Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars." By sending these children away, "you are handing them a death sentence," says

José Arnulfo Ochoa Ochoa, an expert in Honduras with World Vision International, a Christian humanitarian aid group. This abrogates international conventions we have signed and undermines our credibility as a humane country. It would be a disgrace if this wealthy nation turned its back on the 52,000 children who have arrived since October, many of them legitimate refugees. The underlined words and phrases have strong negative connotations. How do they support the author's purpose?

Answer:

(a) draw attention to the opinion that the United States is not doing enough to help these children

Explanation:

From the excerpt of the book <em>Children of the Drug Wars</em>, the author Damon Barret discusses the impact the war on drugs and drugs, in general, had on the children.

From the underlined words <u>By sending these children away, you are handing them a death sentence</u> it shows that the United States government is not doing enough to help the children by sending them away and it would undermine the credibility as a humane country.

Read this paragraph. 1. Zoos are needed to protect animals. 2. The Wildlife Conservation Society has worked hard to create more
poizon [28]

Answer:

b. Sentence 6

Explanation:

I'm assuming that your question is asking about which sentence is proof that zoos are needed to protect animals, because that seems to be the main idea of this paragraph.

If that's the case, I think that the answer would be b. (Sentence 6) Many zoos have breeding programs that allow species to multiply and thrive. Those breeding programs would help protect animals (such as endangered species) because those programs would give those animals a safe habitat to live and expand their population once again so they don't die off.

hope this helps :)

This is all for the poem "To His Coy Mistress" They're all short answers.
serg [7]
<span>1) The speaker pleads with his mistress to let him touch her and to lose her virginity to him.
  2) She is being coy because they aren't married, and being sexually involved with him would stain her honor as a woman.
  3) If they lived for eons, it would be OK for her to put him off. He would use the eons to love her from a distance. But their lives are short. Therefore, she should enjoy physical love with him.
  4) Vegetable love wouldn't be physically active like an animal; it would grow in one place instead.
  5) "Like amorous birds of prey, rather at once our time devour" describes a fierce, active, physical love.
 6) "Roll all our strength and all our sweetness up into one ball" suggests they should be so close they are one.
 7) "Deserts of vast eternity" don't contain any physical satisfaction.
 8) The sun stands for time. Time will pass and they will die; they have no control over that. This is expressed by "we cannot make our sun stand still". 9) The poet urges her to "carpe diem" or "seize the day".
  10) Acting on physical desire means being truly alive for him.</span>
