One way to restate that sentence is to say: "Cellphones are a good way to keep in contact with the teacher and do well in school".
Or you could possibly say: "Cellphones allow you to do well in school because you are able to contact the teacher".
Pick one of the following "telling" sentences (or make up your own) and write a descriptive scene that shows instead of tells. Remember to include sensory details (as specific as possible—try for all five senses if you can!), action, and possibly dialogue. If you are truly showing, the sentence you pick below should not appear at all in your scene, but readers should know immediately which sentence you chose!
The kid was a brat.
Nothing I did went right.
He was always there for me.
She was so weird.
He's always showing off.
He loves to swim.
Your scene should be one to two paragraphs long. You will be evaluated on your use of specific nouns, active verbs, and on how well you show your scene. When you are done, submit your assignment for grading. (dont worry this is just copy and pasted from the assignment :))
Answer:
The child's incessant crying and destructive temper tantrums had everyone irrate and not wanting to be around him any longer.
The day started in complete harmony; like a time step, but by noon, each new hour passed as if feeding disaster into the next like a domino effect.
I missed everything about him now down to his monotone voice and looks of contempt; telling me "I told you so!"
When the door opened everyone turned and stared in disbelief at her awkward gait, wirey gray hair, and chosen outfit; each article either one or two sizes too big or too small.
Par for the course, he always has to be wearing something flashy or talking so loudly that all attention is directed at his flamboyant entrance into the room.
Even when the lifeguard blows his whistle for everyone to take a break, Jim is always the last one out if the pool and usually has to be told "Get out!".

In this discussion you will use what you learned about the poems "Will there really be a 'Morning'?", "I dwell in Possibility", and "Ozymandias" to compare how both Dickinson and Shelley used form - lines, capitalization, and punctuation - to bring meaning to the poems .
Let's check out one of your classmate's posts:
In both "Will there really be a 'Morning'?" and "I dwell in Possibility," Emily Dickinson capitalizes the words in the poem that tell the reader what to focus on in the poem. Shelley also capitalizes words that are not names. These must be important to the meaning of the poem.

Trish needs to appear more composed during the interview because she needs to get the teaching job. How do you describe Trish based on her account in the selection above?
Answer and Explanation:
Based on the information given about Trish, we can consider that she is the opposite of a composed person. In this case, we can say that she is an agitated person, does not seem calm and is very nervous in different situations. Trish is unable to maintain a serenity when being evaluated or pressured for something, but shows that she is experiencing strong emotions, may even lose control and be unable to behave properly.
Someone who is composed is tranquil and exhibits no signs of anxiousness. Trish possesses Social Dexterity, which is one of the success factors that can help you advance in your career and life.
Last but not least, there is what I call social dexterity, which is just the ability to engage with others. Shaking people's hands, how you look them in the eyes, and what your body language says about you are all basic things to consider.
In what settings do you feel most at ease? what is your level of assertiveness? How do you interact with others? Are you capable of leading teams or groups of teams?

What is fiction?Fiction is any creative work, chiefly any narrative work, portraying individuals, events, or places that are imaginary, or in ways that are imaginary.
Fictional portrayals are thus inconsistent with history, fact, or plausibility. In a traditional narrow sense, "fiction" refers to written narratives in prose – often referring specifically to novels, novellas, and short stories. More broadly, however, fiction encompasses imaginary narratives expressed in any medium, including not just writings but also live theatrical performances, films, television programs, radio dramas, comics, role-playing games, and video games.
Typically, the fictionality of a work is publicly marketed and so the audience expects the work to deviate in some ways from the real world rather than presenting, for instance, only factually accurate portrayals or characters who are actual people.

