Find three points of "Little Boy Crying" poem and explain these three points briefly. You should tell me what the poem is about.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The poem is about a boy by the name of Steven who became agitated and eventually cried from losing a match in Fortnite. First, he threw his controller at his parent's flat screen TV, obliterating it with full force. Then he screamed erratically at his parents for hindering his concentration when they had not done so. A demon began spawning out of Steven as his screaming elevated to a banshee level and his face reddened. In the midst of rage, he picked up his cat and slammed it on the floor, breaking its neck. He began crying and laughing simultaneously. The parents witnessed this and called the police on him. When they arrived, Steven was arrested without much interrogation. He was put in juvenile detention with multiple pending charges and while he was locked up, his parents decided to disown him. Steven no longer had a home. When he gained knowledge of this, his inner demon formed again and he attacked a guard recklessly. Had the other guards not come in time, he would have been dead. Steven was transferred to a state prison with felony charges and is currently serving 50 years with no bail.

Explanation:

I read the poem.

Explain when you cite information
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A quote or citation is a literal statement made by someone, quoted by someone else. Quoting differs from paraphrasing in that the latter form reflects ideas of others in their own words (the idea is maintained, but the form is different from quoting).  

When citing phrases, your own text should be written in such a way that the quote is seamlessly integrated. If that is not entirely successful without, for example, moving a verb from the quotation or putting it in a different tense, then this operation should be marked by putting the word between square brackets. If something from the quoted part is not quoted, the omission must be marked with an ellipsis: three dots between round brackets.

Which of the following options would be the best hook for an argument in favor of paying college athletes? Question 13 options:
Alecsey [184]

b) The National Collegiate Athletic Association, or NCAA, earned a staggering $1 billion in 2017, and college athletes will never see a penny of that profit.

Option B is the best hook for an argument in favor of paying college athletes. A hook is the first sentence or two of the essay that gets the reader interested in the topic of the essay. In this hook, the author provides startling data to hook the audience. People may want to better understand what the NCAA does with all that money. It's also obvious this hook what the author's stance is on the topic. The use of the word "staggering" and "never" set the tone that author is appalled by this. Option A is too vague. So what if they make a lot of money...good for them. Or the audience might already know it. Why would they then want to read the essay. Option D has a similar problem. The question is a yes or no answer. The audience says no so what then, or even if they say yes. Where does the essay go from there? A hook should entice the audience and make them want more.

Which quote from the novel, Jane Eyre, best represents Charlotte Brontë’s theme of independence?
Nikolay [14]

Hello there!

The question states which quote represents her independence let's analyze each quote.

A)“Habitually obedient to John, I came up to his chair: he spent some three minutes in thrusting out his tongue at me as far as he could without damaging the roots…”    This quote is incorrect because it says she is obedient to John.

B)“You ought to be aware, Miss, that you are under obligations to Mrs. Reed: she keeps you: if she were to turn you off, you would have to go to the poorhouse.”    This quote is incorrect because it says that she is under obligations of Mrs. Reed.

C) “What do I want? A new place, in a new house, amongst new faces, under new circumstances…”     This is correct because she is talking about what she wants.

D)I had had no communication by letter or message with the outer world: school-rules, school-duties, school-habits and notions, and voices, and faces, and phrases, and costumes, and preferences, and antipathies—such was what I knew of existence.     This is incorrect because it says she has no communication with the outside world therefore not independent.

In conclusion the answer is C! Good luck!
