From Message Regarding Labor Legislation (March 25, 1908)
by Theodore Roosevelt
I call your attention to certain measures as to which I think there should be action by the Congress before the close of the present session. There is ample time for their consideration. As regards most if not all of the matters, bills have been introduced into one or the other of the two Houses, and it is not too much to hope that action will be taken one way or the other on these bills at the present session. In my message at the opening of the present session, and, indeed, in various messages to previous Congresses, I have repeatedly suggested action on most of these measures.
Child labor should be prohibited throughout the Nation. At least a model child-labor bill should be passed for the District of Columbia. It is unfortunate that in the one place solely dependent upon Congress for its legislation there should be no law whatever to protect children by forbidding or regulating their labor.
I renew my recommendation for the immediate reenactment of an employers' liability law, drawn to conform to the recent decision of the Supreme Court. Within the limits indicated by the court, the law should be made through and comprehensive, and the protection it affords should embrace every class of employee to which the power of the Congress can extend.
In addition to a liability law protecting the employees of common carriers, the Government should show its good faith by enacting a further law giving compensation to its own employees for injury or death incurred1 in its service. It is a reproach to us as a Nation that in both Federal and State legislation we have afforded less protection to public and private employees than any other industrial country of the world.
I also urge that action be taken along the line of the recommendations I have already made concerning injunctions2 in labor disputes. No temporary restraining order should be issued by any court without notice; and the petition for a permanent injunction upon which such temporary restraining order has been issued should be heard by the court issuing the same within a reasonable time—say, not to exceed a week or thereabouts from the date when the order was issued.
1. to bring on oneself
2. bans

Select the correct answer.
How does Roosevelt support his position that employees should receive compensations in case of an injury or death in paragraph 4?
A.
He uses factual information.
B.
He cites a government authority.
C.
He offers a counterexample.
D.
He appeals to the audience's emotions.

B) He cites a government authority.Please help. Memories of a Memory
Have you ever witnessed something amazing, shocking or surprising and found when describing the event that your story seems to change the more you tell it? Have you ever experienced a time when you couldn't really describe something you saw in a way that others could understand? If so, you may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials. New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things.
First, memory is vague. Imagine your room at home or a classroom you see every day. Most likely, you could describe the room very generally. You could name the color of the walls, the floors, the decorations. But the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. Memory tends to save a blurry image of what we have seen rather than specific details. So when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall when faced with several tall people. There are lots of different kinds of "tall."
Second, memory uses general knowledge to fill in gaps. Our brains reconstruct events and scenes when we remember something. To do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. For example, one day at a library you go to quite frequently, you witness an argument between a library patron and one of the librarians. Later, when telling a friend about the event, your brain may remember a familiar librarian behind the desk rather than the actual participant simply because it is recreating a familiar scene. In effect, your brain is combining memories to help you tell the story.
Third, your memory changes over time. It also changes the more you retell the story. Documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. Research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is. You may have noticed this yourself. The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add, or what your brain wants to add, to the account. You may also notice that you drop certain details from previous tellings of the story.
With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. Did you really break your mother's favorite vase when you were three? Was that really your father throwing rocks into the river with you when you were seven? The human brain may be quite remarkable indeed. When it comes to memory, however, we may want to start carrying video cameras if we want to record the true picture.
Which phrase from the text most clearly explains the main idea of the second paragraph?
A. Memory is vague
B. Imagine your room at home
C. Rather than specific details
D. Her brain may recall
Answer:
A. Memory is vague

