Answer:
A. Attentive.
Explanation:
The baseball whizzed by my bat and the umpire called "Strike!" The crowd was silent but attentive as the pitcher prepared to throw what could be the final pitch of the championships.
In order to qualify the noun "crowd" and complement the action they were engaged in; an adjective such as "attentive" would be used.
Also, since the pitcher was throwing what could be considered to be the final pitch of the championships, the crowd would be attentive to see what the outcome is i.e whether or not it may lead to the opposition team earning a point.

different would life be?
Answer:
honestly? it would still suck. even though greed and comparison are big things you would have to think about the rules to that? so you cant want anything? see greed is wanting something for yourself and being selfish with that. now can people not greed money? love? ect. and comparison i think that you need that in order to strive to be better. if someone was rich and powerful and no one wanted to be like that or did not compare themselves or be compared there would be no competition no one striving to be the best they can.

Explanation:
A well-known football coach once said, "Winning isn't everything; it's the only thing." Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Write an essay in which you state your position and support it with convincing reasons and examples. (5 paragraphs)
I completely disagree with this statement. This statement is from a person who's life was completely taken over by football. This person is very competitive and I think that people who think this way miss out on the joys of life when all they think about is winning. When people act like winning is the only thing that matters in their life, they don't live a very fun life. It's never fun to lose but for it to be the most important thing is despicable.
My first reason for saying that I disagree is that this state of competitiveness can at times not be healthy. If you get so upset about not winning like it's the most important thing in your life how are you going to react in your normal life? (if you have one at all because your life is based on football.) Life is called Life because your supposed to live not just want to win. It's life, you have to lose sometimes.
My second reason is that when you get so involved with winning you forget to live life. Life is precious and when you grow old and look back at your life if all you did was get mad and play football, is that your perfect life? In order to live, you can't always get what you want and dedicating all your time trying to win is pointless and foolish.
My third reason is that it's unsportsmanlike and unprofessional. If winning is everything to you I have to respect that, but teaching youth that way and throwing a hissy fit if you don't win is a bad example. If you want your life to revolve around football and training I can't stop you. It's wrong though to drag down those who you train to be like you. Let people make their own decisions when it comes to dedicating your life to something.
I disagree as a whole because of how competitive things can be, your life won't be something you can look back on and say you lived life to the fullest, and it's unprofessional. Not only do these reasons make sense, but they have real meaning. For all of these reasons I disagree that winning is the only thing that matters.

How does the reading of the names add tension to the story?
Answer:
Adds and or creates characters
Explanation:
Answer:
Many reasons
Explanation:
When you are reading a story, having names gives the reader an indication of who is thinking what and doing what. It wouldn't be easy to read if it was always, "She went after the girl who was talking to her friend in the hallway. The girl who went after the girl who talked to her friend in the hallway was furious." It would be easier to read if it was; "Ahna went after Emily who was talking to her friend in the hallway. She was furious." It would get confusing after awhile of reading "she" and "him". We wouldn't have names for no reason. Having names is good to have and they are beautiful.

Read the following sentence:
He made a small contribution to the local charity.
Which synonym for the underlined word would most clearly make this
sentence a criticism of the contribution?
A. Decent
B. Humble
C. Modest
D. Minimal
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The synonym for the underlined word that would most clearly make this sentence a criticism of the contribution is "Minimal." Hence, option D is correct.
What are synonyms?Synonyms are words that have the same or similar meanings as another word in a language. For example, "happy" and "joyful" are synonyms because they both convey a positive feeling or emotion.
The word "minimal" implies that the contribution was not enough, or that it was too small to have a significant impact. Using this word in the sentence would suggest that the contribution made by the person was not sufficient and may be considered a criticism.
On the other hand, words like "decent," "humble," or "modest" do not carry the same negative connotation as "minimal."
These words do not necessarily suggest that the contribution was not enough, but rather that it was appropriate or respectful given the circumstances. Therefore, they would not make the sentence a criticism of the contribution.
