Answer:
Explanation:
"The haters are as active as ever", the 16-year-old Swedish climate activist posted on social media on Thursday, "going after me, my looks, my clothes, my behaviour and my differences". Anything, she says, rather than talk about the climate crisis.
It hasn't stopped her from campaigning. On Friday, she led another of her climate strikes, heading up a huge demonstration in Montreal, demanding international aviation does more to cut its carbon footprint.
But she is clearly very annoyed, accusing critics of "crossing every line to avert the focus" with, what she calls, lies and conspiracy theories.
Of course, the attention isn't surprising. Over the past year, Greta Thunberg has arguably done more to galvanise global action on climate than any other single individual.
And there is no question the unnerving power of her rhetoric comes in part from the fact that she is so young.
Thunberg to leaders: 'You've failed us on climate'
UN panel signals red alert on 'Blue Planet'
Climate change 'accelerating', say scientists

A key reason her "How dare you!" message hit home so hard in the UN this week was because she seemed so jarringly out of place in the air-conditioned formality of the UN's New York HQ.
It is unusual for young people to hold the adult world to account so forcefully and so publicly and some people clearly don't like it.
She certainly did that on Monday when she accused world leaders of "stealing my dreams and my childhood", and warned them that "the eyes of all future generations are upon you. And, if you choose to fail us, I say: 'We will never forgive you'".
So, how about her mental health? And, while we're about it, does anyone have the right to comment on it? What's so impressive about Thunberg is how clear-headed she is on the urgent need for action in the light of the science.
Understandably, Thunberg particularly resents her mental capacity being called into question. "Being different is not an illness and the current, best available science is not opinions - it's facts", she said this week.
She acknowledges that she was very unhappy in the past, but says that championing the climate issue has helped lift her out of despair.
"It makes me feel good that I'm not alone in this fight," she told me, "and it feels like my life has some kind of meaning lately and I feel that what I am doing is meaningful."
She's famously described her Asperger's as a "superpower", allowing her to cut through the noise and see to the heart of the issue.
Media caption"You are failing us" - Greta tells world leaders
Dr James Cusack, director of science at the autism charity, Autistica, says she's been a really important role model for others with the condition. "Her brave, clear-minded and science-led approach to activism is inspiring for many people," he says.
And, while Thunberg is sometimes emotional about her cause she says that's because she's appalled and frustrated that the world isn't doing enough to tackle climate change.
She has the full support of her family. Her father, Svante Thunberg, is travelling in America with her - and shared the privations on her transatlantic voyage. Her mother and younger sister, Beata, stayed in Sweden.
She's no plans to stop campaigning any time soon.
These coming months are crucial, she told me, if the world is going to manage to keep the global temperature increase below 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels. Emissions have to start reducing before the end of next year, she warns, or we are likely to pass tipping points leading to uncontrolled climate change.
Yet, last year global carbon emissions increased by 2.7%, hitting a record high of 37.1bn tonnes.
Thunberg was upset by the response of the world leaders in the UN HQ this week. They politely applauded her speech but had no new initiatives that would significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and most also failed to acknowledge either her message or the fact that millions of people had taken to the streets to demand action just days before.
So, climate action remains very much a work in progress for Thunberg, despite her critics.
"I guess they must feel threatened by us," she wrote this week. "But the world is waking up."

I don't think Ravi felt isolated. I think he was bored, and he didn't think the game was very interesting. Like he wanted to hide so that he didn't have to play, and he could just chill and wait it out. Do you agree or disagree with this point of view? Find evidence from the story to support or refute the student's claim. In your response, clarify why you agree or disagree with the student's thoughts.
Answer and Explanation:
Do you agree or disagree with this point of view?
I disagree with this point of view.
Find evidence from the story to support or refute the student's claim. In your response, clarify why you agree or disagree with the student's thoughts.
Ravi is a character in the short story "Games at Twilight", by Anita Desai. He and his siblings are playing hide-and-seek when he decides to hide in the shed where old furniture and broken things are kept. Ravi is excited about the idea of winning the game. He is motivated by picturing himself as a champion who got to win over older, smarter kids. After hiding for hours, he comes out and runs to the "den" to become the desperate winner of a game that had been long over. His siblings had forgotten about him.
Upon this awful realization, Ravi feels completely isolated. He is obviously a young child who is still insecure about his place in the world. That's why he is so desperate to win - to prove something to himself and others. But the fact that he was forgotten is utterly disappointing and hurtful. He does not feel included; he does not want to be included anymore:
And the arc of thin arms trembled in the twilight, and the heads were bowed so sadly, and their feet tramped to that melancholy refrain so mournfully, so helplessly, that Ravi could not bear it. He would not follow them, he would not be included in this funereal game. He had wanted victory and triumph—not a funeral. But he had been forgotten, left out, and he would not join them now. The ignominy of being forgotten—how could he face it? He felt his heart go heavy and ache inside him unbearably. He lay down full length on the damp grass, crushing his face into it, no longer crying, silenced by a terrible sense of his insignificance.

