Reading a printed book is better for you than reading a book on an e-reader. First, reading printed books is better for your eye health than reading books on e-readers. Looking at screens for too long can cause eye fatigue, blurred vision, and eye irritation. Since reading is so important, most people learn to read when they are very young. Reading printed books can also help you feel more relaxed and get better sleep than reading books on an e-reader can. Finally, studies have shown that people remember more of what they read when looking at printed pages, helping them learn more. For all of these reasons, printed books are the superior choice for reading.

This text talks about why reading is important and later goes on to talk about benefits to reading in printed books. This sentence is placed in the middle of the sentences talking about why reading from printed books is important and therefore does not strengthen the argument.

Write a short expository essay of at least two hundred words in which you explain the strategies you would use to figure out the meaning of a new word. Use at least three different strategies

Answers

Answer:

Finding definitions of words can never be easy. Although many strategies are known, some may be difficult for people to learn. However, today, I will be listing three of the strategoies. FIrst one is using context clues. This strategy is the most common and most known. To use this strategy, you find the sentence where the undefined word is and examine it. While examining, you look for other words that may indicate to the definition of the unknown word. For example, lets say I don't kn ow the definition of the word "Idyllic" is. The sentence the word is found in is, "It was an idyllic day - sunny, warm, and perfect for a walk in the park." Now we examine. After it says the mysterious word it describes the day. They say it is "sunny, warm, and perfect for a walk in the park", using context clues, the word is now defined. The second strategy is, using the parts of the word. This includes the word's prefix, suffix, and roots. To explain it better, I will include an example. For the example, let us pretend I do not know the meaning of the word "kindness." The word has the suffix "ness" which means the state or quality of something. We know that being kind means good behavior towards someone or something, so if we put two and two together, we get the state or quality of having nice behavior. Now, for the final strategy it will be, the use of reference materials. Students, including I can and could use a dictionary or thesauruses to find the meaning of a word. To put it this way, people use the dictionary, glossary, or thesaurus to find the meaning of a word. To use these books, you look for the specific word. These books are organized in alphabetical order so if I were to be searching for the word "Euphoria", it would be in the section with all the words that begin with the letter "E." This strategy might even be the easiest of them all! Nevertheless, that is three strategies listed.

Hello! Please Help me! This essay is on roll of thunder, hear my cry! What do you think? Please help me and just comment if two people already answered! Tysm!


In the novel Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, Cassie decided to seek revenge on Lillian Jean.

Explain why Cassie wanted revenge and provide reasons why it was or was not a good idea.
Use evidence from the text to support your response. You may also want to include whether or not you would have made the same decision as Cassie.

Suggested Paragraph Structure:

Introduction Paragraph:
Hook/SMURFS, Topic (what happened with Cassie and Lillian Jean), Thesis Statement
Body Paragraph: Reason 1 and Evidence
Body Paragraph: Reason 2 and Evidence
Conclusion Paragraph: Restate thesis. You may also want to include whether or not you would have made the same decision as Cassie. Be creative (SMURFS).

*Check spelling, capitalization, punctuation, etc.
*Use Wow Words and figurative language.
*Use “quotation marks” to cite your evidence.

Have you ever made the not-so-great decision to get revenge on someone? In the book Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, by Mildred D. Taylor, Cassie Logan chose to get revenge on Lillian Jean Simms. Cassie chose to do this because one day Cassie bumped into Lillian Jean and she made her apologize. After she did, Lillian Jean tried to push her off the sidewalk. Since Lillian Jean couldn’t push Cassie off, her father came and pushed Cassie and forced her to apologize again. In my opinion, it was not a good idea to get revenge on Lillian Jean.

The first reason that it was a bad idea to get revenge is that Cassie could be putting her whole family in danger. Charlie Simms (Lillian Jean’s father) would be very angry at the Logans if he discovered his daughter got beat up by Cassie. He definitely would go after them. Cassie’s father also knows this. In chapter 8 he says, “This here's an important decision, Cassie, very
important - I want you to understand that - but I think you can handle it. Now, you listen to me, and you listen good. This thing. if you make the wrong decision and Charlie Simms gets involved, then I get involved and there'll be trouble.” This shows that Cassie’s father knows that if done wrong, Cassie’s revenge could have severe consequences. Also, Big Ma and Cassie’s mother know that something bad could happen from when Cassie’s uncle Hammer tried to go after Charlie Simms. In chapter 6 it states, “Hammer, Cassie's all right,' she cried. ‘Don’t go making unnecessary trouble !” Cassie’s mother says “unnecessary trouble” because she doesn't want anything to happen to Uncle Hammer.

The other reason why it was a bad idea to get revenge is that Lillian Jean could try to get back at Cassie. Lillian Jean might try to fight Cassie again. She was very angry at Cassie while they fought and wanted to hurt her as much as possible. In chapter 8 it states, “she fought as best she could”.
This shows that she wanted to hurt Cassie and could possibly want to try again. She also called Cassie names. Also in chapter 8, the text states, “she, expending her energy in angry, nasty
Name-calling” and “demanded an apology for all the names she had called me”. This shows how rude Lillian Jean was to Cassie and probably will be rude to her again if she tries to get back at her.

In conclusion, It was a very terrible idea for Cassie to get revenge on Lillian Jean in the book Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, by Mildred D. Taylor. If I was Cassie, I would have just left it be, no matter how angry I was. This would probably be the best way to avoid trouble. If you’re thinking about getting revenge on someone, don’t do it! It most likely will not end well.
