Answer and Explanation:
How are the Games used to maintain control over the districts?
The Hunger Games are a display of power. The Capitol established the Games after the districts attempted a rebellion. Now, people from each district are forced to compete and fight to death. By doing this, the Capitol makes it clear that it has the power to kill, if it wishes. So much so that people would rather risk having their own kids' names drawn to the deadly Games than fighting for freedom. It is as if they think it is better to lose one or two with a certain frequency than battling and losing thousands of lives at once, not seeing that such a sacrificial ritual will never lead to change.
Conversely, how are the Games used to keep the Capitol happy and content?
The Games keep the people in the Capitol entertained. While people in the districts barely survive each day, in the Capitol they have too much of everything. Not having to starve, hunt, work, fight to live, they become easily bored. This cruel, barbaric display of violence is, therefore, a lot of fun for them.

Which revision to the last sentence best concludes this story and reflects on the significance of the experience?
As Abby ripped the wrapping paper off her birthday present, I remembered all the hard work that had gone into making it. For a week, I had written, edited, and rewritten a story about Amazing Abby and her big sister Super Sophia. Then I spent days drawing and coloring illustrations to match the story. Once it was finished, 1 designed a cover and hand-stitched the pages together. It was a lot of work, but the look on Abby's face when she opened her gift made it all worth it. Abby might one day forget about that handmade book, but I will never forget how I felt when I saw the joy my gift brought to her. All in all, it was a memorable birthday.

Find the error with subject-verb agreement. Select the incorrect verb and type it correctly. On the basketball court nothing faze Martina She has a singular focus driving up the score for her team
Answer:
The error with subject-verb agreement is highlighted below:
On the basketball court, nothing fazes Martina. She has a singular focus: driving up the score for her team.
Explanation:
Subject-verb agreement refers to the verb adjusting itself to the subject. If the subject is plural, the verb is also plural. If the subject is singular, the verb must also be singular. Take a look at the examples below:
- Leslie goes jogging every morning. → Leslie - singular subject; goes - singular verb.
- They go swimming every Saturday. → They - plural subject; go - plural verb.
In the sentence we are analyzing here, there is an error with the subject-verb agreement. The subject is "nothing", which is singular, but the verb is "faze", which is plural. To correct this error, we must add -s to "faze", since verbs referring to the third person singular in the present tense need -s, -es, or -ies.
The corrected sentence is:
On the basketball court, nothing fazes Martina.

What evidence is there that both the "Point" and "Counterpoint" writers believe that social media is a permanent part of American society?
Hello. You did not inform the article to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
As shown in the question above, the authors agree that social media are permanent elements in American society, that is, it is not possible to exclude them from society. However, if there is a "point" and a "counterpoint" it means that the authors disagree whether this permanence of social media is beneficial or not for society. Thus, the authors must formulate arguments that address their opinions, however they must present evidence that justifies the arguments formed. The evidences are statements that prove that the argument is true and correct. In this case, to answer your question you must find in the article which are the statements that prove that social networks are beneficial and the statements that prove that they are harmful, in the arguments of each author.

(20,000 Leagues Under The Sea)
Answer:Ned's plan once the Nautilus had entered the Mediterranean was to use the life boat to escape. His plan was that they would escape when the Captain was in bed. Ned was to be at the central companionway with Conseil while he told Aronnax to wait in the library until he receives a signal from Ned
Explanation:
Ned's plan once the Nautilus had entered the Mediterranean was to use the life boat to escape.His plan was that they would escape when the Captain was in bed. Ned was to be at the central companionway with Conseil while he told Aronnax to wait in the library until he receives a signal from Ned. Ned had taken a monkey wrench with which he was going to unscrew the nuts bolting the life boat, which he knew how to operate, to the Nautilus. The action was meant to propel them to reach the surface of the water fast without alerting anyoneExplanation:In Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea Ned explained how they were to escape from the submarine in the lines:"In that case, I should seek to make myself master of the pinnace. I know how it is worked. We must get inside, and the bolts once drawn, we shall come to the surface of the water, without even the pilot, who is in the bows, perceiving our flight."However his plan to escape the Nautilus while in the Mediterranean was made impossible, as it went entirely too fast the entire time it was there.
