Answer:
Ever since the confrontation on the U.S.-Mexico border, both left and right have taken to social media, invoking the specter of Gaza to bolster their arguments and strengthen their accusations.
The optics have been, at times, nearly identical. On one side of a border fence, huge crowds of civilians – men, women and children – protest, while a smaller, more daring group of individuals approaches the fence directly, attempt to penetrate it and force their way through. In both cases, armed police and military troops have repelled the protests and attempts to cross the border, using tear gas, causing the crowds to flee, eyes burning in pain.

Read the following passage:
The thermometer had been in the back of the bathroom drawer for as long as I could remember. I brushed off the
dust and stuck it under my tongue even though I was unsure of its veracity.
What does "veracity" mean as it is used in this reading? Use this dictionary entry to answer the question:
ver- (prefix) truth
scale
accuracy
cleanliness
safety
Answer:
accuracy
Explanation:
According to the passage, the thermometer has not been used in a long while and had been abandoned, so the narrator picked it up from the drawer and proceeded to put it under his tongue even though he was not sure of its veracity.
The word veracity as used in this passage means accuracy because the thermometer had not been in use for a long while so he tried using it even though he wasn't sure of its accuracy.
Which quotation from this passage supports the
viewpoint that adolescents are not getting enough

"we are now eating 31 percent more calories than

"the average American now eats fifteen more
pounds of sugar a year than in 1970"
"entertainment media, including TV, computers,
video games, cell phones and movies”
"only one-third of high school students get the
recommended levels of physical activity
acts,"
Answer:
D. "Only one third of high school students get the recommended levels of physical activity."
Explanation:
Let's evaluate each answer choice.
"We are now eating 31 percent more calories than we were forty years ago."
This choice discusses calories, not exercise. Therefore, this cannot be the correct choice.
"The average American now eats fifteen more pounds of sugar a year than in 1970."
This choice pertains to sugar intake, not physical activity. This isn't the right choice.
"Entertainment media, including TV, computers, video games, cell phones, and movies."
This answer choice talks about screens and media, with no mention of exercise. Again, this cannot be correct.
"Only one third of high school students get the recommended levels of physical activity."
This choice must be correct. It mentions that teens, or high school students are not active enough.
So, choice D. "Only one third of high school students get the recommended levels of physical activity," is correct.

