Answer:
Violet, Peony, "Mamma", and snow sister.
Violet and Peony are the most major characters, as they are why our focus is given to mamma and why snow sister is made. Mamma is only elicited our attention when she is giving a reaction to the children's actions; and our focus is somewhat shifted to her throughout the story. Snow sister is a major player because of the effect she causes on the characters, especially mamma.
Hopes this helps ^^
Read the story Hayden and Henry Go to Fenwick Island:
When Hayden and Henry Holbrook were just 10 months old, their parents enrolled them in swimming lessons at the local pool. By the time they were 10 years old, both boys were excellent swimmers. Hayden was best at the backstroke, Henry at the forward crawl. They were identical twins but they were complete opposites in almost every way. While Hayden liked swimming at the pool where the water was warm and familiar, Henry preferred to swim outdoors. He loved to swim in the pond in their backyard or at the lake where they went to camp each summer. Henry liked to try new things and had recently enrolled in a sea swim race in Delaware, about 3 hours from the boys' home in Elizabethtown, PA.
Hayden and Henry had never been to the ocean before. They had travelled a lot in the Midwest, where their grandparents lived, and to upstate New York in the summertime, but they had never been to the coast. Hayden had learned a lot about the New England coast during his shipwreck phase, when he watched loads of documentaries and read every book in the library on the topic.
"The race is in May, right? According to my research, the temperature of the ocean at the time of year is a chilly 50 degrees," Hayden informed his brother. Henry couldn't be deterred. "Water's water. It's all the same," Henry replied to Hayden's doubts.
Henry trained hard. He swam every morning before school at the community pool since the pond was still frozen over. He knew the ocean would be different, but he was determined to take part in the race. Henry thought he even had a good chance of winning in his age category.
Soon, spring sprung in New England, and the Holbrooks set out for the sea race weekend on Fenwick Island. That evening, the whole family sat on the beach and watched the sunset as the waves rolled in. Hayden regaled everyone with stories of pirate buccaneers and long-lost shipwrecks, but Henry was unusually quiet. When they had walked along the boardwalk earlier, he had seen a sign warning swimmers about the possibility of jellyfish in the water. Henry never had to worry about jellyfish in the pool, pond, or lake. Perhaps water wasn't just water. One of the boys' favorite movies had a scene where the bad guy tried to flee the scene of a crime on a speedboat, only to fall off and get stung repeatedly by jellyfish. Every time they watched it, the brothers laughed and laughed. Henry wasn't laughing now. He couldn't stop thinking about how much it would hurt if he got stung by a jellyfish during the race. He wasn't sure if he wanted to compete anymore.
Hayden soon noticed the look of worry on his brother's face. As they strolled back toward their hotel in the pink twilight, Hayden asked his brother what was on his mind.
"Jellyfish," Henry responded.
Hayden laughed, "Yeah, I was thinking of that scene, too, when we walked past the boat rental place earlier. It cracks me up every time."
"I won't be laughing if I get stung during the race tomorrow," Henry said sharply. Then, looking at his brother, he said more softly, "I'm scared of them. I think I'm going to pull out of the race."
Hayden was surprised to hear his twin say this. Henry had always been the confident one, always up for taking risks. Giving up just wasn't his style. It upset Hayden to see his brother looking so down and upset, and he knew he had to do something to comfort his brother as Henry had done for him so many times before. Like bolts of lightning, facts that Hayden had read about jellyfish began to zigzag through his mind. 'Of course!' he thought.
"Henry, remember how I said that the average water temperature in the Atlantic would be around 50 degrees just now?"
"That's not helpful, Hayden," Henry sighed. "I'm prepared for the cold, just not the possibility of pain."
"No, no, that's not my point," Hayden continued excitedly, "Jellyfish prefer warm waters! It's far too cold for them to be out and about in the ocean right now. The probability that you'll see a jellyfish tomorrow, let alone be stung, is very low," he finished triumphantly.
A smile spread across Henry's face. "That's brilliant news, Hayden! Thanks so much. I can always count on you and your random knowledge to save the day!" he laughed, throwing his arm around his brother's shoulder.
Henry slept like a log that night. The next day, he dove head first into the ocean and swam with all his heart. Just as he had hoped, Henry won his race. When he took the podium to collect his medal, no one was cheering louder than Hayden. He was so happy for his brother and that his words had been so helpful.

