If you could change one thing in the world what would it be?
1 Paragraph

Answers

Answer:

I would change anybody who isn't in jail rightfully would be in jail and anybody who is in jail wrongfully would be free. There are so many people who are in jail now who don't deserve to be because they didn't do anything wrong, they were wrongfully convicted. However, there's still so many other inappropriate people, murderers, robbers, school shooters, child abusers, anybody who sells another person, who are out on the streets doing the unimaginable. While People who have been in jail for a long time suffer for those types of crimes. Lastly, that's why the one thing I would change would be people who deserve to be in jail go to jail and the all the other innocent human beings are let out of it.

Explanation:

Hopes this helps!

If I could change one thing in the world it would be global warming. Us humans have been talking about saving the world for so long, yet the Earth continues to deteriorate dah by day. The ocean is polluted causing animals to have inflamed lungs or be caught in plastic and choked to death. The air is polluted from the gas let out by factories causing some of us to have unhealthy lungs. Our streets are littered with trash, not a day goes by where you don’t see a cola can on the side of the street. The polar caps are melting, and soon some states won’t be here anymore. As our Earth deteriorates because of what us humans have done to nature it leaves a bleak future for us.

(Hope this is okay, correct me if I’m wrong with the examples of global warming)

Which narrative point of view is used in this excerpt from “The Lily’s Quest” by Nathaniel Hawthorne?

So one breezy and cloudless afternoon Adam Forrester and Lilias Fay set out upon a ramble over the wide estate which they were to possess together, seeking a proper site for their temple of happiness. They were themselves a fair and happy spectacle, fit priest and priestess for such a shrine, although, making poetry of the pretty name of Lilias, Adam Forrester was wont to call her "Lily" because her form was as fragile and her cheek almost as pale. As they passed hand in hand down the avenue of drooping elms that led from the portal of Lilias Fay's paternal mansion they seemed to glance like winged creatures through the strips of sunshine, and to scatter brightness where the deep shadows fell.

Part A What is a theme of "Stray"? People who work hard are less likely to want to keep a pet. A family's financial situation can affect the decisions it makes. A family should make financial sacrifices for their pets. People should put their children before their pets.

Answers

Answer:

A family's financial situation can affect the decisions it makes.

Explanation:

"Stray" tells the story of a girl who, when rescuing a stray dog, cannot stay with him because the family does not have enough financial resources. The girl's father warns that she can help the dog to recover (the dog is injured and malnourished), but due to their financial condition, the dog could not stay in the house. This saddened the girl a lot, but this decision had to be made in the name of the family's needs, which shows that the financial situation has a lot of influence on decision making.

In South Dakota, Pine Ridge Indian Reservation is as big as Delaware and Rhode Island combined. It has some of the highest poverty rates in the United States. For three years, it has also hosted shows with music written for an orchestra by high school students.


"It's really a great thing to see these kids, and the pride that the reservation has in having these kids be stars," said David Gier. He is the music leader of the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra.


The yearly music academy is one part of the Lakota Music Project. It's a program developed with the orchestra and musicians of the Lakota Native American tribe. The goal is to create cultural cooperation, teaching people about the Lakota and the orchestra.


"Through music, we are able to show a side of us that nobody gets to see," said Emmanuel Black Bear, a singer. He has been part of the Lakota Music Project since 2009. The native people have "a rich culture," he said. "I wanted to be a part of something where we could show the positive side of our people through music."


Black Bear is bringing the Lakota Music Project to Washington, D.C. Native flute player Bryan Akipa and nine members of the South Dakota Symphony are also going. In October, Black Bear will perform at the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian and at Washington National Cathedral. It is for a festival hosted by the PostClassical Ensemble. The goal is to show Native American influences on American music.


Matching Two Different Types Of Music Together

The Lakota Music Project "deserves to be more widely known," said Joseph Horowitz. He is the PostClassical Ensemble's leader.


The project began in 2005. It was soon after Gier started with the orchestra. He wanted to develop community programs, and he learned about tensions in his new community between Native and non-Native Americans.


Gier approached local leaders and experts. One was Ronnie Theisz, a writer of books on Lakota culture. The two men talked about creating a project.


An idea came one snowy evening at Pine Ridge. Some of the orchestra's musicians met with the Porcupine Singers, a drumming circle on the reservation. They played music for each other.


Gier said the keeper of the drum talked about singing old songs and passing on tradition to younger people. It was the main thing both groups shared.


There are plenty of differences, too. The timing of the two types of music is different, said Black Bear. "In the beginning, it was kind of difficult to match them together."


Hearing The Music Instead Of Trying To Change It

The first Lakota Music Project tour, in 2009, set themes for the concerts. Theisz became a leader on the project. He suggested grouping the concert around love and death, joy and sadness, with music from each culture. The second half had new works on Lakota themes.


The Lakota Music Project is coming to Washington because of Horowitz's support of the Indianist movement. It was in the early 1900s. American composers wrote music based on Native American themes. Horowitz calls it "a major American cultural event that's been totally forgotten."


From the Lakota point of view, however, the "Indianist" movement inappropriately uses Native American customs. It's based on a misunderstanding of Native traditions, they believe.


"Even when they loved to take source music from different Indian tribes," Theisz said of the Indianist composers, "they didn't appreciate it." They wanted to try to improve it, he said.


"We're trying to counter that," he said. "Hearing the real music is part of the project."


The Lakota Music Project's focus remains on building bridges through music.


"It's just human connection," Gier said, "and feeling like we can make a difference."






Question 1

Refer to the Newsela article "The Lakota Tribe Wants to Educate People Through Music Project."


Part A


What is an implied idea in the article??




A. The Lakota Music Project seeks to improve upon the music of different Indian tribes.


B. The goal of the Lakota Music Project is to emphasize the differences between Native American music and European music.


C. The Lakota Music Project is a product of the Indianist movement.


D. An outcome of the Lakota Music Project is that people of different cultures learn how much they have in common.


Question 2

Part B


Which two sentences from the text that best support the answer in Part A?



A. “The Lakota Music Project's focus remains on building bridges through music."


B. “[The Indianist movement] flourished in the early 20th century as American composers based works on Native American themes.”


C. "Native music is more freestyle," said Black Bear, who has been part of the Lakota Music Project since 2009.


D. "Its goal is to spotlight Native American influences on American classical music."
