Answer:

<u>Option c. Based on the excerpt, it can be inferred that Stanley's character is respectful.</u>

Explanation:

By reading the excerpt from "Holes" it can be inferred that Stanley's character is respectful, as when being asked a question and answering it, he quickly adds the words "Mr. Sir" in order to show respect towards the man that just talked to him. The phrase" then hastily added" reinforces that Stanley is kind and respectful towards others.

"Holes" is a young-adult novel written by American author Louis Sachar, and first published on August 20th, 1998. It tells the story of Stanley, a young boy whose family has been cursed a hundred years ago by a one-legged gypsy. The plot not only tells Stanley's family story but also his own, as he arrives to a juvenile detention facility that will shape his character and change him completely.

Read the passage from When Birds Get Flu and Cows Go Mad! by John DiConsiglio.
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

In the first paragraph, the author explains the amount of cows Japan and most European nations test, making the reader recognize that there is a sense of accomplishment for those specific countries and nations. But when the author moves on to paragraph two, the transition used is the word "But". This immediately makes the reader think that there is an under-lying problem or there is a downside to the facts before this paragraph.

I hope this helped~!

Read the excerpt from Roosevelt’s State of the Union address and the poster below it. Fortunately, there are only a few American
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The speech is a direct reminder to Americans that they can contribute to the war effort by helping to send food abroad to feed troops and Allied forces. The reference is rather direct and appeals directly to the American appetite, asking people to keep the war effort in mind even when considering the menu.

The poster only focuses on farming and, while it may also indirectly contribute to food production and the amount sent overseas, does not address the war effort directly.

What similarities do Doodle and the scarlet ibis have? Check all that apply. Both are beautiful in their own way. Both struggle
Stells [14]
Below are the answers:

<span>Both are beautiful in their own way. 

</span><span>Both struggle in their environment.

</span><span> Both are rare and unusual.

Doodle and the Scarlet Ibis are comparable in that both are uncommon and delicate creatures. Wonderful in their own specific manner, yet strangely unique and uncommon. The Ibis is red and at last, Doodle is left in a contorted stance like the Ibis and he, as well, is red with blood. 
The winged creature is indigenous to the tropics and does not have a place where he is, and Doodle can't satisfy his sibling's gauges of what a sibling ought to be. The demise of Doodle and the ibis have a few likenesses. They both pass on due in part to a tempest. They both are red after death.</span>
