Answers

Answer 1

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 2

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.

Why can Peer pressure be a good thing?

Answers

Answer:

Peer pressure can sometimes be good because it pushes you to achieve new heights.

Explanation:

In my experience, in my time at middle school, the community surrounding me got very good grades and did lots of extra-curricular activites, and it forced me to try new things, which eventually benefitted me in my high school. So, the new oppurtunities it exposes you to are very formative and helpful later on in life.

Peer pressure cannot be termed bad always. It can lead you to adopt good habits in life. Your peers may teach you some good things about life and encourage you to follow them.Therefore, peer pressure can also have a positive impact on your life and can actually lead you to make the right choices for yourself.

According to the article Cornelia Vertenstein says she believes in continuity and that her students learn to be persistent because of it.

She embody those things by refusing to allow a challenge (the pandemic) to stop her from teaching her students (continuity), and consequently manages through her persistence to teach her students those qualities, and to pull off a whole virtual event despite the present circumstances.

Continuity is the maintenance of consistent action over time, Cornelia embodies this trait by maintaining the schedule of her lessons with her students.

Which of these is a function of regression testers?

A. pointing out appealing aspects of the game

B. supervising the testing team

C. checking cross-platform compatibility

D. comparing the game to other titles and suggesting changes

Answers

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

I believe the answer is "comparing the game to the other titles and suggesting changes" because a regression testing looks at the results of past experiences. Therefore, when you are comparing something you are estimating the similarities or dissimilarities between two things, but in this case more than two.

Answer:

D. comparing the game to other titles and suggesting changes

Explanation:

Regression Testing is a software test that checks if a recent change in the code of a program/source code has affected the functionality of already existing features.

Among its other functions, it also checks and compares the game to other similar apps to check if they have the same titles and if they do, they suggest or recommend changes to the title to make the game unique.

Answers

Answer:

Yes; mental health.

Explanation:

Racism can indeed affect mental health. People treating someone unequally merely because of their colour, gender, ethnicity can leave a harmful mark on your brain. You start to doubt your very existence, start underestimating your strengths, and you feel as if the world doesn't care. This, in more extreme forms, can also lead to eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia. And there have been many cases of deaths because of racial discrimination. However, this can be prevented by self-awareness and active participation to put down racism.

PLEASE HELP!! match each type of text with the most logical organization structure.match each type of text with the most logical organization structure.

Answers

Answer:

An advice column - Problem and resolution

An article on the benefits of florescent lightbulbs over incandescent bulbs - Compare and contrast

A history text book - Chronological order

A software installation guide - Sequence

A letter to the editor - Central idea and supporting details

Explanation:

compare and contrast-A passage compares and contrast two or more things. Authors sometimes organize their writing by comparison and contrast. When you compare and contrast two or more people, places, events, or things, you find ways in which they are alike or different. Signal words can help you identify the type of text structure being used. Writing that uses comparison-and-contrast text structure often includes these common signal words:

like

both

also

although

but

more

while

however

Sequence-A passage list ideas in an order that flows from one to the next. Example - Math problems are work in sequence

Chronological-A passage that lists events in the order that they happen. Signal words can help you identify the type of text structure being used. Common signal words used in texts using chronological text structure are:

to begin

before

first

continue

then

next

later

final

Dates such as 1939 or March 7, 2010 and ages of people mentioned in the text are also helpful cues to determine the order of events.

After matching each type of text with the most logical organization structure, we have:

1. A history textbook - 2. Chronological order.

2. An advice column - 5. Problem and resolution.

3. A software installation guide - 3. Sequence.

4. An articles on the benefits of florescent lightbulbs over incandescent bulbs. - 1. Compare and contrast.

5. A letter to the editor - 4. Central idea and supporting details.

Let's take a look at each answer individually:

1. A history textbook aims at informing readers about past events. Those events are presented in chronological order, that is, in the order they happened throughout history.

2. An advice column has the purpose of giving a possible solution to a reader's problem. Therefore, it presents a problem-solution structure.

3. A software installation guide instructs the reader about the steps of the installation process. Since the steps must be executed in a certain sequence, they are presented in that sequence.

4. An article that discusses two kinds of light bulbs and their benefits will compare those bulbs (show their similarities) and also contrast them (show their differences).

5. Finally, a letter to the editor will present its author's main idea and then provide the details and evidence that support that idea. Its purpose is usually to persuade.

C.
Keep the speech short and simple. An unwilling audience can never be persuaded.
D.
Use inflated language to convince the audience you know more than you actually do.

Answers

A is the correct answer

Answer:

A. Do not expect the members of the audience to change their minds after the speech. Look for small gains, such as a simple nod of approval.

Explanation:

Members of an unwilling audience would take time to convince. It is best to look for the small gains in parts of the audience, use these as an "in" with the crowd. When performing your speech it is, of course, good to use inflated language but not to the extent that you can't verify your knowledge. An unwilling audience may be difficult to convince but it is never impossible. And, discussing your knowledge with the audience before is not an effective strategy. Your words should show your knowledge.

And places with no carpet on the floor—
Bare.

And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.

1)

Look into the point when the protagonist handles the conflict in the story, (Usually i would take some notes, it really helps) think about the way that the conflict was handled. How is it going to effect the protagonist?

2)

How does theme develop in a story? It can be either explicit or implicit, right? If this story is implicit, than it will go through a series of events that will help you conclude what the theme is. (Normally you would discover this in the end of the story.) If you are looking for how it specificaly developed, make sure to look for events that would signify the development of the theme.

Which by I how I read the title, I take it the theme is about making a fire, or what the feeling the author expirenced during the making.

Explanation:

One of the reasons it wouldn't make sense is Atticus could have gotten hurt. When youre defending someone, theres always some sort of risk in the situation. So if he didnt have to, then it wouldn't make sense for him to get involved in something he wasnt a part of originally. Atticus could have his reputation tarnished or he could be attacked for standing up for him. Let me know if you need more help.

Yes, it made sense for Atticus based on his character to take a stand to defend Tom Robinson, because Atticus knows that Tom didn't do anything to be imprisoned and is trying and willing to sacrifice time just to prove that Tom isn't guilty and should be released.
