Answer:
To show a contrast
Explanation:
If we look at the statement closely, we will observe that people's idea of the feeding mode of Venus Fly Trap is different from the way the plant actually feeds.
People have the idea that the Venus Fly Trap eats larger animals (meat) whereas it only eats tiny insects. The transition 'despite' as used in the sentence shows a contrast between people's idea of the Venus Fly Trap and its actual feeding mode.

At your high school's annual career fair, you learn that many employers use
personality tests to determine whom they should hire. Write an
argumentative essay for your school newspaper in which you support a
claim about whether or not personality tests should be used as part of the
hiring process. Use the information from the texts in your essay.
Manage your time carefully so that you can
• read the passages;
• plan your response;
• write your response; and
• revise and edit your response.
Be sure to
• include a claim;
• address counterclaims;
• use evidence from multiple sources; and
• avoid overly relying on one source.
Your response should be in the form of a multiparagraph essay. Write your
response in the space provided.
Answer:
Personality tests can be biased due to the personal beliefs of the proctor of the test, because there is no exact science in the personality testing of individuals regardless if there are questions the proctor could filter out someone he finds unlikable or quiet, when put into perspective the interviewee could be great at his job regardless of his personal faults, sometimes personality testing only belongs in jobs that require charisma like in the job of those responsible for managing great PR skills (Public Relation), when a job does depend on such personality skills maybe just maybe the test should be admistered.

excerpt from “Solitude” by Henry David Thoreau
This is a delicious evening, when the whole body is one sense, and imbibes delight through every pore. I go and come with a strange liberty in Nature, a part of herself. As I walk along the stony shore of the pond in my shirt sleeves, though it is cool as well as cloudy and windy, and I see nothing special to attract me, all the elements are unusually congenial to me. The bullfrogs trump to usher in the night, and the note of the whippoorwill is borne on the rippling wind from over the water. Sympathy with the fluttering alder and poplar leaves almost takes away my breath; yet, like the lake, my serenity is rippled but not ruffled. These small waves raised by the evening wind are as remote from storm as the smooth reflecting surface. Though it is now dark, the wind still blows and roars in the wood, the waves still dash, and some creatures lull the rest with their notes. The repose is never complete. The wildest animals do not repose, but seek their prey now; the fox, and skunk, and rabbit, now roam the fields and woods without fear. They are Nature’s watchmen, —links which connect the days of animated life. . . .
Some of my pleasantest hours were during the long rain storms in the spring or fall, which confined me to the house for the afternoon as well as the forenoon, soothed by their ceaseless roar and pelting; when an early twilight ushered in a long evening in which many thoughts had time to take root and unfold themselves. . . . Men frequently say to me, “I should think you would feel lonesome down there, and want to be nearer to folks, rainy and snowy days and nights especially.” I am tempted to reply to such,—This whole earth which we inhabit is but a point in space. How far apart, think you, dwell the two most distant inhabitants of yonder star, the breadth of whose disk cannot be appreciated by our instruments? Why should I feel lonely? Is not our planet in the Milky Way? This which you put seems to me not to be the most important question. What sort of space is that which separates a man from his fellows and makes him solitary? I have found that no exertion of the legs can bring two minds much nearer to one another.

Explanation:
To complete this exercise, you have to find the nouns in the text. Nouns are words that name a person, a place or a thing. There are different kinds of nouns.
It is important to clarify that 'she' is not marked as a noun because it is a pronoun but it can also be considered as a noun. However, numbers ('fifteen' and 'ten' in the text) are marked as nouns in the text but they are also considered as determiners (before nouns).
Give three (3) facts that you have known about literature.Short answer
Answer:
1.It is through reading such great
literary and poetic works, that one
understands life. They help a person
to take a closer look at the different
facts of life. In many ways it can
change one's perspective towards life.
Therefore literature is rather important in
our lives.
2.The study of literature is
important because it, at its most basic,
improves reading skills. From this
involved reading of quality literature a
student then develops their writing skills,
as the two go hand in hand (the best
writers are avid readers, typically).
3.A literature review surveys books,
scholarly articles, and any other
sources relevant to a particular issue,
area of research, or theory, and by
so doing, provides a description,
summary, and critical evaluation of these
works in relation to the research problem
being investigated.

Answer:
When they arrived, Leonora Ran straight to her room with the doll to play. She, like every other spoiled child, played a fun game with all of her dolls where she was the one in charge. She played a game of house where she was the mother. Her newest doll, as it was the prettiest of her dolls, was the favorite child. After an hour of playing, Leonora heard a voice, she had no idea where it was coming from until the voice presented itself as the newest doll. "Lillith, My name is Lillith." Leonora was amazed at her talking doll and spoke with her for hours.
Her mom came up soon to call Leonora to dinner, she wanted to bring Lillith, but mother said no. So after dinner when Leonora went up to her room to talk with Lillith again, Lillith was on her bed, when Leonora had originally left her on her vanity. "That lady is mean. How could you call her your mother?"
Explanation:
Though I would love to continue this story, i'll let you continue from where I left you. The doll is evil, but she loves Leonora. I chose the name Lillith because the name Lillith means "Belonging to the night" And the doll would be most active at night. That's when Lillith creates mischeif. Leo's parents blame Lilliths mischeif on her, and well, i'll let you go from there.

Read the excerpt from The Building of Manhattan. It was a monumental task: to design the world's tallest building, create as much usable rental space as possible, plan so it could be built within 18 months, and still have a handsome building. In the end, architect William Lamb worked on fifteen designs before his plan "K" was finally chosen. Which words cannot be changed when paraphrasing this text? "monumental task" "handsome building" "fifteen designs" "usable rental space"
The correct answer is "fifteen designs"
Explanation:
In paraphrasing a text, most ideas are expressed using different words and terms from the ones in the original text. However, specific information, such as numerical details or proper names cannot be modified because this would change the original ideas, which is not appropriate. This implies in the text presented, most of the ideas can be modified except by details such as "William Lamb", "18 months" and "fifteen designs". According to this, the correct answer is "fifteen designs".

What relationship do the words feeble and tremendous have?
Answer:
The words Feeble and Tremendous both have opposite meanings. They are antonyms.
Explanation:
Feeble means weak or something/someone that has no strength. Tremendous means something that is enormous, huge, or great in size and quantity. These two meanings are opposite and can be used to draw a contrast between two things.
Feeble is a term most times used to qualify a person who is weak, infirm, or sick. When an opinion does not hold water, it can also be referred to as feeble. Tremendous is used to qualify something which is great in quantity or size.
Brainstorm the way you will lead into the body of your narrative - how will you create that smooth transition from the introduction to the narrative/story? Start writing down some ideas.
I'm currently writing a book and can give insight on my own experience.
If it includes characters, start with an introduction and tell briefly about them. Show their character traits when the story progresses into the middle of the story. Let the conflict build up to move onto the main part of the story.
If it's an essay, briefly explain your topic. Give short reasons why in one sentence. Then move onto the body paragraphs to explain one of your three reasons in each. If you have sources use them.
I hoped this helped you.
