"Animals in Translation" Did Grandin's story about Jane's cat convince you that animals have an amazing ability to perceive their world? Why or why not? Use evidence from the text to support your position.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

History shows animals with a great capacity to understand the world. This justifies how animals, especially cats, can answer the operator's voice, since they have the perception that this voice is signaling to them. This shows that animals are smarter than we imagined and are spectacular creatures. This matches Grandin's judgments about understanding animals more than understanding humans.

In this activity, you will respond to questions about the poems that you explored in the tutorial: "I Hear America Singing" by Walt Whitman and "I, Too" by Langston Hughes.

Answers

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

In this activity, you will respond to questions about the poems that you explored in the tutorial: “i hear america singing” by walt whitman and “i, too” by langston hughes. part a you studied both a video analysis and text analysis of the poem "i hear america singing." consider how the speaker of the poem describes america as “singing.” write a paragraph discussing the central theme of the poem, drawing information from both the video and the text. cite specific evidence from the video and text to support your analysis.

Answer and Explanation:

Part A: The speaker of the poem describes that America sings in harmony through its hardworking citizens, who dedicately work together to build a better armerica. In other words, America "sings" through its workers. It is the sound of their effort and effort that make up this harmonious melody.

Part B: The central theme of the poem is about how the freedom of American citizens and the opportunities that America offers, allows the country to have a great development, making every American important to keep this development active.

Answer:

Using information from the text analysis, you should have noted the following points about the central theme of the poem:

The poet visualizes all Americans working in harmony to build a stronger nation.

Whitman uses the image of people singing while doing their work and creates a visual effect of the nation as one chorus of the various tunes.

Whitman allows American readers to see themselves reflected in the poem, and he establishes a connected identity between Americans of every skill and occupation to illustrate the idea that every American has an equal opportunity to be a part of the American voice.

What does Shirley Chisholm mean by the "happy little homemaker?" What does she mean by the "contented old darkey?"

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Shirley Chisholm was a candidate for the presidency in 1971. She was the first African American woman elected to Congress.

Mr.Speaker, when a young woman graduates from college and starts looking for a job, she is likely to have a frustrating and even demeaning experience ahead of her. If she walks into an office for an interview, the first question she will be asked is, "Do you type?''

There is a calculated system of prejudice that lies unspoken behind that question. Why is it acceptable for women to be secretaries, librarians, and teachers, but totally unacceptable for them to be managers, administrators, doctors, lawyers, and Members of Congress.

The unspoken assumption is that women are different. They do not have executive ability orderly minds, stability, leadership skills, and they are too emotional.

It has been observed before, that society for a long time, discriminated against another minority, the blacks, on the same basis - that they were different and inferior. The happy little homemaker and the contented "old darkey" on the plantation were both produced by prejudice.

Answer:

When students write, there are several different types of structure they might follow. This lesson explores the classification-division text structure and also provides an example of how it works.

Writing With Structure

Let's say that your friend Calvin has just been asked to write a brief essay on different types of animals. He has decided that the best way to format his piece will be to divide the topic of animals into three subtopics that include mammals, reptiles, and birds. From there, Calvin plans to further divide each subtopic into categories that highlight attributes and examples of each type of animal. With this type of plan in place, Calvin prepares to write his essay using classification-division text structure.

Text Structure

Text structure refers to the way an author arranges information in his writing. Text structure enables authors to organize their thoughts as they write. It also helps the reader in that it provides a structure in which information can be found and understood while it's being read. There are several different types of text structure, including:

Chronological: discussing things in order

Cause and effect: explaining a cause and its results

Problem and solution: presenting a problem and offering a solution

Compare and contrast: discussing similarities and differences

Classification-division: sorting information into topics and categories

In approximately 100 words, describe the cause and effect relationships among events in act II.

Answers

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

Act II of Arthur Miller's Crucible becomes composed of interconnected incidents or one event that often causes one, throughout this event, you could see that the partnership between Elizabeth or Elizabeth Proctor is strained due to Abigail's affair. In this play, we can now see the event in the order they occur.

John points out that witch hunts are full: Laura is the lead prosecutor and 14 individuals are imprisoned wants people John to tell her everything he knows and therefore can grasp how.

Investigation revealed he could say that if he was all alone Abigail, but he has to confess that he told him they're all only false to avoid problems. Its inability of Proctor to inform Elizabeth he was alone with Abigail triggers further debate on crimes already committed but forgiven.

Lady Macbeth comes home, hands Elizabeth a petal, and seems to be angry that 39 women are also in jail accused of witchcraft. Mary reveals she is jailed because Mrs. Putnam can not say the Holy Quran.

The Invigilators do not want Mary to return, but they overlap how she has saved Angelina's life in court tomorrow, and Elizabeth says, "She wishes my dead, John... your know that," Anne can't tell who charged Elizabeth.

He recognizes it. He will Hale arrives, nervous that perhaps the title of Rebecca Nurse is "mentioned". Hale questioned Prospero about low attendance at his church; John told him the truth.

Hawthorne asks Prospero to recite their 10 Commandments; he tends to forget one precept, one precept, and he helps Emily, Hale's told Prospero Abigail's gone. The spouses were detained and Giles and Joseph Norse arrived. Hawthorne is troubled. Hawthorne is disturbed. Elijah Cheever goes to Emma to ask if she has any poppy; Anne gives her the one she's got for Mary.

Answer: Act II of Miller's "The Crucible" has many connected incidents that keep the story moving. You could see that the partnership between Elizabeth and Abigail is strained due to Abigail's affair. More events are connected and wouldn't happen if the previous event hadn't happened. It's all confusing, but one example is when the investigation revealed connections to Abigail. Her being the center of this would only make sense if she were all alone, and she was alone - with Proctor. By refusing to admit their affair, Abigail is at risk of being hanged due to accusations of being a witch. There are more characters that we are introduced to later on, such as Anne towards the end of the story, and they also are connected to previous events.

Please don't copy/paste my answer. I just put it here to help others learn more about the story. Thanks!
