The book prompted the federal government to review it's policy on pesticide use, and the use of DDT was banned. Choose the best revision, if one is needed. A) NO CHANGE B) They C) Them D) Its

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: D - Its

Explanation: The sentence says "review it's policy." However, "it's" with and apostrophe always means its a contraction (it is) so this sentence is not grammatically correct. Replacing "it's" with "its" (the possessive form meaning "it" owns the "policy") would correct the error.

I need to write a well-structured paragraph to evaluate the effectiveness of an allegory about the lottery by Shirley jackson

Answers

Machiavelli claims that a leader must find a balance between a temperate and a cruel attitude to be successful. He makes a very effective argument. First, he uses deductive reasoning by stating a conclusion that he uses to prove his point. He says that if a leader is not cruel, his subjects will rebel and no one will obey the law. Second, his evidence is compelling. Machiavelli uses historical examples to support his ideas, which are clear and interesting to read. Finally, he uses sophisticated diction, creating a serious tone that provides a sense of authority. His reasoning, evidence, and diction all work together to support his claim, making his argument both horrifying and effective.

Felix is conducting research about the impact of Muhammad Ali on the intersection of social justice and sports. His sources to support his claim that Ali’s use of his sports platform to speak out for social justice had a positive and powerful effect. Felix has collected 15 sources. Based on his notes, all the sources explore and support athletes who use their platforms to highlight social injustice, speak positively of Ali’s social justice work, and reveal the positives of using sports to raise awareness. What type of bias is Felix demonstrating? Explain your reasoning in a few sentences.

Answers

Answer: Confirmation bias

Explanation:

If all the sources Felix has collected support his claim, it means that he has ignored any accounts that might contradict his claim.

Confirmation bias refers to the inclination to only consider the information that supports the claim one wants to defend while avoiding the information that could invalidate it.

To ensure his research is not biased, Felix should acknowledge sources that contradict his claim.

Answer:

confirmation bias

Explanation:

Felix is demonstrating confirmation bias. Confirmation bias is when an author references sources that confirm pre-existing views and beliefs. Felix believes that there is a place for social justice in sports, as demonstrated by Muhammad Ali. He chooses to present only sources that support this belief. This choice can negatively impact his research paper as he does not present and refute alternate viewpoints, which would have added to his credibility on the subject. Instead, his credibility is weakened by only presenting biased information supported by one-sided sources.

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

D. Tiffany should participate more in class: She has some great ideas that would benefit other students.

Explanation:

Answer:

The sentence that correctly shows where a colon is needed in the sentence is the following one: Tyffany should participate more in class: She has some great ideas that would benefit other students (D).

Explanation:

A colon means that is to say. The fact is that a colon or a semicolon may be used between independent clauses when the second sentence illustrates, explains or expands on the first sentence.  In this case, the second sentence explains why Tyfanny should participate more in class.

D. The second sentence (She has...) explains the first sentence (Tiffany should...). So the colon should be between the first and second sentence.

Answers

That animals will soon be superior. Superior than humans.

The animals will find more things in the trash is the prediction does this passage best support. Hence, option D is correct.

What is prediction?

Any forecast, not just one regarding the weather, is a prediction. Pre denotes "before" and diction has to do with speaking. A forecast is thus a proclamation about the future. It's a guess, occasionally supported by data or proof, but not always. A fortune teller uses a crystal ball to make a forecast.

a prediction of what you believe the future will hold: Please don't expect me to predict anything about the meeting tomorrow. Nobody paid any heed to her warning that the world will end in November.

BEFORE the High and Far-Off Times, O my Best Beloved, came the Time of the Very Beginnings; and that was in the days when the Eldest Magician was getting Things ready. First he got the Earth ready; then he got the Sea ready; and then he told all the Animals that they could come out and play. And the Animals said, “O Eldest Magician, what shall we play at?” and he said, “I will show you.” He took the Elephant—All-the-Elephant-there-was—and said, “Play at being an Elephant,” and All-the-Elephant-there-was played. He took the Beaver—All-the-Beaver-there-was—and said, “Play at being a Beaver,” and All-the Beaver-there-was played. He took the Cow—All-the-Cow-there-was—and said, “Play at being a Cow,” and All-the-Cow-there-was played. He took the Turtle—All-the-Turtle-there-was—and said, “Play at being a Turtle,” and All-the-Turtle-there-was played. One by one he took all the beasts and birds and fishes and told them what to play at.
