Answer:
cool
Explanation:
Please read the following and write a response that is 2-3 paragraphs in length. Each paragraph should be 5-7 sentences in length.
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.
This age-old adage has been passed down through the generations. Typically, it’s an offhand response from a parent to a child when someone has said something that hurt the child’s feelings. After all, as long as there’s no physical damage, then everything must be fine, right? Hurtful words are often treated as inconsequential. People assume they can be easily brushed aside and smoothed over with a flimsy apology on the part of the perpetrator.
But the truth is, words can hurt — in more ways than one — and the effects often far outweigh any scrape or bruise.
In today’s world, our stories are no longer limited to simple word-of-mouth tales or even hard-bound books. Words are digital and far-reaching, passed around on websites, on social media, and in text messages. More often than not, the words we publish online are not really for the benefit of others, but for ourselves. Writer Gracy Olmstead says, “in the world of internet and social media, another narrative has begun to reign supreme: namely, the self-narration.”
So, what happens when the words we use become more about self-gratification than genuinely helping or communicating with others? The result can be anything from shameless selfies to cyberbullying, and the effects are tangible.
The Texas Education Code defines bullying as an act that “exploits an imbalance of power and involves written or verbal expression.” This has recently expanded to include digital forms of communication. These include “sending vicious text messages, emails or instant messages,” and “spreading rumors or gossip by posting it to social networking sites.” The sneaky thing about cyberbullying is that because it’s not physical, we underestimate its negative effects. With the anonymity and distance the internet provides, cyberbullies don’t have to face the consequences of their actions, and often feel free to say whatever they want about others.
History has proven that words can be just as potent weapons as — if not more so than — sticks and stones. During World War II, “the Nazi regime employed propaganda to impress upon German civilians and soldiers that the Jews were not only subhuman but also dangerous enemies.” The words of the German government became the defining narrative of an entire group of people. While this false propaganda seems a far cry from the problems facing teenagers today, they all demonstrate the impact of words.
Novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie put it simply when she said that the stories we tell are often about power. “Power is the ability not just to tell the story of another person, but to make it the definitive story of that person,” Adichie said. Perhaps the answer is not to fight to be heard, but rather to learn to listen. When we are empowered to tell our own stories or share our own points of view, our words can have positive, transformative effects. They can help people understand other experiences and see the world differently.
Now that you’ve read about the effects words can have, what do you think? Has anyone ever said something about you that was hurtful or untrue? What did you do about it? How have you used words to solve a problem, bring people together, or share your own story? Why do words matter?
Answer:
fight to be heard, but rather to learn to listen. When we are empowered to tell our own stories or share our own points of view, our words can have positive, transformative effects. They can help people understand other experiences and see the world differently.

How should the underlined words be written so that sentence 2 has the right
tone?
O A. Were totally useful
B. Had great value
C. Had a ton of uses
D. Were way important
Answer:
B. Had great value
Explanation:
The words that are underlined in sentence 2 are were really cool. This type of language, which we usually use in everyday conversations with our friends, isn't used in informational texts, i.e. texts that give us information about a certain topic. Instead, we should use more formal language. The best substitute would be the words had great value.
Option A is incorrect because it also contains informal language (totally useful - very useful would be better).
Option C also isn't formal enough (had a ton of uses - had many uses is a better version).
Option D is incorrect because the given combination of words isn't correct. Something can't be way important. It can just be very important.
This is why option B is correct.

