absolute truth?
OA) to lose his job
OB) to gain a promotion
OC) to anger the headmaster
OD) to earn the respect of the headmaster
Answer:
C) to anger the headmaster

He makes up his mind to be totally honest, no matter the outcome, for one day. He decides to be absolutely honest with the headmaster that he cannot in fact, sing.
He expects the headmaster to be angry with his admission but instead, the headmaster is pleased with Sekhar's honesty.

(1) A nature lover and local politician in the area had been trying for three years to capture the moose on video. (2) He finally got footage of the moose crossing a river and walking through tall grass. (3) Wandering the southwest region of Sweden is a mysterious white moose. (4) While other moose are typically dark brown or black, this rare moose looks almost entirely white, with soft white velvet coating, even on its antlers. (5) Many believed that the moose's white coloring was a result of a condition called albinism. (6) This is a condition that causes the loss of pigment, or color in skin, hair, and fur.

(11) These white moose have also been seen in various areas of Alaska and Canada but are most common in the vast forests of Sweden and Norway in Europe. (12) With the number of predators, such as bears and wolves, in North America, it is unlikely that the populations of white moose will increase too much. (13) The animals' white fur keep them from being able to camouflage themselves in the forest, making them easy prey.
A. While this condition is rare, these mysterious white moose continue to show up across Europe.
B. The weird white moose are rare, but they seem to be all over the place these days.
C. The white moose are rare and weird, these mysterious white moose are showing up everywhere.

Differences between the Spanish Flu and coronavirus
Answer:
A major difference between Spanish flu and co-19 is the age distribution of fatalities,” according to Deutsche Bank DB, 1.13%. “For co-19, the elderly have been overwhelmingly the worst hit. For the Spanish flu of 1918, the young working-age population were severely affected too. In fact, the death rate from pneumonia and influenza that year among 25-34-year old in the United States was more than 50% higher than that for 65-74-year old. A remarkable difference to co-19.”
Explanation:
Which statement is the best evaluation of this paragraph? The paragraph is sound but needs more supporting evidence to be complete. The paragraph does not have a topic sentence, so it is only partially complete. The paragraph needs to be completely revised, since it lacks focus and clarity. The paragraph is less effective after the first sentence because of its disconnected ideas.
Answer: The paragraph is sound but needs more supporting evidence to be complete.
Explanation:
The Paragraph is well ordered and concise. It is easy to understand and the ideas connect well. It even had a topic sentence that showed what the paragraph was about.
It is lacking in terms of supporting evidence though. It mentions by referencing Dr. Yuma Blankenshi, that a parent's behavior can influence a child's beliefs and value system but then does not go on to state how this is done so until that is stated and corroborated, the evidence is incomplete.

What punctuation or abbreviations are used regularly in an in-text citation? author's initials p. for page comma between author and page none of these
Answer:
None of these.
Explanation:
In an in-text citation for any academic or research writing, it is pertinent to follow the rules and regulations laid out. And such rules were made by numerous organizations/ associations, among which is the commonly accepted and used style Modern Language Association (MLA) Style.
An in-text citation means the inclusion of any text from a primary source. This inclusion or 'quotation' of the source should be done in such a way that it clearly gives credit to the original author from which the source or quote has been taken. As such, some rules regarding in-text citations are that the author's last name will come first, then followed by the first names and so on. Also, there should be a comma between the names, for example, Wright, Robin S.
Then, there is the issue of having more than one author. So, when there are more than three authors, the word "et al". And page numbers for any direct quotations must have the format of the writer's last name and followed by the page number. Example, Wright 235.[For MLA style]
Thus, the correct answer is none of the above given options.
Answer:
none of these

