Read the excerpt from The Call of the Wild.

They stopped by a running stream to drink, and, stopping, Buck remembered John Thornton. He sat down. The wolf started on toward the place from where the call surely came, then returned to him, sniffing noses and making actions as though to encourage him. But Buck turned about and started slowly on the back track. For the better part of an hour the wild brother ran by his side, whining softly. Then he sat down, pointed his nose upward, and howled. It was a mournful howl, and as Buck held steadily on his way he heard it grow faint and fainter until it was lost in the distance.

John Thornton was eating dinner when Buck dashed into camp and sprang upon him in a frenzy of affection, overturning him, scrambling upon him, licking his face, biting his hand – "playing the general tom-fool," as John Thornton characterized it, the while he shook Buck back and forth and cursed him lovingly.

Which theme is supported by Buck's unwillingness to continue the journey with the wolf?

Read the following excerpt from John Muir's article "The Wild Parks and Forest Reservations of the West." Then answer the question that follows.
Only thirty years ago, the great Central Valley of California, five hundred miles long and fifty miles wide, was one bed of golden and purple flowers. Now it is ploughed and pastured out of existence, gone forever--scarce a memory of it left in fence corners and along the bluffs of the streams. The gardens of the Sierra, also, and the noble forests in both the reserved and unreserved portions are sadly hacked and trampled, notwithstanding, the ruggedness of the topography--all excepting those of the parks guarded by a few soldiers. In the noblest forests of the world, the ground, once divinely beautiful, is desolate and repulsive, like a face ravaged by disease. This is true also of many other Pacific Coast and Rocky Mountain valleys and forests. The same fate, sooner or later, is awaiting them all, unless awakening public opinion comes forward to stop it.
How does Muir try to persuade his audience in this excerpt?
He encourages readers to get as angry as he is about the loss of natural areas.
He appeals to readers' sense of guilt about building cities within wilderness areas.
He encourages readers to stop trampling the land so that it remains beautiful.
He appeals to readers' feelings of nostalgia for natural beauty that might be lost.

Answers

Answer:

the last one

Explanation:

What is John Muir?

Both the National Park System and the founding of the Sierra Club are attributed to Muir. He inspired future generations of wilderness champions by educating Americans about the importance of the nation's wilderness.

Through his writings, Muir expressed his love of the natural world and motivated readers to preserve our nation's wilderness areas, inspiring the creation of the National Park Service and the current conservation movement.

Over 300 magazine pieces and 12 books that he authored and published. His passion for exploration, the outdoors, the wild, and the interconnectedness of everything is evident in his books and essays. He was finishing up a book about his adventures across Alaska when he passed away.

Thus, option D is correct.

Give me a name and quote about video games being good or bad
It can be by you.If you want

Answers

Answer:

Lots of kids love video games. In fact, they like them so much that they might hear something like this from mom or dad: "Enough! Find something else to do!"

It can be good advice, even if you were about to get to the next level. Why? Too much of anything is just too much. It's true that some studies have shown certain video games can improve hand–eye coordination, problem-solving skills, and the mind's ability to process information. But too much video game playing may cause problems.It's hard to get enough active play and exercise if you're always inside playing video games. And without enough exercise, kids can become overweight.Overdoing video games also could affect other important stuff, like friendships and how well a kid does in school. And kids who play violent video games might act more aggressively.But here's the good news: Playing video games some of the time can be OK. Choose quality games, and limit screen time which includes TV, computer, smartphone, tablet, and video game time combined to a reasonable amount.A good game will be the right one for how old you are. Games are rated like movies and your mom or dad can help figure out which ones you should use. If you can choose one that gets you up and moving, that's even better.You might challenge your mom, dad or even your grandma to swing the bat in a game of baseball or try out some fancy moves in one of the dancing games.

Video games can help kids focus on one thing at a time and helps kid practice concentration and can help people stop thinking about their problems for a bit of time which is a plus side but they can also distract you from a lot of things that you should also be doing

One day while they were cruising through the galaxy they realized they were out of food. So they started scouring around the ship for anything they could find, until Fin accidentally hit space warp. While they got blasted into a new constellation, they had to hold on for dear life since they were quite far from their seats. But finally they arrived at a homey looking shop hovering over the unfamiliar planets. So like any other food starved space cadet they suited up and headed off. While entering the shop they were greeted by forms of life they couldn't of imagined in their whole life. As well as food that looked like it was straight out of a science fiction novel. Fin and Harlow looked around until they decided to pick the gosh garbles. A seemingly candy type substance. But before they left, Fin and Harlow took a selfie with the cashier who was green and slimey with one eye. The creature threw up a muddy peace sign at the tiny machine. Then Fin and Harlow thanked him, even though he didn't understand. Then we're on their way home from a year long mission finalized by success. (sorry this is longer than a paragraph)

I woke up yesterday with the biggest headache ever. Everything was blurry! My head felt like it could pound out of my head. So, of course I decided to call up a friend to bring me some medicine. I called my best friend, Ally! Ally has been with me for everything, I knew I could trust her. She came over as soon as she could and gave me all I needed. After a couple hours... my head still hurt. Ally never left so I called out to her “My head still hurts, do you have anything else??”. This was the moment that changed everything! She scooped me up and put me in her car. She practically drove 100 miles an hour to this place that felt halfway across the states. When we got there, something smelled... BAD. But, I seriously thought my head was gonna fall off, so, I complied. She took me inside this place- she hadn’t said one word! The place was huge, and had a red button at the end of a hallway. She sprinted to it and hit it. Then... BOOM. We just BLASTED off into space! It was.. amazing. The world looked so tiny in a matter of seconds. My headache felt cured! Untill... it wasn’t. In 2.5 minutes we landed back onto what I thought was Earth. But, when we stepped out into the world. It was... different. Ally finally looked to me and said “Come on, we’re almost here!” and we crossed a couple roads, and after a few blocks. We made it to the biggest store I’ve ever seen! But- everyone was BLUE, AND GREEN, AND GREY!!! It was horrendously scary. Yet, I saw this bright yellow stand in the corner. Ally rushed over to it and started just grabbing all the packages. She didn’t even think to pay before she started opening them! They looked like, tiny pellets! But- she SHOVED one in my mouth. It was disgusting. Yet, it worked within MINUTES! My headache has been cured.

According to The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone, what detail helped scholars determine that the second Egyptian inscription was a simpler form of Egyptian writing that had been created by “the people”?

The scholars had seen examples of it before written on rolls of papyrus, a writing material used by the Egyptians.
Since the scholars had already studied Egyptian languages, they recognized both the hieroglyphs and the demotic version.
The Greek inscription, which had already been deciphered, explained how to translate each of the Egyptian passages.
