Right away, from the door, I saw that the place had been ransacked. Drawers were open, things strewn all over the floor. Everywhere objects were overturned. My eyes took in a scene of terrible pillage.
Then I walked into Mr. and Mrs. Frank's bedroom. On the floor, amidst the chaos of papers and books, my eye lit on the little red-orange checkered, cloth-bound diary that Anne had received from her father on her thirteenth birthday. I pointed it out to Elli. Obeying my gesture, she leaned down and picked it up for me, putting it into my hands. I remembered how happy Anne had been to receive this little book to write her private thoughts in. I knew how precious her diary was to Anne. My eyes scanned the rubble for more of Anne's writings, and I saw the old accounting books and many more writing papers that Elli and I had given to her when she had run out of pages in the checkered diary. Elli was still very scared, and looked to me for direction. I told Elli, "Help me pick up all Anne's writings."

In all the history of scientific discovery there has never been, perhaps, so general, rapid, and dramatic an effect wrought on the scientific centres of Europe as has followed, in the past four weeks, upon an announcement made to the Würzburg Physico-Medical Society, at their December meeting, by Professor William Konrad Röntgen, professor of physics at the Royal University of Würzburg. The first news which reached London was by telegraph from Vienna to the effect that a Professor Röntgen, until then the possessor of only a local fame in the town mentioned, had discovered a new kind of light, which penetrated and photographed through everything. This news was received with a mild interest, some amusement, and much incredulity; and a week passed. Then, by mail and telegraph, came daily clear indications of the stir which the discovery was making in all the great line of universities between Vienna and Berlin. Then Röntgen's own report arrived, so cool, so business-like, and so truly scientific in character, that it left no doubt either of the truth or of the great importance of the preceding reports. . . .
Exactly what kind of a force Professor Röntgen has discovered he does not know. As will be seen below, he declines to call it a new kind of light, or a new form of electricity. He has given it the name of the X rays.

What types of persuasive techniques does Abigail use to win Proctor's affection in Act I? What arguments does she present, and what emotional tactics does she employ? Does she build a persuasive argument, or do you find problems with it? Explain.
She uses body techniques, using her own body to persuade him. Furthermore, she puts herself in a fragile and infantilized behavior using arguments that place her as a victim and place John as the one responsible for her passion. This really convinces John that he is totally persuaded and dominated by her.
In fact, John is also responsible for what happened between him and Abigail. However, Abigail is very manipulative and we should not victimize her.

PLS write a paragraph.
Write a thesis statement in response to the following prompt.
Prompt: Read the letter to the editor "I, Too, Have a Dream." How does the writer use structure and language to persuade her readers and support her feelings about immigration?
Dear Editor,
I have never taken the time to write a letter to the editor, but something happened that lit a fire in me. Last week, as my best friend Areliss and I headed to class, a group of college protesters blocked our path. Their signs read "GO HOME" and "ILLEGALS LEAVE." They shouted, "Send them home!" These protesters couldn't have known what Areliss felt as they shouted and waved pamphlets in our faces like tattered flags. But, I know their words were bullets to Areliss's heart. I wanted to fire back to the protestors: Where are your ancestors from?
Areliss came to the United States illegally, but she didn't do it intentionally. She was a baby. Her parents, seeking a better life, failed to follow the established immigration procedure, and they slipped into our country undetected. Once here, they raised Areliss, who would grow up never knowing any other home but America.
Under DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), Areliss has been granted the temporary opportunity to remain here while she completes her college education. DACA ensures, at least for a while, that she will not be deported to a country she has never visited in her entire life.
The term "DREAMers" refers to an act that would have protected these immigrant children if they attended college or served in the military. The DREAM Act did not pass, but its name has remained. DACA recipients have a dream: they dream that their lifelong contribution to the United States will one day be recognized, and they will be permitted to stay in the country they have always called home.
Now, DACA is ending. Those who oppose DACA say it encourages illegal activity, weakens our borders, and goes against the Constitution. I understand their concerns. In an era of heightened security, we must do our utmost to keep this great nation safe. That includes establishing a healthy monitoring system for immigration.
But, those who oppose DACA, who wield protest signs and who want to build walls, have never felt the dreaded doom of deportation. They forget that our long and colorful history has been built by many immigrants—including the immigrants who fought for and founded our country. They forget that Lady Liberty stands as a beacon, asking for the tired, the poor, and the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. We have a responsibility to them.
To send DREAMers away is to deny that responsibility. Programs like DACA exist to keep the American dream alive.
Yes, Areliss is a DREAMer. But I, too, have a dream. My dream is that DACA will be reinstated. My dream is that Areliss will be invited to stay in the country she has known as home since she was a baby and live out her dreams in the country she loves.
Sincerely,
Brittany Taylor
Answer:
In Brittany Taylor's letter to the editor, “I, Too, Have a Dream”, she uses some figurative language. She used Metaphors and Personification. She makes her ideas by including a problem and solution to persuade her audience to support reinstating DACA. Brittany Taylor's letter also says that she used real life experience and federal documents such as the DACA to support the fact that deportation is cruel.
Explanation:
I don't know if it's right but here is the answer I put in my test. :)
I guarantee you you'll get an easy A from this. A thesis statement should have only one sentence. Not multiple like the person above me. A better thesis statement would be:
Answer: "In Brittany Taylor's letter “I, Too, Have a Dream”, she uses metaphors, personification and problem/solution structure to show her support regarding DACA."
Reminder- don't forget to use your own words. Don't just copy word for word from my sentence.
'I have eat no meat these five days; yet,
come thou and thy five men, and if I do
not leave you all as dead as a doornail, I

