Read the passage.
The Dirty Thirties and the Filthy Fifties
The southern Great Plains, an area of the U.S. known for its wheat production, was struck by a severe drought in the early 1930s. Farmers were unable to coax wheat from the parched earth. Huge swaths of plowed land, unanchored by native grasses, were left exposed to the region's strong winds, resulting in years of dust storms that earned the decade the title the Dirty Thirties. Facing poverty and dust inhalation, four hundred thousand people fled the region. Years later, a resurgence of dust storms occurred during another drought. However, the extent of the damage during the Filthy Fifties (as the decade came to be called) offered a contrast to the Dirty Thirties. Not only was the drought shorter, but the land was less vulnerable. In the intervening years, the federal government had restored prairie grasses, while farmers had also applied techniques to prevent soil erosion.

Which civilization in asia has the greatest contribution to humanity?​

Answers

Answer:

So, given this, the comments of U.S. Republican Representative Steve King of Iowa regarding the civilizations of the world are a cause of great trepidation and sorrow. Referring to non-white people, King asked: “I’d ask you to go back through history and figure out, where are these contributions that have been made by these other categories of people that you’re talking about — where did any other subgroup of people contribute more to civilization?” He added his view that the greatest contributions to civilization came from “Western civilization itself…rooted in Western Europe, Eastern Europe and the Unites States of America and every place where the footprint of Christianity settled the world. That’s all of Western civilization.”

Explanation:

What’s discouraging about King’s statements are that they resemble an increasingly common viewpoint in the discourse among the right and nationalists in the Western world and among the rank and file of the Republican Party in the United States. It is a discourse that does not match up with the facts about the historical development of civilizations. According to Modern Western civilization, after all, is a relatively recent phenomenon that arose through the fusion of Roman and Christian ideas in Europe during the Medieval Era. Other civilizations preceded, influenced, and coexisted with the West.

Based on your reading, answer the following questions.
1. What's the traditional order for writing an essay?
2. What's the disadvantage to using a sentence outline?
3. What's the first part of any outline?
4. What's parallel grammatical construction? Why is it important?
5. What's a good ordering system for your writing?

Answers

I do not have the reading, but here is what I think the answers might be;

[1] Intro, background, main body, and summary

(1) Intro / entice the reader

(2) List the general idea or background

(3) Write the main body, divided into two/three body paragraphs  

(4) End with a summary

[2] Time-consuming

  The disadvantage to using a sentence outline is that the author has to think out each entry before it can be written down. This can quickly become time-consuming since there are many sentences, and it can also cause the final to be rather lengthy.

[3] Statement of subject

The first part of any outline should be the statement of subject. It can be expressed in a single phrase or a sentence. It may also be called your "topic sentence."

[4] Headings are similar throughout the whole construction

Parallel grammatical construction means the grammatical construction used in one heading is similar to headings throughout the entire outline. Similar heading can be easier to understand.

[5] Options below

() Spatial

() Chronological order

() Order of importance

() Order of comparison

What are the adverbs in the sentence
Because the weather was so cold, everyone rushed inside for some hot chocolate

Answers

Answer:

I'm pretty sure one of them is rushed, but please correct me if I am wrong!

Explanation:

An adverb is a word or phrase that modifies or qualifies an adjective, verb, or other adverb or a word group.  It expresses a relation of place, time, circumstance, etc.  In this case, it would be expressing a relation of time.  Since you are "rushing" you are in a sense moving in time urgently.  

I don’t believe there are any adverbs in the sentence because an adverb is a combination of adjectives (a describing word) and verbs (an action or linking word) if rushed were to be the adverb it would say hurriedly or quickly or swiftly. Most adverbs end in ly but not all

Summary of the bicycle by Dash Benhur

Answers

As said by Louise J. Kaplan, “Adolescence represents an inner emotional upheaval, a struggle between the eternal human wish to cling to the past and the equally powerful wish to get on with the future”. In the story “The bicycle’’, by Jillian Horton, Hannah is going through her adolescent age which brings a lot of emotional changes in her life. Hannah was a very devoted, ignorant and hard working girl in the start of the story. When she was 15 years old she slowly changed and now wanted to be independent and didn 't like to follow the rules anymore. By the end of the story, she broke all the rules and wanted to follow her heart 's desires. In the story “The bicycle’’, by Jillian Horton, Hannah experiences a transition from an ignorant, obedient and disciplined child to a rebelling, disobedient and independent adolescent.…show more content…

Hannah was ignorant about the world around her and was only concentrated on learning the piano and dreaming about becoming a concert pianist. “[Hannah] dreamed of [herself] in flowing dresses with [her] long black hair grown out to [her] waist and a string of pearls at [her] throat”(horton.1). This shows that Hannah is living in her own world with her hopes and dreams. Hannah realized that she has a great talent and she can become a famous concert pianist one day. Hannah believed when Tant Rose said “ If [she] made a few sacrifices and worked hard [she] would be famous’’(1). Hannah was a very hard worker and by working night and day she became very good at playing the piano. Hannahs talent was shown in the story when it was said that “[she] was playing the music of Beethoven and Liszt with proficiency’’(1). Therefore all these statements show that Hannah was a very devoted ignorant and hard working girl at the start of the New age.
