a.skimming

c.careful reading​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. b. skimming

2. b. scanning

3. a. skimming

4. b. scan

5. a. skimming

6. c. carefully read

Explanation:

Skimming and scanning are reading techniques we use to quickly find the information we need within a piece of writing. We use skimming for general information. For example, if we need to find out what an entire paragraph is about in a short time, we will use skimming. Scanning is used for specific details. If we needed to find a particular piece of information in the same paragraph, we would scan the paragraph.

However, there are instances when these techniques can't or shouldn't be used. Sometimes, we need to read a text carefully. For example, students should pay attention to all information their tests contain. If they miss some details, they could choose the wrong answers.

Answer:

How strongly two things are being compared

Explanation:

Both simile and metaphor are figures of speech used to compare two different, unrelated, things that share some kind of quality. However, there is a difference. The simile uses words like and as, while the metaphor omits them, stating that something is something else. This is why we can say that the metaphor is a stronger type of comparison.

One last change to movies to think about is production costs. Some studios spend hundreds of millions of dollars to create a film, but with a good enough film and a worldwide audience, they can also make billions of dollars in return.

How does Lee's work reflect a plantation heritage?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

Lee's work reflects a plantation heritage in that he describes in his book the misadventures of black people in southern plantations and all the suffering and pain of African American slaves while living and working in the southern plantations, specifically , in Alabama, and the way this behavior was inherited and lived by the white society of the time.

We are talking about renowned author Harper Lee, who is the author of the influential book "To Kill a Mockingbird."

This novel was published in 1960 and has become a classic of American literature for its approach to racial inequality.

Should all individuals pay the same tax rate why or why not

Answers

All individuals should not pay the same tax rate because every individual Heyyaz a different amount of property and it has a different income. It would be unfair for someone who has less income and less property to get the same amount of tax rate as someone who has more property and a bigger income. Also the government will not make enough money if they have to wait for people a lesser income to pay the taxes. So in conclusion everyone should get a different tax rate depending on how much property and their final income of the year so it will be fair for everyone and don’t want to get too much tax or too little.

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

All individuals should not pay the same tax rate because income is a factor. If an individual is making 15$ per hour compared to someone making 50$ an hour, the individuals that make more should pay more because they can afford it better. Ex: Kate is making 15$ an hour and works a 10 hour shift, 4 days a week, in total without tax she makes 600 per week. That's not a whole lot, and lets just say everybody has to pay 90$ of tax. 90 dollars would be taken out of her paycheck, and lets see, she has to pay 100 dollars for groceries, 100 dollars for rent, and 100 dollars goes towards retirement she would only have 210 dollars for bills and all her other financial needs. But lets say Maya is making  50 dollars an hour and is working a 10 hour shift 4 times a week, she is making 2000$ a week, she has the same bills as Kate, she has 1,710$ left over for bills and other financial needs, she is able to get by, Kate is just barely getting by. Kate should pay less and Maya should pay more.
