Read this excerpt from Anne Frank Remembered. People in the office asked to see Anne's diary. My answer was always "No. It's not

right. Even though it's the writings of a child, it's hers and it's her secret. I'll only return it back into her hands, and her hands alone." I was haunted by the fact that some more of Anne's pages remained cast around on the floor in the hiding place. I was afraid to go back up there, as Silberbauer had already checked on me several times. He'd just pop his head in, saying, "I'm just making sure you haven't gone." I said nothing by way of reply. He'd seen what he wanted, that I hadn't gone anywhere. He'd turn and leave. I was afraid to go behind the bookcase again. It was very hard for me to look at the rooms with the people gone. I couldn't face going back upstairs. Which line from the passage supports the theme "People’s possessions deserve respect”?

Read the excerpt from Enrique’s Journey. Two gangsters had overheard his description and kicked him mercilessly. "Next time, we
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The excerpt from Enrique’s Journey tells a story about what happened to one victim, and “Children of the Drug Wars” uses words that create an emotional response to persuade readers to take action.

Explanation:

Sonia Nazario's "Enrique's Journey" revolves around the journey that a young boy Enrique undertook to be united with his mother. The perilous journey led him through many unfortunate encounters which shows how people like Enrique had to endure to get safely to America illegally.

Damon Barrett's "Children of the Drug Wars" presents the all too familiar scenario of what children have to endure and encounter in their lives during the war with drugs and how it has an impact on them and their future lives.

While the <u>excerpt from "Enrique's Journey" tells of a single victim, the latter excerpt uses words to create an appealing emotional response to persuade readers to take action.</u> Enrique's encounter with the gangsters terrified him so much that he asked to be deported. On the other hand, the speaker of the latter book asks for children of drug wars to be allowed to be taken as refugees so that they need not <em>"make the perilous journey north alone"</em>.

Which statement correctly compares and contrasts My Story and "On the Bus with Rosa Parks"?
KatRina [158]

The right answer is “Both the memoir and the poem are about Rosa Parks, but the poem talks more about her personal feelings.” Rosa Parks was an American activist in the civil rights movement. She is known for her essential role in the Montgomery bus boycott. In December 1955, she disallowed bus driver James F. Blake's order to surrender her seat in the "colored section" to a white passenger, after the whites-only section was full. “On the Bus with Rosa Parks” is one of several sections in Dove’s book that gives voice to Rosa Parks. The use her, female voices in her poem can be outlined to Dove’s own life experiences, reflection of her own actions and emotions in times where black people were ignored, infringed upon and usually abused.

What is the best description of the weather in Moingona, Iowa, during the days leading up to the train crash that occurred there
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The best description of the weather in Moingona, Iowa before the train crash is Option C: There was very heavy rain, which caused Honey Creek to rise and flood.

Explanation:

This train accident occurred on the afternoon of July 6, 1881. There had been heavy thunderstorms that caused flash flooding and this washed out the timbers of the railway trestle that crossed Honey Creek. A locomotive was sent from Moingona to check track conditions. It fell into Honey Creek with a crew of four men on board.  

A young adolescent of about 16 years old Kate Shelley heard the crash and also thought of a passenger train that would be heading the same route.  She found two survivors and went to get help, traveling a long distance to sound the alarm and risking her own safety by crossing another bridge on her hands and knees.  She is considered a heroine and has a bridge named after her.
