How could healthcare be improved for the elderly
Answer:
Explanation:
With the Baby Boomer and Generation X groups getting older each day, the country is facing the reality that by 2025, one quarter of the workforce will be above 55,”The problem doesn’t only lie in the fact that Americans are living longer. They’re also, generally speaking, more sick. The CDC recently noted that the number of individuals suffering from Alzheimer’s would double by the year 2060, and the rise of chronic illness affects nearly half of all adults in the U.S. Seniors are also more likely to experience macular degeneration and life threatening dental problems. This inevitably puts a strain on an already overburdened and understaffed healthcare system. Here are some ways we can fix this problem
Creating comprehensive patient assessments that include a complete review of all medical, psychosocial, lifestyle, and patient values
Creation and implementation of an evidenced-based plan of care that addresses all of the patient’s health-related needs
Communication and coordination with all who provide care for the patient in question
Promotion of the patient’s (and their caregiver’s) engagement in their own healthcare

Compare both passages below. What is the purpose of each passage? How does
each passage use supporting details to support its specific purpose?
Passage 1:
Your next tablet should be the upcoming G2 tablet, which is hitting stores this
Thursday. Tired of the slow, glitchy performance of your old, tired tablet? Sick
of having to install update after update, patch after patch, only to deal with the
same subpar performance? Frustrated with the lack of exciting, useful apps
for
your tablet? Treat yourself to the new G2 tablet, on sale Thursday at all A-
Mart locations near you!
Passage 2:
The new G2 tablet is seven inches tall, five inches wide, and a half-inch thick.
It uses the Roboto operating system, which will allow many popular apps and
programs to run on the machine. Most people bring their G2 tablets on the
train or bus and take advantage of the included Wi-Fi card. This convenient,
portable, and useful device will help users run their lives while running their
errands. The G2 tablet is available for purchase at A-Mart starting this
Thursday
Answer:
Passage 1 and passage 2 are similar because both passages are promoting the new G2 tablet, They're different because passage 1 talks about the cons of your old tablet while passage 2 only talks about the good things of the G2 tablet. The purpose of both passages are to endorse the G2 tablet. Passage 1 uses supporting details by using the statement "tired of the slow, glitchy performance of your old, tired tablet? " and supports it up by using examples of the downfalls of your old tablet as supporting details. Passage 2 uses supporting details by saying ''This convenient, portable, and useful device will help users run their lives while running their errands." and backs that statement up by telling the reader the pros of the tablet using that as supporting details. And the authors purpose is to persuade and inform you about the G2 Tablet.

song of the open road by Walt Whitman afoot and light-hearted, i take to the open road, healthy, free, the world before me, the long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose. Henceforth I ask not good-fortune—i myself am good-fortune; henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing, strong and content, I travel the open road. . . .from this hour, freedom! From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines, going where I list, my own master, total and absolute, listening to others, and considering well what they say, pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me. I inhale great draughts of space; the east and the west are mine, and the north and the south are mine. I am larger, better than I thought; I did not know I held so much goodness. all seems beautiful to me; I can repeat over to men and women, you have done such good to me, i would do the same to you. I will recruit for myself and you as I go; I will scatter myself among men and women as I go; I will toss the new gladness and roughness among them; whoever denies me, it shall not trouble me; whoever accepts me, he or she shall be blessed, and shall bless me.
Part a) what is a theme of "song of the open road"?
taking a vacation allows someone to spend meaningful time with friends and family.
traveling is a freeing experience that allows for independence and self-reflection.
being rooted in one place doing everyday activities is better than wandering alone on the open road.
only when people are traveling can they truly prioritize the needs of others over their own needs.
Part b) which two quotes from the poem best help Whitman develop the theme identified in part a?
"from this hour, freedom! / from this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines,"
"I can repeat over to men and women, you have done such good to me, I would do the same to you."
"pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, / gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me."
"I will recruit for myself and you as i go; / i will scatter myself among men and women as I go;"

I think I can help. When do you need this due?
Explanation:
So I have an English assignment talking about how poor communities have less availability to fresh food, so all I need is a 6 sentence paragraph about, "what are the effects of a person’s social status?". "social status" just means like, if you're poor, rich, of middle (like you're not super rich or poor). But anyway that's all I really hope you can help me out, k thank you so much!
Answer:
sure!
Explanation:
Social status has a lot to do with availability to things that you need. We will start with a poor or less fortunate person, a less fortunate person could have trouble paying for things such as food or clothing and could have trouble taking care of themselves and their family so we should do whatever we can to help the poor community. Next, we will talk about the middle class, middle class is when you are not rich or poor a middle-class person could easily pay for things needed and things wanted but depending on if they are lower middle class or higher depends on what they could buy. Lastly, we will be talking about the rich or the more fortunate ones, the rich class is easily able to buy things needed and they can support themselves and their family easily and can buy expensive things. So as you can see there are 3 classes of net worth you can have. Whichever class you are on depends on what you can afford.

Directions: Martin Luther King, Jr.’s "Letter from Birmingham Jail" includes many examples of figurative language meant to persuade people to take action. Read the lines from the letter and identify ONE type of figurative language (some excerpts may contain more than one), its meaning, its effect on mood and tone, and its effect on the audience. An example has been completed for you. Then, answer the analysis question.
2. Like a boil that can never be cured as long as it is covered up but must be opened with all its pus-flowing ugliness to the natural medicines of air and light, injustice must likewise be exposed, with all of the tension its exposing creates, to the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion before it can be cured.
Type of figurative language:
Meaning of figurative language:
Effect on tone and mood:
Effect on audience:
Answer:
light of human conscience
Type of figurative language:
Metaphor
Meaning of figurative language:
Just as the human conscience always reminds us of the truth it is compared to light because of its transparency.
Effect on tone and mood:
It has a serious tone and creates a solemn mood
Effect on audience:
It makes the audience reflect on their conscience which tells them that injustice is wrong as illuminating and right.
Explanation:
A Metaphor is a figurative language that links an object directly to another. The reason why a metaphor is used is to make the audience imagine what the author is talking about.
Since the object being linked to the words the author wishes to use is very relatable to the audience, it makes the thoughts easier to convey and more real to the audience. This is what Martin Luther King aims to achieve when he linked light to the human conscience.
