What is today….Oh yeah, I almost forgot it is my Birthday. Hi, my name is Mia (something), and this is the story of my crazy life. I am turning 14 today, and right now I am wishing i was not. And if you are wondering why, here is the reason. My parents just divorce, like as in today at this very moment as I speak, I mean write but you know what I mean. And they want me to choose who to live with. And honestly like every 14-year-old, all we can think about is how now we get everything double, so yea I am kind of happy but also, I feel like this is my fault. Because honestly if it was not my fault why have I been mentioned every single time they fought. And you might be wondering what I am talking about so here is a little background information. My parents meet at age 14 and 16, and my mom got pregnant at 17. So, my dad’s parents wanted my mom and my dad to get married after my mom gave birth to me. But after they got married they were always fighting about everything but mainly it was either about money or about how my mother can’t ever get any fresh air because he was always telling her what to do and the same topic ended about me. Yet it still does until about like today, that they are divorced completely. But let’s not think about that right now let’s think about the fact that they haven’t even took a minute or second to say happy birthday, they don’t always say that but I will at least take it for the years I was told the next day.
Thursday July 15th, 2021
Hey today is the next day so (July 15, 2020) today like always I get told Happy Birthday how exciting, but I wish I got it told the correct day, but I have worst news. So first I have to choose between both my parents and now that I got more information so if I go with my mom we are going to Canada and if I go with my dad I go to Alaska, wow can’t believe it but luckily I got one good thing I get to stay for the first semester so I can at least have time with my friends, talking about friends those are the ones who after the first semester I’m going to leave behind. So, keeping count of how people I have to say goodbye too.

Answer:
A. The names of the winning couple are announced—Ryan and Cora. Cora cries tears of joy. --> 5. resolution
B. The crowd cheers the couples on the dance floor. Ryan and Cora are dancing well, but Cora feels stabs of pain. Still, she is determined not to let Ryan down. --> 3. climax
C. Ryan and Cora walk to the school gym. They are ready to compete in the dance contest. --> 1. exposition

Explanation:
Exposition is the very beginning a story, where the author introduces the characters, the setting and other elements or pieces of information that will contextualize the story.
Rising action takes place after the introduction, the exposition. It is usually an event in a plot that creates the condition for conflicts to appear.
Climax is the moment of most tension in the plot, when the biggest conflict needs to be solved by the main characters.
Falling action is the opposite of rising action, taking place after the climax and being characterized by a decrease in tension. We can already see where things are going to end.
Finally, resolution is the conclusion of the story, its closing.
Let's put each part of the story in its correct place so that you can see how the plot unfolds according to the explanation above:
C. Ryan and Cora walk to the school gym. They are ready to compete in the dance contest. --> 1. exposition

Question 4 (5 points)
An effective conclusion to an expository text should (5 points)
Answer:
It summarized the text but doesn't restate it word for word
Explanation:
Use the following excerpt to answer the question.
"To help manage the national government, monarchs hired loyal civil servants typically born in the towns and educated at local universities. Their perspectives were national, not regional. The state, in the person of the monarch, now had sovereignty, or the utmost authority in decision making and in maintaining order. Everyone, including the nobles, was subordinate to that authority. . . .With sovereignty, the monarch now had the right to make laws for the entire nation and all its people."
How did the establishment of nations expand the power and reach of government?
Answer:
The laws and policies of national governments affected greater numbers of people.
Explanation:
Remember, from the excerpt after telling us the monarch was the only one with authority to make laws, we are told that, "Everyone, including the nobles, was subordinate to that authority,...With sovereignty, the monarch now had the right to make laws for the entire nation and all its people."
In other words, we can say that the type of national government that existed under this system of government was one where everyone or a greater number of people were affected by the laws and policies instituted.

how your business operates and decide to make some improvements. A few weeks later, you give

