The keeper by mal peet. Discribe the characters?
Answer:
The Boy: A skinny boy who really has the passion for soccer but doesn't have the skills to play. He soon meets the Mentor, Keeper. The Keeper: A Ghostly mentor who teaches the boy about soccer and the basics of being a keeper. Faustino: The reporter that is interviewing El Gato, or the boy.
Explanation:
In Keeper there are three main characters. The first character that will be written about is El Gato, the protagonist of the story. El Gato is actually just a nickname. He is a huge man who normally is very quiet. He is a world cup winning goalkeeper, and throughout the story, he is telling a soccer reporter his past in an interview. El Gato's mentor was a mysterious man referred to 'The Keeper' and nothing more. The Keeper's actual name is never mentioned at all in the book. The Keeper was somewhat of a phantom, and one doesn't learn much about him until the end of the story. The last character was a reporter, whose name is Paul Faustino. He wants to do the interview to receive a big bonus from his boss, because Paul is obsessed with money. NB: The reporter, Paul Faustino, was the first character mentioned in the story. El Gato was the second, and the Keeper was the third.

What makes Tea Cake finally “snap”? What happens as a result?
Answer:
The one that causes Tea Cake to finally "snap" is the fact that Mrs. Turner, a co-owner of a coffee shop, would introduce his wife to her white son, since she considered it unacceptable that a Caucasian woman was with a black man, when Tea Cake heard the conversation, beat his wife severely, which generated the separation of the couple, many thought that the rage expressed by Tea Cake was product of Hydrophobia, a disease from which he died shortly after.
Explanation:
What made the Tea Cake “snap” was the jealousy he felt towards his wife.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Tea Cake was filled with rage when he saw that Mrs. Turner was introducing a man to his wife.He found this unacceptable and completely lost control, reaching the point of assaulting his wife and threatening her life.In addition to the jealousy, he felt diminished as he is a black man and his wife was being introduced to a white man.Tea Cake's reaction is vastly over the top and reflects his explosive and passionate personality.

The Giver chapter 21 and 23 summary
Answer:
chapter 21
Jonas notices that his memories are fading a bit, which is what he and The Giver had expected: as he moves further and further away from the community, the memories should be released to the citizens and thus fade from his mind. As the days go on, the planes become less and less frequent. Finally, they stop altogether.
chapter 23
One day, it snows, leaving Jonas and Gabriel cold, hungry, and exhausted. Jonas has just a few memories left from The Giver, but he finds one of sunshine and transmits it to Gabriel. When the memory of sunshine is gone, he focuses on his memories of his friends, family, and The Giver.

Answer:

Explanation:
It all started as a rumor, and before long, everyone knew about it. I thought I could keep my secrets to myself, but they were bound to escape me at some point. My name is Peter. Through an abnormality found upon my birth, I was born with an extra pinky toe, and with it came many intrusive thoughts. After a certain age, age 7 in fact, I became incredibly self-conscious, and the aforementioned thoughts became commonplace in my frontal lobe. Reflections like "I wish I was normal," and "Why was I born this way?" were incredibly common thoughts I would bring up. No one listened or cared to share advice until the 8th grade. By that point, I was largely comfortable with my genetic appendage and never paid it much mind. However, that all changed on the day I mentioned my extra toe to my best friend, a well-known gossipmonger in my school. It was then that everyone knew, and the day I decided not to attend high school next year. It started as a rumor, grew to insane proportions, and will remain a mystery from now on, unknown to all except who I trust.

