It's not a cause to help others, but to help themselves. The seniors of Altamont High want the administration of their school to add a coffee bar to the library. A coffee bar, the seniors argue, would make students more likely to visit the library and be tempted to read books. They also believe that a coffee bar would help make money for the school. As an added bonus, seniors also claim that they will be much more awake for first period. Although the seniors are putting up signs and doing press interviews, the principal of Altamont High School has yet to comment on the matter. Which sentence serves as the best introductory sentence to the above paragraph

Answers

Answer 1

This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. Since the passage is the same, I will omit it:

Which sentence serves as the best introductory sentence to the above paragraph?

A. Coffee can be quite stimulating and help students focus.

B. Seniors at Altamont High School are working for an unusual cause.

C. Some people wish that they had coffee available before their earliest class.

D. Some parents are opposed to having coffee served in the school library.

Answer:

The sentence that serves as the best introductory sentence to the paragraph is:

B. Seniors at Altamont High School are working for an unusual cause.

Explanation:

An introductory sentence serves as a guide for readers, so that they will have an idea of what they are about to read. It also serves to catch readers' attention, making them curious and interested.

In this case, a good way to choose an introductory sentence is by simply matching the different options to the first sentence of the paragraph. If they are a good match, if one sentence completes the meaning and message of the other, then we have found our introductory sentence. Let's give each option a try.

A. Coffee can be quite stimulating and help students focus. It's not a cause to help others, but to help themselves. → The two sentences do not match. There is nothing about a cause in the introductory sentence. INCORRECT

B. Seniors at Altamont High School are working for an unusual cause. It's not a cause to help others, but to help themselves. → This is a perfect match. One sentence is completing the meaning of the other. This option is CORRECT

C. Some people wish that they had coffee available before their earliest class. It's not a cause to help others, but to help themselves. → Again, the two sentences are not working together. INCORRECT

D. Some parents are opposed to having coffee served in the school library. It's not a cause to help others, but to help themselves. → This could make sense if we had more context, but not as it is. The introductory sentence does not necessarily relate to a cause. INCORRECT

Answers

Answer:

Short Answer: It allowed them to criticize someone other than themselves

Explanation:

When people feel bad about themselves, they have a tendency to deflect blame onto someone else. It's common human nature. Another reason is that Maycomb functions much like an echo chamber, so any pervading gossip from Stephanie Crawford, despite her reputation, spreads like wildfire, and in Boo's case not much is known about him so he is easily rejected and criticized by the town in general. As you get further into the book, you'll encounter a certain "drunkard" and a black man who face the same fate as Boo Radley.

Answers

Answer:

b) Not refined or processed.

Explanation:

The word "crude" is used to refer to the natural state of something, without any changes done to it. This means that 'crude' refers to things that are in their original condition without undergoing any change or correction.

In the given passage, the speaker talks of "crude oil from Lake Maracaibo . . . to be made into gasoline, kerosene, and diesel oil." This means that the oil that they got from the lake is in its original state, before any process is done on it to change its properties. This, in short, means the oil is unrefined or not yet processed.

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

Read the excerpt from The Diary of Anne Frank. Mr. Frank. Now. About the noise. While the men are in the building below, we must have complete quiet. Every sound can be heard down there, not only in the workrooms, but in the offices, too. The men come at about eight-thirty, and leave at about five-thirty. So, to be perfectly safe, from eight in the morning until six in the evening we must move only when it is necessary, and then in stockinged feet. We must not speak above a whisper. We must not run any water. We cannot use the sink, or even, forgive me, the w.c. The pipes go down through the workrooms. It would be heard. Why must the Frank and Van Daan families most likely stay quiet during the day

Answers

Answer:

They do not know whether they can trust the others who work in the building.

Explanation:

The Diary of Anne Frank is a first-person’s account of a young girl named Anne Frank. The book contains her narrative of their life in the secret Annex, hiding from being captured by the Nazi Germans.

In the given excerpt from Mr. Frank's dialogue, we get to know that the need for silence during office hours is a must for the people in hiding. It was to ensure that they are not heard of by the office workers and thus, guarantee their safety. Mr. Frank told them not to make a sound beyond a whisper, and not to do anything that produces a sound or the workers may hear them. This need to be quiet during the day is because they do not know if they can trust the workers with their safety.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Answers

Answer:

Explain how ignoring in any form wouldn't be advantageous at all.

Explanation:

Ignoring any person's/child's feelings, no matter how negative or aggressive, can lead to dangerous outcomes, and they would probably feel ignored, leading to self-isolation. Another outcome could be that they would begin to ignore you, and debates would become arguments, and arguments become rejection. If the parent persists, ask them what good would come out of ignoring, then ask them if it's worth it.

A positive impact was people working for an important cause of having electricity. One of the negative effects was the miserable conditions that hard-working people had to endure and child abuse."

One positive was developing systems such as converting coal into energy for houses which benefited people who had the money to afford it. Another positive impact was that people were working for the important cause of having electricity.

Answers

Answer:

The type of weather you can expect to see is sunny weather.

Explanation:

When we have a mass of air that is cool and dry, whirling in a way that the winds spiral out of it, we have what is called a high pressure system. High pressure systems cause sunny weather and blue skies. On the other hand, a low pressure system would bring storms, since it is comprised of a mass of moist and warm air. In the Northern Hemisphere, the mass of air in high pressure systems rotates clockwise, while in low pressure systems it rotates counterclockwise.
