Read the excerpt from It's Our World, Too!: Young People Who Are Making a Difference. When they entered the board's meeting room, Neto was terrified. They were alone with the ten white men who were the members of the Marsing school board. "I couldn't believe I was really doing this," Neto recalls. "Then I heard Baldy say, 'Neto wants to talk with you about the football team.' "So I just started. I told them I was quitting and why. I told them word-for-word what I had heard. Only one of them looked like he was really listening. When I was finished, they thanked me for coming, but they didn't say they would do anything about it. I went home thinking, Well, at least I tried. Now they can't say nobody told them." Which detail from the excerpt best indicates that one of the author’s purposes in writing It's Our World, Too!: Young People Who Are Making a Difference was to create suspense?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The excerpt: Neto was terrified. They were alone with the ten white men who were the members of the Marsing school board. "I couldn't believe I was really doing this," best indicates the suspense that the author wanted to create.

Explanation: When writing a story, suspense must be used to surpass the reader's expectations. This is achieved by controlling information. In the text, the author started out describing Neto's nervousness and how scary the scenary was, using words as "alone" and "ten men". Moreover, Neto's words lead the leader to the peak of suspense, letting them wonder about the end of the events. The author best indicated his purpose by leaving what Neto had to say for the end.  

Answer 2

Answer:

C

Decide whether each character trait below describes White Fang before or after he meets Gray Beaver in the Indian camp. Drag each trait into the correct category.

Answers

Hi. You did not present the character traits the question refers to. This makes it impossible for your question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

According to the names of the characters you introduced, we can see that you are referring to the book "White Fang" written by Jack London, which presents the story of White Fang a wolf dog that learned the hard way to survive in an harsh environment, violent and oppressive. White Fang becomes a fierce, strong and brutal animal. These are the character traits that most characterize him. He behaves like this on account of violent owners and ferocious animals with which he has contact.

When he meets Gray Beaver, a Native American who becomes his owner, he remains strong and violent, but present to have order and be respectful of his master, being faithful and not disobeying or attacking the one who has dominion over him. These are the most influential character traits White Fang learns when he meets Gray Beaver.

Answer:

before he meets gray beaver: adventurous, fearless, trusting. after he meets gray beaver: homesick, defensive, and obedient.

write an argumentative essay about why online school is better than in person

Answers

At a traditional school, parental involvement is often limited to things like reviewing homework, attending parent-teacher conferences, or chaperoning field trips. Many parents are also out of the loop on academic performance until the end-of-term report card comes home, leaving parents and students little chance to course-correct.

With online school, parents have many options for being involved in their children’s education. As Learning Coaches, parents (or other trusted adults) may choose to support learning by structuring the online school student’s daily routine or reviewing lessons and grades as often as they wish. They can consult with online school teachers in regular meetings and, when needed, play an active role by helping to monitor attendance, progress, and comprehension. While every family does online learning a bit differently, online educators agree that it’s a good idea to assist with organization and time management, encourage students, and praise them for their hard work.

7 Question Reading Strategy
Good Idea!
Whenever you read something new you should apply reading strategies to that work so that you can be sure you really learn it! This is just one example!

As we read through this chapter, we are going to practice a reading strategy that will help you process your thoughts as you read. The first two questions on the worksheet need to be answered before you begin reading. Questions three through five are to be answered while reading. The last two questions should be answered after you are done reading. As there is not necessarily a correct response to the worksheet, you will do it on your own. You will be asked to write a reflective paragraph about the activity at the end of the lesson, so work carefully.

In this chapter, we have met Toulouse-Lautrec. Vincent van Gogh is very attracted to his boisterous personality, and we see that van Gogh is extremely shy when going to his meetings in his salon. We see as the chapter progresses though, that van Gogh comes out of his shell a great deal, and ends up being much more comfortable with the other artists.

When we came into this chapter, it seemed as though Vincent may not be successful as a “trained” artist since he struggled so much in his art class. This may have impacted your prediction somewhat. As the chapter goes on, we see a lot of highs and lows from Vincent’s behavior. When he is painting the river Seine, he is animated and excited. When he is drinking too much, and after he has worn out his stay, he seems to be miserable and depressed.

One thing is sure, after he has experienced this time in Paris, he has grown a great deal as an artist. We still do not know at this point, however, if he will achieve success, in whatever manner he defines it.

Dear Sir,

I am writing to your esteemed paper about the nuisance loudspeakers have posed in our locality. Many people, be it festivals or not, would install loudspeakers in and around the locality, playing music so loud that we can't even hear our own voices properly. We have written to the local authorities about it but nothing has been done so far.