Which is correct?
O A. Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees, when they became infected with Dutch elm disease.
O B. Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees. When they became infected with Dutch elm disease.
O C. Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees when they became infected with Dutch elm disease.
Answer:
O C. Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees when they became infected with Dutch elm disease.
Explanation:
You usually only use commas in between two independent clauses. An independent clause is a sentence that works on its own. It does not need any more information to understand. It doesn't depend on anything other than itself.
However, you don't need a comma in between an independent clause and a dependent clause. Dependent clauses are just what they sound like: they depend on independent clauses. Dependent clauses are all the background information that is not entirely necessary, but they add detail.
Let's take a look at the other answers:
O A."Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees" is a dependent clause. You can just slap a period at the end it it works just fine. However, there is also a dependent clause with a comma that follows it: ",when they became infected with Dutch elm disease." Remember, you don't follow an independent clause with a comma and a dependent clause. This is a wrong answer.
O B. "Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees. When they became infected with Dutch elm disease." The first sentence is an independent clause, and it works fine. But, the second sentence is a dangling modifier. It describes something, but doesn't show the thing in that sentence. It doesn't make sense.
O C. "Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees when they became infected with Dutch elm disease." This makes perfect sense. It has an independent clause "Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees" and a dependent clause (which needs the independent clause in a sentence with it to work): when they became infected with Dutch elm disease." It doesn't have a comma in between the independent and dependent clauses, so this is the right answer.

There were no attendants at home; they had absconded to make merry in honour of the time. I had told them that I should not return until the morning and had given them explicit orders not to stir from the house. These orders were sufficient, I well knew, to insure their immediate disappearance, one and all, as soon as my back was turned. The phrase “not to stir from the house” most likely refers to Montresor’s _____. 1. direction that no one be allowed in 2. command that they remain at home 3. instructions that the attendants go to carnival 4. expectation that the home be thoroughly cleaned
Answer:
The phrase "not to stir from the house" refers to Montressor's command that they remain at home
Explanation:
The phrase above is used by Montressor in the excerpt to command his attendants not to leave the house but instead to remain there until his return.
Unfortunately, the attendants immediately turned their backs after Montressor had left the house and they went out, leaving the home unattended.
Answer:
the answer definitely isnt "I had told them that I should not return until the morning, and had given them explicit orders not to stir from the house"

How does Alcoholics Anonymous help people deal with alcoholism?
El consumo de alcohol es un fenómeno socialmente aceptado que de hecho forma parte desde la antigüedad de una gran cantidad de culturas. Sin embargo, muchas personas realizan un consumo de alcohol excesivo y muy prolongado a lo largo del tiempo y terminan adquiriendo dependencia a esta sustancia: estamos hablando de dependencia al alcohol o alcoholismo.
Esta situación tiene graves repercusiones para el sujeto, pudiendo generar graves problemas de salud o incluso llevar a la muerte. Se trata de algo dramático que muchas familias observan en uno de sus miembros, no sabiendo cómo actuar. ¿Cómo ayudar a un alcohólico? En este artículo vamos a discutir una serie de pautas generales que familiares y amigos pueden encontrar relevantes y útiles de cara a abordar el tema.
Artículo relacionado: "Alcoholismo: estos son los efectos de la dependencia a la bebida"
Rememorando conceptos: ¿qué es el alcoholismo?
Se considera alcoholismo la adicción al alcohol, es decir, la adquisición de dependencia tanto física como psicológica al consumo de bebidas espirituosas que se genera debido a la adquisición de tolerancia hacia su consumo. El organismo necesita mayores cantidades de sustancia para notar los mismos efectos, a la vez que su ausencia genera potentes síntomas propias de un síndrome de abstinencia, como ahora disforia, agitación, convulsiones y otros tipos de alteración. Se consume de tal manera que se invierte una gran cantidad de tiempo en conseguir alcohol o se descuidan o deterioran otras actividades o ámbitos vitales relevantes.
Estamos ante una situación en el que el sujeto pierde el control ante el consumo, siendo este mucho mayor de lo que se pretendería y llevándose a cabo a pesar del conocimiento de posibles consecuencias aversivas tanto para él como para su entorno. Sin embargo es frecuente que exista un deseo de cesar el consumo y pueden haberse hecho uno o varios intentos al respecto (infructuosos). A pesar de ello, suelen negar la existencia de una dependencia.
El consumo descontrolado y frecuente de alcohol puede acarrear consecuencias dramáticas, pudiendo generar cirrosis hepática, hígado graso o incluso disfunciones renales. Los daños sobre estos órganos pueden ser irreversibles y llevar a la necesidad de un transplante o incluso a la muerte por la destrucción de dichos tejidos. El alcohólico se intoxica con frecuencia, siendo habitual la presencia de lagunas y pérdidas de consciencia. En algunos casos el sujeto puede llegar al coma etílico o incluso a la muerte por paro cardiorespiratorio.
El comportamiento también se altera, pudiendo ir desde la agresividad hasta la pasividad extrema, y no es poco habitual que se realicen conductas de riesgo en estado de ebriedad. Socialmente pueden sufrir el abandono de su entorno o generar gran sufrimiento a aquellos que les rodean.

write a paragraph contrasting the values of working animals and the value of napoleon and the pigs. use evidence from the story so far to support your answer
Answer:
Animal farm is a fable written by George Orwell about the negative effects of a communist regime. By using animals Orwell clearly depicts characteristics of those in power. He chooses pigs to embody the regime´s leaders. Napoleon is the meanest and less scrupulous of the pigs. He is the greediest, most ambitious of the lot .He feels no remorse for betraying the cause he pretended to embrace. He lies, deceives the other animals with false promises of a brighter future such as the building of the windmill. In short, Napoleon and the pigs are less than acceptable in terms of morality.
On the other hand, the animals on the farm are trusting and loyal, especially boxer, the cart-horse. He stands at the other end of the moral spectrum compared to the pigs. He is honest, hard-working, deeply believes and follows the ideals of the revolution. He puts his heart and soul to build the windmill because he wants to improve the welfare of his farm and fellow animals.
