Read the passage from “Initiation.” It would be rather fun for a change, Millicent mused, getting her books out of her locker in

the hall, rather exciting to be part of a closely knit group, the exclusive set at Lansing High. Of course, it wasn't a school organization. In fact, the principal, Mr. Cranton, wanted to do away with initiation week altogether, because he thought it was undemocratic and disturbed the routine of school work. But there wasn't really anything he could do about it. Sure, the girls had to come to school for five days without any lipstick on and without curling their hair, and of course everybody noticed them, but what could the teachers do?

I would say to show the school's disapproval with "initiation week" and to perhaps foreshadow a ban on the practice altogether

The author probably included information about the reactions of the principal and teachers to create a divergence of views. Once the students were positive the week of initiation, the principal and teachers showed themselves to be negative. This shows the difference of opinions between different generations and different mindsets.

In what ways can names be empowering?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Empower means to be confident and strong in life and claiming their rights.

Names can be empowering in many ways as sometimes names give you the confidence or power of doing something in which your name is based on. For example - if a girl name "Trudy", it is a German name which means “spear of strength”. Whenever a person feels depressed or non-powerful, their names can make them remember and give strength to become like the name they got.

Names can be limiting as well that bounds a person in its boundaries and limit themselves to open up. Sometimes, the negative meaning name gives negative values to the person and limit their capabilities of empowerment.

<u>In class we can follow the following steps that our names are always empowering and never limiting:</u>

  • Find the positive meaning of their own names.
  • To conduct an activity in which every student randomly say a few positive words for each other based on their names.

The first line says "secure", which rhymes with the word "sure" (this is at the end of the second line). The word at the end of the third line is "keeps", which rhymes with the word of the forth line, "sleeps".

 Hope this is what you're looking ford!:D

Choose the correct standard usage for this sentence: “The town is fifteen miles _____.”
skad [1K]
Farther. Further is metaphorical, using "farther" in this case because <span>“farther” has the word “far” in it, and “far” obviously relates to physical distance. Therefore the town is fifteen minutes farther up the road </span>
