50 POINTS !!!!!!!!! What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?

Everywhere you look, advertisements tempt you to eat more junk food. It may be tasty, but junk food can be harmful to a person’s health. Most of the food items are fried and high in sugar and fat. Various studies have shown that eating high amounts of junk food can cause obesity, high cholesterol, liver and heart problems, and even issues in concentration. Journals have released articles showing the addictive nature of this kind of food and its harmful effects on children. It is a better idea to eat junk food in moderation. There’s nothing wrong with a slice of pizza every now and then, but healthy habits are better!

A.
to persuade people to remove junk food from schools
B.
to inform people about the harmful effects of junk food
C.
to entertain people with stories about advertising
D.
to express the writer’s love for junk foods

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The bolded words are "dreary", and "weary".

Read the following passage from Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven.” Which sound device is expressed by the bolded words?

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered,
weak and weary …


A. alliteration


B. rhythm


C. refrain


D. rhyme

Answers

Answer:

D. Rhyme

Explanation:

Since the bolded words are dreary and weary it seems like the best fit.  

Answer:

D. rhyme

Explanation:

Rhyme

As you know, words that rhyme end with a similar sound. Rhyme and time, beat and heat, and friends and trends are all examples of rhyming words.

“Mary Had a Little Lamb” has only two rhyming words. Both come at the end of a line of verse.

As in rap lyrics, the use of rhyming in lyric poetry can be very elaborate. As you will see in “The Raven,” rhyming words can come at the end of lines of verse (end rhyme), or they can be located within one or more lines of verse (internal rhyme).

This time as you read “The Raven,” pay particular attention to the rhyming words. How many sets of rhymes does Poe use? Where are the rhymes within the poem?

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,

Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—

While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,

As of some one gently rapping—rapping at my chamber door.

"'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door—

Only this and nothing more."

Look at the words in bold. Did you find all three rhyming sets?

“dreary” and “weary”

“lore,” “door,” and “more”

“napping,” “tapping,” and “rapping”

Remember: rhyming can occur at the end of lines, such as with the rhyming set “lore, door, more.” They can also be internal rhymes that occur within the sentence structure, such as “dreary” and “weary,” and “napping,” “tapping,” and “rapping.”

Rhyming is another sound device that gives lyric poetry its musical quality.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,

Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—

While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,

As of some one gently rapping—rapping at my chamber door.

"'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door—

Only this and nothing more."

In a well-constructed paragraph, explain how the creature compares and contrasts his situation to Adam’s. (In the biblical creation story, God creates and cares for Adam.) Use evidence from Volume II, Chapter 2 of Gris Grimly's Frankenstein in your answer.

200-300 Words

Answers

Answer: In contrast to his creature, Victor Frankenstein is all-powerful, capable of "trampling him to ashes," while still calling him to repentance for all his murders (sins) Dr. Victor, his Creator, is seen by the Creature as the one who interacts with him by offering his life, and he embraces whatever Mr. Frankenstein tries to do with him. He will, however, exact vengeance on Frankenstein's remaining associates. It's plain that God and Job aren't an ideal match. God chooses to leave the Devil in charge of all evil in Job's world, according to the Bible. Even though Job and Frankenstein's creature are vastly different, this chapter depicts an almighty and noble Victor and a submissive creature, sinner

why do people bully so bad.an why not take up for others? of a essay.

Answers

Answer:Bullying is wrong because its victims experience not only a difficult time to focus on school work but, also in keeping their up and staying alive. Bullies don 't notice how deep their actually impacting their victims life 's. There are various ways that a person can be bullied. If you make someone feel inferior to you or you 're making them feel intimidated by you that, is considered bullying. In the article, make a sound for a voice unheard the author states that “more than 160,000 kids stay home from school each day to avoid being bullied.” Students hate their aggressor so much they have a hard time focusing on school work because their just thinking of how to get rid of being bullied.Bully 's need to understand that it 's okay not to like a certain person but it is not okay to try and make their life miserable just to show or feel superior to them. Vitim 's can experience long-term effects, including low self-esteem and for them to cut themselves. Some bullies might just do it to make a joke and have fun, but they don 't see how much they are truly damaging and breaking this person apart on the inside. To the bullied teen out there, you must have confidence and stand up for who you are. Do not feel superior, you need to fight back correctly; walk away when it is happening then you must trust and go tell an adult, they will help you get rid of the bully. There are always two types of bystanders, one who acts and looks for help either because you can 't or because they don 't trust or don 't have enough confidence to go and tell an adult; and the other who sees a person being bullied but acts like her or she didn 't see or hear anything. I know bystanders might think to themselves that they don 't want to get involved in any problems, but you won 't you 'll just the bullies victims hero.Why is bullying wrong, when it feels great to feel superior to someone, to feel like you have a little servant. The real question is why do you need to have that feeling inside of you, do you not get enough attention at home, do you feel like your parents don 't care or pay as much attention to you as you wish do you want to feel what being a bully feels like, do you really want to make someone 's life so miserable that they hate you so much that they can attempt to kill themselves or even to kill you? I have previously bullied and I can say it 's not worth it. In the long run, it doesn 't matter if you feel superior if you feel popular or if people look up to you, because as time passes you realize the deep damage you have done. The fact that, that person dropped her self-esteem so low that she had no friends and started wearing all black and her hair in her face because she wanted nobody to see her, because her self-esteem was so low, and she had to wear tons of bracelets because she wanted nobody to see how much she 's cut herself.

