Read this sentence. I was very angry. The writer revised this sentence to include hyperbole. Which revised sentence includes an example of hyperbole? A.)I was angry that I got chewed out. B.) I was so angry I shook like a leaf. C.) I was angry enough to explode. D.)I was as angry as a swatted hornet.
Answer:
C)
Explanation:
A hyperbole is an exaggeration. The first one isn't an exaggeration, so we can eliminate that answer. Answer B is a simile, which is a comparison between two words using "like" or "as." You see that the sentence has the word "like" in it, so it's not a hyperbole. The last answer has the word "as" in it, so it's another simile. Hence, answer C is the most exaggerated out of all of them (you physically can't explode from anger), and therefor a hyperbole.
Alexandra is a firm believer in the idea that a person has the ability to change over time. Do you have a characteristic that you’d like to change for the better? Think about what you know about the idea of change, and write a 100- to 150-word paragraph describing something you want to change about yourself. Use specific details in your paragraph to support your answer.
Answer:
WHAT I WANT TO CHANGE ABOUT MYSELF
I am a young man in my early twenties, I am a jovial person who relates well with people. However, there is a characteristic I want to change about myself which is my tendency to be quick-tempered.
I can go from 0-100 in under a second and the change from calmness to rage is always startling, even to myself. In this state, I am likely to cause damage that would be very costly. I remembered the last time I lost my temper, I used a baseball bat to smash the windscreen of someone's car. What happened that day was that the driver of the car hit the fender of my car in his drunken state and when I went up to him, he hurled abuses on me so I lost my cool, got a baseball bat, and completely destroyed his windscreen.
That action of mine was not without consequence as I was arrested and charged with violent conduct and assault, and ended up paying for the windscreen.
If I was more rational and level headed, all that could have been avoided. So, the character i want to change is my quick temper.

Explanation:
In 1910, just before Marie Curie collected her second Nobel Prize for radioactivity, young György Hevesy arrived in England to study radioactivity himself. His university’s lab director in Manchester, Ernest Rutherford, immediately assigned Hevesy the Herculean task of separating out radioactive atoms from nonradioactive atoms inside blocks of lead. Actually, it turned out to be not Herculean but impossible. Rutherford had assumed the radioactive atoms, known as radium-D, were a unique substance. In fact, radium-D was radioactive lead and therefore could not be separated chemically. Ignorant of this, Hevesy wasted two years tediously trying to tease lead and radium-D apart before giving up.
Hevesy—a bald, droopy-cheeked, mustached aristocrat from Hungary—also faced domestic frustrations. Hevesy was far from home and used to savory Hungarian food, not the English cooking at his boardinghouse. After noticing patterns in the meals served there, Hevesy grew suspicious that, like a high school cafeteria recycling Monday’s hamburgers into Thursday’s beef chili, his landlady’s “fresh” daily meat was anything but. When confronted, she denied this, so Hevesy decided to seek proof.
Miraculously, he’d achieved a breakthrough in the lab around that time. He still couldn’t separate radium-D, but he realized he could flip that to his advantage. He’d begun musing over the possibility of injecting minute quantities of dissolved lead into a living creature and then tracing the element’s path, since the creature would metabolize the radioactive and nonradioactive lead the same way, and the radium-D would emit beacons of radioactivity as it moved. If this worked, he could actually track molecules inside veins and organs, an unprecedented degree of resolution.
Before he tried this on a living being, Hevesy decided to test his idea on the tissue of a nonliving being, a test with an ulterior motive. He took too much meat at dinner one night and, when the landlady’s back was turned, sprinkled “hot” lead over it. She gathered his leftovers as normal, and the next day Hevesy brought home a newfangled radiation detector from his lab buddy, Hans Geiger. Sure enough, when he waved it over that night’s goulash, Geiger’s counter went furious: click-click-click-click. Hevesy confronted his landlady with the evidence. But, being a scientific romantic, Hevesy no doubt laid it on thick as he explained the mysteries of radioactivity. In fact, the landlady was so charmed to be caught so cleverly, with the latest tools of forensic science, she didn’t even get mad. There’s no historical record of whether she altered her menu, however.

