Imagine you are Kamkwamba, returning home to your family to tell them about your discovery at the library. In 250 words, state the case for constructing a windmill for the family, using evidence from the text to support your claims. Why does a windmill mean "more than just power"? Explain all of the benefits a windmill would bring, as well as the challenges.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

When I read about the windmills, I felt that I could make a difference for my family and free them from the sad and suffering life they were going through. I went further, and considered freeing my entire community, because that was what the mill would represent for us, freedom, in addition to electricity, since we would be free from hunger, thirst and the factors that prevent us from having life to the full.

I ran home and explained to my country how it was possible to create a windmill with what we already have and that would bring us many benefits. I didn't feel their approval, but a strong disbelief, which gave me more willpower to research and make my idea possible. I ignored hunger and difficulties, I studied a lot and using sucara, those of an old tractor and half of a bicycle I managed to create a windmill, which, although it seems rudimentary, worked perfectly.

In the opening of Sword of Summer, Magnus states, “Yeah, I know. You guys are going to read about how I died in agony, and you’re going to be like, “Wow! That sounds cool. Magnus! Can I die in agony too?” How does learning that Magnus dies set the tone for the novel? In what ways is learning this fact about his fate unique?

Answers

Answer:

This makes the reader have a sense of suspense for the novel. The reader is trying to figure out how he dies and what would happen afterwards. Most books don't tell you about the characters fate till the end when you find out for yourself. The author knew that this would stand out to the reader creating a sense of suspense.

A social scientist presents evidence to support his claim about how social media shapes political perceptions among voters.

Answers

Answer:

Social Media can negatively affect a person's way in which they feel about themselves - much less, someone or something else.  Some people believe everything they read and they believe if it is on the internet then it must be true.  Sometimes we try to compare ourselves to what we are reading about.  We wonder if we look like this - we wonder if we should vote like this or that, based on what our friends and family say.  There is so much propaganda and fake news out there, but people really believe it.  Social Media can make you feel dissatisfied with yourself - or make you think that you have to be like others and think like others to be successful.  

Explanation:

People should not always trust the press.  Do not believe everything you read about politics and the world - they are saying what they think they want you to hear.  They are trying to sway you with pretty pictures and good news.  There are a lot of "falsehoods" about the politicians out there on the internet.  I will admit that FB has attempted to get rid of some of the fake news, but in reality, who can you trust.  You cannot trust FB.  They are also going to give to you and your accounts what they want you to see and to think.  Quit being a zombie and think for yourself.  Use empirical evidence.  This evidence - can be verified.

It is published on the internet.

It is trustworthy.

It took a long time to write.

It cites at least one source.

a story about a teenager who improved his grades by listening to classical music while he studied

What is a sign that the source you are reading might be unreliable?(1 point)

It is trying to sell a product.

It includes facts verified by outside sources.

It uses neutral language.

It is created by a professional journalist.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

1) It is trustworthy

If a source is reliable, it means that it does not contain false information, and that if there are opinions in the piece, they are clearly indicated to be opinions rather than disguising opinions as facts.

2) A survey of eight professional athletic organizations

When it comes to an opinion versus a survey, a survey typically collects more diverse and therefore more reliable info. Basketball players and baseball coaches are surely great at their respective sports, but they are not professional, and neither are the physed teachers.

3) A story about a teenager (...)

All of the other choices are studies, surveys, and interviews with professionals, so this single answer choice not including any research is a red flag.

4) It is trying to sell a product

Let's say a snack company is trying to sell their very sugary cookies. They might create an article claiming that these unhealthy snacks are 'good for athletes' and help their performance. These supposed facts cannot be backed up by anyone, nor are they even true! Therefore, any article with a goal to sell a product should not be trusted as unbiased.

The writer in Frankenstein describes his one crewman as being "as silent as a Turk." What literary
device is this?
A. Metaphor
B. Irony
C. Personification
D. Simile

Answers

Simile because they use the words “like” or “as” to compare two things

Answer:

d) simile

Explanation:

a metaphor is comparing two things without using "like" or "as"- this sentence uses the word "as"

irony is when something happens that you do not expect and this doesn't apply to this sentence

personification is giving human characteristics to non-human objects however a crewman is a human

the answer is simile because the author is comparing two things (a crewman and a Turk) USING the word "as"

Read the passage from chapter 7 of Animal Farm.

As Clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with tears. If she could have spoken her thoughts, it would have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race. These scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old Major first stirred them to rebellion. If she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of Major's speech. Instead—she did not know why—they had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes.


Which details best support the idea that the farm is a symbol for Russia under the rule of the Communist Party? Select two options.

A. “as Clover looked down the hillside”
B. “these scenes of terror and slaughter”
C. “if she herself had had any picture of the future”
D. “had protected the lost brood of ducklings”

What is the theme of animal farm?

"The grand theme of Animal Farm has to do with the capacity for ordinary individuals to continue to believe in a revolution that has been utterly betrayed."

The details that best support the idea that the farm is a symbol for Russia under the rule of the Communist Party are “these scenes of terror and slaughter” and “come to a time when no one dared speak his mind” because the Animal Farm satires the communist party of Russia that people severely suffered and betrayed the people who believed in the revolution.
