Which sentence in the excerpt best supports the theme of harmonious living?
A Spark Neglected Burns the House
by Leo Tolstoy (adapted excerpt)
There once lived in a village a peasant named Iván Stcherbakóf. He was comfortably off, in the prime of life, the best worker in the village, and
had three sons all able to work. The eldest was married, the second about to marry, and the third was a big lad who could mind the horses and
was already beginning to plough. Iván's wife was an able and thrifty woman, and they were fortunate in having a quiet, hard-working daughter-
in-law. There was nothing to prevent Iván and his family from living happily. They had only one idle mouth to feed; that was Iván's old father,
who suffered from asthma and had been lying ill for seven years. Iván had all he needed three horses and a colt, a cow with a calf, and fifteen
sheep. The women made all the clothing for the family, besides helping in the fields, and the men tilled the land. They always had grain enough
of their own to last over beyond the next harvest and sold enough oats to pay the taxes and meet their other needs. So Iván and his children
might have lived quite comfortably had it not been for a feud between him and his next-door neighbor, Limping Gabriel, the son of Gordéy
Ivánof.
As long as old Gordéy was alive and Iván's father was still able to manage the household, the peasants lived as neighbors should. If the women
of either house happened to want a sieve or a tub, or the men required a sack, or if a cart-wheel got broken and could not be mended at once,
they used to send to the other house, and helped each other in neighborly fashion. When a calf strayed into the neighbor's thrashing-ground,
they would just drive it out, and only say, "Don't let it get in again, our grain is lying there." And such things as locking up the barns and
outhouses, hiding things from one another, or backbiting were never thought of in those days.
That was in the fathers' time. When the sons came to be at the head of the families, everything changed.
Answer:
If the women of either house happened to want a sieve or a tub, or the men required a sack, or if a cart-wheel got broken and could not be mended at once, they used to send to the other house, and helped each other in neighborly fashion.
Explanation:
Harmonious living is marked by cooperation and peace between two or more parties. People who live in harmony do things together and help one another when in need. Evidence of cooperative living is seen in the manner the men and the women of the two families helped each other. They coexisted peacefully in a "neighborly" way. This shows that there was no prevailing feud or hatred between the parties as they got along well.
Answer:
If the women of either house happened to want a sieve or a tub, or the men required a sack, or if a cart-wheel got broken and could not be mended at once, they used to send to the other house, and helped each other in neighborly fashion.
Explanation:
Your English-speaking friend is doing a school project on national legends and wants to know about a famous legend in your country. Write an email to your friend about this
Answer:
write to your national leaders about your concerns
Explanation: For one, you have the right to freedom of speach. Second, ot wouldnt really make sense to write to the mayor instead of your government leaders. Plus, writing is a more formal and proper way to send your concerns to our leaders. Lastly, it would probably make the most sense to send it to the national leader rather than the state leader because the state leader is simply just the leader of that state, wheras, the national leader takes part in the whole nation.
Writing an email to your friend about a national legend will require you to write an informal email.
What is an email?This is known to be a message written and distributed by electronic means from one source to another through a network.
Hence, we can see that you can write an informal email to a friend telling him about the famous legend in your own country without stress.

The ______ represents potential counterarguments, at times proffered during the initial argument.
Answer:
The rebuttal represents potential counterarguments, at times proffered during the initial argument.
Explanation:
A rebuttal is a counterargument or a denial of the argument made by someone/ the opponent's party. In other words, we can say it is the chance to rebut and challenge the argument made, providing counterarguments to weaken the main argument.
In an argument, be it a debate or even a court case, the rebuttal represents a potential counterargument chance which can at times be extended or offered during the argument. This is when the second party has the chance to prove to the audience or public that the arguments made by the first party are false or has loopholes. We can say a rebuttal allows the second party to point out the mistakes of the first party's arguments.

1. The features of the British culture
Answer:
British culture is influenced by the combined nations' history; its historically Christian religious life, its interaction with the cultures of Europe, the traditions of England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland, and the impact of the British Empire. Although British culture is a distinct entity, the individual cultures of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are diverse and have varying degrees of overlap and distinctiveness.[1]
British literature is particularly esteemed. The modern novel was invented in Britain, and playwrights, poets, and authors are among its most prominent cultural figures.[2] Britain has also made notable contributions to music, cinema, art, architecture and television. The UK is also the home of the Church of England, the state church and mother church of the Anglican Communion, the third-largest Christian denomination. Britain contains some of the world's oldest universities, has made many contributions to philosophy, science, technology and medicine, and is the birthplace of many prominent scientists and inventions. The Industrial Revolution began in the UK and had a profound effect on the family socio-economic and cultural conditions of the world. As a result of the British Empire significant British influence can be observed in the language, law, culture and institutions of its former colonies, most of which are members of the Commonwealth of Nations. A subset of these states form the Anglosphere, and are among Britain's closest allies.[3][4] British colonies and dominions influenced British culture in turn, particularly British cuisine.[5] Sport is an important part of British culture, and numerous sports originated in the country including football.
The UK has been described as a "cultural superpower",[6][7] and London has been described as a world cultural capital.[8][9] A global opinion poll for the BBC saw the UK ranked the third most positively viewed nation in the world (behind Germany and Canada) in 2013 and 2014.[10][11]

