Which word most accurately describes an artifact from the 12th century?
aged
ancient
geriatric
old

Ancient

"Ancient" is most commonly used to describe something that dates from a long time past in historical or archaeological terms. This would be the most accurate way to describe an artifact from the 12th century. "Aged" is most often used in the case of things that are purposefully brought to their point of maturity, such as wine and cheese. "Geriatric" is a word that refers to the elderly, while "old" describes any item that has existed for a long time, or that cannot be called "new" any longer.

you cant make me do anything i don't want to do michael yelled.

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).
