Answer and Explanation:
This question is about "The Veldt".
Through this story Bradbury wants to show readers the danger that exists in becoming too dependent on technology and how it can destroy the family unit, provoke addictions and promote destruction. In other words, he wants to convey the message that technology should be admired in moderation, without destroying our humanity, independence and the interpersonal relationships we have.

made free laborers hopeful they will no longer be beaten
Answer: replaced hope with the threat of violence

Is the following an example of ethos, logos, or pathos?
Because you deserve it.
pls explain thanks.
Answer:
pathos
Explanation:
the answer is pathos because it is an appeal to emotion. Using the process of elimination we can find that it isn't logos (facts/stats/etc), isn't ethos (ethics/credibility/etc), and fits most comfortably under the pathos umbrella, making the audience feel emotions like being validated, and think something like "you know what, I do deserve it"

What do it means to be anti-racist and why is it important
Answer:
Anti-racism is a focus on transforming the unequal social and workplace relations that shape our interactions between black, Asian and other ethnic minorities and white people. Anti-racism is the change that makes these experiences and interactions equal or egalitarian. Anti-racism is a change in our perspective. It is understanding all that has gone before us, the impact of white supremacy and its impact on how we think, act and engage with different races,
Plz mark me brainlist
Answer:
“One who is supporting an antiracist policy through their actions or expressing an antiracist idea.” Anti-racism is a focus on transforming the unequal social and workplace relations that shape our interactions between black, Asian and other ethnic minorities and white people. Anti-racism is the change that makes these experiences and interactions equal or egalitarian. Anti-racism is a change in our perspective. It is understanding all that has gone before us, the impact of white supremacy and its impact on how we think, act and engage with different races. It is important because No one is born racist or anti-racist; these result from the choices we make. Being antiracist results from a conscious decision to make frequent, consistent, equitable choices daily. These choices require ongoing self-awareness and self-reflection as we move through life. In the absence of making anti-racist choices, we (un)consciously uphold aspects of white supremacy, white-dominant culture, and unequal institutions and society. Being racist or anti-racist is not about who you are; it is about what you do.

Read the paragraph from “Rivers and Stories,” Part 1.
It’s also a fact of the twentieth century that as a mode of travel, for commerce and pleasure, rivers have been largely displaced by highways, railways, and air travel. A hundred and fifty years ago the epic stories of engineering had to do with canal building, connecting one river system or one sea with another: Panama and Suez. The locks of the Erie Canal and the extensive lock system of English rivers belong now to a quaint and minor tourism. The stories of the twentieth century have had to do with massive dams, with nationalism and economic development and the prestige of massive dams. Rivers now supply 20 percent of the world’s electrical power, most of it generated by large, ecologically destructive, often culturally destructive, dams. The still-to-be-completed Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze is only the latest in a series of Faustian bargains technological culture has struck with the rivers of the earth.
What is the author’s perspective in this paragraph?
1. Tourism is helping to revive the legends associated with rivers.
2. Rivers are still the best way to transport people and products from one place to another.
3. Technological advancements have strengthened the ways people view rivers.
4. Human activity has changed the purpose of rivers for the worse.

Kate uses 8.1 pints of white paint and blue paint to paint her bedroom walls. 1 4 of this amount is white paint, and the rest is blue paint. How many pints of blue paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls?
Answer: 6.075 pints of blue paint
Explanation:
Amount of white paint and blue paint used by Late to paint her bedroom walls = 8.1 pints
Fraction of white paint = 1/4
Fraction of blue paint = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4
The amount of blue paint used = 3/4 × 8.1
= 0.75 × 8.16
= 6.075 pints of blue paint

