Answer:
primal instinct of savagery that exists within all human beings.
Explanation:
It was my twelfth birthday. Thanks to my over-active imagination, I had convinced myself that my mom was going to get me a new skateboard. I could not contain my excitement. I really needed a new skateboard, and not because I was bored with my old one. My old skateboard was falling apart.
Upon waking up, I ran straight to my mom and asked her to give me my gift. She responded by telling me that I would have to wait until after I got home from school. She went on to say that if she told me what the gift was I would not be able to concentrate on my school work. Those words ensured that I would be so excited about getting my new skateboard that I would be unable to work.
After a whole day of counting down the minutes, I arrived home from school. My mom was nowhere to be found. I called her office but did not get an answer. She did not answer her cell phone either.
Just as my frustration was peaking, my mom pulled into the driveway. She stepped out of the car, asking, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
I excitedly blurted out, "You said I would get my present after school, and it is officially "after school.'"
"Oh, is that all? I assumed that you missed your dear mother," she teased. I later regretted my response. "No, that's not all! It's everything!" When I asked her where my gift was, she pointed at the J.C. Penney bag she held.
She told me, "It's a new suit for you to wear to church."
I muttered in disbelief, "But you said that if you told me about the gift, I would be thinking about it all day long."
My mom responded, "I didn't say you would be thinking about it because it's a great gift."

This is the sentence that you would most likely include in a summary of the story, and it is the most important. For most of the story, the twelve-year-old thinks about a new skateboard, so that's an important detail to include. xD

Explanation:
What is a short-term benefit for a company to regularly keeping wages low?
Employees find high job satisfaction.
Companies can expect a high turn-over.
Employees will become demoralized.
The company can keep costs to a minimum.
Answer:
The company can keep costs to a minimum.
Explanation:
This is the advantage that such a strategy would have for a company in the short-term. A company that regularly keeps wages low is likely to save money initially. However, this strategy is not a successful one in the long term. Such a company would most likely have employees who are unhappy or unsatisfied with their job. It would also lead to a high turn-over due to employees being demoralized.
Which of the following best describes how the narrator describes nature, especially the cold?AThe narrator describes the cold as a pervasive, almost personified force.BThe narrator describes nature constantly changing and unpredictable.CThe narrator describes nature, even the dog, as indifferent to the struggles of the man.DThe narrator describes the cold as merely an element that can be easily conquered by men and fire.
This question is in reference to the short story "To Build a Fire", by Jack London.
Answer:
The options best suited for the way the narrator describes nature and the cold is:
C. The narrator describes nature, even the dog, as indifferent to the struggles of the man.
Explanation:
"To Build a Fire" is a short story by author Jack London in which a man learns a most valuable lesson at a very high cost. The main character ignores how powerful nature is, thinking too much of his own skills. He is new to the winter at the Yukon region and naive enough to forget his own weaknesses as a human being.
The narrator in the story makes it clear that nature is not concerned with man. Nature has no mind, it simply is, in a powerful manner. It is man who wishes to conquer nature but to no avail. Throughout the story, the man thinks to himself that "it is certainly cold". That's it. Simply put, no exaggeration, no personification.
The dog that accompanies the man, for instance, is merely confused by the man's lack of fear. The dog understands danger better than the man. Notice that it is indifferent toward this man. What concerns it is survival. The same goes for nature. It is relentless, unstoppable. The cold is still cold, even if it kills someone:
Never in the dog’s experience had it known a man to sit like that in the snow and make no fire. As the evening grew darker, its eager longing for the fire mastered it. [...] Later, the dog howled loudly. And still later it moved close to the man and caught the smell of death. This made the animal back away. A little longer it delayed, howling under the stars that leaped and danced and shone brightly in the cold sky. Then it turned and ran along the trail toward the camp it knew, where there were the other food providers and fire providers.

What role do primaries play in the local, state, and federal
Answer:
Primary elections or often just primaries, are the process by which voters can indicate their preference for their party's candidate, or a candidate in general, in an upcoming general election, local election, or by-election. Depending on the country and administrative divisions within the country, voters might consist of the general public in what is called an open primary, or solely the members of a political party in what is called a closed primary. In addition to these, there are other variants on primaries (which are discussed below) that are used by many countries holding elections throughout the world.
The origins of primary elections can be traced to the progressive movement in the United States, which aimed to take the power of candidate nomination from party leaders to the people.[1] However, political parties control the method of nomination of candidates for office in the name of the party, and other methods of selecting candidates include caucuses, conventions, and nomination meetings.

Answer:
The troposphere extends from Earth’s surface to an average of 12 km (7 miles). As you move upward, air pressure decreases. The temperature generally decreases with increasing height up to the tropopause. The tropopause marks the transition into the stratosphere. Winds increase with height up the jet stream. The interaction of solar energy and wind cause the upper layer of the troposphere to have a low moisture content. Convection occurs in the troposphere due to the presence of water in the air as well as energy transfer from radiation and weather.
Explanation:
I've found these answers by looking at the word and its makeup (what kind of word it is, where it sounds like it would be found in the paragraph) as well as the hints given in the text, with minimal help from the internet. Hope these help!

Please select the best answer from the choices provided

The correct answer is C. Drew Barrymore was born exactly 100 years after her great-grandfather, Maurice, immigrated to America.
Explanation:
The Barrymore family is an important family in the field of acting, which includes famous actors such as John Drew Barrymore, Diana Blanche Barrymore, and Drew Barrymore. In the case of Drew Barrymore, she is one of the youngest actresses of this family and was born on 1975. Besides this, Drew Barrymore is the daughter of John Drew Barrymore who was born in 1932, the granddaughter of John Barrymore who was born in 1882 and the great-granddaughter of Maurice Barrymore who was born in 1849 and migrated to the United States in 1874. This means Drew Barrymore was born 101 years after her great-grandfather Maurice immigrated to America, and therefore it is false she was born exactly 100 years after this event.
Answer:
C.) Drew Barrymore was born exactly 100 years after her great-grandfather, Maurice, immigrated to America.

Answer:
1. I went to the movies with them ( Lydia and Kiomi).
2. Evita was impressed by his (Michael's) dancing.
3. Her (Lauren's) favorite author is Mark Twain.
4. They (Jamal and Carl) were curious about the building's history.
Explanation:
Pronouns are those words that are used to replace the nouns in the sentence.
1. I went to the movies with Lydia and Kiomi.
The perfect pronoun for "Lydia and Kiomi" will be them for they are two which means it should be a plural form of the pronoun.
2. Evita was impressed by Michael's dancing. The pronoun for "Michael" is "his" as it denotes the possessive nature of the dancing.
3. Lauren's favorite author is Mark Twain. The pronoun for "Lauren" will be "her" for it is a singular form of possession.
4. Jamal and Carl were curious about the building's history. "Jamal and Carl" are two persons and thus, their pronoun will be "they".
