Read this excerpt from "Hope, Despair, and Memory" by Elie Wiesel and answer the question.

The survivors wanted to communicate everything to the living: the victim’s solitude and sorrow, the tears of mothers driven to madness, the prayers of the doomed beneath a fiery sky. They needed to tell of the child who, in hiding with his mother, asked softly, very softly, "Can I cry now?" They needed to tell of the sick beggar who, in a sealed cattle-car, began to sing as an offering to his companions. And of the little girl who, hugging her grandmother, whispered: "Don’t be afraid, don’t be sorry to die … I’m not."

What historical context does Wiesel convey using the allusion of a fiery sky?

He compares the sky to hell.
the fires from air raids during World War II
the cremation of Jews in the concentration camps
the outbreak of forest fires from bombs in World War II

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The cremation of Jews in the concentration camps.

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel's "Hope, Despair, and Memory" is his Nobel Prize lecture where he recounts his personal experiences during the Holocaust. In his lecture, he tells what he had witnessed during the Nazi regime and how the things that he saw, the memories must serve as a reminder to humans to not repeat the horrendous acts.

In the given excerpt from the text, Wiesel talks of "the survivors" and the memories that they remember. Talking of the "victims", he recounts the suffering of these people. And through his description, we can know that he is talking about the concentration camps and how people, irrespective of age and gender, are burned in the chambers.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Answers

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read Story-Time by Edgar Guest

According to this poem, stories A. give children terrible nightmares if told before bedtime. B. transform fathers into wonderful heroes for their children. C. help people cope with the problems that they experience. D. let people have adventures from the comfort of home

Answer: D. let people have adventures from the comfort of home.

Explanation:

Guest´s poem describes a father telling stories to the kids before bedtime. That nightly ritual seems to happen every day, and allows them to go on adventures with pirates, "Or fairies hiding in the glen," and many other fictional scenes.

In those adventures, they can be as they wish, because "No longer are they youngsters small," and the father is not old.

He describes seemingly dangerous situations, such as great battles, that might seem dangerous but are harmless because they always end well and just in time for bed.

why do you think Ceaser refused the crown three times? What was his motive?​

Answers

Answer:

There are differing responses to this question, depending on which character provides the answer. Casca explains to Brutus and Cassius that, in the arena, Caesar refused the crown every time Antony offered it because each time he refused, the crowd responded uproariously. Casca observes that “he would fain have had it,” implying that Caesar’s refusal was, essentially, theater and that he was simply pandering to the crowd. On the other hand, Antony uses the same incident to reveal that Caesar refused the crown because he was not ambitious or power-hungry. However, it’s more likely that Caesar’s motivations were as Casca implies: Caesar theatrically refused the crown to further secure the hearts and minds of the people, and he fully intended to accept the crown when the senate officially offered it to him.

Read the passage describing the famine that struck Ireland in 1740 to 1741.

In 1740–1741 extremely cold temperatures struck vast areas of pre-industrial Europe, causing harvest failures that led to increased prices for staple food, famine, disease, excess mortality and migration. . . . Ireland was probably more vulnerable than most other European countries. Already in the first half of the eighteenth century, Irish food production was based heavily on potatoes and oats – a pattern of cultivation providing little resilience against the risk of harvest failure after an extremely cold winter. . . . Ireland was ill-prepared to deal with the consequences of harvest failure . . .

I NEED AN ARGUMENTATIVE LETTER WITH EVIDENCE AGAINST SCHOOL DRESS CODE(not uniforms) WILL GIVE BRAINIEST

Answers

Answer:

this will not be as good but feel free to modify (i wrote this in like 10 minutes)

Explanation:

   Plenty of schools around the world have dress codes. Although dress codes will guide students to wear appropriate clothing, dress codes can also be a pain to students in the mornings.

    Many scholars wear inappropriate clothing to schools. Dress codes have been made to prevent this from happening. Although dress codes have their own perks of not having students wear inappropriate clothing, they can make students' mornings more uncomfortable. Waking up early in the mornings can be difficult for some, now imagine that with having to measure out clothing. Students who can't afford to clothe may need to just get dress coded. There are many solutions to avoid this problem in both ways.

      Uniforms have been going around schools. Although they may not satisfy every student's style, they do bring one solution to the struggles of mornings. Some teachers may find this a little bit easier to spot the trouble makers as well. They can easily spot the students not wearing the uniforms and dress code them, rather than trying to measure everything by eye.

      Dress codes can have their own perks of letting the students choose their own clothing with a bit of a guideline. Having to struggle in the morning to find clothes that fit the dress code standards can take up time and result in being late for school. Uniforms are one of many solutions to this problem. Although they do not give students much of a choice, they can solve the issue with both the students and teachers.

Answers

The answer for this problem would be B. Why? Well The government was not afraid of sending people to the moon because we were the first ones to go there. Second America CAN NOT just place a flag on the moon and call it americas territory, that’s not how it works. Third, NASA is funded by the government so therefore they did not run out of money because the only way they’d run out of money is if the government ran out. So therefore B is the most logical answer because it is A LOT cheaper to use satellites instead of rockets. Hope this helps!

Answer:

I would say D.

Explanation:

This is because the excerpt talks about how great the NASA missions were, until the U.S Government stopped funding them. The article provides no evidence that the Government was afraid, and satellites also cost quite a lot to get into space. As for the third statement, that is only one piece of the entire excerpt. So using the process of elimination, we can determine that the answer is the last one.

Another thing I would do is give them a few mental health days a month where we would just relax, and maybe watch movie. I would do this because I don’t want anyone to get very sad because of my class.

The third thing I would do is make sure everyone didn’t have a any questions. I would do this because I wouldn’t want to ever see anyone of my students struggle, so I would make sure to help them as much as I can.

The last thing I would do is check ins with each one of my students, to make sure no one is struggling or falling behind. I would do this because I think as a teacher instead of always assigning piles of work I should focus on the students at least 60% of the time. All in all, this is what I would do as a teacher if I had virtual learning the best it could be.
