Read the excerpt from "The Gift of the Magi." In this excerpt, Jim’s character is developed
Hello. You did not submit the excerpt to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.
The only way to answer your question is to read the text it refers to. Within a text, characters are developed from the actions they promote within the situations in which they are inserted. They can also be developed through lack of direct action, but through reasoning, thinking, and observing what to do about something or someone. In that case, to answer that question, you must read the text and be able to identify the action Jim took, or lack of action within a situation. What's important is that the behavior Jim takes in this situation is meaningful both to him and to the story.
Which of these prompts would require writing a persuasive essay?
Answer:it would be c
Explanation:
They sat in the library after dinner and read the evening papers together under the droplight; while the younger people went into the drawing-room near by and talked. Miss Highcamp played some selections from Grieg upon the piano. She seemed to have apprehended all of the composer's coldness and none of his poetry. While Edna listened she could not help wondering if she had lost her taste for music. Which best describes the narrative voice of the excerpt? The author uses an objective observer to present a factual telling of the events of the story. The author uses a subjective observer to present subtle judgments about the characters. The author uses the point of view of a character in the story to offer insight into Mrs. Highcamp’s talents. The author uses the point of view of a character in the story to reveal the young people’s disinterest.
Answer:
The author uses a subjective observer to present subtle judgments about the characters.
Explanation:
Kate Chopin's "The Awakening" revolves around the story of Mrs. Edna Pontellier and her inner desires to be her own, do things her way, and express and say whatever she wishes. The story also deals with themes of freedom, society's expectations of women, etc.
In the given excerpt from the novel, the author uses a subjective observer who provides the readers with subtle judgments of the characters. Here, the unknown observer tells us about Miss Highcamp "[who] seemed to have apprehended all of the composer's coldness and none of his poetry." Even Mrs. Pontellier is not left behind. The observer remarks, "While Edna listened she could not help wondering if she had lost her taste for music."
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
Answer:
B. The author uses a subjective observer to present subtle judgments about the characters.

What does it mean by “a family has been lying to themselves for basically
their entire lives”?
Answer:
Lying is probably one of the most common wrong acts that we carry out (one researcher has said 'lying is an unavoidable part of human nature'), so it's worth spending time thinking about it.
Most people would say that lying is always wrong, except when there's a good reason for it - which means that it's not always wrong!
But even people who think lying is always wrong have a problem... Consider the case where telling a lie would mean that 10 other lies would not be told. If 10 lies are worse than 1 lie then it would seem to be a good thing to tell the first lie, but if lying is always wrong then it's wrong to tell the first lie...
Acknowledgement
Nobody who writes about lying nowadays can do so without acknowledging an enormous debt to this groundbreaking book: Lying: Moral choice in public and private life, by Sisela Bok, 1978.
The meaning of "a family has been lying to themselves for basically their entire lives” is that the family hasn't been truthful.
What is a family?It should be noted that family simply means the group of people who are related by blood or marriage.
In this case, the meaning of "a family has been lying to themselves for basically their entire lives” is that the family hasn't been truthful.

Being street smart is more important then being book smart.
Answer:
street smart means you have situational awareness. You can assess the environment you are in, who is in it, and what the available angles are. Being on the street, or in the trenches, or whatever low to the ground metaphor you prefer, requires you to learn to trust your judgment about people and what matters. This skill, regardless of where you develop it, is of great value everywhere in life regardless of how far from the streets you are. Most important perhaps, being street smart comes from experience. It means you’ve learned how to take what has happened to you, good or bad, think about it, and learn to improve from it. The prime distinction between street smarts and book smarts is who is at the centre of the knowledge. On the street, it’s you. In a book, it’s you trying to absorb someone else take on the world, and however amazing the writer is, you are at best one degree removed from the experience. Street smarts mean you’ve put yourself at risk and survived. Or thrived. Or have scars. You’ve been tested and have a bank of courage to depend on when you are tested again. Being street smart can lead to book smarts as the street smart sense what works and what doesn’t, and adapt accordingly.

