This question is about "Holes", by Louis Sachar
Answer and Explanation:
1. Despite the difficult times he has been facing, Stanley had a good family base that taught him to find lessons in bad luck and difficulty. This makes him stronger spiritually and mentally, knowing that everything that is going on is an apprehended one. He was unjustly condemned to a type of reformatorio, but he uses it to promote good and build a high confidence that he never knew he had, but that was necessary to support everything he was facing.
2. Stanley was always abused at school and did not have the courage to stand in his own favor, on the contrary he always felt diminished and wronged. When he really found himself caught up in a real injustice, he realized that just by taking a stand, finding his threats and fighting them he could survive. The difficulties challenged him in a physical way (due to the obligation to dig huge holes every day) and psychological (due to the constant threats he received from the director of the reformatorio) and overcoming them stimulated these two elements in his body.
3. He discovered that the abuse caused by the director and the obligation to dig holes was due to something the director was looking for. From that information he got together with the other boys and managed to shape his situation to his advantage, since the information gave him power.

To be budget-strapped means to be working to execute a project (either one-off or recurring) on a very tight budget (or less cash than is required).

How does referring to old technology in Selection 2 strengthen the argument in support of new technology?
Answer:
Explanation:
In any technological concept/presentation referring to old technology emphasizes the importance of new technology in many ways. One such way is demonstrating the inefficient that old technology has become. At the same time this supports the need for new technology and its ability to perform tasks that old technology could not accomplish in order to move humanity forward. All of this provides support for new technology. Referring to older technology can also help point out the design flaws and mistakes in order to target and fix these flaws with newer technology in new models.
The narrator's overall point of view presents the series of events as
А. a fortunate and memorable discovery
B. a startling and humorous adventure
С. an unusual and somewhat baffling experience
D. an alarming and moderately dangerous emergency
E. an unavoidable and ultimately futile project
Answer:
С. an unusual and somewhat baffling experience
Explanation:
The series of event is somehow unusual due to the fact that he never expected the man in question to be of modest height and awkward behavior.
The man's actions on questioning his use of old materials like brush, paints etc as well as his thought on why he should not be insulted because he is a lawyer was a baffling experience to the painter to say the least.
The narrator's general point of view shows that he is in an unusual and somewhat baffling experience.
We can arrive at this answer because:
The narrator is a professional painter and is used to doing a lot of portraits.However, the client he is working with is very peculiar.This customer complains about all the brushes, paints, and techniques that the painter uses.This situation was very unusual for the narrator because he had never been through this before.Furthermore, the narrator found the experience very disconcerting, as he was receiving meaningless criticism all the time.

For this Unit Assessment, you will write an informative essay comparing and contrasting two speeches covering the topic of the American Dream.
I NEED AN ESSAYYYYYY!!!!
Answer:
Explanation:
With no knowledge of the English language, my grandfather, Olav Kaldestad,
immigrated to The United States with a dream and in search for an opportunity to
achieve a successful job and provide an even better future for his family. Coming from a
poor childhood in a different country came with struggles. He overcame those hardships
and worked hard to provide for his family and sent all three of his children through
college and they have achieved their American Dream as well. As proved by my
grandfather, there is an American Dream. The American Dream is an idea that America
gives the opportunity for anyone to succeed, however success itself is defined by the
individual. The accessibility of this idea that was once the pinnacle of living in America is
being challenged, but should it be? The American Dream is still accessible because
those who strive for their own idea of happiness can achieve it and those who take
advantage of the wealth of opportunities available can reach their dream, but because it
has changed to be focused on money, for those who wealth alone is the dream, it may
not be accessible to all.

I kept walking, my heart thumping in my chest. I'd been expecting this since I started. I'd been expecting the DHS to figure out what I was doing. I took every precaution, but Severe-Haircut woman had told me that she'd be watching me. She'd told me I was a marked man. I realized that I'd been waiting to get picked up and taken back to jail. Why not? Why should Darryl be in jail and not me? What did I have going for me? I hadn't even had the guts to tell my parents—or his—what had really happened to us. (10 points)
Answer:

As he turned to go on, he spat speculatively. There was a sharp, explosive crackle that startled him. He spat again, and again, in the air, before it could fall to the snow, the spittle crackled. He knew that at fifty below spittle crackled on the snow, but this spittle had crackled in the air. Undoubtedly it was colder than fifty below—how much colder he did not know. But the temperature did not matter. He was bound for the old claim on the left fork of Henderson Creek, where the boys were already.

Answer:There are different types of equality such as political, social, legal, natural, and economic equality. There is a strong link between freedom and equality.
Explanation: I hope this is right
Answer:
What might it mean to say that equality isn’t a feeling? It seems to me that there are two possible ways of understanding this claim. The first is that equality is an objective, empirical judgment rather than a normative or psychological judgment.

Which evidence from the newsela article "health benefits of reading, writing, are not just for patients" supports the central idea that reading can help doctors to better treat their patients and that writing can help their patients heal? Select the best correct answer.
Answer:
The correct answers from the newsela article "health benefits of reading, writing, are not just for patients" that support the central idea that reading can help doctors to better treat their patients and that writing can help their patients heal are:
“'If you have an experience and you sit down and write about it, you can pour that emotion out,' Harper says. Getting rid of these thoughts and emotions helps to find meaning in the death or the survival of a patient — and then allows you to move on with your life, he says."
"Harper says doctors who read stories are more understanding and, therefore, more compassionate or caring, more willing to listen to their patients’ stories."
Explanation:

“'If you have an experience and you sit down and write about it, you can pour that emotion out,' Harper says. Getting rid of these thoughts and emotions helps to find meaning in the death or the survival of a patient — and then allows you to move on with your life, he says."
"For example, think of fairy tales that teach moral lessons. Or religious texts that wrestle with valleys of despair and mountains of hope, or poetry that cleanses the writer’s soul."
"Coke points to books such as Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes. In that book the author writes about growing up poor in 1930s and ’40s Ireland."
"Harper says doctors who read stories are more understanding and, therefore, more compassionate or caring, more willing to listen to their patients’ stories."
Seeing it from both points of view, the definite cure of disease relies on more than just medicine there is also the human element that makes the patient and the doctor more persistent and resilient to any event that might come in the process, besides this activities help both parties communicate and understand better each other to get to the goal.
