Answer:
When a fight nearly broke out between John McNab and Mars Bar, Maniac stepped in and simply led Mars Bar away from the McNab home.
Explanation:
Maniac was instrumental in bringing Mars Bar to the McNab's home for the birthday party. But Mars Bar was uncomfortable being in a white home and the McNab family were uncomfortable having a black in their home. When the McNab boys played the game "blacks and whites", it made Mars Bar very uncomfortable.
Maniac's purpose of inviting Mars Bar to the birthday party was to teach Mars Bar about the white people and to teach the white about the blacks. But it wasn't actualized.
"Maniac Magee" is a story by American author Jerry Spinelli. The story's themes center on racism and inequality. It tells the story of an orphan boy who was looking for an abode and a home in the fictional town of Two Mills. Two Mills is a town which was torn between the East and West, blacks and whites.
2. What is your preferred method of learning?
Why?
Answer:
Everyone has different answers, but I think that learning through asking questions and learning through answering difficult problems at the start will help you a lot.
Explanation:
The reasons being the many people and textbooks just tell you all the information right away and then give you problems. But I believe that it should give you challenging problems from the start and having you to think through it would help a lot. And because you did it by yourself, you should be very proud!
Asking question is a very good way of learning because then the teacher/educator etc. would know how you think about a certain topic or question, thus better understanding you.
Hope this helped!

Explanation:
Which two ways do these gothic elements reflect the situation of women in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries?
Answer:
La figura de la maestra es significativa para los católicos, ya que abarca varios problemas acuciantes para la Iglesia Católica desde fines del siglo XIX: la laicidad de la enseñanza pública, el trabajo femenino extra-familiar asalariado y la educación secundaria de las mujeres. Precisamente, el objetivo del presente artículo es identificar los argumentos a partir de los cuales los católicos realizan sus evaluaciones sobre el magisterio, tomando como fuente la prensa de tendencia católica que aparece en Bahía Blanca y circula por su vasta región de influencia que comprende el sudoeste bonaerense, el territorio de La Pampa y el norte de la Patagonia, en las tres primeras décadas del siglo XX.
Abordando el discurso periodístico desde una perspectiva de género, se intentará demostrar que, a pesar de los procesos de laicización, las formulaciones católicas colaboran en la construcción del perfil laboral del magisterio como misión femenina enraizada en la naturaleza maternal y que, si bien estas ideas no tienen en sí mismas la intención de subvertir las relaciones de género, avalan ciertas mutaciones en la condición femenina pues, en algunos casos, operan legitimando el acceso a la educación y al trabajo, así como también el derecho de asociación.
Se reconstruye, en primera instancia, la realidad particular de la docencia como rubro de inserción laboral femenina en el sudoeste de la Provincia de Buenos Aires para pasar, en segundo término, a estudiar la visión transmitida por la prensa de tendencia católica en torno al magisterio.

With the character
many scholars believe that Chaucer is indirectly criticizing the church
Answer:
d. The Wife of Bath.
Explanation:
In Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, the various stories told by the pilgrims all have a reflection of some societal issues that were prevalent at that time. Moreover, the stories also act as a way for Chaucer to put his own personal beliefs and voice through the characters that he used in the storytellers.
The character of The Wife of Bath is believed to be the voice of Chaucer in criticizing the church. Most scholars believe this to be the medium through which the author Chaucer puts forward his voice, for the character tells a story that criticizes the popular Christian belief of the institution of marriage, (the holy matrimony) a women's virginity, etc among others. It is believed that through this character, Chaucer is mocking the church, for he presents this story in front of the other characters, including the churchmen present among the pilgrims.

QUESTION 3
The advertising industry continues to express concern over the highly cluttered viewing environment on TV
The amount of clutter increased as much as 30 percent during the 1990s and has continued to increase over the
past two decades (Thielman. S., 2013). Clutter levels have been increasing. Thus, a viewer watching three hours
of prime-time programs on the major networks would be exposed to more than 100 commercials in addition to
programming promotions, and public social announcements (PSAs). The problem is even greater during popular
shows, to which the networks add more commercials because they can charge more. Discuss reasons (4 reasons)
for this phenomenon clutter. What are some of the ways (4 ways) advertisers can use to break through or address
the problem of clutter?

As shown in the question above, we are bombarded with advertisements when we watch TV, the problem with all of this is that the advertisements are of the most varied we have, which can leave us tired and sadly confused, as a result, we usually do not pay attention to these advertisements and probably we will not look for the advertised products. However, advertisers continue to look for TV stations to advertise their products, the reasons for this are probably:
TV is still a strong communication vehicle. TV is a device present in almost all houses, which facilitates the visualization of the advertisement. TV is unable to filter the interests of its owner to display only advertisements that may interest him. Broadcasters profit a lot from different ads.As already shown above, this confusion of ads can be harmful to the advertiser, to reduce this problem, the advertiser can choose to:
Invest more in online ads, than in ads on TV stations. Make ads with a cleaner look, but with attractive factors. Charge broadcasters to have their ad displayed with related ads. Hire a strong team that has the ability to make your ad stand out.Which of these rhetorical devices was the author of the declaration when he included words like plundered and destroyed?

