Answer:
Explanation:
It was a bright shiny morning and Phillip and I had just begun the day's walk. Like we have done every morning for the past six years. " You must never stop moving" my father had told my best friend and I " If you stop before you get to tomorrow you will never make it.." So that is what we have done, walked and walked and walked for six whole years to a place that we don't even know what looks like. But apparently we will know when we get there, at least that's what dad and Phillip have told me. "You will feel it when you get there". But i'm not convinced. I mean the to much of the world is rotting,why would there be anything left? The virus ruined everything. First it just was killing of the old, then it spread to the young. Then within three years the entire human race as we knew it was gone. How is Phillip and I still alive you ask? Well we are immune, yeah lucky us. I mean don't get me wrong, I'm grateful for the fact I won't turn into a mindless monster of a human. But that also means that we have a huge target on my back. They call themselves the "seekers" "we will seek out the cure, we will seek out the immune, we are seeking for you." They have been "seeking" for Ten years. So that's why we keep going, and going and going. Because if we stop we will get seeked, (that's what they call it when your caught). The seekers have control of all the land that's liveable, and in order to enter that land you are tested first to see if your immune. And if you are captured and Tortured, (Tested is their prefered choice of words). And no one makes it back out alive. Philip is the only reason i make through the days. He is this bright ray of light in my cold dark world, Dad and I found him Eight years ago. When we were both Eight years old. Dad and I were shopping in an old grocery store and I was digging through a stack of army blankets when I got to the bottom and there was a small sleeping boy. I wanted to just leave him there but dad and his big heart said otherwise. But he wouldn't have made it without us. Back then he was much shorter than me, weaker too but sadly i have only grown five more inches since then. Phil on the other had grew two whole feet. He really likes to call attention to that, on an hourly basis. I say he likes me, you know likes me likes me. And if we are being honest i am beginning to like him too. But I don't have time for love, I'm too busy focusing on keeping us both alive. Only thing Phil is good at is shooting, and that's only handy when someone is shooting at us. So I'm the one who finds the food, the water, the clothes, everything we need in order to stay alive. Right now I'm taking us to the old mall, it's supposed to still have clothes and shoes. Phil really needs some more shoes, if i have to listen to him complain one more time about a rock sticking him in the foot then i promise i'm going to lose it. Then after we found Bigfoot some shoes we were going to the old Mc donalds, i heard that the Coke machine still works. I haven't had coke since dad died. Mainly because you can't find it, but also the fact that it reminds me too much of him it was our thing. Dad loved it, it also is what got him killed, it was my birthday and Dad and Phil were determined to get me a decent birthday present. They thought I was sleeping so they left the hotel room we were in that night to go find some. I wasn't asleep though, because them two couldn't be quite long enough if their life depended on it. So I followed them down back streets and up alleys. Until they arrived in an old abandoned Walmart, the most intact one I had ever seen. I watched them go in and I waited and waited, ten minutes later a group of people went in after them, turns out that those people were immune hunters. By the time I got to Dad to warn him it was too late, He sacrificed himself for us, before he died he told me to never give up, find your tomorrow. He then wanted to tell Phil something in private, but Phil told me in a letter that he made him promise he would never leave me. I think Dad always knew that Phill would fall for me, I think he also knew that I would too. I've tried every year for six years, on this day to drink it but i've never been able to.

Read the following passage:
I was tormented by what I had done. At the lakeside that
morning, I was unnerved by the eerily still surface of the
lake, like icy glass in an empty atmosphere.
Which sentence describes the effect of the figurative language in this
passage?
A. the descriptions of nature make the setting seem important
B.the setting is described in terms of death
C. the use of water reminds readers of rebirth
D.the narrators mental state is anguished
Answer: I believe the answer is D
Explanation: Since the narrator says "I was tormented by what i had done" we can infer that he sees everything in such a way because he feels regret or remorse for that specific action and his outlook on the world at that moment is skewed.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The narrator says that he has been tormented, although the nature is important here it is only showing us this his mental state is anguished and he is unnerved by anything that seems eerie.
There was very much the same solemnity of demeanour on the part of the spectators; as befitted a people amongst whom religion and law were almost identical, and in whose character both were so thoroughly interfused, that the mildest and the severest acts of public discipline were alike made venerable and awful. Meagre, indeed, and cold, was the sympathy that a transgressor might look for, from such bystanders at the scaffold.

When should you paraphrase information instead of using a direct quote?
The correct answer is D. When the source goes into detail that you don't need
Explanation:
If you quote a source you include the exact words of the author; this means you do not modify any of the words, which is recommended in case you want to preserve the word choice of the author, the information might be altered if you summarize or paraphrase, or if the quote is memorable.
On the other hand, when you paraphrase you use your own words to state the point of the author. A valid reason to do this is "when the source goes into detail that you don't need" because by paraphrasing you can focus on key ideas from the source rather than quoting all the words of the author. Also, this is recommended if the essence of the ideas is still preserved.

Can someone write a long Paragraph about why we have to stand 6ft apart and if it is helpful and keeps us safe or something help me out please
Answer:
social distancing, also known as "physical distancing," means keeping space outside of your home between yourself and others. To practice distancing socially or physically. Stay from other persons at least 6 feet (about 2 arms long). Don't get in groups. Stay away from crowded spots and avoid mass gatherings. staying a long distance apart from each other is very helpful as it might help the speard of the corona virus aka covi.d 1.9. The virus which causes corona spreads from one person to another. People are considered to be more infectious when they're (the sickest) symptomatic. This is why CDC advises isolating such patients either in the hospital or at home (depending on how ill they are) until they are healthier and no longer present a risk of infecting anyone. When someone is coughing or sneezing, small drops of liquid are sprayed out, sometimes unseeable. If you're too close to stand, you can breathe them in. According to the World Health Organisation, those droplets may include the coronavirus, if the individual coughing is sick. Six feet are high enough enough to be out of control. if you don’t stand 6th feet apart you are not protecting yourself properly, the distance of 3 feet to 6 feet from each other is known as the breathing zone. That means people within that space are breathing and exhaling basically the same air. If someone has the virus, they’re essentially exhaling it into the air you’re breathing. overall staying 6th feet apart is very beneficial to the community and to keep yourself and loved ones safe.

Nancy took a breath and gathered her thoughts. She imagined that passing through the gray-zone door into Level 4 was like a spacewalk, except that instead of going into outer space, you went into inner space, which was full of the pressure of life trying to get inside your suit. People went into Level 4 areas all the time at the Institute, particularly the civilian animal caretakers. But going into a containment zone to perform a necropsy on an animal that had died of an amplified unknown hot agent was something a little different. This was high-hazard work.