The issue has led to the disturbance of out lives. Students can't study properly, elderly people cannot have peaceful sleep and babies are affected too.

So, if you could kindly highlight the issue in your daily paper, I hope the concerned authorities would do their part soon.

Thank you.

Dr. King employs allusions in his "Letter to Birmingham Jail" to help the audience make connections. Based on the thesis, what is the writer's purpose for the essay?

Answers

Answer:

The author's purpose is to allow, through the allusions, the public to be able to link the information presented in the letter with information of general knowledge.

Explanation:

The allusion is a figure of speech that allows an author, in his text, to make references to other texts, books, people, events and places.

There is a tale, “The Ring of Gyges,” that Feldman sometimes tells his economist friends. It comes from Plato’s Republic. A student named Glaucon offered the story in response to a lesson by Socrates—who, like Adam Smith, argued that people are generally good even without enforcement. Glaucon, like Feldman’s economist friends, disagreed. He told of a shepherd named Gyges who stumbled upon a secret cavern with a corpse inside that wore a ring. When Gyges put on the ring, he found that it made him invisible. With no one able to monitor his behavior, Gyges proceeded to do woeful things—seduce the queen, murder the king, and so on. Glaucon’s story posed a moral question: could any man resist the temptation of evil if he knew his acts could not be witnessed? Glaucon seemed to think the answer was no. But Paul Feldman sides with Socrates and Adam Smith—for he knows the answer, at least 87 percent of the time, is yes. The example in the excerpt helps the authors arrive at which of the following conclusions? The majority of people are corrupt. The majority of people are honest. Glaucon and Paul Feldman were wrong. Socrates and Adam Smith were wrong.

B.
––––––>

Answers

Answer:

B.

––––––>

Juan ran down the driveway so that he would not be late for the bus.

Explanation:

Juan ran down the driveway so that he would not be late for the bus. The arrow pointing to the right would be more probable than an arrow pointing to the left since the road (in normal circumstances) have the right lane going forward while the left lane is in the opposite direction.

––––––> juan ran down the driveway so that he would not be late for the bus.

The sentence that is likely to point to the right direction is the second one. This is because the arrow describes a movement from the left to the right. This is the most common way in which cars move down the road. It is also the most intuitive direction for people as we tend to read (in English) from the left to the right.

Answers

Answer:

The author claims that humans are not meant to visit Antarctica by giving details to it natural habitat conditions that keeps man away from the continent.

Explanation:

The Last Wilderness Preserve is an article written by Kendra Washington. The author begins with telling that how humankind have exploited the natural habitat through littering, pollution, and interference.

Textual evidence:

"Antarctica is the coldest and windiest continent with the least drinkable water. Few plants can grow  and farming is likely impossible. Additionally, Antarctica is surrounded by three oceans and far away from  inhabited lands."

"Tere is nothing welcoming about Antarctica, and we may consider this nature’s way of  keeping humans at a safe distance."

H. Montgomery The King's Order In 1763, the war with the French ended with the English gaining possession of the whole of America from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mississippi River. This part of America was ruled by George the Third, King of England, who was now determined to send over more guards but wanted the people in the 13.colonies in America to pay the cost of keeping these guards. However, people were not willing to do this because they felt that they were able to protect themselves without help of any kind. Then the king said, "If the Americans will not give the money, I will take it from them-for pay it they must and shall." This was more than the king would have dared say about England; for there, if he wanted money to spend, he had to ask the people for it, and they coul give it or not as they thought best. The Americans sald, We have the same rights as our brothers In England, and the king cannot force us to give a single copper against our will. If he tries to take it from us, we will fight" The "Boston Tea Party However, George the Third did not really know the Americans, and he did not think that they meant what they said. He tried to make them pay the money, but they would not and from Maine to Georgia, all the people were of one mind. Then the king thought of an alternate plan and arranged for shiploads of tea to be sent over to New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Charleston. He ordered, "If the tea should be landed and sold, then every man who bought a pound of it would have to pay six cents more than the regular price." That six cents was a tax, which the people refused to pay. When the tea reached New York, the citizens sent it back again to England. They did the same thing at Philadelphla. At Charleston, they let it be landed, but it was stored in damp cellars. People would not buy any of it anymore, so It all rotted and spoiled. In Boston, they had a grand "tea party." A number of men dressed themselves up like Native Americans, went on board the tea ships at night broke open all the chests, and emptied the tea Into the harbor.
