OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you think?

OpenStudy (jaketylerbarreto):

The first thing we shall do is acquire a list of human qualities.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Heres the second question “And Yet the Books” . Which of the following statements best conveys the author's message in "And Yet the Books"? People have a responsibility to record their history of violence in books. Books have resilience and the ability to stand the test of time; people do not. People may forget their actions in the past; the books will always remember. Books should be carefully preserved as the only evidence of all that people do.

OpenStudy (jaketylerbarreto):

I believe the answer choice would be B, what do you think? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's what I said :) because the author is kind of switching off between good and bad things in humans :)

OpenStudy (jaketylerbarreto):

Indeed.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks- could you help me on a few more ??

OpenStudy (jaketylerbarreto):

Absolutely.

OpenStudy (jaketylerbarreto):

Also, make sure to get a list of human qualities to help start the first question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (jaketylerbarreto):

Well, I thought I had seen another question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on a sec. I'll post again

OpenStudy (jaketylerbarreto):

Okay, take your time.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
