Bryan is writing a research paper on women in the military. At the library, he checks out a book entitled You're in the Army Now: The History of Women in the Armed Forces. The book is written by Professor Jack Taylor, a military expert who teaches history at Boston University. It was published in 2010. Bryan also interviews U.S. Air Force Major Barbara Wilson, whom Bryan has know for many years. What is one way for Bryan to decide which source is more credible? A. Major Wilson is more credible because she is Bryan's friend. B. The book was written by a professor, so it is more credible. C. Both sources would be beneficial to Bryan's research paper. D. The book Bryan found is very current, so it is more credible.

Answer:

It seems that C. Both sources would be beneficial to Bryan's research paper.

Explanation:

Bryan has, in a sense, gotten the best of two worlds. With the book as a source, he has credible information and evidence coming from an expert in the area. Professor jack Taylor has certainly done extensive research and followed academic rules in order to publish his book. Therefore, we can see it as a most valuable source.

On the other hand, with Major Barbara Wilson's interview, Bryan is getting a first-hand account by a woman who is currently serving. She can offer him insights concerning her own and other women's experiences, challenges, feelings, etc. that he may not obtain from the book. This is a less academic source, so to speak, but a more direct one. This source, too, is valuable.

Thus, we can see the both sources would be beneficial to his research paper.

"It was already one in the morning, the rain pattered dionally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out,

implied. Three times Della counted it. One dollar and eighty-seven cents. And the next day would be Christmas.

PLZ PLZ PLZ HELP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST - SHARKS' TEETH
Langston Carter

The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.

We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.

Which sentence from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart" uses an auxiliary verb to express necessity? No doubt I now grew very pale;—but I talked more fluently, and with a heightened voice. Yet the sound increased—and what could I do? It was a low, dull, quick sound—much such a sound as a watch makes when enveloped in cotton. I gasped for breath—and yet the officers heard it not. I talked more quickly—more vehemently; but the noise steadily increased. I arose and argued about trifles, in a high key and with violent gesticulations; but the noise steadily increased. Why would they not be gone? I paced the floor to and fro with heavy strides, as if excited to fury by the observations of the men—but the noise steadily increased. Oh God! what could I do? I foamed—I raved—I swore! I swung the chair upon which I had been sitting, and grated it upon the boards, but the noise arose over all and continually increased. It grew louder—louder—louder! And still the men chatted pleasantly, and smiled. Was it possible they heard not? Almighty God!—no, no! They heard!—they suspected!—they knew!—they were making a mockery of my horror!-this I thought, and this I think. But anything was better than this agony! Anything was more tolerable than this derision! I could bear those hypocritical smiles no longer! I felt that I must scream or die! and now—again!—hark! louder! louder! louder! louder!
