Answer and Explanation:
This question is about the short story "The Black Cat" by Edgar Allan Poe.
The narrator is originally a good man who, in the end, kills his own wife and their black cat.
Poe uses several symbols to portray the narrator's mental state. The original household, a good house where the narrator and his wife lived with several pets, represents freedom and balance. That was when the narrator was still a sane, loving man. The fire that destroys his home represents the decay of his mental state, its deterioration. Just like the fire consumed the house, alcoholism is consuming the narrator and his qualities. Finally, the impoverished house and the cellar - damp, dark, and suffocating - represent his insanity. The narrator is now trapped in his own craziness.
Choose the example that is a simile.
1) it is raining cats and dogs.
2) It is raining like cats and dogs.
3) It is raining hard.
4) It is raining outside.
Answer:2) It is raining like cats and dogs.
Explanation: All similes either use the words like or as. I hope this helps!!
Answer:
2) It is raining like cats and dogs.
Explanation:
A simile is a figure of speech comparing two things using like or as.
Statement two is comparing how hard it rains to cats and dogs, using the word 'like' to link the two ideas.
It is raining like cats and dogs.
Option 2 should be the correct answer.
Hope this helps.
to kill a mocking bird summerize chapters 1-6
Answer:
As Jem is raising his head to look in, the shadow of a man appears and crosses over him. ... Dill says goodbye to them, and Jem and Scout go to bed. Jem decides to go back and get his pants late that night. Scout tries to persuade him that it would be better to get whipped by Atticus than to be shot and killed
Explanation:
Answer:
Chapter 1
The narrator of the book is Scout Finch, the youngest child of Atticus Finch. Scout begins by telling us of her brother’s injured arm and of her family history. The earliest ancestor is Simon Finch, a fur trader who established Finch’s Landing outside of Maycomb, Alabama. Scout’s father is a lawyer and her mother passed away when she was two. She has an older brother named Jem. It is the summer and their neighbour’s nephew Dill has come to stay for the summer. They spend the summer playing together and speculating about the Radley house. The most suspicious resident of the Radley place is Boo, who neighbours believe stalks the neighbourhood at night. Dill challenges Jem to touch the Radley house, and after a couple of days of pressure, Jem gives in.
Chapter 2
In the fall, Dill goes back to his home in Meridian and Scout is about to begin her first year of school. Scout seems to start out on the wrong foot with her teacher, Miss Fisher. Miss Fisher is bothered that Scout reads so well. Scout explains that she has inadvertently learned from her father, and Miss Fisher requests that Scout’s father teach her no more. She believes that children should learn by the school’s teaching methods. Scout has also learned writing from their African-American cook, Calpurnia.
Soon after this exchange, Miss Fisher finds that Walter Cunningham has no lunch. She tries to give him money, but he will not accept. Scout tries to explain that the Cunningham’s take no charity they cannot return. Scout learned this when her father took a case for the Cunningham’s and they had to pay in crops, refusing to accept Atticus’ generosity. Scout cannot make this concept clear and gets in more trouble with Miss Fisher.
Chapter 3
Scout starts a fight with Walter at lunch since she blames him for getting in trouble with their teacher. Jem stops the fight and invited Walter back to their house for lunch. When at home Scout criticizes Walter for the way he eats his food, and Calpurnia scolds her for her behaviour. Back at school, Miss Caroline reacts badly to the “cooties” in a student’s hair. The student is Burris Ewell, who is from an extremely poor family. She sends him home, but the class explains that Ewell children only come to the first day of school anyway. When Burris leaves, he shouts obscenities at Miss Fisher, causing her to cry. The class tries to placate her.
Chapter 4
While walking home Scout finds two pieces of gum in the tree on the edge of the Radley lot. Later, she and Jem find two pennies in the same tree. The children have no idea who is leaving the items in the tree. School gets out for the summer and that means the arrival of Dill. The children start coming up with games to keep them occupied. During a game, Scout is rolled onto the Radley while in a tire. This gives Jem the idea for them to pretend to be the Radley family. Atticus finds them playing in the yard and suspects that their game is at the expense of their neighbors and tells the trio to stop. Scout tells Jem that they should listen to Atticus and do what he says, but Jem thinks they can keep plying without getting in any further trouble. Scout, though, is afraid. She believes that the afternoon she rolled into the Radley yard, she could here someone inside of the house laughing at them
Chapter 5
Scout begins to spend more time with Maudie Atkinson, their next door neighbor. She asks Miss Atkinson about Boo Radley. Miss Atkinson explains that the Radleys are very strict Baptists and they stay reclusive for religious reasons.
Meanwhile, Dill and Jem hatch a plan to give a note to Boo Radley. Dill and Scout are instructed to stand watch while Jem tries to slip the note into the house. Dill sounds the alarm that Atticus is coming down the street. The group is caught and Jem admits that they were trying to give a note to Boo. Atticus tells them to quit harassing the Radleys.
Chapter 6
Jem and Dill obey Atticus until Dill's last day in Maycomb, when he and Jem plan to sneak over to the Radley Place and peek in through a loose shutter. ... They escape under the fence by the schoolyard, but Jem's pants get caught on the fence, and he has to kick them off in order to free himself.

