which is correct: hiding one's light beneath a bushel, or hiding it behind a bushel?

under. A bushel is a measure of corn, a kind of basket. It's a saying of Christ.

Its a cute question. :-)\nLet me explain it this way.\n\nShadows arent necessarily objects themselves. \nThey are just a patch of surface, which dont recieve direct light from the source (sun, lamp etc), but only recieve the scattered rays of light. \nAnd for this reason, these patches are dimly lit, making it look darker than the surrounding, which in our daily terms is 'black'. :-)

See in the dark b/c darkness is everywhere... and I'm a little scared of the dark, so if I can see through it then it's no worries.

Assuming that each bulb is turned on, the answer would be no.  While bulb A may block the light cast by bulb B - the blocking of light is how shadows are formed - bulb A would cast its on rays, thereby illuminating the spot on the wall where the shadow would have otherwise been.

Both.  A lie is a lie.  If you don't get the whole truth you are being lied to.  Sometimes people tell partial truths so you will believe them entirely, they will even say stuff like hey I was honest about blah, blah, blah.  A lie of omission is still a lie.

I would have put this under Words and Wordplay, but here is fine.\n\nAs for the question, it really is a question of situation. Contract the two that you don't want emphasis on.

Knowledge is power.  \n\nI rather stand in the light than have faith in shadows.

Its refering to sunlight. Only sunlight goes low or dim (We were afraid that the light was too low)

Some light can pass through a translucent object, like wax paper; while no light can pass through something opaque, like construction paper.

I think it is something that placed in a way that from \nright to left (flat way) or so but not from up to down or down to up.\nexample: ------------------------- horizontal line

It is different, but not for that reason. The position of your shadow is dependant not only on your position, but also on the position of the light source that you are obscuring. Think about it like this: Take a ruler and hold it in your right fingers at the end of the ruler. Grab the ruler somewhere in the middle with your left fingers. Now, while holding your right hand in place, move your left hand around and watch how the speed of the free end of the ruler (the side you're not holding) compares to the speed of your left hand. Unless you're doing something wrong, the end of the ruler will be moving faster than your hand. Now imagine that your right hand is a light source, your left hand is you, and the free end of the ruler is your shadow. It works the exact same way.

This question has two different answers depending on how you read it.  The intensity of the light that reaches you will be reduced as you move away from it, but the intensity of the source stays constant.  Its a matter of perspective, so therefore the preson who asked you this question should clarify it for you.  I'd write both answers and explain each.  Your teacher should except that.

Do your own homework.\n\nIt's pretty bad when you don't even try to hide it.

I like to make love with the lights off... it's much more misterious that way... one has the chance to dicover his/her partner throughout caresses, with her/his lips... the darkness sets free our imagination... (it also hides a lot of flaws by the way :) )

Amen...once the light has been "lit".... Luke 11:33 "No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light. So keeping on "shining" & may the Lord continue to bless you!

When a person is given good news, the person wants to share that good news.\nIf a person has lived in darkness and is given the light and can see things and understand things as never before, it would make sense that this person would want to share this light with the ones still in the dark. Many people may prefer the dark because they are comforable there.  People that have the light remember what that was like and show compassion.
