Read the passage from a speech by President Barack Obama.

Good afternoon. Mr. Secretary General; Your Excellencies, we are here because, right now, in crowded camps and cities around the world, there are families—from Darfur in Chad, Palestinians in Lebanon, Afghans in Pakistan, Colombians in Ecuador—who’ve endured years—in some cases, decades—as refugees, surviving on rations and aid, and who dream of someday, somehow, having a home of their own.

We’re here because, right now, there are young girls . . . like my daughters . . . who are just as precious and just as gifted—like the 16-year-old refugee from Myanmar that I met in Malaysia—who’ve suffered unspeakable abuse . . . girls who pray at night that someone might rescue them from their torment.

What evidence does President Obama use to support the claim that the child-refugee problem needs to be addressed and fixed? Select two options.

Obama uses empirical evidence, since he names the specific countries where refugees live.
Obama uses empirical evidence, since he uses a verifiable source in the refugee from Myanmar.
Obama uses anecdotal evidence, when he compares the young refugees to his own gifted daughters.
Obama uses logical evidence, since it is common sense that most young girls are gifted.
Obama uses anecdotal evidence, when he shares stories about his visits to war-torn countries.
Obama uses anecdotal evidence, when he shares a personal experience he has had with a refugee

Answers

Answer 1

The two evidence types that President Obama used to support his claim were:

Obama uses anecdotal evidence, when he compares the young refugees to his own gifted daughters.Obama uses anecdotal evidence, when he shares a personal experience he has had with a refugee.

What evidence did Obama use?

Obama used anecdotal evidence to support his points on the child-refugee problem when he likened refugees to his own daughters.

He also talked about he had met a refugee and saw some struggles. These pieces of evidence are anecdotal because they represent true incidents that Obama has gone through.

Read the paragraph.
Enkidu, who had met the beast, warned Gilgamesh of the dangers involved, explaining that Gilgamesh did not "know the horror that lurks ahead." Upon seeing the beast Humbaba, Gilgamesh himself became seized with dread and terror. However, despite Enkidu’s warning and his own temporary paralysis upon seeing Humbaba, Gilgamesh charged at Humbaba with his axe. He demonstrated that he was able to summon the bravery necessary to overcome his fear and attack the frightening beast.
Which sentence should be added at the beginning of this paragraph to introduce the writer’s point?

A. Even though he had seen Humbaba before, Enkidu was just as horified by the monster's appearance as Gilgamesh was.
B. Gilgamesh demonstrated his abilities as an effective and compelling leader and speaker on several occasions.
C. Two men embarked on a long and dangerous journey to the Cedar Forest in hopes of defeating the beast Humbaba.
D. Gilgamesh proved his bravery when he engaged in battle with a strong and fierce antagonist *

“ Briefly It Enters, and Briefly Speaks,” by Jane Kenyon
“ Possum Crossing,” by Nikki Giovanni
“ A Boy Juggling a Soccer Ball,” by Christopher Merrill
“ Still I Rise,” by Maya Angelou

Answers

I pick, "I Wish I Could Remember" by Christina Rossetti

Since I spent a lot of my time on this, don't be afraid to give me a "Thanks" and perhaps a "Brainliest" if it helps!

Title: I think the poem is about Rossetti's memories of when she was a child. She might have wished to go back in time and relive those memories where this was no work, no school, and no trouble in life. Perhaps just a happy life where you are completely oblivious of horrible things such as death and disease.

Paraphrase:

I wish I could recall that first day

That first hour, that first moment of your meeting me

Whether bright or dim the season, it might be

Summer or Winter for aught I know

It slipped away so unrecorded

So blind was I to see and foresee

So dull to mark the budding of my tree

That would not blossom for many a May.

If only I could remember it, such

Such a day of days, I let it pass by 

As if it were a thaw of bygone snow

It seemed to mean so little, yet it seemed to mean so much; 

If only I could recall that touch, 

That first touch of hand in hand – Did one but know!

Connotation: The poem's figurative meaning is the poet wishes to recall the day she first met the man she would later fall in love with. She then shifts to the season in which that first meeting took place. She has no idea whether the season was pleasant or not. It can be implied that the author misses the day she first met the man she would fall in love with. She misses him dearly and would do many things to get the man back. I know this because of the figurative details the author puts into her poem. For example, "That first hour, that first moment of your meeting me". As well as, "Whether bright or dim the season, it might be summer or Winter for aught I know. It slipped away so unrecorded"

Attitude: The tone of the story is discouraged. A very busy mind is at work. Some words in the poem that highlight this mood are, "slipped away", "bygone snow", "recall" and "if only".

Shifts: Changes in the poem include, "That first touch of hand in hand – Did one but know!" This sentence walks us through the narrator's eyes and pictures the first day rather than the rest of the story which is trying to recall the first day.

Title: After I have read the poem, the title means hoping to remember a time where the narrator met a man that she would fall in love with.

Theme: A phrase that describes the message is, "It seemed to mean so little, yet it seemed to mean so much;". This sentence can grab the reader and let them know that every moment you have to spend with someone no matter how little it may seem, it may really mean the world one day.

Keller's The Story of My Life?
Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed
as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great
ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore
with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with
beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship
before my education began, only I was without compass or
sounding-line, and had no way of knowing how near the
harbour was. "Light! give me light!" was the wordless cry of
my soul, and the light of love shone on me in that very
hour.
O A. Helen is angry that her mother and teacher aren't helping her to
communicate.
O B. Helen is sad that her teacher is leaving and will be unable to
communicate with her.
OC. Helen is scared that she will never be able to communicate with
her family again
O D. Helen is frustrated by the challenges associated with learning to
communicate.

Answers

Answer:

The sentence that best states the conflict revealed in this passage is:

D. Helen is frustrated by the challenges associated with learning to communicate.

Explanation:

Born in 1880, Helen Keller was both blind and deaf. In her autobiography "The Story of My Life," Keller reveals details of her childhood, focusing especially on her education.

In the passage we are analyzing here, Keller is absolutely frustrated. We learn through our senses, but she has been deprived of two of them - as a matter of fact, two very important ones. Don't we usually learn by either watching someone do something or by listening to them explain something to us? How can Helen learn, then? That is why she compares herself to the ship that is amid a dense white fog, with no compass, nothing to guide her. Anne Sullivan will turn out to be Helen's compass. Sullivan is hired to teach Helen. Patiently and slowly, she will show Helen the world in a very special way.

WHICH PRESENTS THE BEST REBUTTAL TO THE COUNTERCLAIM "BULLYING IS NOT THAT IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT DOES NOT AFFECT ME PERSONALLY

Answers

This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find them online. They are the following:

A. The best way to prevent bullying is to keep students off of social media outside of school hours.

B. Schools should have a strong support system in place to help some students cope with the emotional pressures they experience from parents, teachers, and peers.

C. Existing feelings of low self-esteem can make a student more vulnerable to bullying.

D. A number of studies has shown that all students have moments of self-doubt and insecurity, but some students may have a more difficult time managing those feelings.

Answer:

The best rebuttal to the counterclaim is:

D. A number of studies has shown that all students have moments of self-doubt and insecurity, but some students may have a more difficult time managing those feelings.

Explanation:

A counterclaim is an idea that opposes the claim of an essay or a speech, for example. In this case, the counterclaim is "Bullying is not that important because it does not affect me personally." A rebuttal is an answer to a counterclaim, opposing it. In this instance, the best one is letter D. No one is absolutely immune to bullying and its effects. As studies show, everyone eventually feels insecure and, in some cases, such feeling is harder to manage. Therefore, bullying is important, since it has the power to affect everyone.
