Across the room, your classmate opens his mouth wide, takes a deep breath in, and exhales. Before you know it, you find yourself yawning too. While scientists do not yet know exactly why yawning spreads from person to person, the experience of "catching" a friend's yawn is one that many can relate to.

Explanation:

From the given sentence, I have been able to fix the error that I discovered in the sentence.

From the sentence, I discovered that there is an error in "...you find yourself yawning to". So, we will change the "to" to "too" in order for the sentence to be corrected and fixed.

So, it becomes: "Before you know it, you find yourself yawning too".

What can the reader infer about Scout and Atticun's relationship from the author's use of language
in this excerpt?

Answers

Answer:

D. The author's use of the phrase "there was nothing Jem or I could say about him" shows that Scout feels distant and alienated from her father Atticus.

Explanation:

Option D is the correct answer that can be inferred by a reader about Scout and Atticus's relationship from the author's use of language  in this excerpt.

This is true because from the beginning of the excerpt, they have asked to know why Atticus was so old. This depicts that even Scout does not have a full knowledge about her father. This actually means that she is somewhat distant from him.

As a result of not knowing much about her father, there was nothing they could say about him. This reveals that Scout feels distant and alienated from her father.

Do the mentioned struggles still exist? Has the country evolved since the speech was given? Has society responded to the specific appeals for change? CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME its due today

Answers

Answer:

He’s ideas would still be relevant today, because racism is still happening. Yes the mentioned struggles, like people of color and whites still going at it, still exist. I feel like the country has only evolved a little since he gave he’s speech. People are still protesting for their freedom, Their human rights,etc. half of society had responded to his speech. Only some are fighting for other people’s lives.

Explanation:

He said I have a dream that one day my children will live in a world based on the content of their character but not by the color of their skin. I think that is still applied today because some people still struggle with racism. There was the big blm movement and they wanted to be treated fairly. I think that some people would enjoy hearing the speech today it is still really relevant and we still go by it today

Elena is on page 55, how many pages are in the book?
Lin has drawn a diagram to solve this question.
Find her error. Then explain her mistake. Use the
sketch tools to help.

Answers

Answer:

the book should have a total of 175 pages

Explanation:

Let the total number of pages in the book = X

Andre = 1/5 of X

Elena = 55 pages

Elena = 1/5 of x + 20 pages

55 pages = (1/5)x + 20 pages

55 - 20 = (1/5)x

35 = (1/5)x

x = 35 / (1/5)

x = 175

So the book has a total of 175 pages

Not 100% sure what the diagram means, but

Based on Lin's diagram, it seems like the book has 275 pages, which is not true.

Digital media are spaces in which communication and information exchange is generated between users and producers of digital content, whether they are companies, bloggers or news sites.

Explanation:

Here are 5 sentences to raise the awareness of people who are using digital media.

Acquiring information from digital media can be useful and easy to access, but you have to be very careful with the sources, since many times they can be unreliable.The scope of the news used in digital media is massive, therefore you have to be careful with what you write since it can reach anyone anywhere in the world.If the internet fails, the connection with the cameras, or there is some technical aspect that makes it difficult to broadcast it will be something difficult to solve at that time until it is technically resolved.The cost of launching a communication medium is not small, especially when it comes to licenses, equipment and personnel to create a communication medium.People are dependent on technological devices such as mobile phones, which is one of the most used devices to keep up to date with everything that happens in the world, and therefore is generating dependency problems.
