Is College a scam?
What’s ways it can, and can’t be??
Answer:
college isn't a scam but if they charge a very ridiculous price, then maybe it is a scam. So like for example, in reality classes woud cost 1,000 and to the maximum 3,000,but if they charge you 70,000 or like millions and millions and make up an excuse about the price, then it probably is a scam. But college classes will help you in your career.

Read this passage from your science course. (The passage is from the lesson on speed.)
Speed—also called average speed—is an idea you live with every day. Sometimes you want to know how fast something is moving or can move. You may be interested in auto racing and want to know how fast one of the cars can go. You may be a goalie on your soccer team—and you want to know how fast the ball can be coming at you. To calculate speed, you can use a simple scientific formula r = d/t. The r stands for rate of motion (speed), the d stands for distance, and the t stands for time. So speed is equal to distance divided by time.
Which answer best describes the structure of this passage?
A. a definition of speed, followed by several examples of speed in action
B. description of event related to speed, followed by a definition of average speed
C. rules for calculating speed in different settings, followed by examples
D. everyday examples of questions about speed, followed by the rule for figuring out speed

Which text from the passage develops the element of suspense?
adapted from Chapter I of The Legends of King Arthur
by James Knowles
The Prophecies of Merlin, and the Birth of Arthur
King Vortigern the usurper sat upon his throne in London, when, suddenly, upon a certain day, ran in a breathless messenger, and cried aloud—
"Arise, Lord King, for the enemy is come. They have sworn by a great oath, Lord, to slay thee, ere this year be done. Even now they march towards thee as the north wind of winter for bitterness and haste."
At those words Vortigern's face grew white as ashes. Rising in confusion and disorder, he sent for all the best craftsmen and mechanics, and commanded them to go and build him in the furthest of his lands a great and strong castle where he might fly for refuge—"and, moreover," cried he, "let the work be done within a hundred days from now, or I will surely spare no life amongst you all."
Then all the host of craftsmen, fearing for their lives, found out a proper site whereon to build the tower, and eagerly began to lay in the foundations. But no sooner were the walls raised up above the ground than all their work was overwhelmed and broken down by night invisibly, no man perceiving how, or by whom, or what.
The king was filled with mixed rage and fear.He called for the astrologers and wizards, and took counsel with them.The wizards worked their spells, and declared that nothing but the blood of a youth born without mortal father, smeared on the foundations of the castle, could make it stand. Messengers were therefore sent through all the land to find such a child. As some of them went down a certain village street, they saw a band of lads fighting. They heard them shout at one—"Avaunt, thou imp!—avaunt! Son of no mortal man! Go, find thy father, and leave us in peace."
At that the messengers looked steadfastly on the lad, and asked who he was. One said his name was Merlin. Another said that his birth and parentage were known by no man. A third said that the foul fiend alone was his father. Hearing the things, the officers seized Merlin, and carried him before the king by force.
But no sooner was he brought to him than he asked in a loud voice, for what cause he was thus dragged there?
"My magicians," answered Vortigern, "told me to seek out a man that had no human father, and to sprinkle my castle with his blood, that it may stand."
"Order those magicians," said Merlin, "to come before me, and I will convict them of a lie."
The king was astonished at his words, but commanded the magicians to come and sit down before him. Then said Merlin to the king—
"I pray, Lord, that workmen may be ordered to dig deep down into the ground till they shall come to a great pool of water."
This then was done, and the pool discovered far beneath the surface of the ground.
Then said Merlin to the king, "Command this pool to be drained, and at the bottom shall be found two dragons, which now are sleeping, but which at night awake and fight and tear each other."
The king commanded the pool to be forthwith drained. Surely at the bottom of it did they presently discover the two dragons, fast asleep, as Merlin had declared.
But Vortigern sat upon the brink of the pool till night to see what else would happen.
Then those two dragons, one of which was white, the other red, rose up and began to fight. They cast forth fire with their breath. In the end the red dragon was worsted, and the white dragon disappeared.
When their battle was done, the king desired Merlin to tell him what it meant. Merlin burst into tears and cried out this prophecy, which first foretold the coming of King Arthur.
A. He called for the astrologers and wizards, and took counsel with them.
B. "Avaunt, thou imp!—avaunt! Son of no mortal man! Go, find thy father, and leave us in peace."
C. "I pray, Lord, that workmen may be ordered to dig deep down into the ground till they shall come to a great pool of water."
D. In the end the red dragon was worsted, and the white dragon disappeared.

A.They provide shade in the summer heat.
B.They also provide food for many animals.
C.Live oak trees just blend into the landscape.
D.Each live oak tree can produce thousands of acorns.

