Grandfather taught us the prayers they would say for the com harvest each year. As he talked, he rattled a few dried kernels in one of his wrinkled hands. I tried to picture those hands sowing seeds long ago, when Grandfather and the other Wampanoag people lived in Massachusetts. Corn
was a staple in the Wampanoag community. It was planted together with beans, which used the strong cornstalks to support their growth, and squash, whose leafy vines kept the soil from drying out. A single com seed could produce several hundred new ones. Which of the following descriptions best explains how the historical passage might enhance a reader's understanding of the personal narrative? A The historical passage provides background information to explain why the Wampanoag were once hunter-gatherers. B. The historical passage connects the personal experience of planting and harvesting corn with technical information about farming C. The historical passage creates a vivid, sensory explanation to illustrate the grandfather's more factual story OD. The historical passage reveals that because of modem technology, the Wampanoag no longer need to pray for good harvests

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The option which best explains how the historical passage might enhance a reader's understanding of the personal narrative is:

B. The historical passage connects the personal experience of planting and harvesting corn with technical information about farming.

Explanation:

We can easily eliminate option A because the passage does not show evidence of why the Wampanoag were once hunter-gatherers. Quite the opposite, instead of gathering they are farming in the passage.

Letter C claims that the story told by the grandfather is more factual. Looking this passage up online, I found the previous lines. The grandfather is actually telling a sort of fantastic story involving Mother Earth and the prairie rabbit. We can also eliminate this option.

Letter D claims that the passage is about modern technology and how it changed the Wampanoag's relationship with their harvest. However, the passage does not mention technology at all.

The best option then seems to be letter B. While the grandfather is talking about his experience with planting and farming, the narrator is describing it in more technical details: the types of crops that were sowed together and why.

Read the excerpt from Neil deGrasse Tyson’s “Death by Black Hole.”

If you stumbled upon a black hole and found yourself falling feet-first toward its center, then as you got closer, the black hole’s force of gravity would grow astronomically. Curiously, you would not feel this force at all because, like anything in free fall, you are weightless. What you do feel, however, is something far more sinister. While you fall, the black hole’s force of gravity at your two feet, they being closer to the black hole’s center, accelerates them faster than does the weaker force of gravity at your head. The difference between the two is known officially as the tidal force, which grows precipitously as you draw nearer to the black hole’s center. For Earth, and for most cosmic places, the tidal force across the length of your body is minuscule and goes unnoticed. But in your feet-first fall toward a black hole the tidal forces are all you notice.

Which sentence from the excerpt best supports the idea that falling into a black hole would be excruciatingly painful?
Curiously, you would not feel this force at all because, like anything in free fall, you are weightless.
What you do feel, however, is something far more sinister.

Answers

B. What you do feel, however, is something far more sinister.

edge 2021

The sentence "What you do feel, however, is something far more sinister" supports the claim about falling into a black hole being very painful.

Why does this sentence justify the claim?Because it shows that falling into a black hole is a bad thing.Because it shows that the sensation of falling into the black hole is not pleasant.

The author uses the word "sinister" when referring to the feeling of falling into a black hole. These words reinforce the idea that something very negative, scary, and bad is felt by anyone who falls into a black hole.

lovers' deaths? *

Answers

Answer:

1)the feuding families

2) juliets parents

Explanation:

1)you could say that the families longstanding feud was the reason the lovers couldnt be together in the first place and acted as a catalyst to all the disastrous events that followed. If the families had put their feud aside the couple could have married and so the whole thing of juliet faking her death and then romeo killing himself blah blah wouldnt have happened.

2) both juliets parents were incredibly overbearing and her dad was pushing her to marry paris so naturally she couldn't tell him about her wanting to marry romeo. but juliets mother was always distant from her daughter and so if their relationship wasn't as strained perhaps juliet could have discussed her desire to marry romeo with her mother and the families could have possible come to some agreement to allow the lovers to be together and so they wouldnt have died trying to elope

How are cultural stereotypes of Native Americans in cartoons and movies harmful?

Answers

Answer:

Today there are numerous stereotypes regarding Native Americans that are maintained from the past, and that have been consolidated through the mass media, especially film and television. Thus, for example, natives are shown as uneducated people, who practically do not know the language and even have slow reasoning. In addition, their scant clothing and almost ridiculous ornaments seem more like a costume than a traditional dress. Lastly, these people are often portrayed as less prone to work, lazy, and quarrelsome.

All these stereotypes have damaged the image of the natives in America, and have contributed to the discrimination that they suffer daily at the hands of the majority western society of the country.

Nanny is described as having a “head and face [that] looked like the standing roots of some old tree that had been torn away by storm. Foundation of ancient power that no longer mattered,” and that the “leaves...had wilted down” and her vision of marriage “was desecrating the pear tree” for Janie.

Topic:

You will support your paper by citing with evidence from credible sources. At least four sources are required.

Your topic is to identify a significant change related to your major field of study, identify the cause of the change, the effects of the change, and the implications for the future due to the change.

Have you left out some of the sources you have already?
Are there flaws in the argument that require you to adjust your thesis?
Do you have clear and specific topic sentences for each paragraph?
Do the topic sentences relate to the thesis clearly?

Section III: Part 3 of the three section thesis
Followed by 1-2 pages (4-5 paragraphs) on the sub topic