Which is the recommended method for reading your math textbook most effectively? a. read, question, summarize, practice b. highlight, skim, ask, and review c. preview, read, summarize, and review
Answer:
a. read, question, summarize, practice
Explanation:
The best way to read your math textbook most efficiently is to read, question, summarize, and practice.
Math has to do with counting, calculation, solving problems, making use of formulas, etcetera. You don't read a Math textbook the same way you read an English textbook because they are very different.
So, the first step is to read the textbook, then ask some questions, which can be interpreted as solving problems, summarize what you have learned so far and then go ahead to practice what you have learned.
Read the passage from "Gid."
How would the passage most likely change if Girl's
mother were the narrator?
...is it true that you sing benna in Sunday School?
always eat your food in such a way that it doesn't turn
someone else's stomach; On Sundays, try to walk like
a lady ... don't sing benna in Sunday school, you
mustn't speak to warf-rat boys, not even to give
directions, don't eat fruits on the street-flies will follow
you but I don't sing benna on Sundays at all and never
in Sunday school.
O She would explain why she is so concerned about
Girl.
O She would tell readers why she respects Girl's
decisions
O She would ignore Girl's insistence that she doesn't
sing benna.
O She would share Girl's point of view on interacting
with boys
Answer:
She would explain why she is so concerned about Girl.
Explanation:
The passage would most likely change if Girl's mother was the narrator by explaining her concern for her daughter and why she would want her to be upright and be a good daughter.
From the passage given, it is narrated from the perspective of Girl where she talks about how her mother always tells her not to sing Benna in Sunday School, eat her food in such a way that it won't turn her stomach, walk like a lady and so on. We can infer that Girl is exasperated and tired of her mother's interference in her life and does not really understand her mother as she believes she is trying to control her life.
Narrating the story from her mother's point of view would enable her to explain why she is so concerned about her daughter, not as if she is controlling her.
Answer:
A- She would explain why she is so concerned about Girl.Explanation: Took the test hope I helped plz five stars. :)
PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!What is the significance of “The Black Ball”and literary works like it in the era after World War II?
"The Black Ball" is a collection of stories by Ralph Ellison. In this collection, Ellison describes the problems and tribulations that African American people experienced in the years after World War II. The collection discusses many important topics, including segregation, racism, the divisions that existed between Americans of different races, etc.
Literary works of this kind were extremely important in the period after World War II. After the war, African Americans began to fight for equality and representation in a more systematic way. Their contributions during the war years exemplified the importance of their role in society and the need for equality. These works became significant because they illustrated how unique African American experiences were. They became a catalyst for the Civil Rights Movement that would take place in the 1950s and 1960s.
Read act 1 of Hamlet and answer the following question.
How do the scene with the gravediggers and Hamlet's scene with Yorick's skull illustrate the broader theme of Hamlet's preoccupation with
death?
Answer: because a skull is associated with death
Explanation:
Hamlet was using the skull as an obvious phenomenon to not mislead the reader because of the abstract scenes taking place
Answer:
PLATO ANSWER
Explanation:
The scene with the gravediggers illustrates the play’s broader theme of mortality. In the first part of the scene, two gravediggers discuss the burial of people who have taken their own lives and how the Christian system is flawed in disallowing su-icide. Hamlet and Horatio then look at the remains of the many dead bodies and reflect on the certainty of death for all people. In death, we are all the same. For example, a woman may go to great ends to beautify herself in life, but her remains after death may look like any ordinary person’s remains. Hamlet and Horatio also discuss how a person's greatness ceases to matter when he or she dies. Hamlet refers to Alexander the Great being buried and becoming one with the sand.
Yorick’s skull acts as a symbol of death. With the skull in his hand, Hamlet reminisces about the time he spent with Yorick. Now, in death, Yorick is nothing more than a pile of bones, with no wit, humor, or intelligence. Earlier in the play, Hamlet spent much time mulling over death and wondering what came after death. Yorick’s skull answers that question for Hamlet.
The skull and the graveyard directly contrast with the life Hamlet led in the castle. In Elsinore, Hamlet’s mother and Claudius tried to make him forget about his father's death. In the graveyard, he has the freedom to contemplate death.
what type of clause is this statement “whoever wins the race "
Answer:
Explanation:
There are three types of subordinate, or independent, clauses: adjective, adverb, and noun. Remember that a subordinate clause has a subject and a verb, but it does not express a complete thought. In other words, it cannot stand alone-it is dependent.
The noun clause is a clause that functions like a noun in the sentence. Remember that a noun names a person, place, thing, or idea. Nouns can function as subjects, direct objects, indirect objects, object of the preposition, and predicate nominatives.
Answer:
Unlike the response of Ahamit68 which is convoluted, incoherent, and partially incorrect, the simple, correct answer is...
It is a dependent clause.
Explanation:
Why so? Although it contains a subject and a verb, it does not express a complete thought, so it is not a sentence and can't stand alone.

"Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" is a poem by author William Carlos William. The poem describes the painting by Pieter Brueghel of the famous mythological story. The painting depicts the character, Icarus, falling from the sky into the blue water of the ocean after the wax wings he had used to fly with were melted by the sun. However, as both the poem and the painting make sure to highlight, no one notices Icarus's fate. The world simply goes on without any consideration for the suffering of poor Icarus. The ship that was sailing by keeps on sailing; that farmer that was ploughing keeps on ploughing. If the event does not affect them directly, people give it no importance.

