plz help me
Answer:
Explanation:
This morning I hopped on my town bike, a 1956 Schwinn Tornado, and cruised 10 minutes to the coffee shop. I did not wear a helmet. I sipped an espresso, high-fived some friends, and excavated my inbox. Then I rode home and kitted up for a road ride. On the way out the door, I grabbed my helmet off the hook and plopped it on my head.If you’ve ever ridden a bike without a helmet, you’ve likely run into helmet scolds. They’ll tell you at length why you should never ride without one, about the risks and dangers. Don’t you know cycling is perilous, even for seasoned riders? They’ll come armed with statistics and tell you about that one time they crashed unexpectedly while pedaling around the block.
Are helmet advocates right? Should we always wear a helmet when we ride?
Forbes contributor and BikeBiz founder Carlton Reid doesn’t think so. In a column published on Monday, Reid lists the many activities he does without a helmet. He walks on icy sidewalks and cleans the gutters on his roof. If we don’t wear helmets for these daily but potentially deadly tasks, he argues, we shouldn’t bother when we ride a bike. The expectation that we should only.I think yes we should ride a bike while wearing helmet.
How does social class affect how people in different parts of Panem perceive the games? What are examples of how social classes bring people together in the games?
Answer:
hi I hope my answer is helpful in anyway.
Explanation:
Social class affects people in different parts of Panem because the richer you are the less you see of the poor Districts, money is significant in the society of Panem. The richer you are in the world of Panem the less you need to worry about the poor people at the bottom because they mean nothing to you. Capitol residents have often been said to treat the Hunger Games-like a celebrated sporting event and a highly anticipated source of entertainment and past time. It is like a reality show, the rich people at the top don’t think of how much the Districts have struggled, even if they did, they see it as a form of entrainment, like a dramatic back story in a TV show.
The people of the Districts are brought together in the games to fight each other, their social status is pretty much the same, inferior to the Capital. They can bond over it for a bit and may even find a way to rebel (as seen in the second book). Like how people with common ground can come together, the Districts come together because of the games and how they are forced to fight in them. The same with the Capital, the Capital residents come together because of the games, giving money and items to their favorite triubutes, and betting on which one will win.

Write a TDA to answer the following question:
The Red Badge of Courage -- How did the author use irony to show Henry's unrealistic view of himself and the world?
The Secret Garden --Explain the following quote from the novel and how it relates to Mary's life. "Where you tend a
rose, my lad, a thistle can not grow." PLEASE I NEED THIS ASAP
Answer:
“The quote ‘Where you tend a rose my lad a thistle can not grow’ means when you think good thoughts bad ones won't come in. When Colin was always thinking he was going to die and become a hunchback he was weak and ill. When Colin thought good thoughts he became stronger, he walked, and he also beat Mary in a race. He also started thinking that he was going to live forever. When he stood, Mary was telling him constantly ‘You can do it.’ That got the positive thoughts into his head. There is a humongous difference between old Mary and new Mary. Old Mary had bad thoughts so she looked horrible and was a spoiled brat. New Mary is healthy, smart, and encouraging. She helps Colin when he is in tantrums. Colin isn't so ashamed of himself now that he can stand. He went up to his father and told him he was going to be a strong living boy. It says ‘Thoughts are as powerful as batteries. They can be as good as sunlight or as bad as poison.’”
Hope this helps!
Explanation:
For red garden The author uses irony in one place at the end of the second day Henry is still full of delusion and egocentricity; the irony is that he does not seem to ever have a grasp on who he really is while he tells himself repeatedly that he is a hero and a man. Crane's tone is ironic throughout, and provides a layer of complexity to the novel.
The quotes means two things cannot be at one place it relates to her life because she is saying she only needs positive thoughts not mixed with negative

Evaluate the author’s argument that the use of artificial sweeteners is a controversial issue. Consider the author’s reasoning and use of evidence, and identify examples of irrelevant evidence and problematic reasoning. Use specific information from the text to develop your response.
Could someone please give me an example of a response to this? From any passage?
I'd also like what 'Consider the author’s reasoning and use of evidence, and identify examples of irrelevant evidence and problematic reasoning.' means.
This needs to be due today!!!
Answer: Artificial Sweetners. Artificial sweeteners were made for people who cannot eat sugar or who want to cut down on calories from sugary foods. After many years of use, artificial sweeteners are still controversial. Some people think that they are good because they do not cause cavities and may help them lose weight.
Explanation: Make a postive vs negative effect on how bad it is and how great it tastes. EXAMPLE: Artificial sweeteners have been scrutinized intensely for decades. Critics of artificial sweeteners say that they cause a variety of health problems, including cancer. That's largely because of studies dating to the 1970s that linked the artificial sweetener saccharin to bladder cancer in laboratory rats. EXAMPLE 2: “Non-nutritive sweeteners are far more potent than table sugar and high-fructose corn syrup. A miniscule amount produces a sweet taste comparable to that of sugar, without comparable calories.

Explanation:
When a child says, “I don’t see why I have to know that; I can’t remember it anyway,” he is voicing a very reasonable protest. Of course, there are plenty of instances of wilful shirking, where a little effort can overcome the slackness of memory; but every teacher who is honest enough to reckon with himself knows he cannot give a sensible reason why things are to be taught which have so little to do with the child’s life that to-morrow, or the day after examination, they will be forgotten; things which he himself could not remember were he not repeating them year in and year out, as a matter of his trade. And every teacher who has thought at all for himself about the essential nature of the young humanity he is dealing with, knows that six hours of daily herding and in-penning of young, active bodies and limbs, accompanied by the additional injunction that no feet are to be shuffled, no whispers exchanged, and no paper wads thrown, is a frightful violation of all the laws of young life. Any gardener who should attempt to raise healthy, beautiful, and fruitful plants by outraging all those plants’ instinctive wants and searchings, would meet as his reward—sickly plants, ugly plants, sterile plants, dead plants. He will not do it; he will watch very carefully to see whether they like much sunlight, or considerable shade, whether they thrive on much water or get drowned in it, whether they like sandy soil, or fat mucky soil; the plant itself will indicate to him when he is doing the right thing. And every gardener will watch for indications with great anxiety. If he finds the plant revolts against his experiments, he will desist at once, and try something else; if he finds it thrives, he will emphasize the particular treatment so long as it seems beneficial. But what he will surely not do, will be to prepare a certain area of ground all just alike, with equal chances of sun and amount of moisture in every part, and then plant everything together without discrimination,—mighty close together!—saying beforehand, “If plants don’t want to thrive on this, they ought to want to; and if they are stubborn about it, they must be made to.”
In the second sentence of this paragraph, the repetition of the word “things” primarily serves to:
A) qualify a claim by acknowledging an exception to it

D) illustrate a generalization with a particular case
E) strengthen an assertion by broadening its implications

This is an example of a bibliographic reference made by the APA format.

Synonyms and antonyms! Help please
Answer:
16. generic/proprietary - antonyms
17. domestic/private - synonyms
18. ambitious/desire - synonyms
19. prestigious/reputable - synonyms
20. orderly/untidy - antonyms
Explanation:
Antonyms refer to words that are opposite in meaning to other words. Simply put that an antonym is the opposite of another word. While synonyms are words or phrases that means same thing or nearly means the same thing as the word.
From the given words, we discover that generic and proprietary are opposite words. The context in which generic is used as the opposite of proprietary is when it means not having a brand name. So, proprietary is the opposite.
Domestic and private, ambitious and desire and prestigious and reputable are synonymous while orderly and untidy are opposite.
