Explanation:

You want your persuasive speech to be your best speech of the semester. In order to make it great, you tell the students that sports' scholarships won't be honored next year. You did hear that there was some issue with scholarships, and that it wasn't looking good for the students. You also know that the athletic program isn't all that popular. Your speech persuades your classmates (most of whom are volleyball players) to demand meetings with their financial aid advisor. You offer to help and distribute a sign-up sheet to pass along to financial aid. What is the problem in this scenario

I wrote this song. rate 1-10. Pouring rain (written by Alaska) Once upon a time, in a messed up world, was a lil girl with a broken past, Everyday she walked around, Always on the verge of tears, Nobody really noticed, nobody ever cared, (chorus) But she stood proud, She stayed strong, Cause in her heart she believed there was still hope to come, She is just a girl with a dream of a million stars, Come to carry on her gift, As she danced through that pourin' rain Every night before she closed her eyes, She looked up at the northern star, Prayed a wish to make things change, Even though she cried it ain't true, (chorus)

silly Sam is surprising. is it a metaphor, personification, idiom, alliteration, or hyperbole.

Which of these inferences is best supported by the following paragraph? “If then we prefer to meet danger with a light heart but without laborious training, and with a courage which is gained by habit and not enforced by law, are we not greatly the better for it? Since we do not anticipate the pain, although, when the hour comes, we can be as brave as those who never allow themselves to rest; thus our city is equally admirable in peace and in war. For we are lovers of the beautiful in our tastes and our strength lies, in our opinion, not in deliberation and discussion, but that knowledge which is gained by discussion preparatory to action. For we have a peculiar power of thinking before we act, and of acting, too, whereas other men are courageous from ignorance but hesitate upon reflection. And they are surely to be esteemed the bravest spirits who, having the clearest sense both of the pains and pleasures of life, do not on that account shrink from danger. In doing good, again, we are unlike others; we make our friends by conferring, not by receiving favors. Now he who confers a favor is the firmer friend, because he would rather by kindness keep alive the memory of an obligation; but the recipient is colder in his feelings, because he knows that in requiting another’s generosity he will not be winning gratitude but only paying a debt. We alone do good to our neighbors not upon a calculation of interest, but in the confidence of freedom and in a frank and fearless spirit. To sum up: I say that Athens is the school of Hellas, and that the individual Athenian in his own person seems to have the power of adapting himself to the most varied forms of action with the utmost versatility and grace. This is no passing and idle word, but truth and fact; and the assertion is verified by the position to which these qualities have raised the state. For in the hour of trial Athens alone among her contemporaries is superior to the report of her. No enemy who comes against her is indignant at the reverses which he sustains at the hands of such a city; no subject complains that his masters are unworthy of him. And we shall assuredly not be without witnesses; there are mighty monuments of our power which will make us the wonder of this and of succeeding ages; we shall not need the praises of Homer or of any other panegyrist whose poetry may please for the moment, although his representation of the facts will not bear the light of day. For we have compelled every land and every sea to open a path for our valor, and have everywhere planted eternal memorials of our friendship and of our enmity. Such is the city for whose sake these men nobly fought and died; they could not bear the thought that she might be taken from them; and every one of us who survive should gladly toil on her behalf.” Question 5 options: a) Grief has deranged Pericles beyond reason. b) Pericles fears that the dead have been sacrificed in vain. c) Pericles believes that Athenians play too hard and work too little. d) Pericles thinks Athens is powerful because of its intellectual freedom and motivation.

Passage 1
"Big data" is becoming a buzz word of the 21st century. Technically, big data refers to a data set that is too large to analyze. Colloquially, big data refers to the ever-increasing amount of personal information that is collected by computers. Computers monitor and record our online habits, what we buy at the grocery store, our medical and educational records, and even our location. This glut of information has many screaming about privacy concerns. However, sensible protections can be put into place that will unlock the power of big data and positively transform our economy, science, and society.

Passage 2
The casual acceptance of the collection of personal data is one of the most troubling trends of the information age. Proponents of big data argue that the benefits outweigh the potential risks, and that proper regulation of the use of data can adequately control the dangers. However, it is very unlikely that we will be able to identify the right ways to regulate the use of data and to persuade the global community to agree on these regulations. Even if we could, what group or agency has the power to monitor the entirety of the Internet? It is far wiser to take immediate steps to limit the collection of personal data now.

Reread the last sentence of Passage 1:
However, sensible protections can be put into place that will unlock the power of big data and positively transform our economy, science, and society.

which statement about poetry is accurate?

Select the correct answer. My mom is always repeating the same old joke: if your friends all jumped off a cliff, would you jump, too? Of course not. But I get what she means. She's talking about peer pressure. Teenagers like us live with it every day. Pretty much every kid wants to be liked, to have friends, to be popular. No one wants people to think they aren't cool. While peer pressure is tough, giving in to it and getting in trouble is tougher. But teenagers are still learning to make good decisions. Like this one time my friend Harold wanted to take his dad's prized Jeep Grand Cherokee for a drive. Harold was 13, and he'd never driven a car before. But he figured he knew enough about operating a motor vehicle just by watching his parents drive. When his parents were out of town one weekend, Harold invited me and some of our friends over to his house so he could take us for a drive. I said, "Not me," because I knew it was a stupid thing to do. I told him and everybody else what I thought of the idea. (Driving isn't easy. It took my big brother weeks to get the hang of it.) Harold got mad and told me I was being a chicken. I said, "I'd rather be a chicken than get in an accident and have a broken leg." What is the topic of this passage? A. Harold B. being popular C. peer pressure D. learning to drive

Read this excerpt from Federalist Paper No. 1 and answer the question that follows: Federalist Papers: No. 1 General Introduction For the Independent Journal Author: Alexander Hamilton AFTER an unequivocal experience of the inefficiency of the subsisting federal government, you are called upon to deliberate on a new Constitution for the United States of America. The subject speaks its own importance; comprehending in its consequences nothing less than the existence of the UNION, the safety and welfare of the parts of which it is composed, the fate of an empire in many respects the most interesting in the world. It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force. If there be any truth in the remark, the crisis at which we are arrived may with propriety be regarded as the era in which that decision is to be made; and a wrong election of the part we shall act may, in this view, deserve to be considered as the general misfortune of mankind. Based on this quote from the excerpt, with which of these statements would Hamilton agree? It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force. The new Constitution would be important to the entire world. The Constitutional Convention was ignored by governments all over the world. The forces that shape a country are more often mere coincidence. When the Constitution was complete the world's leaders were impressed.

Poe. Then, answer the following question(s)
Which theme, or lesson about life, would the character's thoughts in
this passage best support?
A. the importance of honesty in human relations

The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best
could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge.
You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not
suppose, however, that I gave utterance to a threat. At length
I would be avenged; this was a point definitely settled-but
the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded
the idea of risk. I must not only punish but punish with
impunity.* A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes
its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails
to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong
It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had 1
given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as
was my wont, to smile in his face, and he did not perceive
that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation.**

Read the paragraph. Then answer the question that follows. Perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but were out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chili. This is similar to what happens in a community. One person has to give up a right for the good of the group. Sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. A good example is a public protest. People have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. However, a protest can disrupt traffic or other normal activities. A city must provide extra police protection to keep people safe. Therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest. Government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people. Which of the following statements best describes this paragraph? 1. The paragraph describes the purpose of laws in a community but lacks the use of any text connections. 2. The paragraph describes a simple comparison between a family protest and a community protest. 3. The paragraph uses categories of comparison to judge whether individual or group rights are most important. 4. The paragraph uses the analogy of a family is to choosing dinner as a community is to balancing rights and safety.
