“Scary Tales” Turn & Talk Questions Lines 13–18: What words describe the style of this essay? Which words or phrases in these lines help establish the style? How does the author’s use of the word rug contribute to her style?

4. The use of the word "rug" shows how memories are influenced by curious and intriguing things, because it is this word that makes the author remember that particular moment.

Answer:
LOL i don't even know
Explanation:
Read the excerpt from E.O. Wilson's "The Environmental Ethic."
Species are disappearing at an accelerating rate through human action, primarily habitat destruction but also
pollution and the introduction of exotic species into residual natural environments. I have said that a fifth or
more of the species of plants and animals could vanish or be doomed to early extinction by the year 2020
unless better efforts are made to save them.... As the last forests are felled in forest strongholds like the
Philippines and Ecuador, the decline of species will accelerate even more. In the world as a whole, extinction
rates are already hundreds or thousands of times higher than before the coming of man. They cannot be
balanced by new evolution in any period of time that has meaning for the human race.
What message does the author convey in this excerpt?
Answer:
In recent years, the extinction rate for many animal species has significantly increased.
Explanation:
The options you were given are the following:
Humans need to take action to end further destruction of the natural environment. In the coming years, humans will put forth stronger efforts to save plants and animals. The extinction of plant and animal species is problematic in the Philippines and Ecuador. In recent years, the extinction rate for many animal species has significantly increased.The message that the author of the given passage conveys is that, in recent years, the extinction rate for many animal species has significantly increased.
The sentence that points to this is the first one: Species are disappearing at an accelerating rate through human action, primarily habitat destruction but also pollution and the introduction of exotic species into residual natural environments. This sentence is the topic sentence of the given paragraph - its most important sentence, the one that summarizes what the rest of the paragraph will be about. The rest of the paragraph explains how severe this problem is.

Why is it important for you to be politically active?
Answer:
It is improtant for you, as a citizen to be politically active in order to share your voice. It may seem like your vote and your voice don't stand out in the billions of poeple in the world, but if you start small, you make a big difference. Votes aren't just for the ruler of the country, they're for local leaders, too, much smaller elections that still hold just as much power. If you get a person into a position of power that you know will lead well, then they will have a bigger voice than yours, but they will be screaming the same thing.

Therefore, one who becomes a prince through the favour
of the people ought to keep them friendly, and this he can
easily do seeing they only ask not to be oppressed by him.
Nabis, Prince of the Spartans, sustained the attack of all
Greece, and of a victorious Roman army, and against
them he defended his country and his government; and
for the overcoming of this peril it was only necessary for
him to make himself secure against a few, but this would
not have been sufficient had the people been hostile.