Write an essay in which you argue whether or not this technology purchase will improve students’ lives.
Technologies have facilitated the study, research and the search for new information. This has helped students worldwide, as it allows research to be done quickly and to be global in nature, as the use of technology allows research to be done in any language and anywhere in the world.
In this case, we can say that yes, the use of technologies is beneficial for students and can greatly improve their academic life and knowledge.
However, it is important to note that for these improvements to be noticed, there must be a good use of these technologies. This is because the ease of looking for distractions and finding irrelevant subjects is high, which indicates that to obtain academic advantages.
Therefore, the student needs to police himself and be regulated when it comes to using technology to improve his study and when to use it for fun.
1.Think about the five steps to writing an algorithm. Why is each step necessary? 2.Why is it important to be precise when writing computer code? 3.Some problems are better solved by a computer and some are better solved by humans. How do you know when a problem should be solved by a computer or by a person? 4.There’s a scientific theory out there that says that our brain uses an algorithm to create our thoughts and it’s called the Theory of Connectivity. This theory suggests that information comes into our brains, is processed, stored, and then results in an output. Does this process sound familiar to you? In what ways do our bodies take in input and respond, sometimes without our control? Give two examples. 5.In what ways is the human brain like a computer? In what ways is it different? (100) points
Answer:
Following are the solution to this question:
Explanation:
In point 1:
The algorithm requires the steps in writing:
Step 1: provide issue description
Step 2: A problem analysis.
Step 3: Designing an algorithm at a high level.
Step 4: Improve the method with details.
Step 5: Algorithm revision
Designers attempt to address our issue by defining it and understand precisely what issue we are working to remedy. Its problem is analyzed or disrupted to find out how it starts and finishes and therefore understands and creates an equation to fix it.
The key part of the problem was its creation of a high-level method and later leave it up. Our implementation is enhanced and further algorithms are provided in more detail. An algorithm would be checked to be certain of fixing the situation, and how much we will solve it.
In point 2:
Rightness, Right, and Thirdly, a right code allows people to become less concerned about glitches and to improve the functionality of a program. Users like correct code as no one enjoys crashing apps.
In point 3:
Whenever a judgment is important or requires the integrity of civilization (it's called "artificial" intelligence for a reason). Example: computers weren’t a person, they feel the emotion.
In point 4:
Yes, I'm familiar with the process. It appears to be the computer's operating system.
Our muscles accept the permission and sometimes react beyond our command by reflex acts. The sneezing as well as the scratch reflection were the two examples.
Input, processing, hoarding, and results theory of connectivity is analogous to the functioning of the human body, which has to recognize input from the surrounding conditions in which it produces and delivers the output. Involuntary measures taken to react to a stimulus were reflex acts. Whenever the organ receives its feedback, the response is often given before we know.
In point 5:
By mapping the systems into matrices, machines can model neural nets. In every gross detail, we don't know how the brain functions. We learn more constantly, but the long way is still ahead of us.

what humor devices are used on this poem?
"One fine day in the middle of the night,
Two dead men got up to fight,
Back to back they faced each other,
Drew their swords and shot each other,
One was blind and the other couldn't, see
So they chose a dummy for a referee.
A blind man went to see fair play,
A dumb man went to shout "hooray!"
A paralysed donkey passing by,
Kicked the blind man in the eye,
Knocked him through a nine inch wall,
Into a dry ditch and drowned them all,
A deaf policeman heard the noise,
And came to arrest the two dead boys,
If you don't believe this story's true,
Ask the blind man he saw it too!"- Christopher Brookmyre

In Act I, Scene 1 of The Diary of Anne Frank, compare the setting to the action that occurs in the scene. Is the mood of the setting hopeful, frightening, or something else? Compare this to the actions of the scene to discuss how the setting and plot do or do not work together. Use specific quotations and examples in your response of about 150 words.
Answer:
It is very frightening because they can get caught easily and if they do, they will most likely get killed right there, tortured, or go to a concentration camp. They all are hoping not to get caught by the Nazis and hoping they have enough food when all this ends. It is frightening for the people who are hiding in the Secret Annex because if they make any noise between 6 a.m to 8 p.m the people who work down there will hear them and they will turn them in. They are also starting to argue who gets more food, which will turn out bad if they keep doing that. It would be very frightening if I was them and I wouldn't know what to think. The Nazis are at every block in the streets and if they see them through a window or such sort are getting killed. That's why I think it is very frightening.
Explanation:
The first characteristic is also the most complex: composition. The composition usually involves smaller geometric
shapes that are repeated, creating rhythm. A grid of either equilateral triangles or squares is used as a foundation, but
sometimes a twist on the triangle grid-a hexagonal grid-is used instead. Circles, squares, and straight lines provide the
basis for the pattern, which is interlaced, combined, and duplicated in order to create a beautiful design. In mathematics,
these grids of repeated figures are called tessellations, a word which is derived from the Latin word tessere, meaning
“pieces of mosaic." A tessellation repeats a polygon over and over to tile a plane.

How do the authors of “Having It Both Ways" and
"Superheart" use language differently to convey
similar ideas and feelings about love?
Answer and Explanation:
Both poems present love as something dangerous that threatens the life of an individual, weakening him and leaving him vulnerable.
“Having It Both Ways" does this through repetition. This is because, in the course of the poem, it is possible to see that the author repeats the idea that many would like to have both (life and love), but one can only have one , many choose love and then repent wishing they were still alive.
In "superheart", this concept is shown in a less subjective way and instead of repetition, it uses the allusion, explaining the actions of love on someone with references to what the kryptonite causes to the superman.

People take cars and other road vehicles for granted today. However, the idea of such vehicles was unheard of about 500 years ago. Then, in 1478, the artist and inventor Leonardo da Vinci designed a self-propelled vehicle. His drawing showed a boxy, open-topped wooden machine with three wheels. Coiled springs would make the vehicle move somewhat like a windup toy. Models of Leonardo's vehicle have been made in recent years and are on exhibit in museums in Italy.
