1. What do paragraphs 65-72 reveal about the kids'
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is The kids realize that the rain is less enjoyable than the sun.

Explanation:

It seems that the kids haven't seen the Sun in a very long time, years even. They are living underground on Venus and they have been for years. So in this moment, they finally see the Sun and all run outside to play and have fun and soak in the warmth after such a long time.

However, their happiness doesn't last long as it starts pouring rain and they have to go back to the underground house, understanding they will have to wait another seven years for the Sun to appear again.

Here is the entire excerpt:

<em>A few cold drops fell on their noses and their cheeks and their mouths. The sun faded behind a stir of mist. A wind blew cool around them. They turned and started to walk back toward the underground house, their hands at their sides, their smiles vanishing away.</em>

In the sixth sentence of the third paragraph (“She campaigned . . . and to her”), the author uses the dash primarily to
nlexa [21]

Answer: A.) stress a significant connection

Explanation: The author discusses her mother’s election in order to stress the commonality between her mother’s priorities and those of the Wyoming voters who elected her, an important piece of evidence for her argument. In this sentence, the author strategically inserts a dash between the phrases “to Wyoming people” and “and to her.” By creating a significant pause between the two phrases, the dash effectively emphasizes the phrase following the dash (“and to her”), allowing the author to underscore the convergence between her mother’s values and those of her supporters.

1. Select the theme that would be expressed best in the story idea below.
Dimas [21]

Some individuals miss a great deal in life because they are afraid to try new things.

The camping trip is new to the city boys since it is their first trip. Also, since the boys are described as being from the city, we know that being outside in the wilderness could also be new. One of the boys chooses not to take part in any of the typical camping activities. This shows that he is afraid to try something new and therefore misses out.

Some individuals get into a lot of trouble because they try too many new things.

This story idea deals with Heather doing something that could have been a good idea, but because of the weather, it turned out to be bad. We do not see any evidence that she's afraid to try something new, that she has a childlike side to her personality, or that adults are not taking young people seriously.