Read this excerpt from the article "Clemente's Impact Wanes in Puerto Rico 40 Years after His Death."
In the days that followed, as Clemente's death was accepted as reality, a photo of his 7-year-old son Roberto Jr. kissing a poster with his father's picture became as heart-wrenching and iconic in Puerto Rico as the image of JFK Jr. saluting his father's coffin was in the U.S.

Which is the best source to use to enhance the information in this excerpt?
A) a magazine article about JFK Jr.
B) a copy of the image of Clemente’s son
C) a website describing Puerto Rican photographers
D) an almanac entry about Clemente’s baseball career

Answers

Answer:

I would say B

Explanation:

As we can see A and D do not make sense with the authors purpose of this article, it doesn't make sense to describe one person with evidence and not the other. Photographers are great, but C doesn't relate to the text. The texts main focus is on Clementes son and how he reacted to his fathers death!

Hope this sort of helped!

Therefore, B is most reasonable.

WHAT TO THE SLAVE IS THE FOURTH OF JULY?
By Frederick Douglass
Extract from an Oration, at Rochester, July 5, 1852

Fellow-Citizens—Pardon me, and allow me to ask, why am I called upon to speak here to-day? What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence? Are the great principles of political freedom and of natural justice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us? and am I, therefore, called upon to bring our humble offering to the national altar, and to confess the benefits, and express devout gratitude for the blessings, resulting from your independence to us?

But, such is not the state of the case. I say it with a sad sense of the disparity between us. I am not included within the pale of this glorious anniversary! Your high independence only reveals the immeasurable distance between us. The blessings in which you this day rejoice, are not enjoyed in common. The rich inheritance of justice, liberty, prosperity, and independence, bequeathed by your fathers, is shared by you, not by me. The sunlight that brought life and healing to you, has brought stripes and death to me. This Fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn. To drag a man in fetters into the grand illuminated temple of liberty, and call upon him to join you in joyous anthems, were inhuman mockery and sacrilegious irony. Do you mean, citizens, to mock me, by asking me to speak to-day? ...

Fellow-citizens, above your national, tumultuous joy, I hear the mournful wail of millions, whose chains, heavy and grievous yesterday, are to-day rendered more intolerable by the jubilant shouts that reach them. If I do forget, if I do not faithfully remember those bleeding children of sorrow this day, "may my right hand forget her cunning, and may my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth!" To forget them, to pass lightly over their wrongs, and to chime in with the popular theme, would be treason most scandalous and shocking, and would make me a reproach before God and the world. My subject, then, fellow-citizens, is AMERICAN SLAVERY. I shall see this day and its popular characteristics from the slave's point of view. Standing there, identified with the American bondman, making his wrongs mine, I do not hesitate to declare, with all my soul, that the character and conduct of this nation never looked blacker to me than on this Fourth of July. Whether we turn to the declarations of the past, or to the professions of the present, the conduct of the nation seems equally hideous and revolting.

Why does Douglass say he feels distanced from the people to whom he is speaking? (5 points)

They have families, and he does not.
They identify with free people, and he identifies with slaves.
They have personally insulted him that morning.
They did not want him to speak at all.

Answers

Answer:

They identify with free people, and he identifies with slaves.

Explanation:

In the excerpt shown above, we can see how Frederick Douglass says it is disrespectful to be invited to speak to an audience of white people about the freedom of the 4th of July, when his people (the black people) do not have access to freedom . Douglass reinforces the idea that he has no reason to celebrate, because those with whom he identifies are enslaved and are not celebrating, but suffering. So there is no freedom in America as long as blacks are in prison and Douglass as a black man does not identify with the audience that is listening to him.
