Review the paragraph and answer the question that follows.

[1] People say the necessities of life are food, water, shelter, and clothing, but I think a fifth item should be added to the list: Scotch tape. [2] Hardly a day passes that I do not use this sticky cellophane for some beneficial purpose. [3] When I get so excited about my world history class that I tear a page in the book, Scotch tape comes to my rescue. [4] At night when I don't feel like rolling my hair, what do I do? [5] I tape it in place, of course. [6] I may look like a twentieth-century mummy, but the purpose is accomplished. [7] Have you ever been dressed up to eat at a big, fancy restaurant? [8] Just as you get out of the car someone cheerfully announces, "Your hem is down!" [9] No need to panic; just stick it up with--you guessed it--scotch tape!


Which sentence is the topic sentence? Type the sentence number in the box.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: [1] People say the necessities of life are food, water, shelter, and clothing, but I think a fifth item should be added to the list: Scotch tape.

Explanation:

Although not always, the topic sentence is usually found in the first paragraph of a text. This text is an example of that custom. The second paragraph might seem like a valid option because it highlights the narrator's constant need for scotch tape. However, only the first sentence shows the kind of worship this person has for that item, stating that it should be considered as much of a life necessity as food, water, shelter, and clothing.

Answer 2

Answer: [1]  People say the necessities of life are food, water, shelter, and clothing, but I think a fifth item should be added to the list: Scotch tape.

Read the paragraph and dictionary entry.
A recent editorial suggested the candidates ignored the issues of greatest interest to the citizens. This caused a majority of voters to
purposely neglect voting. The low voter turnout at the polls yesterday supports the idea that the voters are jaded.
Dictionary
jaded (jā' did)
1. adj. overworked, exhausted, weary
2. adj. bored, tired, or uninterested from having too much of something
3. adj. hardened due to negative experience or living to excess; indifferent
When Paul first read this paragraph in the newspaper, he thought the word jaded meant "busy." He looked it up in a dictionary to see if he
was correct.
In the context of this paragraph, is Paul's understanding of the meaning of jaded correct?
1. No, because people were simply uninterested in the election,
O 2. No, because people had a negative experience with the candidates.

Haley demands that Shelby give him some horses to search for Eliza andHarry. The slaves have a strategy to stall him, however. First, they find it "curiously difficult" to round up all the horses. Mrs. Shelby joins in as well, by defying her husband and telling the slaves to "Be careful of the horses; don't ride them too fast." A slave, Sam, understands his mistress' meaning and places a burr under the horse's saddle so that it bolts and throws Haley. Everyone involved in the horse throwing Haley finds this quite funny. It takes several hours to catch the horse, and Sam must first rub it down before Haley can ride it. Thus, the slaves outwitted the slave trader and bought much precious time for Eliza.

we are one,
Bright as a sun, and bold as an eagle
Believer's Hymn for the Republic – by Amanda Gordon

12 score and 3 years ago, to be exact,
Our founders dared to declare
The world's most revolutionary act:
A pact sworn for liberty and equality.
Out of many, was born one people;
A teeming nation made of nations,
At its very foundation a dream
For life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.



Today, we gather so that our Founders' words do not go diminished.
But also so that the work does not go unfinished.
For it's not just in a declaration of independence
But the everyday declaration of its descendants
That make a people equal.



It is our right and our role
To remember these words scratched on a scroll,
So we may live them and heal our nation whole.
We roll up our sleeves, we believe in the dream,
And these American stories, in the glory of the struggle,
For it is from our struggle that comes our nation's strength,
For the lengths that we fight for what is right
Is the fullest measure of our country's might.



And while we cannot shake or cast aside our past,
Every day we write the future. Together we sign it,
Together we declare it, we share it,
For this truth marches on inside each of us:



Americans know one another by our love of liberty.
When in fact, we are liberated by our love for one another.
We understand that a house divided cannot stand.
So let us make a pact to be the country that acts
As compassionate as we are courageous.



In the declaration's pages, we write a new order for the ages,
Where out of many, we are one,
Bright as a sun, and bold as an eagle,
A nation of all people, by all people,
For all people.





Let this fourth of July
Move forth our cry to redeem the dream.
As we remember those words forever ignited
That we the people have so long heard and recited.
That we are right to stand
But are revolutionary when we stand united.

Figurative language 'The meat sizzled and cracked as I laid in into the hot pan.

Answers

Answer:

The figurative language that can be found in the sentence is onomatopoeia.

Explanation:

Onomatopoeia refers to words that represent a sound by imitating it. There are several verbs that come, originally, from imitating a sound, such as: to buzz, to clang, to click, to tinkle, to jingle, and to chime, among others. The verbs to sizzle and to crack are also examples of onomatopoeia. To sizzle mostly refers to the sound food makes while being fried, although it can also refer to the sounds that fire makes while burning. The same goes for to crack, although it can refer to a more extensive range of sounds, such as explosions, or the sound of something breaking. Therefore, we can safely say the sentence "The meat sizzled and cracked as I laid it into the hot pan" uses onomatopoeia.

Explain how to put a radio collar on a tree kangaroo. Describe what causes them to fall off

Answers

Answer: Scientists must do a careful mission to approach the tree kangaroo and use anesthesia on it, then carefully put on the radio collar, and wait for the results. These collars fall naturally after 5 months.

Explanation: To put on a radio collar, the scientists must approach a tree where tree kangaroos climb and start barking like a dog, so that the tree kangaroo doesn't get down before time. Then, they cut sticks and build a low fence called “im” around the tree, so If the tree kangaroo falls, it will slow him down. One of the scientists must climb a tree next to the Saurauia, the kangaroo won't like it, and it will descend on the prepared territory. They grab it and put it in a bag, to later use anesthesia. Once the kangaroo is asleep, the experts hold the collar and carefully put it on its neck, without hurting it. The radio collars fall automatically from tree kangaroos after five months but give time to scientists to get the needed data.
