What is a piece of evidence from "Barack Obamas Victory Speech" that conveys messages of hope?
Answer:
"...we are an American family, and we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people."
Answer:
Explanation: Barack Obama was first brought into office in 2009 and has held the position for the last six years. There have been forty-five presidents of the United States, but prior to him, they had all been white. A new comer to the post with many disliking him, this speech was pivotal, an opportunity to assert his authority and to assure the people of America that he was not just suitable for the job but also a visionary president. Obama managed this by using a variety of paralinguistic features, far more than used normally in speeches, throughout the presentation to keep his viewers interested and engaged. Over 1.8 million people in Central Park, New York watched his performance as it was broadcast across the globe.
The French and American Revolutions both centered on the idea of:
Freedom

How many stanzas does Frederick Douglass poem have
Answer:Explanation:
10
Answer:
It has only seven stanzas.
descriptive writing
persuasive writing
autobiographical writing
biographical writing
Answer:
The primary purpose of descriptive writing is to describe a person, place or thing in such a way that a picture is formed in the reader's mind. Capturing an event through descriptive writing involves paying close attention to the details by using all of your five senses.
Persuasive writing intends to convince readers to believe in an idea or opinion and to do an action. Many writings such as criticisms, reviews, reaction papers, editorials, proposals, advertisements, and brochures use different ways of persuasion to influence readers.
An autobiography is a non-fiction story of a person's life, written by the subject themselves from their own point of view. Certain autobiographical writing, such as Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, can endure for well over a century and become part of the literary canon.
Biographical writing is a specific form of writing and research that takes as its subject the lives of individuals. As such it concentrates on constructing personal histories, and places them within their social, political and historical context, in order to discover and explain the influences on an individual's life.

Answer:
D). According to Farming Today magazine, "Shane Stewart, an lowa farmer,
raises the animals (Holstein cows with the sweetest personalities in the
entire Midwest."
Explanation:
The last sentence is correctly punctuated as it employs the appropriate use of the comma(,), double quotation marks("..."), and full stop(.). The first option is inappropriate as it wrongly employs a full stop in the middle of the sentence and fails to close the quotation marks. While the second option is incorrect as it doesn't employ quotation marks to denote the quoted text and the third option is wrong due to incorrect use of the quotation marks. Thus, option D is the correct answer.

For all the years I knew my grandma, she could barely see. Grandma was legally blind, and yet she knew, by feel, the location of every dish in her kitchen and every work of literature on the bookcase in the living room. I remember especially the bird-like way she peered at things. I'd bring her a copy of my latest school picture, and she'd hold the photo an inch or two from her face, tilt her head to one side, and inspect it before saying, "Very pretty." I used to think she was just being polite, that she really couldn't see me in the picture. But then she'd add, "That pin you're wearing was your mother's." How did she see that little blur on my jacket? The things she could see never failed to amaze me. Watching television with Grandma, I never failed to learn something. Usually it was the complicated plot twist of one of her favorite soap operas—The Guiding Light or As the World Turns. We grandkids would curl up on the big couch while Grandma pulled up a footstool and planted herself right next to the TV, elbows on her knees, to watch the screen. At the commercial break, she'd explain who was marrying whom and who was in the hospital and who had recently come back from the dead. She seemed to have no trouble identifying the characters whom she could barely see. Whether or not she could bring them into sharp focus, they were as real to her as her giggling grandkids. For a treat, we'd sometimes pile into our grandparent's black car for a drive around town: my grandfather at the wheel, my long-legged older brother in the front seat, and Grandma sandwiched between me and my little brother in the back—but sitting so far forward she was practically in the front. I'd imagined all she could see was a blur of images rushing past, yet she could always tell when Grandpa had missed a turn or forgotten to turn on his headlights. Returning home, Grandma would wave at the boy who mowed their lawn and point out the new fruit on the plum tree in their yard. In later years, when I visited from college, Grand

Thesis statement for freedom of speech
Answer:
the freedom to dream, and the freedom to pursue a dream is vital if a person is to live a life that is complete and full in every dimension of that life.
Explanation:
Answer:
The Thesis Statement
This is not an exhaustive list of bad thesis statements, but here're five kinds of problems I've seen most often. Notice that the last two, 4 and 5, are not necessarily incorrect or illegitimate thesis statements, but, rather, inappropriate for the purposes of this course. They may be useful forms for papers on different topics in other courses.
A thesis takes a position on an issue. It is different from a topic sentence in that a thesis statement is not neutral. It announces, in addition to the topic, the argument you want to make or the point you want to prove. This is your own opinion that you intend to back up. This is your reason and motivation for writing.
Thesis 1: Stanley Fish's argument that free speech exists more as a political prize than as a legal reality ignores the fact that even as a political prize it still serves the social end of creating a general cultural atmosphere of tolerance that may ultimately promote free speech in our nation just as effectively as any binding law.
Thesis 2: Even though there may be considerable advantages to restricting hate speech, the possibility of chilling open dialogue on crucial racial issues is too great and too high a price to pay.

How did the Plessy v. Ferguson case (1896) uphold Jim Crow laws? What effect did this case have on the lives (transportation, education, social implications, etc) of southern blacks?
Answer:
By the courts deciding on a "separate but equal" decision, this case became the legal basis for racial segregation in the United States for the next 50 years. This was essentially slavery called by another name. The ramifications of this case are still felt to this day. African Americans were given poor healthcare,education and transportation,while their public facilities such as water fountains and libraries, were barely usable.

in what specific way does the setting influence the climax of the play
You may know that the climax is often referred to as the turning point for the protagonist. It is that point in the story that changes the protagonist’s future. When you wake up from being unconscious and realize that you are no longer in your own time, that’s the climax. Everything that happens is related to that moment. Sometimes readers have a difficult time identifying the climax of a story. When a plot is eventful, think of the one event that changes everything for the protagonist going forward.

What is the difference between school food and food you get at home one page essay
Answer:
There are a couple of main factors than go into the differences between school food and food you get at home! I'd say one of the first noticeable things is the quality of the food. At school they have to make a lot of lunches for a lot of kids every day so of course they don't have the resources nor time to create healthy and homemade lunches each day. Usually the lunches are frozen/packaged things that you heat up. Most likely the food is highly processesed and not the best for your body. The goal is to feed the children, not keep them healthy. At home it's different because there isn't a high demand for lunches all at once. You have ingredients and you can make something more substantial and healthier. One of the other differences between the two is that there are probably less choices at school. The meals will vary somewhat, but it isn't like going to a restaurant. You will most likely choose between a few meals and then choose a drink. At home you can choose to make something that you would like, and you might have more variety at home. School meals are more convienient because you don't have to bring/make a lunch and it is already made for you. If you make a lunch at home you will have a little bit more work on your hands. But it will definitely be healthier and better for you! Hope this helps <3
