in your own words what is the difference between a job and a career ​

Answers

To me a job is just somthing that you do to earn money, it could be working in an office, being a janitor at a school and so on. A career, however, is somthing that you are passionate about and put alot of time and effort into persuing.

Answer:

A career involves long term goals. You are passionate about a career. You are always looking to forward your education, receiving increased pay raises and increased responsibilities. With a career, you are going to build new skills and learn how to critically think. A career sticks with you forever. A job is replaceable. The people who work those jobs are replaceable. You usually do not have to further your education or skills. They are usually taught on the job without the need for further training or critical thinking.

Explanation:

I have worked jobs, such as fast food, Grocery stores, etc., and now I have a career as a nurse. Skills are continuously learned with a career.  

Which reason for laughing more do you think is the MOST important or persuasive? Why? Use at least TWO pieces of evidence from the text and your own experiences to defend your answer.

EXTRA HELP
Use these questions to help you form a response:

- How does laughter help your body?

- How does laughter help your brain?

- How does laughter help your relationships?

- How does laughter help your emotions?

- Which one of these do you think is most important? Why?

Answers

Answer:

Laughter is good for us physically, but that is just the beginning. Laughter is good for the soul. There is a holiness in laughter. Laughter brings us closer to each other – and there is something holy about people coming together. Laughter provides us a moment of grace. It occurs spontaneously and unexpectedly. It catches us by surprise and we respond with laughter. We never expect to laugh, just as we never expect grace or good fortune when it arrives. And in that grace, we are able to recognize the folly of our own pursuits.Laughter can be an important tool for keeping our troubles in proportion, for realizing that things aren’t always as bad as we think they are. But even when things are as bad as we think they are, laughter helps create positive emotions and helps us find a frame of mind in which we can more easily cope with the struggles of life. Laughter eases tension and sharpens our ability to concentrate. Laughter is a lot like changing a baby’s diaper. It doesn’t permanently solve any problems, but it makes things a lot more acceptable for a while.

Answers

Answer:

The dependent clauses in each sentence are:

1. because it lets me imagine other worlds

2. Even though some people dislike reading

3.  that I read

Explanation:

A dependent or subordinate clause is a group of words that cannot stand alone as a sentence because it does not convey a complete meaning. That is why it is called dependent: it needs the main clause to add the necessary information for it to make sense. Dependent clauses begin with subordinating conjunctions, such as "because", "even though", "unless", "although", etc. Relative clauses, which are a type of dependent clause, begin with relative pronouns, such as "that", "which", or "who".

Having that in mind, we can easily choose the dependent clauses in each sentence by identifying the subordinating and relative conjunctions in them:

1. because it lets me imagine other worlds

2. Even though some people dislike reading

3.  that I read

Answer:

1. because it lets me imagine other worlds

2. Even though some people dislike reading

3.  that I read

A. "Of 73 and 1/2 hours of prime evening time, the networks have tentatively scheduled 59 hours of categories of action-adventure, situation comedy, variety, quiz, and movies." (paragraph 3)
B. "And most young children today, believe it or not, spend as much time watching television as they do in the schoolroom." (paragraph 4)
C. "If parents, teachers, and ministers conducted their responsibilities by following the ratings, children would have a steady diet of ice cream, school holidays, and no Sunday school." (paragraph 5)
D. "Is there no room on television to teach, to inform, to uplift, to stretch, to enlarge the capacities of our children?" (paragraph 5)
E. "There are some fine children's shows, but they are drowned out in the massive doses of cartoons, violence, and more violence." (paragraph 5)

Answers

Answer:

B. "And most young children today, believe it or not, spend as much time watching television as they do in the schoolroom."

D. "Is there no room on television to teach, to inform, to uplift, to stretch, to enlarge the capacities of our children?"

Explanation:

The sentences that support the argument that television has the potential to have a profound influence on children are sentences B and D.

By spending a lot of time watching television, children are being influenced by it. According to the text, television can influence children as much as the school does. It's well-known that, after family, school is the second most important and influential environment for children. This illustrates how intense the influence of television can be.

Statement D tells us in what ways television could influence children. It could teach, inform, and uplift them; it could increase their capacities. This is the potential the author of the text is emphasizing.

Dentify the sentence containing the correct usage of commas. A) Hey, Kate do you want to eat lunch together? B) Hey Kate do you want to each lunch together? C) Hey Kate do you, want to eat lunch together? D) Hey, Kate, do you want to eat lunch together?

Answers

Answer:

D) Hey, Kate, do you want to eat lunch together?

