A large number of people consider reading fiction a waste of time. However, reading is highly beneficial.
Psychology professors
recently discovered that reading improves social awareness and boosts emotional growth. According to an experiment conducted by
specialists in behavioral psychology
, the tendency to appreciate stories makes a person more empathetic. Reading makes you more open to understanding human thoughts and motives. An interesting survey undertaken by
noted psychology expert Elizabeth Sawyer
showed that, on average, readers are more comfortable dealing with complex social situations. The famous American author F. Scott Fitzgerald once wrote, “The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function."

punctuate the following sentence How happy I was to meet my sister
(1) The Mayas and the Aztecs grew "chocolate" trees near
their homes. (2) The seeds from the trees were really cool.
(3) They were used in place of money. (4) They were also
used to make a chocolate drink.
How should the underlined words be written so that sentence 2 has the right
tone?
O A. Were totally useful
B. Had great value
C. Had a ton of uses
D. Were way important
Answer:
B. Had great value
Explanation:
The words that are underlined in sentence 2 are were really cool. This type of language, which we usually use in everyday conversations with our friends, isn't used in informational texts, i.e. texts that give us information about a certain topic. Instead, we should use more formal language. The best substitute would be the words had great value.
Option A is incorrect because it also contains informal language (totally useful - very useful would be better).
Option C also isn't formal enough (had a ton of uses - had many uses is a better version).
Option D is incorrect because the given combination of words isn't correct. Something can't be way important. It can just be very important.
This is why option B is correct.

The first characteristic is also the most complex: composition. The composition usually involves smaller geometric
shapes that are repeated, creating rhythm. A grid of either equilateral triangles or squares is used as a foundation, but
sometimes a twist on the triangle grid-a hexagonal grid-is used instead. Circles, squares, and straight lines provide the
basis for the pattern, which is interlaced, combined, and duplicated in order to create a beautiful design. In mathematics,
these grids of repeated figures are called tessellations, a word which is derived from the Latin word tessere, meaning
“pieces of mosaic." A tessellation repeats a polygon over and over to tile a plane.
To boost fluency, which words should be practiced ?

C. tessere
b. tessellations
d. all of the above

many families give teens a weekly allowance some require that the teen preform household chores or maintain good grades in school others simply give allowances to teach there child to be financially responsible. do you believe teens should receive allowances write a letter to your local parents accosiation discussing your position and backing it up with details Marlena wrote this claim in response to the prompt
Answer
yes
Explanation:
dear "mom/dad/parent/ect"
I believe that teens should receive allowance because giving teens an allowance can help instill positive money habits, financial experts say. ... One of the biggest debates for parents around allowances is whether to tie them to chores. Taub believes chores should be done because kids are contributing household members, not because of financial incentive.
Giving your teen an allowance will help them learn to make those same budgeting decisions. If they overspend one week, they'll have to budget better the next week. These little lessons can be helpful in teaching about the balancing act that budgeting requires.

Hello. You did not say what text this question refers to, which makes it impossible for the question to be answered accurately. However, to try to help you, I will show you how you can find the main argument of a text. I hope this helps.
The main argument of a text is usually found in the first sentence of the text, with the other phrases being used to support and prove the relevance of the argument and the accuracy it has. It can happen the other way around too, and the main argument is in the last sentence.
In short, an author's main argument in the text is the idea he is defending. This idea can be identified because the author is positioning himself on something, showing something that must be observed.

Answer:
establishing a colony based on religious principles.
Explanation:
Puritans were a very religious society and had all their constituents, concepts, traditions, activities and skills focused on religion and the worship of the Christian God. As they were persecuted and prevented from establishing the religious principles that they defended in England, they decided to immigrate to America, where they would establish a Puritan colony totally focused on religious principles, where they could usurp them without suffering persecution and reprisals.

Having a high school diploma is a goal to my future. With it I would be able to get a degree, and have the option to begin my career. My principle objective in the wake of finishing high school is to find a new line of work that I appreciate. I will likewise require an occupation that will accommodate my family. Without it, I would simply have the option to find a new line of work that would scarcely pay for the gas to land to that position. It might take me a few months longer than most to get it, yet I will have a feeling of pride from realizing that I have finished it. I will have the option to show my children that it doesn't make a difference when you accomplish your objective, yet that you have the determination to finish it.

Write an essay in which you argue whether or not this technology purchase will improve students’ lives.
Technologies have facilitated the study, research and the search for new information. This has helped students worldwide, as it allows research to be done quickly and to be global in nature, as the use of technology allows research to be done in any language and anywhere in the world.
In this case, we can say that yes, the use of technologies is beneficial for students and can greatly improve their academic life and knowledge.
However, it is important to note that for these improvements to be noticed, there must be a good use of these technologies. This is because the ease of looking for distractions and finding irrelevant subjects is high, which indicates that to obtain academic advantages.
Therefore, the student needs to police himself and be regulated when it comes to using technology to improve his study and when to use it for fun.
Mrs. Bertha Flowers was the aristocrat of Black Stamps. She had the grace of control to appear warm in the coldest weather, and on the Arkansas summer days it seemed she had a private breeze which swirled around, cooling her. She was thin without the taut look of wiry people, and her printed voile dresses and flowered hats were as right for her as denim overalls for a farmer. She was our side's answer to the richest white woman in town.
Based on the passage, the reader can infer that Marguerite values
authority.
culture.
privacy.
wealth.
Answer:
culture
Explanation:
Mrs. Bertha Flowers is a character in the book entitled, "I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings." She's a black aristocrat who was very helpful to Maya (Marguerite) after Maya was raped. Maya admire her for being educated and well-mannered. She became Maya's role model. Maya describes Bertha as being poised and appearing calm. This social habit is part of Bertha's "culture" because of her social status in life. Clearly, this is something that Maya valued in life.

In Act I, Scene 1 of The Diary of Anne Frank, compare the setting to the action that occurs in the scene. Is the mood of the setting hopeful, frightening, or something else? Compare this to the actions of the scene to discuss how the setting and plot do or do not work together. Use specific quotations and examples in your response of about 150 words.
Answer:
It is very frightening because they can get caught easily and if they do, they will most likely get killed right there, tortured, or go to a concentration camp. They all are hoping not to get caught by the Nazis and hoping they have enough food when all this ends. It is frightening for the people who are hiding in the Secret Annex because if they make any noise between 6 a.m to 8 p.m the people who work down there will hear them and they will turn them in. They are also starting to argue who gets more food, which will turn out bad if they keep doing that. It would be very frightening if I was them and I wouldn't know what to think. The Nazis are at every block in the streets and if they see them through a window or such sort are getting killed. That's why I think it is very frightening.
