Read this excerpt.

I must close now. But before closing I am impelled to mention one other point in your statement that troubled me profoundly. You warmly commended the Birmingham police force for keeping “order” and “preventing violence.” I don’t believe you would have so warmly commended the police force if you had seen its angry violent dogs literally biting six unarmed, nonviolent Negroes. I don’t believe you would so quickly commend the policemen if you would observe their ugly and inhuman treatment of Negroes here in the city jail; if you would watch them push and curse old Negro women and young Negro girls; if you would see them slap and kick old Negro men and young Negro boys; if you will observe them, as they did on two occasions, refuse to give us food because we wanted to sing our grace together. I’m sorry that I can’t join you in your praise for the police department.

In his “Letter from Birmingham City Jail,” how does Martin Luther King, Jr. connect the public and private actions of the police?


They are both meant to avoid punishment.


They are both meant to show nonviolence.


They are both meant to earn commendation.


They are both meant to preserve segregation.

In the students are to be corrected immediately. Select one: a. The communicative Method b. Audio Lingual Question 2. In Grammar - Translation Method the teacher must be a native speaker of the target language taught at the classroom. Select one: True False​

Answers

Answer:

B. Audio-lingual method

False

Explanation:

The audio-lingual method is a method of teaching foreign languages based on the behaviorist theory, according to which new behaviors can be taught through positive reinforcement. As errors form bad habits, they are immediately corrected by the teacher, while correct responses are immediately positively reinforced.

The grammar-translation method is a method of teaching foreign languages based on the classical method of teaching Greek and Latin, where students learn grammatical rules and then apply them by translating sentences between the language they are learning and their native language. Classes taught by this method are taught in their native language, which means that the teacher doesn't have to be a native speaker of the target language. They should be a native speaker of the students' native language and possess the knowledge of the target language.

How to Build a Card House
Building card houses is a fun way to spend a rainy
afternoon. All you need is a deck of cards and a large floor
area. Begin by forming an upside-down V with two cards.
Place several of these in a row close together. Place a
third and fourth card horizontally on either side of each
upside-down V. This will help stabilize the base. Then,
you can layer cards across the tops of the V's. This will
become the floor of your second level. Continue building
V's, walls, and roofs until you run out of cards. See how
high you can make your card house before it falls down.
Read the passage carefully. How can the speaker
strengthen this statement: "Place several of these in a
row close together"? Select two choices.
identify how much space to leave between each V
identify the types of cards to use
clarify what is meant by "several"

What advice do you have for younger kids about navigating social media?

Answers

Answer:

Be careful and limit your time

Explanation:

There are so many scary people on social media, so be careful. And, don't make it your life. There is so much more to life than social media and it is a good idea to limit your usage.

The advice I have for younger kids navigating social media is , you should always try to be careful with what you watch and browse, if something is scary you should always try to reach out to someone you trust. A lot of things are scary but you don’t have to go through things alone, You should never talk to someone online that you don’t know without asking your parents & even though you think you are grown up and think you are mature to watch things like horror and ETC, you aren’t. There are some things you aren’t ready for and especially watching videos you aren’t supposed to or even talking to people you don’t know.

Correct the 3 grammatical errors (a/an/the) in the text below. Once a year, the college goes on a expedition trip to do charity work abroad. Last year’s trip was to help set up the community garden in South America. This year’s trip will be to Kenya. The trips are expensive, but students can save an lot of money by working together and doing fundraising events.

Answers

Answer: Once a year, the college goes on (AN) expedition trip to do charity work abroad. Last year’s trip was to help set up (A) community garden in South America. This year’s trip will be to Kenya. The trips are expensive, but students can save (A) lot of money by working together and doing fundraising events.

Explanation:

“An” is used when the following word begins with a vowel, “a” is used when the following word begins with a consonant. The second sentence would use “a” instead of “the”. I don’t know how to explain how I know, but my answer is correct.

After reading the text, we can correct the three grammatical mistakes concerning the use of articles in the following manner:

... goes on an expedition...... set up a community garden...... students can save a lot of money...

When to use "a"?We use "a" to refer to something that is not specific. It should precede noun that starts with a consonant sound. In number 2 above, we should use "a" because we are not talking about one specific community garden. There is not just one community garden in South America, but many. "A" is more appropriate since it refers to any of them.In number 3, we should use "a" because "lot" begins with a consonant sound.

When to use "an"?We also use "an" refer to something that is not specific. The difference now is that it should precede a noun that starts with a vowel sound.In number 1 above, we should use "an" because "expedition" begins with a vowel sound. Notice that an expedition happens every year, and the sentence is talking about that fact in general.

When to use "the"?"The" is used to refer to something specific. The speaker is talking about a certain person, object, feeling, etc. Let's compare the sentences below:Give me a pen.Give me the pen.In number 1, the speaker is asking for any pen. He does not want a specific one. On the other hand, in number 2, the speaker wants a certain pen, and he is sure that the person he is talking to knows what pen it is.
