Read the following text:
Adapted from former US President Jimmy Carter, Foreword to Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge: Seasons of Life and Land, A Photographic Journey by
Subhankar Banerjee. ©2003 by Subhankar Banerjee.

4 Standing on the coastal plain, I was saddened to think of the tragedy that might occur if this great wilderness was consumed by a web of roads and pipelines, drilling rigs and industrial facilities. Such proposed developments would forever destroy the wilderness character of America’s only Arctic Refuge and disturb countless numbers of animals that depend on this northernmost terrestrial ecosystem.

5 The extraordinary wilderness and wildlife values of the Arctic Refuge have long been recognized by both Republican and Democratic presidents. In 1960, President Dwight D. Eisenhower established the original 8.9 million-acre Arctic National Wildlife Range to preserve its unique wildlife, wilderness, and recreational values. Twenty years later, I signed the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act, monumental legislation that safeguarded more than 100 million acres of national parks, refuges, and forests in Alaska. This law specifically created the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, doubled the size of the former range, and restricted development in areas that are clearly incompatible with oil exploration.

6 Since I left office, there have been repeated proposals to open the Arctic Refuge coastal plain to oil drilling. Those attempts have failed because of tremendous opposition by the American people, including the Gwich’in Athabascan Indians of Alaska and Canada, indigenous people whose culture has depended on the Porcupine caribou herd for thousands of years. Having visited many aboriginal peoples around the world, I can empathize with the Gwich’ins’ struggle to safeguard one of their precious human rights.

7 We must look beyond the alleged benefits of a short-term economic gain and focus on what is really at stake. At best, the Arctic Refuge might provide 1 to 2 percent of the oil our country consumes each day. We can easily conserve more than that amount by driving more fuel-efficient vehicles. Instead of tearing open the heart of our greatest refuge, we should use our resources more wisely.

Finally, I did get across. Late one night me and my wife went. I had gone back to the plantation to get her. Mr. Rankins had him a bell by this time, along with the light. We were rowin and rowin. We could see the light and hear that bell, but it seemed we weren't getting any closer. It took forever, it seemed. That was because we were so scared and it was so dark and we knew we could get caught and never get gone. Which statement best describes the speaker's viewpoint of his escape?

its called “The Street That Got Mislaid” – Patrick Waddington

btw search the story on google

Answers

Answer and explanation:

“The Street That Got Mislaid” written by Patrick Waddington is a short story that tells us about Marc Girondin, a city clerk that worked in a planning section at the city hall of Montreal. He was known by people for having a precise map of all the streets in town in his head. He was a peaceful man, minding his own business. One day he discovered a misplaced card of a street called Green Bottle street. It has been more than fifteen years since data about it has been updated. Now he was in dilemma should he notify his boss about it. But, first, he decided to go and visit the street. He found the place easily, on the way in, there was a wooden statue that contained the door. When he entered the street, cobble pavement, neat houses, and lovely gardens with flowers made him feel like he entered a fairytale. Girondin started a conversation with one of the tenants, madam Trusdale, who told him about the previous owner, who decided to bestow them all the houses once he`s dead, and how they were paying taxes until they realized that the town had forgotten about them. Madam Trusdale also told him about a little bit about each one of the tenants and how peacefully they were living. So, Marc Girondin finally asked what was in his mind all the time - to become a part of this little community and move in. As a sign that was his real intention, he tore up the card of the Green Bottle Street, which enabled living anonymously in this little piece of heaven for an unlimited amount of time.

Answers

Answer:

Students will be allowed to eat lunch on the hill outside of the cafeteria if the noise level is kept down, they stay on the hill, and trash is cleaned up afterward. If students can not be noisy, have all their trash picked up afterward, and not enter other buildings during lunch, then they can eat on the hill outside the cafeteria.

Explanation:

Students will be allowed to eat lunch on the hill outside of the cafeteria if the noise level is kept down, they stay on the hill, and trash is cleaned up afterward. If students can not be noisy, have all their trash picked up afterward, and not enter other buildings during lunch, then they can eat on the hill outside the cafeteria .

Answer: Students will be allowed to eat lunch on the hill outside of the cafeteria if the noise level is kept down, they stay on the hill, and trash is cleaned up afterward. If students can not be noisy, have all their trash picked up afterward, and not enter other buildings during lunch, then they can eat on the hill outside the cafeteria.

This is the strongest revision of the sentence because:

It says the students will be able to eat lunch outside on the hill, if the cafeteria noise level is kept down, they stay on the hill, and if the trash is cleaned by students.

So, it is the answer to the question.

What do you know about the play Hamlet?

William Shakespeare wrote the tragedy known simply as Hamlet between the years of 1599 and 1601. It is also known as The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. Shakespeare wrote 29,551 words in it, making it his longest play.

The play, which is set in Denmark, tells the story of Prince Hamlet's efforts to wreak vengeance on his uncle Claudius, who killed Hamlet's father in order to usurp his throne and wed Hamlet's mother.

