Which sentence should be revised to eliminate excessive wordiness??

Answers

Answer:

The first sentence is wordy, and should be revised.

My reasons:

1. A hurricane is a storm (common sense), there is no need to reiterate that.

2. An entrance to your house is a door (most of the time), there is no need to say "including the doors."

3. It would have been sufficient to just say "debris" and not "debris and other items"- because what other items?

What is the significance of the “man with the megaphone”? What does this detail tell you about the novel’s setting? Explain citing evidence from the text.

Answers

Answer:

What do u do this and other details tell you about the setting of the novel? The man with the megaphone was helping them evacuate, and they thought he had authority then when ralph blew the shell they thought he was an authority figure.

The first time the fire gets out of control it is purely unintentional - they have set a signal fire. The second time the fire gets away from them, they have started it to smoke out Ralph. The boys go from using fire as a form of civility to using it as a form of savagery.

2. Invent a more respectful way for the teacher to introduce Jin. Write it here:

3. Create a friendlier response for the kid who saw Jin eating lunch.

4. Write a more powerful response for the kid who said, "Be cool, man."

Answers

1. Mrs. Greeder assumed that Jin was from China. She also disrespected him by subtly making fun of his name. Mrs. Greeder and Timmy both assumed Jin ate dogs, which is a common stereotype directed at Asians. Many students thought Suzy and Jin were related because they were both asian, and when they found out they weren't, they started rumors saying they were in an arranged marriage.

2. She could have had him introduce himself instead of assuming things about him.

3. He could have said "What are you eating?" and not made the dog comment.

4. The kid who said "Be cool man." could have said. "Don't say things like that."

Who Knows who’s Nose this is.
I would say it’s a giants nose.
The giant made the horrible mistake of looking medusa in the eyes and his form was petrified into stone, oh this story is one of old but this picture was not so long ago, see they found the stone body of this giant and these people wanted to see the world from high upon his head.

Hi! Hope this helps!

One day, a giant stone face appeared right in the middle of a highway, next to a lake! Car horns honked, tired screeched, and there was general mayhem as people strained to avoid the giant head that had just plopped right down in the middle of the road. A few minutes later, the authorities arrived. To everyone's shock, the stone face declared:

Scratch my nose, and I shall disappear as soon as my need is satisfied!

Mostly everyone just blinked in confusion, but eventually a few bright minds grappled with some ropes and started climbing to the middle of the statue's face.

After almost twenty minutes of slipping and scrabbling, the two companions finally made it to the top of the head's nose. There was a general commotion down below as people yelled and made a fuss, but the two just wanted to go home. The first climber poked the statue's nose disdainfully.

"There," he said. "Itched."

And the statue disappeared with a pop! The disgruntled men fell to the ground and shook their heads in confusion.

"What a day," The other said.

And that is the story of the giant stone head!

Ch. 13 Trojan war How does the morality of the gods compare to that of the mortals? responses should be between 150-750 words. Choose just ONE of the following questions to answer:

Answers

Answer:

The legend of “Judgment of Paris” was believed to have started the Trojan War because the award for Paris of Troy would be the most beautiful woman, Helene, wife of the king Meleanus.

 

The legend begins at the celebration of the marriage of Peleus and Thetis (parents of Achilles), to which goddess Eris wasn’t invited. This was a great offence to Eris, so she decided to get her revenge by dividing gods with simple beauty contest. This beauty contest was true representation of the pride and narcissism of the goddesses. Eris brought one apple and said that only the fairest one. The goddesses who claimed this apple were Athena, Aphrodite and Hera. Because Zeus couldn’t decide, they decided that Paris of Troy should be the one to judge the contest. Hera offered to make him king of Europe and Asia, Athena offered wisdom and skill in war, and Aphrodite offered the world's most beautiful woman – Helen, wife of the king Meleanus. Paris accepted the Aphrodite’s offer. Paris has received Helen, but he also received the enmity of other gods, especially Athena and Hera. After this, king Meleanus began the war to retrieve his wife, which resulted in seven years of Trojan War. There is the brief allusion to the “Judgment  of Paris” in the Iliad  in lines 24.25–30.

from The Voice that Challenged a Nation: What information does this excerpt further convey about segregation? “Arriving in Savannah after an overnight trip, Marian and her mother were greeted warmly by school officials and were put up at the home of the college president. That evening an audience of nearly a thousand people turned out for the concert in Savannah’s new Municipal Auditorium, whites sitting in the boxes and dress circle, blacks in segregated orchestra or gallery seats. “[Marian] Anderson, the soloist, has one of the most remarkable voices ever heard in Savannah,” reported the Savannah Morning News.” Question 47 options: a) Marian encounters segregation, even when she is the star performer. b) Savannah offers better living conditions for African-Americans. c) Marian’s performance in Savannah inspires the audience to end segregation. d) People dislike the performance because Marian is African-American.

Answers

Answer:

a) Marian encounters segregation, even when she is the star performer.

