Is graffiti art? Thanks to the works of Banksy, Shepard Fairey, and other renowned street artists, many
people believe that it is. Indeed, pieces by the most famous street artists can be found in museums and
auction houses around the world. However, others maintain that even the most masterful street art is
no more than an illegal, destructive act. Detractors certainly have a point: street art is illegal. When
someone paints where she does not have permission to paint, she is breaking the law-it does not
matter if she has scrawled profanity or recreated the Mona Lisa. Illegal street art is certainly a problem
in many cities, but eliminating it completely would deprive people of some of the most brilliant,
thought-provoking art being made today. Perhaps the best solution is for cities to create special areas
where street artists can practice their art legally. Cities could designate certain bridges, tunnels, or
public buildings as legal areas for street artists to paint. Doing so would not only give street artists a
place to display their talents, it might also reduce the amount of illegal vandalism in other places.
Based on the way it is used in sentence 5, the word "detractors" most nearly means
Answer: a person who disparages someone or something.
Explanation:
Answer:
I think grafitti not good and illegal. There are different forms like the non-innapropriate art on buildings and the sidewalk, that is ok. But when there is graffitti on a playground or on nature, that is deffinently not ok and that is when it becomes illegal.

"The clump of laurel in which the criminal lay was in the angle of a road which after ascending southward a steep acclivity to that point turned sharply to the west, running along the summit for perhaps one hundred yards. There it turned southward again and went zigzagging downward through the forest. At the salient of that second angle was a large flat rock, jutting out northward, overlooking the deep valley from which the road ascended. The rock capped a high cliff; a stone dropped from its outer edge would have fallen sheer downward one thousand feet to the tops of the pines. The angle where the soldier lay was on another spur of the same cliff. Had be been awake he would have commanded a view, not only of the short arm of the road and the jutting rock, but of the entire profile of the cliff below it. It might well have made him giddy to look." The description of the setting in the paragraph above, helps create A. the exposition. B. the rising action. C. the climax. D. the conflict.

Write a study guide for students who are reading the Declaration of Independence for the first
time. Assume they are reading this document in English class and already know the basic
historical context. The study guide will have two parts: an introduction that explains how
language is used in the text, and 6 to 12 annotations that help your reader to understand and
begin to analyze the document as they read.
Answer:
Why did they write it?
They wanted to explain why they were fighting to be their own country, independent of England. This is what they had to say (but in easier words).
What the Declaration of Independence says
Sometimes one group of people decide to split off from another group, and to become an independent country, as the laws of Nature and of God say that they can. But when this happens, if they want other people to respect them, they should explain why they are splitting off.
We think these things are obviously true:
That all men are created equal
That all men have some rights given to them by God
That among these rights are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
So whenever any government is getting in the way of these rights, people have the right to change it or get rid of it, and to make a new government, in whatever way seems most likely to make them safe and happy.
We tried to get along with England
People should not change their government without a good reason, so people usually suffer as long as they can under the government they have, rather than change it. But when there have been a lot of problems for a long time, it is their right and their duty to throw off that government, and to set up a better government.
A list of bad things the King did to us
We here in America have suffered for a very long time, and now we should change our government. The king of England has done many bad things to us – here is a list:
The King won’t let us pass laws we need for everybody’s good.
Even when we do pass laws, he won’t sign them so they can go into effect.
He tried to force men to give up their right to make laws.
He calls men together to make laws in the most inconvenient times and places, so that they won’t be able to go discuss the new laws.
The King won’t let new settlers come to America, and he won’t let the settlers take over new land from the Native Americans.
The King won’t let us choose our own judges, and instead he chooses them all himself, so they’re all on his side.
He sends lots of new government officials that we don’t want, and he makes us pay for them.
The King sends lots of English soldiers here when there isn’t even a war, and makes us let them live in our own houses.
He tells us these soldiers can do whatever they want and don’t have to obey the law.
The King won’t let us buy and sell things from wherever we want. We can only buy things from England.
The King makes us pay all kinds of taxes without asking us about it.
He won’t let us have a jury for our trials, only a judge.
He sends people accused of crimes far away to England for their trials.
The King tries to get the African-American slaves to revolt against us and tries to get the “Indian Savages” to attack us.
Yeah, we tried asking nicely
When we ask him to stop, he just keeps on doing more bad things. We have tried to talk to the other people who live in England. We asked them to stop these crimes against us, but they have acted as though they were deaf. So we have to separate from England, and they will be our enemies during the war, though we hope they’ll be our friends when there is peace.
So this is what we’re going to do
So we think that God will see that we are doing the right thing when we declare that the United States are now completely independent of the King of England. We have no more political connection to England at all. And as independent states, we say that each state has the right to make war, to make peace, to make alliances with other countries, trade with other countries, and do everything else that countries do. And we promise that we will fight for our independence with the help of God – we promise by our lives, our property, and our sacred honor.

In at least 150 words, consider the themes present in Animal Farm and explain how these themes relate to the
Impossibility of the survival of Animallsm on Animal Farm.
Answer:
Animal Farm, A novella by George Orwell, tells the tale of the downtrodden animals of Manor Farm, who after much oppression from their master, take over the farm for themselves. In the beginning, it seems like the start of a life of freedom and plenty, but ruthless and cunning elite emerges and begins to take control of the farm. The animals find themselves ensnared once again as one form of tyranny gradually replaces the other. The novella is a critique of revolutionary Russia and idealism betrayed by power and corruption. Orwell uses allegory between Animal Farm and the Soviet Union to highlight the corruption of socialist ideals in the soviet union, the power of language and propaganda, and the dangers of a naive working class. One of the main themes in the novella is how easily pure ideals can become corrupted, as they did in the Soviet Union. The novel opens with Old Major, a character who represents Karl Marx, telling the animals on the farm of his Orwell highlights how powerful the use of language and propaganda can be when used to control society.
