Read the excerpt below and answer the question.
But is the trend great for consumers? Perhaps not—some influencers have deceived their followers and made it impossible to escape advertising. Furthermore, influencers have caused our social media to become overrun with advertisements in a way that may frustrate or confuse people. In the past, it was very clear when you were looking at an online advertisement. Advertisements were everywhere, but they were fairly easy to ignore. Now, it is not immediately clear when we are being advertised to. It takes a bit more thinking to identify the advertisement because it blends in with all the other posts you are scrolling through.
Which of these inferences about the author’s point of view is best supported by the excerpt above?
a
The author believes that advertising through Instagram influencers is sometimes deceptive.
b
The author believes that Instagram influencers are irresponsible.
c
The author believes that people put way too much trust in influencers they don't really know.
d
The author believes that influencers are only doing it for the money.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
C because the author says that you just mindlessly scroll past that post like every other one on your feed.
The authors of “The Little Rock Nine” and “A Sit-in at Woolworth’s” use different text structures to communicate their ideas. Identify the text structure of each passage and give one detail from each passage that helps illustrate its structure.
Explanation:
Internal tensions within the ecclesiastical operations of African Methodism coexisted with the broad activism of African Methodist Episcopal members (AMEs) in civil rights, Black Power, and anticolonial insurgencies. The bishops and other clerical and lay leaders whose vocations focused on denominational affairs contrasted with militant ministers and members who defined African Methodism through a praxis that aimed at societal reconstruction in the United States and ending colonialism in Africa. The objectives of denominational governance, however, diverted attention away from energized opposition to hegemonic structures and practices that harmed AME constituencies. Though the maintenance of African Methodism as a proud and independent religious body remained as a worthwhile demonstration of black self-determination and institutional autonomy, this preoccupation caused some leaders to extend only perfunctory support to significant initiatives against white supremacy. Some clergy, however, balanced their immersion in denominational affairs with social activism. Such ministers similarly advocated significant reform within the AME Church to effect fiscal accountability and greater democracy in ecclesiastical governance.

Walking is not the most exciting form of exercise a person can take on for fitness. Yet it is low impact and requires no fancy equipment. That makes walking a simple activity for those new to exercise. Walking is less likely than other exercises to cause injury to leg tendons and muscles. All it requires is a good pair of sneakers-no cables, stylish outfits, or weights required. Of course, a person could increase the benefit of a workout by adding weights or speed walking.

Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids by Russell Freedman. The writer Angelo Pellegrini has recalled his own family’s detention at Ellis Island: We lived there for three days – Mother and we five children, the youngest of whom was three years old. Because of the rigorous physical examination that we had to submit to, particularly of the eyes, there was this terrible anxiety that one of us might be rejected. And if one of us was, what would the rest of the family do? My sister was indeed momentarily rejected; she had been so ill and had cried so much that her eyes were absolutely bloodshot, and Mother was told, “Well, we can’t let her in.” But fortunately, Mother was an indomitable spirit and finally made them understand that if her child had a few hours’ rest and a little bit to eat she would be all right. In the end we did get through. Most immigrants passed through Ellis Island in about one day. Carrying all their worldly possessions, they left the examination hall and waited on the dock for the ferry that would take them to Manhattan, a mile away. Some of them still faced long journeys overland before they reached their final destination. Others would head directly for the teeming immigrant neighborhoods of New York City. Which line from the excerpt is an example of the author paraphrasing?
We lived there for three days - Mother and we five children . . .
My sister was indeed momentarily rejected . . .
Most immigrants passed through Ellis Island in about one day.

