Two rivals in a debate club argue about whether the goverment is taking the right actions on policies. They are here for a grand prize LOL of 1 0000000 dollars. 1st rival wold say are govermnets doing enough for the policies? 2nd rival says yes we are taking action on climate change and other things. !st rival what about this "Majorities of Americans say the federal government is doing too little to protect key aspects of the environment including water (69%) and air quality (64%). And two-thirds of Americans (67%) say the government is doing too little to reduce the effects of climate change. These findings come after a year of change in climate and energy regulatory policies under the Trump administration.
Majorities of U.S. adults say federal government is not doing enough to protect environment in these waysAt the same time, Americans are closely divided (52% to 48%) over whether or not it is possible to cut back on regulations while still effectively protecting air and water quality. There are wide political divides on this issue, with roughly three-quarters of Republicans (74%, including independents who lean Republican) convinced this is possible but 64% of Democrats (including Democratic-leaning independents) convinced it is not possible"

Explanation:
How does Josephine Preston Peabody’s use of imagery and figurative language enhance the story? Cite specific examples of imagery and figurative language from the text
-Icarus and Daedalus Questions
Answer:
Imagery and figurative language are used in the short story as a way to understand some thoughts transmitted in sentences, as well as to intensify the reader's perception of these meanings.
Explanation:
Imagery is used in the text to intensify one of the reader's senses and make him better understand what is being described in the text. In this way, imagery has the ability, literally, to provoke a strong sensation in the reader and bring him closer to what he is reading. In the text we can see this in the lines:
"At length, watching the sea-gulls in the air—the only creatures that were sure of liberty—he thought of a plan for himself and his young son Icarus, who was captive with him."
Figurative language aims to express an idea based on the use of words that are not objectively related to that idea, but establishes a subjunctive relationship that gives a lot of meaning to the text, in addition to exercising the reader's reasoning and understanding of the constructions. We can see a figurative language in the lines:
"He fell like a leaf tossed down the wind, down, down, with one cry that overtook Daedalus far away. "

Once upon a time, there were two brothers named Mark and John, they lived in New York City. One day they went to eat in a restaurant with their Uncle, James. Uncle James is a leader of soldiers, who wanted to discover the island of Death and see what was on it.
Uncle James wanted to explore "The Death Island" because a lot of people were saying that this Island is like The Bermuda Triangle and WORSE which can bring you to death. He thought that he could defeat the fear of this island and find the treasure that was hidden inside the heart of the island. Many people tried going to the island but they all disappeared and what the people found was the remains of their body thrown in the ocean. Uncle James wanted John and Mark to go with him to discover the island because he liked the determination that Mark and John had. He went to Mark and John and asked them if they could go with him for $1,000,000.
After he offered them the money they liked the offer, they went to their mom, Sofia. They told her "Uncle James told us to go with him to the Island and we'll get $1,000,000" but she refused, so they didn’t listen to what their mom told them to do. She refused because they just want the money, not their lives.
After that, they went to Uncle James and they told him "yes we agree". This was the worst answer ever because they will endanger their lives. After All, they prepared their stuff for the journey and packed weapons with them. After that, they went to the plane to start the journey to the island.
There they saw a huge monster with five eyes and four hands. This monster broke their plane and all of the rest of the soldier's planes. After that, they all ran to escape from the monster, they were going ways they didn't even know and they didn't realize what's happening. After they calm down and relax for a second then, they walk through the jungle to explore the Island they landed on.
After that, they saw a huge spider and the spider ate 5 of the soldiers and they were about 11 people with Mark and John. After the huge spider ate the 5 soldiers Mark defeated him with a rifle, then he killed the spider. After that, they founded a boat, so they took the boat and went out of the Island.
But then, they had very bad luck because there was a huge Octopus in the lake. He ate all the soldiers, and James and John. But the one who had a very good luck is Mark because Octopus didn’t eat him so he is still alive. After that, Mark went home and he was very sad because his brother died. But then he told his mom and his mom was very sad and furious. Because they didn’t listen to what she told them.
After Mark had saved his life, he went home and he was very sad, groaning and crying like a baby because his brother died. But then he told his mom and his mom was very sad and furious. Because they didn’t listen to what she told them.
After these things happened and all the people heard about it they made a big fence, so no one can go or pass into the Island.

In the spirit world, the trickster god Raven grew bored. He decided to leave and fly over the earth, but he found it was in total darkness. The selfish Sky Chief had been hoarding daylight from the world. Raven wanted to be able to see the earth as he flew over it, so he decided to play a trick on the chief and steal the light. Raven crept into the chief’s dwelling. He appeared as a baby, with raven hair and black eyes. The chief's daughter adopted the child, never knowing that he was in fact Raven the trickster. —"The Raven and the First Men: The Beginnings of the Haida"

Explanation:
I MET a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. Which of the following would be an additional example of situational irony? A; Learning the traveler did not expect to see a broken statue in the desert. B; Learning the traveler found more ruins C;Learning the king expected his statue to crumble D; Learning the king knew he would be forgotten as time passed.
Answer:
A; Learning the traveler did not expect to see a broken statue in the desert
Explanation:
Situational irony is the type of irony in which the actions produce an opposite of what is intended.
The additional example of situational irony in this text is finding out that the traveler did not expect to see a broken statue in the desert because he thought that all the statues were gone.
This produced the opposite effect of what the traveler intended to find.

