Story eleven

Here is the beginning:


What they don’t understand about birthdays and what


they never tell you is that when you’re eleven, you’re


also ten, and nine, and eight, and seven, and six, and five,


and four, and three, and two, and one. And when you wake up


on your eleventh birthday you expect to feel eleven, but you


don’t. You open your eyes and everything’s just like yesterday,


only it’s today. And you don’t feel eleven at all. You feel like


you’re still ten. And you are—underneath the year that makes


you eleven.


Like some days you might say something stupid, and


that’s the part of you that’s still ten. Or maybe some days you


might need to sit on your mama’s lap because you’re scared,


Question:


Lines 10–11: Describe the language in these lines. Why might the author have chosen this kind of language?
"Like some days you might say something stupid, and

Why were there disagreements regarding the peace treaties with Latin American countries?

Answers

Answer:

South America's predominant democratic regimes and its increasing interdependence on regional trade have not precluded the emergence of militarized crises between Colombia and Venezuela or the revival of boundary claims between Chile and Peru. This way, how can we characterize a zone that, in spite of its flourishing democracy and dense economic ties, remain involved in territorial disputes for whose resolution the use of force has not yet been discarded? This article contends that existing classifications of zones of peace are not adequate to explain this unusual coexistence. Thus, its main purpose is to develop a new analytical category of regional peace for assessing this phenomenon: the hybrid peace. It aims to research the evolution of security systems in South America during the previous century and build a new, threefold classification of peace zones: negative peace zones, hybrid peace zones, and positive peace zones.

Answers

Answer:

on July 26, 1948, he issued an executive order abolishing segregation in the armed forces and ordering full integration of all the services. Executive Order 9981 stated that “there shall be equality of treatment and opportunity for all persons in the armed forces without regard to race, color, religion, or national origin.” The order also established an advisory committee to examine the rules, practices, and procedures of the armed services and recommend ways to make desegregation a reality. There was considerable resistance to the executive order from the military, but by the end of the Korean conflict, almost all the military was integrated.

What prevailing winds/global wind pattern would someone sailing from Africa to the USA use?

Answers

Answer:

I think the answer would be trade winds

Answer:

The Coriolis Effect, in combination with an area of high pressure, causes the prevailing winds—the trade winds—to move from east to west on both sides of the equator across this 60-degree "belt."

Explanation:

As the wind blows to about five degrees north and south of the equator, both air and ocean currents come to a halt in a band of hot, dry air. This 10-degree belt around Earth's midsection is called the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone, more commonly known as the doldrums.

Kyle writes an essay about indentured servants in the 1800s:

Unlike the colonial era, indentured servants in the 1800s were mostly born in the United States. Many indentured servants were young people who hoped to gain a better life after a period of work. They committed themselves to a master for a period of several years. The master usually paid some of their expenses and was required to free them at the end of their contract period.

Which statement corrects a mistake in Kyle's essay?

A. Indentured servants in the early 1800s were usually immigrants.

B. Most indentured servants were older people who had fallen on hard times.

C. Indentured servants had the right to stop working whenever they wished.

D. Masters rarely freed indentured servants at the end of a contract.

The 6,000-mile journey traveled by the People’s Liberation Army from their base in Jiangxi province to Shensi is known as the __________.

Answers

People’s Liberation Army

Answer:  The correct Answer is "B"

Explanation:

The reason why I think the answer is B is because The Long March (Chinese: 长征; pinyin: Chángzhēng, lit. Long Expedition) was a military retreat undertaken by the Red Army of the Communist Party of China, the forerunner of the People's Liberation Army, to evade the pursuit of the Kuomintang (KMT or Chinese Nationalist Party) army. There was not one Long March, but a series of marches, as various Communist armies in the south escaped to the north and west. The best known is the march from Jiangxi province which began in October 1934 and ended in Yan'an, Shaanxi province in October 1935. The First Front Army of the Chinese Soviet Republic, led by an inexperienced military commission, was on the brink of annihilation by Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's troops in their stronghold in Jiangxi province. The Communists, under the eventual command of Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, escaped in a circling retreat to the west and north, which reportedly traversed over 9,000 kilometers (5600 miles) over 370 days.[1] The route passed through some of the most difficult terrain of western China by traveling west, then north, to Shaanxi.

The Long March began the ascent to power of Mao Zedong, whose leadership during the retreat gained him the support of the members of the party. The bitter struggles of the Long March, which was completed by only about one-tenth of the force that left Jiangxi (about eight thousand of some hundred thousand), would come to represent a significant episode in the history of the Communist Party of China, and would seal the personal prestige of Mao Zedong and his supporters as the new leaders of the party in the following decades. SO in conclusion if I had to choose an answer, it would be B. Hoped this helped! :)
