Answer:
do u have the paragraphs from the story?
help please! which one is it????
Read the paragraph from “Rivers and Stories,” Part 1.
It’s also a fact of the twentieth century that as a mode of travel, for commerce and pleasure, rivers have been largely displaced by highways, railways, and air travel. A hundred and fifty years ago the epic stories of engineering had to do with canal building, connecting one river system or one sea with another: Panama and Suez. The locks of the Erie Canal and the extensive lock system of English rivers belong now to a quaint and minor tourism. The stories of the twentieth century have had to do with massive dams, with nationalism and economic development and the prestige of massive dams. Rivers now supply 20 percent of the world’s electrical power, most of it generated by large, ecologically destructive, often culturally destructive, dams. The still-to-be-completed Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze is only the latest in a series of Faustian bargains technological culture has struck with the rivers of the earth.
What is the author’s perspective in this paragraph?
1. Tourism is helping to revive the legends associated with rivers.
2. Rivers are still the best way to transport people and products from one place to another.
3. Technological advancements have strengthened the ways people view rivers.
4. Human activity has changed the purpose of rivers for the worse.
Answer: 4. Human activity has changed the purpose of rivers for the worse.

"Because you are a noble yam farmer!" Eshu finished. "And because I am a kind god who will be grateful if you don't tell the other gods and goddesses you found me. Which would get me in trouble." Based on his words, which answer best describes Eshu?
Answer:
The excerpt presented above reveals that Eshu is a fearful character and not as powerful as the other gods.
Explanation:
When we analyze Eshu's words, we can see that he is a weak god and that he is very afraid that the other gods will find him, for this reason, he tries to convince the farmer not to mention his location. This also shows us that Eshu did something bad with the other gods, which justifies his fear of getting in trouble if he were found.

Although analyzed in depth, the cause of Van Gogh’s death is still a mystery. Some say it was his fondness of absinthe, a mind-altering drink, while others insist it was his congenital mental insanity.

How do you put extra effort into your papers to make them "high quality?" What new strategies have you learned in this lesson that you can apply to your next paper?
Answer:
I would try to strictly follow the rubric and find synonyms to commonly used words.
Explanation:
If you repeat the same words in your essay it can get boring; try to replace some words with stronger synonyms. Rubrics will also tell you exactly what you need to do to get the best possible score and this is one of your biggest assets. If you can understand what the rubric is asking for then your set. I don't particularly know how you have been doing on your writing assignments but think back to what you accomplished in your writing time: did you have a different way of researching/ planning, did you use a rough draft and further better your writing using it as a model? I wish you good luck.
How do you put extra effort into your papers to make them "high quality?"
Putting extra effort into your work would include actions like using synonyms, avoiding too many contractions, and refraining from including your opinion in order to stay professional.
What new strategies have you learned in this lesson that you can apply to your next paper?
Start as soon as possible.Focus on the task at hand.Be careful with your word choice.Use short paragraphs.Edit several times.Brainlist Pls!

What is the
Meaning of Passage:
Meaning Declaration:
Similarities:
Differences:
Answer:
The Gospel of Matthew: Chapter 5
The Sermon on the Mount, one of the longest of Jesus's recorded discourses, explains the Kingdom of God to his apostles and disciples. Jesus begins with encouragement. Contrary to the way earthly kingdoms operate, where wealth and power bring privilege, God promises that in the Kingdom of God, the lowly, who exhibit qualities such as meekness and mercy, will be blessed.
Next, Jesus explains the role of his disciples as "the salt of the earth" and "the light of the world." By living righteous, kingdom-focused lives, Jesus's disciples will make the world a better place and point others to God.
Jesus affirms the "laws" of the Kingdom of God are not contrary to the Law given to Moses by God. Instead, Jesus's teachings show that even the best attempts to live in obedience to the Law fall short of God's expectations, and he presents his instructions as intensifying and fulfilling biblical Law. In the Kingdom of God the attitude of the heart matters as much as the action. Therefore, anger is just as sinful as murder, and lust is just as sinful as adultery.

teacher said what have I learnt from the earthquakes lesson what should I say I want a perfect answer
Answer:
This question is incomplete since you did not provide the material about earthquakes that you've been working with. Anyway, I will give you an explanation that will be useful for this lesson.
Explanation:
An earthquake is the sudden movement of the Earth, caused by the sudden release of energy accumulated over a long time. The Earth's crust is made up of a dozen plates approximately 70 km thick, each with different physical and chemical characteristics. These plates ("tectonics") are being accommodated in a process that takes millions of years and has been giving the shape that we know today to the surface of our planet, originating the continents and the geographical reliefs in a process that is far from being completed. Usually these movements are slow and imperceptible, but in some cases these plates collide with each other like gigantic icebergs on an ocean of magma present in the depths of the Earth, preventing their movement. Then one plate begins to move over or under the other causing slow changes in the topography. But if the displacement is difficult, a tension energy begins to accumulate that at some point will be released and one of the plates will move sharply against the other, breaking it and releasing a variable amount of energy that causes the Earthquake.
The areas in which the plates exert this force between them are called faults and are, of course, the points where seismic phenomena are most likely to originate. Only 10% of earthquakes occur far from the boundaries of these plates.
Subterranean activity caused by an erupting volcano can cause a similar phenomenon.
In general, the term earthquake is associated with seismic movements of considerable dimension, although its etymology strictly means "movement of the Earth".
HYPOCENTRUS (OR FOCUS)
It is the point in the depth of the Earth from which energy is released in an earthquake. When it occurs in the crust of it (up to 70 km deep) it is called superficial. If it occurs between 70 and 300 km it is called intermediate and if it is deeper: deep (remember that the center of the Earth is located about 6,370 km deep).
EPICENTER
It is the point on the Earth's surface directly above the hypocenter, of course where the intensity of the earthquake is greatest.

This house is as clean as a whistle.
A) Metaphor
B) connotation
C) simile
☁️Answer☁️:
The correct answer option is C.) Simile.
✧My Explanation✧:
A simile is a phrase that uses a comparison to describe. For example, “life” can be described as similar to “a box of chocolates.” So, you know you’ve spotted a simile when you see the words like or as in a comparison. In this case, the sentence uses the word "as" to describe how clean the house is and it is comparing the house to a whistle because of how clean it is. Therefore, the correct option is C.
