Answers

Answer 1

reinforce the idea that unanticipated pleasures are the most enjoyable ones.

Answer 2

Answer: B. reinforce the idea that unanticipated pleasures are the most enjoyable ones

Explanation:

In the first sentence of the first paragraph, the author states directly that “Pleasure is very seldom found where it is sought.” In the second sentence, he elaborates on this claim by indicating that pleasures arising from unexpected sources (and which, therefore, could not be sought) in fact create the very greatest pleasure (“Our brightest blazes of gladness”). This idea is then reinforced in the last sentence of the paragraph, in which such pleasure is likened to enjoying flowers that one could not have anticipated because they have grown “from seeds scattered by chance” rather than from seeds that had been cultivated (planted and tended) for the purpose of bringing enjoyment

Dear Jill,

Sarah Adams

I can hardly wait to see you at camp!

Last year Camp was a real experience for me?

That experience was as beautiful as the surroundings of the Pine Forest.

Don't forget to bring your tennis racket, swimsuit, and a Bible.

I'll be at Camp Inspiration on the Sixteenth of this month.

I hope you are as excited, about this retreat, as I am!

I'll bet that's why it’s called Camp inspiration.

Yours in Christ,

Look for Me, on July 16!


KEY THING, THERE ARE MORE THAN ONE ANSWER
DUE TODAY

Answers

Answer:

The first sentence needs a capital letter.

In the 5th line, "camp" doesn't need to be capitalized, and a period or exclamation point is needed at the end instead of a question mark.

In the eighth line, "Sixteenth" doesn't need to be capitalized.

On the ninth line, no commas are needed.

On the tenth line, "Inspiration" needs to be capitalized since it's part of the name.

On the last line, no comma is needed.

Answer:

-the way we shared our love of Christ was inspiring!  

-Last year Camp was a real experience for me?

-That experience was as beautiful as the surroundings of the Pine Forest.

(Branliest will be appreciated)

Answer:

Edmentum sample answer!!!

Explanation:

Here are some similarities between the video and the poem:

Both try to create the sound effect of the echoing thunder. The video does it by including actual thunder sounds. The poem does it by using the literary device of repetition.

Both versions show the beauty and power of nature.

Here are some differences between the video and the poem:

The poem mentions the sights of nature such as grasshoppers and plants. The video shows actual images from nature.

The video provides background information about the origins of the poem and its importance to the Navajo. The poem does not provide any such explanation.

The video has sound effects, which the poem does not have.

The text gives readers time to consider the symbolism and imagery in the poem, which the video does not.

The text allows the readers to use their imaginations, but the video does not.

argumentative writing claim about eating in class

Answers

Answer:

I believe that snacks should be allowed in class.

Often students have to rush home with little time to eat breakfast because of how early school is, and have to spend the time getting ready. Taking a shower, brushing teeth, hair, clothes, gathering school supplies, having to get to their bus stop on time, or the time they have to leave depending on how far away they live from the school.

From this, most students have little time to eat a full breakfast, and have to wait long hours until they are able to eat again depending on what time their lunch is. The hunger will decrease their work done, and overall productivity in classes. Students may feel sick, tired, get headaches, get shaky, get light headed, have a more fowl mood, and have lack of energy. These are all symptoms of being hungry that could easily be fixed by allowing snacks.

Food can cause distractions in the classroom as not everyone will bring food, or people will ask for some and will be distracted by the food. I propose that just like in elementary school, we have a set "snack time" in one or two of our classes where we can eat snacks for a short period of time to fuel up and bring back up our productivity. There can be regulations on what we bring, to weed out unhealthy things like chips, candy, sweets, and other things.

Allowing students to have snacks in school will not only help them with their productivity in school, but increase their mood, and allow them to have more time in the mornings to get ready for school instead of having to worry that they wont be able to eat any food till lunch.

They didn't reach an agreement
their differences.
on account of
due. because
owing

Answers

Answer:

They didn't reach an agreement on account of their differences.

Explanation:

In the given sentence, the necessary word(s) to be put in the blank will be suggestive of the 'cause' of the first part of the sentence. While the first part contains the effect' of the 'cause', completing the whole sentence depends on the part or parts of the phrase needed.

The given options "on account of", "due", "because" or "owing" are all valid to be used in the given sentence. But considering the form and structure of the sentence, the blank will be filled by "on account of".

To use the other options, we would need to add more to the already given words. We cannot simply write "they didn't reach an agreement due/owing/because their differences." For "due" and "owing", it needs "to" to make the sentence whole. Likewise, "because" requires "of" to be usable. If we add these words to the already given words, then the sentence can become

they didn't reach an agreement due to/ because of/ owing to their differences. But these options are wrong as the words are incomplete.

Thus, the correct answer is "on account of".

They didn't reach an agreement on account of their differences.
