Do you agree or disagree that not every member of our country currently is being allowed equal access to the basic human rights of life , liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? What can be done to end this divisiveness even if you think discrimination exists ?
Explanation:
Despite recognition in the Millennium Declaration of the importance of human rights, equality, and non-discrimination for development, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) largely bypassed these key principles. The fundamental human rights guarantees of equality and non-discrimination are legally binding obligations and do not need instrumental justifications. That said there is a growing body of evidence that human rights-based approaches, and these key guarantees in particular, can lead to more sustainable and inclusive development results.[i]
Discrimination can both cause poverty and be a hurdle in alleviating poverty. Even in countries where there have been significant gains toward achieving the MDGs, inequalities have grown. The MDGs have supported aggregate progress—often without acknowledging the importance of investing in the most marginalized and excluded, or giving due credit to governments and institutions which do ensure that development benefits these populations. Recognition of this shortcoming in the MDGs has brought an increasing awareness of the importance of working to reverse growing economic inequalities through the post-2015 framework, and a key element of this must be actively working to dismantle discrimination.[ii]

"A sleek dog, a meek dog, cringing for my meat,"
"I’m a bad dog, a mad dog, teasing silly sheep;"
"Not for me the other dogs, running at my side,"
"I’ll never be a lap dog, licking dirty feet,"
Answer:
'A sleek dog, a meek dog, cringing for my meat.'
and
'I’ll never be a lap dog, licking dirty feet.'
Explanation:
The 'Lone Dog' authored by Irene Rutherford McLeod conveys the idea of disdain for dogs that are pets. The lines 'A sleek dog...meat' and 'I'll ...feet' convey this idea constructively as the descriptive words like 'sleek,' 'meek,' 'cringing for meat' are used to shown this derision and the speaker's words asserting that he would never wish to be a 'lap dog and licking someone's dirty feet' further substantiates this claim of contempt.
Answer:
A. A sleek dog, a meek dog, cringing for my meat,"

On pages 103-105, we learn that after getting beat up, Wes storms into the house, gets a gun, chases Ray down the street and eventually shoots him. What are the direct and indirect reasons Wes made these decisions? What are alternate decisions he could have made in that situation?
Answer:
Wes made this decision because he wanted to send a message to the people who underestimate him, showing that they shouldn't mess with him if they don't want to suffer. He also does it as a revenge for the step that Ray gave him.
Explanation:
Ray hit Wes and it left him looking weak and helpless in society. He couldn't allow that kind of reputation to follow him, besides, he knew he had to get back at Ray for giving him a beating. For this reason, he decided to shoot Ray, who besides promoting strong revenge showed to society that he should be feared and respected and not underestimated.

1 Engineers attributed the bridge collapse to structural flaws.
2. Carla was attributed by a reporter when she agreed to do an interview.
3. Too much snacking can attribute to rising rates of obesity.
4. Miguel attributes his fear of heights to recurring dreams about falling.
I think its 1 and 4
Answer: Sentence 1 and 4
Explanation:
Sentence 1 and 4 are the correct answers because they are using the adjective ''attributable'' correctly since the meaning of it is explaining a cause of something.
In the first sentence, we have an explanation of why there are structural flaws and it is because of the bridge collapse. So engineers attributed the bridge collapse to those flaws who are bad.
In the fourth sentence, Miguel is explaining that his fear of heights is caused by his dreams where he was falling. He attributes that fear to his dreams.

What understanding an intelligent person has when that person realizes how little riches matter.

Knowing what humanity is like, I understand that riches can easily disappear.
C
Answer:
The statement that most accurately paraphrases the lines is:
A. What intelligent person does not know that riches disappear in the end?
Explanation:
When we paraphrase, we reword the ideas expressed by someone. We do not change the ideas, nor do we summarize. We say the exact same thing, but with different words. Let's take a look at what is being said here:
What knowing man knows not the ghostly,
Waste-like end of worldly wealth
The lines above are questioning something. They are asking, maybe in rhetorical way, what intelligent man does not know about how material wealth disappears in the end. The adjective "knowing" is the same as "knowledgeable" or "intelligent". And "waste-like end" means the wealth does not really value much. It disappears ("ghostly", like everything else.
With that in mind, we can easily see that letter A is the one conveying all those ideas:
A. What intelligent person does not know that riches disappear in the end?
