Throughout the story, Buck faces challenges, becomes the leader of the sled dogs, and eventually finds a kind owner who saves him from a dangerous situation.
Explanation:
The book Call of the Wild was written by Jack London, an American novelist, journalist, and social activist. It was published in 1903 and is set in Yukon, Canada during the 1890s Klondike gold rush. The story follows a dog named Buck who is taken from his comfortable life with Judge Miller and forced to adapt to the harsh realities of life as a sled dog.
Throughout the book, Buck faces numerous challenges and must learn to survive in a brutal environment. He experiences the hierarchy and violence of the dog pack, becomes the new leader of the sled dogs, and endures mistreatment from various owners. However, Buck's life takes a positive turn when he meets a kind man named John Thornton who saves him from a dangerous situation.
If I were Buck, I would also feel scared and behave differently because it would be a completely new and challenging situation for me.
In this excerpt from “The Nightingale and the Rose” by Oscar Wilde, which two sentences contain a conflict? "She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses," cried the young Student; "but in all my garden there is no red rose." From her nest in the holm-oak tree the Nightingale heard him, and she looked out through the leaves, and wondered. "No red rose in all my garden!" he cried, and his beautiful eyes filled with tears. "Ah, on what little things does happiness depend! I have read all that the wise men have written, and all the secrets of philosophy are mine, yet for want of a red rose is my life made wretched." "Here at last is a true lover," said the Nightingale. "Night after night have I sung of him, though I knew him not: night after night have I told his story to the stars, and now I see him. His hair is dark as the hyacinth-blossom, and his lips are red as the rose of his desire; but passion has made his face like pale ivory, and sorrow has set her seal upon his brow."
please hurry guys the first one will get brainliest
There is a conflict in these two sentences said by the student in the story. This situation is what makes the nightingale do something for true love. The bird hears this conflict and takes it as evidence for real love. The nightingale thinks the boy is the love she has been singing to every night.
The two sentences that contain a conflict are:
She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses, cried the young Student; ""but in all my garden there is no red rose. ""Ah, on what little things does happiness depend! I have read all that the wise men have written, and all the secrets of philosophy are mine, yet for want of a red rose is my life made wretched.""
In the first sentence, the conflict is the young Student's dilemma of not having a red rose, which is a condition for the girl to dance with him. This creates an external conflict as the Student is faced with an obstacle that prevents him from achieving his desire to dance with the girl he admires.
In the second sentence, the conflict is an internal one, where the Student reflects on the irony of his situation. Despite his extensive knowledge and understanding of philosophy, he is unable to find happiness because of something as simple as a red rose. This highlights the emotional turmoil he experiences due to the unfulfilled condition set by his beloved.
The conflict is central to the narrative, driving the plot forward as the Student's need for a red rose leads to the Nightingale's involvement and the subsequent events of the story.

Question 7 options:
They are extremely laid back and casual
They are tightly wound and fast paced
They are extremely funny
They are always angry and yell at everything
It means they are tightly wound and fast paced.
New Yorkers live in an accelerated way due to great economic movement of the city. Therefore, they are a population that has already survive great challenges. In this way, they have learned a lot from life.
Quoting E.B. White, Here Is New York:
"There are roughly three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man or woman who was born here, who takes the city for granted and accepts its size and its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of the commuter—the city that is devoured by locusts each day and spat out each night. Third, there is the New York of the person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. Of these three trembling cities the greatest is the last—the city of final destination, the city that is a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York’s high-strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements. Commuters”

