Answer and Explanation:
This question refers to the short story "Harrison Bergeron", by Kurt Vonnegut. Set in the future, the plot revolves around a strange type of equality imposed by the American government. People who are beautiful, talented, or intelligent, for example, are forced to wear handicaps to be ordinary. Harrison is a 14-year-old who wears several handicaps. One day, he escapes prison, rips his handicaps off in live television, and dances with a ballerina. However, they are both shot and killed by the Handicapper General, Diana Moon Glampers.
Imagine that Diana Moon Glampers had missed and that Harrison and the ballerina escaped. How might the story's plot have changed?
If Harrison and the ballerina had escaped, it is possible that the plot would develop toward their being chased down by the government. It is also possible that other people who were forced to wear handicaps might feel inspired by Harrison's action. Perhaps more and more people would begin to tear off their handicaps and join Harrison in his act of defiance.

What is most likely the reason the writer uses a
problem-solution text structure in this excerpt?
Read this excerpt from "A Student's Guide to Global
Climate Change."
Climate change could make it too hot to grow
certain crops, and droughts caused by climate
change could reduce the amount of water available
for irrigation. Climate change is also likely to cause
stronger storms and more floods, which can
damage crops. Higher temperatures and changing
rainfall patterns could help some kinds of weeds and
pests to spread to new areas. If the global
temperature rises an additional 3.6°F, US corn
production is expected to decrease by 10 to 30
percent.
What can people do about it?
Farmers may be able to prepare for climate change
by planting crops during different times of the year,
or by planting crops that can survive better in hot
and dry conditions,
o to show how much corn yield will decrease if
temperatures rise by 3.6°F
O to inform people of the risks presented to farming
by climate change
O to let people know about the link between climate
change and food shortages
O to propose changes in farming that temperature
increases make necessary
Answer:
D. To promote changes in farming that temperature increases make necessary
Explanation:
According to this excerpt from "A Student's Guide to Global Climate Change.", the author talks about how climate change can affect the growth of crops, as of he climate is too hot, it can scorch the crops and make them difficult to survive and if it rains much, can cause flooding and destroy crops. Therefore, he uses a problem-solution text to show that there are alternatives to make in case of any climate change.
Therefore, the most likely reason the writer uses a problem-solution text structure in this excerpt is to promote changes in farming that temperature increases make necessary

argumentative essay about increasing teachers pay i need alot of help
Answer:
Solution Proposal
Solution Proposal New Mexico came in at position 49 in a ranking by a national review for educational quality which measures aspects like high school graduation rates, advanced placement exam results, school finances and pre-K enrollment. New Mexico came just ahead of Mississippi and Nevada overall (Education Week Magazine, 2017). This ranking shows the poor state of education in New Mexico. Similarly, in the 2017 college and career metric New Mexico came in last. College and career metric reviews factors such as poverty levels of a family, education of a parent, kindergarten enrollment, and steady employment (Education Week Magazine, 2017). The poor state of education in the country is because of a lack of policies that would otherwise improve the education quality in the country. New Mexico Legislature should, therefore, come up with strategies such as a sliding pay scale for teachers pay that would improve education quality and ensure there is enough funding for the implementation of these policies.
There have been solutions previously suggested by some state leaders. In 2011, Ms. Skandera, the state’s education secretary-designate rolled out an aggressive teacher evaluation system devised to improve student achievement (Education Week Magazine, 2017). However, educators maintained that MS Skandera had shunned other valid ways to judge teachers. The New Mexico teachers resisted the new plan for evaluation. Educators suggested that MS. Skandera should have given more weight to classroom observations and to stop the idea of starting the assessments gradually. Furthermore, the state rolled out Principals Pursuing Excellence and Teachers Pursuing Excellence programs, with the aim to mentor educators to increase reading and math proficiency rates among the students.

Answer:
Español:
La historia trata de un gigante que tenía un hermoso jardín, pero nunca dejó que nadie entrara a su jardín. Cuando no estaba en su casa, los niños venían a su jardín a jugar. Pero un día, el gigante decidió visitar a su amigo y se fue al reino vecino. El gigante regresó de la casa de su amigo después de siete años. Al ver a los niños jugar en su jardín, los ahuyentó furiosamente y construyó un muro alto alrededor del jardín. Después de que los niños dejaron de ir al jardín, los árboles y las flores estaban tan tristes que perdieron su belleza. No más pájaros vinieron a cantar allí. La primavera estaba en todas partes, pero en el jardín del gigante todavía era invierno. Hasta que una mañana, el gigante vio niños jugando en el jardín. Y llegó la primavera con los niños otra vez. El gigante se dio cuenta de que había sido egoísta y lamentaba mucho lo que había hecho. Dejó que los niños jugaran en el jardín todos los días para que la primavera volviera con los niños.
Ingles:
The story is about of a giant who had a beautiful garden, but he never let anyone get into his garden. Whenever he wasn't in his house, the children would come to his garden to play. But one day, the giant decided to visit his friend and left for the neighbouring kingdom. The giant came back from his friend's hause after seven years. Seeing the children play in his garden, he angrily chased them away and built a high wall around the garden. After the children stopped coming to the garden, the trees and flowers were so sad that they lost their beauty. No more birds came to sing there. Spring was everywhere but in the giant's garden it was still winter. Until one morning, the giant saw children playing in the garden. And spring arrived with the children again. The giant realised that he was been selfish and he was very sorry for what he had done. He let the children play in the garden every day so the spring could come back with the children.

