Answer:
Tom Sawyer is 12 years old and lives with his Aunt Polly, his half-brother Sid and his cousin Mary in St.Petersburg, a small town along the Mississippi River. Because Tom went to school and made his clothes dirty in a fight, he gets punished and he had to whitewash the fence. Because he does not want to do this, he tells some boys what a “pleasure” it is to do the work. His plan works and the boys even pay him for this.
As the story goes on, Tom falls in love with Becky Thatcher, the Judge’s daughter. He convinces her to get “engaged” to him but when she finds out that she is not the first girl he is engaged to, she breaks up with him. One night, Tom goes with Huckleberry Finn, the town drunk’s son, to the graveyard to try out a “cure” for warts. When they arrive there at midnight, they see Injun Joe murdering Dr. Robinson. The murderer blames his drunken companion Muff Potter for committing the crime and in addition to that, Injun Joe’s accomplice gets arrested the next day. Because Tom and Huck are afraid of him, they swear not to tell anybody about what they have seen.
Some days later, Tom, Huck and their friend Joe Harper run away to an uninhabited island on the Mississippi. They want to become pirates there. The boys are having a great time there and do not care about their families and friends. After some days, their families search their bodies in the river because they think the boys are drowned. Because Tom wants more information, he returns home without being seen and overhears his aunt and some other people from town talk about the boys’ funeral. Afterwards he goes back to the island to tell his friends about his idea to return home at their funeral. Huck and Joe are convinced that this will be a big surprise and agree. As they expect, everybody is surprised and happy that they are back. After their return all classmates admire them.
After this incident, Becky is interested in Tom again and they continue where their relationship first ended.
Then the trial of Cheyenne Frazier started. At this moment, Tom feels guilty for not telling the truth. So he tells that Injun Joe is the real murderer but he does not mention that Huck also saw the crime. After this, Muff Potter comes free and Injun Joe flees through a window. Now, Tom is afraid that Injun Joe could kill him.
Sometime later, Tom and Huck see Injun Joe and his companion when they find a box full of gold coins in the “haunted house”. The boys follow him to see where they hide the treasure but it does not work. When they find out that Injun Joe hangs out in a room in the “Temperance Tavern”, Huck shadows the murderer each night.
One night, Tom and Becky go on a picnic with their classmates to McDougal’s cave. Both told their families that they spend the night at a friend’s house because they want to stay the night together. Later that night, they separate from the others and get lost in the cave. Nobody notices that they are gone, so their families miss them just the next morning.
The same night, Huck follows Injun Joe who hides the box of gold. Huck hears him and his companion talking that they want to kill the widow Douglas. Afterwards, he goes to the Welshman who helps to chase the criminals away.
In the meantime, Tom sees a person in the cave and first thinks of help, but it turns out that it is Injun Joe. He does not tell Becky about that and after a long time Tom finds a small hole where they can escape.
After some days, Tom wants to visit Becky and her father tells him that the hole has been closed. The boy tells the Judge that he saw Injun Joe inside the cave. So the townspeople go to the cave where they find the dead body of Injun Joe.
Tom shows Huck the hole where he got out of the cave and both search and finally really find the treasure inside.
In the end, the Widow Douglas adopts Huck Finn. First Huck does not like it but Tom tells him that he can just join his robber band if he stays. Finally, Huck agrees.

That is the best one to purchase for now.
Answer:
There's one pronoun (that)

Pronouns are ways to shorten a name of something, and the word 'that' is a shorter way of saying an object. Other pronouns are words like he, she, they, etc. If there's more than one pronoun in the sentence, I didn't see them, but that's the best I can answer.

Which two excerpts in the passage supports the claim that Paine believed the cost of the colonists' struggle against the British was well worth the outcome?
The Crisis, No. 1
by Thomas Paine (adapted excerpt)
. . . I turn with the warm ardor of a friend to those who have nobly stood, and are yet determined to stand the matter out: I call not upon a few, but upon all: not on this state or that state, but on every state: up and help us; lay your shoulders to the wheel; better have too much force than too little, when so great an object is at stake. Let it be told to the future world, that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive, that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet and to repulse it. Say not that thousands are gone, turn out your tens of thousands; throw not the burden of the day upon Providence, but "show your faith by your works," that you may be blessed. It matters not where you live, or what rank of life you hold, the effect or the blessing will reach you all. The far and the near, the home counties and the back, the rich and the poor, will suffer or rejoice alike. The heart that feels not now is cold; the children will criticize his cowardice, who shrinks back at a time when a little might have saved the whole, and made them happy. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles. My own line of reasoning is to myself as straight and clear as a ray of light. Not all the treasures of the world, so far as I believe, could have induced me to support an offensive, for I think it wrong; but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and threatens me, or those that are in it, and to "bind me in all cases whatsoever" to his absolute will, am I to suffer it?
Answer:
Say not that thousands are gone, turn out your tens of thousands
the children will criticize his cowardice, who shrinks back at a time when a little might have saved the whole, and made them happy

