Find an editorial cartoon published in the last year. Research its topic online to make sure you understand the context for the cartoon.
Describe the cartoon and explain the point it is trying to make.
One of the editorial cartoons published in the last year is this one by RJ Matson (attached with this answer).
The cartoon depicts a scene of Russian President Vladimir Putin riding a tank into Ukraine, while US President Joe Biden and other Western leaders are watching from a distance, holding signs that say "Stop" or "No". The cartoon implies that the Western response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 was weak and ineffective, and that Putin was not deterred by their words or sanctions.
The cartoon is based on the historical and political context of the Russo-Ukrainian War, which began in 2014 with Russia's annexation of Crimea and its support for separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine. In 2022, Russia escalated the conflict by launching a large-scale military offensive across multiple fronts, aiming to capture more territory and destabilize the Ukrainian government.
The invasion sparked international condemnation and triggered a humanitarian crisis, as millions of Ukrainians were displaced or fled the country. The West, led by the US and NATO, expressed solidarity with Ukraine and imposed diplomatic and economic sanctions on Russia, but did not intervene militarily or provide lethal weapons to Ukraine. The cartoon suggests that these measures were insufficient to stop Putin's aggression and protect Ukraine's sovereignty.

Answer:
Throughout the novel, Edna feels caught between the way others see her and the way she sees herself. Identify several moments in which this struggle is apparent and explain how the text portrays Edna's growing awareness of these contradicting views. What is the significance of this perceived split between the "outer Edna" and the "inner Edna"? Based on the title of the novel, “The Awakening” her view of herself is perhaps the purpose of the entire novel. Edna’s views of herself progressively change as the novel goes on where she at first is submissive and resistant abiding by the standards of a Victorian woman which she feels she is not however, she realizes” her awakening” where she does not have to abide by society standards since she a is a human of freewill who can do as she pleases. In this writing we will view several eye-opening moments Edna displays examining her apparent struggles that avail her self-growing awareness throughout the novel. Moreover, Edna should not expect herself to live up to the standards of others but should however utilize her growing awareness through her inner and outer self, seeing the world through her own lens, thoughts, feelings, and opinions.

Sonia sat down in the guidance counselor's office, ready to explain her
future. She was going to be a writer, she announced. All she had to do
was finish high school, go to college, and then get a job of some kind
- something that would give her a source of income. Then, she
continued, on the weekends, except for those weekends when she had
soccer practice (because there was no chance she was giving that up).
and as long as her friends didn't invite her to go out partying, she
would write the great American novel. As Sonia finished triumphantly
and looked up for approval, the guidance counselor frowned
Which statement best explains how the plot of the story helps develop the
main character?
O A. Sonia's announcement of her impressive future shows that she
has a lot of untapped talent
OB. Sonia's description of her impractical plans shows that she is
more of a dreamer than a doer.
O c. The guidance counselor's frown shows that Sonia struggles with
school and work
OD. The guidance counselor's choice to meet with Sonia shows that
Sonia is both artistic and practical
PREVIOUS
lol
Answer: Sonia's description of her impractical plans shows that she is more of a dreamer than a doer.
Explanation:
From the story, Sonia said that she was going to be a writer. She said that all she needed to do was to finish high school, go to college, and then get a job of some kind - something that would give her a source of income.
The above statement that "something that would give her a source of income" shows that she doesn't really have a plan to become a writer.
Then, she also said that she wasn't going to give up soccer practice and that as long as her friends didn't invite her to go out partying, she would write the great American novel. This means that if she's invited to party, she won't become a writer.
Therefore, the statement that explains how the plot of the story helps develop the main character is that Sonia's description of her impractical plans shows that she is more of a dreamer than a doer.

Then you must play the audio track again, this time you won't pay attention to the dialog, but to the ambient sounds and try to find out what that environment is. Do you hear water sounds? car sounds? bird sounds? what can you perceive from the environment? all this must be described by you.

However you may have reformed your life in many things, and may have had religious affections, and may keep up a form of religion in your families and closets, and in the house of God, it is nothing but his mere pleasure that keeps you from being this moment swallowed up in everlasting destruction. —Jonathan Edwards What is the denotation of everlasting in this passage?
Answer: Forever or eternal
Explanation:
The denotative meaning of a word refers to its literal meaning which is in contrast to its connotative meaning which is a secondary meaning that is derived from making associations with the word.
The literal meaning of everlasting is something that goes on forever or is eternal. When a person is to everlasting destruction, it means that they are to be doomed forever and this is a common theme in Christianity as it is taught that should a person die in sin, they would go to hell forever where they would be doomed and destroyed for all time.
Answer: eternal

Where do I put these
Answer:
Students who don't study don't do well in school. I am a student. Therefore I don't do well in school. ⇒ HASTY GENERALIZATION.
Hasty generalization occurs when a person reaches a conclusion that is not supported by the evidence that they relied on to reach the conclusion. Saying that you won't do well because you are a student is not supported by the evidence that students who do not study will fail.
The torrential downpour was light this afternoon ⇒ UNDERSTATEMENT.
Torrential rains are known to be quite heavy so saying that they were light is an understatement.
Uniforms are the leading cause of stripping students of their individuality. I don't understand why students in high school are forced to start their day so early ⇒ STRAW MAN.
Straw man fallacy is where an argument is supported by evidence that does not actually support it. The evidence here that students start their day so early does not support uniforms stripping students of their individuality.
Parents are unreasonably strict when it comes to curfews. After all, they can't possibly remember what its like to be a teenager. ⇒ AD HOMINEM.
Ad Hominem occurs when the person making a counter argument is attacked instead of their argument. The statement here attacks parents directly instead of the argument that they are strict with curfews.
