A.) Read the beginning of Jason's argumentative speech on the use of Internet slang and answer the question.
The use of acronyms, or abbreviations, is not new. In fact, there are examples of the use of acronyms that date back to antiquity. Ancient scribes had a daunting enough task without having to write out every word. The Christian Church has inscribed the acronym INRI, which stands for the Latin Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum ("Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews") over the crucifix for centuries. American and European corporations discovered long ago that it is easier to remember three letters than it is to remember three names. During the twentieth century, there was an upsurge in the use of acronyms that corresponded with the introduction of highly technical vocabulary. The tendency to shorten has an established history and many of these abbreviations have even found their way into the dictionary. Today, the use of time-saving abbreviations provides the language of internet and other wireless communication. But should it? Unlike in the past, this shortening does not represent a natural and necessary progression of language change. Internet slang is a manifestation of two much more serious problems with modern society— intellectual laziness and too little time.
Which sentence would provide the best transition into the counterargument paragraph of this essay?
1- OMG! don't we have bigger problems as a society than taking a few short-cuts when it comes to communication?
2- Until recently, the use of acronyms could be justified in most contexts.
3- Many would argue that there is no harm in populating our communication with OMGs and LOLs given their widespread use.
4- Intellectual laziness is a treatable disease, while finding more time is much more challenging.
__________________________________________________________________
B.) Read this excerpt from Jason's persuasive speech and answer the question.
The main reason for using a slang unique to the Internet is to make communication easier.
Which revision would add supporting evidence to best strengthen Jason's claim?
1.) Add this sentence to the above excerpt: However, there is some debate about how internet slang influences everyday language.
2.) Add this sentnece to the above excerpt: Studies suggest that saving a few keystrokes can both reduce stress and lead to more productivity.
3.) Add this sentence to the above excerpt: However, while Internet slang shortcuts save time for the writer, according to at least one study they take two times as long for the reader to understand.
4.) Add this sentence to the above excerpt: Only strict grammarians object, arguing that Internet slang is a degradation of standard usage.
Answer:
Which sentence would provide the best transition into the counterargument paragraph of this essay?
3. Many would argue that there is no harm in populating our communication with OMGs and LOLs given their widespread use.
Which revision would add supporting evidence to best strengthen Jason's claim?
2. Add this sentence to the above excerpt: Studies suggest that saving a few keystrokes can both reduce stress and lead to more productivity.
Explanation:
For the first question, we must first understand what Jason's claim is. That can be found at the end of his introductory paragraph:
"Internet slang is a manifestation of two more serious problems with modern society - intellectual laziness and too little time."
Now, we must find a sentence to introduce a counterargument. A counterargument is an idea that opposes the argument. The argument claims that internet slang usage is a problem. The counterargument must state the contrary. The sentence that does that is number 3: "Many would argue that there is no harm in populating our communication with OMGs and LOLs given their widespread use." This sentence is basically stating that internet slang is not a problem.
For the second question, we need to choose the option the adds supporting evidence to the excerpt. In other words, we choose the option that agrees with and complements the excerpt. The excerpt states that slang makes communication easier. The only option that agrees with that is number 2. All the other options offer information or present ideas that go against that opinion. Sentence 2, however, explains that slang makes communication less stressful.

Nouns are words that identifies a person, place or thing. There are also pronouns like he, they and we but I don't know if you also want those as they can also be classified as nouns. Adjectives are words that describe a noun. It tells you how it's shape or how it looks. They're also adverbs but those describe a verb. A verb is a word that tells you what the noun does. For a sentence to be a complete sentence it has to have a verb and a noun. Also, even tough you said nouns I am not sure if you want the subject noun or not so I put all them. The complete subjects are the first ones.

He gave me more hours, so I was making more money, but I didn’t yet have the responsibility of a “real” job. I’d been an English major and wanted to be a writer, though I had no idea what kind of writer. I’d taken the summer to think about things and prepare for a fall job search.

Argument essay
Topic is * Is online education effective?
Help please help
Answer:
Online learning is giving people new choices and newfound flexibility with their personal learning and development. Whereas before, formal academic qualifications could only be gained by participating in a full time course on site, the internet has allowed institutions to expand their reach and offer recognized courses on a contact-partial, or totally virtual, basis.
There is another argument that is very difficult to dispel, and that is the response of different types of students to the online learning paradigm. Evidence shows that there are certain groups of students that benefit from college distance learning much more than other groups. In essence, students must be highly motivated and highly disciplined if they are to learn effectively in their own private environment.

Which of the following is the most precise claim to introduce the passage?
James Naismith: Inventor of Basketball
Naismith's
upbringing was modest; he grew up in Canada as an orphan living with an aunt and uncle. He had many responsibilities as a child and
didn't do well in school, but he was always a leader in outdoor and athletic activities. The leadership Naismith demonstrated among his
childhood peers continued as he grew into adulthood.
Naismith came to the United States to teach at Springfield College in Massachusetts. While he was teaching there, the head of the
physical education department challenged him to dream up a game that could keep a class of rowdy young men active and engaged
throughout the cold winter months. Naismith had to think of something that would encourage everyone to play and keep them active
without being too rough with each other.

Answer:
Though James Naismith struggled with academics, his leadership skills helped him invest one of the greatest sports: basketball.

