Dear Director.
My name is John Smith, I am the secretary of the English Literature Association of the city and I am writing this letter to ask if there is availability to visit the National Museum for the senior classes of Thomas Jefferson High School.
I believe that this visit would be very beneficial for our students, who will be able to have access to sources of historical knowledge of different natures present in the museum. This would have a great positive impact on students' academic life, as it would allow them to have a fruitful and uplifting tour in their final years of high school. Furthermore, I hope that with this visit, students understand the importance of preserving historical documents and objects and how this is essential for the advancement of our society.
I would add that we will take all necessary sanitary precautions to avoid infections both among students and employees.
I look forward to receiving your reply.
Regards
John Smith.

My love to Hermia,
Melted as the snow, seems to me now
As the remembrance of an idle gaud
A. Helena
B. Theseus
C. Egeus
D. Lysander
Answer:
B. Theseus
Explanation:
"Midsummer Night's Dream" is a play written by Shakespeare. This play is a comedy, where there is a lot of confusion with couples in love, humans and fairies.
In this play we are introduced to Hermia and Lysander, who are in love and want to get married, but cannot. Hermia's father promised her in marriage to Demetrius who loves her, but Helena loves Demetrius who is not interested in her.
The four young people are victims of a fairy prank that makes Helena fall in love with Lysander, while Demetrius and Lysaner fall in love with Helena. This creates a great deal of confusion, which needs to be resolved by Theseus, the Duke of Rome.
When Theseus goes to talk to the young people to understand what happened, Demetrius tells him:
"My love to Hermia,
Melted as the snow, seems to me now
As the remembrance of an idle gaud"
who would you argue for being more intelligent men or women? why? you can use bertrand russell idea given in the essay " Keeping errors at bay"
Answer:
According to the concepts covered in "Keeping errors at bay," we can assume that women are smarter.
Explanation:
According to science, men and women have equal brains and are susceptible to the same levels of intelligence. For centuries, scientists have tried to determine who is more intelligent among men and women, but no research has been able to show significant differences in the intelligence of each gender. However, if we consider the concepts presented in "Keeping errors at bay" we can consider women to be more intelligent people than men.
That's because "Keeping errors at bay" presents intelligence as a person's ability to exterminate intolerant and incorrect thoughts, overcome their prejudices, selfishness and feelings of superiority. This type of behavior is more common in women than in men, because unlike women, men have been taught that this type of behavior is behavior that devalues them and shows them as weak. The fear of "fragility," therefore, causes men to maintain bad and negative behaviors, which diminishes their intelligence.

There were some changes Tom had to adjust to. One of the most important things was the driving. He had already learned how to drive back in Uganda, but this was a new transition. He had to learn how to drive on the right side of the road because in Uganda, they drive on the left hand side. Another obstacle he faced was the weather. Although Uganda is located by the equator, it is not as hot as it may seem. He informed me that, they too, had cold nights. It was still nothing compared to the weather he had to face when he arrived here. The money issue wasn't that hard for him to comprehend. He did, however, have to adjust to the food. He then went on to say that there were foods that you just can't get over here, like certain fruits, vegetables, and meats. He did have to get used to the education system; the way we evaluated our grades was quite different than what he was used to. Which sentence from the passage explicitly states the central idea? One of the most important things was the driving. There were some changes Tom had to adjust to. The money issue wasn't that hard for him to comprehend. He did, however, have to adjust to the food.
Answer:
I believe the answer is there were some changes tom had to adjust to.
hi guys , i need a paragraph about the physical health of homeless children
help pls !!
Answer:
I gotchu
Explanation:
The physical health of homeless children is significantly worse than the physical health of homed children. Homed children typically have access to proper nourishment, clean environments, shelter from the elements, and access to doctors when the need arises. However, homeless children likely have access to none of this on the account of them likely not having the money to afford it. Thus, homeless children who suffer with malnutrition, exposure to the elements, and no access to medical treatment have significantly worse health than children that have homes.

