HELP WITH ENGLISH ASSIGNMENTS PLEASE!
Read the paragraph from the text and the directions that follow.

But, when all the girls in town are seeking to steal your husband, what are you going to do about it, if you are a woman of forty-five with a heaviness around the hips and a disinclination to learn the camel walk? Nor can you get the poachers off the scent by crossing the trail with an eligible bachelor. Logically, the young things should have enough sense to ignore a preempted husband and attend to the serious business of getting themselves husbands. But they haven’t. They seem to prefer the husbands of the other women. And curiously, the more they engage in this exotic sport of poaching, the less keen they become about owning a property for somebody else to poach on.

According to the author, what is one reason that flappers steal older women’s husbands? Answer choices for the above question

1: All flappers prefer men who are married.

2: There are not enough single men available.

3: All flappers want to be married themselves.

4: There are no eligible bachelors who prefer flappers

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Hi there! My best guess for this question would be 1: All flappers prefer men who are married.

Explanation: Every other answer just doesn't feel right to me for some reason...?

With 2, the speaker never said that there were not enough single men available for flappers. In fact, they were leaving to go FOR the flappers since they were "more beautiful" than their wide-hipped and grey wives, which is why 4 makes no sense to me.

Lastly, choice 3 is just really confusing to me, so I'd rather not choose it for the sake of misinterpreting it...

Please feel free to disagree with my answer. I hope that this helps out in some way. :)

Answer:

this is the passage you need for the answer

Explanation:

What Is It That You Really Need?

    Sometimes it seems as if we never get what we want. But sometimes when we do get what we want, we realize that it’s not what we really want. That’s because our wants don’t always match our needs. The solution to this problem is to try to understand and satisfy our real needs.

    Psychology is the scientific study of the human mind and human and animal behavior. A lot of psychological research has been done about human needs and how they should be satisfied. Studies have shown that humans have basic needs that must be consistently met. Studies have also shown that there is an order of importance in which these needs must be satisfied. An individual’s basic functional needs must be satisfied before he or she can go on and meet other more creative and self-fulfilling needs.

    Abraham Harold Maslow (1908–1970) was an important psychologist who became famous for his studies regarding human needs and wants. He wrote two major works, Motivation and Personality and Toward a Psychology of Being. Maslow stressed that basic needs must first be satisfied before a person is able to be creative or function independently. He created his famous hierarchy of needs theory, which separates human needs into five layers. Each layer in the hierarchy must be satisfied before a person can proceed to the next layer. The five layers of human needs, according to Maslow, are as follows:

The physiological needs

The safety and security needs

The love and belonging needs

The esteem needs

Self-actualization

The Physiological Needs

    The physiological needs include the basic requirements for physical survival, such as oxygen, water, protein, salt, sugar, minerals, and vitamins. Other physiological needs include a proper body temperature and pH balance, physical activity, a lack of pain, and adequate sleep.

The Safety and Security Needs

    These needs become relevant only after the physiological needs are largely satisfied. The person will then become increasingly interested in such things as being safe and protected and having a stable life. He or she might also begin to need structure and order.

The Love and Belonging Needs

    Once a person feels reasonably secure in life and has his or her basic bodily needs satisfied, he or she wants to be a part of a community or group, to have friends, and to be in loving and caring relationships.

The Esteem Needs

    This level of needs has two components. The first covers a person’s needs to be respected by others and achieve fame, attention, and dignity. The second component of this level of needs covers a person’s needs for self-respect, confidence, independence, and freedom.

Self-Actualization

    The highest level is different from the other levels in a crucial way. All the previous levels discuss needs that need to be satisfied; once they are satisfied, we no longer think about them. If we feel well fed, safe, appreciated, and confident, we don’t think about those needs anymore. But on the complex level of self-actualization, a person continues to feel this need even after he or she has achieved it. This need drives us to be the most complete people we can—to be the best that we can be.

    The next time you are feeling as if something is missing from your life, think about Maslow and his theory of needs. Have you really satisfied the basic needs before trying to satisfy the higher levels of needs? Maybe you need to redefine what you are really searching for.

