B.
These rural farmers were completely dependent on potatoes and entirely unprepared when, in 1845, a new form of plant disease spread across Ireland, destroying their beloved crop (Murray 4).
C.
There were other farmers who grew corn and barley. However, they exported most of these goods to Britain so that they could make more money (Murray 4).
D.
Irish peasants relied solely on potatoes; they were not ready when a new potato blight appeared in 1845. The disease ruined potatoes all over Ireland (Murray 4).
Answer:
The answer is D.
Explanation:
The correct answer uses different wording to give the same information found in the original text. When you paraphrase information from a book in an essay, make sure to include in parentheses the last name of the author of the book and the page number of the book where you found the information. Otherwise, you are plagiarizing. You plagiarize when you present someone else's ideas as your own.

Answer:

Explanation:
I know cause I did the test and got this correct.
Daily dilemma:
*You are a switchman in this example* There is a runaway trolley barreling down the railway tracks. Ahead, on the tracks, there are five people tied up and unable to move. The trolley is headed straight for them. You are standing some distance off in the train yard, next to a lever. If you pull this lever, the trolley will switch to a different set of tracks. However, your kid is tied down to this second set of tracks. What will you do? (For this one, feel free to choose either one of the two generic options, or get creative within reason)
The classic Trolley problem
It's been told and retold, with different variations, jokes, and ideas built on top of it. It's a great question in my opinion, it really does show where one's heart and ideas lie. Would you sacrifice the lives of strangers to save those you love? Or would you value the lives of these innocent people, with their own loved ones and stories ahead?
In reality, I don't think I've ever answered it for myself, but right now, for the sake of the question, I would go with saving my child. If I were a parent faced with this problem, hit in the heat of the moment with no time to think, derailing the track to kill the five in order to save my child would be my first instinct.
"Getting creative within reason" is very interesting. Obviously, people have tried to find loopholes in the original question—untying your child and setting the path that way, jumping in front of the train, stopping the trolley altogether. I don't have anything to add here, but I'm interested to see what others might come up with, and what dictates 'out of reason'.
— I hope this helps. Have a stellar day
Answer:
Assuming that the train could stop once done, I'd try and sacrifice myself. I would never be able to risk 5 innocent lives in return for my kid, nor would I want to lose my kid so five people could live. So, at the expense of my child's happiness, I'd jump in front of the train so all 6 people could be saved.
If the train can't be stopped, I'm sure it would be any parent's instinct to save their child. Five lives compared to a kid might seem like the easiest decision to make in the world. But as someone who's really indecisive and would never want to be in a scenario like this, the blood would be on my hands either way. I'd never be able to get over my kid dying and would want to save them, but I'd have to realize that those five people probably have their own family too, and I don't want to be responsible for hurting them like that. I also don't know how old they are, so some could be 80, some could be 5, or there could be whole range of ages, all of them having a whole life ahead of them.
But in all honesty, I'd probably save my kid. The love I'd have towards my own child would be nothing compared to that of five strangers, no matter now much of a "good" person I am. My choice may linger in the back of my mind for the rest of my life, but at least I'd have my kid with me
They meet…

Romeo: If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle sin is this;
My lips two blushing pilgrims ready stand
to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
Juliet: Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
which mannerly devotion shows in this,
for saints have hands that pilgrims’ hand do touch,
and palm to palm is holy palmer’s kiss.
Romeo: Have not saints’ lips and holy palmer’s too?
Juliet: Aye, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.
Romeo: O, then, dear saint let lips do what hands do
they pray; grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.
Juliet: Saints do not move, though grant for prayers’ sake
Romeo: Then move not while my prayer’s effect I take.

Those who argue that numbers exist assert that they exist outside of space and time. If numbers exist, they are typically what philosophers refer to as "abstract objects."
The arithmetic value of a number is one that is used to denote amount. As a result, a number is a mathematical concept used for counting, measuring, and labelling. As a result, mathematics is based on numbers.
Therefore, Option B is correct.

