Read the excerpt from Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby.

My own house was an eyesore, but it was a small eyesore, and it had been overlooked, so I had a view of the water, a partial view of my neighbor's lawn, and the consoling proximity of millionaires—all for eighty dollars a month.

Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water, and the history of the summer really begins on the evening I drove over there.

The contrast created between East Egg and West Egg suggests that:

A. the main character feels comfortable in all social situations.

B. Nick will experience a series of financial pitfalls as the story unfolds.

C. the story’s conflict will be based on wealth and appearances.

D. the story will be presented from a number of differing perspectives.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

This is because A not all the main characters feel comfortable in certain situations, B. Nick doesn't really experience any pitfalls since he was just the narrator and D. The only perspective in which the story is told is from Nick's perspective. C is the right answer because most of the conflicts were based off wealth and the way characters were presented.

The tundra ecosystem of Alaska is known as a “cold desert.” It receives very little precipitation, about four inches annually. However, it is rich in wetlands due to permafrost, which traps moisture close to the surface. The temperatures vary widely, also producing persistent winds. Although treeless, the Arctic tundra is an abundant ecosystem. Many organisms find their niche here including many migratory bird species and mammals such as caribou, foxes, bears, and small rodents. Which factor of the tundra ecosystem is biotic?
wind
dead bird
carbon dioxide
temperature

Answers

Answer:

b

Explanation:

i took the test

The biotic factor in the tundra ecosystem described in the given paragraph is "dead bird". The correct option is B.

What is a biotic factor?

A biotic factor refers to a living component of an ecosystem, including all living organisms such as plants, animals, and microorganisms. The other options given in the question are abiotic factors, which are non-living components of an ecosystem.

Option A, "wind," is an abiotic factor because it is a physical characteristic of the environment and does not involve living organisms.

Option C, "carbon dioxide," is also an abiotic factor. Although it is important for the survival of plants and other autotrophs, it is not considered a living organism.

Option D, "temperature," is an abiotic factor as well, because it is a physical factor that affects the living organisms in an ecosystem.

Option B, "dead bird," is a biotic factor because it refers to a once-living organism that has died and becomes a part of the ecosystem. Dead birds, along with other dead plants and animals, play an important role in the nutrient-cycling process in an ecosystem. They provide food for decomposers like bacteria and fungi, which break down the organic matter and release the nutrients back into the soil, making them available for other living organisms to use.

Therefore, The correct answer is option B.

She asked for a ball, which she placed on the grass. Then, barefoot, as the team looked on, she blasted a shot directly at the boy, who dove out of the way as the ball rocketed into the net.

"Thou art a fool,” said my head to my heart,

“Indeed, the greatest of fools thou art,

To be led astray by the trick of a tress,

By a smiling face or a ribbon smart;”

And my heart was in sore distress.

Then Phyllis came by, and her face was fair,

The light gleamed soft on her raven hair;

And her lips were blooming a rosy red.

Then my heart spoke out with a right bold air:

“Thou art worse than a fool, O head!”

Describe a time when you made a meaningful contribution to others in which
the greater good was your focus. Discuss the challenges and rewards of
making your contribution. 3-5 paragraphs

Answers

There have been many times where I’ve mare meaningful contribution to the people of my town, but one in particular stands out. I had just moved into NYC and bought an apartment, when I saw a homeless man and his family sitting in the street. I decided that I was gonna help them. However, I was faced with 2 very complicating challenges.

The first challenge was proving food, water, etc... I had not been making enough money to give them all of the things they required. So, I reached out to some friends and had them help me out with getting a job at the local bank. I had finally been able to provide the man, his wife, and kids with food and water.

The second challenge was even harder to deal with. My family had called and told me they were coming over. I had to explain to them there was no space because I was housing some friends. They came over anyway and found out what was really going on. They was very disappointed in me for lying. I apologized, but my parents still didn’t like what I was doing. However, I didn’t care because I knew what i was doing was right. A couple weeks later the husband had gotten a job and was now in shape to house his family. I loaned him some money and sent him and his family out and wished them good luck. My family was extremely happy they were gone. We had dinner and resolved all of our issues.

In conclusion, sometimes helping people and the greater good is gonna come with challenges, however the feeling after helping them will always be worth it. I’ll never forget what it felt like to see the family’s faces when I offered them a place to stay for a while. That was the true reward of it all.

I hope this works it was just off the top of my head. They are some grammar issues but they’re really easy to fix. If it helps I’d really appreciate it if you gave me branliest!

Answer:

1. Polite

2. Destroy

3. Wind

4. Trade

5. Spoil

6. Necessary

Explanation:

A root word is the base of a word that has no prefixes or suffixes. A prefix or suffix is a word part that is added to the beginning or end of a word to change the meaning. Common suffixes change the verb tense like -ed or -ing. Prefixes like re- change how the action is performed. For example, rewind means that it is something being winded up again as opposed to for the first time.