David ha fabricado una caja de cartón sin tapa para guardar sus cromos la caja tiene una base cuyos lados miden 30 cm y cuya altura mide 10 cm calcula la cantidad de cartón que ha necesitado David
Answer:
Se requieren 210 cm de cartón con un lado = 10 cm
Se requieren 70 cm de cartón con un lado = 30 cm
Explanation:
Spanish
Primero calcularemos el área de la superficie de la caja sin la tapa.
Los lados son de 30 cm, por lo que largo = ancho = 30 cm y alto = 10 cm
Superficie del fondo = largo * ancho = 30 * 30 = 900 cm²
Área de superficie de la parte delantera y trasera = 2 * alto * ancho = 2 * 10 * 30 = 600 cm²
Área de superficie del lado izquierdo y derecho = 2 * largo * alto = 2 * 30 * 10 = 600cm²
Superficie total = 900 + 600 + 600 = 2100 cm²
Entonces, si dividimos la superficie total por un lado (altura) = 2100cm² / 10cm = se requieren 210 cm de cartón
Se requieren 210 cm de cartón con un lado = 10 cm
o si dividimos la superficie total por un lado (largo) = 2100cm² / 30cm = se requieren 70 cm de cartón
Se requieren 70 cm de cartón con un lado = 30 cm
English
First we will calculate the surface area of the box without the lid.
The sides are 30 cm so length=width= 30 cm and height = 10cm
Surface area of the bottom = length *width = 30*30= 900 cm²
Surface area of front and back = 2*height * width = 2*10*30= 600 cm²
Surface area of left and right side = 2*length*height = 2*30*10= 600cm²
Total surface area= 900+600+600= 2100 cm²
So if we divide the total surface area by one side ( height ) = 2100cm²/ 10cm= 210 cm of card board is required
210 cm of card board is required with one side = 10 cm
or if we divide the total surface area by one side ( length ) = 2100cm²/ 30cm= 70 cm of card board is required
70 cm of card board is required with one side = 30 cm

Read the opening paragraph of Megan’s short story:
I was eleven years old when I first realized that I was different from everyone else. As a girl growing up with only brothers, I could slug a baseball, hold my own in a rough-and-tumble game of tag football, and skate backward like my older brother. Sure, I played with dolls, too, and I really liked my dancing lessons. But most of all, I felt okay about me. Then something happened. I became the new kid in a new school; I became the kid nobody liked. And I didn’t know why.
Which of the following sentences is a conclusion that points back to the introduction of Megan’s story?
A. I left school without a backward glance, knowing I’d never have to go back. “Goodbye and good riddance” was all I could say.
B. By my last year of high school, things had started to turn around. But by then, I no longer cared. I knew where I was going and what I was going to be.
C. I learned that being an outsider isn’t necessarily all bad. I’m now stronger for it. I know and like who I am. I’m not sure my tormentors can say the same about themselves.
D. The air smelled like freedom on that last day of school. I emptied my locker, packed up my stuff, and sprinted off toward home on feet that barely touched the hot sidewalk.

Explanation:
Why do public schools, which are secular, emphasize values such as civic responsibility, trustworthiness, fairness, and respect, which
religious teachings also emphasize?
O Public schools are secular in some ways, but not when it comes to their values.
O The schools have appropriated these values without giving religion credit for them.
The terms "secular" and "religious" are nearly synonyms
These values are secular as well; religious and secular value frameworks share some important commonalities.
The correct answer is B. The schools have appropriated these values without giving religion credit for them.
Explanation
In recent years, the secular conception of civic and human values has gained relevance in society. Therefore, these values have been adopted in public schools, which teach them to their students as values of life and society without any religious inclination because these are not exclusive values of it, but are values that concern the society in general and allow communities to be more supportive, respectful, fair, free, among others. Therefore, the correct answer is B. The schools have appropriated these values without giving religion credit for them.