In 3–5 complete sentences, thoroughly explain Dr. King's main idea in this section and what specific details develop it. Provide at least two specific examples from the text to support your analysis of the main idea and how it's developed.
The correct answer to this incomplete question is the following.
The question is incomplete because it doesn't provide the text of reference.
However, we can research some ideas and conclude that the question is referring to the "Letter From Birmingham Jail," written by civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.
The main idea of the message is that Luther King questions why the law applies to some and not to all. For instance, here is part of the letter: "I was arrested Friday on a charge of parading without a permit. Now there is nothing wrong with an ordinance which requires a permit for a parade, but when the ordinance is used to preserve segregation and to deny citizens the First Amendment privilege of peaceful assembly and peaceful protest, then it becomes unjust."
We can see how Reverend Luther King questions why the law continues to support segregation acts against African Americans and other minorities.
Furthermore, King continues saying: "I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is, in reality, expressing the very highest respect for the law."
In this excerpt from his letter, Martin Luther King Jr. affirms that his willingness to stay in jail with no protest at all is a clear sign that he and his movement respect the law.
Answer:
The central idea in this section is to question why the law supports segregation. Dr. King states, " I was arrested Friday on a charge of parading without a permit.". Meanwhile, he also says, "If I lived in a communist country today where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, I believe I would openly advocate disobeying these anti-religious laws.".
This was my answer, but please paraphrase and write it in your own words :)
Explanation:
Here is the text for anyone who needs it...
[4] I was arrested Friday on a charge of parading without a permit. Now there is nothing wrong with an ordinance which requires a permit for a parade, but when the ordinance is used to preserve segregation and to deny citizens the First Amendment privilege of peaceful assembly and peaceful protest, then it becomes unjust.
[5] I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the very highest respect for law.
[6] We can never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was "legal" and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was "illegal." It was "illegal" to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler's Germany. But I am sure that, if I had lived in Germany during that time, I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers even though it was illegal. If I lived in a communist country today where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, I believe I would openly advocate disobeying these anti-religious laws.
Select the correct answer. What does this excerpt from George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion tell readers about Alfred Doolittle's character? DOOLITTLE: Don't say that, Governor. Don't look at it that way. What am I, Governors both? I ask you, what am I? I'm one of the undeserving poor: that's what I am. Think of what that means to a man. It means that he's up agen middle class morality all the time. If there's anything going, and I put in for a bit of it, it's always the same story: "You're undeserving; so you can't have it." But my needs is as great as the most deserving widow's that ever got money out of six different charities in one week for the death of the same husband. I don't need less than a deserving man: I need more. I don't eat less hearty than him; and I drink a lot more. I want a bit of amusement, cause I'm a thinking man. I want cheerfulness and a song and a band when I feel low. Well, they charge me just the same for everything as they charge the deserving. What is middle class morality? Just an excuse for never giving me anything. Therefore, I ask you, as two gentlemen, not to play that game on me. I'm playing straight with you. I ain't pretending to be deserving. I'm undeserving; and I mean to go on being undeserving. I like it; and that's the truth. Will you take advantage of a man's nature to do him out of the price of his own daughter what he's brought up and fed and clothed by the sweat of his brow until she's growed big enough to be interesting to you two gentlemen? Is five pounds unreasonable? I put it to you; and I leave it to you. A. He is a very shrewd person. B. He has a very high set of morals. C. He wants to climb the social ladder. D.

"My fellow-citizens, no people on earth have more cause to be thankful than ours, and this is sald reverently, in no spirit of boastfulness in our own strength, but with gratitude to the Glver of Good who has
blessed us with the conditions which have enabled us to achieve so large a measure of well-being and of happiness. To us as a people It has been granted to lay the foundations of our national life in a new
continent. We are the heirs of the ages, and yet we have had to pay few of the penalties which in old countries are exacted by the dead hand of a bygone civilization. We have not been obliged to fight for
our existence against any alien race; and yet our life has called for the vigor and effort without which the manlier and hardier virtues wither away. Under such conditions It would be our own fault if we
failed; and the success which we have had in the past, the success which we confidently believe the future will bring, should cause in us no feeling of [vanity], but rather a deep and abiding realization of all
which life has offered us; a full acknowledgment of the responsibility which is ours; and a fixed determination to show that under a free government a mighty people can thrive best, alike as regards the
things of the body and the things of the soul.
Much has been given us, and much will rightfully be expected from us. We have duties to others and duties to ourselves; and we can shirk neither. We have become a great nation, forced by the fact of its
greatness into relations with the other nations of the earth, and we must behave as beseems a people with such responsibilities. Toward all other nations, large and small, our attitude must be one of
cordial and sincere friendship. We must show not only in our words, but in our deeds, that we are earnestly desirous of securing their good will by acting toward them in a spirit of just and generous
recognition of all their rights. But justice and generosity in a nation, as in an individual, count most when shown not by the weak but by the strong. While ever careful to refrain from wrongdoing others, we
must be no less insistent that we are not wronged ourselves. We wish peace, but we wish the peace of justice, the peace of righteousness. We wish it because we think it is right and not because we are
afrald. No weak nation that acts manfully and justly should ever have cause to fear us, and no strong power should ever be able to single us out as a subject for Insolent aggression."
Roosevelt states that "Much has been given us, and much will rightfully be expected from us." What is one example from the text of something that is expected from us?
A. To achieve so large a measure of well-being and of happiness
B. To pay few of the penalties which in old countries are exacted by the dead hand
C. To show that under a free government a mighty people can thrive best
D. To single us out as a subject for Insolent aggression
I think it might be A.
Explanation:
I chose A. because we have been given great things so we must show our gratitude and work harder to achieve greater goals.