Base your speech on what you have read in Text C, but be careful to use your own words. Address
each of the three bullet points.
Begin your speech: 'My company, General Dexterity....
Write about 250 to 350 words.
My company, General Dexterity, is a technology company that works with the creation of machines that can replace human labor in factories and make production faster, more efficient and more dynamic. To achieve these objectives, we have a team of programmers and engineers who have been working daily to develop software and hardware capable of leading our company to progress and we have achieved, our company has been successful and we have achieved good results in our projects.
However, something has worried me about our team of programmers. After many observations, I discovered that our programmers are being subjected to abusive working hours that are harmful to their health and productivity. Programmers are working on abusive hours, which promotes poor quality food and rest. At all times, I see them extremely tired and unmotivated, although they continue to do their jobs excellently. This has worried me, because if our programmers continue with these routines they will have health problems and our productivity will decrease.
After thinking about it, I decided that some changes should be made to improve the quality of our team. First, I decided that the team of programmers will be divided into sub-teams that will work on different shifts and on different projects, to promote rest. In addition, I stipulated that all programmers must have a schedule for meals. Nevertheless, the deadline for the completion of the projects will increase by three days.
I believe that the changes will be beneficial for the company and that the result will be very promising.

Should graffiti be illegal, yes or no? Give reasons or evidence to support your claim.
Answer:
I do believe graffiti should be illegal.
Explanation:
The official definition of graffiti is, "writing or drawings scribbled, scratched, or sprayed illicitly on a wall or other surface in a public place". Meaning that graffiti is a form of vandalism. And because vandalism is illegal, I don't think any other forms of it should be considered 'ok'. That is my opinion on the subject. Note my 'opinion'.
Answer:
Graffiti that hasn't been approved should be illegal. It cost money to get the graffiti covered or removed. It is considered vandalism anyway when someone pains or draws on someone else property without their approval. So, yes, graffiti should be illegal IF it hasn't been approved by the county or the owners or county area etc.
Explanation:
The phrase, "Closes its wings and shrinks, a frightened bird" is an example of
A
metaphor.
В
paradox.
С
simile.
D
euphemism.
Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
Let's use process of elimination to find this answer. It's not option A because a metaphor is comparing two things without using the words like or as. It's not option C because simile is comparing two things WHILE using like or as. It's not option D because euphemism is usually a statement that seems to be too harsh. Therefore the answer is option B or "paradox" and that's because paradox is a statement that while seems to be false through investigation can be proven true.
Hope this helps.
The answer is B. Paradox
The answer is option B or "paradox" and that's because paradox is a statement that while seems to be false thorough investigation can be proven true.

How are the Novel and Movie different from each other in The Boy in The Striped Pajamas?
Answer:well in the movie it leaves out some parts that are in the novel pleas tell me if I need to be more specific
Explanation:
There are two major differences, the ending and the POV of the stories.
In the book, everything is told from Bruno’s perspective and he really knows nothing about the horrors of the camps and the Holocaust. In the movie, its told by a 3rd person POV.
In the ending of the book, no one knows what happened to Bruno. Elsa and Gretel head home but weeks later they find Bruno’s clothes near the camp. In the movie, Gretel and Elsa have a huge search through the camp to try and find Bruno. At the end they find his clothes and a hole dug under the fence, that’s how they found out he died.
There were a lot of other changes. One was, in the movie Lieutenant Kotler was sent away because Brunos dad found out his father fled the country at the start of the war, making him potential unfaithful to the Nazis. In the book, it was implied that Elsa was having an affair with Kotler. Bruno’s dad found out about the affair and sent him away.

Which is the best example of a strong conclusion?
Finally, I'd like to say that everyone in the sixth grade thinks that we need more recess time. It's not fair that the
younger students get more time on the playground.
In closing, recess allows kids to have fun with their friends and move their bodies. If kids do not have recess, they
will not sit still in class and focus on their work. That's what I think.
So those are the reasons I think this is an important issue. If parents and teachers want kids to do well in school,
they should listen to my advice.
To summarize, exercise and fresh air are very important for healthy children. One way to provide more exercise and
fresh air at school is to provide extra recess. More time outside ensures healthier students.
