Read any urban legend about a person and summarize it. Analyze the story and explain whether you consider it factual or not.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

   I've read of the "disappearing hitchhiker" urban legend. On a road all by herself, a little girl makes her way. Seeing a female strolling alone, a guy who was driving himself to the dance decided to give her a lift, and once the night was finished, she wanted to be dropped off at her house. In order to be picked up on a chilly night, I borrowed his coat. They drove back the following morning to pick up the coat they'd left behind, only to discover from the girl's mother that she'd been dead for 12 years, had been slain on the same road they'd taken her on, and was buried not far away.

   Because they didn't believe it, they went to the cemetery and saw their coat hanging on her grave. When you hear urban legends, the underlying message is that you must be aware of your surroundings. You don't know what the person's mental condition is. Seek assistance if you are uncertain or afraid that your life is in danger. It's possible that the guy strolling by was a thief or a murderer seeking for a victim. Several versions of this tale have been told since the turn of the century, but the basic premise of a person disappearing at the end of the night stays the same in all of them. However, I think this narrative to be untrue, but the legend was designed to educate in a creative manner.

Hopefully this helps you. :)

Answer 2

Answer:

The legend of Bloody Mary is very popular among girls at my school. According to the story, if a person holding a candle in hand says “Bloody Mary” three times in front of a mirror, a witch named Bloody Mary appears in the mirror and attacks that person. According to legends, there was a woman who lived in the forest, and she subsisted on trade in herbal medicines. People called her Bloody Mary because no one knew her real name. People believed that she was a witch, and that she possessed magical powers. Everyone was afraid to cross her path. At one time, little girls from the village started to disappear mysteriously, and no one knew the reason for it. However, people suspected that Bloody Mary could be the cause for these disappearances. The people in the village set her ablaze, and she screamed and cursed the villagers. Before she died, she proclaimed that if anyone ever said her name aloud before a mirror, she would appear in front of that person and take revenge for her death.According to another popular version of the tale, only girls can evoke the spirit of Bloody Mary. In a completely darkened house, the girl has to walk up a flight of stair backwards, holding a candle in her hand. She then has to look into a mirror and say “Bloody Mary” three times. With this ritual, the spirit of Bloody Mary will come to life and attack the person.The Bloody Mary legend may have inspired many movies and television series, but there is a scientific explanation for it. Scientists point out that a room devoid of sufficient light can cause a person to hallucinate. In such a situation, if a girl looks into a mirror with a candle in her hand, she is bound to see an unclear image of herself, or she may see an unidentified image. This is the Caputo Effect.

Read the excerpts from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry” and “Speaking Arabic.”

My friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of receiving a fellowship. He took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of Spanish, English, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. In other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which is to say he took the soul out of his poetry.

At a neighborhood fair in Texas, somewhere between the German Oom-pah Sausage Stand and the Mexican Gorditas booth, I overheard a young man say to his friend, “I wish I had a heritage. Sometimes I feel—so lonely for one.” And the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head.

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.

Explanation:

Snog plz help me or anyone plz lend an hand to a failing grade plz be so kin as to help start by reading this The American colonies had accomplished an amazing success. Angry about their treatment by the British government, the colonists had protested and then revolted. After winning the Revolutionary War against England, they had formed a new country: the United States of America.



During the war, the Continental Congress had formed a government under the Articles of Confederation. This document served as the first constitution of the United States. Because of their experiences with the British government, the colonists had limited the power of the United States central government under the Articles. After the war, however, many people realized that the government had too little power. It could not collect taxes or regulate trade. There was no executive to enforce laws and no court system to make sure laws were fair. The country’s leaders realized the United States needed a new plan of government.

Respected people, or delegates, from all the colonies except for Rhode Island met in Philadelphia in 1787 to create a new constitution. For four months the delegates discussed problems and solutions—in secret so that no one would influence the decisions. Finally, in September 1787, they completed the writing of the United States Constitution. The next step was to get the document ratified, or approved, by nine of the thirteen states. That task was not easy.



When Americans learned the specifics of the Constitution, two groups formed. People who supported the strong government created by the Constitution were called Federalists. People who worried that the government would be too powerful were called Anti-Federalists. As the states prepared to ratify the Constitution, these two groups worked hard to get people to join their side. Leaders of the Federalists wrote a series of essays published throughout the country. They urged the states to ratify the Constitution without any amendments. Meanwhile, the Anti-Federalists wanted to make sure that people’s rights were protected against the government. It soon became clear that some states—especially big states such as Massachusetts, New York, and Virginia—were not ready to adopt the Constitution.



What were the rights that the Anti-Federalists wanted to protect? The list included the right to speak freely, to worship freely, to have fair searches, and to have a trial by jury. These were all rights that the British government had ignored before the Revolution. Federalists claimed that those rights were protected even though they were not specifically listed. After more than two years of discussions, James Madison proposed amendments, or additions, to the Constitution that would protect a citizen’s rights.



The House of Representatives passed seventeen amendments on August 24, and the Senate consolidated them into twelve amendments. The Senate passed them on September 9. In order for the amendments to become law, however, the states also had to approve them. Congress sent the amendments to the states on September 25. The states approved ten of the twelve amendments—known as the Bill of Rights—on December 15, 1791. The United States had a new government plan that allowed it to become not only the most powerful nation in the world but also the greatest protector of human rights. What are two central ideas of the passage?


Federalists didn't want a Bill of Rights.


The creation of the Constitution was complicated.


Many people worked together to create the Constitution.


Personal rights were unimportant to Americans.


James Madison proposed seventeen amendments.
