Assertiveness is someone who is behaving confidently and is not frightened to say what they want. <span>Assertive just means that you make things happen. You take action rather than the opposite, which would be 'passive'. That would mean you just sit by and let things happen to you, instead of making them happen for yourself. Being assertive is a good thing.

Arrogance is </span><span>an attitude of superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or in presumptuous claims or assumptions.
</span>
Passivity is allowing others to do things to you without complaining or pushing back. The babysitter's passivity<span> led her charges to walk all over her. They stayed up all night and tied her to the chair, and all she said was, "Please stop misbehaving." or something like that.</span>

Assertiveness is self-confidence that does not infringe on the feelings of others. Assertiveness allows a person to state their needs and assert their ideas. Arrogance, on the other hand, is highly confrontational. An arrogant individual insists on their viewpoint or idea because it is theirs, rather than the best possibility. A passive person, on the other hand, is unwilling to assert their needs and wants. They often put themselves in difficult positions because they are unwilling to refuse requests and demands on their time based on the idea of avoiding confrontation.

PLEASE HELP!!! I AM LITERALLY DESPERATE!!

Answer:

First Muir described how he slept sometimes without supper, and then he says he had no difficulty finding a loaf of bread at the farmers' houses. He starts of the paragraph with a complaint of sleeping without blankets, and starts to transition again into nature and its beauty. In the paragraph, Muir says "Storms, thunderclouds, winds in the woods—were welcomed as friends;" when we hear storms, thunderclouds, winds, etc. it brings fear, damage, but Muir then says "were welcomed as friends."

Read the excerpt from “Tools of the Spymaster." James Jay's invisible ink did not become visible by heating. As he described it,
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The statement which is best supported by text evidence from the excerpt is:

A. Heating was a generally known means of reading invisible ink.

Explanation:

<u>According to the excerpt, James Jay's invisible ink would "elude the generally known means of detection." What was that means? Heating, as is stated right before the sentence. Heating was so well know that Jay was sure the enemy would try to use it to reveal the writings in the messages. However, his new ink would not appear with heating. It needed another chemical to be made visible.</u>

We can easily eliminate the other options. The excerpt does not give us enough information to infer that Jay was seen as a hero. At no point does the passage lead us to understand that the British also had access to the ink. Finally, the excerpt does not at all say that Washington helped develop the new invisible ink.

Which excerpt from "Binding Memories” contains imagery that helps the reader understand why the speaker loves books?
egoroff_w [7]
I think the best answer is the first few lines of the "Binding Memories" which is "No matter how many were printed, <span>there was only one copy like mine.</span><span>". The lines really speaks to me that the speaker really loves his books and that no matter how many exist of that book, his copy is exceptional and the only one for him.</span>
