What Historical Information Must The Reader Understand To Identify The Central Idea Of The Passage

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer is D. The struggle to end racial segregation

Explanation:

The passage explains the experience of Melba Pattillo, an African-American girl, as she speaks to white reporters to ratify her right to go to school "We have a right to go to that school, and I'm certain our governor... will decide to do what is just". This shows the main idea of the passage is the struggle of African-Americans for going to school without being attacked or judged.

Additionally, to understand this idea, the readers need to know about the struggle of African-Americans to end racial segregation. Indeed, when  Melba was a teenager (1950s), racial segregation was still a reality in many cities in the South, including Little Rock, Arkansas, where she lived. Due to this, when she and other African-American students requested to be transferred to a "white-school" they were attacked as most schools and white people resisted integration. Thus, the information the reader needs to understand to identify the central idea is "The struggle to end racial segregation".

Select the correct answer. Which of the following does Roosevelt advocate in the passage? A. prohibiting the passing of labor bills B. prohibiting child labor in the District of Columbia C. prohibiting people from employing laborers D. prohibiting compensation to injured laborers Message Regarding Labor Legislation (March 25, 1908) by Theodore Roosevelt I call your attention to certain measures as to which I think there should be action by the Congress before the close of the present session. There is ample time for their consideration. As regards most if not all of the matters, bills have been introduced into one or the other of the two Houses, and it is not too much to hope that action will be taken one way or the other on these bills at the present session. In my message at the opening of the present session, and, indeed, in various messages to previous Congresses, I have repeatedly suggested action on most of these measures. Child labor should be prohibited throughout the Nation. At least a model child-labor bill should be passed for the District of Columbia. It is unfortunate that in the one place solely dependent upon Congress for its legislation there should be no law whatever to protect children by forbidding or regulating their labor. I renew my recommendation for the immediate reenactment of an employers' liability law, drawn to conform to the recent decision of the Supreme Court. Within the limits indicated by the court, the law should be made through and comprehensive, and the protection it affords should embrace every class of employee to which the power of the Congress can extend. In addition to a liability law protecting the employees of common carriers, the Government should show its good faith by enacting a further law giving compensation to its own employees for injury or death incurred1 in its service. It is a reproach to us as a Nation that in both Federal and State legislation we have afforded less protection to public and private employees than any other industrial country of the world. I also urge that action be taken along the line of the recommendations I have already made concerning injunctions2 in labor disputes. No temporary restraining order should be issued by any court without notice; and the petition for a permanent injunction upon which such temporary restraining order has been issued should be heard by the court issuing the same within a reasonable time—say, not to exceed a week or thereabouts from the date when the order was issued.

Explanation:

Prohibiting child labor in the District of Columbia

Roosevelt advocated prohibiting child labor in the District of Columbia  in the passage.

What do you mean by Child labor?

The term "child labor" is frequently used to describe work that is detrimental to a child's physical and mental development, robs them of their youth, and violates their potential and dignity.

During the final quarter of the 19th century, as progressive child labor reformers gained popularity, state-level campaigns to criminalize the employment of young children grew. Reforms at the state level proved difficult to implement. Many states, especially in the South, opposed the initiative.

Opponents of child labor laws frequently denied the issue existed and actively praised the benefits of having kids in the workforce. By doing this, the state's attempt to impose uniform laws across the nation failed. By the early 1900s, many reformers had come to the conclusion that a federal statute could be the best course of action due to the failures at the state level. But such a vision was challenging due to the Constitution's limitations on the federal government's authority.

Therefore, Option (b) is correct.

Which part of the excerpt best demonstrates that the author’s purpose is to entertain children with a humorous story? "In the sea, once upon a time, O my Best Beloved, there was a Whale, and he ate fishes. He ate the starfish and the garfish, and the crab and the dab, and the plaice and the dace, and the skate and his mate, and the mackereel and the pickereel, and the really truly twirly-whirly eel. All the fishes he could find in all the sea he ate with his mouth—so!" "Till at last there was only one small fish left in all the sea, and he was a small ‘Stute Fish, and he swam a little behind the Whale’s right ear, so as to be out of harm’s way. Then the Whale stood up on his tail and said, ‘I’m hungry.’" "And the small 'Stute Fish said in a small 'stute voice, ‘Noble and generous Cetacean, have you ever tasted Man?’ ‘No,’ said the Whale. ‘What is it like?’ ‘Nice,’ said the small 'Stute Fish. ‘Nice but nubbly.’ ‘Then fetch me some,’ said the Whale, and he made the sea froth up with his tail. ‘One at a time is enough,’ said the 'Stute Fish." “If you swim to latitude Fifty North, longitude Forty West (that is magic), you will find, sitting on a raft, in the middle of the sea, with nothing on but a pair of blue canvas breeches, a pair of suspenders (you must not forget the suspenders, Best Beloved), and a jack-knife, one ship-wrecked Mariner, who, it is only fair to tell you, is a man of infinite-resource-and-sagacity.

