Answer:
These days college education is very common. Many use their education to find a well-paying job. Although many go, many others can't afford the tuition. People should not be denied the opportunity of college just because they don't have to money. We should make college education free so everyone can experience it.
Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Travels of Marco Polo.
They have plenty of ambergris, because whales abound in these seas, and also cachalots. And since they catch great numbers of both, they are never short of ambergris; for you know it is the whale that produces ambergris. They have leopards and lynxes and lions also in great numbers. Other beasts, such as harts, stags, and roebuck and such-like game animals, are also abundant, besides game-birds of many kinds. There are also many ostriches of huge size. The great diversity of birds, quite different from ours, is truly marvelous.
Which quotation from the excerpt best reflects the author’s subjective perspective about the fauna of Madagascar?
“They have plenty of ambergris, because whales abound in these seas, and also cachalots.”
“They have leopards and lynxes and lions also in great numbers.”
“Other beasts, such as harts, stags, and roebuck and such-like game animals, are also abundant, besides game-birds of many kinds.”
“The great diversity of birds, quite different from ours, is truly marvelous.
Answer:
The great diversity of birds, quite different from ours, is truly marvelous.
Explanation:
Objective statements are statements based only on facts. Subjective statements are the opposite; they are influenced by a person's feelings, opinions, beliefs, and assumptions.
All of the narrator's statements from the given passage are objective, except for the last one: The great diversity of birds, quite different from ours, is truly marvelous. Here, he expresses what he thinks about the fauna of Madagascar - he thinks that it's marvelous. That is not a fact, but an opinion. Someone else could disagree and say that they are not impressed. Opinions have nothing to do with the objective reality, which is why they can be completely different while referring to the same subject.
Answer:
“The great diversity of birds, quite different from ours, is truly marvelous.”

What inference can be made about Mr. Dwerrihouse based on how he is introduced and his
character is developed in the text? Support your answer with details from the text.
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
What inference can be made about Mr. Dwerrihouse based on how he is introduced and his character is developed in the text? Support your answer with details from the text.
I now recognized my companion. I recognized him from the moment when he removed his hat and uncovered the lofty, furrowed, and somewhat narrow brow beneath. I had met him, as I distinctly remembered, some three years before, at the very house for which, in all probability, he was now bound, like myself. His name was Dwerrihouse, he was a lawyer by profession, and, if I was not greatly mistaken, was first cousin to the wife of my host. I knew also that he was a man eminently well−to−do", both as regarded his professional and private means. The Jelfs entertained him with that sort of observant courtesy which falls to the lot of the rich relation, the children made much of him, and the old butler, albeit somewhat surly "to the general", treated him with deference. I thought, observing him by the vague mixture of lamplight and twilight, that Mrs. Jelf's cousin looked all the worse for the three years' wear and tear which had gone over his head since our last meeting. He was very pale, and had a restless light in his eye that I did not remember to have observed before. The anxious lines, too, about his mouth were deepened, and there was a cavernous, hollow look about his cheeks and temples which seemed to speak of sickness or sorrow. He had glanced at me as he came in, but without any gleam of recognition in his face. Now he glanced again, as I fancied, somewhat doubtfully. When he did so for the third or fourth time I ventured to address him.
Answer and Explanation:
Based on the text above, we can infer that Mr. Dwerrihouse is not in the prime of his health and is old, tired and nervous, anxious. This is noticeable through the statement about the appearance of Mr. Dwerrihouse that the narrator presents, where we can conclude that this is not the appearance of a healthy person and that he is completely calm.
The way Mr. Dwerrihouse looks at the narrator, also allows us to approach that he will not have a friendly character, but distant, cold and often withdrawn.
Read this text from Part II of "R.M.S. Titanic": Aft, the frightened immigrants mill and jostle and rush for a boat. An officer's fist flies out; three shots are fired in the air, and the panic is quelled. . . . Four Chinese sneak unseen into a boat and hide in the bottom. Which kind of conflict is exemplified here?
Answer:
Character vs. Character.
Explanation:
The Character vs. Conflict Character is one that shows a dispute, a problem or a competition created between the characters in a story. As we can see in the text above, there is a dispute between the characters for lifeboats, which can save them from the wreck of the Titanic. This disposition makes the characters fight among themselves, that is, there is a conflict between them, a fight, a disagreement.
DIRECTIONS: Read the passage. Then, answer the questions that follow.
Centerville proudly inaugurated its first water pumping station in 1923. At the time, the water plant was state of the art. As Centerville grew, so did its water infrastructure, including a new pumping station, a network of water mains and feeder lines, and even a five-foot-diameter tunnel from McMahon Reservoir. The Centerville Water District has served the community well.
However, over the last thirty years, much of the town’s water infrastructure has grown increasingly unreliable. Many pipes were laid decades ago, and with time, any water pipe weakens and corrodes. Last year, there were sixteen serious leaks in water mains. More troubling, many neighborhood pipes laid in the 1950s and 1960s contain lead, a toxic substance that is especially dangerous to children. It’s long past time to increase the water district’s budget so that it can modernize Centerville’s aging water infrastructure.
1. What is the writer’s claim?
2. Write one piece of evidence that strongly supports the claim.
Answer:
The writer claims that the city of Centerville needs a new infrastructure for its water system.
This claim is supported by the statement that "[the] pipes laid in the 1950s and 1960s contain lead, a toxic substance that is especially dangerous to children."
Explanation:
In the given passage, the author presents an argument where he points out the faulty water plant has become and that it is time for a new, upgraded, and improved infrastructure. With the passage of time, things become old and outdated, thus the need for new things.
The main claim of the writer seems to be that the water system should be changed and replaced by a much more modern structure.
One piece of evidence to support this claim is that "[the] pipes laid in the 1950s and 1960s contain lead, a toxic substance that is especially dangerous to children", thus the need to "modernize Centerville's aging water infrastructure."

