Which correctly completes the sentence?
A) costing
B) cost
C) costed
D) costen
The answer is: B) cost.
The tense of the clause is Present Perfect Simple, which is formed with the auxiliary verb has or have and the past participle. In this case, the verb cost is irregular - it does not take the past simple or past participle form with -ed. Actually, the past simple and the past participle forms of the verb cost do not change - the form remains the same: cost (infinitive)-cost (past simple)-cost (past participle).
Answer: the answer is letter B cost

How is St. Clare characterized through his dialogue? What do his words reveal about his character? Give two examples from the text to support your reasoning.
St. Clare excuses his failure to act against slavery to his harsh, slave-owning twin brother, Alfred, by claiming that one man can't really make a difference. So yeah
According to a different source, this question refers to the chapters 16-20.
In these chapters, we learn about St. Clare and his opinions regarding the plantation and the slaves. We learn that, although he is a slave owner, he is undecided about his opinion regarding slaves. On the one hand, St. Clare sees the benefit of having slaves and is not particularly concerned with political or social matters. On the other hand, he is not convinced that the system is just or fair, and wonders whether it is morally wrong to be a part of it.
This ambivalence can be seen in at least two instances. The first one happens when St. Clare talks to his wife. While she is an ardent defendant of slavery, he argues that slavery only exists because someone needs to pick cotton. Another example occurs when St. Clare talks to Tom. Tom believes that St. Clare does not respect himself and should try to change his life. St. Clare takes his advice and respects his opinion, which is not always common among slaveowners.

Read the passage from Animal Farm. All the men were gone except one. Back in the yard Boxer was pawing with his hoof at the stable-lad who lay face down in the mud, trying to turn him over. The boy did not stir. "He is dead,” said Boxer sorrowfully. "I had no intention of doing that. I forgot that I was wearing iron shoes. Who will believe that I did not do this on purpose?” "No sentimentality, comrade!” cried Snowball from whose wounds the blood was still dripping. "War is war. The only good human being is a dead one.” "I have no wish to take life, not even human life,” repeated Boxer, and his eyes were full of tears.
Which key details does Orwell include to support the central idea that Snowball is ruthless? Select two options.
"Boxer was pawing with his hoof at the stable-lad who lay face down in the mud, trying to turn him over."
“‘He is dead,’ said Boxer sorrowfully. ‘I had no intention of doing that.’”
“‘No sentimentality, comrade!’ cried Snowball from whose wounds the blood was still dripping.”
"War is war. The only good human being is a dead one.”
“‘I have no wish to take life, not even human life,’ repeated Boxer, and his eyes were full of tears.”
The two details that Orwell includes to support the central idea that Snowball is ruthless are C) "'No sentimentality, comrade!' cried Snowball from whose wounds the blood was still dripping" and D) "'War is war. The only good human being is a dead one'”.
In these two excerpts from Animal Farm by George Orwell, the author shows that Snowball, a character based on Leon Trotsky, has no mercy. Although Snowball is less devious than Napoleon, he also believes in the revolution and supports a life without humans, their enemies. He becomes one of the leaders on the farm after the animals exclude Mr. Jones and, eventually, he builds himself up as an idealist.
The key details that Orwell includes to support the central idea that Snowball is ruthless are:
-"‘No sentimentality, comrade!’ crieda Snowball from whose wounds the blood was still dripping."
-"War is war. The only good human being is a dead one."
These two quotes prove that Snowball shows no concern for the critical moment the characters are going through and for the feelings provoked in his peers. His ultimate concern is war, regardless of the subjects.
Read the following paragraph.
Keeping my mind on my writing is not easy when I stay at my grandmother's ocean-side cottage. Just about the time that I am going along pretty well, I glance out the window and see two huge bald eagles swooping and tumbling in a spectacular aerial display. Naturally, I have to leave my desk and rush to the doorway to watch the performance as long as it lasts. Then, as if a conspiracy were trying to keep me from working, two otters poke their shiny heads out of the water and hang there motionless. They watch to see what I am doing. As soon as I return to my desk, seagulls wheel into my window view and screech as they search for scraps of food. Within minutes this confusion of sounds stirs my aging St. Bernard out of a deep sleep, and he hauls his massive, lumbering body over to be petted. Mickey, my cat, can't stand to see any partiality so he is soon pacing back and forth across my ankles. As I wiggle my bare toes to tease Mickey, I realize that my legs have become stiff. I remember that I have not had my daily ride. So, I slip on my sandals, step out the door, spring onto my bike and pedal off down the beach. Meanwhile the composition in my typewriter sits and grows colder.
Does the paragraph support the topic sentence? That is, do all of the following sentences help develop the idea of the topic sentence?
yes
no
Final answer:
Yes, the paragraph does support the topic sentence by detailing the various distractions that prevent the author from focusing on writing at the ocean-side cottage.
Explanation:
The paragraph does indeed support the topic sentence, with each sentence contributing to the development of the idea that the author is easily distracted from writing by the environment at the grandmother's ocean-side cottage. The topic sentence sets out the premise that concentrating on writing is difficult, and the subsequent sentences detail the various distractions, such as bald eagles, otters, seagulls, pets, and personal needs, that pull the author away from the task. A strong topic sentence serves as an anchor for the reader, providing a clear statement of what the paragraph will discuss or argue. In narrative writing, it is not uncommon to have an implied topic sentence that sets the overall tone without explicitly stating the central idea. However, when checking the paragraph's alignment with the topic sentence, it's important to ensure there are smooth transitions between ideas, coherence within the paragraph, and that the chosen structure of topic sentence-details-topic sentence (if used) maintains a clear and logical progression of thought.

