Please Tell me what you think about my essay, please be honest, i really need a good grade on this!
After a long day at school, nothing beats grabbing your electronic device
and playing a video game. At least sixty percent of Americans play video games on a daily basis. Although playing video games can seem as a harmless way to unwind and relax, they have harmful impacts on your physical and mental health.
First of all, violent video games have a bad influence on people. According to Emily Sohn, “Violence is one of the biggest concerns...Some parents and teachers blame school shootings and other aggressive behavior on media violence-as seen in TV programs, movies, and video games.” If children often play video games that are violent, or if children are drawn to violent video games, it may cause them to think that violence is ok. Or if that person gets angry easily, then the anger could turn into or lead to violence. Emily continues to explain that “people who are already aggressive...are more drawn to violent games and TV shows.” Children that are more aggressive and competitive than others tend to like more violent games.
Secondly, playing too many video games per day can lead to lack of sleep. According to the text The Violent Side of Video Games, you could develop “mean world syndrome” If you develop the “mean world syndrome” and it may provoke you to believe the world is a bad place, which could cause you to think you’re unsafe. Emily delineates, “I still have trouble falling asleep if I watch the news on TV or read the newspaper right before going to bed.” In addition, watching something with violence or playing video games with violence right before you go to bed is not a good idea.
Critics argue that video games are good for you, and inspire learning. Although, children shouldn’t be playing video games that teach violence. Children learn this violence, and start doing it, which makes others insecure.
Video games are not beneficial for children or their health. Violent video games cause aggression, unsafety, anxiety, and violence in reality. Children should be limited to the video games they play, and the kind that they play.
Answer:
I think it is great! I like how you used transitional words. I liked that you used evidence. But you need a claim. Like : I plan to prove that video games are harmful to American people. Or something like that. You have a counterclaim which is good but no claim. You also need a thesis. I will give you an outline and see if your essay fits into it. It is what my English teacher gave me to use. You can use it or you don't have to, but I would ask your teacher if you could use it just to be sure.
Explanation:
Good luck!!

What are 3 or more Similes in the story Raymond's run
Answer:
Three similes from the story "Raymond's Run" are:
1. "I'll high-prance down 34th Street like a rodeo pony to keep my knees strong . . ."
2. ". . . but people ain't grateful, so now she hangs out with the new girl Gretchen, and talks about me like a dog . . ."
3. "He looks around the park from Gretchen like a periscope in a submarine movie."
Explanation:
A simile is a figure of speech that compares two different things with the purpose of stating a similarity between them. In that sense, a simile would be similar to a metaphor. The difference is that simile relies on words such as "like" or "as" to make the comparison, while the metaphor does not. For example: My mind is like a bird. → Comparing one's mind to a bird helps convey the sense of freedom. One is free to imagine and think just like a bird is free to fly.
With that in mind, we can see that the three answers above use simile to compare the characters' actions to something that will help convey how those actions are performed. For example, the narrator compares the way her teacher looks around with the way a periscope moves when searching around.
"Raymond's Run" is a short story by Toni Cade Bambara about the narrator, Squeaky, and her brother Raymond, who is a child with special needs.

and
Answer:
"Consequently" and "For This Reason".

A cause and effect text structure is when the text provides information or explains the reason why one thing led to another. The text will include why one thing happens, which consists of the cause and the next will contain the consequence, which is the effect.

Words such as "likewise" and "on the other hand" are used for a compare and contrast struture.
Answer:

In hearts and hands what is the setting and explain why this contributes to the plot
Answer:
The story “Hearts and Hands” reminds us of the old lesson that appearances can be deceptive. In fact, this has been the main point of the story which begins when an elegant-looking young lady named Miss. Fairchild meets by chance her old pal Mr. Easton in a train compartment in the West. Soon after, she discovers that Easton’s right hand is handcuffed to the left hand of another man. At once, she fears that Mr. Easton might have been involved in some criminal activity and so is arrested. Sensing Mr. Easton’s embarrassment, the second man comes to his rescue by explaining that Mr. Easton is a marshal who is taking him to Leavenworth prison as he has got seven years of jail term for counterfeiting. At once, she recovers from the “bewildered horror” with “a deep breath and returning color”. This is the moment Miss Fairchild probably senses how appearances can be deceptive. Interestingly, she didn’t know that it was actually a part of a larger deception. Since then she seems to get going well with Mr. Easton. When Miss. Fairchild tries to get closer with Easton and says that she also likes the West.

How does the author support the claim that ""gracious living had been a long time coming""?
Answer:
Hello. By reading the sentence presented in the question above, we can see that this sentence is a quote from the text "Birth of the Cool" written by Katy Kelly. In this case, the author supports this statement by presenting the various methods used to keep the food fresh.
Explanation:
"Birth of the Cool" is a text that shows how the creation of refrigerators made life easier for people, since it was very difficult to keep food refrigerated and preserved before refrigerators existed. The wait for the creation of refrigerators was very long and people had to develop several techniques and methods to keep food preserved, especially in the summer. These methods were what the author used to justify the phrase "gracious living had been a long time coming," showing that the easy life that refrigerators promote, was not something easy to achieve.
Which word, if it replaced the word "activity" in the sentence above, would CHANGE the meaning of the sentence?
Hello. You did not present the sentence to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
In order for the meaning of the sentence to be changed if the word "activity" is replaced, you should use words that are not synonymous with "activity". Synonyms are words with different spellings, but they keep the same meaning. In this case, it is only possible to modify the meaning of the sentence, replacing "activity" with antonyms such as "inactivity," "inactiveness" and "inaction." Antonyms are words that have completely different meanings.
Tyson mentions the golden record that is attached to the side of Voyager 2. That record includes music, voices, and other sounds that represent Earth and its occupants. Imagine that you are able to choose a sound to add to that record. What sound would it be? Write an argumentative essay in which you state and defend your choice. Follow these steps as you write:
1. Clearly state your position, or claim, in an introductory paragraph. This should include both your choice of a sound and a broad reason for it.
2. In the body of the essay, provide specific reasons for your choice, and support them with evidence from Tyson’s essay, your own observations, or another source.
3. Organize your reasons and evidence logically. Use transitional words and phrases, such as because, instead, and after, to clarify the relationships between your claims, your reasons, and the supporting evidence.
4. Conclude with a strong closing statement that follows from and supports your argument.
5. This essay requires you to think of evidence and reasoning from your own thoughts and experiences. However, you should find relevant evidence and reasoning from sources other than just your own experiences. While writing, take some time to complete online searches as needed to support your thinking. When you finish, reread your essay to revise any ideas. You need only write the first draft, but make sure to do your best with spelling and grammar. Your completed essay should be 2–3 paragraph

Pioneers 10 and 11, which preceded Voyager, both carried small metal plaques identifying their time and place of origin for the benefit of any other spacefarers that might find them in the distant future. With this example before them, NASA placed a more ambitious message aboard Voyager 1 and 2, a kind of time capsule, intended to communicate a story of our world to extraterrestrials. The Voyager message is carried by a phonograph record, a 12-inch gold-plated copper disk containing sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth.
