, you can be happy. You won't have to hide your feelings because you can control them.

The cons: If you go to a haunted house or something like that it's either because you were forced to go by someone or because you want to purposely get scared. If you were allowed to control your feelings you would chose not to get scared right?

Hope this helps!

Smart Fabric Technology by Outlast Technologies, Inc., of Boulder, Colo., was honored for a fabric first developed for potential use in spacesuits. The goal was to create a material to better protect astronauts from the bitter cold and searing heat of space. The technology impregnates the fabric with microencapsulated paraffin wax that chemically reacts to counteract high or low body temperatures. The millions of microcapsules recycle stored energy by absorbing and releasing excess body heat. If a person is cold, the material becomes warm. If the person is hot, the material cools.