In his famous speech at the March on Washington in 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Theodore Taylor published The Cay six years later, in 1969. The dedication to the novel read: “To Dr. King’s dream, which can only come true if the very young know and understand.” What does Taylor want young people to “know and understand”? How will this help Dr. King’s dream come true? Explain what the dedication means and how the message of the book is connected to Dr. King’s dream. Use at least two details from the novel to support your answer.
Theodore Taylor's novel The Cay is a story about overcoming prejudice, and being able to see beyond actual sight. The dedication in his novel, suggests that the story is going to be about issues of equality among races.
In the novel, Phillip is forced to leave his father behind and board a ship with his mother, in order to escape from the war. While they are on the ship, they suffer from a torpedo attack by the Germans. As a consequence of the blast, Phillip is blinded, and he ends up on a raft with a black West Indian man called Timothy, and a cat named Stew Cat. Eventually, Timothy steers the draft onto an island, even though Phillips thinks staying at sea is better. On the island, Timothy builds a shelter and finds food. There is a growing tension between the two characters until Phillip finally realizes that Timothy is only trying to help, and they decide to work together to survive. Phillip becomes Timothy's friend, and asks him to call Phillip by his name.
As they become closer, and even though Phillip is blind, he becomes more independent, and empowered. After a storm, Timothy is severely injured from trying to protect Phillip from debris and wind, and eventually he dies. Phillip gives his friend proper burial, and he realizes the only way to survive is by making a plane aware of where he is. He manages to make dark smoke to call a pilot's attention, and he and Stew Cat are rescued. An operation in New York miraculously cures Phillip blindness, and he returns home. His friend Henrik seems to young for him now, and he decides he wants to be friends with the black West Indian people who remind him of Timothy.
In the novel Phillip knows and understands that prejudice and bigotry towards people of different races is unfounded. But it takes his becoming blind to realize that people are not really that different. Once he loses his sight he is really able to see that there is no fundamental difference between people based solely on their appearance. It is the nature of their being, their character, that makes them worth of judgement. And it is not until people learn to see beyond their sight, that cases of racism will stop.

The natural world is as beautiful as the woman the speaker admires.
B.
The elements of the natural world reflect and connect the lover’s bliss.
C.

This points to the idea that beauty is subjective, yet the capacity to see it is universally shared among people. Even when confronted with something potentially harmful or commonly perceived as ugly, individuals can find allure, hinting at the profound connection between humans and their interpretations of beauty that transcend circumstances.

Write two poems. In the first, write a poem of six lines, each with the same number of beats (remember that each specific syllable is one beat). In the second, write a poem of six lines, but give each line a different number of beats. Make both poems about the same subject. How does changing the structure change the feeling of the poem?
Your response below should include both poems, and two to three sentences discussing how changing the structure changed the feeling of the poem.

The Candle (1)
On a white night
Cold and special
The candlelight
Slowly trembles;
A small sunrise
It resembles
The Candle (2)
The candle sitting on the window
Contrasting against the white snow
Resembles a small sunset
As it trembles
So fiery,
So slow...
I feel like changing the structure of the poem gave me more space to describe what I saw in my imagination.
I also believe that the poem with the same number of beats is more 'musical', while the other one is like telling a story. I think another difference is that the second one feels more natural and it describes an image, while the first one is shorter but more emotional.
Answer:
Barking (1)
On a dark night
Dogs bark loudly
Alerting us
Of the danger
Lights flicker on
To empty yards
Barking (2)
The neighborhood dogs bark in the night
Waking their owners with the sound
Houses start glowing with light
No danger to be found
But they bark
And bark
I feel like changing the structure of the poem because it gave me more space to describe what I saw in my neighborhood. I think increasing the beats in the second poem giving the poem a deeper sense of concern. The first poem with it’s shorter beats flows faster creating less suspense.

Your sense of self-worth and the level of satisfaction you have with yourself are referred to as
The correct answer is Self-esteem.
Your sense of self-worth and the level of satisfaction you have with yourself are referred to as Self-esteem.
Self-esteem is related to how one person feels and evaluate herself.
Self-esteem reflects satisfaction, confidence, pridefulness and many other positive feelings and emotions a person can have of herself.
Your sense of self-worth and the level of satisfaction you have with yourself are referred to as self-esteem, which refers to the positive (high self-esteem) or negative (low self-esteem) and they are all the feelings that we have about ourselves, so, when we believe that we are good and worthy, our self-esteem is high and, on the other hand, we experience the feeling of low self-esteem when we are inadequate and less worthy than others.

