With Arizona's diverse topography, the temperature average for southern Arizona, including the Phoenix
metropolitan area, is lows of 30°F in the winter to over 100°F in the summer. In the northern portion of the
state, the temperature fluctuates from 20°F to 95°F. The highest temperature recorded was 127°F. The lowest
temperature recorded was -40°F. With such extreme highs and lows, what can people do to consistently
lower global warming in this state? Think in terms of the environment.
Answer:
Arizona will always high an extremely high energy consumption, and there is nothing to do about it. This is because it is a state that is part of a very developed country (the U.S.), standards of living are therefore high, and the climate and the shape of the cities make the use of air conditioning and cars, mandatory.
Explanation:
For this reason, instead of trying to reduce energy consumption, Arizona should promote a fast energy transition instead. The state should be dotted with solar energy and wind plants everywhere, since the majority of the territory is uninhabited desert. The state could even build nuclear power plants because nuclear is a realiable and cheap source of clean energy.
In conclusion, instead of trying to lower energy consumption, Arizona should make energy consumption come from clean and sustainable sources.
from Sense and Sensibility – CHAPTER IV
by Jane Austen
"What a pity it is, Elinor," said Marianne, "that Edward should have no taste for drawing."
"No taste for drawing!" replied Elinor, "why should you think so? He does not draw himself, indeed, but he has great pleasure in seeing the performances of other people, and I assure you he is by no means deficient in natural taste, though he has not had opportunities of improving it. Had he ever been in the way of learning, I think he would have drawn very well. He distrusts his own judgment in such matters so much, that he is always unwilling to give his opinion on any picture; but he has an innate propriety and simplicity of taste, which in general direct him perfectly right."
Marianne was afraid of offending, and said no more on the subject; but the kind of approbation which Elinor described as excited in him by the drawings of other people, was very far from that rapturous delight, which, in her opinion, could alone be called taste. Yet, though smiling within herself at the mistake, she honoured her sister for that blind partiality to Edward which produced it.
"I hope, Marianne," continued Elinor, "you do not consider him as deficient in general taste. Indeed, I think I may say that you cannot, for your behaviour to him is perfectly cordial, and if that were your opinion, I am sure you could never be civil to him."
Marianne hardly knew what to say. She would not wound the feelings of her sister on any account, and yet to say what she did not believe was impossible. At length she replied:
"Do not be offended, Elinor, if my praise of him is not in every thing equal to your sense of his merits. I have not had so many opportunities of estimating the minuter propensities of his mind, his inclinations and tastes, as you have; but I have the highest opinion in the world of his goodness and sense. I think him every thing that is worthy and amiable."
"I am sure," replied Elinor, with a smile, "that his dearest friends could not be dissatisfied with such commendation as that and I do not perceive how you could express yourself more warmly." Marianne was rejoiced to find her sister so easily pleased.
"Of his sense and his goodness," continued Elinor, "no one can, I think, be in doubt, who has seen him often enough to engage him in unreserved conversation. The excellence of his understanding and his principles can be concealed only by that shyness which too often keeps him silent and you know enough of him to do justice to his solid worth. But of his minuter propensities, as you call them you have from peculiar circumstances been kept more ignorant than myself. He and I have been at times thrown a good deal together, while you have been wholly engrossed on the most affectionate principle by my mother and I have seen a great deal of him, have studied his sentiments and heard his opinion on subjects of literature and taste; and, upon the whole, I venture to pronounce that his mind is well–informed, enjoyment of books exceedingly great, his imagination lively, his observation just and correct, and his taste delicate and pure. His abilities in every respect improve as much upon acquaintance as his manners and person. At first sight, his address is certainly not striking; and his person can hardly be called handsome, till the expression of his eyes, which are uncommonly good, and the general sweetness of his countenance, is perceived. At present, I know him so well, that I think him really handsome; or at least, almost so. What say you, Marianne?"
"I shall very soon think him handsome, Elinor, if I do not now. When you tell me to love him as a brother, I shall no more see imperfection in his face, than I now do in his heart."
Which two sentences show how the author develops the theme of love through Elinor's characterization?
A. Elinor is blind to Marianne's criticism of Edward.
B. Elinor decides to change Marianne's mind by being rude and stubborn.
C. Elinor rejects Marianne's opinion of Edward.
D. Elinor defends Edward by listing the traits that she has observed in him.
E. Elinor states that Edward is the most handsome man in England.

A resource that animal agriculture is deeply dependent on is water. One third of the planets fresh water is put into use because of the meat and dairy industry. In the United States approximately five percent of water-use is considered domestic and fifty five percent of these liquids are put into animal agriculture. Part of the fifty five percent of the water is also the water that’s given to the animals every day. The amount varies depending on the size of the animals and the environmental settings that take place. An example of this can be a cow that’ll drink an average of thirty gallons of water each day.

