Answer 1

Does this question refers to the article "Do Juvenile Killers Deserve Life Behind Bars?" by Nina Totenberg. Because if so here's something to help with.

In this article, Totenberg discusses whether life in prison is too harsh a punishment for juvenile killers. The author does not take a position on this matter, and instead focuses on presenting arguments that describe both sides of the question. The main purpose of the author is to encourage readers to think about the subject because legislation needs to be passed soon, and this is a difficult question that deserves consideration. She shows how important this matter is when she says:

"Two years ago, the court used the same rationale when it struck down the penalty of life without parole for nonhomicide crimes committed by juveniles. But in Tuesday's cases, the court faces the question of life without parole in homicide cases... the big question before the Supreme Court on Tuesday is whether life without the possibility of parole is itself an unconstitutionally cruel and unusual punishment when it is applied to juveniles."

Sami has just finished her short-story assignment for English class. Read the conclusion to her narrative.

Emma paused and took stock of her day so far. First the family dog had escaped from the backyard. Then her little brother had fallen off his bike and landed on a large ant mound. She herself had broken an expensive mixing bowl in the kitchen, and then locked herself out of the house when she went to throw away the shattered glass. Could anything else possibly go wrong?

Which of the following techniques did Sami use to make this an effective paragraph in her story?
A. sequencing events chronologically
B. including relevant, descriptive details
C. introducing the theme of the narrative
D. encouraging the reader to think about what might happen next

Answers

Answer:

A. sequencing events chronologically.

Explanation:

Note the usage of sequencers. Chronologically typically refers to the usage of terms that show a gradual trend from the beginning to the end.

For example:

"First..."

"Then..."

This orders the story in such a way so that we see why her day has gone so badly, while laying it out in a methodical and easy to understand way.

~

If there can be more tan one answer choice, then the other techniques can technically work as well.

For B, note the last sentence. "Could anything else possibly go wrong?". Essentially this is the point of the question. The relevant, descriptive details come out as "...the family dog had escaped.." , "...her little brother had fallen off his bike...", "She... had broken an... mixing bowl.. and locked herself out the house...". All of these are relevant, as well as descriptive details as why her day as "go[ne] wrong".  However, I feel that A is a better answer, as it eclipse and describes her choice of usage of chronological wording best.

Excerpt from Preparing for PersuasionCarole Jenkins(1) Persuasive writing tries to influence listeners or readers to accept a position on a distinct issue or to act in a certain way. (2) This type of writing may include advertisements, editorials, speeches, letters, and articles in newspapers or magazines. (3) Other types of writing are narrative, descriptive, and expository. (4) Before attempting to gain support of others on a particular issue or course of action, you must have an awareness of the intended audience and a clear understanding of your opinion or position on the issue.Which sentence does not belong in this passage

Answers

Answer:

(3) Other types of writing are narrative, descriptive, and expository.

Explanation:

The third sentence i.e. 'other types of ... expository' do not belong to the content of the given passage as it goes out of the context. The key idea of the passage is to explain persuasive writing, the types of persuasive writing, and how to influence and gain the support of the desired audience group while the third sentence goes completely irrelevant as it talks about other types of writing that make it illogical and go out of the coherence of the passage. Thus, option 3 is the correct answer.

Answers

Answer:

This shows that Steve is a leader and not a follower. He is also confident and brave. He shows these qualities by standing alone and talking in a loud and commanding voice.

Explanation:

He fears for Goodman's safety in the mob  is Steve's perspective about the group approaching Les Goodman's house. Hence, option B is correct.

What is the concept of the passage?

Characters Steve and Les Goodman appear in "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street," a "Twilight Zone" episode.

In the narrative, the residents of Maple Street start to harbor suspicions for one another after a weird object crosses the sky and a power outage follows.  A boy asserts that they were likely being played by aliens and that some aliens may even be living among humans covertly.

His explanation is sufficient to arouse skepticism and reproaches. At some point, a crowd forms to march on Les Goodman's home because they are suspicious of him. Steve attempts to encourage others to be rational because he appears to be the only one who has retained his sanity.

Thus, option B is correct.

Answers

Answer:

A plant needs a few environmental factors to grow. Every plant is different, though. Some need a certain amount of shade and sunlight, and others need different amounts of water. Different plants grow in different climates as well. Genetically, if the seeds planted came from plants that typically grow taller or faster, then the seeds are likely to have the same trait, and vice versa. In addition, plants and crops can thrive from some bugs and animals, but others will just hurt the plant.

Answer:

Explanation:

There are many things that can affect plant growth, like pollution. Pollution is the biggest problem that stops plant growth The car exhaust from our cars get into the air and ruin the oxygen and carbon dioxide. Which can make plants sick. Buildings are another big environmental factor that ruins plant growth. There are approximately 13000 buildings built per day. People are expanding their towns by adding more buildings and roads. Plants die Because people have to cut down trees and walk all over the grass to build these things.
