WESTRIDGE, Ohio — More than 600 transportation employees went on strike at midnight last night after their demand for a 10% pay

increase was rejected by local government officials. The strike affects all bus and rail services throughout Westridge and the neighboring communities of Turlock, Smithfield, and Lowell Grove.
“We hoped we would not be forced to strike, but until our demands are met, we really have no choice,” said Wanda Thompson, a representative of the Transportation Employees Union. “We simply don’t get paid what we deserve.”
Members of the Westridge City Council see the situation differently. “Our employees already earn 6% more than the state average for similar transportation jobs,” said Raoul Cobian, President of the Westridge City Council.
Hopefully the two groups can come to an agreement soon and bring this unnecessary strike to an end.

Explain how this comment characterizes mr. wolfsheim: "i understand you're looking for a business gonnegtion."
asambeis [7]
This statement characterizes Mr Wolfsheim through a clearly described accent. Instead of using the word "connection", he pronounces is "gonnegtion" which shows that he doesn't pronounce his 'c's correctly. This just gives him a unique characterization, helping the reader understand what he speaks like.

Arada [10]
<span>The question is asking us to re-write the sentence "Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race was won by him last weekend. " The options are the following: 1) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race had been won by him last weekend. - there is no need for the past perfect, as the first sentence is in a present tense 2) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and he won the race last weekend. - this is the best option, there is no problem with it; 3)Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and he win the race last weekend. i - this is grammatically wrong as we need a past tense in the last part; 4) Mustafa is an excellent long-distance runner, and the race was win by him last weekend - this is also wrong as you would have to say "was won"</span>

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>.

In at least one hundred words, discuss Cervantes’s Don Quixote can be seen as an example of an allegory. Use evidence from the t
snow_tiger [21]
I would say:
Our knight lives optimistically in a fictitious, idealistic past. Sancho withal aspires to a better life that he hopes to gain through accommodating as a squire. Their adventures are ecumenically illusory. Numerous well-bred characters relish and even nurture these illusions. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza live out a fairy tale.Virtually all these characters are of noble birth and mystically enchanted with excellent appearance and manners, concretely the women. And everything turns out for the best, all of the time. And so, once again, they live out a fairly tale. Here we have a miniature fairy tale within a more immensely colossal fairy tale. Outside of the fairy tale, perhaps, we have the down-to-earth well-meaning villagers of La Mancha and a couple of distant scribes, one of whom we ourselves read, indirectly. I struggle to understand the standpoint of the narrator. Is the novel contrasting a day-to-day and mundane authenticity with the grandiose pursuits of the world's elites? This seems to be the knight's final clientele. As for reading the novel as an allegory of Spain, perhaps, albeit why constrain it to Spain?


I hope this helps!!!!
