Answer:

Which words are oxymoron
Answer:
An oxymoron is a self-contradicting word or group of words (as in Shakespeare's line from Romeo and Juliet, "Why, then, O brawling love O loving hate"). A paradox is a statement or argument that seems to be contradictory or to go against common sense, but that is yet perhaps still true-for example, "less is more."
Example: Suddenly the room filled with a deafening silence.The comedian was seriously funny. You are clearly confused by the situation you have found yourself in. Her singing was enough to raise the living dead.Answer:
Only choice. Same difference. Friendly fire.
Explanation:
PART B: Which detall from the text best supports the answer to Part A?
IRI.11
A. "They tell them that their fingerprints were at the scene when they weren't, that
they flunked a polygraph when they didn't, that an eye witness saw them do it
when there is no such person." (Paragraph 19)
"When people are mentally and physically fatigued, which is what happens in a
sleep deprivation situation, they are more likely to do whatever It takes to end a
punishing current situation" (Paragraph 20)
c. "People also sometimes falsely confess because they want the attention
associated with a high-profile crime." (Paragraph 21)
D. "Still, law enforcement officials are unlikely to alter their tactics anytime soon,
says Loftus: There is obviously a belief that sleep-deprived interrogations help
capture the guilty better."" (Paragraph 23)
Answer:
Part A answer: C. Sleep deprivation can cause distress in the body and mind, which makes suspects unable to understand what they are saying or the consequences of their confession.
From these options, it looks like B. supports the answer to part A the best. "When people are mentally fatigued, which is what happens in a sleep deprivation situation, they are more likely to do whatever It takes to end a punishing current situation."
Someone may confess just to get out of the situation, even if they aren't guilty. When someone is super tired, they wouldn't understand that confessing comes with consequences, that they could go to jail for the rest of their lives, they would be paying for someone else's crime.
answer: "When people are mentally and physically fatigued, which is what happens in a sleep deprivation situation, they are more likely to do whatever It takes to end a punishing current situation" (Paragraph 20)

Utopias & Dystopias: Comparing & Contrasting Two Different Worlds
Utopia, and dystopia, two different worlds, two similar names, yet so different in so many ways. A paradise, or a world gone wrong. Equal, or unequal. Perfect, or not. So many factors influence the living conditions that are in either the not-near future or what could have been our past.
Utopias were quite popular during the 19 century when William Morris wrote News From Nowhere in the late 1800's. People strive to create utopias in the US. A few of the places where utopian communities were started include Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Iowa, and New York. None of the creators succeeded, although having good intentions.
Dystopians, as stated earlier, are the exact opposite. The Giver, by Lois Lowry is a perfect example of this. Lowry wrote the book to show her discontent in the lack of awareness humans have about giving their rights and independence to another party, who often uses means of getting rid of anything that may be violating the policy of "sameness". Some examples in the book are when the Council gets rid of color, and the main character gets frustrated knowing that he would not have an opinion in the color of clothes her wears, what music he listens to and much more.
Although Jonas' community may seem highly utopian, children being given training for their future careers, it is highly dystopian. The society is run by an oli-garchy, which is a government run by a few people - in this case, the Community of Elders enforced the "laws". In his community, there is no drought, starvation, lack of housing, poverty, or even prejudice. Although we notice later in the book that the entire area has given up their basic rights, their freedoms, for this "common good" that people are being blinded by. The Community is aware of this, and thereby forbids that anyone from sharing the details of their job, even with their "family". Jonas realizes this is nothing but hypocrisy, and a society based on false ideals of goodness and conformity.
Overall, utopias are a place of ideal goodness, a place where everything is uniform, which in my opinion, would be a place where females and males have equal rights, and an equal say in politics, roles, and there would be no stereotypes restricting people based on gender identity, race, ethnicity, or income. Income would be at various costs depending on how large the family would be, and everyone would receive an education specifically to their career options, which would be based on their interests. There would not be climate change, plastic pollution, or an increased population, doesn't that sound ideal? However, with the world we have created today, it would be almost impossible for us to mold the already-hardened clay.
To sum up my statement, utopias are where there are no problems or issues presented, where everyone is equal, and all-in-all, an ideal society that everyone feels safe. A dystopia would be one where there is a group, person, or area controlling the entire community, whose ideas are presented in The Hunger Games, Animal Farm, The City of Ember, and many other extraordinary books.

Which quotation correctly uses ellipsis to shorten AnthonyS words
Caring for a Pet
Including children in caring for a pet can be a positive experience. It teaches children valuable lessons.
Abiding by the decision to take care of a pet teaches young children accountability. When they agree to share the responsibilities, they become liable for their pet's livelihood. The 2011–2012 National Pet Owners Survey reported that "as many as 58 percent of pet owners claimed that caring for their pets taught their children responsibility." There are many age-appropriate tasks that young children can help parents with such as feeding or putting a pet's toys away. Laura Kang, a parent, states, "Sometimes even my most responsible daughter makes mistakes, but I turn these moments into educational ones by coming up with a plan together for how to do better next time."
These caregiving tasks also teach children the importance of taking ownership for their actions. Tina Smith, a well-known family counselor, suggests that "showing how children's actions help pets should be celebrated when done right." Another parent, John Wiggin, agrees: "Consequences for not following through with duties should not be a punishment but instead be a teaching moment to help children understand the importance of their responsibility." Their tasks play a huge part in keeping their pet healthy and happy.
Some argue that owning a dog is too much work for a child, but the hard work involved is worth the time and effort in the long run. It builds self-confidence and self-esteem that last into their adulthood.
Select the correct answer.
The author most likely wrote this article
A.
to inform the reader that caring for a pet is more difficult than people think.
B.
to teach the reader about the proper ways to teach children responsibility.
C.
to entertain the reader with stories about how parents deal with their children.
D.
to persuade the reader that parents should adopt a pet into their family.

