Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game." "Pure imagination," said Rainsford. "One superstitious sailor can taint the whole ship's company with his fear."

He is familiar with the island and its mysterious inhabitants. He is interested in getting more information from the sailors.

The answer is: B) cost.

The tense of the clause is Present Perfect Simple, which is formed with the auxiliary verb has or have and the past participle. In this case, the verb cost is irregular - it does not take the past simple or past participle form with -ed. Actually, the past simple and the past participle forms of the verb cost do not change - the form remains the same: cost (infinitive)-cost (past simple)-cost (past participle).

Answer: the answer is letter B cost

1. What is the author’s argument in “The Many Sides of Volunteering”? How does the author support the argument? Use evidence from the text to support your response. Your response should be at least two complete paragraphs.

Answer: The authors argument is that volunteering helps many people, not just those being directly benefited in visible ways. The author uses statistics from a study to support his/her argument.

So take the information above and add lots of info and textual support to create at least 8-10 sentences. As long as you payed close attention to details this shouldn't be to hard. :)

Hope this helps!!

The authors argument is, why you should volunteer. They are stating many facts in order to persuade you into choosing the path they want you to go. With many good facts they have stated, they know they will hook you into doing so. The author uses statistics from a study to support his/her argument. Which, leads me to evidence which I took from the essay.

     An argument stated is, “Some would argue that volunteering adds significant stress to already hectic lives.” Yet, the author gives statements supporting why that argument is indeed false. The author wrote, “Interestingly, studies show that volunteering actually helps reduce stress, because individuals who volunteer report feeling a greater sense of purpose and self-worth.” Although, pretty much all of the authors writing is pretty accurate and persuasive. The author gives good clarifications onto why volunteering is good. Therefore, I say this is a well written argumentative essay.

The correct answer is "The allusions recall specific locations and horrors of the Vietnam conflict".

In this excerpt, the narrator is putting an emphasis on specific details that showcase the struggle and vulnerability of people trying to live life amidst the horrors of war. The focus of the passage is to transmit in the most graphic and vivid way, the death and destruction brought to Vietnam. Images such as bombed out hamlets, orphans begging and stealing, napalm burns on children, allude primarily to the human suffering involved.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The correct answer option is 'The allusions recall specific locations and horrors of the Vietnam conflict'.

Explanation:

In the given excerpt from "Not a Dove, But No Longer a Hawk", the allusions or expressions relate to the horrors and consequences of war.

The main highlighted issue in this passage is the intervention of the United States in the Vietnam during the Vietnam War to prevent the expansion of communism.

So the U.S. government is questioned about what right did they have in inflicting the death and destruction of the people who ended up begging to survive.

First of all I would like to describe what irony is, this techtique is employed by authors who what to expose and criticize corruption or any other topic (individual or social) by using exaggerations it is not to make people laugh but to warn people about something Swift used irony in those lines to show he incompetence of Ireland's politicians and how tyranny they could be.

The author Illustrates how the political system of Ireland works (only serving the Wealthy at the expense of the masses)

The irony in Swift's 'A Modest Proposal' lies in blaming the impoverished Irish for political issues they are not responsible for. The narrator's mocking tone intensifies this irony as Swift criticizes the British ruling class's lack of empathy.

The text in question is part of Jonathan Swift's satirical essay, 'A Modest Proposal'. The irony in the statement that the Irish 'stay at home on purpose to deliver the kingdom to the Pretender' is that it presents a wildly exaggerated accusation. The pretext is that the impoverished Irish are purposefully not going abroad or getting employment to somehow act against the British kingdom. However, in reality, their lack of mobility and employment is caused by very real systemic socio-economic issues, not any such calculated subversion.

The narrator's tone in lines 182–185 further enhances this irony. Swift ironizes the insensitivity of the British ruling class who believe the poor are at fault for their own condition. Through the mocking tone, Swift ironically blames the poverty-stricken for political conundrums they could not possibly orchestrate.

First of all, they are called indefinite pronouns. these words are not used to refer to people. they are used to refer to things. the correct used of those words depends on whether the sentence is affirmative, negative or interrogative.

"Something" most of the time is used in affirmative sentences. For example: Something is going wrong. or You have something to tell me.

St. Clare excuses his failure to act against slavery to his harsh, slave-owning twin brother, Alfred, by claiming that one man can't really make a difference. So yeah

According to a different source, this question refers to the chapters 16-20.

In these chapters, we learn about St. Clare and his opinions regarding the plantation and the slaves. We learn that, although he is a slave owner, he is undecided about his opinion regarding slaves. On the one hand, St. Clare sees the benefit of having slaves and is not particularly concerned with political or social matters. On the other hand, he is not convinced that the system is just or fair, and wonders whether it is morally wrong to be a part of it.

This ambivalence can be seen in at least two instances. The first one happens when St. Clare talks to his wife. While she is an ardent defendant of slavery, he argues that slavery only exists because someone needs to pick cotton. Another example occurs when St. Clare talks to Tom. Tom believes that St. Clare does not respect himself and should try to change his life. St. Clare takes his advice and respects his opinion, which is not always common among slaveowners.

The witches use for thier spells a variety of plants. All the ingredients are from a natural source. This is because the witches believe that the enchantments are possible thanks to the supernatural forces, so they use natural ingredients to invoke those energies.

Learning about confirmation biases has allowed me to avoid this common logical flaw in my thinking when conducting research. It prevents me from looking for information that only supports my hypothesis when conducting a literature review or deriving conslusions from my paper. In the early stages of research, for example, I do not only look for information that can support my preexisting beliefs or hypothesis, but rather I search for articles that provides a more enriching an objective information about the subject matter. In addition, In the late stage f a research paper, conclusions are derived based on objective evidence and not on preexisting beliefs.

The two details that Orwell includes to support the central idea that Snowball is ruthless are C) "'No sentimentality, comrade!' cried Snowball from whose wounds the blood was still dripping" and D) "'War is war. The only good human being is a dead one'”.

In these two excerpts from Animal Farm by George Orwell, the author shows that Snowball, a character based on Leon Trotsky, has no mercy. Although Snowball is less devious than Napoleon, he also believes in the revolution and supports a life without humans, their enemies. He becomes one of the leaders on the farm after the animals exclude Mr. Jones and, eventually, he builds himself up as an idealist.  

The key details that Orwell includes to support the central idea that Snowball is ruthless are:

-"‘No sentimentality, comrade!’ crieda Snowball from whose wounds the blood was still dripping."

-"War is war. The only good human being is a dead one."

These two quotes prove that Snowball shows no concern for the critical moment the characters are going through and for the feelings provoked in his peers. His ultimate concern is war, regardless of the subjects.
