Which statement best expresses a theme of the poem? A Taking risks is a normal part of growing up. B Being brave helps us earn respect from others. C It’s important to have friends who support your decisions. D We can make poor decisions when we seek approval from our friends.MOMENTUM ,

Answer:

Girl, I have the same question. I'm not 100% sure that this is correct but I personally think the answer is C

Explanation:

I say this because in the story, The author was saying really deep things about their friends, for example, it says "Your friends won’t try to talk you out of the barrel,

or your brag to go first, which has nothing to do with bravery.

And you’re so hungry to earn their love you forget

to claim first your, perhaps, last look at this mountain—

crab apples hanging sour in the sun"

I hope this is the correct answer!

Marshall is revising a narrative about a detective attempting to solve a series of “catnappings.” Read this portion of his draft.

Sgt. Summers stared at a map that showed the locations of the homes from which the animals had been taken. They seemed to form a rough circle, except for one that was almost in the center of all the others. That seemed odd. The person who lived in the house was Betsy Primer. She couldn’t have anything to do with the missing cats. Or could she?

Which detail could Marshall add to this paragraph that would be relevant to the story?

A. The missing cats were all ages and breeds.
B. Betsy was a sweet woman who loved animals.
C. Sgt. Summers had worked on a similar case years before.
D. Sgt. Summers hoped to solve this case soon, since he had other cases he needed to attend to.

What are three things that the bittering family did in this history

You have read "Flying Without Wings," in which the author describes different animals, other than birds, that can fly. Write an essay analyzing how the author develops and refines the central idea of the text. Use evidence from the text to support your response.

As I write, there is a curious little brown-eyed creature darting around about me in the trees. Now, spread out like a parachute, it springs in the air, coming down lightly, only to dart to some other elevation, thence to repeat its antics again and again.

2
As you must by this time suspect, this creature is a flying squirrel—one of the familiar examples of a large number of animals that can move through the air without wings. If we closely examine this pretty little creature, we find that between the fore and hind legs there is an expansion of the skin, which, when the legs are spread out, offers a decided resistance to the air and buoys the animal up exactly as though it carried a parachute. When it is in midair, notice how careful it is to hold its feet and hands out as far as possible, to catch all the air it can. If we look closely, we shall find attached to each of the hands delicate bones, which, when the squirrel is in flight, act as booms for the curious sail in front.

3
But it is in the woods, in their native haunts, that the beautiful animals make their most wonderful leaps. From the tops of the tallest trees they launch themselves fearlessly into the air, coming down with a graceful swoop from a hundred feet or more; then, by a movement of the head, change their course to an upward one, they rise ten or twelve feet, and finally alight upon the tree of their choice. They immediately scramble to the top to soar away into the air, thus traveling through the woods from tree to tree much faster than you can follow them. How alike they are to birds, building nests for their young, and moving through the air with almost equal freedom!

4
One of the most curious of this family is the sugar squirrel—a beautiful creature, with large, curling ears of a delicate ash color above and white beneath. Like many squirrels, it is a nocturnal or night animal, lying concealed in its nest in some hollow tree until the sun disappears, when it comes out, and spends the night in wonderful leaps from tree to tree, in search of food and perhaps amusement. When descending from a great height, it seems as though they must inevitably dash headlong against the ground, so precipitate is their flight, but this never happens. That they are able to change the direction of their flight while in midair seems a very natural and reasonable supposition, though only on one occasion has the accomplishment of this feat been observed.

5
In the forests of the islands constituting the Indian Archipelago is found a curious flying animal that resembles the lemur and the bat. The natives call it the colugo, and also the “flying fox.” Like bats, these animals sleep in the daytime, hanging from the limbs and branches of trees, head downward, but as evening comes on, they sail forth, often doing great harm to the fruit on the neighboring plantations. In some parts of Java they are so numerous that it is found necessary to protect the fruit trees with huge nets. The extent of their flight through the air is something astonishing. They sometimes drop to the ground and hop along with a shuffling kind of leap, but if they are alarmed, they spring to the nearest tree and in a moment reach its top by a series of bounds. Out upon the branches they dart, and with a rush are off into space. Sailing through the air like some great bird, down they go obliquely, swift as an arrow, a hundred and fifty feet or more, rising again in a graceful curve and alighting safely on a distant tree. In these great leaps they carry their young, which cling to them, or sometimes follow them in their headlong flight, uttering hoarse and piercing cries. The colugos live almost exclusively on fruit, preferring plantains and the young and tender leaves of the cocoa-palm. These flying lemurs are perfectly harmless. They have lovely dark eyes and very intelligent and knowing faces.

6
So, the next time you are out in the woods, look closely at the animal flying overhead. You may be surprised at what you see.

"One Today"—excerpt

Silver trucks heavy with oil or paper-
bricks or milk, teeming over highways alongside us,
on our way to clean tables, read ledgers, or save lives-
to teach geometry, or ring-up groceries as my mother did
for twenty years, so I could write this poem for all of us today.

The last lines of the second stanza creates a sense of unity by referencing (4 points)

the shared experience of listening to loud noises
the shared experience of the American workforce
the shared experience of teaching and learning
the shared need to move and travel

Christopher Reeve was born on September 25, 1952, in New York City. His mother was a journalist, and his father was a professor. As a kid he played sports, did well in school, and liked acting. His passion for acting goes back to playing with his brother when they were little. Reeve acted in his first play at the age of nine. After attending college, taking acting classes, and acting in many plays and movies, Reeve landed his biggest role. In 1978, he played the title role in Superman. He received very positive reviews for his performance and starred as Superman in all the sequels. Reeve was soon acting as the lead role in dozens of movies after Superman. Once well-known, Reeve used his celebrity status for good causes, such as visiting very sick children through the Make-A-Wish foundation. He was also a track and field coach at the Special Olympics.

Besides acting, Reeve was also a licensed pilot and liked horseback riding. He learned to ride horses for a movie role, and he continued riding in his free time. Unfortunately, while riding one day in 1995, Reeve fell from his horse and became paralyzed from the neck down. Being confined to a wheelchair did not hold back Reeve from being socially active, and after many surgeries and rehabilitation, he decided to dedicate his life to helping people with spinal-cord injuries. He created the Christopher Reeve Foundation, which supports the improvement of the lives of people with disabilities and helps fund research to find a cure for paralysis. He was also politically active, working with senators to make sure that people with disabilities were treated fairly in the workplace. Reeve received many awards for his dedication to public service. He also wrote two books about his experiences, and a documentary was made about his life. Reeve passed away in 2004, but his legacy lives on today. He touched the lives of many people and showed us what it means to overcome extreme odds by never giving up.

Which fact would be most appropriate to include in a yearbook page about Reeve?

Reeve created a foundation to help people with disabilities.
Reeve spent time working with senators.
Reeve learned to ride horses for a role in a movie.
Reeve enjoyed playing with his brother when they were little.
