Read this excerpt.

I must close now. But before closing I am impelled to mention one other point in your statement that troubled me profoundly. You warmly commended the Birmingham police force for keeping “order” and “preventing violence.” I don’t believe you would have so warmly commended the police force if you had seen its angry violent dogs literally biting six unarmed, nonviolent Negroes. I don’t believe you would so quickly commend the policemen if you would observe their ugly and inhuman treatment of Negroes here in the city jail; if you would watch them push and curse old Negro women and young Negro girls; if you would see them slap and kick old Negro men and young Negro boys; if you will observe them, as they did on two occasions, refuse to give us food because we wanted to sing our grace together. I’m sorry that I can’t join you in your praise for the police department.

The tell tale heart
Summarize the text. List five to seven key events from the story in the order in which
they happen. Your summary should include main points from the beginning, middle,
and end of the story.

Answers

Answer:

1. The guy wanted the old man's heart.

2. He confessed because he was going crazy after the narrator killed the old man.

3. After the narrator killed the old man he put him under the floor. (I think the basement sorry its been a while since I did this)

4. The old man's eye was driving the narrator crazy.

5. After the narrator killed the old man he thought that he could still hear him

Some key events from the story are-

the old man's pale blue eyes that seem to affect the narrator.

The narrator's ha tred for the eyes, despite having no ha tred for the old man himself.

The narrator would sneak every night for a week and observe the old man while he slept.

The eighth night was different as he felt the old man wasn't sleeping but felt a sense of te r ror which led him to kill him.

He then dis me mber ed the body and hid them under the flooring boards.

The policemen who had arrived to inspect if anything is wrong were confident nothing is wrong.

But the narrator, eager to prove his innocence and his expertise in hiding his crime so well, made them sit right in the same room where he had hidden the old man's body.

His imagination led him to believe that the dead man's heart is beating so loud, like a drum, and that the policemen were ta u nting him, leading him to confess to the crime.

Writing a summary of a text means writing shorter but precise and important points of the text. This means only the main points must be included, and the whole text is made shorter. Ed gar Al lan Po e's short story "The Tell-Tale Heart," tells the story of an unnamed narrator who's trying to convince the readers why he had committed a mu rder. The story follows the narrator and how he came to do the dreadful act.The narrator reveals that there was no particular motive behind his murd erous act, just that the old man's pale blue eyes affected him in ways he couldn't understand or explain.This can be understood by his statement, "I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me ins ult."  The eighth night was different for the old man felt a sense of te rr or, which also left the narrator to feel differently. It was this night that the old man was killed by the narrator.The narrator, hearing the loud thumping of the old man's nervous heartbeat, decided to do something about it before the neighbors can hear the 'loud' heartbeat.He then dis mem bered the body, with careful pre cision he 'cleaned' after himself.The body parts were then put under the "flooring of the chamber", admitting that his actions were so precise, "[I] replaced the boards so cleverly, so c u nnin gly, that no human eye — not even his — could have detected anything wrong."Upon a neighbor's report, three policemen arrived to check whether things are all fine, to which the narrator happily admitted them in and showed them everything is in order and that the old man was out of the country.In an act of sheer au d a city, he even made them rest in the very same room he had killed and hidden the corpse.But the longer the men cha t te d, the more de li r i o us he be came.He felt that he could hear the heart beat lou der, even ima gining if the polic em en had he ard it too. Unable to contain his anxious state, and believing that the men knew what he had done and were taunting him, he confessed to the crime and revealed the location of the body, declaring "it is the beating of his hide ous heart!"

The whole story shows the narrator's overconfidence that led him to confess his crime. The short story reveals the narrator's crime and his self consciousness that led him to fess up to the crime.

Answer:

Explanation:

Read the following paragraph. The underlined sentence is the main idea of the paragraph. Answer the question that follows.

The main negative effect of reality television is that it spreads common stereotypes. Stereotypes cause us to make incorrect assumptions about different groups of people. For instance, the belief that people who wear glasses are math geniuses is a stereotype. We have long known about the effects of stereotyping. That’s why we have been fighting to put an end to these stereotypes. Now, reality television is harming our progress. One researcher at Syracuse University, Sherri Williams, found that people on reality shows were chosen based on how well they fit certain stereotypes. During the show, they were encouraged to play up these stereotypes as much as possible. In this way, the show helped to strengthen stereotypes about different types of people.

Which sentence can be added to the paragraph as supporting evidence for its main idea?

A. Italian Americans were told to use a strong Italian accent while speaking on a reality show. B. Reality shows help to spread common stereotypes about different cultures.