Please help me I need a body paragraph 1 for the article teens are going to extremes with texting I NEED A PARAGRAPH
Answer: (Copied this off a website.. Hope this helps, thought :D
Explanation: The national obsession with instantaneous communication is taking a toll on teens so severe that some experts are calling it a crisis.
It's not the phenomenon of cell-phoning or messaging while driving -- both are illegal in
New Jersey
-- but all-night texting that is leaving too many teens too tired for school.
One 14-year-old New Jerseyan featured in a recent Star-Ledger story receives up to 10,000 -- 10,000! -- text messages a month. To accomplish that astounding yet not unusual feat, she interrupts her showers and stays up all night long, thumbs pumping, to read and respond to an avalanche of messages. Doctors are beginning to recognize such obsession as addiction that is robbing children of sleep at the very time in their life when they need it the most.
A well-publicized study recently found that early high school start times deprive adolescents of sleep and force students to perform academically in the early morning, a time of day when they are at their worst. Many teens are making a tough situation worse by shortchanging themselves of the time they do have to sleep. The inevitable results are poor performance, a sort of sleepwalking through classes and the day in a fog that some physicians liken to drunkenness.
According to a recent Nielsen study, 13- to 17-year-olds send or receive an average of 1,742 text messages a month -- more than seven times the average number of calls they place on their cell phones. That represents huge chunks of time dedicated to the flimsiest of patter. Here, truly, the medium is the message, and teens are loath to part with a gadget which to them seems as natural as breathing.
It's a situation made all the more challenging by the fact that these kids are among the first to have this amazing, and tempting, technology right at their fingertips; it's not likely they will set limits for themselves. They depend on their parents for rules and guidelines in all other areas of life, so it's naive to believe they will cut down on texting without some intervention.
great many adults also are addicted to devices of the new technology. In fact, there's a "Distracted Driving Summit" taking place in Washington, D.C., in which federal officials are urging the public not to text and drive in those states that haven't outlawed it. And a rehab center for the technologically dependent just opened in
state. For $14,000, clients are helped to wean themselves from obsessive use of video games, etc..

Read the excerpt from Animal Farm and the passage on the history of the Soviet Union.
In glowing sentences he painted a picture of Animal Farm as it might be when sordid labour was lifted from the animals' backs. His imagination had now run far beyond chaff-cutters and turnip-slicers. Electricity, he said, could operate threshing machines, ploughs, harrows, rollers, and reapers and binders, besides supplying every stall with its own electric light, hot and cold water, and an electric heater. By the time he had finished speaking, there was no doubt as to which way the vote would go. But just at this moment Napoleon stood up and, casting a peculiar sidelong look at Snowball, uttered a high-pitched whimper of a kind no one had ever heard him utter before.
At this there was a terrible baying sound outside, and nine enormous dogs wearing brass-studded collars came bounding into the barn. They dashed straight for Snowball, who only sprang from his place just in time to escape their snapping jaws. In a moment he was out of the door and they were after him. Too amazed and frightened to speak, all the animals crowded through the door to watch the chase. Snowball was racing across the long pasture that led to the road. He was running as only a pig can run, but the dogs were close on his heels. Suddenly he slipped and it seemed certain that they had him. Then he was up again, running faster than ever, then the dogs were gaining on him again. One of them all but closed his jaws on Snowball's tail, but Snowball whisked it free just in time. Then he put on an extra spurt and, with a few inches to spare, slipped through a hole in the hedge and was seen no more.
During the second half of the 1920s, Joseph Stalin set the stage for gaining absolute power by employing police repression against opposition elements within the Communist Party. The machinery of coercion had previously been used only against opponents of Bolshevism, not against party members themselves. The first victims were Politburo members Leon Trotskii, Grigorii Zinov'ev, and Lev Kamenev, who were defeated and expelled from the party in late 1927.
How does the conflict in the Animal Farm excerpt relate to the events in the historical passage?
Snowball's quick escape under the hedge is similar to how Stalin was expelled.
Snowball’s ideas about work relate to the Stalin’s efforts to gain total control.
Napoleon removes Snowball for his own purposes just as Stalin removed those in his own party.
Snowball's dream for the animals on the farm is the same as the dream of the Communist Party.
Answer:
Napoleon removes Snowball for his own purposes just as Stalin removed those in his own party.
Explanation:
"Animal farm" was written to be a great political allegory, pointing out sutuations of hypocrisy, seizure of power, inefficiency and abuse of authority between real political luders and their disastrous achievements in their countries.
This book directly refers to the history of societal union and shows how Stalin did not even consider his own allies in order to maintain his national power and dominance. This can be seen when Napoleon removes Snowball for his own purposes, just as Stalin removed those from his own party.
