Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Early in November 1772 — when he had a wife, a month-old child, and an unfinished house — Thomas Jefferson acquired a family pet. For five shillings he bought a mockingbird from one of the slaves of his father-in-law, John Wayles. It was the first in a procession of singing birds that would always be part of Jefferson's household.

Which detail from the beginning of part 1 of "For the Win" most supports the prediction that Dean will not properly care for his dogs during the race? From track and field to archery, Dean was always the winner, but that wasn't what bothered Jake. "Now Dean shows up to ruin everything," he thought as he checked his gear one last time. "Dean knows nothing about dogs. He simply spent a whole bunch of money to buy a top team and a fancy sled." The blog posts of the last week had only made matters worse. Jake and Dean were the two youngest mushers in this year's race . . .

Answers

Answer:

"Dean knows nothing about dogs. He simply spent a whole bunch of money to buy a top team and a fancy sled."

Explanation:

According to the excerpt, Jake grumbles about Dean being the winner in pretty much anything he competes in.

However, he was not bothered about that now, but the fact that Dean does not know anything about dogs, he only spends a lot of money getting dogs and a fancy sled.

Therefore, the detail from the excerpt that supports the prediction that Dean will not properly care for his dogs during the race is the detail where Jake alleges that Dean knows nothing about dogs and insinuates that he would do anything to win because he's spent a lot of money on the dogs.

Explanation:

Which event from "Seventh Grade" is part of the story's rising action? Victor waits in line to receive his computer card. Victor lingers in his homeroom so he can be near Teresa. Victor agrees to help Teresa learn the French language. Victor goes to the library and checks out French textbook

Answers

Answer:

Victor lingers in his homeroom so he can be near Teresa.

Explanation:

The rising action of a story is one part of the plot where the characters act or say in such a way that it builds up and creates suspense. It occurs before the climax of the story but acts or helps in building the suspense to the climax.

In Gary Soto's short story "Seventh Grade", the character Victor wants to impress Teresa, a girl he likes. So, he'd do everything in such a way that he's near her or that she will notice him. One scene which is a part of the rising action is when he lingers near his homeroom just to be near her.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

Answer:

Your answer is "Victor lingers in his homeroom so he can be near Teresa". :)

Logos

Explanation:

Logos is the most effective appeal because using human rights and the constitution for support gives off a higher stature from women. Logos is an appeal that shows no emotion while ethos and pathos do and if women show too much emotion, they would be given the benefit of the doubt, which is not what Anthony is striving for.

What is an excerpt?

An excerpt is indeed a quotation from that other resource that the author introduces with fresh language in a sentence. This phrase is taken from Thomas Jefferson's 1801 inaugural speech: As he warned his audience, "I may often go wrong by defect of judgement," Jefferson admitted the fallibility of human nature. "I shall frequently err through lack of judgement" is the excerpt.

This is a brief passage from a lengthy work, hence being an excerpt first from Declaration of Independence: "When it comes to necessary for one nation to cut the political ties that have bound them to another, and also to assume among powers of the world," says the philosopher Aristotle. The gold gifts is a symbol in this excerpt.

Therefore, the correct option is option A.

Answers

Answer:

Independent clauses linked without a conjunction - Hang gliding is a popular pastime; it takes skill and a bit of daring.

An introductory participial phrase - Walking without a cane, the old man tried to escape unnoticed.

A mark indicating that a list will follow - These colors were chosen for the school: purple, green, and white.

A comma linking two independent clauses - Christ was equal with God, but He willingly became a servant.

A sentence demonstrating direct address - You seem to have found, my good friend, a real peace in life.

Explanation:

When a sentence consists of multiple independent clauses, they need to be connected by a conjunction preceded by a comma or a semicolon (like in the sentence: Hang gliding is a popular pastime; it takes skill and a bit of daring.)

Introductory participial phrases are phrases that contain participles and are located at the beginning of the sentence. Participles are forms of verbs used as adjectives. They end in -ed, -ing or -en.

The mark that indicates that a list will follow is the colon.

Direct address involves the use of a person's name or title to address that person directly.

How does this sentence help develop the idea that rescue dogs can become important family members?


It shows that having a dog is an important part of childhood.

It shows that even though Parker's family gave Toby a home, Toby now protects Parker's life.

It explains how rescue dogs like Toby are just as adorable and friendly as dogs from a pet shop.
