Answer:
B. The author's purpose
Explanation:
Answer:
B) the author’s purpose
Explanation:
Read the rough draft of a student’s conclusion to an argumentative editorial.
(1) Year-round schooling would help student achievement. (2) Not so much information would have to be crammed into nine months. (3) Furthermore, the elimination of long breaks, particularly summer break, would significantly reduce "learning loss” and the additional time wasted at the beginning of each academic year to reteach previously learned material. (4) It is clear that year-round schooling helps students learn and retain more. (5) The United States is not the only country to experiment with a year-round school schedule. (6) Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, these people need to open their eyes and see that students in these schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars. (7) It is about time that we replaced our outdated and inefficient school calendars.
Which best revises sentence 6 to create a more appropriate and respectful tone?
A. Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, studies consistently reveal that year-round students score higher on certain assessments than those students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars.
B. Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, this theory is wrong because students in year-round schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than those students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars.
C. Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, they would admit defeat if only they would do their research and find that students in year-round schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than those students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars.
D. Although many still claim that evidence about year-round school and its link to higher achievement is inconclusive, these people need to study their facts and acknowledge that students in year-round schools consistently score higher on certain assessments than those students who attend schools with traditional nine-month calendars.

What two things does Simon do that show his kindness? Book of lord of flies chapter 4
Answer:
He gives piggy meat and he helps him find his glasses.
Explanation:
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.
According to the Sixth Amendment, a jury must
confront witnesses
have a process for obtaining witnesses
have the Assistance of Counsel
come from the area where the crime was committed
Answer: Come from the area where the crime was committed
Explanation:
The Sixth Amendment in this excerpt shows that in addition to having an impartial jury that is made up of the peers of the accused, that jury also had to be from the area the crime was committed.
By area the Amendment means that the jury should be from the same State and District where the crime was committed. This is probably because these are the people most likely to understand the circumstances involved.

Can someone please write my outsiders essay please????
Answer:
Johnny Cade is guilty of manslaughter in the death of Bob Sheldon.
The accused and main character in the S. E. Hinton novel The Outsiders was sent up the river for four years to Collins Bay Penitentiary Thursday during a mock trial at Gananoque Secondary School (GSS). The Trial of Johnny Cade was the highlight of an interdisciplinary study for intermediate students at GSS that involved elements of art, biology, English, drama, and civics.
Cade, a Greaser in the novel, was charged with murdering Sheldon, a Soc, who had tried to drown his friend Pony Boy in a water fountain a key scene in the book.
During the dramatic presentation, played out before a crowded school gymnasium, Grades 7 and 8 students played the roles of Cade, the prosecution team, defence team, sketch artists, detectives, witnesses, judge and jury. The Hinton novel examines the struggle between two rival groups the Greasers, from the wrong side of town, and the Socs, members of the social elite. The Greasers and Socs are sworn enemies; however key characters on both sides in the novel eventually learn the folly of their ways.
The exercise went beyond the novel, in which Cade died before police could capture him and put him on trial.
Teacher Doug Bowlby said the exercise brought the book alive for students, and connected them with the story at a deeper level because they were able to participate in areas that interested them. Drama students played the main characters in the trial. Students interested in science analyzed evidence from the crime scene and art students acted as sketch artists. Students from English class covered the events leading up to the trial, and the event itself, as reporters for rival newspapers.
The teachers and students worked hard to bring an element of realism to the dramatic presentation. Evidence was presented with audio visual displays from a crime scene set up with the help of Gananoque Police, who collected blood samples, boot prints and other evidence and worked with students at the school science labs to analyze it. The audience was also brought into the game by showing their support or opposition to Cade on a Twitter feed. The prosecution and defence were prepared for the exercise by a criminal defence lawyer from Kingston.
The 12-person jury in the case opted against a conviction for murder after Cade, played by Grade 7 student Gabby Sebrango, testified he and Pony Boy were outnumbered and he stabbed Sheldon fearing Sheldon and his group of thugs would drown his friend. However, evidence also showed that Cade did nothing to help a dying Sheldon after his friends had fled and the danger was gone. Instead, he let the Soc struggle for 200 yards as he bled out.
Sebrango said the exercise gave students a much greater appreciation for the novel than a traditional English literature exercise.
"I liked this much better, she said. It's hands-on learning. When reading a book and writing down responses it can get kind of boring. When something is boring it leaves my head because you just don't want to think about it anymore. This is more exciting so it sticks in your head.
And going into character makes you understand the events in the book more, and be able to see the other sides of the story. It makes you have a new perspective on the entire book."
Bowlby said teachers were hoping for such connections. By allowing students to participate in roles based on their strengths teachers knew students learning would increase.
"We think this is going to build their confidence, said Bowlby of students who participated. When they sit back later in life they will be able to say they did well in school, they did stuff that was fun and hopefully have nice memories of school because of this project."
Teachers at the school filmed the process and will create a documentary to show to other schools interested in organizing a similar exercise.
