write a dialogue between you and your friend expressing agreement or disagreement on photography is an expensive hobby​

Answer:

Person A: Person B, photography is clearly a rather expensive hobby.

Person B: How come, Person A? Photography is a wonderful hobby because it isn't expensive.

Person A: For one, to take good, high-quality photos, you need a proper camera which can range from at least $900 to over one thousand. And if photography is your hobby, you most likely would want to aim for the quality of professional photographers, hence being forced to buy a thousand dollar camera instead of using your phone.

Person B: Exactly, Person A. Albeit, that may be expensive, but it's a hobby like you said. We're not aiming for a professionally taken photo, simply a good quality one. We can get that with the latest phones which are focusing on better camera range, magnification, filters, and quality in general.

Person A: And did you bother to check how much the average phone costs in comparison to a camera. The iPhone 12 is almost $999 alone cutting it extremely close to the price of a simple camera. And if we abide by what you said, then having the latest iPhone -- in this case, the iPhone 12 Pro Max -- ensures that we have the best camera coming in at almost the same price as a professional camera.

Person B: Well, an iPhone also has multiple other features, though. On top of a great quality camera, the phone will provide a person with apps, extra storage, custom wallpaper, etc. It's reasonable to charge more for the phone, but a legitimate camera only gives you a camera lens, maybe filters, a few options, and buttons, and that's it. It's evidently normal to charge the same amount as a camera for a high standard phone, proving that it's not expensive.

Person A: One thousand dollars just to take a couple of pictures is not expensive?

Person B: No, it's not. If you use an iPhone, you get the pictures and an added bonus of extra things, too, hence proving that photography is not an expensive hobby.

Person A: But I believe that it is an expensive hobby. Both of us stated incredibly strong points, don't you think?

Person B: Yes, I suppose so. Whether or not photography is an expensive hobby depends on whom is answering the question.

Civil Disobedience

Part 1

Most people remember Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as reformers who practiced non-violent forms of protest and advocacy. Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a wave of change that was long overdue. But the practice of non-violent protest, or civil disobedience, started long before either Gandhi or King. It began with a quiet, shy poet who is best known for writing a lot about a pond.

Henry David Thoreau lived from 1817 until 1862, mainly in the area of Concord, Massachusetts. The issue that would tear the country apart in the 1860s had already begun dividing the nation. Thoreau was only 14 when Nat Turner led the slave rebellion in Virginia and was later hanged. In his late 20s, Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public, echoing the voices of freedmen like Frederick Douglass and Lewis Hayden.

Thoreau believed that a government that supported slavery was corrupt and immoral. He was also deeply suspicious of government. For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person. It was basically a tax on one's body. After not paying for years, he was at last arrested. He spent only one night in jail, however, as a relative paid the tax for him. He was reportedly furious that any tax was paid on his behalf.

It was this experience that Thoreau wrote about in an essay called "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, he argued that being moral and just came before allegiance to government. He wrote “If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." He also felt that voting was not enough to ensure that the right thing be done. He wrote that "even voting for the right is doing nothing for it… A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance…" He felt that one had a moral responsibility to resist unjust laws.

Read this line from the third paragraph:

For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years.

How does this sentence prepare readers for the final line of the paragraph?

It lets readers know his refusal to pay wasn't just a passing idea.
It lets readers know Thoreau was a thoughtful man.
It tells readers his reasons for refusal were not important.
It tells readers why Thoreau was not arrested for so long.

Read Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address:
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure.
We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Which sentence best describes President Lincoln's central claim in the speech?
A.
The nation's war of independence was the indirect cause of the Civil War.
B.
The fallen soldiers from both the sides deserve respect for their sacrifice.
C.
US citizens must dedicate themselves to the preservation of the nation and freedom for all.
D.
The nation has to go through significant changes to avoid such tragic wars in the future.

Read the following excerpt from an article about etiquette.

To a great extent, the art of writing thank-you notes has surrendered to impersonal forms of technology. However, the effect of a handwritten note simply cannot be duplicated by a tactless e-mail or a hurried phone call. A written thank-you note shows the care and the effort put forth by the writer because a note requires thought as well as time. Writing a note demonstrates that the gift recipient appreciates the giver's thoughtfulness. In contrast, an e-mail or a phone call may be more convenient for the gift recipient, but these methods do not show the same level of consideration and appreciation as a thank-you note. Both methods lack the attention that a gift—no matter its size—properly deserves. Therefore, a handwritten thank-you note is able to convey gratitude that far exceeds hasty technology.

In the article, the writer's diction
A.
communicates the author's frustration and despair in how people choose to correspond with one another.
B.
stresses the extreme importance of saying thank-you for gifts that come in any size or manner to a person.
C.
expresses how effective conveying sincere gratitude and appreciation toward another person can be.
D.
shows the contrast between her perception of handwritten thank-you notes and technological forms of thank-you.

Read the excerpt from Story of My Life by Helen Keller. We walked down the path to the well-house, attracted by the fragrance of the honeysuckle with which it was covered. Some one was drawing water and my teacher placed my hand under the spout. As the cool stream gushed over one hand she spelled into the other the word water, first slowly, then rapidly. I stood still, my whole attention fixed upon the motions of her fingers. Suddenly I felt a misty consciousness as of something forgotten—a thrill of returning thought; and somehow the mystery of language was revealed to me. I knew then that "w-a-t-e-r" meant the wonderful cool something that was flowing over my hand. That living word awakened my soul, gave it light, hope, joy, set it free! There were barriers still, it is true, but barriers that could in time be swept away. Which line from the excerpt is an important detail that would be included in a summary of the excerpt? We walked down the path to the well-house attracted by the fragrance of the honeysuckle my teacher placed my hand under the spout There were barriers still, it is true
