B. To show that African Americans enlisted in the war hoping to gain acceptance and equality in their country.


C. To show that by donning the U.S. Army uniform, the people of America stood united, irrespective of their race.


D. To show that African Americans who were part of the armed forces were treated with dignity.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: A. To show that African Americans faced segregation even while fighting for their country alongside Americans of other races.

Explanation:

Hughes uses the idea of the treatment he gets while he has his uniform, meaning while he's fighting in the war, and when the time comes to take it off, meaning when the war ends. He wonders whether the segregation black Americans have suffered before and even during the war would stop afterward, considering that black Americans fought alongside the white soldiers. He´s worried that segregation might continue despite their efforts.

Explanation:

a sum of money becomes 8/5 of itself in 5 years at a certain rate of simple intrest. Find the rate of intrest​

Answers

Answer: 12%

Explanation:

It would be easier to assume a certain number when answering such questions.

Assume for instance, that the sum of money is $1,000.

In 5 years it increased by 8/5:

= 1,000 * 8/5

= $1,600

In 5 years this figure increased to $1,600. Increase was:

= 1,600 - 1,000

= $600

Simple interest is the same every year so the interest per year was:

= 600/5

= $120

Rate = 120 / 1,000

= 12%

Faster method.

= 8/5

= 1.6

Sum increased by 1.6 which means interest over 5 years was:

= 1.6 - 1

= 60%

Rate = 60%/ 5 years

= 12%

‘It’s not the possessions that matter, it’s the memories associated with them.’
Write an article for a magazine about your most prized possessions. In your article,
you could include:
1. what the possessions are
2. facts or information about the possessions
3. why the possessions are ‘prized’

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

I always associate the value of things according to the stories and the memory they carry. For that reason, my most valuable asset is a teddy bear that my father gave to my mother when they were dating, many years before I was born.

although my parents' marriage did not work out and they are no longer together, I like to think that this teddy bear is part of my story, as an omen about my coming to this world.

The bear is valuable to me, whenever I feel sad and desperate about my life. Because I look at him and believe that my life has a purpose that will be achieved, otherwise, my parents would not have been together, my mother would never win this bear and I would never exist.

Imagine this. There are glowing lights all around a ship in the middle of the ocean. An 18th-century sailorwould most likely think that a monster was surrounding the ship—ready to ingest it and all the people onboard. Today, we know that the lights come from the phosphorescent glow of jellyfish. Although swarms of jellyfish can be beautiful, they can also be a central part of an ecological disaster in the making.

For an animal that has does not have a brain, a heart, or blood, jellyfish have a negative impact in many places in the world. Normally, jellyfish travel in groups called swarms. When these swarms multiply and their numbers grow out of control, they are called blooms. Some species of jellyfish can release up to 40,000 eggs daily! It’s no wonder that these swarms could turn into blooms.

In the Black Sea, blooms of Mnemiopsis jellyfish are responsible for millions of dollars in losses for the local fishery industries who catch and sell anchovies. These blooms of jellyfish eat the larvae and eggs of these local fish leaving the fishermen without fish and without a way to make a living.

Today, there is an unlikely hero in the Black Sea. A different species of jellyfish called the Bereo jellyfish found its way into the Black Sea. This species eats the Mnemiopsis jellyfish. The Bereo are creating a more balanced ecosystem. Although this has saved the Black Sea, scientists are wary about using the Bereo in other seas. “We are thinking about using the Bereo in other areas, but we are concerned. There is a real fear of negative ecological consequences from introducing new species.

"Science data shows that over the past few years there has been an increase in swarms of jellyfish,” said Steve Hay, a plankton ecologist. Fisheries are not the only industry affected by these swarms. In the past few years, seawater filled with jellyfish clogged the filters of nuclear power plants in Japan, Israel and Scotland. The plants were shut down after the blooms clogged the cooling water filters (intake pipes).

“The Sea of Japan is filled with jellyfish and is disturbing the ecology and clogging our power plants,” stated a local high school student. “We decided to cook the jellyfish and make a caramel candy.” These students from Fisheries High School in Japan are hoping that their unique solution to the problem will help to save the Sea of Japan from the jellyfish takeover. They hope they can sell the candy and save the sea.

In addition, jellyfish blooms can even affect the political stability of a country. A power plant in the Philippines was shut off after the system was clogged by jellyfish. Thousands people were without electricity. The Philippine citizens were so upset that there was nearly a political upheaval in the country. What can be done about these all these disruptions?

Jellyfish occur naturally in nature. It is not clear why these blooms occur. It is important that scientists and industries continue to study jellyfish blooms closely in order to avoid these far-reaching problems.

Which of the following is NOT discussed in
the passage as a determining factor of the
amount of pollen in the air?
(A) Place
(B) Climate
(C) Time of year
(D) Altitude​

Answers

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Hay fever is a seasonal allergy to pollens. The term “hay fever,” however, is a less than adequate description since such an attack can be brought on by sources other than hay-producing grasses and since an attack of this allergy does not incur fever.

The causes of hay fever can be quite varied. Hay fever is generally caused by air-borne pollens, particularly ragweed pollen. The amount of pollen in the air is largely dependent on geographical location, weather, and season. In the eastern section of the United States, for example, there are generally three periods when pollen from various sources can cause intense hay fever sufferings; in the springtime months of March and April, when pollen from trees is prevalent, in the summer months of June and July, when grass pollen fills the air, and at the end of August, when ragweed pollen is at its most concentrated levels.

What results from an attack of hay fever is not a fever. Instead, a person with hay fever will suffer symptoms such as red and itching eyes, a swollen and runny nose, and repeated bouts of sneezing.

Explanation:

The factors presented as determining the amount of pollen in the air are place (geographical location), climate (weather), and time of year (season). For example, in the east, pollen in the air becomes more frequent during spring (March and April) and summer (June, July, and the end of August). Altitude​ is not considered a factor.

8. What is Hamlet's attitude towards women? *
O A He doesn't trust them
OB He loves and respect them
O C He puts them on a pedestal
O D He believes men are superior

Answers

Answer:

A He doesn't trust them

Explanation:

Hamlet has a distrust towards women, as well as certain prejudices. He states “Frailty, thy name is women!” which is connected to low morals and weakness.

His distrust quite likely comes from the fact that he learns he can’t trust his mother, the woman who is closest to him in his life. This comes from the fact she has played a role in his father’s murder. He starts feeling dislike towards her, but also towards all the women.

We can see that in his treatment of Ophelia – while he claims his love to her, he also says very harsh words to her later on. He says she presents herself as two-faced, doesn't believe she really is pure, and dismisses her.

Hamlet also states he “will have no more marriages”, underlying he is done with his connection to all women, which also reflects his lack of faith and wariness in females.