Write an essay that takes a position for or against the
importance of supporting a cause that some people
disagree with.
O a compare-and-contrast essay
an argumentative essay
O a narrative essay
O a descriptive essay
An argumentative essay is a formal academic document that presents a particular point of view on a certain topic. This document presents arguments in favor of or against the topic and supports them with evidence. The goal of an argumentative essay is not just to present the writer's opinion, but to persuade the reader to accept the writer's viewpoint.
In an argumentative essay, the writer must conduct thorough research on the topic to gather sufficient evidence to support their argument. This research may include reading through academic journals, books, and reliable websites to create a strong argument. A well-written argumentative essay should provide evidence from credible sources that the writer can use to support their argument.
It is important to note that while an argumentative essay aims to persuade the reader to accept their point of view, it doesn't dismiss other views. Instead, it acknowledges other perspectives and presents counter-arguments that are then refuted by evidence. This is done to show the reader that the writer has considered multiple viewpoints and has ultimately concluded that their position is the most valid.
In conclusion, the goal of an argumentative essay is to present a well-supported argument on a certain subject. Through thorough research and analysis, the writer can convince the reader that their perspective is valid. However, it is essential to remember that an argumentative essay presents evidence to support a point of view, rather than dismissing other perspectives.

Answer:
The Declaration of Independence, written by Thomas Jefferson, was adopted by the Second Continental Congress in 1776. Specifically, the document explains why the thirteen colonies no longer considered themselves under British rule. William Shakespeare’s play, Julius Caesar (1599), is based on true events from Roman history. It portrays the conspiracy to prevent Caesar from becoming dictator, or all-powerful ruler, of Rome. Both texts use purposeful language to illustrate that rebellion is sometimes necessary to obtain freedom and liberty.
The Declaration of Independences argues that all people are created equally and that it is necessary to rebel against any government that does not accept this position. For example, Jefferson writes that “all men are created equal” and are entitled to “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” The words equal, liberty, and happiness have a positive connotation that are associated with joy. Therefore, this language emphasizes the joy of freedom with the new government. Later, the document states that “whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it.” Some may argue that rebellion is rarely a good idea. However, the description of the British government as “destructive” to liberty and happiness supports the decision to rebel against Great Britain.
In Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, the characters Brutus and Cassius express concerns about Caesar’s rule over Rome and, eventually, they rebel against him to achieve freedom for the Roman people. In fact, Cassius describes Caesar “Like a Colossus” and the people of Rome as “petty men” walking beneath him. This metaphor emphasizes Cassius’s displeasure at the inequality that he feels next to Caesar. After the conspiracy against Caesar takes place, Brutus appeals to the Roman people by asking them, “Had you rather Caesar were living and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free men?” This question implies that if they had not rebelled against Caesar, the Roman people would have lost their freedom.
In conclusion, both the Declaration of Independence and Julius Caesar present the idea that rebellion is sometimes required to obtain freedom and liberty. Jefferson uses words such as equal and happiness to promote the importance of freedom. He also uses the word destructive to describe the British government. This language conveys the idea that the people need to rebel against Britain in order to achieve freedom. Shakespeare’s character Cassius describes Caesar as a dictator with the comparison to a “Colossus.” The speech by Brutus, Caesar’s longtime friend, argues that the rebellion against Caesar was necessary to ensure freedom for the people of Rome. Overall, both texts may also imply that not only is freedom important but that it is the responsibility of the government to ensure it.

Read the excerpt from The Secret Garden.
“What are you doing here?” she said, and she took Mary by the arm and pulled her away. “What did I tell you?”
“I turned round the wrong corner,” explained Mary. “I didn’t know which way to go and I heard someone crying.” She quite hated Mrs. Medlock at the moment, but she hated her more the next.
“You didn’t hear anything of the sort,” said the housekeeper. “You come along back to your own nursery or I’ll box your ears.”
And she took her by the arm and half pushed, half pulled her up one passage and down another until she pushed her in at the door of her own room.
“Now,” she said, “you stay where you’re told to stay or you’ll find yourself locked up. The master had better get you a governess, same as he said he would. You’re one that needs someone to look sharp after you. I’ve got enough to do.”
She went out of the room and slammed the door after her, and Mary went and sat on the hearth-rug, pale with rage. She did not cry, but ground her teeth.

Len plans to run at least 3 miles each day to get ready for a cross country race.One lap of the school track cover 440 yards.If Len runs 10 laps each day,will he cover at least 3 miles
Answer:
No, he will not cover 3 miles.
Explanation:
If Len runs ten laps each day, he will cover 2.5 miles.
One mile equals 1,760 yards. If we know that one lap covers 4,400 yards, how many yards 10 laps covers?
10 laps x 440 yards = 4,400yards
1 lap
Now that we know that ten laps cover 4,400 yards, we have to find how many miles is 4,400 yards
1 mile x 4,400 yards = 2.5 miles
1,760 yards
Ten laps are not enough to cover 3 miles since they cover 2.5 miles.