Read this passage from Through the Looking-Glass. “I always thought they were fabulous monsters!” said the Unicorn. “Is it alive?” “It can talk,” said Haigha, solemnly. The Unicorn looked dreamily at Alice, and said, “Talk, child.” Alice could not help her lips curling up into a smile as she began: “Do you know, I always thought Unicorns were fabulous monsters, too! I never saw one alive before!” “Well, now that we have seen each other,” said the Unicorn, “if you'll believe in me, I'll believe in you. Is that a bargain?” “Yes, if you like,” said Alice. How does the author develop the Unicorn’s character in this passage? He uses the Unicorn’s actions to show a changing attitude: at first the Unicorn dreams about monsters, but later he smiles at Alice. He uses the Unicorn’s conversation with Alice to show a changing attitude: at first the Unicorn thinks Alice is a monster, but later he becomes her friend. He uses the Unicorn’s thoughts to show a changing attitude: at first the Unicorn wonders if Alice is alive, but then he thinks she is funny. He uses the Unicorn’s beliefs to show a changing attitude: at first the Unicorn believes Alice is a monster, but then he believes in the Lion.

Passage- As the editor of the student newspaper, I'm very concerned about our participation levels for the upcoming school year. By my calculations, five of our 12 members have graduated and another two have switched schools. In addition, in a recent student survey, only 15 percent listed "writing" or "photography" as interests, which are our two greatest needs.I do have a solution, though. I think that a representative from our club should go around to each of the junior high classrooms and do a short presentation on why students should join the newspaper. This way, students will have a more personal invitation — studies show that people are twice as likely to take part in something when they know someone involved or have been personally asked. Also, I happen to know that both the astronomy club and jazz band have had great success using this classroom-to-classroom approach. In fact, each group nearly doubled its membership by doing so.
Identify it's two central ideas. Then explain how each central idea is backed up by supporting details.
Answer:
The two central ideas are getting more people to join the newspaper. And how personally asking somebody will more than likley get them to join. studies show that people are twice as likely to take part in something when they know someone involved or have been personally asked.

What is a central idea developed in the beginning of your Novel by Raina Telgemeier?
-Use the RADDE writing strategy
Answer:
R: Read
Raina Telgemeier's novel Smile tells the story of a middle school girl named Raina who is struggling with a variety of issues. The novel is a graphic memoir and recounts Raina's real-life experiences.
A: Ask
What is the central idea developed in the beginning of Smile by Raina Telgemeier?
D: Determine
After reading the beginning of the novel, the central idea developed is that Raina is looking forward to getting braces, hoping they will fix her teeth and boost her self-confidence.
D: Locate and Highlight
"I was just starting sixth grade when my dental nightmare began." (page 3)
"Getting braces was a good thing. I was excited to finally get them..." (page 8)
"I was so happy! I couldn't stop smiling. I felt like a brand-new person." (page 10)
E: Evaluate
Raina's excitement about getting braces sets up the central conflict of the novel, which is her journey towards accepting herself regardless of her physical appearance. Raina's initial excitement about the braces shows that she believes they will solve all of her problems and make her feel better about herself. However, the rest of the novel shows that this is not the case, and that self-acceptance comes from within rather than from external changes.
Therefore, the central idea developed in the beginning of Smile by Raina Telgemeier is that Raina is hopeful that getting braces will fix her teeth and increase her self-confidence, setting up the central conflict of the novel.

Read the passage from The American Plague.
Adding to his frustration was the fact that very few official papers had made their way to him at Mount Vernon. Washington was a stickler for orderly files that he could search at a moment's notice. This was the most important way he kept himself informed about the hundreds of things happening in the fledgling nation. Unfortunately, when the government clerks had panicked and dashed from Philadelphia, they had abandoned all papers and records in boarded-up houses. No one knew where these documents were; and no one was willing to risk his or her life wandering, through the infected city in search of them.
What conclusion does the cause-and-reflect relationship in this passage support?
Washington lacked the information he needed to govern effectively.
Washington got information in other ways so he could govern effectively.
Washington was so angry at the clerks that he did not govern effectively.
Washington was too frustrated by his missing papers to govern effectively.
Mark this and return
I believe the answer would be " Washington was too frustrated by his missing papers to govern effectively ", If this is the wrong answer, I'm deeply sorry