Which detail best shapes the idea that people become dishonest when communicating with others?
excerpt from Friendship
by Ralph Waldo Emerson
There are two elements that go to the composition of friendship, each so sovereign, that I can detect no superiority in either, no reason why
either should be first named. One is Truth. A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud. I am arrived at last in
the presence of a man so real and equal that I may drop even those undermost garments of dissimulation, courtesy, and second thought, which
men never put off, and may deal with him with the simplicity and wholeness, with which one chemical atom meets another. Sincerity is the
luxury allowed, but diadems and authority, only to the highest rank, that being permitted to speak truth as having none above it to court or
conform unto. Every man alone is sincere. At the entrance of a second person, hypocrisy begins. We parry and fend the approach of our fellow-
man by compliments, by gossip, by amusements, by affairs. We cover up our thought from him under a hundred folds. I knew man who, under
a certain religious frenzy, cast off this drapery, and omitting all compliments and commonplace, spoke to the conscience of every person he
encountered, and that with great insight and beauty.
Answer:
At the entrance of a second person, hypocrisy begins.

Why do the Shark Tank investors decline Mo’s deal? Support your answer with evidence from the text that is either directly stated or implied.
The Text:
By the time I was twelve, I was selling over $1,000 in bow ties annually. That’s when I got an email from the producers of Shark Tank, a show that gives entrepreneurs the chance to present their companies in front of a panel of investors. At first, my mom turned down the offer—she didn’t know what the show was. But when we started doing research and kept in contact with the producers, she agreed to let me fly to California to film. I decided to ask the investors for $50,000 for a fifteen-percent stake in my company. For months, I recited lines, practicing in front of a camera, my parents and occasionally my teddy bears. Despite my preparation, when the day finally came, I was terrified. Walking down the blue-lit hallway, I gripped my mom’s hand so tightly that five years later, she still jokes that I cut off her circulation. When the producers cued me to begin, my brain went empty and the words I had practiced fell away. After a deep breath, I somehow gathered myself and recited my pitch. But none of the sharks wanted to take the deal I’d offered. They told us we didn’t need their help, that we were growing at the right speed and should keep the company’s ownership for ourselves. One investor, Kevin, offered to contribute to my business if I gave him three dollars for every tie I sold for the life of the company, but all of the other sharks told me not to take the deal. I declined, leaving the stage with no deal, but with the promise of a mentorship from another investor, Daymond John. As I walked backstage, my eyes filled with tears and I started sobbing. My goal for months had been to leave with a deal, and I had failed. The moment when I messed up my pitch replayed in my head. But as time passed, I realized that the sharks had actually given me a gift.
Answer:
Plz mark me Brainliest.
Explanation:
The Shark Tank investors decline Mo's deal because they think that they didn't need his help, as stated in the text, "But none of the sharks wanted to take the deal I’d offered. They told us we didn’t need their help, that we were growing at the right speed and should keep the company’s ownership for ourselves."
9. According to "Zoo" and "The Blind Men and the Elephant," what role does perspective or point of view play in understanding a situation? Write an extended response that analyzes how this idea is developed through characters, setting, and plot in both the story and the poem. Cite evidence from both texts to support your response. Be sure to observe the conventions of standard English.
Answer:
“Zoo” tells the story of Teacher Hugo’s Interplanetary Zoo coming to the City of Chicago. Each year, the zoo brings intriguing animals from outsider lands for the individuals on soil to see. The individuals energetically pay the charge to see the creatures from a far off arrive and wonder at their modern and intriguing highlights. When the teacher brings the amazing horse-spider of Kaan, the individuals run to the display and clamor to share what they’ve seen with family and friends. The content states, “And the swarms gradually filled by, stunned and interested by these interesting animals that looked like steeds, but ran up the dividers of their cages like creepy crawlies. ‘This is certainly worth a dollar,’ one man commented. ‘I am going domestic to tell my wife.’” The man’s responses to the horse insects appear that he is captivated and fascinated by the Kaan horse-spider since it is not at all like anything that he has ever seen on Soil some time recently. Within the brief story, “Zoo” and the sonnet “The Daze Men and the Elephant,” the creators illustrate.
