Also, imagery is used in the first line. The poem, overall, is a metaphor for the different directions one takes in life. ''

Why Do We Have Schools?

Education in our society serves many purposes, but there are three main functions. First, students learn skills that will help prepare them for society. Writing, reading, and mathematics are essential in today’s workplace and many people learn these skills in school. Second, schools serve communities. Whether by functioning as polling locations during elections, or providing safe havens for students in temporary living situations, public schools add value to communities. Third, public schools provide a structured environment for children to engage in productive activities during many days of the year while their adult caretakers may be working. In other words, public schools also provide day care. These are three of the primary reasons why we have schools in our society.

D) it tries to persuade by using reasoning that is not sound or logical

Explanation:

Create ONE original post that: Shares the predictions and revisions you made while reading the blog, "Veterans Appreciate Our Gratitude" . Cites specific information from the text that caused you to revise predictions as you read. Explains how making predictions affected your focus while reading.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The text shows how war veterans deserve the gratitude and consideration of their countrymen for all they have done in defense of the country, however, gratitude is not enough for the veterans to live well, since they do not receive government assistance when they return home and end up suffering from unemployment and low quality of life.

The text predictions changed my experience and focus on reading. This is because, I predicted that the text talked about how we have to respect veterans and although the text reinforces this idea, it extends it, showing that respect and gratitude go beyond feeling, but must be shown with actions too.

These predictions come from the title of the text, showing us how important it is to be grateful for those who defend us.

What do you think the Kanamits' greatest weapons
were against the humans? Why?

Answers

Answer:

Their language (the Kamanit language)

Explanation:

The Kamanit came to earth and made promises to humans. They promised to make their lives better with various forms of technology - no more war, famine or energy problems. The Kamanit delegate went as far as inviting humans to their planet. Their technological interventions were tested and they brought results which made humans happy.

When the Kamanit delegate was done speaking, he left a book behind -  a book written in their language. Humans decoded the title and saw that it translated to - To serve man. This made humans trust the Kamanit because the title of the book suggested that they wanted to look out for them.

But when the whole book was translated, it was discovered that it was a cook book. And that the Kamanits planned to use humans as food.

But it was already too late because thousands of humans already moved to their planet.
