These children are facing threats similar to the forceful conscription of child soldiers by warlords in Sudan or during the civi

l war in Bosnia. Being forced to sell drugs by narcos is no different from being forced into military service.
Read the excerpt from Enrique’s Journey.

The MS gangsters decide to retaliate and throw the gangster off the train. Enrique refuses to participate, creating a rift. "If you are MS, you have to kill 18th Streeters. And if you are 18th Street, you must kill MS. I wasn't like that," Enrique says.

After the fight with his friends, halfway through Chiapas, the gang members stop riding with Enrique. That night, without their protection, the six men beat him on top of the train.

AveGali [126]
The barber Ivan Jakovlevitch finds Major Kovaloff's nose in his bread. It happens all of a sudden, without any introduction, on a usual morning. What makes this occurrence even weirder is the fact that he recognizes the nose, as if all the noses in this world aren't similar, and instantly starts quarrelling with his wife, who accuses him of having chopped off a customer's nose.

Which best explains London’s purpose for comparing the consequences of stealing for a man and for a husky?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Not sure but can narrow it down

Explanation:

I don't have enough info to be sure about the answer. I don't know if there is an article or passage to read. If there is, please upload it so I can help you further. I think the answer should be either the first choice or the last choice. If you want to persuade readers that huskies sometimes steal food from humans, in order to compare the consequences, it could be to open up someone's eyes as to what they are doing is wrong. It would be like asking a thief, how would you feel if a husky snatched your filet mignon off of your plate? They would hopefully see that it wouldn't feel good, therefore they shouldn't steal because it will hurt someone else.

The option that says they want to persuade readers that humans and huskies are treated as equals, in my opinion, means that if we would give consequences to a dog such as scolding him, a human should also receive some sort of consequence.

What is unique about Kurt Wenner's artwork? Explain linear perspective, interposition, and texture gradient. How did Wenner use
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kurt Wenner's artwork is very unique for many reasons. He creates artwork with optical illusions that allow them to seem as though they are part of our own 3D world. Wenner accomplishes this by using many techniques such as linear perspective, meaning that depending where the person was viewing the painting it would seem different, but if they viewed from a specific point it would appear as though it was in our 3D would due to the elongated style of painting. Another technique that Wenner uses is interpositioning, he places objects in the painting strategically in order to make them appear to have depth. All of this coupled with texture gradient which makes objects look incredibly detailed and realistic makes the paintings come to life.
