Select the correct answer. My mom is always repeating the same old joke: if your friends all jumped off a cliff, would you jump, too? Of course not. But I get what she means. She's talking about peer pressure. Teenagers like us live with it every day. Pretty much every kid wants to be liked, to have friends, to be popular. No one wants people to think they aren't cool. While peer pressure is tough, giving in to it and getting in trouble is tougher. But teenagers are still learning to make good decisions. Like this one time my friend Harold wanted to take his dad's prized Jeep Grand Cherokee for a drive. Harold was 13, and he'd never driven a car before. But he figured he knew enough about operating a motor vehicle just by watching his parents drive. When his parents were out of town one weekend, Harold invited me and some of our friends over to his house so he could take us for a drive. I said, "Not me," because I knew it was a stupid thing to do. I told him and everybody else what I thought of the idea. (Driving isn't easy. It took my big brother weeks to get the hang of it.) Harold got mad and told me I was being a chicken. I said, "I'd rather be a chicken than get in an accident and have a broken leg." What is the topic of this passage? A. Harold B. being popular C. peer pressure D. learning to drive

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Peer Pressure

Explanation:

The answer is C because in the passage, his friend Harold is trying to use peer pressure to force him into driving when they shouldn't.

My loving people,



We have been persuaded by some that are careful of our safety, to take heed how we commit ourselves to armed multitudes, for fear of treachery; but I assure you I do not desire to live to distrust my faithful and loving people. Let tyrants fear, I have always so behaved myself that, under God, I have placed my chiefest strength and safeguard in the loyal hearts and good-will of my subjects; and therefore I am come amongst you, as you see, at this time, not for my recreation and disport, but being resolved, in the midst and heat of the battle, to live and die amongst you all; [1] to lay down for my God, and for my kingdom, and my people, my honour and my blood, even in the dust. [2] I know I have the body but of a weak and feeble woman; but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England too, and think foul scorn that Parma or Spain, or any prince of Europe, should dare to invade the borders of my realm; to which rather than any dishonour shall grow by me, [3] I myself will take up arms, I myself will be your general, judge, and rewarder of every one of your virtues in the field. I know already, for your forwardness you have deserved rewards and crowns; and We do assure you in the word of a prince, they shall be duly paid you. In the mean time, my lieutenant general shall be in my stead, than whom never prince commanded a more noble or worthy subject; not doubting but by your obedience to my general, by your concord in the camp, and your valour in the field, we shall shortly have a famous victory over those enemies [4] of my God, of my kingdom, and of my people.

FIRST TO ANSWER **CORRECTLY** GETS BRAINLIEST! Ginny the Dog: A Hero Among Heroes Heroes come in many shapes and forms, but they all do uncommon things in unusual situations. They stand out. We've all heard stories of hero dogs that save their owners. One dog saved his owner by fighting off an alligator. Another woke his sleeping family when a fire broke out in its home. Still others rescue injured or needy people in dangerous situations. One dog even managed to call 911 when his owner suffered a seizure. But one dog, named Ginny, performed heroic acts on a regular basis, not just once or twice in unusual situations. Because of her kindness, many lives were saved. Ginny the dog was adopted by her owner from an animal shelter in 1990. Within days of bringing her home, her owner discovered that Ginny seemed to be able to find cats in distress. On her daily walks, Ginny would often find abandoned, trapped, or endangered kittens or cats that needed rescuing. In one such episode, Ginny found a group of kittens trapped in a pipe. She managed to let her owner know, by scratching and barking at the pipe, that something needed her help. Because of Ginny, all the kittens were saved. Almost daily, Ginny would find cats that needed rescuing or, in some cases, a little love. Ginny's owner reported that when Ginny saw a cat on their walks, she would pull away from her leash and run after the cat. Instead of chasing cats like most dogs, Ginny would nuzzle and lick them, giving them comfort. Because of Ginny, her owner soon found he was caring for hundreds of wild neighborhood cats. In addition, Ginny pushed her owner to adopt more than 20 cats, most of whom had permanent injuries or special needs. "When we would go to the pound to drop off donations," her owner said, "Ginny always found the cat that was blind or deaf or hurt in some way. She would sit down in front of the cat's crate and not move until we brought it home." What makes a dog behave in such a kind way? Some believe Ginny had a very strong mothering instinct. But how could she tell when a cat was deaf? How did she know which cats needed love and attention? Regardless of how she did it, Ginny rescued hundreds of cats in her life and set an example we all can follow. Read this line from the text: Ginny pushed her owner to adopt more than 20 cats, most of whom had permanent injuries or special needs.
What is the main purpose of this sentence?
To create awareness of the number of homeless cats
To show how much Ginny influenced her owner
To explain the needs of most homeless cats
To make other hero dogs seem less compassionate than Ginny

Answers

Answer:

To show how much Ginny influenced her owner

Answers

Answer:

The KGB means "Komitet Gosudarstvennoy Bezopasnosti" which when translated to English means the Committee for State Security and they were the secret police that were charged with maintaining the security of the Soviet Union from 1954 until 1991 when the Soviet Union was dissolved. Part of the functions of the KGB was to be in charge of internal security, intelligence, and secret police functions.

The KGB was feared by Russians because not only were they a military service that functioned as foreign intelligence, counter-intelligence, they also guarded the border of the USSR, and were active in suppressing dissidents who had anti-communist ideals and promoted them. In fact, dissidents were treated almost as traitors.

Although there are no options provided, we can say that the organizational pattern Tomas is using for his speech is the Refutation Pattern.

This is the correct answer because in the Refutation Patter, the speaker search for the probable opposition arguments of its audience to prepare the right answers and arguments before its speech. This way he/she could have the best answers and the way to supporting when the speaker is faced with oppositions.

It explains to the reader that Elya was indeed
Stanley's great-great-grandfather.
It is a funny way of pointing out that Stanley and
Elya are clearly not living at the same time.
It is a silly way of letting the reader know that Elya
and Stanley are not really related to each other.

Answers

Answer:

It explains to the reader that Elya was indeed  Stanley's great-great-grandfather.

Explanation:

The story "Holes" by Louis Sachar tells the story of how a curse by a 'witch' led to the misfortune of the victim's family throughout his generations. Stanley Yelnats' grandfather Elya Yelnats did not keep his promise to the gypsy Madame Zeroni, which led to the unfortunate life of his great-great-grandson Stanley.

In chapter 7, the author includes the family history of Stanley and narrates how the 'misfortune' of being 'cursed' by the gypsy follows the Yelnats family. He included the line "He didn't know he was Stanley's great-great-grandfather" to make the point clear that Elya was indeed his great-great-grandfather who was a "no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather".

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

Answer:

It explains to the reader that Elya was indeed  Stanley's great-great-grandfather.

state three differences between indoor and outdoor activities​

Answers

Answer:

Indoor activities are carried out inside a space. They are limited to the conditions of the place where they are held, to the number of people participating in the activities, among other factors.

Whilst Outdoor activities are carried out in an outdoor space. It can be a green space on a property or in contact with nature.

Findings showed that children who spent more time involved in exercise outdoors decreased their risk for obesity and other weight-related health issues,  children who spent more time outdoors were more likely to be physically active when compared to those who spent more time indoors.

During the time spent in indoor games, kids usually face several situations and challenges which help them in developing vital skills. For example, interacting with others can help them develop and improve their imagination,  also help them learn new things from one another.

Answer:

Three differences are:

Indoor activities:

one: They are performed in room, hall or inside the house or building.

three: Examples: interior decoration, goods managment, cooking and many more

Outdoor activities:
