Item 1
Read the excerpt from "An Hour With Abuelo."

I walk fast to room 10, Abuelo's "suite." He is sitting up in his bed writing with a pencil in one of those old-fashioned black hardback notebooks. It has the outline of the island of Puerto Rico on it. I slide into the hard vinyl chair by his bed.



How does this excerpt best develop the setting in the story?

It explains how easy it is for Arturo to get around the nursing home.

It reveals that the nursing home is an uncomfortable place for Arturo.

It shows that Abuelo lives in a large, fancy room.

It illustrates how happy Abuelo is in his nursing home.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It should be "It reveals that the nursing home is an uncomfortable place for Arturo"

Explanation:

Because he says "I slide into the hard vinyl chair by his bed." meaning the chair is hard and probably uncomfortable and no other answer fits

Mud rubbing baseball is mud used to fix the ball in baseball games to give the pitcher better control and a stronger grip on the ball

WHATS THE MAIN IDEA OF THIS PARAGRAPH?
A penny for your thoughts? If it’s a 1943 copper penny, it could be worth as much as fifty thousand dollars. In 1943, most pennies were made out of steel since copper was needed for World War II, so the 1943 copper penny is ultra-rare. Another rarity is the 1955 double die penny. These pennies were mistakenly double stamped, so they have overlapping dates and letters. If it’s uncirculated, it’d easily fetch $25,000 at an auction. Now that’s a pretty penny.

Answers

Answer:

The main idea seems to be to inform about the cost of rare or old pennies.

Explanation:

A majority of the paragraph talks about how rare or old pennies can be worth a lot of money.

Disney Prompt You have created your own exhibit in Disney World, what would it be and why?

Answers

Answer:

This is a rather simple prompt, so I'll make my answer as short as possible:

My exhibit would be about travelling through time, because it would be interesting if you posted fake copies of Einstein's Principles, to make the exhibit more realistic looking as possible, and put in theories of wormholes, and the 'bending of time'. It could be a roller-coaster ride, and that would make it more attractive, in my opinion, of course. Hope this helps!

**Brainiest if correct**

Explain the differences between the two statements below, discussing the types of information that they are providing to the reader.


Statement 1: According to Dr. Lense, “Contact lenses allow you to see more naturally. They move with your eye and do not fog up like glasses do.”


Statement 2: Glasses come in different types: single-vision, bifocals, trifocals, and progressive lenses.




P.S. My computer can't download/visit links, so please keep that out of your answer

Answers

Statement one focuses on contacts while statement two focuses on glasses. The first statement gives a few examples of why contacts could be more beneficial than glasses (don't fog up/move with your eye). The second statement does not go into details about how glasses could be more helpful, but instead describes different types of glasses that exist.