What is the figurative language
Answer:
The figurative language that can be found in the passage is a simile.
Explanation:
A simile is a type of figurative language used to make comparisons between two different things. The purpose is to say those things have some characteristic in common. Similes need support words to make the comparison, such as "like" and "as". An example of simile would be: She has eyes as deep lakes. - Because her eyes are blue they are being compared to lakes.
Similes can also use "as... as", which is precisely what we have in "as dead as a doornail" in the passage. This expression is used to emphasize death. If you say someone was as dead as a doornail, you mean they were certainly dead, "very dead", so to speak.

Can You Really Build a House With Straw?
Yes, with dry, tightly baled straw you can build a durable, beautiful home. The Three Little Pigs1 had it all wrong! Homes, schools, parks, and even businesses have used straw bales to build sustainable, durable and attractive structures.
Sustainable building, also called green building, is “the practice of creating and using healthier and more resource-efficient models of construction, renovation, operation, maintenance, and demolition.” (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.)
Some home builders achieve this using materials that seem out of the ordinary. Straw bales are one of these alternative materials.
Building with straw is not new, but its use has been increasing. The buildings can be plain, fancy, large or small. They are easy to customize and lend themselves to artistic flourishes. Straw bale homes have withstood harsh climates and weathered well in cold, snowy winters and hot, humid summers. There are many straw bale homes around the world, some of which are over a hundred years old.
5 Advantages of a straw bale home over a conventionally built one include:
• They use a fast growing and renewable agricultural by-product2 that is otherwise wasted.
• They contain fewer toxins than conventional materials.
• They have a high insulation factor that lowers the cost of heating and cooling.
• The homes can be easily customized to the owner’s needs, both practical and creative.
• The cost per square foot is reasonable, and depending on the building methods chosen, can be very economical.
There are two ways to build a straw bale structure: load bearing and non-load bearing. A load bearing house uses the straw bales to provide the structural support for the building. Load bearing structures are most appropriate in mild climates. A non-load bearing house uses lumber or some other material for its primary support. The bales then shape the walls and provide the insulation. Places that get lots of snow need that extra support.
In construction, the bales are first stacked on a foundation. They are piled on top of each other to form the walls. Next, a moisture barrier is applied. The final layer is of plaster made with a base of clay, lime, or cement. Paint may be applied, but is not necessary. What is necessary is to keep the plaster in good condition and to regularly inspect for cracks. If the straw becomes damp, the house can be ruined by mildew.
Straw bale houses are often built in a workshop setting. Everyone is guided by an expert who has been hired to supervise the project. The owner gets plenty of help to build the home, and the other participants learn how to build with straw. They also get plenty dirty while stacking the bales, making the plaster and smearing it on!
Who would have imagined that people could build earth-friendly homes from straw? There are many other alternative materials being used to build interesting and sustainable shelters: rammed earth, cob,3 papercrete,4 cordwood,5 recycled glass bottles, structural insulated panels (SIPs,) tunnels (for partially underground “earthships”), car tires, and even plants (for green roofs and living walls.) It is exciting to imagine what new techniques are in store for the future.
If only that Little Pig had known enough to bale his straw properly, he would still be snug inside. The Big Bad Wolf would never have been able to blow his sturdy little house down.
1The Three Little Pigs: a popular children’s story featuring three pigs who build three different types of houses, including one of straw which is easily destroyed by the Big Bad Wolf
2by-product: a substance or product left over after something is harvested or made (wheat straw is a by-product of wheat)
3cob: a mixture of clay and chopped straw
4papercrete: re-pulped/re-ground paper fiber mixed with cement, clay or soil
5cordwood: short pieces of wood

When the engines and hoses were where he wanted them, [Chief Marshal Robert] Williams turned to one crew and said, "Now, hang on to her here!" Hannah adds to make her paragraph stronger. Thus, option C is correct.
What is a paragraph?"A paragraph can be defined as a collection of sentences that can be of any number it is usually taken from something or is written by someone. It is generally the whole paragraph is about a subject or a topic that is pre-decided."
it was told how the fire have started and what will be the result for the following as the engineer those were the one things that they wanted there was a chief who help the crew and was dictating them what to do. This was one of the thing that made the paragraph stronger was chief influence.

Explanation:
Which part of speech should you analyze to identify the narrator?
Answer:
You know a narrator is using third person when someone outside of the story is telling the story; the narrator isn't a character within the story. Look out for these pronouns: he, she, it, him, his, her, hers, they, them, and their.
Explanation:
The point of view is the part of the speech that you must analyze to identify the narrator.
We can arrive at this answer because:
The point of view determines who is the narrator of the story.The first-person point of view can be seen when the narrator introduces the pronouns "I," "me," "mine," "we," "ours."This type of narrator is a character who is quoting his or her own story or the things he or her witnessed.The third-person point of view is where the narrator presents the pronouns "he," "she," "his," "her," "they," "theirs."This type of narrator is not a character and is telling a story that he observes externally without participating in the story.The first-person point of view is limited because it only shows the story from a single person's point of view. The third-person point of view is omnipresent, as it shows the story in the eyes of many people.
