The sentence that uses active voice is: "The town council members have written new guidelines for their weekly meetings." Therefore, option D is correct.
What are active voice sentences?Active voice sentences are those in which the subject of the sentence performs the action expressed by the verb. In an active voice sentence, the subject is the doer of the action, and the verb expresses the action that the subject is performing.
For example, "The cat chased the mouse." In this sentence, "cat" is the subject, and "chased" is the verb that expresses the action that the cat is performing.

Explanation:
Throughout The Call of the Wild, Buck struggles with a conflict between civilization and the wild. In the final chapter, how does this shift from an internal conflict to an external conflict? Your response should be no less than 150 words.
only answer if you know it I really need this. I've been taking this test for 4 hours I'm tired and I haven't eaten since breakfast so please don't just put "idk" or anything like that if you do your answer will be reported
Answer:
The internal conflict is that which exists within Buck between the civilized and the wild worlds. At the beginning of the story, he's a normal, domesticated dog living in comfort in the San Francisco area. When kidnapped and forced to serve on a sled team in the "Northland," a huge transformation occurs in his life. At the end of the story, this process of change is complete when Buck has joined a wolf pack as its leader. He's gone from one extreme to the other—complete comfort and domesticity to the condition of his remote ancestors in the wild.
Externally Buck is in conflict with his captors and with other animals in the sled team. The cruelty of both humans and animals, even prior to his transition into the fully uncivilized world (though this is a human-directed negation of the civilized), is what Buck has to contend with in order to stay alive.

CHAPTER II—THE SHE-WOLF, an excerpt
From White Fang
By Jack London
Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled, the men turned their backs on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries that were fiercely sad—cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another and answered back. Conversation ceased. Daylight came at nine o'clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge of the earth intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land.
As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and rear drew closer—so close that more than once they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs, throwing them into short-lived panics.
At the conclusion of one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the traces, Bill said:
"I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone."
"They do get on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized.
They spoke no more until camp was made.

You have the audience in mind when writing it affects how you write because you would want to please them or make it as best as you can to make it good.

Racing to Race
Carlo stopped to rest for a minute and tried to catch his breath. He’d been running for so long that he had pains in his side and his legs were beginning to hurt. He hunched over and tried to expand his lungs, but it was like trying to suck air out of a bicycle tire. His body was too exhausted to even allow him to take a deep breath, and he started to wheeze again.
“Great,” he thought, “let me just add asthma to my expanding list of ailments. I can’t believe that I can’t even jog two miles without completely collapsing!” He finally gave in to his aching body and laid down on the grass to recuperate. He closed his eyes and tried to imagine himself running on the school track in the 1,600-meter race. He pictured himself running steadily toward the finish line, running effortlessly like a cheetah in the jungle. He was so lost in thought that he didn’t even hear Meiya approach.
“Hey sleepyhead, what are you doing napping on Sean’s lawn in the middle of the day?” Meiya asked playfully.
Carlo quickly sat up, breathing normally now and feeling a little embarrassed. “I am trying to get in shape to try out for track, but I can’t even run two miles,” he said dejectedly.
“Wait, how many months are you out of surgery? Didn’t you just finish rehab last week?” Meiya asked. “You can’t expect to run two miles the first day.”
It had been six months since Carlo’s surgery and he specifically remembered the doctor telling him he could start running after six months. But he thought about what Meiya had said and realized she had a good point. After his surgery, the doctor did say rehab would be crucial to his recovery but that it would take time for him to gain back full use of his leg. He thought about how a baby had to learn to walk before it could run. He remembered when his nephew was learning to crawl; within days it seemed like he was walking. Running didn’t come right away, Carlo remembered. He realized it was the same with his therapy. The maximum he had run in the past month was one mile on the treadmill, so he realized that Meiya was probably right. He would have to work at building up his endurance and set more realistic goals for himself. As he thought about what he had already accomplished, he started to smile and felt like a weight was being lifted off his shoulders. He realized that he had run almost a mile and a half before his body started to protest and if he kept working hard, he could get back to where he was before his accident.
“Since when did you get so smart, Dr. Meiya?” he teased. “Do you want to race to the next mailbox?”
“You’re on!” she challenged and took off running at full speed.
Read the sentence from “Racing to Race.”
"Hey, sleepyhead, what are you doing napping on Sean's lawn in the middle of the day?" Meiya asked playfully.
What does this sentence reveal about how Meiya views Carlo?
Meiya knows Carlo well enough to know that he won't take offense at her teasing.
Meiya thinks that Carlo is not a very good athlete.
Meiya is sarcastic to hide the fact that she does not really like Carlo.
Meiya is concerned about Carlo’s lack of energy.
Answer:
Meiya knows Carlo well enough to know that he won't take offense at her teasing.

Read the following paragraphs carefully to see if they create a mood.
My name is Cory. I don't really know why I watched hidden under the table. I heard the hushed tones at the door as they asked for my mother. I couldn't choke back the tears as I caught the words "missing in action." No, I thought, not Dad. Missing in action is just a nice way of saying he's dead. He'll never come back, I thought. I wept openly. And yet, no one seemed to notice me. Hugging myself tightly, my heart was heavy as I listened to the men leave and my mother sob.
What kind of mood do the paragraphs above create?
Type an answer explaining what kind of mood is created. Use at least one example from the paragraph to demonstrate the mood. If no mood is created, type No mood is created.
Answer:
This definitely creates a mood. It describes the hardships Cory is experiencing. The paragraph describes him as “ choking back tears” and “weeping openly”. This creates a very vivid image and a mood that adapts.

