Even though one book after another repeats this myth, the popularity of spices had nothing to do with disguising the taste of meat or fish that had gone bad. any lord who could afford spices (which were expensive) could easily get fresh meat or fish (which were readily available); and when a cook happened to be stuck with rancid food, the spices he had available could not hide the awful smell or taste. whenever they could, people used the spices that were so popular, they became an expensive necessity: pepper, ginger, sugar, sometimes saffron. only the very rich could afford the luxuries—such as ambergris (which is coughed up by whales and offers a strange, perfumy taste of the sea).

the central idea in this passage is that spices were popular because they were flavorful, not because they people eat spoiled food. which ideas are key details supporting this? check all that apply.
spices could not disguise bad meat.
ambergris has a briny, sealike taste.
fresh meat and fish were easy to find.
only the very rich could afford luxuries.
a myth is often repeated in books.

Explanation:

These three sentences are the ones that confirm the central idea of the text, because they explain why this central idea is true. In addition, the phrase "Ambergris has a briny, sealike taste." is not confirming the central idea, this is just adding information on the purchasing power of the rich. The phrase "A myth is often repeated in books." also confirms nothing.

Flavor encompasses both the texture and smell of food, as well as its taste. Taste is the recognition of the basic tastes of sour, sweet, salty, bitter, and umami by the tongue and taste buds in the mouth.

Explanation:

Options 1, 3, and 4 are the right answers.

These three sentences, i.e., Spices couldn't hide rotten meat, fresh fish and meat were simple to come by, and luxury was only available to the wealthy. are the ones that confirm the text's fundamental point because they show why it is correct.

Furthermore, option 2, "Ambergris has a briny, sealike flavor." does not reinforce the fundamental premise; rather, it simply adds information on the wealthy's purchasing ability. Option 5, "A myth is frequently repeated in texts." adds nothing to the picture.

old disney was more kid oriented as appose to new disney it's more teen oriented.i guess what i'm trying to say is new disney is way more mature and out there then old disney. for instance all you see in new disney is bf/gf drama and old disney it was nothing like that. kids are growing up and as coorpations like disney, nickolden etc they tend to follow what kids follow so they can have more views . therefore   they have inferred   that now days kids want to have relationships and stuff so that's what disney gives them.

the author is intending to draw attention to the plight of refugees, editorial and biography support this. both workpieces make the reader empathize with enrique as well as with the other young migrants from central america. the writer, however, is using a different approach to each text.

the editorial includes strong words to persuade readers. he is trying hard to convince readers in the us to change its refugee approach.

the biography relies on narrative techniques and figurative language which the writer uses wisely in the setting, characterization, and personification to educate readers on the topic.
