N "Water Flowing from Toilet to Tap May Be Hard to Swallow,” what reasons does Schwartz give to support his claim? Select two op

tions.
"Water recycling is common for uses like irrigation; purple pipes in many California towns deliver water to golf courses, zoos and farms."
"Enticing people to drink recycled water, however, requires getting past what experts call the 'yuck' factor."
"In November, the San Diego City Council voted for a $2.9 billion Pure Water program to provide a third of the city’s daily needs by 2035."
"The processes . . . that clean the water include microfiltration that strains out anything larger than 0.2 microns, removing almost all suspended solids, bacteria and protozoa."
"People tend to judge risk emotionally, he said, and a phrase like 'toilet to tap' can undercut earnest explanations."

Answer:

Explanation :Even though recycled water is accepted for uses like irrigation, recycling toilet water to tap water may make people feel reluctant and disgusted about the idea of drinking it. Besides, the phrase "toilet to tap" may reduce the strength of the advantages of recycling water. The reason is people may make prejudices based on their feelings about the dangers of drinking toilet water

The option through which the subject and verb agree are "finish/take"

A verb is one of the parts of speech in English language and it can be defined as any word that describes an action, occurrence, or state of existence. Thus, a verb is an action or doing word.

Some examples of a verb are dance, sing, walk, play, run, sit,  clap, cheer, read, etc.

A subject can be defined as the person, thing, idea or place that performs an action in a sentence.

On a related note, a subject-verb agreement is a situation in which there exist a relationship between the predicate and subject of a sentence.

This ultimately implies that, a subject and a verb must agree either in terms of number or tense usage.

In this context, the most appropriate verb to use in completing the sentence is finish (present tense) because its subject (crowd) is singular (each of the committee members). Also, the latter part of the sentence should be completed using the verb take (present tense).  

<em>In conclusion, the subject and verb in this scenario agrees when finish and take are used respectively.</em>

In "Water Never Hurt A Man" by Walter E. Edmonds, how does the author build the character of the son and what type of person is
Natalka [10]

Taken from the short story “Water Never Hurt A Man” by Walter E. Edmonds, the author presents two important characters in the story, the boy and his father. <u>ANSWER TO FIRST QUESTION</u>: The boy, whose name is John, is the son of George Brace. John is portrayed as an easily scared child at the beginning. Throughout the narrative of the cold, stormy night, John is always frightened of each stroke of lightning, bolts, and thunders. There are some passages from the text that show this character of George’s son: “At each stroke of lightning his small back stiffened. It was his first year on the canal and he was afraid of storms at night.”/ “…when lightning split the darkness he shut his eyes tight and pulled his head closer into his coat collar, waiting blindly for the thunder.”. <u>ANSWER TO SECOND QUESTION</u>: As regards George, John’s father, he is portrayed as a determined, strong man and he is not afraid of picking a fight with other men. In fact, George is described as the “bully of the Black River Canal” by some people. He constantly encourages John to take control of some things on the old Bacconola, even though these things scare him. For instance, the following excerpt explains this idea: “Get on back, you little pup. Fifty-nine's just round the next bend. Take your whip and tar him. Or I'll tar you proper.”. <u>ANSWER TO THIRD QUESTION</u>: Their relationship changes over the narrative and helps develop it. At the beginning, their relationship seems distant maybe because of John’s fears. His father only gives him instructions and do not pay much attention to John. Towards the end, John’s character changes a little after his fight and starts communicating with his father a bit more maybe because his father noticed how his son has overcome his fears and became a stronger man or a bully as his father. The author refers to John’s transformation or change in attitude in the final dialogue of John with George: “G: "Where's your whip?" J: "I guess I left it a while back. I guess it was in that kind of scrummage we had. I guess it needs a heavier whip anyhow. <em>I guess </em><u><em>a man couldn't spare the time going back for it</em></u><em>.</em>" G: "Sure," said George.”

Does Samuel Sewall appeal more to logic or to emotion in "The Selling of Joseph: A Memorial"? Back up your response with evidenc
schepotkina [342]

It has logic and emotion, but mostly logic.  His logic is very clear that if you follow the bible you shouldn't condemned slavery and killings of hundred of people. When practicing the bible and being christians one has to act like christ and follow the teachings of him and the bible.  They cannot prove Joseph's enslavement as wrong, but still enslave people who were like Joseph. In it Sewall not only condemns the practice of human trafficking, but goes on to challenge many common slave owners held  the practice of enslavement and yet still be followers of God. He uses Joseph as example to bring light to what they are doing wrong. Sewall also cites several Biblical passages which Sewall uses to make a of the practice of man stealing. Using logic is very clear in his writing about people just choosing to ignore themselves on being a hypocrite and make them question their own strong held belief.