Hope it hwlp you!:)
which one i am confused
Answer:
B. Ad hominem attack
Explanation:
Fallacy can be defined as a mistaken or false belief that are based on illogical arguments or reasoning.
However, a lot of people might actually think it to be true but it isn't. There are various types of fallacy and these include; black or white, non sequitur, bandwagon, appeal to authority, straw man, and oversimplification or hasty generalization, appeal to ignorance, ad hominem, etc.
Ad hominem can be defined as a type of fallacy in which the motive, character, or some other aspect of a person is attacked rather than his or her position.
This ultimately implies that, an ad hominem is typically based on prejudices, emotions, or feelings rather than appealing to reason, intellect or substance.
In this scenario, the logical fallacy used in the above passage is an ad hominem attack. We can deduce from the passage that the speaker targeted or appealed to the grade of the opponent rather than focus on issues around being an effective class president.
Which of these lines contains an internal rhyme?
Answer:
The guests are met, the feast is set
Explanation:
The only question left to be settled now is: Are women
persons? I scarcely believe any of our opponents will have
the hardihood to say they are not. Being persons, then,
women are citizens, and no State has a right to make any
new law, or to enforce any old law, which shall abridge their
privileges or immunities. Hence, every discrimination
against women in the constitutions and laws of the several
States is today null and void, precisely as is every one
against negroes.
-Susan B. Anthony, "Speech After Being Convicted of
Voting"
Why does Susan B. Anthony connect the struggle of black people and the
fight for women's suffrage in the passage?
O A. To appeal to those who are unsure about the end of slavery
B. To appeal to an audience that is against slavery
O C. To appeal to the former slaves in the audience
O D. To appeal to the audience members who are pro-slavery
Answer: C. To appeal to the former slaves in the audience
Explanation:
Susan Anthony was convicted of wrongfully voting in 1872. By this time, slavery had been abolished in the United States as a result of the Union defeating the Confederacy and then passing the 13th Amendment.
Susan Anthony could not therefore be trying to appeal to those against slavery because there was no slavery. She must have been appealing to the former enslaved people in the audience who were still being mistreated simply because they were black.

Keiko handed her castle project to her teacher that was late.
How does the misplaced modifier cause confusion in the student's sentence?
It seems like Keiko is handing a castle to her teacher.
It seems like the teacher is handing a project to Keiko.
It seems like the teacher is the one who is late.
It seems like the teacher did not receive the project.
Answer:
It seems like the teacher is the one who is late.
Explanation:
Misplaced modifiers are the modifiers that are misplaced or placed in such a way that they are far from the noun they intend to modify. In other words, modifiers placed away from the intended noun and seem like they are modifying another word are known as misplaced modifiers.
In the given sentence, the modifier "that was late" was intended for Keiko's project. But rather, it is placed next to the noun "teacher" making it seem like it is the teacher who's late. This is a case of a misplaced modifier.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

SHARKS' TEETH
Langston Carter
The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.
We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.
Read this sentence from the text:
We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land.
What is the best explanation for beached the boat based on the context of this sentence?
Created an anchor for the boat on shore
Not taken the boat on that day
Returned the boat to its harbor
Stopped or parked the boat
Answer:
Stopped or parked the boat
Explanation:
In the text presented in the question above, we can see that the narrator and his companions decided to stop the boat they used to navigate to explore the region out of the water. To stop the boat and gain access to dry land, they would need to park that boat, so it would be safe to get off the boat and walk around the area knowing and exploring it.
In this case, through the context of the text, when the narrator states that they had beached the boat, he is referring to the acts of stopping and parking the boat.

A.
space 1: auxiliary
space 2: Expresses actions being performed
space 3: RoboCup will remain at the cutting edge of technological advances.

D.
space 1: linking
space 2: Connects subjects and complements (i.e., predicate adjectives and predicate nominatives)
space 3: RoboCup will remain at the cutting edge of technological advances.
The correct answer is C.
space 1: auxiliary
space 2: Connects subjects and complements (i.e., predicate adjectives and predicate nominatives)
space 3: RoboCup will remain at the cutting edge of technological advances.
Explanation
In the English language, verbs are classified into three categories: auxiliary, linking, and action. To begin, auxiliary verbs include verbs such as could and would that complement other verbs. This is the type of verb described in the first row of the chart.
Secondly, there are action verbs that include verbs such as go, play, cut, etc, referring to an action. An example of this is the verb remains in the sentence "RoboCup will remain at the cutting edge of technological advances" which describes a specific action.
Finally, liking verbs connect this object or agent to another part of the sentence such as a predicate adjective or predicate nominative. This includes verbs such as the verb to be. According to this, the best definition for linking verbs is "connects subjects and complements".

One apple, two apples, three apples, etc. are all examples of countable nouns. Uncountable nouns, such as air, rice, water, etc., cannot be tallied. When learning a new word, it is important to determine if it is countable or uncountable and to take note of its placement in a sentence.