The Crucible is famous as a political allegory, but what exactly is Miller trying to say? Who do you think is being most criticized in the contemporary analogy?
The Crucible is a play written by Arthur Miller in 1952. This was a time during which the fear for the growth in power of the Soviet Union was spreading in America.
What Miller is trying to say in The Crucible is that he is against condemning others with no legitimate reason. He mainly criticizes the government. At that time, the government was persecuting those that were accused of having Communist ties. The government was trying to stop the spread of Communism and so they resorted to many unjustifiable and illegal actions.
Miller is trying to say through The Crucible that government persecution of suspected communists was wrong.
Senator Joseph McCarthy is being most criticized in The Crucible . He was in power in the 1950's in The U.S. He wanted to finish completely with communist sympathizers. In fact, McCarthy was a senator during the Cold War with The Soviet Union. The Witches of Salem represented the communist. They were encouraged to confess their identity to escape from punishment. McCarthy did something similar to the people who worked in the government and in the entertainment industry.
Read the passage Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do. Which best explains the use of literal and figurative language in the passage
A.) it is literal; the passage describes what actually happens
B.) it is figurative; the passage describes what actually happens
C.) it is literal; the passage contains words that alter the usual meaning
D.) it is figurative; the passage contains words that alter the usual meaning
The right answer is D.
The author uses a figurative interpretation of the word tired, specially with the second cause, as nobody gets literally "tired" from waiting for someone, or having nothing to do. In this passage, "tired" contains the meaning of "bored".
The option B has the right type of language listed, but the wrong justification, as the passage does not describe what actually happens.

Which three lines or sets of lines in this excerpt from John Milton's Paradise Lost reflect Satan's apparent regret that he can never experience love?
Imparadis't in one anothers arms
The happier Eden, shall enjoy their fill
Of bliss on bliss, while I to Hell am thrust,
Where neither joy nor love, but fierce desire,
Among our other torments not the least,
Still unfulfill'd with pain of longing pines;
Yet let me not forget what I have gain'd
From their own mouths; all is not theirs it seems:
One fatal Tree there stands of Knowledge call'd,
Forbidden them to taste: Knowledge forbidd'n?
Suspicious, reasonless. Why should their Lord
Envie them that? can it be sin to know,
Final answer:
In John Milton's 'Paradise Lost', Satan expresses regret over not being able to experience love through lines that reflect his tormented desires and sense of exclusion from bliss and love.
Explanation:
The three lines from John Milton's Paradise Lost that reflect Satan's regret over not being able to experience love are:
"while I to Hell am thrust, Where neither joy nor love, but fierce desire,"
"Among our other torments not the least, Still unfulfill'd with pain of longing pines;"
"Yet let me not forget what I have gain'd From their own mouths; all is not theirs it seems:"
These lines encapsulate Satan's feelings of exclusion from the bliss of Eden and the inability to experience love, which instead is replaced by an unfulfilled desire that torments him. The poignant sense of loss and desire amidst suffering is vivid in these words.
I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother’s grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain’t I a woman? —“Ain’t I a Woman?,” Sojourner Truth Which two types of appeal does Truth use in this quotation? logos and pathos logos and ethos pathos and ethos
ANSWER IS: "PATHOS AND ETHOS"
Truth is using a pathos and an ethos appeal. It is possible to say so, because with the pathos she is trying to get the audience attention, but, at the same time, there's an ethose because she is based on her own experiences (relating it with affairs linked to moral). It is not a logos appeal because this one refairs to logic, and, indeed, Truth was an abolitionist and tried to question the logic related to her historical context in which she not only was a coloured person, but also a woman.
C. pathos and ethos.
What is reveal about the characters of To Kill a Mockingbird throughout the exposition of the novel?
To kill a Mockingbird is a novel written by Harper Lee in 1960. It was a great success and won the Pulitzer Price becoming in a classic of US literature.
The main themes of the novel are racial injustice and destruction of innocence. It generates a metaphor about how the sweet melody from a Mockingbird is compare to child inoccence and inoffensivenes, and how killing a single creature like this is bird is very similar to destroy the moral of humans.
Even though, the novel's thematic focus on racial injustice, its black characters are not fully examined. In its use of racial epithets, stereotyped representations of superstitious blacks, the book is viewed as marginalizing black characters.
The exposition of 'To Kill a Mockingbird' provides insight into the characters, introduces the Finch family, and sets the stage for the novel's themes amidst the setting of 1930s Alabama. Dialogue and actions of the characters hint at their personalities and impending conflicts, while the motif of characters wearing 'masks' to hide their true selves is hinted at.
Explanation:The exposition of To Kill a Mockingbird reveals a great deal about the characters by setting the stage, introducing main characters, and hinting at the central themes and conflicts. The Finch family is at the center, with Atticus Finch, a lawyer, who represents morality and justice, and his children, Scout and Jem, whom we watch mature and confront the complexities of their world. The setting of Maycomb, Alabama, is crucial, as it embodies the attitudes and mores of the American South in the 1930s. Throughout the exposition, the characters engage in dialogue that not only gives backstory but also reveals their personalities, relationships, and the societal norms that shape their behaviors. This portion of the novel also examines how people may not always be what they seem, with some characters wearing 'masks' or veiling their true identities, a theme that is further explored throughout the book.