Which of these passages would most likely be part of an expository text?
Passage 1
What makes weather? Earth's temperature is partly responsible. Water vapor in the air moves from one place to another depending on
temperature. Warm air rises, and cold air sinks. As the warm als around the equator rises, it moves toward the poles and is cooled. The cold air
around the poles also moves toward the equator. While this is happening, Eartt is spinning. The spin of the planet is called its rotation. The
rotation of Earth is also important to weather. As Earth splus, the sun can warm only part of it at any one time. The other part faces away from
the sun. It is cooler. As a result, the rotation of Earth creates constantly changing temperatures.

Read the excerpt from Does My Head Look Big in This? by Randa Abdel-Fattah.
I froze. The priest would declare me a heretic, my parents would call me a traitor, and Mrs. Piogarni would give me detention. I had no idea what to say. I mean, what does a Muslim confess to a priest? I could only think of one thing. That every time Chris Barkley called me a darkie, or teased me about my mom's towel-head, I made a silent prayer asking God to drop a tree on his stupid head.
The priest asked me again: "What is your confession, my child?"
"I’m Muslim," I whispered.
"Five Hail Marys and five of the Lord’s Prayer.”
That was my first and last participation in a church service.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
In the story, the narrator states "I had no idea what to say. I mean, what does a Muslim confess to a priest?".
Additionally, the narrator states "I froze". The narrator worries about what other people will think about them. They think that their parents will call them a traitor, or their teacher will give them a detention.
The narrator is scared and worried, because they are confessing they are Muslim to a Catholic priest. They are frightened about the outcomes of this action.
She is not confused, and the story does not mention the Lord's Prayer. She is terrified, but not from shame from her thoughts. She is also not annoyed.
Therefore, the best choice is A: The narrator is frightened because she is a Muslim making a Catholic confession.

One of the more controversial topics for students at this community college is the cost of textbooks. Textbooks are written for many reasons, not the least of which is the publisher royalties that are paid to the author(s). Publishers are eager to enforce "fair use" laws that prohibit students from copying materials offered in a given text. Discuss your interpretation of the fair use laws and how you think they relate to students. Are they fair? Also consider how you would interpret the laws if you were the author.
Answer:
A fair use is a copying of copyrighted material without permission from the copyright ower for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as quoting a few lines from a song for a music review or summizing from a medical article for use by a teacher in a lesson.
This relates to students because material is vital for their study. Imagine that you have to ask for permission whenever you extract a few copyrighted material for your report or presentation. Fair use laws enable you to use more material with ease.
From the author’s view, some may think that this law has a negative impact on them as they lose a large amount of money. However, the more people can access to copyrighted material, the better the original version will become. It is because the original will be commented and criticized by other experts like the way a scientific paper is published. Furthermore, fair use laws help students from low-income families access to better education so that they can become productive people and contribute to society. I think owner will be happy and have a sense of achievement because they do such a good thing. Moreover, a fairly extensive use of the original work is permitted in a parody in order to “conjure up” the original, so the owner will benefit from this when their mental children are beautified.
To sum up, I think fair use law is a human law because thanks to it, education can be free and accessible for more people, especially the poor. Although this law is not beneficial for authors in some cases, its effect may go beyond the things that money can bring, it is humanity.

Answer:
the readers to understand the same situation from different viewpoints. We are not only given Auggie’s account of the things that take place in the story because when the point of view is changed we see the other characters’ thoughts and feelings in multiple instances. I believe the author does this to highlight the fact that although Auggie feels as though he’s suffering alone, there are other characters who both empathize and victimize him. This mirrors one the overall messages of the book that no matter how alone one may feel, there are people out there who share your experience and want to help.

Can’t we all just get along:Common Lit. I need number 5 as a strong text cited answer. Please and Thank You
Answer:
CommonLit question number 5 of the article "Why Can't We All Get Along?" is "How does the author structure the text to convey the central idea of the article?"
The author gives instances of relationships between living things from most violent to the nicest to convey the central idea of the importance of symbiotic relationships, and highlighted the important terms of the text in bold characters to emphasize the explanation of the terms, which he presented before the terms themselves.
Explanation:
In "Why Can't We All Get Along?" the author talks about the importance of symbiotic relationships between living things, he starts off by giving instances of not so beneficial relationships between living things where one of them is always hurt fatally, then gradually moves down to relationships where living things living together benefit each other by that arrangement. He highlighted the most important terms in bold to emphasize the explanation he gives of the terms, and to emphasize what he wanted his audience to understand.
This way of structuring the text helps convey the central idea of the importance of symbiotic relationships between living things that the article conveys.
Answer: To convey the central idea of the article, that the effect of one living thing on another depends on if their relationship is harmful or beneficial. The author of "Why Can't We All Get Along?" discusses the importance of symbiotic relationships between living things. He begins by describing not-so-beneficial relationships between living things in which one of them is always fatally injured, then progresses to relationships in which living things living together benefit each other. He highlighted in bold the most relevant terms to underline the explanations he provides for the words, as well as what he wanted his audience to understand. This method of text organization helps in conveying the article's central message on the importance of symbiotic interactions between living things.