Read the following excerpt from the ending of Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin in the Sun:
WALTER (A beat. The tension hangs; then WALTER steps back from it) Yeah. Well — what I mean is that we come from people who had a lot of pride. I mean — we are very proud people. And that's my sister over there and she's going to be a doctor — and we are very proud —
LINDNER Well — I am sure that is very nice, but —
WALTER What I am telling you is that we called you over here to tell you that we are very proud and that this — (Signaling to TRAVIS) Travis, come here. (TRAVIS crosses and WALTER draws him before him facing the man) This is my son, and he makes the sixth generation our family in this country. And we have all thought about your offer —
LINDNER Well, good . . . good —
WALTER And we have decided to move into our house because my father — my father — he earned it for us brick by brick. (MAMA has her eyes closed and is rocking back and forth as though she were in church, with her head nodding the Amen yes) We don't want to make no trouble for nobody or fight no causes, and we will try to be good neighbors. And that's all we got to say about that. (He looks the man absolutely in the eyes) We don't want your money. (He turns and walks away)
LINDNER (Looking around at all of them) I take it then — that you have decided to occupy . . .
BENEATHA That's what the man said.
How does this excerpt contribute to the theme of A Raisin in the Sun? What aesthetic impact did the author intend it to have on the reader? Be sure to cite evidence from the reading to support your claim.
Answer: The theme of pride is a clear manifest in the ending part of Lorraine's excerpt.
We canidentify that the play is depicting characters who have little to identifywith.
We see that neighborhood representative shows up and offers to buy outtheirhouse.
The play depicts this decision as pride overmoney, and although money doeswin out for a little bit, the Walter family maintains itspride in the end.
We see how Walter blatant about this pride that he claims that the housewasearned through their late father's sweat.
The author intends to bring out the blatant idea of pride in the Younger familythrough thecharacter of Walter in the excerpt.
He portrays Walter as aggressively boastful to fit thisfamily trait.
Is this good
Answer:Among the two characters, Walter and Linder, the conversation conveys Pride and Discrimination.
The line "And that's my sister over there and she's going to be a doctor - and we are very proud" tells that the entire family of Walters are a very proud family. That is overlooking the fact that Walter Lee states that, “...we come from people who had a lot of pride. I mean — we are very proud people”. Also, Walter has quite a bit of self-importance, you can see from the way he interrupts Lindner on multiple occasions as he tries to convince the man that they will not be taking his offer.
The general plot of A Raisin in the Sun centers around the Younger family selfishly trying to live out their own individual dreams- with Mama wanting to purchase a nice house for her family. Lindner clearly does not wish for the family to move into the house, and he is trying to convince them to sell it back. At one point he tries to “appeal” to Mama, implying that she is “older and wiser” and should understand why they cannot move into their new home which is canonically located in a predominantly White area. He is not happy about their decision, leaving them with an ominous, “I sure hope you people know what you're getting into”.

over population is causing more problem than we can imagine
When we use the term “overpopulation,” we specifically mean a situation in which the Earth cannot regenerate the resources used by the world’s population each year. Experts say this has been the case every year since 1970, with each successive year becoming more and more damaging. To help temper this wildly unsustainable situation, we need to understand what’s contributing to overpopulation and overconsumption and how these trends are affecting everything from climate change to sociopolitical unrest.
Today the Earth is home to more than 7.8 billion people. By 2100 the population is on track to hit 10.8 billion, according to the United Nations — and that’s assuming steady fertility declines in many countries. Interestingly, if extra progress is made in women’s reproductive self-determination, and fertility falls more than the United Nations assumes is likely, the population in 2100 might be a relatively smaller 7.3 billion.
Conversations about overpopulation can quickly become controversial because they beg the question: Who exactly is the cause of the problem and what, if anything, should be done about it? Many population experts worry discussions around overpopulation will be abused by small-minded people to suggest some are the “right people” to be on the planet (like themselves), and some people are “the wrong people” (usually people in poverty, people of color, foreigners, and so on—you get the drift). But there are no “right” or “wrong” people on the planet, and discussing the problems of global overpopulation can never be an excuse, or in any way provide a platform, for having that type of conversation.