Write a short summary that includes the major claims and reasons of Dr. King's argument.
Evaluate the strength of those reasons and evidence.
Was any irrelevant evidence used by Dr. King? If so, what was the impact on you as the listener?
Answer:
Speaking during the march on Washington, D.C. in 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. claims that African Americans have come to the nation's capital to cash "a promissory note," a note that must be honored or there will be no tranquility in America.
Martin Luther King, Jr., is a civil rights legend. In the mid-1950s, Dr. King led the movement to end segregation and counter prejudice in the United States through the means of peaceful protest. His speeches—some of the most iconic of the 20th century—had a profound effect on the national consciousness.

in response of two paragraphs, compare and contrast how the structures used in "The Lottery" and "Rules of the Game" contribute to their meaning. Be sure to use evidence from the text as support in your answer.
Answer:
It is structured along the narrative form of a short story. The most distinctive things are the exposition and the surprise ending. The exposition, from "The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny.
The comparison of the structures in the two texts is that there was the use of a narrative form to tell the story.
What is a Narration?This refers to the storytelling that is done about a particular scenario where the series of events are told.
Hence, we can see that from the complete texts, we can see that the authors of the two books made use of a narrative form and their exposition helped build suspense.

Other people argue that players willingly trade their health for the money and fame that football might bring. They say football players view this as a risk worth taking. However, there would not be any money or fame if people did not watch football. If no one showed up to the stadiums or bought the merchandise, there would be no reason for these young men to play. There would be no reason for them to sacrifice their physical and mental health—and sometimes, their lives—for the sake of a sport.
Paragraph 3 argues that
A
Most football players think that it is worth it to put their health at risk; after all, football players make a lot of money and many become famous.
B
Football players do not get paid nearly enough to suffer such debilitating injuries; if they got paid more, it would offset the danger.
C
Since players get paid so much money to play, they are the ones who decide that it is worth it to risk injuring themselves.
D
Because fans provide the money and fame that lure players into this dangerous sport, fans are responsible for the injuries players suffer.
Out of the choices here, I am thinking it could be either B or D as the answers.

Answer:
the answer would be c

because all of them have an apostrophe in the incorrect spot for example "dresses" is correct but "dress's" is incorrect therefore the answer would be c because C is the only answer that has the apostrophes in the correct spot.

How is Brian showing persistence at
the end of chapter 8? (hatchet)
Answer:
Brian is frustrated—he knows he needs fire—until he sees the golden light of the sun against his hatchet. Gold like fire. He realizes that he can make fire with the hatchet and stone. i'm not sure if this is right though
Explanation:
Answer: Chapter 8 of Hatchet is a hard swing for Brian emotionally. He hits his lowest point but has his biggest triumph, too. Before we look at what happens in Chapter 8 of Hatchet, let's look at where Brian's been.
Brian Robeson is still stranded in the wilderness after the plane carrying him to visit his father crashed. All he has with him is the hatchet, a small ax with a wooden handle, his mother gave him before he left. So far he's found food in the form of raspberries, faced down a bear (rather, ran from it), and built a shelter into a rocky overhang. It's his fourth night in the wilderness, and Brian is starting to feel okay about his chance .

Here is a letter sent by a mother of a soldier.
Dear Soldier,
It's hard to thank someone for giving me the freedom to live the life God has so graciously given to me.
Thank you for everything you do daily to protect this country, and for that I am forever grateful. You have given up so much for this country, and I personally believe that is something that cannot be repaid. Most soldiers I know believe having a free country is payment enough. I think that's what makes you all so great, you give so much and do not expect anything back. I recognize the selflessness you've demonstrated with your willingness to serve our country.
Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. It is no secret that your training, or any part to being a soldier is easy. I always knew it was a lot of work, but I never realized how much it really was until my my son joined the US Army.
Thank you for your bravery, strength, hard work, commitment, dedication and willingness to do the hard things that are required of you day in and day out. You've given up everything to fight for US, that is something I don't take lightly. So, thank you for everything that you do.
God Bless you & may God Bless America,
A PROUD mother of a US Solider
