Seven-year-old Sangram is not allowed to touch the TV remote. Nevertheless, he uses the remote to change the volume from level 1

5 to 17. His parents, who are in the next room, seem unaware. The next day, Sangram becomes bold and turns the volume from level 15 to 30. His father yells at him, "Stop playing with the remote!" What prevented Sangram’s father from noticing the volume change on the previous day?

Answer:

It was only 2 units up.

Explanation:

A small increase in the volume would no alert the father of Sangram who is one room away, because that change would only be noticeable for Sangram who is in the same room, but when he doubled the volume from 15 to 30, it was more obvious for his father, one room away, that Sangram was using the remote control and that he was changing the volume in the TV.

Read this excerpt from We’ve Got a Job: The 1963 Children’s March.
Aleks [24]

Answer: to reveal the challenges of social activism

This is the most accurate answer. In this excerpt, the author does not describe a routine action. The event was an anomaly in the lives of African Americans. The author also does not talk about the actions of police forces, as the father gave in without the intervention of the police. Finally, the author does not actually describe the pride the author feels for her father. What the excerpt shows is the challenges of social activism, and the judgement that activists faced when trying to do the right thing.

Smith thinks the privilege of congressional immunity is ironic because it?
Gemiola [76]

In line with Margaret Chase Smith's <em>Declaration of Conscience (1950), </em>the privilege of congressional immunity is described as an irony. Margaret posits that it is an irony that senators can in a debate, in the senate, impute to any American, who is not a senator, any legal action and having any legal redress against them but they can not do the same against any individual pertaining to the Senate. In other words, Senators found themselves with the power to verbally attack anyone without restraint and with full protection but ironically they are prevented from doing so among them. She describes this event as an abuse of individual power and privilege.

"Provisional drivers could each save up to £500 on their car insurance by undertaking advanced driving lessons," the government has confirmed. "We want people to go on improving their driving skills throughout their driving careers," said David Ashworth, a junior minister at the Department for Transport. "This is about creating the right sort of education and incentivising people to do it."

Explanation:

<u>Inverted commas are also known as quotation marks. Their purpose is to indicate which words or sentences inside that structure were spoken by someone. We place a pair of inverted commas at the beginning of that person's speech, and another one at the ending. If the speech is interrupted by the author's words, the inverted commas can simply be placed again once the speech is resumed.</u>
