"A twenty-two," [Rainsford] remarked. "That's odd. It must have been a fairly large animal too. The hunter had his nerve with him to tackle it with a light gun. It's clear that the brute put up a fight. I suppose the first three shots I heard was when the hunter flushed his quarry and wounded it. The last shot was when he trailed it here and finished it." He examined the ground closely and found what he had hoped to find – the print of hunting boots. They pointed along the cliff in the direction he had been going. Eagerly he hurried along, now slipping on a rotten log or a loose stone, but making headway; night was beginning to settle down on the island. —"The Most Dangerous Game," Richard Connell

(A) He knows a lot about hunting
(B) He feels sympathy for the animal

This question is incomplete. I've found the rest of the question online. Since the excerpt has been posted, I will omit it.
1. What can be concluded about Rainsford from his dialogue?

B. He feels sympathy for the animal
C. He wishes he had been with the hunter

A. "that's odd"
B ."had his nerve"
C. "last shot"
3. What can be concluded about Rainsford from the narration?

B. He is afraid of the hunter
C. He is worries that the hunter will send him away
4. What word does the narrator use that helps the reader draw this conclusion?
A. "examined"
B. "found"
C. "eagerly"
Answer:
1. A. He knows a lot about hunting
2. B ."had his nerve"
3. A. He thinks he will be safe with the hunter
4. C. "eagerly"
Explanation:
The excerpt we are studying here was taken from Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game". Rainsford, the main character, is a famous experienced hunter who accidentally falls off a yatch, ending up on General Zaroff's island.
Even if we did not know Rainsford is a hunter, we would be able to tell he knows a lot about hunting after reading the passage. From the signs and tracks he sees and the sounds he hears, he knows what kind of weapon was used, how large the animal was, if there was a struggle on the animal's part and so on. That is why number 1 should be answered with A. He knows a lot about hunting.
Also, when Rainsford says "[t]he hunter had his nerve with him," he is complimenting the unknown hunter's courage to follow the animal. That is why number 2 should be answered with B ."had his nerve".
Numbers 3 and 4 are based on the same line: "Eagerly he hurried along." Why is Rainsford eager to meet the hunter? Because he will feel safer. So far, he does not know that Zaroff is hunting other men; Rainsford still thinks there are large animals on the loose on the island. He would rather find the hunter than the animals. So, numbers 3 and 4 should be answered with A. He thinks he will be safe with the hunter and C. "eagerly", respectively.
Answer:
1. A. He knows a lot about hunting
2. B ."had his nerve"
3. A. He thinks he will be safe with the hunter
4. C. "eagerly"

These days, too many teachers try to seem "cool" by focusing lessons on pop music, sports, and other common student interests. But this causes students to miss out on learning about classic literature and other topics they might enjoy. According to English professor Dominique Parks, a majority of great American authors first became interested in writing when they read famous literature in school. Which statement best evaluates the use of evidence in this passage? A. The evidence is credible because it cites an expert who has studied the topic B. The evidence is not credible because it lacks a specific statistic. C. The evidence is relevant because it supports the point that schools have lost their values. D. The evidence is not relevant because it is about classic literature, not pop music.
Answer:
C.The evidence is relevant because it supports the point that schools have lost their values.

Explanation:
All Nashville is a-chill! And everywhere, As wind-swept sands upon the deserts blow, There is, each moment, sifted through the air A powered blast of January snow. (5) O thoughtless dandelion! to be misled By a few warm days to leave thy natural bed Was folly growth and blooming over soon. And yet, thou blasted, yellow-coated gem! Full many hearts have but a common boon (10) With thee, now freezing on thy slender stem. When once the heart-blooms by love's fervid breath Is left, and chilling snow is sifted in, It still may beat, but there is blast and death To all that blooming life that might have been. (1916) The function of the dandelion in the poem is to: act as a symbol for humankind's relationship to nature indicate the possibility of new and fresh beginnings provide an opportunity to reflect on the feelings of lost love suggest a juxtaposition to the typical human experience symbolize the narrator's enduring admiration for nature
Answer:
The function of the dandelion in the poem is to:
C. provide an opportunity to reflect on the feelings of lost love.
Explanation:
The poem we are analyzing here is "A January Dandelion" by author George Marion McClellan.
The dandelion mentioned in the poem is a symbol of lost love. According to the speaker, this dandelion was fooled by the weather and ended up blooming too soon. In the end, it was blasted by harsh winds and froze "on [its] slender stem." The flower represents what happens to us when we hastily fall in love only to lose it. "[T]here is death and blast," even if we can love again. The heart may still beat, but nothing will change the pain of having been broken:
When once the heart-blooms by love's fervid breath Is left, and chilling snow is sifted in, It still may beat, but there is blast and death