First of all, they are called indefinite pronouns. these words are not used to refer to people. they are used to refer to things. the correct used of those words depends on whether the sentence is affirmative, negative or interrogative.
"Something" most of the time is used in affirmative sentences. For example: Something is going wrong. or You have something to tell me.
However the pronoun "Anything" is a little bit different, because its meaning depends on what you really want to say or it changes according to the function of the phrase, it can be used in both ways, negative or affirmative. E.g: You can do anything. In contrast with the negative form you have to be careful with the negation of the auxiliary verbs and other words like "Never" or "No" that also imply a negation. For example: I have never anything to do or I don´t have anything to do.
By other size, the indefinite pronoun "Nothing" always means negative and it is used with the verb form in an affirmative way. E:G: I have nothing to do. You can not used the auxiliary verb with the negative form.
Finally, the word "Everything" refers to something that is related to the subject of a statement and to show importance of a single thing. E.G: This book means everything to me.
Compare and contrast W. H. Auden's "Musée des Beaux Arts" and William Carlos Williams's "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus." What similarities and differences do you see in the way the poets present ideas to the reader?
Compare and contrast W. H. Auden's "Musée des Beaux Arts" and William Carlos Williams's "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus."
What similarities and differences do you see in the way the poets present ideas to the reader?
The most important similarity between W.H. Auden and William Carlos Williams' poems is that both describe Pieter Brueghel's painting Landscape With The Fall of Icarus. Both poets illustrate the scene and all its surroundings with detail. Both poets exemplify with imagery the painting's scene and what it depicts.
Nevertheless, the poets do differ in other elements:
Auden presents his poem using free verse and divides it into two long stanzas without any rhyme. Although William Carlos Williams doesn't use rhyme either, he keeps a more traditional construction by dividing the poem into six stanzas with three lines in each.Auden reflects on suffering and the burden of routine depicted in the painting with more delicate and meditative observations. He mentions Icarus in the second stanza and contemplates his psyche in a deeper way. Williams, on the other hand, presents his ideas in a concise manner. He states the reader the facts and describes the painting with concrete examples. He mentions Icarus since the first stanza but doesn't concentrate on what he might have felt or what others might be feeling in that precise moment. Auden sensed the painting and tells the reader his experience when he saw it. Williams is an observer. He tells the reader a descriptive summary of what he saw without delving into his inner experience and thoughts.Read the excerpt from part 4 of Zeitoun. Moments later, another passing soldier looked at Zeitoun and muttered “Taliban.” And as much as he wanted to dismiss both comments, he couldn’t. Now he was sure that there was a grave misunderstanding taking place, and that unraveling it, disproving it, was going to take days. Todd ranted, but Zeitoun knew it would do no good. The question of their innocence or guilt would not be answered in this room, not any time soon. Why does the author include these details? to compare and contrast Todd and Zeitoun’s experiences to reveal the prevailing racist sentiment among the soldiers to acknowledge the need for a speedy trial for war criminals to emphasize Zeitoun’s efforts to understand the soldiers
The answer is: to reveal the prevailing racist sentiment among the soldiers.
In the excerpt from "Zeitoun," the author describes they way the Syrian protagonist is accused of terrorism by the soldiers. The suspect he might be involved in terrorist activities after they find a lage amount of money and maps of the city in one of his houses.
Answer: B- to reveal the prevailing racist sentiment among the soldiers

