Answer:

D. The first paragraph

Explanation:

Most of the time, when reading a long passage, you will be able to get the main idea in the first paragraph. This is because the author often uses the first paragraph to present his thesis statement. This is a sentence that tells the reader what it is that the author wants to argue in the essay. By including the main idea in the first paragraph, the author ensures that the reader knows what the passage will talk about and that he will be able to follow it more easily.

What is a good book? old or new
NARA [144]

Answer:

FROM NORVELT TO NOWHERE

Explanation:

It is a thrilling adventure book where after an explosion, a new crime by an old murderer, and the sad passing of the town's founder, twelve-year-old Jack will soon find himself launched on a mission that takes him hundreds of miles away, escorting his slightly mental elderly mentor, Miss Volker, on her relentless pursuit of the oddest of outlaws. But as their trip turns south in more ways than one, it's increasingly clear that the farther from home they travel, the more off-the-wall Jack and Miss Volker's adventure becomes, in From Norvelt to Nowhere, a raucous road novel about roots and revenge, a last chance at love, and the power of a remarkable friendship.

Explain how people's perspectives<br><br> can vary based on several life factors.
Alborosie

Answer:

Perspective is the way in which each person perceives, evaluates or considers an event or its consequences. Thus, the perspective with which a person evaluates an event may be different from the perspective of another person, as the same situation can impact in different ways depending on the person in question.

This is so because the particular experiences of each person influence the way each person perceives the different situations in their life. Thus, for example, if a man was bitten by a dog, he would probably be scared when he saw a loose animal in the street, while another person who has studied veterinary medicine would not be concerned at all about it.

5. What type of story is made up of extended symbolism? A. An allegory B. An anecdote C. A myth D. A speech
Pie
The correct answer should be A. an allegory

Anecdotes are stories that actually happened and are out of the ordinary so they're fun because of that. Myths are stories about how the world was created or how the world works. Speeches can be about anything. Allegories are like long metaphors, like if a metaphor was turned into an entire story and they use heavy symbolism.