What is a verbal phrase?
a phrase derived from a verb that functions as a noun or adjective rather than as a verb
a sentence that contains the verb and any direct and indirect objects but not the subject
a unit of words consisting of a helping verb preceding the main verb
the part of a sentence that contains a group of two or more verbs
Answer:
A verbal phrase is a phrase derived from a verb that functions as a noun or adjective rather than as a verb. This means that it is a group of words that includes a verb but is used as another part of speech, such as a noun or adjective.
For example, in the sentence "Swimming in the ocean is my favorite activity," "swimming in the ocean" is a verbal phrase that acts as a noun because it is the subject of the sentence.
There are three types of verbal phrases: gerunds, participles, and infinitives. Gerunds are verb forms that end in "-ing" and act as nouns. Participles are verb forms that end in "-ing" or "-ed" and act as adjectives. Infinitives are the base form of a verb preceded by the word "to" and can act as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs.
It's essential to understand the concept of verbal phrases because they play a significant role in sentence structure and can help to clarify the meaning of a sentence.

Write a compare-and-contrast analysis of how Greg Ridley from "The Treasure of Lemon Brown" changes from the beginning of the story to the end
Answer:
At the beginning of the story, Greg Ridley is in a bad mood, and is dreading receiving a lecture from his father, as he knows what the end result will be.
At the end of the story, Greg is anticipating a lecture from his dad once again, but this time, he smiles at the thought of it.
This change occurs because Lemon Brown tells Greg about how he lost his own son, and that the lessons and things a father gives a son should be treasured. Greg realizes this is true, and it shows in his character shift at the end of the story
Explanation:
The Case of the Missing Library Book
Mr. Berry, the librarian, had a reputation for being strict and for never making mistakes. He maintained complete order in the library and could tell immediately if a book was missing or misplaced. He did not say much. This struck fear into the students. They always said that Mr. Berry did not have to talk. When someone was careless with a book, the look on Mr. Berry’s face told that person everything he or she needed to know.
All of this contributed to making Tom feel terrible about losing the copy of Animal Farm that he had borrowed nearly four weeks earlier. It was as if the book had disappeared from the face of the earth. In fact, Tom had completely forgotten about the book until he received an overdue notice from Mr. Berry through the mail. Tom did not look forward to facing the librarian directly. When he left for school that morning, he felt as if he were going to his execution.
Tom’s fear increased with each tick of the clock. It was already fourth period by the time he talked himself into going to see Mr. Berry. As he walked to the library, his palms were sweating and he felt as though he had butterflies performing acrobatics in his stomach. When he walked through the doors, he saw that the library was deserted, except for Mr. Berry. Tom was happy that nobody would witness the embarrassing scene that was sure to erupt.
Upon seeing Tom, Mr. Berry said, "Oh Tom, I owe you an apology. I guess I made a mistake. I didn't realize that you had already returned Animal Farm." At first, Tom didn't know what to say, and then, much to his surprise, he found himself telling Mr. Berry that he hadn't returned the book, that he'd lost it, and that he'd looked all over for it but couldn't find it. Tom could not stop the words from coming out of his mouth.
When Tom finished, Mr. Berry smiled and said, "Well, somebody found it and returned it. That's the important thing. It's important to remember that everybody makes mistakes. I guess we both did in this case." Tom smiled too; he felt relieved. As he made his way back to class, he decided that he really liked Mr. Berry and that he would try to use the library more often.

‘Lamb to the Slaughter’ Constructed Response
What did Mary Maloney fear most and how did it affect her actions?
Answer/Explanation:
Mary Meloney fear most about her unborn children, being alone as well as getting caught for murdering her husband and this shows how it affect her action by cover up the murder. Furthermore, If she was discovered she would face more consequences if she pleaded guilty. In paragraph 47, Mary thought what were the laws about murderer with unborn children and she didn’t want to try it either. She then practiced in front of the mirror so she knew what to do along with acting normal. In addition, she went to the grocer (Sam) and this allowed Mary to have an explanation in case she was considered suspect. In conclusion, Mary asked the police to eat the lamb leg so she can get rid of the murder weapon as well as suspect. Therefore you can conclude that Mary Maloney fear affected her action.
~Lenvy~
In "Lamb to the Slaughter," Mary Maloney's dread of losing her nice life with her husband and newborn child is what finally prompts her to assassinate her husband.
Throughout the narrative, Mary is portrayed as a loyal and obedient wife who is satisfied with her existence as a housewife and excitedly anticipates her husband's arrival home from work.
What is meant by Slaughter?The term "animal slaughter" refers to the killing of animals, often domestic cattle. 80 billion land animals are said to be killed annually for food.
The majority of animals are killed for food, but some may also be killed for other purposes, such as for the purpose of harvesting fur,
because they are ill and unfit for eating, or because they are excess and needed to maintain a breeding stock.
Slaughter normally entails preliminary cutting, opening the main body cavities to remove the guts and offal, but often leaving the corpse intact.

Think of a time when you wanted to convince someone to agree with your point of view. Reflect and respond to the following: 1. How did that conversation go? What did you say to try to convince the other person to agree with you? 2. Did that strategy work? Why or why not?
Answer:
The conversation went quite well. I first started the conversation with a question that would make them rethink everything I was about to say. At least what I was arguing against. While I was talking about how the death penalty shouldn't exist, I was telling them the amount of money and statistics that go towards legal murder and how much money goes to just giving a person life. This strategy did work. The tone that I used and the passion that I put into speaking on the death penalty and all the facts that I used seemed to help my case.