“The Truth to It All” chapter 1
I 11 years old when it happened, I didn't know what to do, “I didn't get it” I said, “we always lived such a happy life”. It was raining outside, it was cold, it was scary to think that we could get through this storm. A storm of so many things. I was in foster care; they took me from school, I had to change from 2 schools already and soon I will be in a different one again. But it has been a year now and I'm 12 years old, my mom is an hour away from me, I call her tonight. I always get to call her on Mondays and Thursdays from 6:30 to 7:30. I missed her so much, there were so many happy memories that make me smile, some will make me cry. My sister I have only seen once, she was with me at first but then they separated us, god knows why, we had gone to the mall and bought sister bracelets, it was fun! I remembered how much we joked, the bracelets were for your ankle, but they were for kids and when we tried to put them on, they couldn’t fit, we laughed so hard, it felt good, but it hurt, it hurt to think of why they would do that, we were always together, but now there is no one to talk too. I stay quiet, mostly to myself, I don’t speak unless I am called for, I like to think of myself as curious and a little talkative. She's mad, I'm mad, I'm in foster care and she yells at me for not taking her dog outside. Sometimes I feel that she cares about the dog more than me, I'm fine though, I would say I care about the dog more than my foster parent. Her name is Blake, she's adorable too, She's shy though. I'm shy too, I want to leave, to run away, to get out of my head, everything hurts, I don’t have my mom anymore, or my dad, sister, cousins, any family I have are gone. They came to school, at the end of the day, they took me to the police station and said that they are going to put me in a group home, I loved it there, I never got to say goodbye, or I love you to my mom, they were so nice to me, I had 2 best friends and now they're gone, and I feel like they took a piece of me with them. I woke up in the morning for school, I wanted to. Stay in my dream forever, I wanted to disappear away in a land where no one can tell me anything and I will have my friends and family there with me forever, but I knew that wouldn’t happen, and to be honest I was kind of happy I woke up, to breath, to feel the air, to think about what went wrong on that day at school. If only I could remember, remembering is something that's not easy for me, I'm bad at it, I get so distracted with everything, sometimes I wish it would all stop and I could have the gift to be happy for just one day, I try to remember the last time I was so happy, I barely smile now unless it’s a good joke, but every time I laugh it turns into a weak cry. I'm on the couch, there is a storm right now and it is raining, not hard though. Last night I was scared because it was raining hard and I wished I could disappear in my dream land, I had rice crispy cereal this morning, it was good, then I brushed my teeth. My mom hadn't answered the call on Monday, I don’t know why, I so badly wanted to talk to her, its Wednesday now and I'm waiting for my morning flight period at school, we don’t do much at morning flight except listen to the teacher say “do missing work” blah blah blah, I don’t have missing work, but I do have an F in science. I don’t even know why, I got called thoughtless and lazy today by my foster parent, I hate her, she’s so mean and she always blames things on me! I want to run away, right now, I want to leave and feel the air and rain on my skin, I want to be free.

If both stories take place on a spaceship what element can you compare by describing each spaceship
Answer:
Setting
Explanation:
If both stories take place on a spaceship the element can you compare each spaceship as a Setting. Thus the correct option is D.
What is the Setting?The setting of any story determines the environment and location where the events took place in the story. It helps to determine the real-life incident and fictional background in the story.
The story's subject draws attention to the plot that serves as its foundation. The story's narrative and the forthcoming events are both influenced by these themes.
The events that make up a story's plot all connect to or have an impact on one another and form a larger narrative. It establishes the sequence of events that occur in the story.
So when any comparison is made setting is evaluated when stories take place on a spaceship to determine the theme.
Therefore, option D is appropriate.

can somebody write me a letter about helping people and feed homeless people and why to provide shelter for people
We should feed and shelter the homeless because not everyone is as fortunate as you. People go hungry everyday and most of us throw away food we don't eat. People sleep under bridges every night while you're sleeping in your bed, inside your home. Its inhumane to just sit there and watch someone go hungry, or sleep under a bridge. The least you could do is drive them to a homeless shelter, and if there isn't one nearby, maybe you have a shed or an extra room they could sleep in. Or you could buy them some food and a warm blanket to sleep with. Whatever you do, don't just ignore the homeless. They step out and hold their signs because they are asking you to help, isn't that enough for you?
Help and feed the homeless! <3
Answer:
helping people is good.Especially the homeless people.Sometimes helping people feels good like how L'm helping you now!Why should I provide shelter for the people in need?I should do it because they might need it!

write an informal paragraph about the advantages or disadvantages of using email. You're writing for a travel club newsletter

Advantage: Expeditious Client Communication
When you require to get a paramount message to a client or business associate who is located thousands of miles away, one of the most expeditious ways to do it is by email. The advantage email has over the telephone in communication haste is that you can send annexations with an electronically mail that contain paramount documents or even a presentation to demystify your message. Phone calls take longer in general anyway, because you have to get through to the right person and catch them when they can verbalize. An electronic mail, on the other hand, can be sent expeditiously and be waiting for them when they're yare to review it.
Advantage: Availability and Portability

Disadvantage: Accessible to Others
When someone hands you a business letter, you are the only person that receives that letter. Never consider your electronic mails to be private. Since email is sent over networks, it's possible that others could gain access to them or receive them by mistake. An electronic mail can be intercepted by a hacker or peregrinate to an erroneous electronic mail address and wind up in someone else's inbox.

Your sensitive information and messages are very accessible to hackers and even unsuspecting recipients when you utilize email.