C.Oak trees provide a very important food source for animals.
D.The height of an oak tree is its most important feature.
First Passage: The Northern Red Oak
The northern red oak is a grand-looking tree. It can grow as high as 75 feet tall. The fall season brings shorter days and cooler temperatures. Fall also brings changes to the leaves of the northern red oak. Leaves turn from green to shades of yellow, orange, and red, which is an amazing sight. It makes the northern red oak an eye-catching stand out among other trees in the oak family.
In summer, the gray rough branches of the northern red oak grow long and wide. This is the season when branches can become overly long and heavy. The weight of the branches' leaves adds even more pounds. If the growth of the tree is not managed, the entire appearance of the tree can be changed. Early trimming helps groom the tree and keeps it from looking like a rounded triangle by summer's end.
Both the size and the shape of the northern red oak's leaves are especially interesting. It is easy to find leaves that are larger than a man's hand. They often have 8 or more pointed fingers. That makes northern red oak leaves look like large, flattened evergreen trees.
Residents in the Midwest especially enjoy the beauty of their northern red oaks in October. A common sight is to see people walking or relaxing under them. They gaze up, watching the colored leaves dance in the cool fall breeze, knowing that winter will soon come to take the leaves away.
Second Passage: The Hardy Live Oak
The live oak tree is one of the toughest trees found in the United States. It is not a tall tree. It grows only 30 to 40 feet high. But its branches are broad and strong. The branches make up for the tree's rather short height. How? The branches stretch out from the trunk like thick arms on a giant. The leaves on the branches are simple. They are oval in shape. They glisten in the sun. Most importantly, live oak leaves are always there. Live oaks stay green all year round.
The live oak is also a fast growing tree. It is often planted in the lawns of new houses. This lets people living in the house have shade in just a few years. However, the owner of the tree needs to keep the lower branches trimmed. If the lower branches are not trimmed, over time the lower tree limbs will grow downward toward the ground. These branches will seem to almost slither like a snake. In time, they will be only inches above the ground. They will also spread out over the lawn for up to 25 feet from the trunk of the tree.
The live oak tree is popular for a very important reason. It can live in very hot weather. Strong sunlight does not kill it. People in the southern United States see so many live oaks that they no longer really notice them. Live oak trees just blend into the landscape. Yet, live oaks contribute to the landscape in many ways. They provide shade in the summer heat. They also provide food for many animals. Each live oak tree can produce thousands of acorns. Squirrels are just one type of animal that scurries to feast on the little brown nuts. Live oaks are certainly a treasure in hot places with harsh sunny weather.
The sentence which best explains why the author says the live oak trees are a treasure in hot places is "They provide shade in the summer heat." (option A)
The sentence which express a main idea developed in both passages is "The features of oak trees benefit the places where they grow." (option B)
What are the passages about?Both passages describe types of oak trees, naming their characteristics and advantages. One idea that is developed in both passages is that oak trees benefit the places where they grow. They provide:
ShadeFoodShelterPrecisely because they provide shade, oak trees are described as a "treasure in hot places." People get to sit underneath the leafy tree to escape the scorching heat of summer, for example.

Summers can be very hot and it could be hard on the animals and the people working at the shelter, the workers have to work outside at cleaning up the dirt in the yards and helping animals that can't shelter indoors like horses, etc.

Read the stanza from "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe.
Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
"Wretch," I cried, "thy God hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee
Respite—respite and nepenthe, from thy memories of Lenore;
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost Lenore!"
Quoth the Raven "Nevermore."
Which line of the stanza contains an allusion?
"Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe and forget this lost Lenore!"
"Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor."
"'Wretch," I cried, "thy God hath lent thee—by these angels he hath sent thee"
"Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer"
Answer:
"Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor."
Explanation:
the narrator references the Bible by referencing Seraphim, six-foot tall winged creatures whose job in biblical lore was to fly around God’s throne and praise him by repeating “Holy” over and over. These Seraphim are similar to the raven in the fact that they can only say one word.

The Roman Colosseum was built in 70 AD. This structure was built to seat over 50,000 people and has 80 entrances. This larger than life structure has survived through time, especially through both World War I and World War II. Time has only glorified this structure and made it one of the seven wonders of this world.
How does the use of the phrase time has only glorified clarify why the Colosseum is now one of the wonders of the world?
A.
It conveys that time has increased its beauty.
B.
It conveys that it has become a popular place of worship over the years.
C.
It conveys that time has made it stronger.
D.
It conveys that it has become more brightly lit over the years.
Answer:
B- it conveys that it has become popular place of worship over the years
The Colosseum is now one of the wonders of the world as It conveys that it has become a popular place of worship over the years Option(b) is correct.
What is Roman Colosseum?After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, the Colosseum started to crumble. A progression of tremors during the fifth century A.D. harmed the design, and it likewise experienced disregard.
Found only east of the Roman Forum, the gigantic stone amphitheater known as the Colosseum was authorized around A.D. 70-72 by Emperor Vespasian of the Flavian tradition as a gift to the Roman public. Combatants were generally hostage slaves until they were liberated.
It is exceptionally uncommon that a liberated individual would battle in the field however a liberated individual could readily acknowledge servitude if they had any desire to battle. Challenges were ordinarily single battle between two men of comparative size and experience. Arbitrators administered the activity, and presumably halted the battle when one of the members was genuinely injured.
Therefore Option(b) is correct.

According to "Robots Are Cool, but AI is the Future," how does the use of robots affect humans?
Robots will replace people in their jobs and make them unemployable.
Robots follow instructions to perform everyday tasks for humans, such as vacuuming.
Robots can make life easier for humans because they can research and problem solve.
Robots can translate foreign languages, making it easier for people from different countries to communicate.
Answer:
Humans are better off without robots.
Explanation:
sure robots can make a lot of work easy for humans, but then it's not work. humans will get lazier, which will lead them to become fatter, which will lead them to becoming unhealthier, which will lead them to becoming more prone to diseases, which will lead to whole lot other things.
There will also be less jobs, so more unemployememt, and poorer people.
If robots answer all of our questions, them humans wont bother learning, and there will be less education. Simalarly, if they translate foreign languages then we wont try learning them ourselves.