Read the statement below, and then answer the question that follows it.President Obama believes that creativity is a valuable trait for people to have. Explain how you can tell that the above statement is true. Write a paragraph responding to this question. Use at least two details from the passage to support your response.
from “The President’s Speech to Students” by President Barack Obama1 You’re this country’s future. You’re young leaders. And whether we fall behind or race ahead as a nation is going to depend in large part on you. So I want to talk to you a little bit about meeting that responsibi l it y.2 It starts, obviously, with being the best student that you can be. Now, that doesn’t always mean that you have to have a perfect score on every assignment. It doesn’t mean that you’ve got to get straight As all the time—although that’s not a bad goal to have. It means that you have to stay at it. You have to be determined and you have to persevere. It means you’ve got to work as hard as you know how to work. And it means that you’ve got to take some risks once in a while. You can’t avoid the class that you think might be hard because you’re worried about getting the best grade if that’s a subject that you think you need to prepare you for your future. You’ve got to wonder. You’ve got to question. You’ve got to explore. And every once in a while, you need to color outside of the lines.3 That’s what school is for: discovering new passions, acquiring new skills, making use of this incredible time that you have to prepare yourself and give yourself the skills that you’re going to need to pursue the kind of careers that you want. And that’s why when you’re still a student you can explore a wide range of possibilities. One hour you can be an artist; the next, an author; the next, a scientist, or a historian, or a carpenter. This is the time where you can try out new interests and test new ideas. And the more you do, the sooner you’ll figure out what makes you come alive, what stirs you, what makes you excited—the career that you want to pursue. . . .4 So that’s a big part of your responsibility, to test things out. Take risks. Try new things. Work hard. Don’t be embarrassed if you’re not good at something right away. You’re not supposed to be good at everything right away. That’s why you’re in school. The idea, though, is that you keep on expanding your horizons and your sense of possibility. Now is the time for you to do that. And those are also, by the way, the things that will make school more fun. 5 Down the road, those will be the traits that will help you succeed, as well—the traits that will lead you to invent a device that makes an iPad look like a stone tablet. Or what will help you figure out a way to use the sun and the wind to power a city and give us new energy sources that are less polluting. Or maybe you’ll write the next great American novel. . . .6 But I also want to emphasize this: With all the challenges that our country is facing right now, we don’t just need you for the future; we actually need you now. America needs young people’s passion and their ideas. We need your energy right now. I know you’re up to it because I’ve seen it. Nothing inspires me more than knowing that young people all across the country are already making their marks. They’re not waiting. They’re making a difference now. . . .7 There are students like Will Kim from Fremont, California, who launched a nonprofit that gives loans to students from low-income schools who want to start their own business. Think about that. So he’s giving loans to other students. He set up a not-for-profit. He’s raising the money doing what he loves—through dodgeball tournaments and capture-the-flag games. But he’s creative. He took initiative. And now he’s helping other young people be able to afford the schooling that they need. . . .8 The point is you don’t have to wait to make a difference. Your first obligation is to do well in school. Your first obligation is to make sure that you’re preparing yourself for college and career. But you can also start making your mark right now. A lot of times young people may have better ideas than us old people do anyway. We just need those ideas out in the open, in and out of the classroom. . . .9 When I meet young people like yourselves, when I sit and talk to [a student at this school], I have no doubt that America’s best days are still ahead of us, because I know the potential that lies in each of you. Soon enough, you will be the ones leading our businesses and leading our government. You will be the one who are making sure that the next generation gets what they need to succeed. You will be the ones that are charting the course of our unwritten history. And all that starts right now—starts this year. . . .

Part G Why aren’t the two samples given in Table 1 and Table 2 exactly the same? Why do the two tables lead to slightly different results in the calculations?
TABLE 1
people who wear corrective lenses 762
people who wear glasses 638
people who wear contact lenses 124
TABLE 2
people who wear corrective lenses 745
people who wear glasses 618
people who wear contact lenses 127
The most likely why there are different results in the calculations in the given samples is because of a parallax error.
What is a Parallax Error?This refers to a situation where a person who is taking the measurement calculations makes an error based on his angle of viewing which gives him a different value from the original value.
Hence, we can note that parallax error is one of the suspects in this case and it could also be a calculation error or an error which was made when writing down some values.
