Answer:
Gale Eaton makes the claim that some but not all of the stories about Marco Polo’s journeys may be false due to changes made by copiers and translators. I agree with Eaton’s perspective. Eaton noted that Polo shared his stories with another man while imprisoned in Genoa. That fellow prisoner was intent on making Polo’s stories a best seller. Someone interested in fame would embellish events or leave out certain details to ensure the book was marketable and would make people keep buying and reading it. During this era, there was a race for discovery and a race to gain wealth. Copiers would want to feed that frenzy with embellishments. Eaton also noted that Polo’s stories were translated into many different languages. It’s possible for translators to leave out information or make changes to stories due to the nature of the varying languages. However, as Eaton suggests, just because some stories about Polo may be false or exaggerated doesn’t mean that all the stories are false. History suggests that some may be true.

Find all of the plural or possessive errors. Select each one and type it correctly. One of the most famous books' in children's literature is Little House in the Big Woods It is the first book in the successful Little House on the Prairie series
Answer:
Error: One of the most famous books' in children's literature is Little House in the Big Woods It is the first book in the successful Little House on the Prairie series
Correction: One of the most famous books in children's literature is Little House in the Big Woods. It is the first book in the successful Little House on the Prairie series.
Explanation:
We use 's after a singular noun and ' after a plural noun to show possession. The use of the possessive form of books (books') is incorrect because it would refer to something or a feature that the books have. "Book's" (the possessive form of "book") would also be incorrect, as we are not talking about something a book has. The correct sentence would use the word "books" (the plural form of "book").
Help! The Great Gatsby Journal Log:
QUOTE
“Sometimes they came and went without having met Gatsby at all, came for the party” (41).
“I never care what I do, so long as I have a good time” (43).
I just need a CONTEXT/ANALYSIS for this.
Answer:
1.This moment is important because it's almost like Gatsby had a certain interest in Nick. He was the only one who got an actual invitation to the partyso it definitely makes it seem like Gatsby knows who Nick is without ever meeting him before. A lot of people don’t even know who Gatsby is, they simply just go for the party and being able to say they went to a Gatsby party. Some were introduced but even then they still just kept going on with the party so maybe it could just be because Nick is his neighbor but there still seems to be something more to this situation.
Answer:
Quote 1 means that sometimes, there are those at the party that Gatsby hosts, who haven't even met Gatsby. They are at the party because they want to go to this no-invite fancy party that this rich guy is hosting. They just want to go out and they have no interest in finding out who the host actually is. They'd rather make up their own assumptions and get on with the dancing.
Quote 2 is said by Lucille, a party-goer. What she means is that she doesn't care what happens or what decisions she has to make as long as she is having fun. She just wants to forget the consequences to everything and have a free for all.

The street was deserted except for me…… complete your story of about 200 – 250 words.
Answer:
The car screamed to a halt, four men wearing masks jumped out and ran into the nearest building, I looked around. The street was deserted except for me. I just wanted to buy some ice cream, but It seemed that destiny had other plans.
I was lucky enough that none of the robbers saw me, so I ran backward till I reached the corner and turned sharply to the left. There I found a policeman. I desperately tried to tell him what I saw, but I was so scared and out of breath that the officer couldn't understand me. I was so desperate that I grabbed the police's hand and took him to the corner, where he could see the car in the middle of the street. There he finally understood what I was saying.
He quickly called for backups, more when he realized that the robbery was in a bank. In no less than 5 minutes, a lot of police cars arrived. They secluded the area, and negotiation with the robbers started.
Thankfully, they weren't a good thief and couldn't work well under pressure. With a few warmings from the police, they came out of the building and with empty hands.
Who could think that on my way to the ice cream parlor, I would become a hero?
Explanation:
A story always has three parts. First, we write the beginning where we introduce the characters, the plot, and the setting. Then we write the conflict. In other words, we narrate the problem that is taking place in the story. Finally, we tell how the problem was solved, giving an ending to the story.
We should use descriptive language that helps the reader imagine the scenes. Also, it helps the reader connect with the characters and be immersed in the story.

Is my PIQ response good or not? Do I need to make changes?
Answer:
love it! maybe you should add how important that subject is- mainly so it doesn't repeat itself.
Explanation:
Have you ever witnessed something amazing, shocking or surprising and found when describing the event that your story seems to change the more you tell it? Have you ever experienced a time when you couldn't really describe something you saw in a way that others could understand? If so, you may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials. New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things.
First, memory is vague. Imagine your room at home or a classroom you see every day. Most likely, you could describe the room very generally. You could name the color of the walls, the floors, the decorations. But the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. Memory tends to save a blurry image of what we have seen rather than specific details. So when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall when faced with several tall people. There are lots of different kinds of "tall."
Second, memory uses general knowledge to fill in gaps. Our brains reconstruct events and scenes when we remember something. To do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. For example, one day at a library you go to quite frequently, you witness an argument between a library patron and one of the librarians. Later, when telling a friend about the event, your brain may remember a familiar librarian behind the desk rather than the actual participant simply because it is recreating a familiar scene. In effect, your brain is combining memories to help you tell the story.
Third, your memory changes over time. It also changes the more you retell the story. Documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. Research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is. You may have noticed this yourself. The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add, or what your brain wants to add, to the account. You may also notice that you drop certain details from previous tellings of the story.
With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. Did you really break your mother's favorite vase when you were three? Was that really your father throwing rocks into the river with you when you were seven? The human brain may be quite remarkable indeed. When it comes to memory, however, we may want to start carrying video cameras if we want to record the true picture.
Which line from the text best explains why the author suggests we start carrying video cameras?
You may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable
The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add
With individual memories all jumbled up with each other
The human brain may be quite remarkable indeed

On the Internet, anyone can create a webpage and report the "news." You don't have to have a background in journalism or work for a reliable news organization. Many online reporters simply recycle information from other news outlets instead of doing their own research.
The hunt for reliable news sources is made even more challenging because some news outlets are heavily biased. They may share only one side of an argument and try to influence the opinions of their viewers.
What does all of this mean for you if you want to uncover the truth? It means it's on you to evaluate news sources carefully. And to think hard about how reliable they are.
