Answer:
D-O’Mara puts statistics about gun deaths in a new light in order to shock readers into acknowledging the devastation of gun violence.
Explanation:
From the article, "Gun Debate? What Gun Debate?", Mark O'Mara makes an argument about the gun problem in America. He believes that while gun-rights advocates argue that gun control would be an infringement on their rights to self-defense as enshrined in the Second Amendment, they have ignored the fact that there have been quite a number of gun-related deaths, more especially in schools.
He brings the statistic of the number of gun-related deaths each year which according to him is at 300,000 deaths per year and putting it in perspective, America lost 60,000 soldiers in the Vietnam war.
Choose the answer that shows how the word articulate would be hyphenated if it had to be divided at the end of a line. Group of answer choices artic-ulate arti-culate articul-ate
Answer:
Arti-culate.
Explanation:
Hyphenating any word in cases of the word ending at the line is a common occurrence that happens all the time. But about how the hyphenation must be done or how the word should be separated has a bit of a rule into it.
First of all, any word that needs to be hyphenated must be done according to the syllable. For example, the word "purple" must be hyphenated as "pur-ple" with the different syllables put together and then separated by the hyphen. This division of words according to the syllables ensures that the sound or reading of the word isn't changed.
Also, the use of the hyphen mid-word at the end of a line must be done in such a way that the hyphen is in the first line with at least two letters before the hyphen. In this case, the word "articulate" has four syllables which can be divided as "ar/ti/cu/late".
Considering the options provided, "artic-ulate" and "articul-ate" are wrong for they mixed up the syllables. Thus, the correct answer is "arti-culate".

What type of verbal and dramatic irony are found in ‘The ministers black veil’ ?
Explanation:
The Ministers Black Veil was written by famous author, Nathaniel Hawthorne. It is a short story. It is a strange story of the village minister whose mysterious decision puts his parishioners on the edge.
The black veil in the story symbolizes the secret sins of the man and how bad the human nature is.
The dramatic irony in the story is that while the veil is the main element in the story but Hawthorne, the author never lets the reader know about the reason behind the veil. And the verbal irony that Hawthorne shows in the story is that when it is stated that a superstitious woman is not a trustworthy or a reliable person or a witness for an alleged supernatural events.
One of the important issues raised by Skloot's book is the ethics of journalism. What constitutes ethical journalism? Compare the differences between irresponsible and responsible reporting on HeLa and the Lacks family. What are some of the intended and unintended consequences of irresponsible journalism?
The correct answers are the following.
First, we have to say the name of the book the question it is referring to because it doesn't mention it. We are talking about the "Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks," written by Rebecca Skloot.
Ethical journalism is the exercise of responsibility in the journalism profession. This means that reporters have to be objective when covering the news. They do not have to bias information, trying to manipulate public opinion. Ethical journalism also means asking the right and clear questions to know the facts, never trying to confuse people so the information could favor one personal agenda.
As Rebecca Skloot writes in her book, irresponsible and responsible reporting on HeLa and the Lacks family is a major part of her story because the cells of Henrietta Lacks were sold without the consent of Henrietta's family.
Some of the intended and unintended consequences of irresponsible journalism are the following. As mentioned above, irresponsible journalism biased the truth. Many times, the news company has particular interests and tries to bias the information so people only know one half of the story. This kind of journalism is partial because it does not allow all the parts involved to express their point of view in the story. That is why smart people know that what appears in the news it is not true because news companies serve other high interests from corporations and governments. Informed people go look at different sources and their own opinion.