Write two contrasting pieces (300-400 words each), the first about a new student on the first day at university, and the second about the same student a year later. In your writing, create a sense of the student's outlook and mood
Answer:
Hello, my name is Anna. Today is my first day of school at my university and I am very excited because I have been waiting for this moment for a long time. Everything is new and mind-blowing, the place is so beautiful and my room is perfect for me. Today I met my roommate and I already like her! We understood eachother immediately so we decided we are going to a party tonight together and I can already tell that I will have a great time. Also, I had one class today, it was just an introductory class, but I cannot wait to learn new things and to make friends. In the class, we had to introduce ourselves and then explain why we wanted to be there. I feel like this will be such an amazing year, I am even waiting to have exams, I do not mind studying, I just want to incorporate all the knowledge I can and have fun because this is a one-time experience and opportunity. I am very happy I am here although I am far from my family, I am going to miss them so much but I will visit them every time I have the chance.
The school is very big. I can see myself studying in the grass while having a coffee with some friends. I have already been to the library, to the cafeteria, to some classrooms, and of course, to my room. I have been decorating my room for two hours now. I brought a lot of photos to put on my room's walls and remember all the people that are at home. I also put my clothes in the wardrobe and I ordered them by color. I do not know if that is going to last but it was important for me to do it anyway.
Hello, my name is Anna. Today I start my second year at this school. I am happy because I get to see my school's friends but I am sad because I had to leave home. Last year was so difficult for me, I wanted to go back home every day and things were not as I planned. I think missing home so much affected me and therefore I failed some exams. It was a very difficult year. I just hope this one is better because I already know how being away from home is. I hope I can pass all my exams and hang out with my friends more, which has been the best thing that happened to me here. My roommate and I became best friends; I cannot wait to see her!
I kind of missed the school, though. All the places are very nice. However, I feel like I want to get outside more, I used to study in the library all the time. This year I want to get outside and study while having a coffee underneath a tree, it would be great. When I first got here I thought I would be doing it so often but I did not. I also want to go to parties more often. I used to go last year, but I always went back to my room pretty early. I always felt I was going to be so tired the next day. I suppose this year I have to organize myself better. When I have exams or projects to finish, I have to finish them as soon as possible, so I can have a little fun in the weekends and I am not finishing everything at the last moment.
I brought some new photos to put on my wall today! That is something that has not changed and I am very happy about it.
Explanation:
To complete this exercise, you have to write two contrasting pieces about a student on her first and second year at university. I wrote about Anna, a girl that on her first day is so excited and everything is new for her, but on her second year she is more realistic because she had a tough year.
HURRY give me 6 good reasons
why Should Animals Not be Used for Scientific or Commercial Testing?
Answer:
The first reason is that scientific testing is VERY HARMFUL to the animals! The reason they are used for testing in the first place is because the products are too dangeroeus to test on humans.
Next, it is considered animal abuse. Why would you want to hurt animals?
thirdly, It is mistreating animals. How would you like it if somebody locked you up inside of a cage and put harmful products on you?
It is also causes controveries. It can get companies in trouble with organizations like PETA.
It can also make the company who was trying to test decrease sales from protesters who are standing up for animal rights.
The last reason is that it can endanger animals. If too much products are being tested on them, it could likely harm their population

Write an essay stating your opinion on whether a person is born with courage or a person
learns courage through experiences.
Need help ASAP
Answer:
I think that a person is not born with courage but rather learns courage through experiences.
Explanation:
Courage is the ability and emotional strength to do certain things and overcome them. But is this trait inherited and passed through generations or is it learned through experience?
To me, courage is not something that a person is born with. There is no such thing as a courageous person born with that character trait. Rather, it is a quality that a person imbibes, nurture, and develop through the life experiences that he encounters. A person may be born with a weak personality and may even be an introvert, but life's hurdles and the numerous knockdowns that one faces will help him endure. This will lead to a more courageous approach to life and not be knocked down every time things get tough. It will help build the person and become more accustomed to whatever life may bring, and help him get through them with new lessons learned every step of the way.
Supposing we say that a person is born with courage, even in the deepest of minds, there is no justification for this statement. For no one is ever born with courage, and there is no such thing as a courageous baby tackling life's disappointments. But as a person grows up, the difficult times and life's disappointments will help him learn about the hardships of life and how to tackle them. This will then help him get more courage and be ready for what will come next.
