But I fancy I hear some one of my audience say, it is just in this circumstance that you and your brother abolitionists fail to make a favorable impression on the public mind. Would you argue more, and denounce less, would you persuade more, and rebuke less, your cause would be much more likely to succeed. But, I submit, where all is plain there is nothing to be argued. What point in the anti-slavery creed would you have me argue? On what branch of the subject do the people of this country need light? Must I undertake to prove that the slave is a man? That point is conceded already. Nobody doubts it. The slaveholders themselves acknowledge it in the enactment of laws for their government. They acknowledge it when they punish disobedience on the part of the slave.

There are seventy-two crimes in the State of Virginia, which, if committed by a black man, (no matter how ignorant he be), subject him to the punishment of death; while only two of the same crimes will subject a white man to the like punishment. What is this but the acknowledgement that the slave is a moral, intellectual and responsible being? The manhood of the slave is conceded. It is admitted in the fact that Southern statute books are covered with enactments forbidding, under severe fines and penalties, the teaching of the slave to read or to write. When you can point to any such laws, in reference to the beasts of the field, then I may consent to argue the manhood of the slave. When the dogs in your streets, when the fowls of the air, when the cattle on your hills, when the fish of the sea, and the reptiles that crawl, shall be unable to distinguish the slave from a brute, then will I argue with you that the slave is a man! (“What to a Slave Is the Fourth of July” by Frederick Douglass.)

What is Douglass’s main argument in this passage?

A) The laws about slaves are unfair.

B) Slaves are human beings.

C) Slavery should be abolished.

D) He does not need to argue about whether slaves are human beings because everyone already agrees that they are.

N the first frantic greetings lavished on himself as a noted sufferer under the overthrown system, it had been accorded to him to have Charles Darnay brought before the lawless Court, and examined. Which type of phrase is the underlined portion of the sentence?

Answers

Answer:

C). Adverbial phrase.

Explanation:

An adverbial clause is described as a subordinate clause that functions as an adverb within the main clause. It functions as an adverb either to modify a verb, phrase, adjective, or even any other adverb.

The highlighted part of the sentence i.e. 'before the lawless court' demonstrates 'an adverbial clause.' It is beginning with subordinating conjunction 'before' which makes it a dependent clause and it acts as an adverb to describe the verb 'brought' by providing details about the place where the action took place. Thus, option c is the correct answer.

Answers

Answer:

Nancy took a breath and gathered her thoughts. She imagined that passing through the gray-zone door into Level 4 was like a space walk, except that instead of going into outer space, you went into inner space, which was full of the pressure of life trying to get inside your suit. People went into Level 4 areas all the time at the Institute, particularly the civilian animal caretakers. But going into a containment zone to perform a necropsy on an animal that had died of an amplified unknown hot agent was something a little different. This was high-hazard work. The central idea of this excerpt is that working in a containment zone is very dangerous. Which phrases from the excerpt most support the central idea

Answers

Answer:

The phrases  "But going into a containment zone to perform a necropsy on an animal that had died of an amplified unknown hot agent was something a little different," and the "This was high-hazard work." supports the central idea that working in a biological containment zone is very dangerous. The first few sentences shows that Nancy is preparing herself for the gray-zone door, and it also states they are wearing something like a suit or space suit possibly. If they are wearing space suits, this shows there is a very high danger behind the door.

Explanation:

-The Hot Zone.

I read the full book and also got this on a quiz in edge recently.

Answer:

A. amplified unknown hot agent; high-hazard work

Explanation:

These words show how dangerous it is to work in the containment zone, which is the central idea. Thus, these words support the central idea. Unknown hot agent portrays uncertainty and danger because it is unknown and dangerous, and high-hazard work also portrays danger.

three problems to develop the school​

Answers

Explanation:

Classroom Size

Many areas of the country are facing classrooms that are literally busting out at the seams. A report at NEA Today two years ago discussed how schools in Georgia, in the midst of major funding cuts for schools, had no choice but to lift all class size limits to accommodate students with the faculty the school system could still afford to keep. More recently, Fairfax County in Virginia has been looking into a proposal to increase classroom sizes in the face of significant budget cuts. The Board of Education in South Carolina is also weighing their options in this area.

Poverty

Technorati reported last fall that 22 percent of the children in the U.S. live at or below poverty level. American Graduate defines poverty as a family of four with an annual income level of $23,050 or lower. American Graduate also cites a report from the Southern Education Foundation, which shows in 17 states across the U.S., low-income students now comprise the majority of public school students in those states. Some estimates put poverty levels for public school students at 25% in the not-so-distant future.

Family Factors

Family factors also play a role in a teacher’s ability to teach students. Principals and teachers agree that what is going on at home will impact a student’s propensity to learn. Divorce, single parents, poverty, violence and many other issues are all challenges a student brings to school every day. While some teachers and administrators try to work with children in less than ideal family environments, they can only do so much – especially when parents are often not willing to partner with the schools to provide for the children.

What is a sentence?

A sentence is a group of words that expresses a complete thought, idea, or proposition. It typically consists of a subject, which is the main noun or pronoun that the sentence is about, and a predicate, which includes the verb and any objects or complements that follow it. A sentence can be simple, consisting of just one independent clause, or it can be complex, with multiple clauses and phrases. In written English, sentences are typically punctuated with a capital letter at the beginning and a full stop, question mark, or exclamation mark at the end.

Here in the Question,

The play's creator is dissatisfied in the audience's response and believes that they were uninterested in the play.

doctor's advice.

Answers

Answer:

The part that needs correcting is: B. follows.

Explanation:

The whole sentence is in the past, but then the verb "follows" is in the simple present tense. The problem with that is it does not match the second conditional established by the modal "would", which indicates a past action. If we were to use "follows", than we would have to use "will", making the sentence a first conditional. Take a look at the sentences below to see the difference:

- She will recover quickly if she follows the doctor's advice. (first conditional)

- She would recover quickly if she followed the doctor's advice. (second conditional)
