What is the theme of the McWilliamses and the burglar alarm?
Answer:
The theme of the story is that intelligence is more effective than money in protecting people.
Explanation:
"McWilliamses and the burglar alarm" is a short story written by Mark Twain. In this story we know the McWilliams family who spent lots of money buying burglar alarms for the house where they live, but thieves keep entering the house frequently, which shows that the alarms are completely ineffective. When the family complains to the company that makes the burglar alarms, the company says they need a better and more expensive alarm, which also doesn't stop thieves from breaking into the house.
Given this, Mark Twain shows that the McWilliams family could not see that they were being deceived by the producer of the burglar alarms. This lack of family intelligence prevented them from realizing this and for that reason, they believed that money was needed to protect them, when intelligence was even more essential in this case. Thus, we can conclude that the theme of this story is that intelligence is more important than money to protect a person and their family.
It is important to emphasize that the theme of a story refers to the message that the author wants to promote through the text.

Where do you think
the line between public safety and personal freedom
should be drawn?
Answer:
Explanation:
One thing I should warn you about. This question is kind of vague. Some mods don't believe it is part of a school subject, and so it will get deleted. You should make clear why you want an answer.
Let me begin by saying that in Canada, the question is not really a question. We have a constitution and a bill or rights. We don't think our rights have been transgressed when something like the virus shows up and we have to obey certain restrictions. Public Health takes presidence over personal freedom, and most of us willingly suspend our personal freedom in favor of public health. We can go back to expressing our opinions with letters to the editor and our government representatives when the virus is no more. There is a minority that objects to what I've written, and they get to have their say, but most of us are obedient.
The line is not really a line. Where public safety is concerned, the scale tips in that direction.

According to the two examples, we should use the present perfect tense to form sentences with the words given.
The present perfect tense is used to describe actions that began in the past and continue in the present, actions that happened in the recent past, or simply past actions whose specific time is not explicit in the sentence. The structure is:
subject + have / has + main verb in the past participle
Examples:
- I have watched this movie before.
- Dana has called her sister.
- They have been to England twice.

[4] Because Equiano had sea-going experience, he could be quite useful to Farmer. Which sentence in the paragraph is structured differently than the others
Answer:
The sentence in the paragraph that is structured differently than the others is:
sentence 4.
Explanation:
The difference between sentence 4 and the others is the sequence of clauses. Sentences 1, 2, and 3 all start with the main clause, which consists of a subject and a predicate, and which is able to stand alone as a sentence and convey a full meaning. Then, their main clauses are followed by either a coordinate clause or a subordinate clause, which begin with conjunctions (and, yet, so, etc.)
On the other hand, sentence 4 begins with the subordinate clause. We can identify it since it uses the subordinating conjunction "because". This clause is then followed by the main clause. As we can see, sentence 4 inverts the structure.

Answer:
Protagonist

Odysseus is the protagonist of the story, as he is the main character of "Odyssey." We can see that he is the protagonist, as all the events and facts that happen in the story revolve around him, and he is an essential piece for the narrative to continue moving forward. In addition, "Odyssey" tells the story of all the adventures that Odysseus engaged in to get back to his home in Ithaca.

Sự khác nhau giữa
"Look for.." và "find"
Answer:
rước tiên, hầu hết các bạn nhầm lẫn trong cách sử dụng “to find” tượng tự như “to look for” với suy nghĩ rằng chúng đều có nghĩa là “tìm kiếm”. Ví dụ, các bạn hay nói, “I’m finding a job.” hay “Mr. Nguyen is finding you.”
Tuy nhiên, chỉ có “to look for” có nghĩa là “tìm kiếm”, còn “to find” có nghĩa là “tìm thấy”. Như vậy, “to find” là kết quả của “to look for”. Khi mình đánh mất hoặc cần một thứ gì đó, mình phải “look for – tìm kiếm” thứ đó. Sau một lúc, mình có thể “find – tìm thấy” hoặc “not find – không tìm thấy” thứ đó.
