Explanation: I just did it
Read an excerpt from "Television and the Public Interest" and answer the question. The speech was delivered by Newton N. Minow, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, to the nation’s television executives in 1961.
[1] … But when television is bad, nothing is worse. I invite each of you to sit down in front of your television set when your station goes on the air and stay there, for a day, without a book, without a magazine, without a newspaper, without a profit and loss sheet or a rating book to distract you. Keep your eyes glued to that set until the station signs off. I can assure you that what you will observe is a vast wasteland.
[2] You will see a procession of game shows, formula comedies about totally unbelievable families, blood and thunder, mayhem, violence, sadism, murder, western bad men, western good men, private eyes, gangsters, more violence, and cartoons. And endlessly, commercials—many screaming, cajoling, and offending. And most of all, boredom. True, you'll see a few things you will enjoy. But they will be very, very few. And if you think I exaggerate, I only ask you to try it.
[3] Is there one person in this room who claims that broadcasting can't do better? Well a glance at next season's proposed programming can give us little heart. Of 73 and 1/2 hours of prime evening time, the networks have tentatively scheduled 59 hours of categories of action-adventure, situation comedy, variety, quiz, and movies. Is there one network president in this room who claims he can't do better?
[4] The best estimates indicate that during the hours of 5 to 6 P.M. sixty percent of your audience is composed of children under twelve. And most young children today, believe it or not, spend as much time watching television as they do in the schoolroom. I repeat—let that sink in, ladies and gentlemen—most young children today spend as much time watching television as they do in the schoolroom. It used to be said that there were three great influences on a child: home, school, and church. Today, there is a fourth great influence, and you ladies and gentlemen in this room control it.
[5] If parents, teachers, and ministers conducted their responsibilities by following the ratings, children would have a steady diet of ice cream, school holidays, and no Sunday school. What about your responsibilities? Is there no room on television to teach, to inform, to uplift, to stretch, to enlarge the capacities of our children? Is there no room for programs deepening their understanding of children in other lands? There are some fine children's shows, but they are drowned out in the massive doses of cartoons, violence, and more violence. Must these be your trademarks? Search your consciences and see if you cannot offer more to your young beneficiaries whose future you guide so many hours each and every day …
[6] You must provide a wider range of choices, more diversity, more alternatives. It is not enough to cater to the nation's whims; you must also serve the nation's needs. And I would add this: that if some of you persist in a relentless search for the highest rating and the lowest common denominator, you may very well lose your audience. Because … the people are wise, wiser than some of the broadcasters—and politicians—think.
What type of evidence does Minow use to develop the idea that there is little hope that programming will change?
By describing an example of what happened when he watched television for a day straight
By giving expert testimony that explains how damaging television is to the human mind
By including statistics on the number of planned hours of programming designed to entertain
By providing facts about how much television people and especially children watch
Answer: By including statistics on the number of planned hours of programming designed to entertain
Explanation:
The type of evidence that Minow used to develop the idea that there is little hope that programming will change is by including statistics on the number of planned hours of programming designed to entertain.
This was illustrated when he said that the best estimates indicate that during the hours of 5 to 6 P.M. sixty percent of the audience is composed of children under twelve. Minow explained how altering done programs will be beneficial.

Why is it important for us to understand the difference between teenage brains and fully developed adult brains?
Answer:
To understand the difference between a teenager's brain and a fully developed adult brain,you would need to ask from both sides.As a teen,the mind and body is going through several changes,mentally,emotionally,and physically.But to a full grown adult,the brain is already fully developed and understands what to do,how to do it,etc.The difference is the hormonal changes that are caused by the brain affects teens during puberty and thus making it a hard time for teens to feel,because their feelings are growing stronger and some bottle their emotions up.So it is important to learn about the teen and adult mind because either way we learn new things teen and adults

Answer:
Jason and Sara are friends. They work at the same computer company 2. Jason loves his job. 3. Sara feels stressed at work. 4. They share an office. 5. They work hard. 6. Jason eats three healthy meals every day. 7. He drinks a lot of water. 8. Sara skips breakfast. 9. She orders take-out food from nearby restaurants. 10. Jason and Sara both like sports.
Explanation:
We are supposed to choose between two forms of verbs in the present tense to complete the sentences above. One form is used for the persons "I, you, we, they". The other form - the one ending in -s - is for the third person singular (he, she, it). Therefore, we need to pay attention to the subject of each sentence. Let's choose two of them as an example:
3. Sara (feel/feels) stressed at work. --> The subject here is Sarah, or "she". The correct form of the verb is "feels".
10. Jason and Sara both (like/likes) sports. --> Here, both Jason and Sarah are the subject, which makes it plural (they). The best option then is "like".

