Going overseas opened my eyes to the relative wealth of
the American standard of living; I will never be ungrateful
again. I also became more aware of the connection
between people of all nations and languages and how we
are all linked in terms of things like love, music, beauty
From now on, I will also be careful about how I speak to
people who are recent immigrants to America because I
remember how terrible it was to be new to a country. I
think these changes brought about by my overseas trip are
positive and will result in a greater capacity for cultural
understanding
Answer
Living in a foreign country taught me life lessons I'll never forget.

Please read the short poem below:
What Is An Intersection?
By Mahogany L. Browne and Olivia Gatwood
An intersection is a place
where things come together--
like four cars waiting
to go different directions
at a stoplight.
People intersect too
not just while moving down the street
but in who we are--
inside our bodies is a
stoplight where our identities come together
to make us a house of flamethrowers
to make us a river of living things.
We all have multiple identities--
you might be in a room full of girls,
but no two are exactly alike--
Classmate with nose ring and painted headband
Soccer player with flowing scarf and full smile
Student in library with brown skin and headphones
Skateboarder with hat to the back and book in hand
Swimmer with painted nails and crew cut
Dancer who says, “Only call me by my name.”
That’s intersectionality.
We all have different experiences in the world.
And we all have experiences we share.
Intersectionality means
paths crossing one another with respect.
Intersectionality means
moving with intentionality and
acknowledgement of surroundings.
Intersectionality means
we are all happening, we are all supporting
each other.
We are an ecosystem, living and growing,
depending on each other for survival,
evolving and becoming whole.
After read, please help with the question:
In the last two lines of stanza two, the speaker says that our identities come together to “make us a house of flamethrowers/to make us a river of living things.”
What do you think it means to be a “house of flamethrowers” ?
My notes: convey patience and skill required to be a flamethrower
Please analyze 4 sentencess
What do you think the author means by a “river of living things”? T
My notes: significance of water in generality, rivers flow and move freely, etc
Please 4 sentences min
Thank you so much!!
Answer:
When the author says that our identities come together to “make us a house of flamethrowers/.”, I think he meant that humans are different and because of that difference there will always be conflict.
I think it also has something to do with instability because a flamethrower is erratic and not stable.
When the author said, "a river of living things", I think he was referring to how different people are and how our identities intersect.
A river can be a home to many different sea animals and no two sea animals are the same.
I think it can also mean that despite the differences, we still find a way to co-exist and move together as a society just like the river.

are covered with graffiti. The lawns are littered with trash.
The equipment in the playground doesn't work properly.
And yet, Jackson Park has the potential to be our town's
best park. Some might argue that Jackson Park is a lost
cause, but I will show how this belief is far from the truth.

A. The benches are covered with graffiti.
B. And yet, Jackson Park has the potential to be our town's best park.

The next summer, I wanted something better than
standing in a crowd every morning hoping for a day’s work.
My opportunity came when the hiring boss announced one
morning that the Pepsi plant in Long Island City was looking
for porters to clean the floors, full-time for the summer. I
raised my hand. I was the only one who did.
The porters at the Pepsi plant were all black. The workers
on the bottling machines were all white. I didn’t care. I just
wanted work for the summer, and I worked hard, mopping up
syrup and soda that had spilled from overturned pallets.
At summer’s end, the boss told me he was pleased with my
work and asked if I wanted to come back. “Yes,” I answered,
“but not as a porter.” He agreed, and next summer I worked
on the bottling machine and as a pallet stacker, a more
prestigious and higher-paying job. It wasn’t exactly the Selma
March, but I integrated a bottling machine crew.
What does this story reveal about Powell as a person?
He liked working for Pepsi more than he liked working for Coke.
He learned that if he worked hard, people would be surprised.
He was a hard worker and overcame some racial boundaries.
He told people what he should be doing to get what he wanted.

Answer:
We can infer that Robert’s father was not supportive of his decision to attend college. This is evidence in the brother’s conversation:
ANDREW. You should have gone back to college last fall, like I know you wanted to. You’re fitted for that sort of thing—just as I ain’t.
ROBERT. You know why I didn’t go back, Andy. Pa didn’t like the idea, even if he didn’t say so; and I know he wanted the money to use improving the farm. And besides, I’m not keen on being a student, just because you see me reading books all the time. What I want to do now is keep on moving so that I won’t take root in any one place.
ANDREW. Well, the trip you’re leaving on tomorrow will keep you moving all right. (At this mention of the trip they both fall silent. There is a pause. Finally ANDREW goes on, awkwardly, attempting to speak casually) Uncle says you’ll be gone three years.
ROBERT. About that, he figures.
ANDREW. (moodily) That’s a long time.
ROBERT. Not so long when you come to consider it. You know the Sunda sails around the Horn for Yokohama first, and that’s a long voyage on a sailing ship; and if we go to any of the other places Uncle mentions—India, or Australia, or South Africa, or South America—they’ll be long voyages, too.
ANDREW. You can have all those foreign parts for all of me. (After a pause) Ma’s going to miss you a lot, Rob.
ROBERT. Yes—and I’ll miss her.
ANDREW. And Pa ain’t feeling none too happy to have you go—though he’s been trying not to show it.
ROBERT. I can see how he feels.
We also learn that Robert plans to be gone for several years. It is clear that his mother and father will miss him and likely worry about him during that time.

They said why did you want to. I told them becaus all my life I wantid to be smart and not dumb. But its very hard to be smart.
After I figgered out how punctuation worked, I read over all my old Progress Reports from the beginning. Boy, did I have crazy spelling and punctuation! I told Miss Kinnian I ought to go over the pages and fix all the mistakes but she said, "No, Charlie, Dr. Nemur wants them just as they are. That's why he let you keep them after they were photostated, to see your own progress. You're coming along fast, Charlie."
That made me feel good. After the lesson, I went down and played with Algernon. We don't race anymore.
What evidence from the passages shows that Charlie’s intelligence is increasing? Check all that apply.
He says he has learned punctuation.
His spelling has improved.
He does not get along with Miss Kinnian any more.
He does not race Algernon any more.
Dr. Nemur does not want him to change the reports

He says he has learned punctuation.His spelling has improved.He does not race Algernon any more.How did we know Charlie was getting more intelligent?He had improved his punctuation and spelling such that he was able to see the mistakes he made in the past and wanted to fix them.
He also realized that there was no need to race with Algernon and he could just play with him instead.

For each sentence, choose the word that creates a pair of coordinate adjectives.
I wore this jacket because my mom told me it would be a cool,
day.
I'm sorry, sir, but I ordered
brown toast with my eggs.
Answer:
I wore this jacket because my mom told me it would be a cool,
✔ windy
day.
I'm sorry, sir, but I ordered
✔ crunchy
brown toast with my eggs.
Explanation:
The word that develops a pair of coordinate adjectives would be as follows:
1). I wore this jacket because my mom told me it would be a cool, windy day.
2). I'm sorry, sir, but I ordered crunchy brown toast with my eggs.
Coordinate Adjectives
Coordinate Adjectives are described as adjectives that are placed consecutively to modify or qualify a single noun in the sentence. These adjectives come immediately one after another and therefore, using a comma(,) between the two along with the conjunction "and" is suggested. Thus, the above sentences employ "crunchy" and "windy" adequately to define the nouns 'day' and 'toast' along with other adjectives present in the sentences.Learn more about "Adjectives" here:
