Answer:
Some policymakers are proposing to raise the minimum wage, but that policy would be harmful. Research shows businesses would respond to the increased costs by reducing employment, particularly for low-skilled workers. Some businesses may pass the higher costs on to consumers.In addition to hurting many low-income workers, economists widely believe that minimum wage increases are not an effective way to reduce poverty. That's because most minimum wage workers do not live in households that are in poverty.

Which theme is conveyed in this excerpt from "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe?
TRUE!—nervous—very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why will you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses—not destroyed—not dulled them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all things in the heaven and in the earth. I heard many things in hell. How, then, am I mad? Hearken! and observe how healthily—how calmly I can tell you the whole story.
It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion there was none. I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! He had the eye of a vulture—a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold; and so by degrees—very gradually—I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever.

When the first people settled in Mesopotamia (Sumerians), they were hunters and gatherers. One way they adapted to their environment was by becoming _________ and ____________. (select 2)
a loggers
b fishermen
c shoe makers
d farmers
Answer:
Farmers and Fishermen
Explanation:
Sumer was the first civilization in recorded history. It developed in the southern banks of the Tigris and the Euphrates, in what is now Iraq.
Sumerians were at first hunter-gatherers, like all humans at the time. However, once they started to raise domestic crops and animals, they became sedentary because they needed to tend the crops and the animals, and also because farming and animal husbandry produced a higher and steadier supply of food than hunting and gathering.
Thus, two of the first occupations in Sumer were farmers, who cultivated and harvested the crops, and fishermen, who supplemented the food supply with fish from the nearby rivers.
edwards argues that the sun, earth, air, and animals are not here for our enjoyment. What, according to edwards, is the purpose of these natural elements? Write the line of text that shows this
The sun, earth, air, and animals, according to Edward, are not here for our enjoyment; they are here because they are elements we need to survive and "were formed for men to serve God."
The motivational argument is based on Edwards' association of willing or choosing with one's strongest inclination or preference. Because selecting just is a dominant propensity, it is logically impossible to choose when there is no dominant incentive. Jonathan Edwards argues to the congregation's sinning members who have not yet accepted Christ that God's consequences for their crimes and lack of faith are ineludible to any mortal.

Adjectives are words we use to modify (describe) nouns. Adverbs are words we use to modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. From both of these parts of speech, we can create forms called comparative and superlative.
The comparative is a form used to compare two entities (or groups of entities), and the superlative is a form used to compare three or more entities and express that something has a quality or performs an action to the greatest or least degree.

simile?
Rise and Shine!
by Ike Batiste
the sun and a toddler
a toddler and a game
All want is to sleep a bit longer
But the sun pokes its bright head above my sill,
Like an eager toddler who can't wait to play
"Peek-a-bool I see you!
Not yet! Not yet! I'm having the nicest dream!
But sleep, that thief, sees the sun coming
And silently slips out the back door,
Stealing my sweet dream away.
What was I dreaming? It's coming back to me!
But scraps of dream memories drift just out of reach
Like foll leaves dancing in the wind
That I chose madly but cannot catch
a toddler and the person sleeping
the sun and a dream
The correct answer is The sun and a toddler
Explanation:
In the first stanza of this poem, there is a simile in the section "But the sun pokes its bright head...Like an eager toddler who can't wait to play" because in similes two elements are compared by using words such as "like" or "as". Moreover, this simile focuses on comparing the sun and the toddler because the author expresses similar to a toddler who is anxious to play the sun keeps shining at him even he wants to sleep more. According to this, the two elements in this simile is the sun and a toddler.

