How does this excerpt help readers make a personal connection to the story? by offering details about Wash's daily routines by giving the measurements of Wash's tub by providing information about the high cost of hot water by offering suggestions for maintaining cleanliness
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Read this excerpt from We've Got a Job: The 1963 Children's March.
To take a bath, they first had to lug water to their room from the only sink in the house, near the bathroom. "We had a Number Ten tub," Wash explained, describing the high-sided tin contraption. "We boiled water, poured [it] into the tub, and then put cold water in the tub. And that's what we took a bath in, because there was no such thing as hot water in the house."
How does this excerpt help readers make a personal connection to the story?
A. by offering details about Wash's daily routines
B. by giving the measurements of Wash's tub
C. by providing information about the high cost of hot water
D. by offering suggestions for maintaining cleanliness
Answer:
This excerpt helps readers make a personal connection to the story:
A. by offering details about Wash's daily routines.
Explanation:
A personal connection to a story happens when readers are reminded of their own personal experiences when reading that story. The excerpt we are analyzing here offers that chance to readers by describing Wash's daily routine. It is likely that several readers have gone through similar experiences in life, for several reasons. Even if the experiences were not the same, reading about someone's simple daily struggles like this helps readers feel that that character - fictional or not - is an ordinary person, just like they are, and with whom they can relate. Thus, connection is created.
Answer: A
Explanation:
I promise it's the answer. I took the quiz myself.

Select the sentence that does not contain an error:

The meadow full of flowers were in full bloom.
The meadows full of flower were in full bloom.
The meadow full of flowers was in full bloom.
Answer:
the last sentence
Explanation:
hope it helps:)
Answer:
Easy! The meadow full of flowers was in full bloom.
Because it has to have a subject-verb agreement so the 2nd and 3rd sentences don't agree with eachother so it is only 1 and 2. You wouldn't say the medow is full of flower you would say it is full of flowers.

Hi, I have read all 30 chapters of this book. This answer is free of spoilers, though!
Simon was a student at Bayview High that gossiped about the people who made fun of him. Although he was not a good person, readers still debate whether he was or was not. I do not think Simon was a bully, just a misunderstood student. However, Simon did some bad things that you should never do, and despite this, I do not think he deserved what happened to him.
Would recommend "One Of Us Is Lying" by Karen M. McManus if you like mysteries and feelings of suspense.

Time plays a major part in both stories. How is time different in these two stories?
Answer: The chosen story is "The Story of an Hour".
Explanation:In "The Story of an Hour" we have a story aimed at telling the lack of freedom that women suffered within their marriages and in the eyes of society in general. This is because this short story presents a woman who lived in an unhappy marriage, but is extremely happy to know about her husband's death, because she knew that with him dead she could enjoy her life, see the beauty of the world and be literally free.
The definition of this story is important for us to understand how the role of women within a marriage has changed over time, moreover, history shows that there are evils that happen for good, to remove something bad from our life.

While some parents are more interested in their own social relationships than in their children, other parents spend their evenings working or involved in time-consuming activities which keep them from spending those hours with their sons or daughters. When parents are preoccupied or away, children will seek attention elsewhere, usually in undesirable surroundings, with people who will recognize and accept them. In a situation of too much freedom and no discipline, the child gets into trouble, and parents often discover the problem too late. The lack of parental discipline and concern frequently results in severe problems for both the child and the parent.
In the paragraph above, what five details did the author give to prove his topic sentence?
Some parents are more interested in social life.

Learning Task 6: As your final task for this lesson, you will need to prepare and
deliver a speech on a familiar issue. You are free to decide on what issue to
discuss, but your speech should only range from two (2) to three (3) minutes. You
will also have to employ the different techniques in public speaking cited in this
lesson. Choose from among the specific options provided below on how you may
possibly be able to accomplish this task. Paste a copy of your speech in your
notebook.
A. If you have a gadget that you can use, you may ask for the help of a family member or
use an improvised tripod in recording or filming your speech delivery. The final copy of

to the Internet, you may ask for a schedule
Here is a step-by-step guide that may be useful if you are called upon to give an impromptu speech in public.
Take a moment to collect your thoughts and plan the main point you want to make.
Thank the person for inviting you to speak.
Deliver your message, making your main point as briefly as you can while still covering it adequately and at a pace your listeners can follow.
Thank the person again for the opportunity to speak.
Stop talking.
How we deliver a speech is just as important, if not more so, than the basic message we are trying to convey to an audience. But if you have worked hard on preparing the verbal part of your speech, you may feel that delivery is just an “extra” that should not require much time or effort. After all, your speech is carefully planned, researched, and polished. It is committed safely to paper and hard drive. It’s a carefully constructed, logically crafted, ethical message. The words alone should engage your audience’s attention and interest—right?
After all the work of building such a message, you might wish that you could simply read it to the audience. However, this is the case in only a few kinds of circumstances: when the message is highly technical, complex, and extremely important (as in a new medical discovery); when international protocols and etiquette are crucially important and the world is listening; or when the speaker is representing a high-ranking person, such as a president or a king, who is unable to be present. For the purposes of your public speaking class, you will not be encouraged to read your speech. Instead, you will be asked to give an extemporaneous presentation. We will examine what that means.
The nonverbal part of your speech is a presentation of yourself as well as your message. Through the use of eye contact, vocal expression, body posture, gestures, and facial display, you enhance your message and invite your audience to give their serious attention to it, and to you. Your credibility, your sincerity, and your knowledge of your speech become apparent through your nonverbal behaviors.
The interplay between the verbal and nonverbal components of your speech can either bring the message vividly to life or confuse or bore the audience. Therefore, it is best that you neither overdramatize your speech delivery behaviors nor downplay them. This is a balance achieved through rehearsal, trial and error, and experience.
In this chapter, we are going to examine effective strategies for delivering a speech. To help you enhance your delivery, we will begin by exploring the four basic methods of speech delivery. Second, we will discuss how to prepare your delivery for different environments. Third, we will talk about how to effectively use notes to enhance your delivery. Finally, we will examine characteristics of good delivery and give some strategies for practicing effectively for the day when you will deliver your speech.
Impromptu speaking is the presentation of a short message without advance preparation. Impromptu speeches often occur when someone is asked to “say a few words” or give a toast on a special occasion. You have probably done impromptu speaking many times in informal, conversational settings. Self-introductions in group settings are examples of impromptu speaking: “Hi, my name is Steve, and I’m a volunteer with the Homes for the Brave program.” Another example of impromptu speaking occurs when you answer a question such as, “What did you think of the documentary?”
The advantage of this kind of speaking is that it’s spontaneous and responsive in an animated group context. The disadvantage is that the speaker is given little or no time to contemplate the central theme of his or her message. As a result, the message may be disorganized and difficult for listeners to follow

Art of the written word
A sweet and many amused rhyme
Used a writer's one sense of time
Lyres and faery lands forlorn
A bough where a gentle incense hangs
Nightingale the most poetic
Of such a sweet verse sang
loves bloom and withering fade
Just as springs night to winters day
The silent written word
Be it heard by soft tone
Or unheard by seeing eyes alone
Sepulchres made of aged stone
Lustful eyes laid upon lush evergreen
Fey, starry, and pure
Left behind forgotten lores
Glistening stars speaking evermore
Gentle whispers
Sounding seas
Depths far too deep
Listen and you will hear
All such sounds
Pulling you toward
The art of the written word.
