Someone might agree to that because they believe that yes honesty is the best policy because for one, you are not lying to them. You're trusting them with the honset truth. Another reason someone might agree with the statement is that lying is something you will have to keep lying about. If you tell the truth, you'll be able to forget about it after a bit and not keep up an act. The last reason someone might agree is that it's slightly less stressful than lying and you're getting it out and over with.

But Someone might disagree with the statement because The truth can sometimes be harsh and something you don't want to hear. The truth can be used to hurt someone emotionally. The truth can also be a form of black mail.

Michael and Bart did not finish their experiment in science class so Mr. Velasquez asked them to stop by after school however they couldn’t because they had football practice. How should the sentence BEST be written?

Answers

Answer:

Michael and Bart did not finish their experiment in science class so Mr. Velasquez asked them to stop by after school. However, they couldn’t because they had football practice.

Explanation:

According to the given sentence, "Michael and Bart did not finish their experiment in science class so Mr. Velasquez asked them to stop by after school however they couldn’t because they had football practice", some elements of the sentence are incorrect, such as punctuation, capitalization, etc.

Therefore, the sentence should BEST be written as "Michael and Bart did not finish their experiment in science class so Mr. Velasquez asked them to stop by after school. However, they couldn’t because they had football practice."

With the addition of period, the two differing ideas are separated which makes them have a better meaning.

Read the passage below.

How do Alaskans handle living in the darkness for so long? Many people adjust their lifestyles so that they can keep healthy. For example, they try to get used to starting their days in complete darkness and staying up long past sunset.
Sunlight is important to our bodies. We need it to make vitamin D. It also helps our mood. Many Alaskans take vitamin D supplements and have special lamps that provide sun-like light. They also keep as active as possible.
One of the best ways to cope with darkness is to be even more active during the summer. Summers bring up to 24 hours of visible light. During this time, Alaskans spend a lot of time outside enjoying nature. They soak up as much sunlight as possible and try to keep it in reserve for the winter.

Which quote from the text does not support the inference that living in Alaska can be a challenge?

a) "Many Alaskans take vitamin D supplements and have special lamps that provide sun-like light."
b) "Many people adjust their lifestyles so that they can… get used to starting their days in complete darkness and staying up long past sunset."
c) "During this time, Alaskans spend a lot of time outside enjoying nature."
d)"Summers bring up to 24 hours of visible light. Alaskans… soak up as much sunlight as possible and try to keep it in reserve for the winter."

Answers

Answer:

I  believe the quote that does not support the inference that living in Alaska can be a challenge is:

c) "During this time, Alaskans spend a lot of time outside enjoying nature."

Explanation:

Quotes A, B, and D all talk about the challenges of living in Alaska. Alaskans need to worry about their vitamin D intake, about adjusting their lifestyles to lack or excess of light, etc. However, option C does not talk of a challenge or a difficulty. If we read option C without the context given in the passage, we would not at all guess that it has anything to do with a difficult, demanding lifestyle. It sounds as if Alaskans simply get to have fun in nature. For that reason, letter C is the one that does not support the inference that living in Alaska can be a challenge.

Look back at the scene in which Bradley is being questioned by Principal Meyers.What effect does this dramatic irony in this scene have on the story?

A: It creates suspense because Bradley worries that he'll be found guilty of cheating.

B: It creates tension because Principal Meyers worries that he'll have to punish Bradley.

C: It creates humor because Principal Meyers is so taken aback by Bradley's lies.

D:It creates humor because Bradley is making his situation worse with his responses.

Answers

Answer:

B: It creates tension because Principal Meyers worries that he'll have to punish Bradley.

Explanation:

B is the best possible answer. The last two options, C and D don't apply because there is nothing in the text that even hints about humor. A is also incorrect because there is nothing in the passage that states what Bradley is getting in trouble for. Therefore that only leaves B.

The correct answer is simile.

Do you moan and groan whenever a teacher says that you need to improve your grammar? Do you take offense when
someone tells you that you made a mistake in grammar? Do you feel that studying and learning grammar is boring and
unnecessary? I hated studying grammar when I was in school. English is a very tricky language loaded with many rules and
just as many exceptions to those rules. By knowing these rules and exceptions, you'll be a better reader, writer, listener, and
speaker. Communicating with others is what it's all about.