1. Do you believe this story is nonsense for nonsense’s sake, or are there deeper, symbolic interpretations that can be made about Carroll’s work? Explain.
This question is about "Alice in Wonderland"
Answer:
I believe that Carroll's work was not nonsense for nonsense’s sake, but that it includes many logical and playful concepts in order to stimulate the imagination of children.
Explanation:
You should already know that Carroll was a professor of mathematics and that he was a great academic in the field of logic, being an individual who had a certain love for puzzles that involved logical reasoning and the use of mathematical concepts.
When writing "Alice in Wonderland" he used these elements, but in a fun way and that instigated the children's imagination, so they would develop their reasoning in a way that would attract them, with funny, playful things that seem to make no sense at all . I believe that this is the real meaning of this work, I do not believe that Carroll thought of creating deep and philosophical meanings, nor even writing a work that was just nonsense for nonsense’s sake, but that was stimulating and exciting.

State and explain the types of paragraph patterns in a comprehension passage
Answer:
1. Narrative pattern
2. Definition pattern
3. Process pattern
4. Argument pattern
5. Cause and effect pattern
6. Compare and contrast pattern
7. Description pattern
8. Classification pattern
9. Examples pattern.
Explanation:
A paragraph is a collection of sentences that have a central idea.
A paragraph pattern has to do with the way the paragraph is arranged.
Narrative pattern has to do with writing about a central theme in a chronological order. First person pronouns like "My", "I", etc are usually used.
Definition pattern as the name suggests are paragraphs that are written to provide definition of words
Process pattern gives description or instructions on how to perform a particular task. It is usually in chronological order.
Argument pattern is written to sway opinion or to persuade readers about something.
Cause and effect pattern focuses on either a cause or effect of something. For example, when the central idea has a cause, then the supporting points will give the effects of the cause and vice versa.
Compare and contrast pattern deals with comparisons in order to show similarities.
Description pattern simply describes relationship between living and non living things.
Classification pattern simply assigns categories to its structure and is quite similar to compare and contrast.
Examples pattern is used when there is a list of facts or examples to illustrate a point.
Write a Narrative Essay
Explanation:
Narrative essays are stories, like Star Wars but in written form. They focus on a main cast of characters and have things happen to these characters to move the plot forward. Usually the main characters are the protagonists, the "good guys." The antagonists are the "bad guys." However, some stories have the protagonist as the antagonist also. Good stories have a theme, the moral of the story. This is the lesson that you learn at the end. Fables have very clear morals.
Since essays are not the same as books, you have to write a short story. It could be a few pages long.
What will your environment be? Futuristic city? Rain forest? Alien planet? School? These are questions to ask yourself for where the characters will be. You don't have to just choose one. You can have many environments.
Who are the characters? Gender? Age? Personality? You don't have to have that many characters; you can have as little as one or two.
What do you want the story to be? What is the plot? Is it about people struggling in school? People who become super heroes? People who fight in a war? This is what the story will show.
What will the theme be? What is the lesson to be learned? Never pretend to be someone you're not? Don't take your friends for granted? You can look up themes to get an idea of what you want it to be.
No media is completely original. Directors and writers use their past experiences and media that they saw (movies, tv, books) and make their own version. Therefore, you can look at your favorite forms of media and what you liked about them and use it.
In the essay "On the Mode of Communication of Cholera," what is the primary technique that author John Snow uses to support his claim that cholera spreads from person to person?
Answer:
The existence of Asiatic Cholera cannot be distinctly traced back further than the year 1769. Previous to that time the greater part of India was unknown to European medical men; and this is probably the reason why the history of cholera does not extend to a more remote period. It has been proved by various documents, quoted by Mr. Scot,[1] that cholera was prevalent at Madras in the year above mentioned, and that it carried off many thousands of persons in the peninsula of India from that time to 1790. From this period we have very little account of the disease till 1814, although, of course, it might exist in many parts of Asia without coming under the notice of Europeans.
In June 1814, the cholera appeared with great severity in the first battalion, ninth regiment, N. I., on its march from Jaulnah to Trichinopoly; while another battalion, which accompanied it, did not suffer, although it had been exposed to exactly the same circumstances, with one exception. Mr. Cruikshanks, who attended the cases, made a report, which will be alluded to further on.
In 1817, the cholera prevailed with unusual virulence at several places in the Delta of the Ganges; and, as it had not been previously seen by the medical men practicing in that part of India, it was thought by them to be a new disease. At this time the cholera began to spread to an extent not before known; and, in the course of seven years, it reached, eastward, to China and the Philippine Islands; southward, to the Mauritius and Bourbon; and to the northwest, as far as Persia and Turkey. Its approach towards our own country, after it entered Europe, was watched with more intense anxiety than its progress in other directions. It would occupy a long time to give an account of the progress of cholera over different parts of the world, with the devastation it has caused in some places, whilst it has passed lightly over others, or left them untouched; and unless this account could be accompanied with a description of the physical condition of the places, and the habits of the people, which I am unable to give, it would be of little use.
There are certain circumstances, however, connected with the progress of cholera, which may be stated in a general way. It travels along the great tracks of human intercourse, never going faster than people travel, and generally much more slowly. In extending to a fresh island or continent, it always appears first at a seaport. It never attacks the crews of ships going from a country free from cholera, to one where the disease is prevailing, till they have entered a port, or had intercourse with the shore. Its exact progress from town to town cannot always be traced; but it has never appeared except where there has been ample opportunity for it to be conveyed by human intercourse.
.
Answer:
In his essay "On the Mode of Communication of Cholera," John Snow constructs his own theories to replace the prevailing notions about the causes and transmission of cholera. His analysis begins with findings from other physicians who reported cases in which people died of cholera after staying in a room that was previously occupied by a disease-stricken person:
Now the next case of cholera, in London, occurred in the very room in which the above patient died. A man named Blenkinsopp came to lodge in the same room. He was attacked with cholera on the 30th September . . .
He continues to support his theory by describing the pathology of cholera. He rejects the notion that cholera can be transmitted through the air, noting that people who attend to patients with cholera do not necessarily become sick with the disease. He describes symptoms to support his claim that cholera afflicts the alimentary canal.
Finally, Snow uses details from his own experience with an outbreak on Broad Street to support his claim. He explains how individuals using the same water pump became ill with the disease. Snow relies on documentary evidence to show how water from the Broad Street pump was linked to patients with cholera.

