Answer 1

Answer:

I'd say the answer is choice C.

Given the provided information I'm assuming the narrator find Mangan's sister as a goal or an idol of sorts who they see hope wisdom and in this case, light. Light can be used as Mangan's sister's symbolism of great, or ideal.

When the narrator see's the sister he/she/they is reminded of light and goodness.

Trey’s decision to leave Jorge to seek help contributes to developing the theme of - Shared challenges can make friendship stronger. Always be prepared for emergencies. Helping others can motivate people to overcome challenges. Hope and determination are more powerful than any technology.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is: Always be prepared for emergencies

Explanation:

This option makes the most sense because all the other options are amicable and Trey leaving Jorge to get help is certainly not amicable and seems to constitute an emergency since he is seeking help.

Answers

Answer:

The story made me think of the future of Earth and mankind.

At this point in our timeline, we are already being forced to rely more and more on processed everything. Processed water, sold in bottles an gallons, processed food, even humans are now processed from one gender to another.

Genetically modified food is now cheaper than organic food.

The governments of the world are gradually making moves to organise themselves into a One World Unit.

How much longer before Food and even Air becomes monopolised?

Already the tracker that was referred to in the story is existent and already in use.

It's just a matter of time before the United Nations creates a body that will be responsible for "ending hunger" in the third world nations and then finally around the globe.

It will not be difficult to find an excuse. They'd probably say agriculture and food production will be monopolised to regulate the use of earth to the end that it is further preserved from degradation.

About the extinction bees, only a nuclear conflict can make them extinct. That too is not really an impossibility.

Cruising into a Driverless Future
By Chloe Reichel

Eerie as it may seem to drive alongside a car with no one behind the wheel, autonomous vehicles are poised to hit the roads in the next few years. A lawsuit between Uber and Waymo, Google’s self-driving car project, settled in February 2018 illustrates the fierce battle to develop driverless car technology. Many cars already employ semi-autonomous technology, such as parking assistance and lane monitoring. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) suggests that automated vehicles could promote safety on the road. According to NHTSA’s Federal Automated Vehicles Policy, 94 percent of car accidents are linked to human choice or error. Automated vehicles, the NHTSA writes, could reduce the frequency of crashes by eliminating some human error on the roads. The policy indicates positive features of automated vehicles beyond safety, including potential environmental benefits and increased mobility for those otherwise unable to drive. The cutting-edge technology, however, presents ethical questions and other concerns. Some research included in this roundup indicates that the environmental effects of widespread adoption of autonomous vehicles might not be positive. Safety benefits are not so clear-cut either.

According to NHTSA’s Federal Automated Vehicles Policy, 94 percent of car accidents are linked to human choice or error.”

The author includes this line to—
A. provide and alternate provide an alternate argument to why automated vehicles are not a good idea.
B) show how safety benefits are not clear yet.
C) support the idea that automated vehicles could reduce the reduce the high number of accidents linked to human choice and error.
D) argue the fact that people need to become better drives

According to The Diary of Anne Frank, why did the Frank family move from Germany to Holland when Anne was a small child?

Otto Frank had more business opportunities in Holland than in Germany.
Hitler came to power in Germany, and the Franks were Jewish.
The family knew of a safe hiding place in an attic in Holland.
The Nazis forced them to leave their home in Germany.

Answers

Answer:

Hitler came to power in Germany, and the Franks were Jewish.

Explanation:

Otto Frank had more business opportunities in Holland than in Germany. - this is not the correct answer. Anne did not write in her diary about her father’s business opportunities in this context.

Hitler came to power in Germany, and the Franks were Jewish. - this is the right answer. Franks, as a Jewish family, moved to Holland in 1933. when Nazis rose to power and Hitler became chancellor. Life for Jewish people became difficult in Germany, and it was evident Nazis are going to enforce more anti-semitic laws shortly. Many Jewish families flew from Germany at the time, and with them, Franks moved as well. While part of the family went as afar as the USA, Anne’s close relatives moved to Holland. They had no idea the war will break out and that Holland is going to be invaded and occupied seven years later.

The family knew of a safe hiding place in an attic in Holland. - this is not true. Franks did not immediately hide in the attic, only when Germany invaded Holland.

The Nazis forced them to leave their home in Germany. - this is not the correct answer. Franks moved in 1933. when the Nazis only came to power. They did make Jewish lives difficult, but at that time they did not yet force Jewish people to move.