Understanding self and others
Explanation:
Liz damages Nicole's cherished possessions because she does not treat them with respect. Rather than telling Nicole the truth and giving her the opportunity to repair or salvage the damaged tea set, Liz lies to Nicole and discards her heirlooms, incorrectly believing that a more expensive tea set is better. When Liz tries to give Nicole the new tea set Nicole didn't accept it. Liz then thought Nicole was being ungrateful. However for Nicole, the real value of the tea set was the history attached to it not its material worth. Not only did Liz not understand Nicole she didn't understand herself because she doesn't understand how rude and disrespectful she's really being. She thinks Nicole is being disrespectful but she's the disrespectful one by not telling Nicole the truth and ruining her possessions.
Lam argues that Americans' increasing awareness of the harmful effects of excessive consumption and waste production is cause for hope and celebration
Question:
Lam argues that Americans' increasing awareness of the harmful effects of excessive consumption and waste production is cause for hope and celebration. True or False?
Answer:
The assertion above is False
Explanation:
What Andrew Lam (that Author) is trying to say is that Americans still want to eat their cake and have it as far as waste and consumption is concerned.
He lays his argument on the background that he and his family once fed off food that was condemned to be wasted by supermarkets.
According to Lam, the consumerism is still a very strong American habit.

For the first one I would put strong disagree.
Just because it isn't real, doesn't mean nothing can be learned. Many works of science fiction pose very important moral and ethical questions. Yeah, you can't learn anything scientificaly. But (and I'm sorry if you've never seen this) if you look at the show Stranger Things for example, it poses the question about the ethics of human experimentation. You 100% can learn from sci-fi, maybe just not in a scientific way.
For the second one I would put disagree.
Clearly there are more important things in life. Basically, you aren't the main character. Don't act like it and you will be happy.
For the third one I would put agree (?) This is a really complex question
There are things we learn from the people around us. A good example of this would be racism. You aren't born being racist. It's something you are taught to believe is true. And then there is the other part of the question. If you are being a massive j,erk , the world is going to throw that garbage back at you. If you are taught that you are less, or not as good as other people you will begin to believe it.
I don't know if I can help you with the fourth one.
That question is super layered. So, whatever you feel the answer is, just go for it.
The next 5 are all yes.
It is human to feel. You aren't a bad or weak person for expressing you feelings. The next 4 all come down to moral obligation and human decency. You as a human NEED to treat people will the same amount of dignity you want to be treated with.
The one about isolating yourself would be agree.
Refusing to face your problems won't make them go away. If anything it gives your issues time to fester.
And the last one is 100% up to you, but people don't really realize that the movie version of the monster, and the book version of the monster are different.
I know this was a bit vague, but I hope it helps you with your assignment.
Based on the text,tell your observations about the characters.
Mother/Writer
Son/Teenager
Answer:
Mother/Writer:
1. Disturbed over her son's new development at the age of thirteen.
2. Endeavored to punish her son when he misbehaves.
Son/Teenager:
1. Stubborn and disobedient to the mother
2. Lazy and dirty
3. Ready to withstand his mother
Explanation:
The above are my observations of the mother and son.
We see that the mother was not happy with who her son became. She experienced tough time in the hands of her thirteen years old son. The son, on the hand was disobedient and defiant. He was also lazy and unkempt. He was a son that was almost ready to withstand his mother. Whenever the mother punishes him for his misbehaviors, he feels like revenging the mother.
According to the reading of the text, we can describe the teenager as stubborn and rebellious, while his mother can be described as nervous and confused.
What is the relationship between mother and child?It's a negative relationship.It is a relationship of inequality.It is a relationship of misunderstanding.In the text, we can see that the teenager is rebellious, disobedient, and stubborn, while the mother is nervous and confused about this behavior. Both do not understand each other and do not try to understand the reasons for each to act the way they do, which causes fights and misunderstandings between them.

The text discusses the plight of the Irish immigrants in the United States in the late 1800s, when vicious, racially motivated attacks were directed toward the Irish populations. In 2014, there was a series of angry demonstrations in Waterford, a town in Ireland, directed against the Roma, a people who have been the subject of attack for hundreds of years. The Roma are sometimes called Gypsies, now a pejorative term. The irony of the attacks on the Roma in Waterford is that they reflect the same kind of __________ as was directed against the Irish a hundred years ago.
Answer: racism
Explanation:
Racism simply refers to the oppression and the marginalization and/or oppression of people based on their color whereby the whites are privileged at the expense of other races.
In late 1800s, there was racism against the Irish in the United States. In 2014, there was an attack on the Romans by the Irish. This shows that racism just like what happened to the Irish.
