Answers

Answer:

The letter C is the right answer.

Explanation:

When reading the paragraph shown in the question above, we can see that the narrator is happy to have won the race, but this is not the biggest reason for his pride. What is most proud of this narrator is the fact that the desire to win the race, made him strive during a rigid training that allowed him to achieve his goals. This effort and completion of training is what makes the narrator very proud of himself and this moment, when he wins the race, is what determines that. In this case, we can see that the letter C is the correct answer option, as it coherently complements the paragraph and shows that this paragraph provides support for the body of the story, as it supports part of the training.

Why did the officers ask Kai what the chairs in his home looked like?

B
They thought it was a good question for a 12-year-old.

C
They wanted to see if Kai was really a skilled furniture maker.

D
They wanted to make sure Kai's answers matched his father's.

Answers

Answer:

D - They wanted to make sure Kai's answer matches his father's

Explanation:

This is simple deduction, none of the answers really have anything to do with Kai. But, if someone passed before him (his father) and they asked Kai the same questions they asked his father, they can cross examine and deduce whether Kai is really his son or not (because we find out in the text that people would often claim others as being their children even though they weren't, to help each other)

Therefore, D

The correct answer is D) They wanted to make sure Kai's answers matched his father's.

Gladys has demonstrated civility which requires:

B empathy
c ethics.
D a high IQ

Answers

Answer:

C. ethics.

Explanation:

Civility is a characteristic that requires the individual to have a strong ethical sense. In this case, we can see that Gladys has ethics in her actions to help Andrew.

This is because ethics is the term that determines a person's social behavior based on what he believes to be right or wrong. For Gladys, helping people is the right thing to be done within the social environment, so it acts in an ethical manner. In addition, it refers to the ability of an individual to live within the established norms for the maintenance of social interaction, that is, civility is part of ethics.
