Read this text from Rhonda’s notes for her essay.
COUNTERCLAIM: Pets can actually harm the health of their owners.
Which statement is evidence that supports this counterclaim?
Select one:

A: Pet owners tend to have lower blood pressure and less heart disease.

B:Some types of parrot live for nearly a century.

C:Rabies is a fatal disease that can spread from dogs to humans.

D:Most pets, like most people, need attention, affection, and care.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Rabies is a fatal disease that can spread from dogs to humans.

Explanation:

Based on the fact that Rhonda's notes contain a counterclaim, we can conclude that she is probably writing an argumentative essay. An argumentative essay is a type of essay that presents arguments about both sides of a certain issue. Its author is making a claim and addresses a counterclaim - a claim someone else may use to rebut theirs. Rhonda is probably writing about how good pets are for people. However, someone may disagree with this and say that pets can actually harm the health of their owners.

Just like Rhonda, they would need to provide evidence that supports their claim. Out of the statements you were given, only statement C would be good evidence. Rabies is a real danger (although it can be prevented by vaccination). The rest of the statements don't show that pets are bad.

This is why option C is the correct one.

Answers

The conflicts describe the theme. I think so

Answer:

the conflicts reveal the theme

Explanation:

just took the test and im pretty sure the answer i chose (describe the theme) was wrong, the things that teiresias says more or less talks about the future events which lead to the theme of the story, so it reveals more than describes since describing would be living in the prediction.

Wyatt Earp was a famous gunfighter in the American West. Born in 1848, Earp held several jobs before becoming
an admired, and feared, gunslinger. He was a stagecoach driver, railroad worker, and buffalo hunter. He was also
a bit of a gambler. Earp's reputation as a fearless, righteous sheriff grew when he turned Dodge City, Kansas,
from a lawless town into a peaceful city. From there he moved on to Tombstone, Arizona, joined by his brothers
and his good friend Doc Holliday. There, Earp and his crew fought in the now legendary gunfight at the O.K.
Corral. Many books have been written, and films made, about this famous battle between the law-abiding Earp
brothers and the criminal Clanton family.

Earp was famous for
crime.
А
avoiding
B
combating
С

D

Answers

Answer:

B). Combating

Explanation:

The most appropriate adjective to define Earp's qualities would be 'combating' as he is popularly known as the fearless lawman who was righteous in his conduct. This attitude and his efforts helped in transforming the lawless town of Kansas into a peaceful city. Infact, he died also during a gunfight with O.K.  Corral. Although he got arrested several times due to his association with brothels but he never attempted to jump off the jail and later he became a police officer. Probably, this is why he is known as a lawman and a gunslinger too. Thus, option B is the correct answer.

In The Tragedy of Macbeth, Act IV, which adjective would Macduff and Malcolm be most likely to use to describe Macbeth’s rule on Scotland? Explain why it is right or wrong.
a. judicious
b. sundry
c. credulous
d. pernicious

Answers

Answer:

D. Pernicious

Explanation:

The Tragedy of Macbeth is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare. It tells about a Scottish general Macbeth, who receives a prophecy from three witches. According to the prophecy, he will become king of Scotland. Spurred by his ambition and wife, Macbeth murders Duncan, takes over the throne, and rules as a tyrant. He slaughters many, including Macduff's family. Macduff reaches out to Malcolm, Duncan's son who had fled to England, and they gather an army consisting of Scottish and English forces and end Macbeth's reign.

Based on this information, we can conclude that the word Macduff and Malcolm would use to describe Macbeth's rule is pernicious. When something is pernicious, it has a harmful effect (on something).

The rest of the words don't fit at all. The adjective judicious refers to something that shows or is done with good judgment. The adjective sundry means of various kinds, and when someone is credulous, they are too ready to believe that something is true.

This is why option D is the correct one.

d. pernicious

Which of these tips best completes the chart? A- use a combination lock as needed. B- wear elbow and knee pads for trail rides. C- attach reflectors to tires and seat. D- test brakes for effectiveness before long rides.

Answers

Answer:

C- attach reflectors to tires and seat.

Explanation:

Below is the complete question that was missing here:

A 3-column table with 1 row titled Bicycle Safety. Column 1 is labeled Helmet with entry Confirm proper sizing. Column 2 is labeled Tires with entry Check tread and inflation. Column 3 is labeled Visibility with no entry.

From the above question, Option C is the best that completes the chart. This chart shows steps to Bicycle Safety. Attaching reflectors to tires and seat will help assure safety especially when riding in the night. Reflectors are shiny and when light hits them, they reflect the light. This helps other cyclists and motorists to know that a rider is in front.

Explanation:

"The Story of My Life" by Helen Keller is a memoir where the blind and deaf author talks about her childhood and how she came to overcome her physical disabilities. The book provides an inspiring insight into the struggle of Keller and how she came to embrace life without the necessary sight and sound.

In the given excerpt, Keller recollects how she first learned about water and how she was helped by her teacher Miss Annie Sullivan to 'spell' water. This experience not only taught her how to spell and 'understand' water but also gave her a whole window of realization. It was at this moment that she knew and realized the potential she has, the barriers she can overcome, and enjoy life like other people, even though through a much different aspect.

Thus, the correct answer is that she learned she could overcome the obstacles in her life.

She learnt that she could overcome obstacles.

In line 104, what does Martha mean when she says “His face looked innocent, but I knew better.”?

Answers

Answer:

Martha says that Mr. Schmidt's "face looked innocent" because he thinks that she has no idea about how there were a short misunderstanding and controversy over who must get the scholarship while in reality, Martha had overheard the conversation. Moreover, she has also had to deal with a short disappointment in getting the jacket, like she rightly deserves to.

Explanation:

Marta Salinas's short story "The Scholarship Jacket," tells the story of a school girl named Martha and her achievement of getting the school's scholarship jacket, though not without any obstacles along the way. But despite the short disappointment, Martha was able to get the long-awaited jacket that she has been vying for a long time.

When Martha said "His face looked innocent, but I knew better", she was referring to Mr. Schmidt, her history teacher who she overheard having a tense conversation with her math teacher Mr. Boone over who should be given the jacket. While Mr. Boone favors Joann whose father is rich and a Board member, Mr. Schmidt wants Martha to get it and she rightly deserves it because of her perfect grades. But both teachers did not know Martha overheard their conversation.

So, when Mr. Schmidt congratulated her, Martha stated that "his face looked innocent" as if Martha doesn't know anything about the conversation or even the disappointment she was given on the path to getting the jacket. But in truth, Martha knew everything and that was why she admitted "[she] knew better."