Which of the following best completes the following sentence with parallel structure?
The correct answer is A. But she also called her best friend
Explanation:
Parallelism implies elements in a sentence follow the same grammatical structure or pattern. This applies to correlative conjunctions such as either/ or, both/and or not only/but also because these pairs of conjunctions usually go together and by using them together there is a specific grammatical pattern or parallelism.
This implies, in the sentence presented, the correct option is "but she also called her best friend" because the conjunction "not only" should be used along with the conjunction "but also" to create parallelism. Additionally, this option uses the same tense (simple past) as in the first section of the sentence.
Their strength is secret. They send ferocious roots beneath the ground. They grow up and grow down and grab the earth between their hairy toes and bite the sky with violent teeth and never quit their anger. This is how they keep.
Answer:
From the story–The House on Mango Street
Explanation:
In this story, particularly in chapter 29 we read about the role of "four skinny trees" in the life of Esperanza which were beside her house. We are told about them: "Their strength is secret. They send ferocious roots beneath the ground. They grow up and grow down and grab the earth between their hairy toes and bite the sky with violent teeth and never quit their anger. This is how they keep".
In a sense, Esperanza is motivated by the trees.
Underline the subordinate clauses and double underline or highlight the conjunctions/connectors in the sentences below. Then write AdjC for adjective clauses, AdvC for adverb clauses, and NC for noun clauses. The doctor notified the patient that he had only six months left.
Answer:
The doctor notified the patient that he had only six months left.
Explanation:
The subordinate clause is a dependant clause. Essential, it cannot stand by itself. After reading both clauses, we realize the first clause can stand alone.
The doctor notified the patient
Thus, it must be the second clause.
The conjuction conncects both clauses. The word that connects the two cluases.