Memories of a Memory
Have you ever witnessed something amazing, shocking or surprising and found when describing the event that your story seems to change the more you tell it? Have you ever experienced a time when you couldn't really describe something you saw in a way that others could understand? If so, you may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials. New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things.
First, memory is vague. Imagine your room at home or a classroom you see every day. Most likely, you could describe the room very generally. You could name the color of the walls, the floors, the decorations. But the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. Memory tends to save a blurry image of what we have seen rather than specific details. So when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall when faced with several tall people. There are lots of different kinds of "tall."
Second, memory uses general knowledge to fill in gaps. Our brains reconstruct events and scenes when we remember something. To do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. For example, one day at a library you go to quite frequently, you witness an argument between a library patron and one of the librarians. Later, when telling a friend about the event, your brain may remember a familiar librarian behind the desk rather than the actual participant simply because it is recreating a familiar scene. In effect, your brain is combining memories to help you tell the story.
Third, your memory changes over time. It also changes the more you retell the story. Documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. Research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is. You may have noticed this yourself. The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add, or what your brain wants to add, to the account. You may also notice that you drop certain details from previous tellings of the story.
With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. Did you really break your mother's favorite vase when you were three? Was that really your father throwing rocks into the river with you when you were seven? The human brain may be quite remarkable indeed. When it comes to memory, however, we may want to start carrying video cameras if we want to record the true picture.
Part A and Part B below contain one fill-in-the-blank to be used for all three question responses. Your complete response must be in the format A, B, C including the letter choice, commas, and a space after the commas.
Part A:
Which of the following best summarizes the main point of the essay "Memories of a Memory"?
Fill in blank 1 using A, B, or C.
Humans cannot recall their earliest memories accurately.
Humans have interesting brains that do many things to memories.
Humans have trouble recalling details of spaces.
Part B
Select one quotation from the text that supports your answer to Part A. Add your selection to blank 1 using D, E, or J.
With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true.
You may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials
J. Research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is.
Select one quotation from the text that supports your answer to Part A. Add your selection to blank 1 using F, G, or H.
F. New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things.
G. The image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room.
H. In effect, your brain is combining memories to help you tell the story.
Answer for Blank 1:
Answer:
Humans have interesting brains that do many things to memories.
With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true.
New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things.
Explanation:
The text shows how imprecise our memory is. That's because our brain has the ability to modify memories, fill in white spaces in the memory of a story or a situation, interweave different memories and even delete a memory completely or partially.
For this reason, it is common that we can never remember something as it truly is, what we have is a vague and blurred report that may be totally out of what really happened.

What inferences can you make about Mama and Big Walter’s marriage?
What happened to Mama that made her and Big Walter depressed?
Why do you think Beneatha does not see eye-to-eye with Mama or Ruth?
IF YOU CAN HELP ME PLEAE DO!
Answer:
1. It can be inferred that Mama and Big Walter were not actually married when they moved in together.
Here is an excerpt:
MAMA: ... “Rat trap”—yes, that’s all it is.
(Smiling) I remember just as well the day me and Big Walter moved in here. Hadn’t been married but two weeks and wasn’t planning on living here no more than a year.
2. Mama and Big Walter were depressed because of the incident that occurred when Mama lost her child, Claude.
Below is an excerpt:
MAMA: ...And then, Lord, when I lost that baby—little Claude—I almost thought I was going to lose Big Walter too. Oh, that man grieved hisself! He was one man to love his children.
3. The only thing that may warrant Beneatha not seeing eye-to-eye with Mama or Ruth is on the issue of God. Beneatha doesn't in the existence of a GOD and that belief infuriates Mama so much. Mama had to slap Beneatha when she made a statement against God.
(The question should be checked again)
Explanation:
"A Raisin In The Sun" is a play written by Lorraine Hansberry. The story is about an African-American family that lived in South Chicago who tried to improve their financial situation with an insurance payment after the demise of their father, Big Walter.

What figure of speech is this quote?
“Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.”
A)Personification
B)Metaphor
C)Simile
D)Repetition
Answer:
Metaphor
Explanation:
A metaphor is quote : "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." In this case, we talk about being on a right track not literally, but its just a way to say that "you're close to the answer". Getting run over is just like that too. You are not going to get literally run over, its just a statement that implies that you won't get any farther. Hope this helps. Please ignore the literally at the end, I didn't find a way to remove it :).

3. In "The Glittering Noise," some of the speaker's
statements create the effect of a confession. Select
TWO excerpts from the poem that support this idea.
Answer:
The TWO excerpts from the poem that support this idea are:
1. To tell the truth, I believe I could be happy doing nothing but reading old diaries morning to night
2. Aware of the shame I ought to feel - defecting so willingly from my own century - I stroll calmly through candlelit rooms and down to the quay, to board a waiting vessel that sails with the tide into the finest clear night pssible...
Explanation:
The Glittering Noise is a poem written by a British Poet by Denise Levertov.
The poem tends to speak intentionally about the writer who reveals what he likes doing (his hobby). Also, it reveals the experiences of people in every era.
The two excerpts simply speak of how the writer feels and the actions that follow the feelings he has. The effect of a confession these excerpts create depicts the writer's honesty in the experiences he passed through. It produces open-mindedness and down to earth.
