Instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico during the 1958-59 off season like the rest of the league, Clemente enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve.


Which three sentences correctly paraphrase the sentence?


1. In 1958-59, Clemente joined the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve while other players in the league played winter ball in Puerto Rico (the National Archives).

2. Unlike other players who were playing baseball in Puerto Rico, Clemente chose to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve during the 1958-59 off season (the National Archives).

3. Clemente joined the United States Marine Corps Reserve in the 1958-59 off season, while other players were in Puerto Rico playing winter baseball (the National Archives).

4. Clemente, instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico during the 1958-59 off season like the rest of the league, enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve (the National Archives).

5. During the 1958-59 off season, Clemente joined the United States Marine Corps Reserve instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico like the rest of the league (the National Archives).

6. Clemente enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico during the 1958-59 off season like the rest of the league (the National Archives).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The three sentences that paraphrase correctly the sentence are:

3. Clemente joined the United States Marine Corps Reserve in the 1958-59 off season, while other players were in Puerto Rico playing winter baseball (the National Archives).

2. Unlike other players who were playing baseball in Puerto Rico, Clemente chose to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve during the 1958-59 off season (the National Archives).

1. In 1958-59, Clemente joined the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve while other players in the league played winter ball in Puerto Rico (the National Archives).

Explanation:

The reasons behind this answer are the following: first of all, we can see something very clearly in those three options the meaning of the sentence prevails. While the rest losses it. First, because they don't say that he joined the marine corps in the offseason of 1958-1959. Instead they say that he joined the marine corps for only that period. Second, the fifth option says that the whole league joined the marine corps when they didn't. Thus, this is the correct answer.

Please explain the event that occurred between Elie, Idek, and the French girl (Night)

Answers

Answer:

A French girl helped Elie after he was beaten brutally by Idek

Explanation:

This narrative is from Night by Elie Wiesel.

Eliezer (Elie) was a Jewish prisoner in a concentration camp during the holocaust. Idek was an SS officer and the  Kapo in charge of Eliezer’s work crew. In the narrative, we see Idek is a lustful and selfish man given often (or easily susceptible) to fits of rage. On one of such occasion, while in his natural element, Idek brutally beat Eliezer. After having being thus dealt with by Idek, a French girl (who works next to Eliezer in the warehouse) came to his aid by giving him bread and encouraged Elie to remain strong. Many years later, Eliezer ran into this French girl in Paris where he learned that she was a French Jew who had passed as an Aryan

Explain the irony of Mr. Shiftlet’s statement that he served in the ""Arm Service

Answers

Answer:

Find explanation below.

Explanation:

In the book, 'The Life You Save May Be Truly Yours', written by Flannery O'Connor, the character Tom Shiftlet is described as a tramp-looking old man who wonders on his journey into the home of Mrs Lucynell Crater. One of his features include not having a full arm. An Irony is a literary device  in which the statement made by a character is the opposite of what is expected in reality. The statement has a humorous or amusing effect.

The Arm Services are a part of the military forces concerned largely with the security and protection of a country and its citizens. In this category, we have the; Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard.  

 When Tom Shiftlet made the statement that he served in the Arm Service, one would ordinarily not expect that as he does not have a full arm. It is also amusing to think of how a half armed man could work in the military.

what does the word gringo mean in the sentence below

Answer:

Gringo refers to white people

Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer.” The disease was first detected in England in 1986, though some scientists think the very first cases started at least ten years before. Cows usually eat only grass and other plants, but farmers had been feeding them a meat and bone mixture that made the cows plumper. But somehow, at least one batch of the mixture had become contaminated with what was then an unknown killer: a prion. By 1993, British farmers were reporting up to one thousand new cases of BSE a week. Governments all around the world reacted by increasing testing for the disease and not allowing any cows to be eaten if they were at risk of having the disease. As sheep can also get a prion disease called scrapie, they were tested as well. Farmers were angry that they were losing their livestock, and nobody knew how to protect cows and people from the disease. Consumers were also in a panic when they learned about BSE, and for a very good reason: prions are infectious. If you eat a prion from a "mad cow” or sheep, you are at risk for developing a human version of BSE. The public felt betrayed that their governments had underreacted to the problem or covered it up. Eventually, in 1997, governments began to ban farmers from feeding their livestock high-risk meat and bone mixtures. With that ban, the epidemic quickly peaked, and by 2010 had largely disappeared. Over the years, half a million cows and two hundred people had been killed by prions. What is the main idea of this excerpt? Mad cow disease ended because of government bans on feeding cows certain foods, but people were angry that governments did not act sooner. Mad cow disease was originally caused when governments allowed for cows’ food sources to be contaminated, so people were angry at their leaders. Both farmers and customers had been aware of mad cow disease, but they did not think their governments should have done anything to stop it. Both farmers and customers protested to prevent their governments from interfering with the farming and selling of cows and meat.