Explanation:
In this unit, you read two poems that have differing views about how to approach death: “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night” by Dylan Thomas and “Song of a Man Who Has Come Through” by D. H. Lawrence. Read these excerpts from each poem:
excerpt from “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night”
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
excerpt from “Song of a Man Who Has Come Through”
If only I am sensitive, subtle, oh, delicate, a winged gift!
If only, most lovely of all, I yield myself and am borrowed
By the fine, fine wind that takes its course through the chaos of the world
Song of a Man Who Has Come Through (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
In your opinion, which view on how to approach death is more logical or correct? Why?
Answer:
I would say the excerpt from do not go gentle into that good light
Explanation:
because it says more about death and expains in detail about what its like
please just use my answer as a guide for your answer because this is opinionated and also cause of plagerisim :)
Go not gently into that good night; old age should burn and rave as the day draws to a close. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. The villanelle has a total of nineteen lines and is composed of five tercets, each of three lines, and one quatrain, each of four lines.
Who is the speaker in Do Not Go Gentle?Although the speaker is Thomas's alter ego and is made up of autobiographical material, he is still not quite the same as the real Thomas. It's also interesting to note that the speaker doesn't reveal that he is speaking in the first person until almost at the end of the poem, in lines 17 and 18, respectively.
"Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Nightmare "'s message is that life is precious and should be defended at all costs. The speaker of the poem offers advice on how to approach death with ferocity and dignity rather than with resignation; he or she thinks that people should "burn and rave" as they get close to passing away.

Answer:
Hi luv! Traveling is different from what it was in the 1800s. Back then, we didn't have cars yet which would mean that people had to either A. Walk every where or B. Ride a horse/ horse and carriage. We now have cars which helps us travel from point a to point b in a shorter amount of time than what it would be back then. We also now have planes which can make us go from point a to point b in hours instead of having to travel months on boats. Have a nice day!

Wireless Controller Complications
Wireless video game controllers can sometimes be problematic, but in most cases there is an easy fix. One very common issue is that the controller will not stay connected. To resolve this problem, move closer to your gaming equipment. It also helps to move other nearby wireless devices, so that they do not interfere with your wireless signal. Sometimes the controller may lose connection because it simply does not have enough power. This dilemma can easily be solved by charging or replacing the batteries. If your wireless game controller is not acting properly, move closer, clear away other devices, and make sure it is properly charged.
Which graphic organizer would be best for this selection?
Answer:
A. Problem Solution.
Explanation:
This passage is talking about a problem with the controllers, but then also gives a solution on how to fix that problem. The line "To resolve this problem" is a great key word for problem and solution. Therefore, your answer would be A. Problem Solution.
Lincoln joined a volunteer company in the Black Hawk War in 1832. He served only three months in the war, and he never saw battle. Even so, Lincoln considered this event to be one of the greatest successes of his life. The men in his company elected him captain, and Lincoln was very proud of, yet humbled by, their confidence in him. How does this source add to the reader's understanding of Lincoln? It shows that he was frightened by battles and war. It shows that he took his leadership roles seriously. It shows that he had only a few successes in his life. It shows that he had too much confidence in himself.
Answer:
This source adds to the reader's understanding of Lincoln in the sense that:
B. It shows that he took his leadership roles seriously.
Explanation:
According to the passage, one of the reasons why Lincoln considered his time in the war successful was the fact that he was elected captain by the men in his company. That already shows Lincoln values his role as a leader. But the passage also makes a point of mentioning that he was "very proud of, yet humbled by, their confidence in him." This information lets us know that he was not an overly confident men. Maybe he wouldn't have volunteered himself to become a captain but, since the men trusted him, he was happy to do it. With that in mind, we can choose letter B as the best option:
B. It shows that he took his leadership roles seriously.

How does the reader respond in the last paragraph blog : forest forever
Answer:
She gives a rebuttal with support.
Explanation:
A rebuttal refers to a response to an opponent's counterclaim, addressing the counterclaim and arguing why the opponent's argument is not solid, and disproving it with evidence.
In this case the following comment is a counterclaim by an opponent who disagrees with the authors original argument: "We need to encourage kids to get more exercise. New sports facilities would inspire kids to get outside more and get moving. I’m all for it. "
The author responds to the above counterclaim by providing the following rebuttal with evidence to support it: "Exercise is good, no doubt about that, but you don’t need it from sports facilities or team sports. The Sequoia Nature Preserve has miles of paths where people walk, even jog. And when kids are walking in the forest, they area also breathing cleaner air and the surroundings are peaceful—it’s a healthy environment for people to get exercise and just get away from city life.
