How can scientists use fossils and other geological evidence to draw conclusions about Earth’s past?

Answer:

Fossils and other pieces of geological evidence can be used to draw conclusions about Earth's past by a process known as radiometric dating (which is a process that allows scientists to figure out how old a fossil is). They help in figuring out what the environment looked like at what time, what kind of animals and plants thrived during that era, and what geological landscapes there were back then as well. It helps them conclude quite a lot about major events in the Earth's past, such as Pompeii, a Roman city that was buried under the explosion of the volcano Mount Vesuvius, which told a lot about Roman culture.

Many of our local schools are facing tough budget cuts. As a result, music and art programs are disappearing. Now the school board is considering dropping all after-school programs. This would be a huge mistake. After-school programs keep kids active, and they help keep kids in school. Research shows that the graduation rate for schools with after-school programs is sixty-five percent higher than that of schools without them. My friends and I all participate in after-school programs, and we are working hard to keep them in place. Please sign the petition at http://www.afterschool.org to show your support for after-school programs!

Which piece of research would best support the author’s argument that the school board should keep after-school programs in place?

a university study about how after-school programs help kids
a student poll that asks kids if they want after-school programs
a blog quiz that asks kids what they like to do after school
a state study about how kids spend their time after school

What type of faulty reasoning is this and why. I am proud that I am such a humble person!

The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded to someone who works for peace and inspires and challenges others to do the same. More specifically, the Nobel Committee in Norway awards the prize to someone who “shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity [friendship] between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies [professional armies that stand even in times of peace] and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.” Using evidence from the speech, defend the decision to give Malala Yousafzai this important award.

You better answer dis. CORRECTLY. Thank you UvU

Select the paragraph that shows that Mason is excited after finding the baseball photo.
Who Were the Spiders?



The Cooper family was about to move because Dad had a new job in Colorado. He had been out of work for a year, and Natalie and Mason knew he had been unhappy, but now a new job was making things look better. As Dad said, “Every cloud has a silver lining.”



Dad was already in Colorado, but Mom stayed behind so that the twins Natalie and Mason could finish fifth grade at Oak School. Today, Natalie and Mason were helping to pack boxes, and they enjoyed looking at the old treasures, especially the photo albums.



Mason found many photos, and Natalie picked up one of a baseball team in which the men’s uniforms had CLEVELAND printed on them. Someone had written 1895 on the photo, and Natalie asked, “Why is this photo here? The year is more than one hundred years ago.”



Mason asked Mom, “Is there a famous baseball player in our family?”



“I don’t know of anyone in my family, but maybe there was someone in your dad’s family,” she said, “so remember to ask about the photo when you talk to your dad tonight.”





That night Dad called, and Mason was eager to talk to him. “Dad, we found a photo today of a baseball team that played in 1895. Did one of your relatives play on a team a long time ago?”



Dad said, “It’s familiar, but I don’t know the story. Some of the photos are my father’s, so why don’t you call him and see if he knows?”



Grandpa Ken recalled that a relative played for a Cleveland team, a cousin of his great-grandfather whose last name was Zimmer, so Grandpa suggested they look up early Cleveland teams.



Mason and Natalie headed for the computer and found a baseball encyclopedia, where they clicked on “Teams” and found links to “Active Franchises” and “Earlier Franchises.” Mason knew that a franchise is a name for a professional sports team. Under “Earlier Franchises” they found three teams: Cleveland Blue, 1879–1884; Cleveland Infants, 1890–1890; and Cleveland Spiders, 1887–1899.



Mason shouted, “We found the answer! Our 1895 photo must show the Cleveland Spiders.”



Natalie said, “You might be right, so let’s find out about them.”



They looked for Cleveland Spiders and found the headline, “Grand Opening. About Nine Thousand People See the First Game.” A new Cleveland ballpark had opened on May 2, 1891. Cy Young was the starting pitcher, and Zimmer was listed as one of the players. “That’s the cousin of our great-great-grandfather!” said Natalie.



Mom said, “That means he played on the same team as Cy Young, who was an exceptional pitcher who won more games than any other pitcher in history.”



Mason wanted to know more, so they searched a baseball almanac. Natalie saw a list of players, and Zimmer was a catcher in 1895, a year in which the team came in second. She also read that in 1899, the Spiders were baseball’s worst team.



Natalie checked the 1899 team, and there was Zimmer again. “Oh, well, you can’t win them all,” she said.



Mom then said, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.” They would have to find out more about the Cleveland Spiders tomorrow.




A Mason asked Mom, “Is there a famous baseball player in our family?”

B“I don’t know of anyone in my family, but maybe there was someone in your dad’s family,” she said, “so remember to ask about the photo when you talk to your dad tonight.”


C That night Dad called, and Mason was eager to talk to him. “Dad, we found a photo today of a baseball team that played in 1895. Did one of your relatives play on a team a long time ago?”

D Dad said, “It’s familiar, but I don’t know the story. Some of the photos are my father’s, so why don’t you call him and see if he knows?”

Read this excerpt from The People Could Fly.

"Now it was funny. I never saw my passengers after that first girl. Because I took them on the nights when the moon was not showin, it was cloudy. And I always met them in the open or in a house with no light. So I never saw them, couldn't recognize them, and couldn't describe them. But I would say to them, "What you'say?" And they would say the password. Sounded like "Menare." Seemed the word came from the Bible somewhere, but I don't know. And they would have to say that word before I took them across."

Which statement best describes the speaker’s viewpoint in this passage?

He is amused at the password that has been chosen.
He wants to help people, even if he does not know them.
He wishes that he did not have to take risks to help others.
He is terrified that he will get caught crossing the river.

Bound each to each by natural piety.