Discuss the difference betwen the connotative and denotative meanings of words and how they affect your understanding of a word.
Answer:
denotative meanings of a word are the simplest definition of it,
while connotative meanings are more detailed and described with the feelings and emotions linked with that certain word. The meaning has a more personal and cultural point to it rather than just the basic meaning.
connotative words allow the readers/listeners to feel and picture what the speaker is trying to convey.
for example:
"Clique," means a group of people (denotative meaning), but it carries a negative connotation. This is because "clique" is typically used in circumstances where the group is known for excluding other people.(connotative meaning)
Likewise, "club" also refers to a group of people (denotative meaning), but this word has a more positive connotation because a club is a collection of people that voluntarily come together for a shared passion or purpose.(connotative meaning)
Answer:
Answers will vary. Denotation is the dictionary definition of a word, whereas connotation is the implied meaning. Depending on the connotation, your feelings towards that word can change.

A.Coffee may taste good but many people drink too much.
B.Even decaffeinated coffee has some caffeine in it.
C.Each day millions of cups of coffee are consumed.
D.The average American drinks 3.4 cups of coffee per day
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The correct response is - Coffee may taste good but many people drink too much.
What is Caffeine?In the methylxanthine class of stimulants, caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant. It is used to improve cognitive function by raising alertness and attentional capacity. By inhibiting adenosine's ability to connect to the adenosine A1 receptor, caffeine increases the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
Such high caffeine intake might result in major health issues and even death. Caffeine usage is not recommended for kids, even though it may be safe for adults. It's important to warn teenagers and young adults about using too much coffee and combining it with drugs and alcohol.
The negative effects of caffeine include insomnia, jitters, restlessness, nausea, faster heartbeats, and other symptoms. Greater dosages may result in chest pain, anxiety, and headaches. When taken in really high doses, caffeine is probably dangerous. It may potentially result in death due to irregular pulse.

O It shows that the author has the ability to see the future.
It emphasizes the dreamlike world of the speaker's imagination,
O It highlights that the speaker has visited many far-off places
O It illustrates what the speaker sees looking down from the tree.

The answer is; It emphasizes the dreamlike world of the speakers imagination.

Process of elimination first- The looking down from a tree answer just doesn't make any sense, and although the other sometimes speaks in present tense or of things going to happen, it doesn't mean he can see the future. He talks in a very creative way to spark the readers own imagination.

Read the paragraph. I have been a nurse for twenty years. In that time, I have seen a great number of patients suffer because they did not have health insurance. One of the worst cases was a young mother of two who was diagnosed with early stage skin cancer. Because she could not afford treatment, the cancer spread from her skin to other parts of her body. By the time I saw her for the first time, the cancer had reached her brain and she could no longer be helped. This sort of thing should not happen to anyone. A strong universal health care system could prevent instances like this from occurring. What makes this appeal from the paragraph convincing? I have been a nurse for twenty years. It uses proven data as evidence. It appeals to the reader’s emotions. It shows the writer’s credibility. It reveals important statistics.
Answer:It doesn’t
Explanation: You shall use more detail and more expression for example how you felt when you had seen your patient getting worst. Explain why was it the worst to you as the worst or compare it to other patients whom wasn’t so bad.
The appeal in the paragraph is convincing because it appeals to the reader's emotions. The writer presents a powerful anecdote about a young mother of two who suffered due to a lack of access to health insurance that is in the third option.
What is health care insurance?The paragraph is effective because it uses a personal anecdote to evoke an emotional response from the reader.

By sharing this story, the writer makes a compelling case for the importance of universal health care. The emotional appeal is particularly effective because it engages the reader's empathy and encourages them to imagine themselves or their loved ones in a similar situation. This helps to create a sense of urgency around the need for universal health care and can motivate readers to take action to support this cause.
