Compare the bold sections of both sentences and then answer the question that follows: Original: My father disliked sleet, but my father disliked hail more. Revised: My father disliked sleet, but he hated hail more. What was done to the bolded section to improve the sentence?
Answer:
Repetitive words were replaced with synonyms and pronouns.
Explanation:
In the original sentence, there is a repetition of the phrase "my father disliked" which makes it a case of repetition. The revised version replaces the repetition with a pronoun "he" and also replaced the verb "disliked" with a synonym "hated".
This correction makes the sentence better and the improvement gave the sentence a much clearer picture.
Thus, the correct answer is the last/ fourth option.

What argument does Alexander Hamilton make in his letter to John Jay?
Answer:
To John Jay
[Middlebrook, New Jersey, March 14, 1779]
Dear Sir,
Col Laurens, who will have the honor of delivering you this letter, is on his way to South Carolina, on a project, which I think, in the present situation of affairs there, is a very good one and deserves every kind of support and encouragement. This is to raise two three or four batalions of negroes; with the assistance of the government of that state, by contributions from the owners in proportion to the number they possess. If you should think proper to enter upon the subject with him, he will give you a detail of his plan. He wishes to have it recommended by Congress to the state; and, as an inducement, that they would engage to take those batalions into Continental pay.
It appears to me, that an expedient of this kind, in the present state of Southern affairs, is the most rational, that can be adopted, and promises very important advantages. Indeed, I hardly see how a sufficient force can be collected in that quarter without it; and the enemy's operations there are growing infinitely serious and formidable. I have not the least doubt, that the negroes will make very excellent soldiers, with proper management; and I will venture to pronounce, that they cannot be put in better hands than those of Mr. Laurens. He has all the zeal, intelligence, enterprise, and every other qualification requisite to succeed in such an undertaking. It is a maxim with some great military judges, that with sensible officers soldiers can hardly be too stupid; and on this principle it is thought that the Russians would make the best troops in the world, if they were under other officers than their own. The King of Prussia is among the number who maintain this doctrine and has a very emphatical saying on the occasion, which I do not exactly recollect. I mention this, because I frequently hear it objected to the scheme of embodying negroes that they are too stupid to make soldiers. This is so far from appearing to me a valid objection that I think their want of cultivation (for their natural faculties are probably as good as ours) joined to that habit of subordination which they acquire from a life of servitude, will make them sooner became soldiers than our White inhabitants. Let officers be men of sense and sentiment, and the nearer the soldiers approach to machines perhaps the better.
I foresee that this project will have to combat much opposition from prejudice and self-interest. The contempt we have been taught to entertain for the blacks, makes us fancy many things that are founded neither in reason nor experience; and an unwillingness to part with property of so valuable a kind will furnish a thousand arguments to show the impracticability or pernicious tendency of a scheme which requires such a sacrifice. But it should be considered, that if we do not make use of them in this way, the enemy probably will; and that the best way to counteract the temptations they will hold out will be to offer them ourselves. An essential part of the plan is to give them their freedom with their muskets. This will secure their fidelity, animate their courage, and I believe will have a good influence upon those who remain, by opening a door to their emancipation. This circumstance, I confess, has no small weight in inducing me to wish the success of the project; for the dictates of humanity and true policy equally interest me in favour of this unfortunate class of men.
When I am on the subject of Southern affairs, you will excuse the liberty I take, in saying, that I do not think measures sufficiently vigorous are persuing for our defence in that quarter. Except the few regular troops of South Carolina, we seem to be relying wholly on the militia of that and the two neighbouring states. These will soon grow impatient of service and leave our affairs in a very miserable situation. No considerable force can be uniformly kept up by militia—to say nothing of many obvious and well known inconveniences, that attend this kind of troops. I would beg leave to suggest, Sir, that no time ought to be lost in making a draft of militia to serve a twelve month from the States of North and South Carolina and Virginia. But South Carolina being very weak in her population of whites may be excused from the draft on condition of furnishing the black batalions. The two others may furnish about 3,500 men and be exempted on that account from sending any succours to this army. The states to the Northward of Virginia will be fully able to give competent supplies to the army here; and it will require all the force and exertions of the three states I have mentioned to withstand the storm which has arisen and is increasing in the South.
The troops drafted must be thrown into batalions and officered in the best manner we can. The supernumerary officers may be made use of as far as they will go.

Write a multiparagraph essay of at least five hundred words that answers the question: How do Crane and Lincoln treat the subject of the Civil War in each of their respective texts?
Construct a comparison outline to organize your ideas. Incorporate these ideas into your writing.
Submit your outline and the final draft of your essay. Your essay should be at least 500 words in length.
The idea that war is an energizing, sentimental undertaking brimming with brilliance and courage has existed for quite a long time and proceeds somewhat today. 100 years back, notwithstanding, Stephen Crane set out to demolish these fantasies through his novel The Red Identification of Boldness, which follows the encounters of a youthful trooper in the American Common War. Crane shows the real essence of battle by differentiating Henry Fleming's sentimental desires with the truth that he experiences.
This differentiation between sentimental vision and cold reality can be seen right off the bat in the novel, with Henry's takeoff from home. Headed to a "delayed rapture of fervor" by the cheering group, Henry enrolls in the military and bids farewell to his mom with a "light of energy and anticipation in his eyes". He foresees a sentimental, nostalgic farewell suggestive of Simple occasions and even goes similarly as getting ready comments ahead of time which he wants to use "with contacting impact" to make "a wonderful scene."
Be that as it may, Crane presents a more practical view. At the updates on Henry's enrollment, his mom essentially says "The Master's will be done" and keeps draining the bovine, having recently asked Henry not to be "a numb-skull" by enrolling. She at that point annihilates his expectations by offering reasonable, useful exhortation in her farewell discourse. Her farewell is so unique in relation to what Henry expects that he is aggravated and "fretful under the trial" of the discourse.

Topic #3: Should random drug testing of athletes be allowed in
schools?
Key points to help you:
-Playing sports is a privilege, athletes should be help to higher
standards
-If you are under 18, almost all drugs are illegal!
-Does a drug test violate your privacy?
Answer:
Hope the following helps!
Explanation:
I think that although teenageers should have their freedom they should also be tested for drugs. Playing sports is a privilege for many people and if they are using it for the wrong reason they should should give their place to others. As one knows most drugs for kids under 18 are illegal therefore they should not be participating with any of them. I think that a drug test does not violate ones privacy because they do it for the kids own protection and health.

At first I dreaded going to sixth grade camp. I was sure the food would be poisonous, I would freeze to death in my sleeping bag, and the other kids in my cabin would never talk to me. But was I wrong! In fact, it was the best week ever! I went horseback riding and participated in a ropes activity with a zip line course. After the course, I climbed to the top of a pole using only ropes and carabiner clips, and then I rappelled off the top. I even made a new best friend. Oh, by the way, the food was delicious. It tasted better than my mom's! (But don't tell her.)
