Winter had blown into Illinois early this year, and still it was only December. The once soft, yellow midwestern fields had been transformed into a bleak and jagged landscape of snow and ice. Sadie's mother had been transferred by her company to McHale, Illinois in late October, and so the family had relocated from the warm and sunny California coast to the heart of the frigid Midwest. Despite the splendid new house surrounded by beautiful countryside, it had been difficult for Sadie to acclimate. She was fully conscious that she required time to adjust to the new surroundings. Her father explained that she must learn to adapt, but this seemed like an entirely different world. Ramira was reading this paragraph and came across the word "acclimate." At first, she decided that the word must mean "move." Is Ramira's understanding of the word acclimate correct?

1. Yes, it is correct; the context explains that Sadie did not want to leave California.

2. Yes, it is correct the paragraph tells about Sadie's dislike of the weather in the new place.

3. No, it is incorrect; the context explains that Sadie is struggling to "become accustomed to her new situation.

04. No, it is incorrect; the passage tells about Sadie's need to "focus on" a solution to her problem.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3. No, it is incorrect; the context explains that Sadie is struggling to "become accustomed to her new situation.

Explanation:

The term "acclimate" means struggling to adapt to a new environment or conditions. It is used for situational change.

So, when Ramira thought the word meant "move", her understanding is completely wrong. The context in which the word "acclimate" is used in the passage is to explain Sadie's struggle to be familiar and adapt to the colder climate whereas Ramira's understanding is completely off.

So, the correct answer is option 3.

Explain the rules of comma usage in the following situations:
Series of items
Introductory word or phrases
Interrupting phrases
Compound sentences








will give brainlist

Answers

Answer:

Series of items: Used to seperate items in a list. You need a comma after each item listed. A comma before the (and) is called an oxford comma.

ex. Go fetch the tomatoes, onions, and potatoes.

Intro word: The intro word or phrase just introduces the sentence and cannot stand alone. One comma after word or phrase.

ex. However, she did not like potatoes.

Interrupting: usually used to add on extra info, two commas will "box in" the phrase

ex. She walked down the street, Willhouby street to be exact, as she looked for the vegetable shop.

Compound: Both sides of the compound sentence must be able to stand alone. They are conjoined by a comma followed by a fanboys (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so)

ex. She fetched all of the vegetables, yet she still didn't like potatoes.

love in the time of cholera summary

Answers

Answer:

The main characters of the novel are Florentino Ariza and Fermina Daza. Florentino and Fermina fall in love in their youth. A secret relationship blossoms between the two with the help of Fermina's Aunt Escolástica. They exchange love letters. But once Fermina's father, Lorenzo Daza, finds out about the two, he forces his daughter to stop seeing Florentino immediately. When she refuses, he and his daughter move in with his deceased wife's family in another city. Regardless of the distance, Fermina and Florentino continue to communicate via telegraph. Upon her return, Fermina realizes that her relationship with Florentino was nothing but a dream since they are practically strangers; she breaks off her engagement to Florentino and returns all his letters. A young and accomplished national hero, Dr. Juvenal Urbino, meets Fermina and begins to court her. Despite her initial dislike of Urbino, Fermina gives in to her father's persuasion and the security and wealth Urbino offers, and they wed. Urbino is a physician devoted to science, modernity, and "order and progress". He is committed to the eradication of cholera and to the promotion of public works. He is a rational man whose life is organized precisely and who greatly values his importance and reputation in society. He is a herald of progress and modernization. Even after Fermina's engagement and marriage, Florentino swore to stay faithful and wait for her; but his promiscuity gets the better of him and he has hundreds of affairs. Even with all the women he is with, he makes sure that Fermina will never find out. Meanwhile, Fermina and Urbino grow old together, going through happy years and unhappy ones and experiencing all the reality of marriage. Urbino proves in the end not to have been an entirely faithful husband, confessing one affair to Fermina many years into their marriage. Though the novel seems to suggest that Urbino's love for Fermina was never as spiritually chaste as Florentino's was, it also complicates Florentino's devotion by cataloging his many trysts as well as a few potentially genuine loves. As an elderly man, Urbino attempts to get his pet parrot out of his mango tree, only to fall off the ladder he was standing on and die. After the funeral Florentino proclaims his love for Fermina once again and tells her he has stayed faithful to her all these years. Hesitant at first because she is only recently widowed, and finding his advances untoward, Fermina comes to recognize Florentino's wisdom and maturity, eventually gives him a second chance, and their love is allowed to blossom during their old age. They attempt a life together, having lived two lives separately for over five decades.

Alan read the following information on the NASA website while researching for a report on Mars.
NASA’s senior Mars rover, Opportunity, is examining rocks at the edge of Endeavour Crater for signs that they may have been either transported by a flood or eroded in place by wind.
Those scenarios are among the possible explanations rover-team scientists are considering for features seen just outside the crater rim’s crest above “Perseverance Valley,” which is carved into the inner slope of the rim.
The team plans to drive Opportunity down Perseverance Valley after completing a “walkabout” survey of the area above it. The rover’s drives now use steering motors on only the rear wheels, following a temporary jam of the left-front wheel’s steering actuator this month. Opportunity has not used its right-front wheel’s steering actuator since 2005, the year after it landed on Mars.
The mission has been investigating sites on and near the western rim of Endeavour Crater since 2011. The crater is about 14 miles (22 kilometers) across.

Answer: The last time that I have used classification was with my series of home chores. The classification helped me to effectively and efficiently get all of my chores done in a day. This was effective because I put process of sorting, grouping objects or events according to their similarities (e.g., all the cars, all the socks), and the process of classifying, involves grouping objects or events into pre-determined groups (e.g., when an educator asks students to sort the cutlery by putting all of the forks in one group, all of the spoons in another, and all of the knives in a third group), together. When I sorted and classified objects or events, determined by their the attributes that the objects or events share, and what attributes they don't share, or how they are alike and how they are different.

Which character in the story do you most admire and why?

write an essay in this topic pls help

Answers

Answer:

    my mom is the best character in the story because Not only did she bring us into this world, she nurtured us with her selfless love and care. A mother works relentlessly as a carer, teacher, mentor, friend, and role model without paying attention to her own needs and happiness.

She is the connecting thread of the whole family. and She's loving, caring, cheerful, brave, intelligent, strong, hard-working, and comprehensive. She always tries to make people glad and always tries to keep a smile on her face with everything she has been through.

my mom teaches us to trust and trust ourselves. Based on experience, mothers knew how important it is for people to believe that they are themselves to be entire, strong, and grow with a healthy self-evaluation. although My mother is my life's most important person. She's a wonderful example of working hard and loving. She is a role model in solving and continuing fighting challenges. She's such an excellent person, but a better mother.

My mother is my life's leading person. She's inspired to do all I do. She's an extraordinary person, I wouldn't call a friend of her. She was in my life from my birth and in my life,  she will always be whatever happens. She's the one that has luckily brought me into this world. From the day I was born, I learned to love her.

The feeling of a mother towards her children is difficult to describe. Mothers give their children a lot of support, be it very visible support or support from simple backgrounds. Moms not only support their children, they often also support the entire family structure. If everything is fine, a mother puts her children first, including her own comfort and joy. It is virtually impossible to describe the love of a mother. It's a feeling that only those who experience it can really understand. Famous saying says "God can't be everywhere and he's invented moms!"