Describe this story "The history of lift every voice and sing, the black anthem being played at NFL games
Summarize
Answer:
ul low note, then steadily rises in rhythm, spanning the pain and promise of Black history, picking up pace in the stanzas until its final crescendo. The song’s opening words have long been a source of inspiration and comfort to African Americans:
Lift ev’ry voice and sing,
'Til earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty;
On Thursday night in Kansas City, the National Football League featured a live performance of “Lift Every Voice” by Alicia Keys before its season-opening games, a display prompted by the police brutality and racial justice protests that have swept the country after the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery. The league’s decision to play “Lift Every Voice” exposed millions of Americans to the song for the first time.
Most Americans support athletes speaking out, say anthem protests are appropriate, Post poll finds
The song, known as the Black national anthem, was played more than 20 minutes before “The Star-Spangled Banner,” which was written by slaveholder Francis Scott Key and includes lyrics about the capture of escaped slaves who fought for the British during the War of 1812.
“Playing the Black national anthem is wonderful to acknowledge what Black people have been through in this country, but that doesn’t negate the racist authorship of the ‘Star Spangled Banner,’ ” said CeLillianne Green, a historian, poet, lawyer and author of the book “A Bridge: The Poetic Primer on African and African American Experiences.” “Most people don’t know what the second and third stanzas say in the national anthem and that Francis Scott Key was outraged by Black people fighting for their freedom. They hide those stanzas.”
“Lift Every Voice” was composed as poem in 1899 by novelist, poet and civil rights leader James Weldon Johnson when he was principal of a Black high school in the segregated city of Jacksonville, Fla., according to the Library of Congress. His brother John Rosamond Johnson — who had trained in musical conservatories in London and Boston — composed music for the poem.
The song, according to James Weldon Johnson, was first performed by his students. “A group of young men in Jacksonville, Fla., arranged to celebrate Lincoln’s birthday in 1900,” Johnson explained. “My brother, J. Rosamond Johnson, and I decided to write a song to be sung at the exercises. I wrote the words and he wrote the music. Our New York publisher, Edward B. Marks, made mimeographed copies for us, and the song was taught to and sung by a chorus of five hundred colored school children.”
Soon after that first performance, the Johnson brothers moved to New York and almost forgot about the song. But “Lift Every Voice” seemed to take on a life of its own.
AD
“The school children of Jacksonville kept singing it,” Johnson said. “They went off to other schools and sang it; they became teachers and taught it to other children. Within twenty years it was being sung over the South and in some other parts of the country.”

pleasee guys help.... Write a persuasive speech about something you hate.
It could be: a celebrity, food, a place.
Answer:I hate onions
Explanation: I hate onions and I would not like to even eat it even if someone payed me. It’s smell disgusts me and if I try to eat it I’d vomit. I can’t be near onions especially when they cut them around me I start crying. Cooked or uncooked I hate you onion there’s nothing that could change that .
Answer:
That depends on you. What do you hate, and once you figure that out you can follow my example.
(This is just an example!! I love her series, but I need to do this because I wasn't sure what I hated...Forgive me if you like her books)Example:
I don't like Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. This book is awful! There are so many spelling and grammatical errors it's comical. I already despise Bella. There is nothing redeeming about her. Much of this book has several pages of random rambling that you can skip over without missing anything. Just on the surface the book is complete trash. The real issue is the story that is being sold to young girls. Someone stalking you, wanting to murder you, control your life, and removing you away from all friends and family is a monster. This is not love at all. Young girls reading this are taught to take all of this lightly and the wrong definition of love. He does this because he loves me, etc....This whole book series is literally the cycle of abuse over and over. This is basically constant domestic violence made into a love story. This absolutely disgusts me.

Can you give a paragraph on how to persuade a student to get an education?
Answer:
speak on the benefits like making tons of money, become famous depending on what career you choose, be more open minded in different situations
Answer:
Explanation:
People with higher education and varied experience are more likely to get high-paying, expert jobs. Study hard, dedicate your time and effort to acquire knowledge and reach a high level of competence if you would like to lead a comfortable lifestyle. Your credentials are what will motivate a potential employer to choose you instead of another candidate. Studying hard throughout your school and studies shows you are not afraid of hard work and are able to fulfill your goals. Employers see this as a huge advantage as they all prefer a responsible and knowledgeable workforce. Once you graduate, you can start searching for jobs that will give you the opportunity to practice what you have learned and, at the same time, secure sufficient pay for your needs.Finding a job is not always easy. You often need to compete with hundreds of other candidates for a vacant position. In addition, the lower the education level, the greater the number of people applying for the same low-paying entry-level post. However, with the right qualifications and educational background, you will increase your chances of landing a fulfilling job.
Which of the following does NOT belong to the group based on its mode
roduction?
A. Butterfly
B.Frog
C. Dog
D. Mosquito
Complete Question:
Which of the following does NOT belong to the group based on its mode of reproduction.
Group of answer choices.
A. Butterfly
B.Frog
C. Dog
D. Mosquito
Answer:
C. Dog
Explanation:
The mode of reproduction of a dog is different from the other living organisms listed above because it is a mammal. Mammals carry their foetus in their womb for a specific period of time before the offspring is then delivered.
Generally, mammals experience a gestation period and it is typically between 58 to 68 days for dogs. This gestation period refers to the period between when fertilization of the egg cells occur and when the mammalian organism gives birth.
Also, unlike the insects and reptiles such as frog, butterfly, or mosquitoes, mammals breastfeed their offsprings.
