Glee is a one-hour series, which focuses on an optimistic high school teacher who tries to return the school’s Glee club to its former glory. McKinley High School’s Glee Club used to be a successful musical group, but in the past few years, it has been hit by a series of scandals such as the former teacher who ran the club after having been dismissing for inappropriate contact with a male student. The Glee club consists of a group of students that are considered as school misfits (Murphy, Falchuk and Brennan). They use the club to escape the harsh realities of high school i.e. having to deal with the issue of ‘not being cool.’ In the group, they find strength, acceptance, and their voice as they pursue their dreams.
Glee gives the audience a good representation of handling disabilities and awareness that there is active discrimination against people with disabilities. It uses actors and actresses, who are disabled, in hopes to raise awareness and acceptance that individuals with disabilities are capable of becoming actors and actresses, just like anyone else.
In most television shows, television directors hardly feature characters that have Developmental Disabilities. In the hit show, Glee producers are not afraid or uncomfortable with the disabled community. Lauren Elizabeth Potter is cast to portray Becky Jackson, a cheerleader co-captain. By being featured on the show, it gives the audience awareness of what is like to live with developmental disabilities and the challenges she goes through to be accepted. Also, it helps people to be able to perceive them as people with unique characteristics rather than viewing them as disabled people (Call 1). The directors’ intention is not to make Becky come across as an outcast, but as a girl who simply wants to fit in and be treated just like everyone else in the school. Throughout the show, Becky is treated by her peers and teachers like any other teenager, despite her disabilities. She is put through a rigorous audition process by Sue, to prove that she is capable of making the cheerleading squad. To many viewers, this may seem cruel and an act of bullying. However, it is later revealed that Sue’s intentions were to treat Becky just like everyone else in the squad for this is what Becky wanted. Also, Becky reminds Sue of her sister Jean, who also had Down syndrome.
Furthermore, the show also embraces the fact that others often discriminate people with disability. For instance, Santana is mean to everyone, and she does not spare Becky from her meanness when she found out that she was going to be her co-captain for the Cheerios i.e. the school’s cheerleading team. It shows that a person with Down syndrome can try out for the school’s cheerleading team (one of the school’s most coveted group especially for girls) and be successful i.e. be a co-captain. In one of the scenes in the show when she is arguing with Santana, Santana states that even though she has a condition, it will not save her from the wrath that she normally dishes out (Murphy, Falchuk and Brennan). Nevertheless, Santana’s constant bullying does not threaten Becky, for she responds back with an attitude towards the remark made by Santana. In doing this, the shows successfully proves to its audience that people with Down syndrome are not weak and can defend themselves. The show also portrays the character of Becky as being both sarcastic and funny. When the Cheerio Head Coach Sue states that she needs something to hate, Becky responds by telling her that she should hate toast. Sue responds to Becky’s statement by telling her that her twisted, and imaginative thinking excited her.
By having a character that has a disability on the show, the Glee directors sought of demystifying this group of people. First it gives audience with disabilities hope that anything is possible. In having Becky join in sports, and sharing the experiences of other teenagers, it exemplifies that having Down syndrome does not matter, for they undergo the same challenges in life as other people especially in this stage of life (being a teenager). The show does an excellent job in dealing with disability realistically. The fact that Becky is not giving a free pass because of her disability portrays her as an ordinary teenager.

What is Nick attitude toward the people in East and west egg
Answer:
Nick is somewhat fascinated with the Eastern society and the people that live there in the beginning, however, towards the end of the novel he begins to be almost disgusted by it, Daisy, and Tom.
residents of West Egg are known for being "new money." Though Nick has moved to New York to make money, he isn't considered rich by any means, he definitely doesn't come from old money. So in this sense he fits in better with the West Egg crowd.

3. Which piece of evidence best describes the parent-child relationship during adolescence? *
(10 Points)
"They can never go home to childhood again. They can never return to that simpler, sheltered, and
supportive time." (Paragraph 3)
"They know what they care less about but they don't yet have any good alternatives for investing their
caring elsewhere." (Paragraph 5)
"Yes, but the young person is moving on with life. more inclined to looking forward to the future than to
looking back at the past. (Paragraph 13)
"While the adolescent eagerly anticipates the new. parents can feel bereft of the old." (Paragraph 14)
Answer:
I think the answer would be the first one. "They can never go home to childhood again. They can never return to that simpler, sheltered, and supportive time." (Paragraph 3), because it tells us how the child felt during adolescence and how their relationship was like with their parent. :)
I hope this helped.