You and your classmates are discussing topic ideas for writing a narrative essay. Which is the best fit?
A) how to make sushi in five easy steps
B) my experiences at Camp Wocasuto
C) museums need local funding
D) my favorite season
The correct answer is B.
Whatever you want to do is fine with us.
A subordinate clause does not express a complete thought and can not stand alone as a sentence.
The correct answer is C.
A narrative essay should be telling a story. It should contain the plot, setting, characters and conflict.' How to make sushi' would be considered as receipt writing, the visit at Camp Wocasuto may not be a topic for everybody since we don't know how many classmates went there. 'My favorite season' is a description without action, not a good topic for an essay. 'Museums need local funding' could be made into an interesting story where different points of views are presented, for and against arguments discussed and some real facts and examples described. It is also a topic everybody in the class could write an essay about because everybody knows what a museum is.

The history of mankind is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations on the part of man toward woman, having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.
Having deprived her of this first right of a citizen, the elective franchise, thereby leaving her without representation in the halls of legislation, he has oppressed her on all sides
He had made her, if married, in the eye of the law, civilly dead.
What is the best strategy you can use to clarify the concept of elective franchise?
Reread paragraph 1 to find a synonym.
Reread paragraph 1 to find an antonym.
Read ahead to the next sentence to find a context clue.
Use context clues within the sentence itself.
The best strategy you can use to clarify the concept of elective franchise is option 4: Use context clues within the sentence itself.
The sentence that includes the term "elective franchise" provides you with the following clues: "this first right of a citizen" and "leaving her without represenation in the halls of legislation". These clues help you understand the meaning of elective franchise. Thus, the concept can be explained as the right a citizen has to vote and to be represented.

Which best uses the evidence to support the viewpoint?
Distractions, such as sending and receiving text messages, are extremely dangerous for those driving, which is why great care should be taken to avoid any unnecessary distractions.
On average, text messages take 4.6 seconds to send or receive, which is a major distraction while driving and performing daily activities, especially if one sends and receives a lot of text messages throughout a day.
Cell phones are to blame for people who are distracted while driving, especially since studies have proven that sending or receiving a text message while driving takes an average of 4.6 seconds.
One major distraction that should be eliminated while driving is cell phones, as studies have shown that sending or receiving a text message diverts a driver’s attention from the road for an average of 4.6 seconds.
Which best uses the evidence to support the viewpoint?
The correct answer is:
One major distraction that should be eliminated while driving is cell phones, as studies have shown that sending or receiving a text message diverts a driver’s attention from the road for an average of 4.6 seconds.
This answer best uses evidence to support the viewpoint because it is the most complete of all the options. First, it goes direct to the point when using its main purpose, which is to eliminate the use of cellphones while driving. Second, it immediately shows the object that causes the distraction of drivers, which is cellphones. Third, it shows what specific actions distract drivers while using cell phones, which are sending or receiving a text message. Finally, and most importantly, it gives an exact measure of how much a driver takes to send and receive a text message, which is 4.6 seconds. Although, this is the best that uses evidence, it does not cite the sources properly, for example when it is mentioned, “as studies have shown”, the author should have mentioned the titles of the studies and what institutions made the studies. The author should have also included statistics comparing the different actions we do when using a cellphone while driving; answering a call, hanging up a call, playing music, etc.Answer:

Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Travels of Marco Polo. Dhofar is a fine city of great size and splendour lying about 500 miles north-west of Shihir. Here again the people are Saracens and worship Mahomet, and are subject to a count who is likewise subject to the sultan of Aden. You must understand that this city is still within the province of Aden. The city stands on the sea and has a very good port, frequented by many merchant ships that import and export great quantities of merchandise. Many good Arab steeds, and horses from other lands as well, are brought here, and the merchants make a handsome profit on them. The city has many other cities and towns under its sway. Here again good incense grows in profusion—I will tell you how. It is produced by trees of no great size, like little fir trees. They are gashed with knives in various places, and out of these gashes oozes the incense. Some of it even oozes from the tree itself without any gashing, in consequence of the great heat that prevails. As for the Arab steeds that are brought here, the merchants afterwards export them to India, making a good profit on the deal. How does the author's language in this passage reveal his opinion of Dhofar? Select two options. The author uses the phrase “stands on the sea” to describe Dhofar.

In this case "fine" does not mean okay. It is used similar to the word finery that would be used to describe jewels.
The author's language in this passage reveal his opinion of Dhofar in the following ways:
The author describes Dhofar's busy port as “very good.” The author describes Dhofar's busy port as “very good.” The author uses the words “fine” and “splendour" to describe Dhofar.It should be noted that the language that used by an author is used in illustrating the opinion of that author and how he or she feels.

Read the passage. Then answer the question. The Many Sides of Volunteering Most people agree that volunteering is a positive experience. Volunteers give back to the community, provide meaningful assistance to people in need, and use their experience and skills to improve the quality of life for others. However, the rewards of volunteering are not only based on giving. In fact, the act of volunteering may be even more beneficial to volunteers themselves than to the people they support. Volunteers are individuals who choose to provide assistance in many areas, from working with senior citizens, to walking dogs at the shelter, to building homes for the homeless. Volunteers are from all walks of life, but many work or go to school full time and arrange their busy schedules to work with others early mornings, evenings, or weekends. Some would argue that volunteering adds significant stress to already hectic lives. Interestingly, studies show that volunteering actually helps reduce stress, because individuals who volunteer report feeling a greater sense of purpose and self-worth. This happens because volunteers build strong social relationships that help carry them through challenging times. The act of helping others and making a difference actually enhances their life experience. As a result, research demonstrates that people who volunteer have lower mortality rates, better physical health, and lower rates of depression later in life than those who do not volunteer. Given this, it would appear that volunteering is an excellent way to combat stress! 1. What is the author’s argument in “The Many Sides of Volunteering”? How does the author support the argument? Use evidence from the text to support your response. Your response should be at least two complete paragraphs. Answer:
BY ANSWERING THIS QUESTION YOUR HELPING OTHERS FROM CRYING OF STRESS
1. What is the author’s argument in “The Many Sides of Volunteering”? How does the author support the argument? Use evidence from the text to support your response. Your response should be at least two complete paragraphs.
Answer: The authors argument is that volunteering helps many people, not just those being directly benefited in visible ways. The author uses statistics from a study to support his/her argument.
So take the information above and add lots of info and textual support to create at least 8-10 sentences. As long as you payed close attention to details this shouldn't be to hard. :)
Hope this helps!!
The authors argument is, why you should volunteer. They are stating many facts in order to persuade you into choosing the path they want you to go. With many good facts they have stated, they know they will hook you into doing so. The author uses statistics from a study to support his/her argument. Which, leads me to evidence which I took from the essay.
An argument stated is, “Some would argue that volunteering adds significant stress to already hectic lives.” Yet, the author gives statements supporting why that argument is indeed false. The author wrote, “Interestingly, studies show that volunteering actually helps reduce stress, because individuals who volunteer report feeling a greater sense of purpose and self-worth.” Although, pretty much all of the authors writing is pretty accurate and persuasive. The author gives good clarifications onto why volunteering is good. Therefore, I say this is a well written argumentative essay.