Explanation:

A vocative comma is a form of the comma that is used in addressing a person. This punctuation mark is used to show and emphasize the addressed person(s).

A vocative comma is used before and after the addressee, to offset it. This is because, the use of the greeting "Hey" shows that the person is directly addressed, in this case, Kate. So, the name of the receiver or the person addressed is in the middle, in between the commas.

Therefore, the correct sentence is

option D) Hey, Kate, do you want to eat lunch together?

Identify the dependent clause in the following sentence I can’t drive until I turn sixteen in July

Answers

Answer: until I turn sixteen in July

Explanation:

A dependent clause that starts with a subordinating conjunction such as "until" functions as an adverb. In this example, the adverb clause modifies the verb "drive" and starts with the subordinating conjunction "until". If the clause was located at the beginning of the sentence, it should be separated with a comma. In this case, since it´s at the end of the sentence, a comma is not required.

Food for a hunger relief program is shipped in 25-pound boxes.How many boxes will 2,350 pounds of food will fill.

Answers

Answer:

94 boxes

Explanation:

Okay, this is a standard division problem, you have to see how many times 2,350 will go into 25 so our equation is:

2,350 ÷ 25 = 94

So 2,350 pounds of food will fill 94 boxes

There are 94 boxes that hold 2,350 pounds of food.

What is the purpose of the hunger relief program?

The purpose of the hunger relief program is to avail food for those people who are unable to get it due to any concern, i.e. it may be due to natural calamity like flood, earthquake, etc., or the imposition of any emergency in the nation. They are mostly launched by the government.

According to the context of this question,

The amount of food that one box contains = 25 pounds.

The total amount of food that is available = 2350 pounds.

Now, you have to calculate the actual number of boxes that will hold the total amount of given food.

The number of boxes that will hold the total amount of given food = 2350/25 = 94.

Therefore, there are 94 boxes that hold 2,350 pounds of food.

Explanation:

At first, the clubs were frightening,
swinging away from my hands in strange patterns--
red—yellow—blue--
chaotic, unpredictable,
colliding like doomed galaxies
in midair.

Best to jump back, to let go.
I tried to tame them, then,
launching one at a time, only one
in a slow, controlled arc.

Cautiously I added a second,
letting the last wait in my hand
while its fellows soared…
but it was such a handful!

Always there was one too many,
smashing down on my fingers,
bouncing away from my grasp.

At last I learned
how to grip with my thumb, how to keep my fingers waiting.
I caught the clubs as they came down:

One, two. Stop.

One, two. Stop.

But I could not let the third club go.
I resigned myself to two;
two was easy, familiar.

There was no fear of breaking things,
no worry of losing control.
Over and over I flipped the colors,
but still everything was missing.

And then there came a day
when I let go with full force,
spinning the third club away
with the sudden trust that it would come back.
It did.

Solidly they kept returning,
one two three one two three,
perfect rhythm in my hands.

Perfect order, perfect chaos,
for as long as I could trust the risk
of each new throw.

Explanation:

Answer:

I drove my weight on it from above and bored it home like a shipwright bores his beam with a shipwright’s drill that men below, whipping the strap back and forth, whirl and the drill keeps twisting, never stopping –So we seized our stake with it fiery tip and bored it round and round in the giant’s eye. its crackling roots blazed and hissed - as a blacksmith plunges a glowing ax or adze in an ice-cold bath and the metal screeches steam and its temper hardens - that’s the iron’s strength - so the eye of Cyclops sizzled round that stake. Her mind in torment, wheeling like some lion at bay, dreading the gangs of hunters closing their cunning ring around him for the finish."

Explanation: Odysseus gives a descriptive account of how he defeats the Cyclops Polyphemus. Because he is speaking to the Phaecians, a sea-faring people, they would understand the comparison to a shipwright’s drill. : Odysseus compares the sizzling sound of the Cyclops’ eye to that of sticking fire-hot metal in cold water.  Penelope expresses her feeling of helplessness by comparing the suitors to hunters and herself to a trapped lion. The lion reference shows she still considers herself noble.

What happens when a Modifier is attached to and thus modifies a word it

ought not to modify?

Answers

Answer:

Since the modifier is modifying the incorrect word, it is a dangling modifier. As a result, the meaning of the sentence is affected.

Explanation:    

A dangling modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that is not in the right position in a sentence. As a result, the dangling modifier is operating over another word, phrase, or clause. Consequently, the sentence can be hard to understand, or can have another meaning than the intended one, or has no sense.