Jenna is reviewing her friend Tammy's paper. She notices that Tammy’s grammar is incorrect in several places. What is a constructive way for Jenna to give feedback to Tammy?
A.
She tells her other friends and the teacher that Tammy’s grammar is incorrect and then asks them to give Tammy advice.
B.
She simply tells Tammy that her grammar needs work and leaves it at that.
C.
She points out to Tammy where the grammar is incorrect and shows her how she can improve her grammar.
D.
She uses Tammy’s paper to help improve her own paper.
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
I usually get told this is incorrect from the point of view of someone else who has been corrected multiple times in the past. Understandably, if Tammy doesn't like you, you wouldn't tell her.
But, in a perfect world, this is [ideally and probably] the best way. Letting Tammy know "hey, this is how to improve" is better than humiliating her in front of her friends and the teacher and ultimately bringing down her confidence. Direct correction might work better because then she will see her mistakes and be told how to fix them for her future reference.
Remember: Writing is thinking. Writing is literally just translating the words you're thinking into words on a page/computer or other media.
If she [Tammy] is offended, talking to the teacher may be the best way so the teacher can handle it.

population
1.does the statement contain claims of fact? why?
Answer:
Yes it does. Because it can be provenExplanation:
When a statement of fact is made with regards to a variable, it means that the variable can be proven by actual evidence. Sometimes we may not be able to prove it ourselves so we leave that up to reputable people or organizations who specialize in the field of the variable in question.
Internet World Statistics is one such organization so if they say that there are a certain number of Filipino internet users in the country in a certain year, then chances are that it is a statement of fact because they have researched it and proven it to be true.

Question 8( Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)
(MC)
Read this excerpt from Little Brother and answer the following question
Marcus manages to flag down a vehicle and they get more than they bargained for...
It was a military-looking Jeep, like an armored Hummer, only it didn't have any military insignia on it The car skidded to a stop just in front of me, and I jumped back and lost my balance and
ended up on the road. I felt the doors open near me, and then saw a confusion of booted feet moving close by I looked up and saw a bunch of military-looking guys in coveralls, holding big,
bulky rifles and wearing hooded gas masks with tinted face-plates
I barely had time to register them before those rifles were pointed at me. I'd never looked down the barrel of a gun before, but everything you ve heard about the experience is true You
freeze where you are, time stops, and your heart thunders in your ears. I opened my mouth, then shut it, then, very slowly, I held my hands up in front of me
The faceless, eyeless armed man above me kept his gun very level. I didn't even breathe Van was screaming something and Jolu was shouting and I looked at them for a second and that
was when someone put a coarse sack over my head and cinched it tight around my windpipe, so quick and so fiercely I barely had time to gasp before it was locked on me I was pushed
roughly but dispassionately onto my stomach and something went twice around my wrists and then tightened up as well, feeling like baling wire and biting cruelly I cried out and my own
voice was muffled by the hood
Which line best shows the conflict in the passage?
The car skidded to a stop just in front of me, and I jumped back and lost my balance
I barely had time to register them before those nifles were pointed at me
Van was screaming something and Jolu was shouting
I cried out and my own voice was muffled by the hood

Study the editorial cartoon Recycling? Bah! by Don Landgren Jr.
A man sits in a chair in front of a T V. He is throwing a globe behind him onto a huge pile of trash. He says "Recycling? Bah! Too much work."
What is the cartoonist's perspective in this cartoon?
that we are destroying our planet because we are lazy
that recycling is too difficult even though it will save the planet
that landfills are a better way to get rid of our trash
that people who watch television are not as likely to recycle trash
Answer:
A: that we are destroying our planet because we are lazy
Explanation:
took the test on edgen 2021
The cartoonist's perspective in this cartoon is that we are destroying our planet because we are lazy.
What is recycling?Recycling is the process of breaking down and reusing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash. The basic phases in recycling are the collection of waste materials, their processing or manufacture into new products, and the purchase of those products, which may then themselves be recycled. Typical materials that are recycled include iron and steel scrap, aluminum cans, glass bottles, paper, wood, and plastics.
How being lazy has caused the destruction in planet?To a large extent, we have wasted and misused our natural resources and are on the path of destroying the most beautiful planet. The first problem is the issue of whether or not to use fossil fuels. Mankind have been using the coal, oil and gas, which are being formed over millions of years, for a long time. Another cause of the planet’s destruction is litter. People nowadays seem to have more important things to do than walk another 2 minutes up the street to put an empty crisp packet in the bin.
Thus, the cartoonist's perspective in this cartoon is that we are destroying our planet because we are lazy.