"Should college be free?" Argumentative essay
I need an essay by tomorrow, no links please. Thank you.
Answer:
No,cause people would be taking advantage of it. Some people have admitted that they only go to college for the parties and new experiences, but that is a bad thing. Books would also be free which lets people lose their responsibility over taking care of their stuff. Some parents might say yes that college should be free but students would probably still rely on them.Those are some reasons why college should not be free.
Explanation:
If that does not sound good, feel free to touch it up for yourself. Go get them points mi amigo!
It is widely acknowledged that education is a key factor in both individual and society advancement. However, for many people who want to pursue further education, the rising expense of college has become a substantial barrier.
This has prompted a discussion on whether or not college should be free. The advantages of expanded accessibility, socioeconomic equality, and long-term economic gain will all be highlighted in this essay's arguments in favour of making college tuition free.
Free college tuition would remove financial constraints, allowing a wider range of people to seek higher education. Education shouldn't be reserved for those with the means to pay for it.

To answer this question, you will read two articles. First, read Article 1.
Planning for the construction of O'Hare International Airport began in 1945 when a committee chose Orchard Field as the location of the future airport. In 1955, the airport opened to commercial air traffic and O'Hare International Airport served as a hub for travelers throughout the world.
To respond to the increasing number of passengers, the airport expanded. O'Hare added a fifth runway and opened a terminal for international travel. Passengers could take flights to other countries and throughout the United States. The amount of land used by the airport grew to about 7,200 acres. This expansion included airplane hangars, cargo buildings, and even a post office. Next, there was an expressway built to connect O'Hare International Airport with downtown Chicago. People could travel to and from the airport quickly and easily, making it a desirable location. Finally, the main terminal building and parking lot were completed. These expansions led to a greater number of passengers. In 1962, 10 million passengers traveled through the airport that year alone. O'Hare was officially the world's busiest airport.
O'Hare's growth was accompanied by innovation. In order to increase efficiency, the airport developed a task force that allowed three runways to be used at the same time in 1976. The Passenger Facility Charge, which charged passengers for using the airport, was introduced in 1990. This money was used to improve and modernize the airport. The Airport Transit System was created to help transport passengers between terminals in 1993. In 1996, the O'Hare Noise Compatibility Commission was created to help surrounding neighborhoods deal with aircraft noise. To aid with the O'Hare Modernization Program, a Sustainable Design Manual was created in 2003. This cutting-edge document helped the airport think about the environment during the modernization process. The principles outlined in the manual were later used in a similar document in August 2009 that promoted environmental sustainability at the airport. Over the years, O'Hare International Airport has grown and innovated to manage its expansion.
Read Article 2 and answer the question.
Between O'Hare and Midway International Airports, over one thousand flights depart Chicago every day. When planes take off and land, they create vibrations. These vibrations create noise in Chicago neighborhoods. In the early days of both airports, the city of Chicago realized that aircraft noise was a problem. People were unable to talk on their phones, watch television, or sleep peacefully at night.
In 1996, the O'Hare and Midway Noise Compatibility Commissions were created to help solve the noise problem. The Commissions searched for ways to reduce the effect of aircraft noise on the surrounding neighborhoods. First, pilots and air controllers volunteered to follow the Fly Quiet Program. The program suggested that pilots use runways and flight paths over forests, highways, and industrial areas at night. By avoiding housing areas, pilots and air controllers decreased the noise level of the airplanes in these areas. That way, people would be able to sleep.
Next, the commissions focused on using sound insulation in homes near the airports. If residents lived in an area that experienced a high volume of noise, then they were eligible to have their homes insulated. Residents were given different options. Their homes could be insulated by installing special windows, doors, or air conditioning. Similar steps were also taken to insulate private and public schools in the affected areas.
The continued presence of the O'Hare and Midway Noise Compatibility Commissions is evident today. An Airport Noise Management System uses noise monitors to measure the noise levels in neighborhoods each day. A Community Outreach Vehicle distributes information about aircraft noise. Residents can use the Flight Tracker program. This online program shows images of where planes fly. If there is still a problem with noise, people can call the hotline or complete an online form.
How is the structure of Article 1 different from the structure of Article 2?
Answer:
c. Article 1
uses chronological order to show the events that led to the present airport, while Article 2 uses a problem and solution text structure to show how noise is reduced in neighborhoods around the airports.