Draw parallels between David McCullough Jr's address to the students of Wellesley HIgh School and the message of Miley Cyrus' song "The Climb" AND Five for Fighting's "100 Years" . Use text evidence from all three works in your answer using DIRECT CITATIONS.
Answer and Explanation:
When David McCullough Jr states in his speech "you are not special" he is showing his audience how adulthood will not treat them with affection, as the audience's family does to each of them. David McCullough Jr meant that although the public has been pampered, protected and treated as if they were different and special, by their families, they are just ordinary people and adulthood will not treat them special but will treat them with difficulties and challenges that will often not be conquered.
The way David McCullough Jr describes the difficulties of adult life can be associated with the lines of the song "The Climb" sung by Miley Cyrus that say "There's always gonna be another mountain/I'm always gonna wanna make it move/Always gonna make it move be an uphill battle/Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose." While this sounds demotivating, David McCullough Jr shows that this is what will, in fact, teach the public how to live, create experiences and allow them to recognize who they truly are, understand their limits and realize that they are not special, must fight to survive .
The way in which David McCullough Jr reinforces that adolescence is a phase of extreme protection can be associated with the following lines of the song "100 Years" sung by "Five for Fighting:" Fifteen, there's still time for you/Time to buy and time to lose yourself." Through these lines, we can see that David McCullough Jr reinforces the idea that adulthood is different from adolescence, as a matter of time. In adulthood, time is scarce and everything has to be resolved quickly, there is no more time to play or lose yourself, as time is essential for more serious difficulties to be resolved.

In April 2010, an oil rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico. Millions of gallons of oil leaked into the Gulf, devastating
wildlife. Scientists tried to clean up the spill in a variety of ways. One approach involved the use of oil-eating
bacteria. However, scientists were divided on its effectiveness. Some maintained that the bacteria were "fairly
fast" in cleaning the spill. Officials reported that the Gulf would make a full recovery by 2012. Yet Samantha Joye,
a marine scientist, disagreed. She conducted a study of the sea floor. She found that the bacteria had cleaned
only 10 percent of the oil. She reported that the Gulf would take many years to recover.

How does the text "Cornerstone of Civil Rights" support the idea that racism influenced decisions made in the founding of the United States?
Answer and Explanation:
The text shows how it was necessary for a constitutional mandate to be created to ensure that the African American population was seen as American citizens and had access to basic rights such as freedom and life. This was the 14th amendment that was created long after the founding of the USA. The text shows that this amendment needed to be created, because the country was formed with a highly racist base, where the concepts of freedoms, rights and social duties were only promoted to the white population, and blacks did not have access to this, as they were considered unworthy, even in a country that has become independent in its quest for freedom and justice.
In other words, "Cornerstone of Civil Rights" shows that it was necessary for the equality and basic rights of the Afro-American population to become a federal law, in order to guarantee that blacks had a minimum quality of life, because the country devalued this population of very intensely at the time of its conception.

Getting a new business off the ground can be a challenge, but a teenager in regional South Australia is managing to not only run his own clothing label, but complete high school at the same time.
Last year at the age of 16 and while studying Year 11 at Renmark High School, Nathan Woodrow started his own clothing label, Ryde Clothing.
His target market was teenagers and young adults wanting to grab life with a passion.
Using the motto “stay stoked” (defined by Urban Dictionary as a state of limitless enthusiasm), Nathan drew his clothing designs around skating, surfing and riding.
These were his passions until he a knee injury sidelined him from sport and he ventured into the world of business to fill the void.
“I wanted something to motivate me throughout the year so I started Ryde Clothing,” Nathan said.
“I'm really interested in riding my motorbikes, mountain bikes and I do a lot of skating too [as well as] wake boarding, wake skating, that sort of stuff.