C. Studies have shown that reality shows are becoming less popular.

D. TV comedy shows are the most likely to create characters based on stereotypes.

Answer:

a 30 page essay on how birds migrate

BY SHAUNACY FERRO

Where birds go during the winter, and how they get there, has baffled people in the northern regions of the world for centuries. Aristotle suggested that birds changed species with the seasons; that redstarts turned into robins and garden warblers into blackcaps as the weather cooled. As late as the 19th century, some naturalists thought birds hibernated.

The reality seems almost as crazy as birds morphing species throughout the year. Thousands of bird species (at least 40 percent of the world’s birds) travel between summer breeding grounds and winter enclaves, sometimes crossing continents and oceans to do so. For example, every year, the arctic tern travels 44,000 miles on a meandering path between Greenland and Antarctica. However, seasonal migration is not restricted to flying birds. Emperor penguins march across 70 miles of ice each year from the sea to their breeding ground.

In the poem "Life is Fine," Hughes creates a form that is based on the blues genre in American music, and yet unique to the poem itself. What role do the italicized lines play in the poem? How do they effect the way the poem looks and sounds? How do they affect its rhythm? Are these effects related to the content in these lines?

Answers

Answer:

message me for the answer

Explanation:

Answer:

In the poem “Life is Fine”, italicized lines work as the narrators reasons as to why he should not harm himself. The temperature of the water and how high up the elevator had taken him were decisions on why not to harm himself.

The italicized lines effect the way the poem looks and sounds by giving the words emphasis and a sense of imagery. For example, stating how high the 16th floor had shocked him and the temperature of the water.

The rhythm is affected by the repetition of lines and the inclusion of blues lyrics.

In relation to the content in the lines, the effects result in evoking a mournful tone and tempo. Such effects are common in the blues genre of music.

Insects as Food
You probably think that you would never eat an insect, even if you were starving. Insects are ugly and disgusting, right? But chances are you do eat them, or at least you use products that come from insects. Beeswax, for example, is used in lip balms. Honeycomb is sold in most American supermarkets.
Around the world, insects have long been an important food source. Insects were once a major food for Australian aborigines. In some countries, grasshoppers and large palm weevil grubs are still eaten. In South Africa, some people snack on roasted termites as if they were popcorn. In the Sinai Desert, some people eat the dry, scaly parts of certain bugs. In Mexico, a popular cake is made with the eggs of a water insect. In the United States, chocolate-covered ants are a delicacy sold in many food stores.

Which statement best sums up the author’s viewpoint?


1) Insects are unfairly rejected as a food source.

2) Insects are better than most foods.

3) Insects have no place in a modern diet.

4) Insects are the food of the future.​

Romeo and Friar Laurence speak of death and banishment. Which would Romeo prefer,
and how does the Friar respond?

Answers

Answer:

Romeo wished he's dead while Friar Laurence thinks Romeo must be grateful he's only banished from the city and not sentenced to death.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" revolves around the tragic story of two lovers caught in their families' feud which indirectly led to their deaths. The story delves into the themes of love, loyalty, society, family, and hatred, among others.

In Act III scene iii, Romeo and Friar Laurence are in conversation about the punishment that the Prince had pronounced for Romeo for killing Tybalt. The prince had banished Romeo out of the city which, is worse than death, for Romeo. He remarks: "Ha, banishment! Be merciful, say “death,”  For exile hath more terror in his look, Much more than death. Do not say “banishment." Romeo thinks it's "torture and not mercy."

But for the Friar, this was better than death because it means that Romeo is still alive and the banishment is a merciful sentence as compared to the sinful act of killing someone (which Romeo did). He called Romeo "rude unthankfulness" and thinks he should be grateful he's not sentenced to death.

Hello Luke,

It's been a while.

I just resumed school and you won't believe it. The Freshmen have arrived. They are everywhere like a swarm of bees swarming a treasure pot of nectar.

At least 5 times a day, you get asked for directions by lazybones who just won't use the school's navigation/map system.

I have just one more year to spend here and I can't wait for it to be over. Made friends of quite a few of them though. One is a self-taught android programmer. He's got a few apps in the store and I figured, I can relate with this guy.

The other is a lady. Quite young, she's seventeen but quite matured for her age. She's always giving advice like I'm her younger brother even though I'm older than her by 4 years.

This set of Freshmen seem to have one thing in common. They all believe that they can build a life right here in school before life begins for them outside of it. This seems to be the rave. I don't know why but I kind of like it and It drives me to make the most of my last year in school

I can't wait to hear from you.
