Intelligent Assistant: Google Now Beats Siri
Adapted from “Is Android or iPhone the Better Smartphone?” by Sam Costello.
www.lifewire.com. April 20, 2017
Artificial intelligence will be a very important feature of what smartphones can do in
the near future. In terms of artificial intelligence, Android has a clear lead.
The most popular artificial intelligence/intelligent assistant system on Android in
Google Now. It is extremely powerful. It uses everything Google knows about you and
the world to make life easier for you. For instance, if your Google Calendar knows that
your parents are picking you up from school at 3:30 and that traffic is terrible, Google
Now can send your parents a notification telling them to leave early.
Siri is Apple's answer to Google Now for artificial intelligence. It's improving all the
time with each new iOS release, but it's still limited to fairly simple tasks when
compared to Google Now.
Where do you think the author stands on this issue?
What part of this article helps your own claim (the idea that you support)? Write your thoughts here.
the author stands by the belief that android is more advanced, therefore "better". They show the difference between Siri and Google Now, and give an example of the things that Google Now can do, and I agree with the author in the opinion that Android is better, because it has more and better features.

Explanation:

answer
The skunk (also known as the polecat) is most commonly known for their ability to secrete a foul, strong smelling odor from their rear end, when the skunk feels that it is under threat.
There are 11 known species of skunk in the world, with most of these skunk species inhabiting the American continent. Two of these skunk species are found in Indonesia and the Philippines. The color of the skunk can vary from the typical black and white to grey, cream and even brown. However, all skunks are striped and baby skunks are even born with their striped markings regardless of their color.
The average skunk is between 40 and 70 cm in height and weighs about the same as a domestic cat. The skunk hunts insects, small birds and mammals. Skunks also commonly eat berries, roots, grasses and fungi in order to supplement their diet.
Baby skunks are born completely toothless and blind, with the eyes of the baby skunk not opening until the skunk is a few weeks old. The baby skunks are also unable to use their defensive spray when they are first born. The skunks spraying ability develops just before it’s eyes open when the skunk is a couple of weeks old.
Skunks are generally solitary animals and only really come together to breed. In colder regions however, skunks have been known to inhabit communal burrows in order to try to keep each other warm. Most skunks hide in burrows during the day which the skunk digs out with its long front claws.
Although skunks have excellent smell and hearing, skunks are known to have very poor vision and can only see objects that are right in front of them. With the introduction of cars, numerous skunks have been killed on the roads as the skunks cannot see the cars coming towards them until it is too late.
Female skunks usually give birth to their babies in the hotter month of May after a gestation period of a couple of months. The female skunk gigs out a burrow in which to give birth to her skunk babies (kits) and the baby skunks will usually stay with their mother until they are about a year old and are old enough to mate themselves.

she got soaked walking home in the rain yesterday because her umbrella was in her gym locker.
what part in the sentence is a clause
Answer:
They are both clauses, but "She got soaked walking home in the rain yesterday" is an independent clause, and "Because her umbrella was in her gym locker" is a dependent clause.
Explanation:
An independent clause is a part of a sentence that can be all by itself and still be a proper sentence that makes sense.
A dependent clause is a part of a sentence that needs an independent clause to help it turn into a real sentence.
EX:
Independent Clause: The baby started crying
That can be its own sentence
Dependent Clause: Because it was hungry
That cannot go by itself and does not say what is hungry and what it was doing because it was hungry
But if you add them together...
The baby started crying because it was hungry.
Does this help?
They are both clauses, but "She got soaked walking home in the rain yesterday" is an independent clause, and "Because her umbrella was in her gym locker" is a dependent clause.
What is a dependent and independent clause?An independent clause is a sentence component that can stand alone while still functioning as a complete, logical sentence.
A dependent clause is a sentence fragment that depends on an independent clause to function as a complete sentence.
A sentence with a subject and verb is referred to as an independent clause if it doesn't need any more information to be understood.
Dependent clauses provide background information but are unable to stand alone as sentences since they begin with subordinating conjunctions like "while," "that," or "unless."
A set of words that "contains a subject and verb and communicates a full thought" is referred to as an independent clause.
An incomplete concept is not fully expressed by a dependent clause, which is defined as "a set of words that contains a subject and verb." Before coordinating conjunction, use a comma.

Europe lives in me, but I have no home there. My first language was spanglish. I was born at the crossroads Spanish is in my flesh, ripples from my tongue, lodges in my hips:
Answer:
Spanish is in my flesh, ripples from my tongue, lodges in my hips:
Explanation:
Imagery is the figure of speech that promotes an increase in the physical perception of the reader, in relation to the text. This perception is related to the activation of the five sensory senses, which the imagery wishes to itemize, making the reader have a real feeling about something.
An example of this can be seen in the question above, where the phrase "Spanish is in my flesh, ripples from my tongue, lodges in my hips" stimulates the reader's ability to "feel" and shows that language becomes part of identity speaker's physics.

Excerpt from Book of Etiquette
Lillian Eichler
Various foods are eaten with the fingers instead of fork or spoon. Bread, for instance, is never cut but always broken into small pieces and lifted to the mouth with the fingers. Butter is seldom provided at the formal dinner, but if it is, each little piece of bread is buttered individually just before it is eaten. Crackers and cake are eaten in the same way; although some cakes and pastries are eaten with the fork. Those that can be eaten daintily with the fingers such as macaroons, lady-fingers, cookies, etc., should be eaten so while layer cake and elaborate pastries should be eaten with the fork.