Tips to write an opinion essay

Answers

Answer:

1. Know what an opinion essay is. An opinion essay states an opinion, but it isn’t simply an editorial in which you say only what you think. This type of essay requires you to present facts and evidence to support your point of view. You are explaining why your viewpoint is right but defending it like the conclusion to a research paper.

2. Develop your view on the subject before writing. Since an opinion essay requires you to have an opinion, it’s important to develop that opinion before you start writing. Why do you believe in your point of view? Be sure you can explain why you are right and can formulate your point of view clearly and effectively.

3. Do your research. It may seem obvious, but it’s important to research your topic before you write. You may find that reading other people’s opinions will change, shade, or shape your own point of view. The worst thing you can do is to write the entire essay only to discover at the end of that there are facts that completely change your opinion.

4. Don’t save your opinion for the end. The reader isn’t going to wait around for the end of your five-paragraph or five-page opinion essay to find out what you think. You need to be sure that your opinion is clearly stated at the beginning of the essay, in the thesis statement, so that the reader understands your perspective from the start. This will also help to ensure that every part of the essay works to support the thesis.

5. Begin with an attention-grabbing opening. Your essay should grab the reader’s attention from the first line. Be sure to start with a strong hook, such as a dramatic fact or statistic, or an anecdote, to draw the reader in and interest them in learning more. After all, if readers aren’t interested, they won’t listen to your opinion.

6. Never title your essay with a question. A wit once said that if you title your opinion essay with a question, the reader will always answer “no.” More accurately, readers will answer the question for themselves in terms of their own experience, and that will make them less open to your perspective and point of view.

7. Start with your strongest argument first. Your opinion essay should begin with the strongest and most convincing reason you are right and then work down to less important points. Readers want to know right away what the best argument is because, if they don’t believe it, the rest won’t convince them. Nobody likes to wait for the good stuff.

8. Try to use the active voice. Academic writing often causes writers to slip into passive-voice constructions. For a research paper, this isn’t as much of a problem as it is for an opinion essay. This is your opinion, so take ownership of it with the active voice.

9. Don’t be afraid of a little emotion. A research paper focuses entirely on facts, evidence, and reasoning, but an opinion essay has room for emotion. Tug at the reader’s heartstrings a little to show why your perspective is emotionally correct, not just logically correct.

Are the Wakandans wrong to distance themselves from the struggles of black people in Africa and around the globe? Why or why not? Be specific.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, they are wrong to do so.

Explanation:

First, it is best to establish that Wakanda is a fictional state which appeared in American comic books. Perhaps, its creator wondered what a Civilized Africa would have looked like today if it was left undisturbed by colonial influence.

That is by the way.

According to the description of Wakanda, it was rich in tech and rare minerals such as Vibranium which can absorb energy and release it kinetically. Wakanda, according to fictional sources is the most technologically advanced nation on the earth.

Long story short, Wakanda had all the tech it needed to protect itself and some.

If Wakanda was that self-sufficient and so advanced, it means that it had all the power required to act as a voice and where necessary, a protector of black people and Africa all around the world.

We see America holding a similar position, deploying military personnel where necessary. One of the reasons, why it does this is because it can.

To whom much is given, much is expected.

If there was a vacant spot for a nation that could let it's voice, it's arms, it's resources to the protection of the black race, it should have been Wakanda.

Both the grasshopper and the cricket are poets of the earth.They both sing when everything else is silent.They each represent a season.

Explanation:

"On the Grasshopper and Cricket" is a poem by English author John Keats, one of the most prominent in the second generation of Romantic poets. Keats died at a very young age - he was only 25 when tuberculosis took his life.

The poem praises the beauty of nature by focusing on two specific insects: the grasshopper and the cricket. The speaker is fascinated by the way they both sing when nature goes silent. The grasshopper is a symbol of summer, while the cricket is a symbol of winter. They are the ones who keep "the poetry of earth" alive when it is either too hot or too cold for any other animals to move or make any noise.

Esperanza's mother's regret about her decision to quit school is mentioned in the chapter "Smart Cookie".
