Read this excerpt from "Myths About the Founding Fathers."
The myth may have to do with a letter he wrote to his daughter about the choice of the eagle "as the representative of our country." He criticized the eagle as “a rank coward . . . by no means a proper emblem.” He joked that the turkey was a better choice because it would attack British troops should they “invade his Farm Yard.” However, he never actually formally proposed to place the turkey on our Great Seal.
How do these sentences contribute to the development of ideas in the article?
A. It suggests that Franklin's daughter is the source of many of the made-up stories about him.
B. It proves that Franklin was the inspiration behind choosing the eagle for the Great Seal.
C. It shows a known story about Franklin is based solely on a few words that were meant to be funny, not serious.
D. It describes Franklin's personal view of the British compared to Americans.

I in "To My Dear and Loving Husband, the speaker describes her love for her husband using imagery relating to - a. wealth and nature b. thirst and hunger c. water and air d. gold and diamonds
Answer:
A. Wealth and nature
Explanation:
To My Dear and Loving Husband is a poem written by Anne Bradstreet, the most prominent of early English poets of North America and the first writer in England's North American colonies to be published.
Imagery is a literary device in which the writer creates images in the mind of the reader through words by appealing to their senses. The speaker in the given poem describes her love for her husband using imagery relating to wealth and nature. We can see this in the following lines:
I prize thy love more than whole mines of gold,
Or all the riches that the East doth hold.
My love is such that rivers cannot quench,
Nor ought but love from thee give recompense.
Mines of gold and all the riches that the East doth hold are phrases connected to wealth, while the phrase that rivers cannot quench is connected to nature. This is why option A is the correct one.

Read the following excerpt from the article "Volunteers Count Every Street Tree in New York City." As you read, think about which statements are opinions and which ones are facts.
Did you know? Over 80 percent of the U.S. population lives in cities or metropolitan areas, making urban trees more important than ever. Trees bring many benefits to human health--they filter air pollution, release oxygen, reduce mental stress, and absorb rainwater and noise. Trees in cities connect rural forests and parks to the urban landscape, creating habitat linkages for wildlife species like migratory birds. These are some of the many reasons the U.S. Forest Service supports trees in urban areas, and why the City of New York has been recruiting residents to count its trees for decades.
Which of these statements is an opinion?
a. "Trees in cities connect rural forests and parks to the urban landscape. . . ."
b. "[U]rban trees [are] more important than ever."
c. "Over 80 percent of the U.S. population lives in cities or metropolitan areas. . . ."
d. "Trees bring many benefits to human health. . . ."
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Can everybody that sees this go subscribe to my YT Channel KingEli322 please I'm trying to get to 1,000 subs before January 1, 2021 Please help me reach my goal
The correct response is - "[U]rban trees [are] more important than ever.". Therefore option B is correct.
What is Population?The term "population" usually refers to the total number of people living in a certain area, such as a city or town, region, nation, continent, or entire planet.
Making decisions can be aided by knowledge of how population parameters, such as size, regional distribution, age structure, or birth and death rates, vary over time.
By 2022, the global population is expected to increase at a pace of around 0.84% annually, down from 1.05% in 2020, 1.08% in 2019, 1.10% in 2018, and 1.12% in 2017. Currently, 67 million individuals are added to the population annually, according to estimates.
Any whole group that shares at least one trait is referred to be a population. People do not make up all populations. People, animals, and other types of life are all examples of populations.

In line 19, the author refers to the Occupy Wall Street protesters as "losers." Does the author really think that the Occupy Wall Street protesters are "losers." Cite text evidence to support your answer.
Answer:
No, the author does not really think that the Occupy Wall Street protesters are 'losers.'
Explanation:
'Who Speaks For The 1%?' is an article written by Joel Stein. The article is a satire and author takes a satirical stab at speaking for 1%.
In line 19, when the author refers to the Occupy Wall Street protesters aas 'losers', he did not literally mean to call them losers. The article is a satirical dig at 1%, whom the author considers, in some way, responsible for economic crisis in the country.
The next line furthers the satire when the author states that the 1%-ers are not able to take stand for themselves.
'...the 1% are available for some serious networking. But when I started talking to them, I learned that for all their supposed power, they are now too afraid to stand up for themselves.'

Answer:
Lonely and alone.
Explanation:
Though Ebenezer attented a boarding school and belonged to a pretty good family back then, he was always lonely and alone at school.
Stave 2 depicts how Ebenezer would sit all alone near the fireplace while reading books. When the Christmas spirit showed Ebenezer this scene from the past, he wept to see himself as a poor forgotten self.

chapter 8 summary hunger games
Answer:
Once she leaves the private session, Katniss begins to panic and worries that the Gamemakers will see what she did as an act of defiance. She is convinced that they will punish her by giving her a very low score on her performance, which will make it difficult to get sponsors, whose gifts are crucial for survival in the Games. She hides in her room until dinner, where she tells everyone what she did in her private session. They are all shocked except Haymitch who finds it amusing and reassures her that they will probably not arrest her or her family but they may make her life hell in the arena.
When she tries to downplay her archery skills, Peeta calls Katniss a survivor and reveals that even his own mother thinks that Katniss will survive over him. She responds by saying that she would not have survived without him and his generosity years ago. Haymitch recommends that they not reveal their strengths until the private sessions with the Game makers and to instead pick up useful skills during the training instead of showing off. He also tells them to stay together at all times and pretend to be good friends with one another. At the training session, Katniss watches the tributes and realizes that almost all of them are bigger than her although she thinks she may have an edge as many of them are clearly underfed. The tributes from the richer districts are healthier though and well trained. She realizes how much of an advantage these Career Tributes have as they have trained for this all their life and volunteer to be in the games. The training area is broken into different stations with combat training and survival skills.
Answer:
As soon as she leaves she begins to panic, wondering if they will punish her for her defiance. The Gamemakers score the tributes from one to twelve based on their performance, and Katniss is certain her score will be very low. That could make it difficult to get sponsors, and their gifts are critical for survival in the arena. She locks herself in her room and doesn’t come out until Effie calls her to dinner. At the table, everyone wants to know how Peeta and Katniss did. Katniss tells her story, and everyone is shocked but Haymitch, who finds it amusing. When the scores are announced, Peeta gets an eight and Katniss gets an eleven. She’s stunned, but Haymitch says they probably liked her temper.
In the morning, Katniss lies in bed for a time after waking and thinks of when she first met Gale. She was in the woods hunting and saw several rabbits hanging from snares. When she went to inspect them, Gale came forward. She’d seen him before: his father died in the same mine blast as hers and they both attended the memorial. They talked about hunting at first, and over time they became a team. Katniss thinks of how close they are and misses him. She has with Gale what she pretends to have with Peeta. Effie calls her down for breakfast, and when she arrives at the table, Haymitch says there’s been a change in strategy: Peeta has asked to be coached separately.
