The best answer is A) Reverent

This excerpt refers to the American Revolution (Columbia was often a way of referring to America at the time). The tone is reverent, meaning admiring or adoring. She describes the celestial choir enthroned in realms of light, which paints an almost god-like picture of the Revolution and the values that the Americans were fighting for.

Based on the Venn diagram, which statements could accurately be used within a compare-and-contrast paragraph about farmers and v
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

<u>Answer:</u>

A. a lot of travel is not typically required for a farmer; similarly, a lot of traveling for work is not generally required of veterinarians.

C. Veterinarians and farmers both work with animals, although in different ways.  

D. Job opportunities for farmers are declining, while job opportunities for veterinarians are rising.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a <u>Venn diagram</u>, two circles denote two sets of information, with different characteristics. Their area of intersection, however, represents the qualities that they both share, or their common grounds.

Based on this it can be said that the farmers and veterinarians share two common grounds - "work and care for animals" and "very little travel involved." The latter makes option A correct.

The correctness of option C (Veterinarians and farmers both work with animals, although in different ways) is because of two reasons: according to the Venn diagram, they both share "work and care for animals," but, each of them also have different characteristics of work mentioned as "produce crops and dairy products" for the farmers and "often work in private clinics" for the veterinarians, which also makes their work different.

It can be seen from the uncommon zones of the circles that for the farmers, the job opportunities are declining, while they are rising in case of the veterinarians, which proves the correctness of option D.

2.PART B: Which passage from the text best supports the answer to Part A?A“They can’t leave the house alone; they’re not educate
Natalija [7]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

'Why Afghanistan’s ‘Underground Girls’ Skirt  Tradition to Live as Boys' is an interview taken by NPR of Jenny Nordberg, who wrote about <em>bacha posh</em> in Afghanistan. The central idea presented in the text is that by making girls dressed as boys, girls and women in Afghanistan are more oppressed and controlled.

The statement that best supports this central idea is statement from paragraph 1, <em>"They can’t leave the house alone; they’re not educated; and they’re dressed in clothes that conceal them." </em>By concealing the true identity of girls in childhood, the society of Afghanistan tend to control them.

Therefore, option A is correct.

Which sentence contains an intensive pronoun? A) Tanya always talks to herself. B) If you cannot help, I will do it myself. C) T
dezoksy [38]
To best answer this question, we must first clarify what an intensive pronoun is.

Intensive pronouns are reflexive pronoun used to add emphasis to a sentence. As a result, an intensive pronoun is not necessary to the meaning of the sentence. Intensive pronouns are the same as reflexive pronouns: myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves.

Every sentence given above contains reflexive pronouns, but not all of them are intensive pronouns.

In the first sentence, "herself" is a reflexive pronoun. However, it IS essential to the meaning of the sentence. Talking to herself is different than talking to others. Therefore, sentence A. does NOT contain an intensive pronoun.

In the second sentence, "myself" is NOT essential to the meaning of the sentence. If the word "myself' were eliminated from the sentence, the meaning of the sentence would remain the same. There, sentence B. does contain an intensive pronoun.

In the third sentence, the word "themselves" is essential to the meaning of the sentence. If the word "themselves" were eliminated, the meaning of the sentence would not remain the same, because we need to know they went alone (as opposed to going with their parents). As a result, sentence C. does NOT contain an intensive pronoun.

Finally, in the fourth sentence, the word "himself" is necessary to the sentence so that the reader knows just WHO Andy is looking at in the mirror. If this pronoun were removed, the meaning of the sentence would change. As a result, sentence D. does NOT contain an intensive pronoun.

Therefore, the sentence that contains an intensive pronoun is B.

How to solve 34×17 using an area model
Sonja [21]
The main idea behind area model is to crack multiplication of 2 larger numbers in sum of several easier to calculate multiplications of smaller numbers. Each multiplication of those smaller numbers is represented by part of the area in the picture.
So, we can write down number 34 as sum of 30 and 4 and number 17 as sum of 10 and 7.

Going further we can write down:
34*17=(30+4)*(10*7)=30*10+30*7+4*10+4*7=578

Which literary device is most clearly used in this passage?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Your answer would be that the literary device used in the passage is an analogy.

Explanation:

In the passage above, the author has used the literary device called analogy. An analogy is a comparison in which a thing or an idea is compared to another thing which is a little different from it. Its purpose is to explain the original idea by comparing it to something that is familiar. In this case, a relationship is compared to the way the stock market works. The author explains that both of them have ups and downs and that, in both cases, you only get what you put into them.
