Explanation:
"You just don’t understand," she said, as Maggie and I came out to the car.
"What don’t I understand?" I wanted to know.
"Your heritage," she said.
What does Dee mean when she says Mama doesn’t understand their heritage? Explain what culture means to Dee and to Mama.
Answer:
Dee believes that Mama and Maggie don't appreciate their heritage and culture as much as she does because they occasionally use family items that Dee feels should be preserved.
Explanation:
Dee has contrasting views with Mama and Maggie about heritage as Dee believes it is something of the past that should be revered and hung on a place to display or doing something artistic with it but Mama and Dee are of the opinion that things of heritage should be used to honor them by keeping them alive
Answer:
Alice Walker’s “Everyday Use” shows the relationship between an African-American mother and her two daughters, Dee and Maggie. While the mother and Maggie embrace their simple life, Dee has rejected her heritage and has turned to a different set of beliefs that she thinks truly define her cultural identity. These opposing attitudes are reflected in their views about the family quilts.
In the story, Dee’s mother recounts an incident where they argued over a set of ancestral quilts. While Dee insists she’ll keep the old quilts made by their grandmothers, Mama prefers to give them to her younger daughter, Maggie. Dee protests that Maggie will never understand the true value of the quilts, insisting:
"Maggie can't appreciate these quilts!" she said. "She'd probably be backward enough to put them to everyday use."
Dee argues such quilts should be seen as artifacts. For Dee, her upbringing and its culture is something that should be displayed as “art” in her home and not used.
On the other hand, the mother remembers how those quilts were made and uses them with love and care. She believes they should be used every day to celebrate the family’s heritage and stay connected to family traditions and beliefs. Therefore, the two women have very different views on the definition of their heritage and how to respect and celebrate it.

What does the quote “He could feel it on his neck, still, like a hot paw” reveal about Mr. Hadley’s memory of the veldt (Paragraph 65)? (see paragraph below). Think about how this foreshadowing plays an event on Mr. Hadley's thoughts and feelings
As for the nursery, thought George Hadley, it won’t hurt for the children to be locked out of it awhile. Too much of anything isn’t good for anyone. And it was clearly indicated that the children had been spending a little too much time on Africa. That sun. He could feel it on his neck, still, like a hot paw. And the lions. And the smell of blood. Remarkable how the nursery caught the telepathic emanations of the children’s minds and created life to fill their every desire. The children thought lions, and there were lions. The children thought zebras, and there were zebras. Sun — sun. Giraffes — giraffes. Death and death.
Answer: Kinda like he’s still traumatizer or has a bad feeling about the nursery.
Explanation: The author is explaining “and the smell of blood.” Indicating that he still remains unsure about how real things seemed.

Should Instagram and other social media sites display exactly how many “likes” a post receives? Write a paragraph arguing whether counting “likes” has a more positive or negative impact on users NEED HELP ASAP
Answer: Yes, Instagram should display exactly how many "likes" a post receives because if they were to remove the likes, that may be terrible for the emerging artists that are on Instagram. The number of likes typically displayed under users posts might no longer be visible but it isn't completely gone from the app.
Explanation:
Positive or Negative Impact?
Answer: Yes
Explanation:
Yes, I anticipate that social media should display exactly how many "likes" a post receives because if they were to remove the likes, that may be terrible for the emerging artists that are on social media. The number of likes typically displayed under user's posts might make the artist stressed or freaked out because they don't know if their job is doing well or not. Therefore, I think it takes a very positive impact on users. Another reason for which I stand with this opinion is that users that are on social media feel like their day was made when people show that they care about them by liking. In conclusion, I stand with likes on social media having a positive impact on users and believe it will stay this way as long as there is no dislike button!
Decide whether the following is a simile, metaphor, or neither.
white as a white cow's milk
Answer:
SIMILE
Explanation:
This is a simile because when a statement contains the words 'like' or 'as' then it is not possible to be a metaphor.
For example:
A metaphor would sound something like: The snow is a white blanket.
There is no like or as in the statement so its not a simile

When Ralph wonders what would become of the group if he
gave up on trying to maintain leadership, how does Piggy
respond? What does this indicate about the importance of
Piggy's role?
LORD OF THE FLIES
Explanation:
Ralph hides in the jungle and thinks miserably about the chaos that has overrun the island. He thinks about the deaths of Simon and Piggy and realizes that all vestiges of civilization have been stripped from the island. He stumbles across the sow’s head, the Lord of the Flies, now merely a gleaming white skull—as white as the conch shell, he notes. Angry and disgusted, Ralph knocks the skull to the ground and takes the stake it was impaled on to use as a weapon against Jack.
Identification: After Lord Capulet sees Juliet “dead," he says,
Death is my son-in-law, Death is my heir;
My daughter he hath wedded.
What type of figurative language is the above an example of?
Answer:
These lines are an example of a metaphor.
Explanation:
These words that Lord Capulet says when seeing his daughter dead, refer to death figuratively through the use of a metaphor.
It is important that we do not confuse metaphor with simile, since it is very common for us to be confused because they are very similar. The difference is that a simile compares two things using words like "like" or "as". In a metaphor, two things are compared but without the use of those words.
There is a more implicit connection where an attempt is made to make a deeper and meaningful comparison.
In this case we have phrases like Juliet "has married death" or "death is my heir". When what the author wanted to say was: "my daughter is dead" and "I will have no heirs".