Explanation:

Russell Freedman's non-fictional book "The Voice that Challenged a Nation" is about a famous black singer Marian Anderson. Her life as a singer, even after she's become famous, and the racial segregation that she observed and also personally encountered, ultimately led her to be one of the prominent voices of racism in America.

In the given excerpt from the book, the narrator recounts one event where Marian was invited to perform in Savannah, Georgia. There, she saw how the whites and the blacks were seated in different sections of the "Municipal Auditorium." She saw the "whites sitting in the boxes and dress circle, blacks in segregated orchestra or gallery seats," which is a massive indication of how the racial segregation still operate despite their star performer who is black herself. Thus, the passage shows how Marian encounters discrimination even when she is the star performer.

THE HARE AND THE TORTOISE
By Rob John
‘Look at me!’ said the Hare to the other animals. ‘Just look how fast I can run.’
The Hare ran across a field as fast as he could. All the animals agreed that yes the Hare was very fast. The Hare ran back.
‘See,’ he shouted. ‘I’m not even out of breath.’
‘Yeah, that was fast,’ said a Fox.
‘So who wants a race?’ said the Hare. ‘Anybody think they could beat me?’
None of the animals spoke.
‘See,’ said the Hare. ‘You’re all too scared to even try.’
‘I’ll have a go,’ said the Tortoise.
The Hare laughed. ‘You? The slow- est creature in the whole world? I’m not wasting my time racing a Tortoise.’
‘What’s the matter?’ said the Tortoise. ‘Scared I might beat you?’
Some of the animals laughed at that so the Hare said, ‘Alright then, Tortoise. Let’s have a race...right now...then we’ll see who’s laughing.’
‘Not today,’ said the Tortoise. ‘We’ll race next week. Got to do a bit of training first.’
Next morning the animals watched the Tortoise do his ‘training’. First he did some gentle stretching exer- cises to warm himself up...
...and then he started to run.
‘Has he started running yet?’ asked the Fox.
‘Hard to tell with Tortoises,’ said the Badger. ‘He’s definitely moving.’
‘Is he?’ said the Fox.
‘Tortoise, are you sure about this?’ said the Crow. ‘I mean the Hare IS very fast and you...well...’
1

‘Don’t worry,’ said the Tortoise. ‘This is just day one. I’ll speed up. You’ll see.’
On the day of the race crowds of animals came to watch. The Tortoise slowly made his way to the starting line and then suddenly...
...the Hare arrived at top speed wearing a brand new track suit and four expensive-looking trainers.
‘The race starts here.’ said the Fox pointing to a line on the ground. ‘And ends at that tree on the other side of the field. First one to touch the tree is the winner.’
‘Right, let’s get on with it,’ said the Hare. ‘Ready Tortoise? Ready to see some real speed?’
‘I’m ready,’ said the Tortoise.
‘Ready, steady...go!’ said the Fox and the race began.
The Hare roared off then stopped and looked back. The Tortoise was still crossing the starting line. The Hare ran back to the Tortoise.
‘Didn’t you hear him say go? You can start, you know.’
‘I have started,’ said the Tortoise.
‘Look,’ said the Hare. ‘You’re going so slowly I’m going to have a rest. Might even have a little sleep. I’ll finish the race when I wake up and still beat you by miles.’
The Hare lay down in the sun and fell asleep. The Tortoise kept going. Slowly, steadily he moved across the field and by evening time he was getting close to the finishing tree. Still the Hare slept on and now the animals started to get excited.
‘You know what? I think he might win,’ said a Rabbit.
‘I can’t believe it,’ said the Badger. ‘The Tortoise might actually win.’
The animals started to get excited and as the Tortoise got close to the finishing tree they started to cheer.
‘Come on Tortoise,’ they shouted. ‘Nearly there. Keep going old friend. Keep going.’
But the noise of the cheering crowd woke up the Hare. He looked across the field, saw the Tortoise about to reach the tree and in a flash he was running.
2

The Tortoise heard the Hare thund- ering up behind him but he kept going...and going...and suddenly he was there. Just in time the Tortoise touched the tree with
his nose. He’d done it. The Tortoise had beaten the Hare fair and square.
‘There you go,’ said the Badger. ‘Slow and steady’s sometimes bet- ter than fast and flashy.’
‘Not fair,’ said the Hare. ‘I was asleep. We have to run the race again. It’s not fair.’
But no-one was listening to the Hare

Their vocalizations are often described as “trills” and “hoots” and consist of short-distance “local calls” as well as long distance “broadcast calls” Leopard seals don't have many predators, but they can be very dangerous to humans.

Explanation:

Killer whales (or orcas) are powerful predators capable of killing leopard seals and great white sharks. They have also been recorded preying on usually terrestrial species such as moose swimming between islands. In the wild, there have been no fatal attacks on humans. Killer whales, or orcas, have the second-biggest brains among all ocean mammals, weighing as much as 15 pounds. It's not clear whether they are as well-endowed with memory cells as humans, but scientists have found they are amazingly well-wired for sensing and analyzing their watery, three-dimensional environment.
