Answer: The Lion and the Tiger's words differ from their actions - instead of killing people as they planned, they help them.

Explanation:

<em>Irony</em> is a literary device in which a situation results in a completely different outcome than expected. In<em> "The Cowardly Lion and Hungry Tiger"</em>, L. Frank Baum's story, the Lion and the Tiger only appear to be brave - the Lion describes he will tear a person to pieces, while the Tiger plans to eat a fat baby. However, when they encounter a baby and a person, they help them instead of eating them. The Lion helps a person that falls down, while the Tiger finds a lost baby and brings it to its mother.

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

D. Jeremiah wants to join the soccer program.

Explanation:

<em>Outcast United </em>by Warren St. John tells the story of Luma al-Mufleh, a Jordanian national who came to the United States to escape her country's strict regulations on girls. Later, she would become a soccer coach for the Fugees, a football club she founded for the refugee kids in and around Clarkston, Georgia.

The given excerpt is about the Ziaty family who had come from Liberia to escape the civil war. But due to her inability to feel safe, the mother Beatrice Ziaty ordered her kids to not venture out of the house ever. So, the three kids were all cooped up in the house all day. The start of the football program excites the kids, especially Jeremiah who was eager to be part of the free program. Moreover, he was eager to be going out of the house to do what he loves best. Thus, we can conclude that Jeremiah wants to be part of the soccer program.

Which BEST describes Mr. Bixby's influence on the narrator's learning how to "read" the water?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Excerpt from: Life on the Mississippi

Mark Twain

THERE was no use in arguing with a person like this. I promptly put such a strain on my memory that by and by even the shoal water and the countless crossing-marks began to stay with me. But the result was just the same. I never could more than get one knotty thing learned before another presented itself. Now I had often seen pilots gazing at the water and pretending to read it as if it were a book; but it was a book that told me nothing. A time came at last, however, when Mr. Bixby seemed to think me far enough advanced to bear a lesson on water-reading. So he began—

Consider the usage of the word unanimously within the text in Article 10. Do you think that the initial letters un in unanimousl
fomenos

Although I do not have access to the Article 10 mentioned in the question, I can still offer an answer about the word "unanimously" and the prefix:

In "unanimously", the prefix "un" refers to "one".

  • Latin prefixes are common in the English language. By definition, a prefix is a group of letters added to the beginning of a word in order to make a new word. The new word has a meaning that is related to the meaning of the original word.
  • For example, take the word "ordinary". When we add the Latin prefix "extra", which means "outside", to it, we form "extraordinary", which means outside the ordinary, incredible, amazing.
  • The prefix "un" can have two meanings, as mentioned in the question: "one" and "not". In the word "unanimously", the meaning is "one".
  • "Unanimous" means "<u>of one mind</u>". Thus, if a decision is made "unanimously", that means people decided the same thing, as if they had one mind.

Using one piece of text evidence from each of the three texts to support your answer, explain how all three texts highlight the
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Both texts show people who are unhappy with their situations and willing to face adversity.

Explanation:

The three texts show people marginalized by society, because of their lives and due to society's prejudiced judgment. However, in all texts marginalized people are not willing to bow their heads and accept the unfair treatment that the system and society imposes.

These people are willing to face the adversities of the situation they are in. Even with the fear of failure, they are willing to fight and improve their quality of life, regardless of what society thinks of them, because they know that these things are not true.