Which of these passages is an example of a functional text?
Passage 1
Circulatory systems are vital to every organism. In some, this system is simple. For example, in earthworms, the "heart" is just five branching blood vessels near the worm's head. The worm's heart does not pump; instead, blood and fluid move through the worm as it moves through the soil. The octopus, a more complex animal, has three hearts because its main heart does not pump strongly. Humans only have one heart that is divided into four chambers. These chambers separate oxygen-rich blood from blood rich in carbon dioxide. Regardless of its size, the circulatory performs many important jobs.
Passage 2
Ptolemy commences with laying down the undoubted truth that the shape of the earth is globular. The proofs which he gives of this fundamental fact are quite satisfactory; they are indeed the same proofs as we give today. There is, first of all, the well-known circumstance of which our books on geography remind us, that when an object is viewed at a distance across the sea, the lower part of the object appears cut off by the interposing curved mass of water.
(from Great Astronomers by Robert Stawell Ball)
Passage 3
[Miss Havisham] was dressed in rich materials—satins, and lace, and silks—all of white. Her shoes were white. And she had a long white veil dependent from her hair, and she had bridal flowers in her hair, but her hair was white. Some bright jewels sparkled on her neck and on her hands, and some other jewels lay sparkling on the table. Dresses, less splendid than the dress she wore, and half-packed trunks, were scattered about…
(from Great Expectations by Charles Dickens)
Passage 4
First, learn and observe all posted safety instructions and adhere to all general safety guidelines. This includes knowing where fire extinguishers are located and maintaining an immaculate and orderly work station. To use a fire extinguisher correctly, follow the steps described in PASS: 1: Pull the pin; 2: Aim at the base of the fire; 3: Squeeze the top handle or lever; 4: Sweep from side to side. Following these instructions can help extinguish a fire quickly and safely.

D Mike begins to think the nursing home staff are abusing his grandmother.
Answer:
Mike's point of view is affect by his grandmother's greeting in the sense that:
B Mike realizes that something is off in his grandmother’s behavior.
Explanation:
In the story "The Moustache" by Richard Cormier, Mike visits his grandmother at a nursing home. She welcomes him with such joy and brightness that he is, at first, relieved. He was afraid it would be one of those days when she couldn't recognize him. However, after a moment, he realizes there is something off in her behavior. He cannot put his finger on it, though. He does not know if she is just happy to be lucid, or if she has been feeling lonely:
I was beginning to feel uneasy, because she regarded me with such intensity. Those bright eyes. I wondered -- are old people in place like this so lonesome, so abandoned that they go wild when someone visits? Or was she so happy because she was suddenly lucid and everything was sharp and clear? My mother had described those moments when my grandmother suddenly emerged from the fog that so often obscured her mind. I didn't know the answers, but it felt kind of spooky, getting such an emotional welcome from her.
Answer:
B. Mike realizes that something is off in his grandmother’s behavior.

Explanation:
Read the excerpt from The Code Book.
During the late 1980s, working from his home in Boulder, Colorado, Zimmermann gradually pieced together his scrambling software package. His main goal was to speed up RSA encryption. Ordinarily, if Alice wants to use RSA to encrypt a message to Bob, she looks up his public key and then applies RSA's one-way function to the message. Conversely, Bob decrypts the ciphertext by using his private key to reverse RSA's one-way function. Both processes require considerable mathematical manipulation, so encryption and decryption can, if the message is long, take several minutes on a personal computer. If Alice is sending a hundred messages a day, she cannot afford to spend several minutes encrypting each one.
Which kinds of evidence are included in the excerpt? Select 3 options.
a statistic
an example
a quote
a hypothetical situation
a fact
the author’s personal story
Answer:
An example
A hypothetical situation
A fact
Explanation:
Hypothetical situation: This is a situation that is depicted based on imagination.The author gave a hypothetical situation of Alice encrypting a message to bob using Bob's public key and Bob decrypting the message on his own end using his own private key.
ExampleThe author cited an example that Alice cannot afford to encrypt a hundred messages one by one due to the long time it takes. This is to back up the point earlier stated that encrption and decyption take time for long. messages.
Fact: This a point that is generally trueThe point that encryption and decryption can take several minutes on a personal computer if the message is long is a fact
