Revenge is not the way to get true justice. There are better ways that justice can be achieved.
One's immoral choices will later haunt that person; so I strongly agree.
Not all families always have each other's best interest in mind, so I will disagree.
I strongly agree that moral courage can be difficult to accomplish that physical courage. Moral courage will have to defy disappointment, insult, etc.

Why are the Putnams so eager to assume that the children are ill because they are bewitched?
Answer:
The number of children who have diedThe need to blame something for their deathsExplanation:
In The Crucible, the Putnams have lost seven children with an eight, Ruth, very sick. They think this to be very unusual because it is just too many children to have died from the same illness.
Mr. Putnam rules genetics out as a factor by referring to the large family he came from where he had ten brothers which meant to him that his genes were strong enough for his children to stay alive.
Another reason was the need to blame the deaths of the kids on something especially for Mrs. Putnam who kept seeing her children die. She needed to blame something to feel better and witchcraft was an easy factor.

What's the difference between vague and precise verbs?
Precise verbs are easier to say out loud.
Precise verbs are longer words.
Precise verbs are easier to spell.
Precise verbs are easier to imagine.
The correct answer is Precise verbs are easier to imagine
Explanation:
Precise verbs differ from vague verbs because these refer to very specific actions or states. For example, the verbs "mutter" or "crawl" are precise verbs because these refer to very specific actions. On the other hand, the verb "move" is vague because this does not explain how the movement occurs. Moreover, precise verbs allow the reader to imagine precisely the action described, and therefore are easier to imagine and are more suitable to create precise descriptions.
Which line provides evidence that Rainsford’s actions are justified because Zaroff was unlikely to let him go?
A)The general sucked in his breath and smiled. "I congratulate you," he said. "You have won the game."
B)"Get ready, General Zaroff."
C)"Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."
D)He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided.
The answer is C
Answer:
The answer is indeed letter C. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."
Explanation:
Zaroff and Rainsford are characters in Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game." They are both dexterous hunters who have no empathy for their prey. The one difference between them is that Rainsford hunts animals, while Zaroff hunts men.
Rainsford becomes Zaroff's brand new game. By the end of the story, he has managed to escape the forest and enter Zaroff's house unnoticed. Once Zaroff enters his own bedroom, Rainsford appears. Zaroff had promised to let Rainsford go if he managed to remain alive for three days after the hunt started. However, even though he admits Rainsford has won, he does not intend to let him go. This is what he says:
C. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."
Zaroff is confident he will kill Rainsford and feed him to his dogs. Rainsford has no choice but fight and kill Zaroff to guarantee his own survival. That is what he does.
Answer:
C. “Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed.”

write 150 words explaining why it is important to set specific goals in life and strive to reach those goals , PLS HELP !!!
Answer: Why is it important to set goals in life? First of all, it focuses your acquisition of knowledge, helping you organize your time and your resources so that you can make the most of your life. This gives you long-term vision and short-term motivation. Motivation is very important and keeps us going every day. So setting a simple goal and possibly promising yourself something in the end can power your motivation.
So how can you strive to reach these goals? Here are a couple strategies: Use a journal, diary, calendar, or app to track how you are doing. Commit to your goal by saying it out loud and reminding yourself each day. Write a story or draw a picture to envision how your life will change when you reach your goal. It is also important to decide in advance when and where you will perform the tasks that will help you reach what you are striving for. “All who have accomplished great things have had a great aim, have fixed their gaze on a goal which was high, one which sometimes seemed impossible.” says Orison Swett Marden . Set your goal, look to your future, and forget the past. This is how you can reach your goal and get where you need to be.