Answer:

"In the sea, once upon a time, O my Best Beloved, there was a Whale, and he ate fishes. He ate the starfish and the garfish, and the crab and the dab, and the plaice and the dace, and the skate and his mate, and the mackereel and the pickereel, and the really truly twirly-whirly eel. All the fishes he could find in all the sea he ate with his mouth—so!"

Explanation:

Rudyard Kipling's story "How The Whale Got His Throat" is a children's story that tells of how the whale came to eat only small animals. This short animated and fun story is part of his "Just So Story".

In the given excerpts, the speaker or narrator describes a whale that eats all kinds of fishes, be it "the starfish and the garfish, and the crab and the dab, and the plaice and the dace, and the skate and his mate, and the mackereel and the pickereel, and the really truly twirly-whirly eel". He was capable of eating all types of fishes that he could find in the sea. This description of the types of fishes in the sea makes it easier and fun for the children to easily imagine in their own minds.  The use of childish words, the sing-song rhythm, and the colorful words gave it a humorous tone too.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Answer:

"Till at last there was only one small fish left in all the sea, and he was a small ‘Stute Fish, and he swam a little behind the Whale’s right ear, so as to be out of harm’s way. Then the Whale stood up on his tail and said, ‘I’m hungry.’"

Answers

Answer:

Diversification

Explanation:

A 401k is a type of retirement investment made by the employees. The employees set aside a specific amount of money which could be on autopilot to the 401K account. This money could be simply left as cash which would not result in any growth, or invested to yield returns for the employee. The diversification investment strategy aims at apportioning and spreading the investment to different asset categories.

The asset could be in form of equities, fixed income, or cash equivalents. When the employee spreads their contributions to various stocks, mutual funds, and or bonds he is diversifying his investment and thus will yield greater interest for the investor.

Read the excerpt from Enrique’s Journey. Two gangsters had overheard his description and kicked him mercilessly. "Next time, we kill you," the gangsters told him. The teenager, afraid for his life, asked to be deported. Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars." We should also make it easier for children to apply as refugees when they are still in Central America, as we have done for people in Iraq, Cuba, countries in the former Soviet Union, Vietnam and Haiti. Those who showed a well-founded fear of persecution wouldn’t have to make the perilous journey north alone. How do details from the excerpts support the purpose of advocating for children from Central America? Both include information that ask people to help children from Central America. Both offer solutions that show how victims from other countries have been helped. The excerpt from Enrique’s Journey uses quotations to show that it is better for these children to be sent back, and “Children of the Drug Wars” uses examples describing how other countries have dealt with the issue. The excerpt from Enrique’s Journey tells a story about what happened to one victim, and “Children of the Drug Wars” uses words that create an emotional response to persuade readers to take action.

Answers

Answer:

The excerpt from Enrique’s Journey tells a story about what happened to one victim, and “Children of the Drug Wars” uses words that create an emotional response to persuade readers to take action.

Explanation:

Sonia Nazario's "Enrique's Journey" revolves around the journey that a young boy Enrique undertook to be united with his mother. The perilous journey led him through many unfortunate encounters which shows how people like Enrique had to endure to get safely to America illegally.

Damon Barrett's "Children of the Drug Wars" presents the all too familiar scenario of what children have to endure and encounter in their lives during the war with drugs and how it has an impact on them and their future lives.

While the excerpt from "Enrique's Journey" tells of a single victim, the latter excerpt uses words to create an appealing emotional response to persuade readers to take action. Enrique's encounter with the gangsters terrified him so much that he asked to be deported. On the other hand, the speaker of the latter book asks for children of drug wars to be allowed to be taken as refugees so that they need not "make the perilous journey north alone".

Dear Mr. Jenkins,

It is with great joy and enthusiasm that I receive and welcome this promotion as headteacher of this great citadel of learning, St. Mary's school.

I have always wanted to impact my community, state, and the world with quality education and I'm glad I have the opportunity to do this on a bigger scale.

I have some great visions for this school which includes making it the best school, not only in the district but in the entire state of California. I plan to introduce some new activities in the school curriculum that will make learning easier for the students. These new activities will aim at improving the mental sharpness of the students, as well as making teaching more fun for the teachers.

I fully expect that before the end of two academic sessions, there will be significant improvements in learning and the students would have more hands-on experience.

When preparing for your speech, you should ________________.write the speech, then read it and revise over and over make sure the first draft is a fully fleshed-out script write it the way you would write a formal paper

Answers

Answer:

Write the speech, then read it and revise over and over.

Explanation:

Whenever preparing for a speech, the most important thing is to make sure that whatever you want to express or talk about in the speech are included. It need not necessarily be the perfect or full-fledged composition of the speech, but rather mention the main points first.

It is always preferable to write down the speech so that there can be revisions and alterations done before finalizing it. The first draft can be sketchy, even rough, but that's what makes it the first draft. It need not be a complete and correct speech at the first attempt. But more important than that, it is best to write down the speech, read it over and over again, make revisions and then make changes wherever necessary.
