Answer:
Part A - D) Many Germans have suffered under communism.
Part B - C) “... one German out of four is denied the elementary right of free men, and that is to make a free choice.”
Explanation:
On June 1963, President Kennedy gave one of his most popular speeches to hundreds of thousands of Germans in West Berlin as he applauded West Berlin for surviving even though they were surrounded by East Germany which was a communist state.
In this speech he argued that many Germans have suffered under communism as one out of every four Germans did not have the fundamental right to make their own choices simply because they lived in the communist state of East Germany.
A person who cannot make their own choices is one without freedom to be who they are and do what they want. That person can be said to be suffering and this was what the resident alluded to.

Voluntourism: An Opportunity Too Good to be True
A Speech to the Student Body of Evergreen High
[1] Picture this: It's Spring Break, and you fly off to some country where there's lush rainforests and beautiful, blue coastlines to explore. There's also people in need, so you decide to blend your vacation with volunteering. Volunteering as a tourist, or voluntourism, seems like a great way to explore new regions and help people at the same time. However, this "volunteer plus travel" experience can actually harm local communities. While many teens might view traveling and volunteering abroad as a worthwhile adventure, there are more genuine and effective ways to make a difference.
[2] Most would agree that volunteering in general is a worthy use of time. However, what if you found out the children you are "helping" are actually being kept in poor conditions so voluntourists will spend money to come to the local area? Dale Rolfe, a supporter of ethical voluntourism, explains the shocking reality that "Animal sanctuaries and orphanages are often manufactured for the voluntourist…encouraging a cycle of exploiting the very animals and children the volunteers are trying to help."
[3] Proponents of the "volunteer plus travel" experience also argue that traveling to new places builds character and is a valuable way to learn about different cultures. With voluntourism, however, participants often pursue experiences that are all about them. For example, they sign up to build a school for a gold star on their resume, but they have no real building skills and take jobs away from local construction workers (Schulten). Or, they arrive to teach English but instead take selfies with the locals. One world traveler and ethical voluntourist believes voluntourism "can perpetuate small minded views of the world by taking insulated, fake, and structured experiences and selling them as unabridged and eye opening" (Carlos). The voluntour experience is a mirage. The voluntourist's eyes are not opened to real life at the destination, and lasting change is not achieved.
[4] If you want a genuine experience where you can see a lasting impact, there are better options than voluntourism. You can volunteer in your local community. Give an hour every week to your town's animal rescue. Serve monthly dinners to the homeless. Be a reliable, positive influence on a child who needs a mentor. Studies show that volunteering and forming lasting relationships with those you help has a positive impact on your physical and emotional health. In fact, blood pressure is reduced, memory is improved, and rates of depression are reduced (Michaels).
[5] There is another reason to look into alternatives to voluntourism. Did you know the average "voluntour" travel package costs $3,400 (Rolfe)? Could that travel money be better spent? If the world's citizens are your passion, it could go to an international organization. If you care about education, your funds can be used to buy books for students in faraway lands. If you want villagers to have clean water, contribute funds to local efforts to dig wells. If you want to experience a different culture, travel to the country as a guest, and learn from the locals how you can best help them after you've returned home. But do not voluntour.
[6] In reality, there are better ways to make a difference. Voluntourism might appear to be an adventure that blends travel and helping others, but it does little except provide a costly, superficial experience that might actually do more harm than good. So, volunteer where you are most needed-at home, where you can stay to see the job through and form genuine, lasting relationships. Choose a beautiful coastline closer to home and send the travel money you saved to an international organization that will put it to good use. Whatever you do, don't turn someone else's hardship into your vacation.

Read the following excerpt from Andrew Jackson's Speech on Indian
Removal:
The consequences of a speedy removal will be important
to the United States, to individual states, and to the Indians
themselves. The pecuniary [financial] advantages which it
promises to the Government are the least of its
recommendations. It puts an end to all possible danger of
collision between the authorities of the general and State
Governments on account of the Indians.
How does Jackson most clearly make a hasty generalization about Indian
removal in this excerpt?
O A. He has no way of knowing whether the American Indians want to
move from their lands.
O B. He has no confirmation that the states want the American Indians
to settle elsewhere.
XO C. He has no proof that the American Indians and the government
will have conflicts.
D. He has no evidence that conflict with American Indians will end
with their removal.
Answer:
( D)He has no Evidence that Conflict with American Indians will end with their removal
Explanation:

In his major contributions, he laid the framework of democracy and accumulated more land for the United States of America, along with paying the national debt.

The pecan tree has been an American icon for over two hundred years. Before Europeans came to North America, Native Americans were aware of, and regularly ate, fruit from the pecan tree. Pecan trees are deciduous, losing their leaves in mid-November. Once planted, the pecan tree can live and bear fruit for over three hundred years. They reach enormous heights, the highest of which is a reported 180 ft. As a member of the hickory family of trees, the pecan is not a true nut but a drupe (fruit with a single stone or pit). This makes the fruit similar to that of coffee shrubs, olive trees, and date palms. Thomas Jefferson wrote about and cared for an entire orchard of pecan trees, and he spread his love of the tree and its fruit to other founding fathers, namely George Washington. Pecan trees have only recently been cultivated on a large scale by growers, mainly because the pecan nut is a healthy food that is high in both protein and unsaturated fats. Dieticians say that eating a handful of pecans every day is enough to lower unwanted, bad cholesterol as much as some prescription medications. Not only are pecans good for cholesterol, but they also help to prevent heart disease. Pecans are also regularly used in dishes and desserts, the most famous of which is the very American pecan pie.