How he teeters, skitters, tingles, teases,
Taunts them, hovers like an ecstatic bird,
He's only flirting, crowd him, crowd him,
Delicate, delicate, delicate, delicate-now!
ORWhat did we say to each other
that now we are as the deer
who walk in single file
with heads high
with ears forward
with eyes watchful
with hooves always placed on firm ground
in whose limbs there is latent flight
Write a thesis statement in response to the following prompt.
Prompt: Read the letter to the editor "I, Too, Have a Dream." How does the writer use structure and language to persuade her readers and support her feelings about immigration?
Dear Editor,
I have never taken the time to write a letter to the editor, but something happened that lit a fire in me. Last week, as my best friend Areliss and I headed to class, a group of college protesters blocked our path. Their signs read "GO HOME" and "ILLEGALS LEAVE." They shouted, "Send them home!" These protesters couldn't have known what Areliss felt as they shouted and waved pamphlets in our faces like tattered flags. But, I know their words were bullets to Areliss's heart. I wanted to fire back to the protestors: Where are your ancestors from?
Areliss came to the United States illegally, but she didn't do it intentionally. She was a baby. Her parents, seeking a better life, failed to follow the established immigration procedure, and they slipped into our country undetected. Once here, they raised Areliss, who would grow up never knowing any other home but America.
Under DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), Areliss has been granted the temporary opportunity to remain here while she completes her college education. DACA ensures, at least for a while, that she will not be deported to a country she has never visited in her entire life.
The term "DREAMers" refers to an act that would have protected these immigrant children if they attended college or served in the military. The DREAM Act did not pass, but its name has remained. DACA recipients have a dream: they dream that their lifelong contribution to the United States will one day be recognized, and they will be permitted to stay in the country they have always called home.
Now, DACA is ending. Those who oppose DACA say it encourages illegal activity, weakens our borders, and goes against the Constitution. I understand their concerns. In an era of heightened security, we must do our utmost to keep this great nation safe. That includes establishing a healthy monitoring system for immigration.
But, those who oppose DACA, who wield protest signs and who want to build walls, have never felt the dreaded doom of deportation. They forget that our long and colorful history has been built by many immigrants—including the immigrants who fought for and founded our country. They forget that Lady Liberty stands as a beacon, asking for the tired, the poor, and the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. We have a responsibility to them.
To send DREAMers away is to deny that responsibility. Programs like DACA exist to keep the American dream alive.
Yes, Areliss is a DREAMer. But I, too, have a dream. My dream is that DACA will be reinstated. My dream is that Areliss will be invited to stay in the country she has known as home since she was a baby and live out her dreams in the country she loves.
Sincerely,
Brittany Taylor
Answer:
In Brittany Taylor's letter to the editor, “I, Too, Have a Dream”, she uses some figurative language. She used Metaphors and Personification. She makes her ideas by including a problem and solution to persuade her audience to support reinstating DACA. Brittany Taylor's letter also says that she used real life experience and federal documents such as the DACA to support the fact that deportation is cruel.
Explanation:
I don't know if it's right but here is the answer I put in my test. :)
I guarantee you you'll get an easy A from this. A thesis statement should have only one sentence. Not multiple like the person above me. A better thesis statement would be:
Answer: "In Brittany Taylor's letter “I, Too, Have a Dream”, she uses metaphors, personification and problem/solution structure to show her support regarding DACA."
Reminder- don't forget to use your own words. Don't just copy word for word from my sentence.

Contrast two hangings and their parallels to the taste of the soup
Night Section Chapter 4
Need help plsssss
Answer:
The contrast between two hangings and their parallel to the taste of the soup is that after first hanging, the soup tasted excellent because Ellie and his camp mates were still alive.
After second hanging, the soup tasted like a 'corpse' because one of a young kid from their camp was hanged.
Explanation:
'Night' is a memoir of Elie Wiesel during the times he spent in concentration camp along with his father.
In section 4, when Ellie witnesses two hangings, he parallels these hangings with the taste of the soup. After first hanging, Ellie aaserts that the soupd tastes 'better than ever' because no one was hanged from his camp and Ellie was also safe. The soup was regular one- watered soup, but that day it tasted better because they were able to survive another day in the camp and were safe.
But, after the second hanging, Ellie asserts that the soup tasted like a corpse, because a young boy who was beloved in the camp along with two other were hanged. Ellie was unable to get the picture out of his head and states that the soup tasted like a corpse that day.
The difference between the two hangings and the flavor of the soup is that the soup tasted great after the first hanging since Ellie and his campmates were still alive.
Taste of the soup:The soup tasted like a 'corpse' after the second hanging because one of their camp's small kids was hanged. 'Night' is a book written by Elie Wiesel about his stay in a concentration camp with his father. When Ellie watches two hangings in section 4, he compares the flavor of the soup to the hangings.
Ellie claims that the soup tastes 'better than ever' after the first hanging because no one from his group was hanged, and Ellie was also safe.
The soup was ordinary one-watered soup, but it tasted better that day since they had survived another day in the prison.

Read this excerpt from "Atalanta, the Fleet-Footed Huntress."
Hippomenes heard her footsteps thundering just a few paces behind him. He took the third apple and threw it over to one side of the path where the ground sloped toward the river. Atalanta’s quick eye saw that it was far more beautiful than either of the others. If it were not picked up at once, it would roll down into the deep water and be lost, and that would never do. She turned aside from her course and ran after it. It was easy enough to retrieve the apple, but while she was doing so, Hippomenes gained upon her again. He was almost to the riverbank. How she strained every muscle now to overtake him!
But after all, she felt that she did not care very much. He was the finest young man that she had ever seen, he had given her three golden apples, and he had risked his life to win her. It would be a great pity if he should have to die.

Augustus asks if Isaac feels better, and he says, “No.” If pain demands to be felt, why didn’t Isaac’s destruction of the trophies make him feel better?
Answer:
Because, though, pain demands to be felt it can not be avoided.
Explanation:
'The Fault in Our Stars' is a novel written by John Green. The novel revolves around the life of a sixteen-year-old Hazel Grace and seventeen-year-old Augustus Gus. They both are suffering from terminal illness- cancer and tumor and fell in love with each other.
In Chapter 4, when Isaac was left by his girl friend, Monica, he feels imense pain. In most part of the novel, characters deal with pain and loss, and tries to figure out how to express them. The phrase 'pain demands to be felt' is taken from the book Hazel and Augustus were reading- An Imperial Affliction.
The destruction of trophies did not make Isaac feel better, because breaking trophies was a way of expressing that he was feeling painful and hurt. Though pain demands to be felt, it can not be avoided.
