Think about Charles’s mother in the story. Write two character traits to describe her, and back up those character traits with evidence from the text.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She naturally assumes that the boy is responsible for the change in her son's behavior.

She is loyal to her son and as well the last person to believe the worst until it is too late.

Explanation:

Laurie's mother in the Shirley Jackson short story, "Charles," was undergoing a change in her mothering skills due to her son simultaneously changes from cute little boy to misbehaving young terror. Laurie's mother willingly believes everything he has to say even though she sees that he no longer pays her much attention and as well talks back to his father. After hearing stories about Laurie's new friend, Charles, and his antics at school, she naturally assumes that the boy is responsible for the change in her son's behavior. It is only after she learns at a PTA meeting that there is no Charles in Laurie's class that she realizes it is Laurie who has been causing trouble at school. Like most mothers, she is loyal to her son and as well the last person to believe the worst until it is too late.

Our region has experienced a record drought this year. The water level in the local reservoir has dropped by several feet. As a result, Councilman Garcia is proposing a water ban this summer. The ban would limit how often people can water their yards. There are several ways this ban will be effective.

To improve the argument that the ban will be effective, what would be the best fact to add?

a fact about Councilman Garcia
a fact about the history of the region
a fact about the impact of the drought
a fact about the creation of the reservoir

Answer:

To improve the argument that the ban will be effective,the best fact to addwould be:

a fact about the impact of the drought

Explanation:

Two reasons are backing this answer, in the first place to make aware people we need to provide arguments that are meaningful for the topic. Our topic is the droughts' impact because as a response to them Councilman Garcia proposed a strategy. Thus, we need to justify Councilman Garcia's proposal. And to let people know why they need it, we need to explain to them the impact of the drought. So they could accept it. In the second place, it is all about convincing them we have the correct point of view and we will only achieve that by providing evidence of it,

Read the excerpt from A Black Hole is NOT a Hole.

However, near a black hole, gases and dust and stars encounter its tug. Some things may be hurtling by so fast they won't get pulled into the black hole. Other things may not be as swift. They will be drawn in.

Closer and closer, the tugging force gets stronger and stronger. Close enough, the black hole no longer acts like a whirlpool.


With a whirlpool, there's always a fast-enough fish—or a fast-enough something—that moves so quickly it won't be pulled all the way into the center.

Not so with a black hole! Within a certain distance the black hole's power is so strong, nothing is fast enough to zip away.

What is being compared or contrasted in this excerpt?

A. A comparison between the power of a star and the power of a whirlpool is being made.
B. A contrast between the power of a star and the power of a whirlpool is being made.
C. A comparison between the power of a black hole and the power of a whirlpool is being made.
D. A contrast between the power of a black hole and the power of a whirlpool is being made.

What was the issue of genetically modified foods

Answers

Answer:

Most GMO plants produced and consumed in the US today are those that allow for resistance to a specific herbicide, like Monsanto’s Roundup. Roundup Ready soy, corn, and beets grow from seeds that have been genetically modified to grow even when glyphosate weed killer (Roundup’s scientific name) is applied to them.

While Roundup has not tested as toxic to humans and other mammals, the longer it has been on the market, the worse its effects on soil health and long-term plant fecundity appear. In addition, Roundup Ready plants may not allow necessary micronutrients to be absorbed by animals consuming them and may also play a part in the recent die-off of bees, WHICH IS BAD.

Read the excerpt from "Raymond's Run."

Then I hear Raymond yanking at the fence to call me and I wave to shush him, but he keeps rattling the fence like a gorilla in a cage like in them gorilla movies, but then like a dancer or something he starts climbing up nice and easy but very fast. And it occurs to me, watching how smoothly he climbs hand over hand and remembering how he looked running with his arms down to his side and with the wind pulling his mouth back and his teeth showing and all, it occurred to me that Raymond would make a very fine runner. Doesn't he always keep up with me on my trots? And he surely knows how to breathe in counts of seven 'cause he's always doing it at the dinner table, which drives my brother George up the wall. And I'm smiling to beat the band 'cause if I've lost this race, or if me and Gretchen tied, or even if I've won, I can always retire as a runner and begin a whole new career as a coach with Raymond as my champion. After all, with a little more study I can beat Cynthia and her phony self at the spelling bee.

Don't forget his musical innovations, bands, or personal life stories.

Answers

Explanation:

 

                       ESSAY ON THE LIFE OF MILES DAVIS

Miles Davis, undoubtedly was born in a time marked by racism, although he was characterized by being a genius with the trumpet, he was a victim of racism, yet Miles with that daring personality and with that spirit of leadership that characterized him, He did not prevent those events from discouraging him from continuing to play, from continuing to create melodies with his trumpet that reached the hearts of all kinds of people regardless of their race, color, or religion, Miles through his music reflected that desire for equality for all within a nation that resisted to tolerate and give freedom of expression. That is why Miles today is remembered not only as a great ingenuity that opened the way for other people to also enter music. Miles Davis was the dominant force in jazz for at least thirty-five years. He listened, touched, and sought his own perspective; his gaze was always focused on the present and the future, never on the past. He argued that music must change (like the world) to maintain its significance. He never stood still, he never tamed, he never sought his comfort space; was constantly being reborn. Like every superior artist, with each change he left behind one style or way of working to face another; In this way he gained new followers and lost others, gained new accolades and new detractors. And none of it mattered to him.

Between 1975 and 1980, Miles stopped playing to deepen and ultimately abandon his brutal cocaine addiction. At the end of that period, in a self-taught and almost therapeutic way, to finish cleaning his body and mind of the drug intake that he maintained for almost four decades, he took up the brush and devoted himself to reflecting his thoughts on the canvas. What started as a hobby became a true passion for the musician. He took classes in New York with Jo Gelbard, with whom he developed a very good and sincere relationship; in fact, she accompanied him in his last days.

Miles's routine included painting in the morning for about five hours, then practicing with his instrument for a couple of hours, boxing, and finally composing and recording. “Painting for me is therapeutic. It keeps my mind busy with something while I'm not playing. "  Very few of his paintings were exhibited during his lifetime, and it was only after his death that the more than one hundred works by Miles began touring galleries and museums around the world in their own right. At his last European concert in Paris in 1991, he played against the background of one of his large paintings.

what is a negative statement

Answers

Hey!!

Here's your answer:

A negative sentence is a sentence that states that something is false. In English, we create negative sentences by adding the word 'not' after the auxiliary, or helping, verb. An example of an auxiliary verb is the helping verb 'be.' There are different forms that 'be' takes, including 'am,' 'is,' 'are,' 'was,' and 'were.'

For example:

1.She is not happy.

2.They were not playing football.