One of the "most dramatic and important tragedies in the English language," Hamlet has prompted "apparently endless retelling and adaptation by others," according to critics.

Shakespeare's play may have drawn inspiration from a wide range of works, including Elizabethan plays as well as tragedies from ancient Greece.

My parents came here from Colombia during a time of great instability there. Escaping a dire economic situation at home, they moved to New Jersey, where they had friends and family, seeking a better life, and then moved to Boston after I was born. Throughout my childhood I watched my parents try to become legal but to no avail. They lost their money to people they believed to be attorneys, but who ultimately never helped. That meant my childhood was haunted by the fear that they would be deported. If I didn’t see anyone when I walked in the door after school, I panicked. And then one day, my fears were realized. I came home from school to an empty house. Lights were on and dinner had been started, but my family wasn’t there. Neighbors broke the news that my parents had been taken away by immigration officers, and just like that, my stable family life was over. Not a single person at any level of government took any note of me. No one checked to see if I had a place to live or food to eat, and at 14, I found myself basically on my own. While awaiting deportation proceedings, my parents remained in detention near Boston, so I could visit them. They would have liked to fight deportation, but without a lawyer, and with an immigration system that rarely gives judges the discretion to allow families to stay together, they never had a chance. Finally, they agreed for me to continue my education at Boston Arts Academy, a performing arts high school, and the parents of friends graciously took me in. I was lucky to have good friends, but I had a rocky existence. I was always insecure about being a nuisance and losing my invitation to stay. I worked a variety of jobs in retail and at coffee shops all through high school. And, though I was surrounded by people who cared about me, part of me ached with every accomplishment, because my parents weren’t there to share my joy. My family and I worked hard to keep our relationships strong, but too-short phone calls and the annual summer visits I made to Colombia didn’t suffice. They missed many important events in my life, including my singing recitals—they watched my senior recital on a tape I sent them instead of from the audience. And they missed my prom, my college application process and my graduations from high school and college. My story is all too common. Every day, children who are U.S. citizens are separated from their families as a result of immigration policies that need fixing. I consider myself lucky because things turned out better for me than for most, including some of my own family members. When my brother was deported, his daughter was just a toddler. She still had her mother, but in a single-parent household, she faced a lot of challenges. My niece made the wrong friends and bad choices. Today, she is serving time in jail, living the reality that I act out on screen.* I don’t believe her life would have turned out this way if her father and my parents had been here to guide and support her. I realize the issues are complicated. But it’s not just in the interest of immigrants to fix the system: It’s in the interest of all Americans. Children who grow up separated from their families often end up in foster care, or worse, in the juvenile justice system despite having parents who love them and would like to be able to care for them. I don’t believe it reflects our values as a country to separate children and parents in this way. Nor does it reflect our values to hold people in detention without access to good legal representation or a fair shot in a court of law. President Obama has promised to act on providing deportation relief for families across the country, and I would urge him to do so quickly. Keeping families together is a core American value. Congress needs to provide a permanent, fair legislative solution, but in the meantime families are being destroyed every day, and the president should do everything in his power to provide the broadest relief possible now. Not one more family should be separated by deportation. From "My Parents Were Deported" by Diane Guerrero (Copyright © Diane Guerrero, 2014).

Answers

Answer:

If not mistaken, the answer is D.

Widespread ignorance of the poor quality of legal representation available to undocumented immigrants best describes the author's exigence in the passage. Thus, option D is correct.

Who is Barack Obama?

Barack Obama was the first African American President of the United States of America.

In this excerpt that was written by “My Parents Were Deported” by Diane Guerrero, she talks about how the people were being deported and after that, there was no one present to give any help with the legal information also how it was difficult for him to regulate and live a life when the parents were being detained.

By this statement, Obama wanted to say that while waiting for Congress to come up with a durable, equitable compromise solution, families are being decimated every day. There shouldn't be any more family-splitting deportations. Therefore, option D is the correct option.

Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids, and then answer the question. Those who failed to get past both doctors had to undergo a more thorough medical exam. The others moved on to the registration clerk, who questioned them with the aid of an interpreter: What is your name? Your nationality? Your occupation? Can you read and write? Have you ever been in prison? How much money do you have with you? Where are you going? Some immigrants were so flustered that they could not answer. They were allowed to sit and rest and try again. What best paraphrases the central idea of the excerpt? What is your name? What is your job? are examples of questions the immigrants answered. Medical exams were frightening to the newcomers, so they had to sit down. If they had ever been in a prison, the immigrants were not allowed to stay in America.

Answer:

Explanation:

Remember, the emphasis is on what best paraphrases the central idea of the excerpt. Hence our attention should be on what detail from the excerpt is most often stressed or elaborated on.

For example, from the excerpt, we observe an interesting detail that after the immigrants were asked several questions, "Some immigrants were so flustered that they could not answer."  And the word "flustered" connotes one who is agitated or confused likely because of being asked several questions at a time.
