Answers

Answer:

The speaker and those present expect to feel something striking, but that sensation is hindered by the presence of a fly that attracts everyone's attention.

As death is a sad moment, the speaker expects everyone to be impacted, to feel strong emotions and to regret the match, but none of this happens because the presence of a fly gets in the way and attracts everyone's attention.

My chosen issue: Increase spending on those who in need

My name: ALEXANDER

I think that most of the people that we should spend is homeless people because homeless people tend to not have anywhere to live, they don’t have food. I think there should be a shelter for homeless people where supply food and shelter for those in need.

Most people can help by donating canned goods, clothes, and food, shelters to help people that don’t have food on the table. People that are donating to food shelters are a big help when it comes to the homeless in need. Here are a few reasons why.

A teen Kim that was 14 years old her dad was the only person that living with her and then moved out. Kim didn’t have anywhere to live she had to hear uncle Alberto’s house which no hot water, barely had any food, and smelt very bad. 5 months later, she got $180 for her birthday and then spent on alcohol and got arrested and $65 fine. And 5 months later she had nowhere to live. Homeless people like Kim are suffering to live. We can help live and food on the table with this non-profit shelter that helps homeless people.

As we all know, the minimum driving age is sixteen for a driver's license. But I believe it should be higher than sixteen. This is because the younger you are, the little responsibility is. What I believe is that they should change it from eighteen to nineteen. But there isn't really a problem with the age of fifteen. I think that is a perfect age to begin taking lessons.

Another thing that disturbed Polly was the want of exercise. To dress up and parade certain streets for an hour every day, to stand talking in doorways, or drive out in a fine carriage, was not the sort of exercise she liked, and Fan would take no other. Indeed, she was so shocked, when Polly, one day, proposed a run down the mall, that her friend never dared suggest such a thing again. At home, Polly ran and rode, coasted and skated, jumped rope and raked hay, worked in her garden and rowed her boat; so no wonder she longed for something more lively than a daily promenade with a flock of giddy girls, who tilted along in high-heeled boots, and costumes which made Polly ashamed to be seen with some of them. So she used to slip out alone sometimes, when Fanny was absorbed in novels, company, or millinery, and get fine brisk walks round the park, on the unfashionable side, where the babies took their airings; or she went inside, to watch the boys coasting, and to wish she could coast too, as she did at home . . .

One afternoon, just before dinner, she felt so tired of doing nothing, that she slipped out for a run. It had been a dull day; but the sun was visible now, setting brightly below the clouds. It was cold but still and Polly trotted down the smooth, snow-covered mall humming to herself, and trying not to feel homesick. The coasters were at it with all their might, and she watched them, till her longing to join the fun grew irresistible. On the hill, some little girls were playing with their sleds, real little girls, in warm hoods and coats, rubber boots and mittens, and Polly felt drawn toward them in spite of her fear of Fan.

1.On the hill, some little girls were playing with their sleds, real little girls, in warm hoods and coats, rubber boots and mittens, and Polly felt drawn toward them in spite of her fear of Fan.

2.Indeed, she was so shocked, when Polly, one day, proposed a run down the mall, that her friend never dared suggest such a thing again.

3.To dress up and parade certain streets for an hour every day, to stand talking in doorways, or drive out in a fine carriage, was not the sort of exercise she liked, and Fan would take no other.

Answers

Answer: 3.To dress up and parade certain streets for an hour every day, to stand talking in doorways, or drive out in a fine carriage, was not the sort of exercise she liked, and Fan would take no other.

Explanation:

The sentence that best supports Polly’s reasons for keeping her outings a secret from Fan was "To dress up and parade certain streets for an hour every day, to stand talking in doorways, or drive out in a fine carriage, was not the sort of exercise she liked, and Fan would take no other".

From the text, we can see that Polly's idea of an exercise was quite different from what Fan wanted. This is supported by the above answer and this resulted in her keeping her outing as a secret.

Read this excerpt from "Types of Volcanoes."

Volcanoes are structures formed around openings (vents) in the ground where molten lava, ash, or gas escape from inside the Earth. We have all heard of lava, but not everyone knows how it forms. Deep inside the Earth, rock that melted long ago beneath the Earth’s crust forms magma, a very hot liquid that mixes with dissolved gases and crystals.

How does the author show that he is writing for readers who are not experts on volcanoes?

He uses terms such as "ash," "crystals," "molten," and "magma."
He writes about differences between what happens to the ground and what happens under it.
He uses terms such as vents and dissolved gases and crystals.
He says that the readers have all heard of lava, but not everyone knows where it comes from.

Explanation:

The author's excerpt type of volcanoes tries to say that readers have heard about the lava but they don't know its source. Hence option D is correct.

What are the types of volcanoes?

The volcano is an opening inside the earth that is connected to the mange chambers buried deep indie the earth and they are presented by various types such as explosive, shield, and composite.

The volcanos are hence a natural disaster as the author tells the readers that they bring ash and magma deep from the earth.

Language is a defining
feature of
A. economics.
B. governments.
C. culture.

Answers

Answer:

C. culture

Explanation:

culture is made up of language, tradition, music, etc

Language is a defining feature of culture. So, The correct answer is C. culture. Because language is the main means by which members of a culture interact with one another, language is a distinguishing characteristic of culture.

Language is a tool for expressing thoughts, exchanging beliefs, and fostering connections. In order to pass culture from one generation to the next, it is also used.

Governments and economies play a significant role in culture, but they are not as essential as language. Government is the structure that enacts laws and upholds order, whereas economics is the process through which a community produces and distributes goods and services. These systems are all founded on the use of language, however they can differ significantly between cultures.

For instance, the United States has a democratically elected government and a capitalist economy. English, the official language of the United States, is the foundation of these systems. However, there are a variety of other languages that are widely spoken in the US and have a significant cultural impact.

As a result of language being the main means through which members of a culture communicate with one another, language is a characteristic of culture. Language is a tool for expressing thoughts, exchanging beliefs, and fostering connections. In order to pass culture from one generation to the next, it is also used.