Answer:
The Conclusion should begin with…
C. A brief reiteration of the main idea.
Explanation:
The purpose of writing a conclusion is to wrap up the presentation of your ideas. Therefore, a conclusion should never present new information or evidence, since that will only make it an extension of the text's body. The conclusion should restate what the author has said previously, focusing especially on the main idea or claim, but in a shorter way, with fewer words. For that reason, the best option is letter C. a brief reiteration of the main idea.

Read the article "Voyages of Discovery:"
Centuries ago, countries sponsored explorers to set sail for parts unknown and return with tales of new lands. These explorations led the Europeans to discover North America. The ocean journey from England, France, or Spain to North America was 3,000 miles of unknown dangers, but it led to discoveries. Explorers made these treacherous voyages for three main reasons: religion, wealth, and competition. These voyages of discovery began in the eleventh century.
Historical records indicate that Leif Eriksson, a Viking explorer, was the first man to reach North America around 1000. Leif is credited with landing along the coastline of present-day Newfoundland. A Viking settlement was established and occupied for several years before Eriksson left to return to his homeland. He died around 1020.
Much later, Christopher Columbus left his homeland in 1492 to seek wealth in the form of trade items. The Italian explorer was destined for China but erred in direction and arrived on Watling's Island in the Bahamas. It was a long and dangerous journey. Upon arrival, Columbus dedicated the newly discovered land to the Spanish King and Queen of Aragon. Then, Columbus made three more voyages to North America in 1493, 1498, and 1502. To the very end, Christopher Columbus was adamant that he discovered a trade route to China. He denied ever being to North America.
Credited with sailing around the southern tip of Florida, Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon had several adventures in the New World. His journey around Florida occurred in 1513. At the time, he thought Florida was an island. When he returned to Florida in 1521, he was wounded by a poisoned arrow, which ultimately ended his life.
Afterward, Hernando De Soto, a Spanish adventurer, left to explore present-day Florida in 1538. He and his men traveled thousands of miles through the South. They were the first Europeans recorded to have crossed the Mississippi River in 1541.
Sir Walter Raleigh was a soldier, a writer, and a friend of the Queen of England. Around 1587, he sent English colonists to a region later called Virginia. The colony is believed to have been located in North Carolina. Since the people arrived together, their previous lifestyle and beliefs were transplanted to the New World.
Finally, Rene Robert de La Salle was French. Historical data credits de La Salle as being the first explorer to traverse the Mississippi to its mouth at the Gulf of Mexico. He claimed the land that bordered the Mississippi River (about a third of present-day United States) for France on April 9, 1682. He built numerous forts along the route, but the settlers were often terrorized by the natives.
These brave explorers from England, France, and Spain have left their legacy. As a result of their adventures, many people now enjoy North America's religious diversity, natural resources, and independence.

nain
Answer:
paragraph 1
Explanation:
Hope this helps
And Scrooge's name was good upon 'Change, for anything he chose to put his hand to" is the quote from the text best supports the answer to Part A. Hence, option A is correct.
What Is Scrooge?The surname Scrooge first appears in the USA in 1920. In 1920, there was only one Scrooge family in Pennsylvania. This accounted for all Scrooges who had ever been formally documented in the USA, or 100% of them.
In A Christmas Carol and all of its incarnations, Belle was Ebenezer Scrooge's love interest. From the time she got engaged until his finances were better, he put off the wedding. When Belle eventually realized he was more concerned with his bank account than she was, she decided to call off their engagement.
Scrooge was most likely based on the Old English verb scruze, which means "to squeeze or compress," and the ancient word scrouging, which has a range of "squeezing, crushing, crowding" meanings.
Thus, option A is correct.

Read the paragraph.
For a kid, it seems like driving a car is the coolest activity ever. However, adults will explain that there are good and bad sides to driving. While it is great to be able to go more places in a car, gas and maintenance can be very expensive. Also, driving a car requires one’s full attention, and there is always the risk of an accident. Adults report that one of the most frustrating things about driving is traffic. My mom says that when she drives home from work each day, the highway is a parking lot. A drive that should only take fifteen minutes can last more than an hour. It makes riding a bike sound a lot better!
What is the meaning of the metaphor in the paragraph?
1. Cars give people the freedom to drive wherever they want to go.
2. Cars are risky to drive and cause more trouble than they are worth.
3. Cars are delayed or stopped because so many people are using the road.

How did Eliot create a whimsical, light-hearted, funny attitude? Write in complete sentences and cite 2 pieces of evidence.
(At least 5 sentences)
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Read the poem "Macavity the Mystery Cat", by T. S. Eliot
How did Eliot create a whimsical, light-hearted, funny attitude? Write in complete sentences and cite 2 pieces of evidence.
(At least 5 sentences)
Answer:
Eliot uses literary devices such as assonance, repetition, alliteration, imagery, and personification to create a whimsical tone.
Explanation:
Assonance, Alliteration, and Repetition provide a musical tone throughout the poem.
Assonance is the repetition of a vowel. For example "Macavity's a Mystery Cat: he's called the Hidden Paw For he's the master criminal who can defy the Law."
Alliteration is the repetition of a consonant. For example "And his footprints are not found in any file of Scotland Yard's."
Repetition is the use of the same word several times. For example "Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity."
However, the most fun element is probably personification. The cat is portrayed as a criminal mastermind capable of doing things that should be impossible for a cat, such as stifling Pekes, espionage, and many crimes.