Which word in this excerpt from H. G. Wells's The War of the Worlds provides a context clue to the meaning of the word descended?
Answer:
Fallen.
Explanation:
The term "descended" means the act of falling, coming down from a higher place to a lower place. It is the act of coming down from a higher grown to a lower grown.
In H. G. Wells's "The War of the Worlds", the narrator/ speaker uses the term "fall/ fallen" multiple times in the given excerpt. The speaker describes the fallen mass "from outer space" which people thought must be another meteorite. And that was also why people did not go looking for it, for no one thought or expected it to be an alien ship.
Thus, the word is "fallen".
What are the costs and benefits of technology? Use this article, your own experience, and other examples in your answer.
Hello. You did not quote the article to which this question refers, which prevents evidence from the article from being used in the answer. However, I hope this helps you.
Technology has promoted many benefits to society. Among these benefits we can mention the speed and ease of communication between people, since currently with the existence of smartphones, computers and the internet, we can communicate with people anywhere in the world and this communication is done very quickly, something that it was not possible without technology. In addition, technology has made human displacement faster, has promoted agility in agriculture, education and many other sectors. Finally, we can say that tecnoloigia has shown improvements in the knowledge and fight against diseases, which has elevated people's life perspectives.
However, technology has presented some disadvantages. Among these disadvantages we can mention the great pollution that technological devices have caused, in addition to presenting imbalance in access to technology worldwide, where many people need to live without access to technology, while others control all the technology presented on the planet. In addition, technology has replaced human labor in several sectors, which can increase unemployment. An example of this can be seen in Hong Kong, where many supermarkets have robots as employees.

Explanation:
Read this excerpt from the speech "Cause of the Great War" delivered by British Prime Minister David Lloyd George after World War I. Which statement accurately describes the use of rhetorical devices in this excerpt? We begged Germany not to attack Belgium, and produced a treaty, signed by the King of Prussia, as well as the King of England, pledging himself to protect Belgium against an invader, and we said, "If you invade Belgium we shall have no alternative but to defend it." The enemy invaded Belgium, and now they say, "Why, forsooth, you, England, provoked this war." It is not quite the story of the wolf and the lamb. I will tell you why —because Germany expected to find a lamb and found a lion.
Answer:
The writer uses metaphor to tell the audience that England will defeat Germany in the war.
Explanation:
According to the given excerpt from the speech "Cause of the Great War", the narrator talks about how Great Britain and other countries begged Germany not to invade Belgium because if they did so, their Allies would fight back, but they refused to take heed and tried to act like they were the ones that started the war.
The statement that accurately describes the use of rhetorical devices in this excerpt is that the writer uses metaphor to tell the audience that England will defeat Germany in the war.

.
a)exposition
b)rising action.

d)resolution
Answer: exposition
Explanation: the exposition, or the beginning of a story, is a great place to start introducing the setting because it helps the reader understand the story much earlier.
It would be weird to read a story, thinking it was taking place at school (based on context clues), and then like in the climax, one of the characters go "I'M BREAKING OUT OF THIS PRISON" and then you just sit there all flabbergasted

: “I want to find that cowrie shell. I search through seaweed heaped upon the sand, but all I find are beer can rings and plastic bottle tops. “What do these lines show about the attitude of people towards nature?
I looked this question up to see if it had answer choices, but I wasn't able to find any. So I will give you a general answer that may help you in case it does have answer choices.
Answer and Explanation:
The sentence "I want to find that cowrie shell. I search through seaweed heaped upon the sand, but all I find are beer can rings and plastic bottle tops" shows people's disrespect toward nature. It is easier to find plastic everywhere than it is to find natural shells in heaps of seaweed.
Most people do not seem to care that our actions influence the whole delicate system of our planet. Our waste is usually not properly disposed of, and industries keep on producing materials that are not recyclable or degradable. This has a harmful impact over other beings. The can rings and bottle tops mentioned in the sentence, for instance, are polluting and destroying habitats. If swallowed by fish and birds, for example, they will most likely end up making them sick or even killing them.
An author claims that "zoos do more good than harm." The author provides the following as support for the claim: In 2012, the well-respected research firm Martin and Associates conducted a study on the request of animal rights activists. The published report was overwhelmingly one-sided. Head researcher Adeline Moreno summed up the results by stating, "The importance of zoos cannot be overstated. The economic and educational benefits for humans are great. The protection and preservation of endangered species is even greater." Which choice best describes the support the author provides? (5 points) a It is effective support for the claim. b It is ineffective support because it does not help prove the claim. c It is ineffective support because it presents opinion rather than fact. d It is ineffective support because it provides no source for the information.
Answer:
It is ineffective support because it does not help prove the claim.
His claim is that they do more harm than good, but he uses a one sided study that states zoos are great for learning and species preservation.
