Can someone please create me 2 body paragraphs about unrealistic beauty standards. No plagiarism
Answer:
Explanation:
Looks don’t matter; beauty is only skin-deep. We hear these sayings every day, and yet we live in a society that seems to contradict this very idea. If looks don’t matter, why does the media use airbrushing to hide any flaws a person has? If looks don’t matter, why are so many young women harming themselves because they’re unhappy with the way they look? It’s because our society promotes a certain body image as being beautiful, and it’s a far cry from the average woman’s size 12. The unrealistic standard of beauty that women are bombarded with everyday gives them a goal that is impossible to reach, and the effects are devastating. These impossible standards need to be stopped, and society instead needs to promote a healthy body image along with the idea that women of all shapes and sizes are beautiful—not just women who are a size 2.
The media’s use of airbrushing is one of the major causes of these impossible standards of beauty. Leah Hardy, a former Cosmopolitan editor, admitted that this is true—many of the stick-thin models in Cosmo were actually struggling with eating disorders, but were airbrushed to look less unwell (Crisell). In an interview with the Daily Mail, Hardy stated, [the models had 22-inch waists, but they also had breasts and great skin. They had teeny tiny ankles and thin thighs, but they still had luscious hair and full cheeks. Thanks to retouching, our readers never saw the horrible, hungry downside of skinny. The models’ skeletal bodies, dull, thinning hair, spots and dark circles under their eyes were magicked away by technology… A vision of perfection that simply didn’t exist. (qtd. by Crisell) By airbrushing these models, the media gives young girls the idea that this body image is attainable—and by trying to look like these models, these girls become just as unhealthy.

To handle or use skillfully is to
A encompass
B depict
C constrain
D manipulate
Answer:
A
Explanation:
is the answer because encompass is skillful I think
Answer:
D
Explanation:
When you are manipulating something, typically a tool or object, you are able to use it to a skillful degree.
You can also use the process of elimination. To encompass can mean to surround or enclose something, as well as to include something. No mention of handling or using something skillfully. To depict only means to illustrate or convey something through the medium of art, such as paintings and drawings (i.e. a depiction of the Boston Massacre). Still, no mention of handling or using something skillfully. Finally, to constrain means to compel or force someone to a specific action, or to limit and restrain something. No mentions of using something skillfully.
Therefore, you can safely choose manipulate as a solid answer through the process of elimination.
Also, you can also apply what you know- a psychological manipulator is able to exploit, or use someone's emotions to their advantage, skillfully.

reposted personal narritive
Answer:
personal narrative
Explanation:
If my mind were a place, it would be distant and unlike any other place. The weather would be sunny. The sunlight wouldn't hurt my eyes, it would be just right. It wouldn't be too hot either. The air would be cool and there would be a constant breeze flowing through the grassy hills that would lead up to the beach. The beach would be wide and vast. It would continue past what my eyes would be able to see. And the ocean would be clear. I would be able to see the fish as they swam past reefs and rocks and other creatures of all sorts.
Upon continuation of that thought, there would be no one else there except me. Unless, of course, I wanted people there. But my mind would be a rural place, were outsiders would not be welcome. It would just be me, and my house on my beach, unless I decided to give them the directions there. My house would be beautiful, able to withstand any weather that would be possible. Hurricanes of any size and any type. My house would be whatever color I want, depending on the day or how I'm feeling. I wouldn't even have to paint it. It would just change effortlessly, like my emotions.
Nevertheless, as beautiful as my mind sounds, that doesn't mean that the place couldn't change. Hurricanes could show up, and while my house would be fine, the area surrounding it wouldn't. Loud noise and crazy thoughts might swarm my mind which would look like tropical storms and fierce winds. Any surrounding animals or natural life would be temporarily affected, maybe even ruined. Which is why it is a good idea to keep my place distant, far away from any people, or any storms. My beach would be kept pristine and beautiful, with it in even better condition than my house. The animals would be at ease, and so would the sky.
Who is
represented in the language of The
Declaration of Independence? What
populations were included/ excluded?
What populations are still excluded How
and why is this a problem?
Explanation:
The language of the Declaration of Independence has been argued by some historians to represent the views of "American colonists" because the declaration was written to mark the founding of the United States from the colonist's quest for independence.
Some believed that the populations mentioned when the declaration of independence was first made excluded women, native Americans, African Americans, and children, but included men.
The declaration of independence made no outright "condemnation of slavery" in a sense, some would say, it still excludes the African American populations.

According to paragraphs 8-10, how did the events surrounding Chang-bo’s experience with the state security agents begin to change his wife’s ideas about the government?
Answer:
When he returned home, he got a tongue-lashing from his wife that was almost harsher than the interrogation. It was the worst fight of their marriage. Her conduct had always been so impeccable and her devotion so genuine that it never occurred to her that she might be vulnerable. It helped, too, that Mrs. Song had at various times been head of the inminban in the building and commanded some respect from the state security officers. Chang-bo’s offhand remark was precisely the kind of thing that could result in deportation to a prison camp in the mountains if the offender didn’t have a solid position in the community.

Answer:
B. She and I will see the ballet Swan Lake on Friday night.
Explanation:

Use you and I when it is the subject of the sentence; use you and me when it is the object of the sentence.
If it is a subject, you should say they and I. If it is an object, you should say them and me.