Chimps can use sign language to talk to their trainers. Monkeys can learn to count. A crow can figure out how to use a stick to get at that hard-to-reach grub. Chickens can learn to play checkers. Even worms can be taught to run mazes. So which animal is the smartest? You're probably thinking that chimps are smarter than chickens. And that crows are smarter than worms. And that you’re smarter than all of them.
Which element of this passage tells you that the writer's purpose is to give you information about animal intelligence?
The writer explains which animals can perform tricks.
The writer knows that humans are the smartest animals of all.

Despite his running into a storm, the hiker arrived home safely.
"his" is what kind of pronoun?
Possessive,his is a possessive pronoun
What is one reason that it is important for hikers to filter the water they drink?
The answer to this question only depends on what kind of water they drink.
If they drink purified botteled water then they don´t need to filter it, but if they drink muddy water or swamp water the water may contain lots of bacteria and insects like parasites. So with this I conclude that for hikers it is only important to filter the water if it needs to be filtered.
It is important for hikers to filter water to remove pathogens and prevent waterborne illnesses like diarrhea and hepatitis A, as untreated water from natural sources can contain harmful microorganisms.
One key reason that it is important for hikers to filter the water they drink is to remove impurities and pathogens that can cause illness. Water found in the environment, including streams and lakes, often contains microorganisms such as bacteria, protozoa, and viruses that can lead to waterborne diseases like diarrhea, cholera, and hepatitis A.
Even though filtration is an essential step, it does not always eliminate all contaminants, so disinfection methods like chlorination are also employed to improve water safety. Diseases from unsafe drinking water are a significant global health issue, contributing to millions of deaths and illnesses annually, especially in children.
Therefore, filtration alongside disinfection is crucial for ensuring safe drinking water for outdoor enthusiasts to prevent the spread of diseases.
Which sentence is a claim that is both arguable and defensible? O A. Mobile phones are bad for most individuals, especially children. O B. Mobile phones can be used for good or evil. O C. Giving children mobile phones can protect them in emergencies. O D. Children should not be given mobile phones.
The correct answer is C. Giving children mobile phones can protect them in emergencies
Explanation:
In writing and speech, a claim is usually a short statement that summarizes and expresses the position of the author in regards to some topic or situation, which is also called the thesis statement. Ideally, a claim should be both arguable and defensible, the first feature means the claim should not state a fact or a personal judgment, but a position that needs to be explained and proved; on the other hand the defensible feature means the claim can be supported and defended through evidence. Considering this, from the options presented the one that is an arguable and defensible claim is "Giving children mobile phones can protect them in emergencies" because this shows a position and not only one fact or opinion, but also, needs from evidence and support from the author to be explained and defended.
Final answer:
The defensible and arguable claim is that giving children mobile phones can protect them in emergencies. This statement can be supported by reasons related to safety and coordination between children and parents, yet it is a topic of debate due to concerns about the impact on children's development and focus.
Explanation:
The sentence that constitutes a claim that is both arguable and defensible is C. Giving children mobile phones can protect them in emergencies. This claim is defensible with evidence showing that parents often provide mobile phones to children for safety purposes, allowing them to be in touch in case of emergencies. Furthermore, the claim is arguable because it can spark a debate regarding at what age children should be given access to smartphones, the impact of smartphones on children's development, and the need for safety compared to the potential risks of early exposure to technology.
Indeed, it is a common belief that the use of cell phones by children can lead to lower levels of concentration and focus. Nevertheless, there is a growing acknowledgment of the value of smartphones as educational tools in certain contexts, as they provide access to information and learning resources.
Research by Odgers (2018) indicates that smartphones have diverse effects on teens, suggesting that the outcomes of smartphone use can be beneficial or detrimental depending on the individual circumstances. Moreover, statistics from Auxier et al. (2020) reveal that many parents believe it is acceptable for children 12 and older to have a phone while also acknowledging the potential negative effects.
