Read the paragraph. Then answer the question that follows.

Perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but you were out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chili. This is similar to what happens in a community. One person has to give up a right for the good of the group. Sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. A good example is a public protest. People have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. However, a protest can disrupt traffic or other normal activities. A city must provide extra police protection to keep people safe. Therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest. Government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people.

Which statement best describes the purpose of the first sentence in this paragraph?

The writer just wants to capture the reader's attention by mentioning foods that are popular with teens.
The writer is introducing an idea by comparing it to a situation most people would understand or experience.
The writer explains that just because you are in a family or community doesn't mean you can control the group.
The writer is trying to help you understand that voting is a long, complex process that affects many other people.

Answer 1

Answer:

no any question given. ?????

Answer 2
The writer is introducing an idea by comparing it to a situation most people would understand or experience.



- it’s the second answer only because the writer is INTRODUCING the idea while using a common conflict. But in the 1st answer choice the writer was trying to hook the reader but the answer doesn’t really describe the 1st sentence as well.

The 3rd and 4th has nothing to do with the 1st sentence of the passage, therefore u can mark them out

define tense with 2 example.

Answers

Explanation:

Tense is the form of a verb that shows when something happened, is happening or is going to happen.[1] There are three main tenses:

Present tense: things that are true when the words are spoken or written.

Example: She goes to school. In this sentence, goes shows that it is a present tense. It suggests that she regularly goes to school.

Example: She is going to school. This says she is now going to school.

Past tense: things that were true before the words were spoken or written.

Example: She went to school. In this sentence, went shows that it is a past tense.

Future tense: things that will be true after the words are spoken or written.

Example: She will go to school. In this sentence, will shows that it is a future tense.

Tense can be shown by changing the spelling of a verb. For example, be can become am, is, and are in present tense, and was and were in past tense. In English, future tense is shown by adding will before the verb. For example, be becomes will be in future tense.

Answer:

The word tense defines time. Basically, anything that we do at a particular time is called a tense.

Explanation:

Since. Therefore . Before
Because. So.

Read this excerpt from The Great Fire.

Schaffer's first signal went out at 9:30. Several minutes later, Schaffer realized his mistake and ordered Box 319 struck. This was still seven blocks away from the O'Learys', but close enough that firefighters could see the flames and alter their course. Unfortunately, Schaffer's young assistant, William J. Brown, stubbornly refused to strike Box 319, saying he was afraid it would confuse the situation. Brown was so stubborn about his decision that even after the fire he was able to write arrogantly in a letter that "I am still standing the watch that burned Chicago."

These errors had two fatal consequences. The most obvious was that a number of engines and dozens of firefighters were sent on a wild-goose chase and did not get to the fire for many minutes. More critical is that it kept fire companies located near De Koven Street in their stations. Several had seen the eerie, dancing glow beyond the rooftops near them and, even without official notice from Schaffer, prepared to respond. When they heard Box 342 rung, however, they assumed the fire was out of their territory and unhitched the horses. Only two fire companies were not fooled by the misleading alarm.

How does the structure of this excerpt illustrate the central idea that a series of individual mistakes contributed to the spread of the blaze?

A. by comparing and contrasting different people’s decisions and abilities
B. by comparing and contrasting the most effective firefighting techniques
C. by clearly explaining the reasons for the misleading alarm and its impact
D. by clearly explaining the reasons the fire started and the way it was put out

I sit at my desk listening to thunder growl outside my window. Flashes of light burst through the darkness, and wind races past my window. The thrilling combination of sight and sound conjures up visions of dragons roaring proudly, breathing fire, and soaring across the midnight sky. Dragons first fascinated me when I was a little girl. They have followed me ever since. The magnificent creatures appeared in storybooks I read in the library, paintings I saw in museums, movies I watched in the theater, and the dreams I had in my sleep. By the time I was thirteen, one question consumed me. I wanted to know if dragons ever existed, so I set out on a quest for facts.


2


As I started my research, I discovered many skeptics. Scientists presented evidence to show why dragons could not—and did not—exist. They explained that it would be impossible for dragons to fly because they would be too big. They laughed at the idea of dragons breathing fire. They pointed out that no other animal has ever done this. They said that if dragons had lived, someone would have found remains somewhere in the world. No bones about it, there were plenty of logical explanations. It would have been easy for me to accept that the only place dragons ever existed was in the imaginations of those who believed.


3


I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother. She always told me that "people who believe that science is the answer to everything are missing out on everything else." With her words in mind, I searched some more. There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed.


4


With renewed hope that there was some truth to the legends, I looked for new research. I found that some experts disagreed with popular arguments against dragons. They suggested that a dragon could have four stomachs like a cow. If it created stomach gases like birds, it might create enough to lift itself off the ground. This would give it the ability to fly. If it forced out air when diving toward the earth, it might release gases which could ignite into flame. When the animal died, the stomachs would release strong acids that would dissolve its dead body over time. Biologists backed up these ideas with sketches and models based on known animals. Not everyone agreed with these ideas, but many of the things we accept about dinosaurs and other extinct species started the same way.


5


I doubt we will ever truly know whether dragons existed. There may always be two sides to the fiery debate. Some will say the stories come from active imaginations. Some will believe with all their hearts that the legendary creatures roamed our ancient world. I don't know for certain which side to believe, but the sound and fury of a night like this makes me smile. It rekindles my childhood dreams and keeps the exciting possibility alive.



Which best states the main idea of the text?


(A) I have found no proof that dragons ever existed.


(B) I have found some proof that dragons may have existed.


(C) I have always wondered if dragons existed, and I hope they did.


(D) I have not been able to decide if dragons ever existed or not.

Do you believe that as society changes the definition being an American changes? Explain your view and give examples.

Answers

Yes, the definition of being an american changes, because the world is ever changing and we are finding out new things about our past, as well as our future. for starters, legally, you have to be here for 5 years before you are an american citizen, or be born on american soil. but, many people have different opinions on what, subjectively, “truly” makes you an american. for example, some believe that to be a true american, you must vote to change our country’s direction of where it’s headed in the future. others believe that you are not a true american if you are not native american. others may believe that you are not american if you were not born here. society’s views on what makes someone a “true” american is always changing, and it’s different for every person. (insert your view here).
Yes,as America changes Americans change themselves;thus the definition of “being an American” changes. For example year ago a “American family” was seen as a working father, a stay at home wife, and child/ren. Modern day versions of American family’s are very diverse. Women can be the bread winner, there are stay at home dads, and there are even same sex couples. As America’s society changes the definition of American changes with it
