Answer:
Those who sacrifice for others are great people.
Explanation:
This question refers to the following paragraph from The Gift of the Magi, a story written by O. Henry:
And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest.
This story tells about Della and Jim, a young and poor married couple. On Christmas Eve, they buy each other gifts despite having very little money. Della sells her hair to buy a platinum pocket watch chain for Jim, and Jim sells his pocket watch to buy a set of ornamental combs for Della. Despite receiving gifts they cannot use, Jim and Della realize how much they are willing to sacrifice for each other and how priceless their love really is.
This is what the given paragraph tells us - that those who sacrifice for each other are great people. It doesn't matter that they don't have much money - Jim and Della love each other and that's all that matters. There is nothing foolish about that.
Answer:
it c those who sacrifice for others are great people.

Explanation:
Colin has £25. Dan takes £yy. How much is left?
Answer:
why does dan take colins money
Explanation:
The amount of money that is left is £25 - £y when Colin has £25 and Dan takes £y.
What is the Subtraction operation?Subtraction is a mathematical operation that deducts the right-hand operand from the left-hand operand.
for example 4 -2 = 2
We have been given that Colin has £25. Dan takes £y
We have to determine the amount of money that is left
As per the given question, the required solution would be as:
If Colin has £25 and Dan takes £y, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £y.
This is because £25 is the original amount of money that Colin has, and £y is the amount that is taken away. When you subtract £y from £25, you are left with the remaining amount of money.
For example, if Dan takes £10, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £10 = £15. If Dan takes £5, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £5 = £20. And so on.

D.
by explicitly listing other ways of raising money
plz help i'll choose brainliest
Answer:
D. by explicitly listing other ways of raising money
Explanation:
plato folks
Tricia could strengthen her refutation by explicitly listing other ways to raise money, as shown in option D.
We can arrive at this answer because:
A refutation is an argument that is contrary to another argument that was presented earlier.In this case, the refutation shows that the previous argument is incorrect, or does not present relevant information.For a refutation to be effective, the evidence must be presented that the information in the refutation is correct.In this case, we can affirm that Tricia's refutation would be more efficient and stronger if there was evidence to prove her argument.
This evidence could be presented if she explicitly listed how the city could raise money.

In a seesaw, the distance between the effort and the fulcrum is 10m, and the distance between the fulcrum and the load is 5m. What is the velocity ratio of the seesaw?
Answer:
2

Write a compare-and-contrast analysis to compare the way two different texts present similar ideas.
Answer:
Both "The code book" and "The dark game" both display codebreaking but are different in their tone, style and language. And example of this is "The code book" is written with a technical language while "The dark game" is written with a more simpler style. Both "The code book" & "The dark game" stories explain the importance of codes and codebreakers historically. Another difference is that "The dark game" could fall into the narrative category while, "The code book" is leaning more into the formal style of writing. Also saying that the author Paul Janeckzo shares the historical event in a story telling style.

Passage #1 – Chemical and Physical Changes
All matter, all things can be changed in two ways: chemically and physically. Both chemical and physical changes affect the state of matter. Physical changes are those that do not change the make-up or identity of the matter. For example, clay will bend or flatten if squeezed, but it will still be clay. Changing the shape of clay is a physical change, and does not change the matter’s identity. Chemical changes turn the matter into a new kind of matter with different properties. For example, when paper is burnt, it becomes ash and will never be paper again. The difference between them is that physical changes are temporary or only last for a little while, and chemical changes are permanent, which means they last forever. Physical and chemical changes both affect the state of matter.
Passage #2 – The Best PB & J Ever
When I got home from school after a long boring day, I took out the peanut butter, jelly, and bread. After taking the lid off of the jars, I spread the peanut butter on one side of the bread and the jelly on the other, and then I put the two pieces of bread together. After that, I enjoyed it while watching “Cops” on the TV. I swear, that was the best peanut butter and jelly sandwich I ever ate.
Passage #3 – Bobby Fischer
Robert James Fischer was born in Chicago but unlocked the secrets of chess in a Brooklyn apartment right above a candy store. At the age of six he taught himself to play by following the instruction booklet that came with his chess board. After spending much of his childhood in chess clubs, Fischer said that, “One day, I just got good.” That may be a bit of an understatement. At the age of 13 he won the U.S. Junior Chess Championship, becoming the youngest Junior Champion ever. At the age of 14 he won the U.S. Championship and became the youngest U.S. Champion in history. Fischer would go on to become the World Champion of chess, but he would also grow to become his own worst enemy. Instead of defending the title, he forfeited it to the next challenger without even making a move, and the rise of a chess superstar ended with a fizzle.
Passage #4 – Save the Tigers
Dr. Miller doesn’t want the tigers to vanish. These majestic beasts are disappearing at an alarming rate. Dr. Miller thinks that we should write to our congress people. If we let them know that we demand the preservation of this species, maybe we can make a difference. Dr. Miller also thinks that we should donate to Save the Tigers. Our donations will help to support and empower those who are fighting the hardest to preserve the tigers. We owe it to our grandchildren to do something.
Passage #5 – The Great Recession
Many people are confused about why our economy went to shambles in 2008. The crisis was actually the result of a combination of many complex factors. First, easy credit conditions allowed people who were high-risk or unworthy of credit to borrow, and even people who had no income were eligible for large loans. Second, banks would bundle these toxic loans and sell them as packages on the financial market. Third, large insurance firms backed these packages, misrepresenting these high-risk loans as safe investments. Fourth, because of the ease of acquiring credit and the rapid growth in the housing market, people were buying two or three houses, intending to sell them for more than they paid. All of these factors created bubbles of speculation. These bubbles burst, sending the whole market into a downward spiral, causing employers to lose capital and lay off employees. Consumer spending then plummeted and most businesses suffered. The economy is like a big boat, and once it gets moving quickly in the wrong direction, it’s hard to turn it around.
Passage #6 – Screen Protector
Before applying the screen protector, clean the surface of your phone’s screen with a soft cloth. Once the surface of your screen is clean, remove the paper backing on the screen protector. Evenly apply the sticky side of the screen protector to your phone’s screen. Smooth out any air bubble trapped on between the protector and the phone screen. Enjoy the added protection.

Where to put the commas?
Answer:
The stars, and the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.
Explanation:
The literary device in which the same conjunction is repeated multiple times is called the polysyndeton. The conjunction most often used like this is and.
This is an unconventional use of conjunctions. It would be more natural to write the given sentence like this:
The stars, the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.Since this use is not conventional, there are no strict rules regarding punctuation. In literature, there are versions with and without the commas before the conjunctions. If you need to put the commas somewhere, you'd put one before each conjunction. The given sentence would look like this:
The stars, and the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.Which of the following is an example of personification?