“History of the Peloponnesian War: Pericles’ Funeral Oration:” Which of these inferences is best supported by the following paragraph? “If then we prefer to meet danger with a light heart but without laborious training, and with a courage which is gained by habit and not enforced by law, are we not greatly the better for it? Since we do not anticipate the pain, although, when the hour comes, we can be as brave as those who never allow themselves to rest; thus our city is equally admirable in peace and in war. For we are lovers of the beautiful in our tastes and our strength lies, in our opinion, not in deliberation and discussion, but that knowledge which is gained by discussion preparatory to action. For we have a peculiar power of thinking before we act, and of acting, too, whereas other men are courageous from ignorance but hesitate upon reflection. And they are surely to be esteemed the bravest spirits who, having the clearest sense both of the pains and pleasures of life, do not on that account shrink from danger. In doing good, again, we are unlike others; we make our friends by conferring, not by receiving favors. Now he who confers a favor is the firmer friend, because he would rather by kindness keep alive the memory of an obligation; but the recipient is colder in his feelings, because he knows that in requiting another’s generosity he will not be winning gratitude but only paying a debt. We alone do good to our neighbors not upon a calculation of interest, but in the confidence of freedom and in a frank and fearless spirit. To sum up: I say that Athens is the school of Hellas, and that the individual Athenian in his own person seems to have the power of adapting himself to the most varied forms of action with the utmost versatility and grace. This is no passing and idle word, but truth and fact; and the assertion is verified by the position to which these qualities have raised the state. For in the hour of trial Athens alone among her contemporaries is superior to the report of her. No enemy who comes against her is indignant at the reverses which he sustains at the hands of such a city; no subject complains that his masters are unworthy of him. And we shall assuredly not be without witnesses; there are mighty monuments of our power which will make us the wonder of this and of succeeding ages; we shall not need the praises of Homer or of any other panegyrist whose poetry may please for the moment, although his representation of the facts will not bear the light of day. For we have compelled every land and every sea to open a path for our valor, and have everywhere planted eternal memorials of our friendship and of our enmity. Such is the city for whose sake these men nobly fought and died; they could not bear the thought that she might be taken from them; and every one of us who survive should gladly toil on her behalf.” Question 34 options: a) Grief has deranged Pericles beyond reason. b) Pericles fears that the dead have been sacrificed in vain. c) Pericles believes that Athenians play too hard and work too little. d) Pericles thinks Athens is powerful because of its intellectual freedom and motivation.

Which detail from the text best supports the author message about treating other people? Thank u ma’am
Answer:
The text that supports author's message about treating other people is:
'The woman did not ask the boy anything about where he lived, or his folks, or anything else that would embarrass him. Instead, as they ate, she told him about her job in a hotel beauty-shop that stayed open late, what the work was like, and how all kinds of women came in and out, blondes, red-heads, and Spanish. Then she cut him a half of her ten-cent cake.'
Explanation:
'Thank You M'am' is a short story written by Langston Hughes. The story is about a boy names Roger who was caught by Mrs. Jones while he was trying to steal her purse and the treatment he received after from her.
The central message of the text is that people, like Roger, can learn the lesson of morality if they be taught with kindness and gentleness, as done by Mrs. Jones.
In the story, after Mrs. Jones caught Roger stealing her purse, she did not hand him over to the police and demand justice rather she took him to her house and fed him good food. She taught him the message of morality without punishing him but with kindness.
To support this message the text from the story is provided above.

How do you respond to the conception of race with which Hurston ends her essay? Does it agree with how you understand race?
Answer:
Zora Neale Hurston's 1928 essay, "How It Feels to be Colored Me," ends with an image of various different colored bags propped against a wall. If you were to pour out the contents of the bags, you would find in each one a similar "jumble of small things priceless and worthless." The point is clear. It is the same one that Dr. Martin Luther King was to make decades later: the color of a person's skin tells you nothing about the content of his of her character.
In the 1920s or, for that matter, the 1960s, this straightforward approach to racial equality was the standard anti-racist position. Now, however, many people who consider themselves anti-racist would take issue with Hurston's view. They would argue that to disregard race entirely after centuries of inequality and oppression is itself a racist attitude. A white person who has profited from generations of colonialism, slave labor, and segregation and is now in a privileged position ought not to claim equality with a black person who...
Explanation:
Hurston addresses the reader directly at the conclusion of the essay. According to Hurston, the brown bag is in your control. The picture it describes is of many different colored bags hanging up against a wall.
What is the theme of the essay by Hurston?The theme of the Essay "How It Feels to Be Colored Me" is based on the concept of love and self-confidence which nurtures the individual personality.
Hurston claims in this essay that people of all races are equal and that she does not regard herself to be terribly colored, which gives her a sense of pride.
Hurston had a special racial viewpoint because she supported white racism rather than black racism. Hurston claims that on occasion, she is just herself, regardless of her ethnicity.

With renewed hope that there was some truth to the legends, I looked for new research. I found that some experts disagreed with popular arguments against dragons. They suggested that a dragon could have four stomachs like a cow. If it created stomach gases like birds, it might create enough to lift itself off the ground. This would give it the ability to fly. If it forced out air when diving toward the earth, it might release gases which could ignite into flame. When the animal died, the stomachs would release strong acids that would dissolve its dead body over time. Biologists backed up these ideas with sketches and models based on known animals. Not everyone agreed with these ideas, but many of the things we accept about dinosaurs and other extinct species started the same way.

I doubt we will ever truly know whether dragons existed. There may always be two sides to the fiery debate. Some will say the stories come from active imaginations. Some will believe with all their hearts that the legendary creatures roamed our ancient world. I don't know for certain which side to believe, but the sound and fury of a night like this makes me smile. It rekindles my childhood dreams and keeps the exciting possibility alive.
