Answer:The topic sentence is normally the first sentence in a paragraph. This sentence gives the reader an idea of what is coming up in the paragraph, and it is normally the most general of the paragraph’s sentences. There won’t be a whole lot of detail in this sentence, but it is there to introduce the main idea.The body sentences (or supporting sentences) reinforce the topic sentence by fleshing out the details. If something in the body sentences does not support your paragraph, it needs to go somewhere else in the article probably in a new paragraph. If your topic sentence is the “what” of your paragraph, the body sentences are the “whys.”The concluding sentence is not always necessary, but if you have a longer paragraph, it is something that should be included. The concluding sentence will summarize your topic sentence and reinforce it.

In 3-4 sentences, describe two influences from Dr. Goddard's childhood that motivated him to study rocket science.
Answer and Explanation:
Dr. Goddard was extremely influenced and inspired by the readings of literary works of science fiction, especially those written by H. G. Wells, known as "The War of the World." This type of reading stimulated his imagination and curiosity about what was possible to do with the use of science.
He was also influenced by analyzing the sky and thinking about how wonderful it would be, if a machine was able to allow human beings to analyze the sky up close, being able to see everything that compose it and all the space above it.
Read this excerpt from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics.
The incentive scheme that rules sumo is intricate and extraordinarily powerful. Each wrestler maintains a ranking that affects every slice of life; how much money he makes, how large an entourage he carries, how much he gets to eat, sleep, and otherwise take advantage of his success. The sixty-six highest-ranked wrestlers in Japan, comprising the makuuchi and juryo divisions, make up the sumo elite. A wrestler near the top of this elite pyramid may earn millions and is treated like royalty. Any wrestler in the top forty earns at least $170,000 a year. The seventieth-ranked wrestler in Japan, meanwhile, earns only $15,000 a year. Life isn’t very sweet outside the elite. Low-ranked wrestlers must tend to their superiors, preparing their meals and cleaning their quarters and even soaping up their hardest-to-reach body parts. So ranking is everything.
A wrestler’s ranking is based on his performance in the elite tournaments that are held six times a year. Each wrestler has fifteen bouts per tournament, one per day over fifteen consecutive days. If he finishes the tournament with a winning record (eight victories or better), his ranking will rise. If he has a losing record, his ranking falls. If it falls far enough, he is booted from the elite rank entirely. The eighth victory in any tournament is therefore critical, the difference between promotion and demotion; it is roughly four times as valuable in the rankings as the typical victory.
Based on the excerpt, which of the following statements best summarizes the incentive system that ranks sumo wrestlers?
The incentive system penalizes elite sumo wrestlers.
The incentive system rewards elite sumo wrestlers.
The incentive system treats all sumo wrestlers equally.
The incentive system treats all sumo wrestlers like royalty.
Answer: D: The incentive system treats all sumo wrestlers like royalty

How does the author's choice to end the story with Caline crying about the pleasant-faced boy contribute to the overall structure of the story? It reveals for the reader Caline's true motivation for moving to the city. It makes the reader wonder if Caline's mistress is actually cruel rather than kind. It shows that Caline was quite foolish to leave her home and move to the city. It explains why Caline misses her home and friends in the country so much.
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
Caline is a short story written by Kate Chopin. The story is about Caline, a young girl and her decision to shift to a new place.
The author shows Caline crying at the end of the story. Her crying suggests that her decision to move to the city was not to earn the money but to find pleasant-faced boy. Therefore, her crying reveals her true motivation for moving to the city. Thus option A is correct.
In is our gain also our loss what is most likely the reason that the authors father becomes excited when he sees his daughter eating cereal
Answer:
- It reminds him of an old commercial that he once enjoyed.
Explanation:
In the context of "Is Our Gain Also Our Loss?' the most probable reason that makes the author's father delighted when he observes his daughter having cereal is that 'it recollects his memories of an old cereal advertisement that he really enjoyed watching.' This gives him a nostalgic feel and he's down the memory lane when he was a young boy which makes him overjoyed and elevated at the same time. Similarly, when grandma sees her childhood photographs, she too gets emotional and reminiscent of her old days.
Read or listen to the strangers that came to town but ambrose flack the audiobook is on yt
briefly summarizes the plot
• identifies the main conflict
• describes the protagonist’s perspective of the conflict
• provides a line of dialogue that the protagonist says to support your idea (text support)
• describes the antagonist’s perspective of the conflic
Answer:
In his short story, “The Strangers That Came to Town,” Ambrose Flack is showing that true freedom is about being accepted. It shows that true freedom is about being accepted because of the way that the Duvitch family is placed in a community where they are not accepted at first but then do become accepted. Mr. Duvitch didn’t talk much to anyone because of lack of freedom to be who he was, Mrs. Duvitch didn’t have the freedom to also be who she was because people talked about her and the Duvitch children to were quiet ones who didn’t have freedom in the sense that they couldn’t just go out and play with the other kids. Mr. Duvitch gains freedom through the power of acceptance by those around him. At first Mr. Duvitch has trouble being
At first, people would talk about Mrs. Duvitch and say rude things about her. Mrs. Duvitch could never really feel accepted when people were constantly talking about her and making assumptions about her which is why she too never really had contact with anyone, “But this gave rise to the rumor that she was the victim of an obscure skin disease and that every morning she shook scales out of the bed sheet” (3). When someone gives you reassurance that what you’re doing is okay and become engaged and interested in what you’re saying that allows you to open up and feel accepted which is what happened with Mrs. Duvitch when Andy’s family went over for dinner, “Saying very little, he managed to make us feel a great deal and he constantly sought his wife’s eyes with glances of delight over the wonder of what was happening” (14). Mrs. Duvitch is finally accepted into her community when others see that she has much more to offer them then they had thought. Her special nursing skills became very important to her community, “The community presently had reason to be grateful for Mrs. Duvitch’s presence. It turned out that she had a great gift for nursing, and no fear of death, no fear of disease, contagious or otherwise.” (16). Her acceptance into the community shows that this story is about freedom.