Which two sentences in this excerpt from Ernest Shackleton south the author reflecting on memories of his experience rather than recounting factual information
Hi. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, and I will try to help you as best I can.
To answer this question, you will need the text it is related to. As stated in the question, you must present two sentences where the author is reflecting on the experiences he has had. In this case, you will need to find, within the text, the moments when the author shows thoughts about his experiences, where he presents what he learned and how these experiences were positive or negative for his life and how this contributed to the story that it's counting, that is, you shouldn't look for the experiences themselves, but how they impacted the author.
Passage: The apathy which seemed to take possession of some of the men at the frustration of their hopes was soon dispelled. Parties were sent out daily in different directions to look for seals and penguins. We had left, other than reserve sledging rations, about 110 lbs. of pemmican, including the dog-pemmican, and 300 lbs. of flour. In addition there was a little tea, sugar, dried vegetables, and suet. I sent Hurley and Macklin to Ocean Camp to bring back the food that we had had to leave there. They returned with quite a good load, including 130 lbs. of dry milk, about 50 lbs. each of dog-pemmican and jam, and a few tins of potted meats. When they were about a mile and a half away their voices were quite audible to us at Ocean Camp, so still was the air.
We were, of course, very short of the farinaceous element in our diet. The flour would last ten weeks. After that our sledging rations would last us less than three months. Our meals had to consist mainly of seal and penguin; and though this was valuable as an anti-scorbutic, so much so that not a single case of scurvy occurred amongst the party, yet it was a badly adjusted diet, and we felt rather weak and enervated in consequence.

Post their name here and the notes of what they shared. Next, reflect on what they said, and write out one argument that supports what they said and one argument that opposes what they said. Take another few moments to reflect on both arguments. Remember that they only want the best for you. Keep in mind that it's tough for everyone to hear criticism. Don't forget that you have the power to overcome any circumstance. Now, focus on just one thing that you've learned during this exercise, and write it below.
Answer:
Dear Josue,
Procrastination is one of the most common causes of failing to accomplish goals. This is a thing we need to give up. When you are having your dreams and goals, remember that the best to take action is now. The present moment must be cherished and taken as your last chance to give your best.
So, what can be the best solution to overcome procrastination? This by doing something immediately, instead of making excuses and letting the time pass without doing anything. Keep yourself busy working today to be moving forward to your goals and closer to your success.
It is essential to accept that there are things that do not go by how they are planned. Everything can't always go perfectly well. There can be errors, and there can be shortcomings.
But from there, there can be lessons, and there can be improvements. When we learn how to be grateful for what we have and appreciate all our efforts to accomplish something, that's when abundance and happiness can be achieved.
I know you procrastinate because you are afraid of failure. Of not turning in the "best" assignment. I understand you entirely. Just know that no process is linear. Give your responsibilities a set time to complete them and continue on with the next when you have reached the time limit. Know that you are an amazing student and that all that matters is dedication, not "perfection". You've got this! I know you are capable of greatness.

The excerpt is taken from Patrick Henry's famous "Give me liberty or give me death" speech to the Second Virginia Convention in 1775. Which sentence suggests that Patrick Henry believed British rule in the American colonies was tyrannical?
No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the House. But different men often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those gentlemen if, entertaining as I do, opinions of a character very opposite to theirs, I shall speak forth my sentiments freely, and without reserve. This is no time for ceremony. {The question before the House is one of awful moment to this country.} {For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery;} and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfil the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. {Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offence, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country}, and of an act of disloyalty toward the majesty of heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.
Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. {We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts.} Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? {For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.}
Answer:
"We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts."

Which excerpts from Queen Elizabeth's Response to Parliament's Request That She Marry rely on a rhetorical appeal to logos to persuade her audience that even if she produced an heir it would not guarantee England's prosperity or safety? Select two options.
A. I give you all my hearty thanks for the good zeal and loving care you seem to have.
B. You may well assure yourselves, my meaning is not to determine any thing.
C. I always continued in this determination, although my youth and words may seem to some hardly to agree together, yet is it most true.
D. The realm shall not remain destitute of any heir that may be a fit governour, and peradventure more beneficial to the realm.
E. For though I be never so careful of your well-doing, and mind ever so to be, yet may my issue grow out of kind, and become perhaps ungracious.
please answer if you confirmed actually got it correct on test.
Answer:D. The realm shall not remain destitiute of any heir that may be a fit governour, and peradventure more beneficial to the realm.
E. For though I be never so careful of your well doing and mind ever so be, yet may my issue grow out of kind and perhaps become ungracious.
Explanation:
From the selected options, while Queen Elizabeth is mindful of the need for a royal heir, she states any offer spring by her will not prevent calamities upon England.
The two excerpts from Queen Elizabeth's Response to Parliament's Request are in options D & E. Hence, Options (D) & (E) are correct.
Queen Elizabeth asserts that the realm will not be left without a suitable heir who can govern and potentially benefit the country.
By emphasizing the availability of capable successors, she implies that the mere act of producing an heir does not guarantee England's prosperity or safety.
This logical reasoning challenges the assumption that her marriage and producing an heir are necessary for the welfare of the realm.
Queen Elizabeth employs logos by stating that even if she is diligently concerned about the well-being of her people and intends to continue doing so, there is a possibility that her issue (offspring) could deviate from expected behavior or become ungracious.
Thus, this line of reasoning suggests that simply having an heir does not guarantee the desired outcome for England's future.

A person's character can be used to describe their personality. As an illustration, if someone is described as having a peculiar character, they actually mean this. He is such a wonderful character because of his courage and tenacity.
Our character makes us who we are. Therefore, we frequently assess someone's character when passing judgment on them. When Kaitlin arrived at Patrick's apartment, she looked around and noticed a number of drink cans that were only halfway full.