Please summarize the following...
On July 13th, a federal judge permanently blocked Georgia’s recent heartbeat law from going into effect. The law would have prohibited abortion, barring certain specific exceptions, after a heartbeat is detectable in the pre-born child, usually at around 6 weeks after conception. Unfortunately, a recent federal ruling declares that Georgia’s heartbeat law violates the 14th amendment and is unconstitutional. I was with Governor Brian Kemp at the signing of the bill. Here’s what the cultural conversation about heartbeat bills gets wrong.
Georgia’s law faced an uphill cultural battle from the moment it was first proposed. Pro-abortion advocates and activists argue that heartbeat bills like Georgia’s are unnecessarily “restrictive” on women seeking an abortion. They argue that most women don’t know that they are pregnant until well after a heartbeat is detectable in the pre-born. As a result, they say that heartbeat bills effectively work just like abortion bans, preventing women from getting any abortions at all.
But we need to be very clear about one thing here. Heartbeat laws aren’t primarily about “restricting” women; they are first and foremost about putting the inherent human dignity of the unborn into law. That means heartbeat laws are about recognizing and protecting the rights of the unborn. Every human being possesses the right to life, whether born or unborn. We have a moral imperative to protect, cherish, and nurture human life at every stage. Heartbeat laws take that moral imperative and put it into law.
That’s exactly what we all want our laws to do. We all want law to express and defend the moral truths of human equality, dignity, value. It’s disappointing to me how often and how quickly laws crafted to protect the value of unborn life are rephrased and debated as laws about restricting or attacking women. If anything, it would be much more honest to say that the decision to block Georgia’s heartbeat law is an attack on the pre-born because it prevents legal protections from going into effect that would ensure America is a country where the truths of human equality and dignity apply not just to children and adults, but to the pre-born too.
Neither are heartbeat laws just a partisan play by Republicans or a prerogative of white evangelicals. Being pro-life simply shouldn’t be a partisan issue. When I was working on getting Georgia’s law passed, I heard from and worked alongside both Republicans and Democrats. It’s an unfortunate fact that the official party platform for the Democrat party no longer has a place for pro-life Democrats, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. According to the last national Gallup Poll on abortion (2019), nearly 30% of Democratic voters, and 44% of Independent voters identify as pro-life. And we all too often forget that the pro-life movement is incredibly diverse and is filled with Black voices. I am one of them.
But are heartbeat laws really unconstitutional, as Judge Steven Jones ruled in Georgia’s case? Pro-abortion advocates act like the constitutional case against heartbeat bills is cut and dry, but it really isn’t. The Roe v. Wade decision is anything but clear and compelling in its argument pinning legal personhood, with all its attendant rights and protections, on fetal viability in the third trimester. What heartbeat bills recognize is the established medical fact that only about 4% of pregnancies end in miscarriage after a heartbeat is detected. It is completely reasonable to consider a fetal heartbeat as a sign that a healthy, viable new life is coming to be in a mother’s womb. The Constitution exists precisely to codify and protect the rights of such human life, and heartbeat laws simply extend those protections to the unborn who are living inside the womb.
For now, the federal court has made its ruling. But Governor Kemp has stated he intends to file for an appeal, and we will likely hear more debate about Georgia’s heartbeat bill in the months to come. When we do, I hope we’ll get the debate right this time by putting the focus on human dignity and the rights of unborn, rather than partisan political issues and disingenuous narratives.
Rev. Dean Nelson is the executive director of Human Coalition Action.
Answer:
On July 13th, a federal judge permanently prohibited the heartbeat law in the state of Georgia from taking effect. The heartbeat law would have stopped abortion, except for some exceptions, after a heartbeat is detected in a fetus.
The federal ruling said the heartbeat law was unconstitutional and violated the Fourteenth Amendment.
The heartbeat law has always faced controversy and criticism from pro-abortion advocates who argued that the heartbeat bill was restrictive on women who wanted an abortion and that many women were unaware they were pregnant until the heartbeat could be detected.
This heartbeat law is not about the restriction on women who want an abortion but protecting the rights to life of the unborn child.
We want our laws to be able to defend and uphold morality, and equality and it is saddening that when laws like these are put in place, it is said to be restrictive on women. If anything, the prohibition of the heartbeat law is an attack on unborn children who have their rights taken away.
This law has nothing to do with partisan politics as I am pro-life and worked with Republicans and Democrats when drafting this law.
According to Judge Steven Jones, is the heartbeat law truly unconstitutional? It is completely reasonable to consider the heartbeat of a fetus as a sign of life and the Constitution exists to protect such a life.
So far, the federal court has made a ruling but Governor Kemp has made it clear he would file for an appeal and I hope that when it matters most, more thought would be put for the dignity and rights of the unborn rather than partisan narratives.

Juvante feels strongly that socialized health care is the most-effective, most-realistic option for modernized countries, but is required to read several articles about the negative financial and practical implications of socialized medicine for his assignment. Why does his instructor insist that he do that? a. so that he will have more exposure to different viewpoints b. so that he can learn how to form arguments c. so he can learn to identify reputable sources
Answer:
I think the answer is A.so that he will have more exposure to different view points
Juvante's instructor insists that he read texts with negative arguments about socialized health so that he has access to different points of view, as shown in option A.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Juvante has a very positive opinion of socialized health.This makes him tend to only read articles and texts that present positive opinions.However, this does not strengthen his knowledge of the subject and prevents him from having a wider range of information.Thus, his instructor influenced him to read articles and texts with negative opinions on the subject, as this would allow Juvante to have access to different opinions and how they are formed, which would enhance his knowledge.