Explanation:
Based on this information, what can be concluded about the Venezuelan people's access to news?
Answer:
Venezuela is a South American nation located on the shores of the Caribbean Sea, which since the end of the 20th century has been governed by a dictatorial process (hidden under a supposed democracy) called "Bolivarian Revolution", established by the late Hugo Chavez and today led by his successor, Nicolas Maduro.
As a consequence of this situation, the political, civil and economic freedoms of the citizens of Venezuela have been cut off, which has generated not only a huge poverty rate but also a general economic crisis and a wave of Venezuelan migrants fleeing to other countries.
However, most of the media do not reproduce the information of this situation, since they are media controlled directly by the government, and respond to its interests. As a consequence, Venezuelans also suffer from serious misinformation about the consequences of the acts carried out by the government, in addition to a lack of freedom regarding access to knowledge and information emanating from the press.

Don't look to the Supreme Court for purple prose
WASHINGTON (AP) (99071391728)
The Supreme Court justices are nine smart men and women. But when it comes to writing, there's not a Shakespeare, Hemingway or even John Grisham among them.
``Trying to pick between the justices in majority opinion writing is rather like asking me whether I prefer Miracle Whip or mayonnaise,'' says Indiana University law professor Charles Geyh. ``You will rarely see what I regard as good writing in Supreme Court opinions.''
[…]
Most of the justices' opinions were no threat to the late Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes and other great opinion writers of the past.
Consider this gem, also by Scalia, in a decision in January involving the Federal Communications Commission's regulation of local telephone business:
``Respondents argue that avoiding this pari passu expansion of commission jurisdiction with expansion of the substantive scope of the act was the reason the `nothing shall be construed' provision was framed in the alternative: `nothing in this act shall be construed to apply or to give the commission jurisdiction' (emphasis added) with respect to the forbidden subjects.''
Got that?
What does the author want the reader to understand from the line in bold?
Supreme Court Justices are expected to be talented writers.
Supreme Court Justices are often quite talented writers.
Supreme Court Justices work hard to make their writing good.
Supreme Court Justices are not usually talented writers.

Read the Passage from “The Black Cat”
One morning, in cool blood, I slipped a noose about its
neck and hung it to the limb of a tree; - hung it with the
tears streaming from my eyes, and with the bitterest
remorse at my heart; – hung it because I knew that it had
offence; - hung it because I knew that in so doing I was
committing a sin - a deadly sin that would so jeopardize
my immortal soul as to place it - if such a thing were
possible - even beyond the reach of the infinite mercy of
the Most Merciful and Most Terrible God.
What effect does the narrator create by repeating the phrase "hung it"?
O A. It encourages the reader to sympathize with the narrator and his
emotions.
O B. It allows the reader to understand the reason behind the narrator's
actions.
C. It increases the violence of the action and highlights its
importance.
D. It helps the reader feel sorry for the car and what it had to endure
Answer:
Your answer is C.
Explanation:
The narrator keeps saying the words, "hung it", over and over so that you realize that he was intentionally being violent and cruel. He was doing it for the reason of just to do it. Very vicious. Very cruel. Very intent on letting the reader know he was just mean and evil.
Which statement best explains how the author develops Alejandro's complex view of his extended family in "One Thousand Miles"?
She shows their gentle and caring nature at the start of the story and then shows how they can also be unaware of how their behavior affects others at the end.
She captures both the minor annoyances his family members cause him with their loud and boisterous behavior, but also the happiness they bring his mother.
At first, she suggests that they are totally comfortable at Abuela Lola's home, but then she shows that the rest of the family is just as homesick as Alejandro.
At first, she shows how polite and gracious they are when talking to Alejandro, but then she reveals the mean things they say about him behind his back.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
She shows their gentle and caring nature at the start of the story and then shows how they can also be unaware of how their behavior affects others at the end.
She shows their gentle and caring nature at the start of the story and then shows how they can also be unaware of how their behavior affects others at the end. Hence option 1 is correct.
What is nature?Nature is defined as all the features, forces, and activities that exist or take place without the involvement of humans, all the plants and animals in the world. The physical environment that surrounds us and the life inside it, including the atmosphere, climate, natural resources, ecology, flora, wildlife, and people, interact to form this phenomenon.
She initially demonstrates how kind and polite they are when speaking to Alejandro, but later she confesses what they are saying about him behind his back. Alejandro's mother has a wonderful sense of humor, which makes her popular with every member of her family, and the author concentrates on that.
Thus, she shows their gentle and caring nature at the start of the story and then shows how they can also be unaware of how their behavior affects others at the end. Hence option 1 is correct.

They asked me what I wanted, and I finally said, "I don't know!"
They asked me "What I wanted", and I finally said, "I don't know"!
They asked me what I wanted, and I finally said, "I don't know"!
Answer:
B). They asked me what I wanted, and I finally said, "I don't know!"
Explanation:
The second option is correctly punctuated as it employs the comma(,), the exclamation mark(!), and the inverted commas("...") aptly. As per the rule, the reported words like 'they asked me what I wanted...said' are not written inside the inverted commas but the exact words "I don't know!" are. The other punctuation marks like a full stop, exclamation marks, etc. are put inside the inverted commas. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