(2) We want to dramatically increase our market share next year. (3) Please plan your ideas in advance so that you bring your absolutely best ideas to the meeting. (4) At the meeting, we will hold a discussion of our primary objectives and make a plan of marketing strategies. (5) Please remember that your ideas are important, helpful, and will contribute to our marketing plan. (6) So, active participation at the meeting is greatly appreciated. (7) I can affirm that we will deliberate until we reach consensus. Which writing style problem is most apparent in Statement 1?
Answer:
The persuasive writing style.
Explanation:
Which writing style problem is most apparent (obvious) in Statement 1?
- Take a look at Statement 1:
"Please come to the meeting with some out-of-the-box ideas that really push the envelope"
- Recall the types of writing style:
1. Expository 2. Descriptive 3. Persuasive 4. Narrative
ANSWER:
The whole question is a note (probably from the head of sales team) to members of the sales team in an organization. The writer is exposing them to the purpose of the meeting or topics of discussion for the meeting (expository writing).
The writer is also persuading the team members to brainstorm before coming for the meeting; so as to make important contributions.
In Statement 1, the persuasion of the writer seems more like coercion. The writer is persuasive but stern about the level or quality of ideas he wants to get at the meeting.
The writing style problem that is most apparent in Statement 1 hence, is the persuasive writing style.
How does Amy Tan reveal aspects of her real-life upbringing through the relationship between the fictional mother and daughter in "Two Kinds"
Answer:
"Two Kinds" by Amy Tan
Amy Tan's "Two Kinds" reveals that mothers and daughters are not of the same personalities. They are created as individuals with individual lives to live, individual missions to fulfill, and individual goals to achieve.
In this short story, Amy Tan illustrates her life in Jing-Mei. Some daughters are sheepishly obedient to their mothers, while others follow their own ways. Amy Tan follows her own mind against her mother’s wishes.
Explanation:
A daughter has her own life to live. The short story "Two Kinds" was written in 1985 and in 1989 incorporated into Amy Tan's successful novel titled "Joy Luck Club," which was later adapted into a film in 1993 by the same title. Through "Two Kinds" Amy Tan urges mothers to realize that they cannot merge their identities with their daughters'. Parents and children have different lives; they only cross life paths. This crossing of paths must not be confused with the sameness of identity and lifestyle.
Sasha is writing a defense of an op-ed claiming sunscreens containing oxybenzone should be banned. Which piece of evidence best defends her claim?
O One study found that sunscreen containing oxybenzone bleaches coral reefs, leading to the death of the coral. O Oxybenzone, an ingredient found in many sunscreens, filters the UV rays that lead to skin damage and even cancer. O The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says that oxybenzone is safe, but there are other ways people can protect their skin. Because it is still important to protect the skin, alternatives to sunscreens with oxybenzone such as those with zinc oxide, are preferred.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Just took the quiz :)
Sasha is writing a defense of an op-ed claiming sunscreens containing oxybenzone should be banned. The piece of evidence best defends her claim is Oxybenzone, an ingredient found in many sunscreens, filters the UV rays that lead to skin damage and even cancer.
Why Oxybenzene present in sunscreen is harmful?In the section, the boycott was upheld on the grounds that individuals stressed that synthetic substances in different sunscreens were awful for individuals and that certain individuals would quit wearing any sunscreen.
Notwithstanding the risks, the specialists accepted that the sun is more grounded than regular where reefs have passed on and thusly, didn't uphold the ban.
From the data given, it was expressed that specific sunscreens before long will at this point not be sold in a city in the Florida Keys as it's important for a work to safeguard coral reefs. Key West is situated at the base tip of Florida.
It was additionally expressed that there was a vote to boycott sunscreens containing oxybenzone and octinoxate. Subsequently, it tends to be seen that the city hall leader figures it will make individuals more mindful of the need to safeguard reefs and use sound judgment.

As one author said, THE WORLD IS FLAT. What are some of the special challenges of globalization for creating a sustainability strategy
Answer:
To create a sustainable strategy, globalization will have to face challenges such as: increasing the means of production while decreasing the cultural impact, increasing the agricultural frontiers, reducing the problems caused by monoculture and deforestation, promoting less pollution (of all types). levels) without interfering in the productive sector, creating equal resources, stimulating projects related to preservation, among others.
Explanation:
The sustainability associated with globalization is closely associated with the integrated productive sectors in different nations. The biggest challenge in this case will be to produce to the point of supplying world demand, which grows exponentially, but decreasing the environmental impact, in addition to encouraging protection and equality. These are very big challenges, since globalization interferes with conservation processes, it is important that regions in some places on the planet are degraded, while others are preserved. These degraded regions are usually those that do not have as much media visualization, for this reason, equality is a major challenge for globalization to create and maintain sustainability.