Write four to five sentences supporting the inference that the British waited until they were sure the telegram would encourage the US to enter the war. Identify at least two pieces of evidence from the passage, and explain how that evidence leads to the inference.
Answer:
The British waited until they were sure the telegram provoked the US to enter the war.
Admiral William Hall knew that outrage was growing in America over Germany's announcement late in the day of January 31 that the German navy would resume unrestricted submarine warfare. Hall knew that the United States was close enter in the war, so Hall waited until February 24, thinking that Arthur Zimmermann telegram would make the U.S. join the Allied forces. He showed the telegram without revealing that the British deciphered the German codes.
Zimmermann –German Foreign Secretary- had sent a telegram to Count Von Bernstoff, the German ambassador in Washington, with the intention to convince Mexico to support Germany in the war.
Explanation:
Answer:
The details in this passage lead to the inference that the British waited until they were sure the telegram would encourage the US to enter the war. Hall knew that "outrage was growing in America over Germany's announcement late in the day of January 31 that the German navy would resume unrestricted submarine warfare." Hall knew that the US was close to getting involved in the war, but he waited until "February 24, when Hall sensed that the Zimmermann telegram would tip the balance in favor of the U.S. joining the Allied forces." Because Hall waited to share the telegram, a logical inference is that he wanted to be sure that it would be effective when he did.

You have read two texts about the lost colonists of Roanoke, "Have We Found the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island?" and "What Happened to the Lost Colony at Roanoke?" Write an essay examining the different theories presented in each article. Using details from both texts, analyze the evidence each author uses to support his or her claims. Write a well-organized, text-dependent response. Be sure to save time to edit and review your work for complete sentences, spelling, punctuation, and appropriate language.
Answer:
There are different theories about the lost colonists of Roanoke and what happened to them. Even though they disappeared in 1590, the mystery remains unsolved and with ongoing investigations.
In the article "Have We Found the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island?" one of the main theories is that local Native American tribes killed the colonists due to a previous violent encounter with a group of colonists. The violent group was driven out by local tribes, which leads to thinking that they have done something similar to the next group of colonists.
Another theory is that the group died since they were not prepared for the microbes present in America.
The next theory in this article states that the colonists, due to an unknown problem, split up into smaller groups, which was the order that the previous expedition had if problems arose. Besides, it was the only way they could have survived.
Concerning the previous theory, some researchers think that the colonists left Roanoke Island and went to Croatoan Island, which was the only thing that the new group of settlers found written on a tree. Also, as they split into groups, some might have gone to a nearby Native American Town that adopted the colonists.
The article "What Happened to the Lost Colony at Roanoke?" coincides with the theories that the Lost Colony was killed or that they moved and encountered a nearby Native American that adopted them.
The two different theories that this article present is that they might have been abducted by Native Americans, or that they tried to sail back to England. The idea that supports that they sailed is that during this time, a naval war between Spain and England took place, and Queen Elizabeth I called on every available ship for the war. The lost colony may have encountered the Spaniards and had a fatal end.
In conclusion, there are various theories about the lost colony, but nothing has been proved yet. Special equipment and a scientists' large group are still working on this case and trying to place every piece of evidence that they find together to solve the mystery.
Explanation:
The two texts talk about the theories concerning the lost colony, a group of new settlers in Roanoke Island that disappeared in 1590 without leaving any trace.
Both texts talk about the possibility that Native Americans killed the group or that a nearby Native American town adopted them. Some studies, including DNA tests on Native Americans in the area, had been done, but there is no enough information to conclude.
Another investigation involved state-of-the-art technology to find buried pieces of the colony, but they could not find any evidence about these people in particular.
Concerning history, we can see that a war took place between England and Spain during the colony's disappearance. The Spaniards might have killed the people. Also, some investigators believe that Native Americans killed the settlers' group because they had a violent encounter with a previous group that they took out of their lands because of how they treat them and their lands.
There are many theories, each of them with a different reason supporting it, but nothing is certain yet.
As regards the essay's structure, we should write an introduction, where we make our statement. Then, we develop the theories in different paragraphs. To conclude, we write our statement again in a reformulated way.