Read the poem in spirit of war by Angela Morgan
in spirit of war in spirit of death in spirit of all man suffering something within me laughs and sings and I must praise with all my breath Inspired War in Spite of Hate lilacs are blooming at my gate tulips are tripping down the path despite a war in spite of breath courage the morning glory south rejoice the daisy murmured And just to live is so divine When pansies left their eyes to mine The clouds are roaming with the sky and lashes waves called back to me then not is real But what is far The everywhere and everywhere a glory life through despite despair 3 guns May Roar and Cannon's Boom roses are born in Gardens Bloom My spirit tell me like it's fine at the same torch once poppies came where mornings alter within burns Lily's may lift their silver earns in spite of war in spite of shame and in my ear a whispering breath wake up from the nightmare look and see that life is not but stays In spite of war in spite of death
discuss the meaning of two instance of figurative language then choose three words and explain how the connections of those three words create meaning in the poem
pls help if you don't know the answer pls dont answer
Answer:
There is repetition, where the poet has repeated "in spite of", meaning that despite these things, all of this still happens. There is also imagery in this example. Using the words, we can see what the speaker wants us to see. They want us to see the morning burns whiteley, or how life is full of joy, and yet it is despite all of the war and death. A "whispering breath" can mean two things. That the speaker is dreaming, or that the voice they hear is their own, in their mind. "Altar" is being used as a setting, a place we can see the morning, unlike in other poems. Lastly, we see the word "ecstasy"be used, and while it literally means something that is full of joy and happiness, the connotation here is the same thing.

Workers on strike - Ananya press - workers in strike - demand increase in salary allowances and bonus - 10 days negotiation failed - hunger strike from tomorrow
Title: Ananya Press Workers Launch Hunger Strike Amid Stalled Negotiations
Subtitle: 10-day negotiation period ends without resolution as workers demand increased salaries, allowances, and bonuses.
ANANYA CITY (June 29, 2023) - Employees of Ananya Press, one of the leading printing presses in the region, have declared they will begin a hunger strike tomorrow. This drastic measure comes after a 10-day negotiation period with the company’s management failed to reach a resolution concerning increased salaries, allowances, and bonuses.
Workers at Ananya Press have been on strike for over a week, putting a halt to operations. The employees’ grievances include demands for an increase in salary, a rise in allowances, and an annual bonus that reflects the growing demands of their job and the rising cost of living.
According to the workers’ union spokesperson, Ms. Ritu Sharma, the decision to embark on a hunger strike was not taken lightly. "We have been trying to engage in constructive dialogue with the management for the past 10 days," she explained. "Unfortunately, our attempts have not led to any significant changes or offers, leaving us with no other option but to escalate our protest."
During the negotiations, workers sought a 15% increase in their salaries, a substantial rise in housing and transport allowances, and a performance-based annual bonus. However, the management of Ananya Press stated that the demands were "unfeasible", citing concerns over the current economic climate and operational costs.
Mr. Rajiv Mehra, the CEO of Ananya Press, stated that the company had offered a "fair and reasonable" 5% salary increase along with a modest increment in allowances. However, this offer was rejected by the workers as being insufficient to meet their needs.
The impending hunger strike has raised concerns among local authorities, who are monitoring the situation closely. The mayor of Ananya City, Mrs. Geeta Singh, urged both parties to return to the negotiation table. "We cannot allow this to escalate further. The welfare of the workers is paramount and so is the continuity of business for Ananya Press, which is a crucial player in our local economy," she commented.
As the workers prepare for their hunger strike tomorrow, there is growing concern for the future of Ananya Press and the livelihoods of its employees. Both parties face mounting pressure to resolve their differences and find a solution that satisfies the workers' demands while ensuring the company's sustainability.
For now, the eyes of the community, as well as the nation, are focused on the unfolding drama at Ananya Press. The hunger strike marks a critical turning point in the ongoing labor dispute, and the consequences of this action are yet to be seen.
