Summarize the opposing opinions regarding Keeling Pilaro's request to play on an all-girls' field hockey team. Present the reasoning for both sides of the argument. Which line of reasoning do you consider to be stronger, and why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I believe that the line of reasoning that allows Pilaro to play in the women's team is stronger.

Explanation:

Pilaro is a boy who wants to play on his school's female hockey team. he is an extremely talented player and although he has a strong desire to join the male team, he believes he can contribute to the improvement of the female team, which many people agree, since he is an extremely talented and well-trained player and that his addition to the women's team has been very positive.

However, many people believe this is wrong, first because it hurts all the traditionalism of the sport and second because, as a boy, Pilaro would have biological advantages over girls. This argument can be overturned by the fact that well-trained girls can be so excellent in sports as much as boys and for that reason, I believe that the arguments in favor of Pilaro are stronger and more consistent.

Answers

Answer:

1. Next summer I am going to buy a new house.

2. I am quite tired; I will  go to bed now.

3. I believe Laura will like her brand new car.

4. Look at those guys! They  are going to rob the bank.

5. I promise, I won't do it again.                  

6. I think she will crash my dad's car.

7. I talked to John yesterday; we are going to visit you tomorrow.

8. I am sorry dad; I won't drink and drive again.

9. Watch out! That man is going to punch you.

10. It is really hot in here; I will open the window.

Explanation:

We use the future simple with -will-, to talk about predictions, where we do not know if an event or action is going to happen since there is no evidence to confirm it. Another use of will is to make promises, like in sentence number 5 ( I promise, I won't do it again.) and lastly to talk about decisions made at the moment like in sentence number 2 or 10 where the person decided at that moment what to do.

We use going to talk about arrange plans for the future, like in sentence number 1 or 7 where there is a plan to buy a house in the future or to visit someone on an exact date. The other use of going to is to talk about an action or event that is going to happen in the future and that there is evidence to confirm it. Like in sentence number 4, where the people saw the thieves, or in number 9, where the other person was moving the arm to punch him, this is evidence that an event is going to happen.

Answers

Answer:

The allusion in this sentence connects two ideas in order to make the point that Timothy is:

B. a person who behaves inconsistently.

Explanation:

The sentence we are analyzing here alludes to the book Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. The character in the story, Dr. Jekyll, is in a way haunted by the evil inside him. He is, in general, a nice, amiable person. But, after creating a serum that enhances his evil personality, he becomes Mr. Hyde, a cruel and violent man.

Saying someone will choose between being Jekyll or Hyde means this person behaves inconsistently, sometimes being good, sometimes evil. It refers to someone who has a dual personality. Having that in mind, the best option is letter B. a person who behaves inconsistently.

Today was an exciting day for Frosty. He spent the majority of the seasons stored safely under the stairs in a storage bin, but during winter he was carefully removed from the bubble wrap and placed lovingly on the mantle for display.

He loved to see the family put up the tree and fill it with all of the colorful ornaments that were tucked in beside him in the bin during the year. When the family was done decorating, Frosty gazed out at a room filled with garland and lights and listened to the children humming along to Christmas carols. The love in the room was undeniable.

It’s important to know, however, that life in a snowglobe was not all roses! The children absolutely loved to clink on the glass with their nails, pick Frosty up, and shake him like a rattle until the snowflakes attacked
him from every angle. Eventually, the blizzard would die
down, but there was a deafening silence as Frosty
waited for another person to pick him up to give
him another shake!

His favorite part of being on the mantle was
seeing the children open their gifts on Christmas
morning. Their excited voices were like music to
his ears and made up for all of the dizziness he
was subjected to during the holiday season.

What inference can be made about Nelda's relationship with Tracy?

B) Nelda sees Tracy as her competition, so their relationship is based on rivalry, not friendship
C) Nelda relies on Tracy and fears she will not find a friend like Tracy in her new neighborhood

muggy July day
B) The wind pressed in on Nelda's shoulders, humming in her ears, bringing with it shivers and still more fragments of elusive memories
C) The move to another state, because of her parents' employment relocation, would be stressful but exciting. There would be new friendships to form

Explanation:

this is for part b the txt says “her hometown,this old river, and her loyal friends would always be here to come back to visit. Her parents had promised she could come back and visit tracy and her family next summer

Part (A) The inference that can be made about the relationship of Nelda with Tracy is that Nelda values Tracy and sees her as a friend. Thus, option (A) is correct.

Part (B) the text that supports the option from part (A) is -" The wind pressed in on Nelda's shoulders, humming in her ears, bringing with it shivers and still more fragments of elusive memories". Thus, option (B) is correct.

What is the meaning of inferences?

Inference refers to the results, outcome or conclusion of the particular things. The conclusion is based on the facts being provided on the particular information.

The relationship between Nelda and Tracy suggests that Nelda values Tracy and regards her as a friend. This argument can be best supported by the text that The wind brushed against Nelda's shoulders, vibrating in her ears, bringing goosebumps and more shards of illusive memories.

Therefore, it can be concluded that option (a) from part A and option (b) from part B of the question is correct.
