'As good as dead' means that you are very useless and have no meaning/point in life, so they are saying, there is no difference if you are dead or alive, but its better off if you are dead.

HELPPPPPPPPPPP PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE

I think that in this passage the phrase "pack through" means carrying one's belongings on saddle packs on the horses and leaving the wagons (covered wagons?) behind to travel faster to get to the California gold fields sooner. Mr Johnson decided not to travel this way and instead harnessed his horse to the Frink's wagon and they continued as before. The following excerpt intimates what "pack through" means without actually saying it in those many words. "<span>Mr. Wand and his company have left their wagons here and made pack-saddles, intending to pack their clothing, blankets, provisions, and cooking utensils on their animals, in order to travel faster".</span>

Read the excerpt below from MLK’s “I Have a Dream” speech. In 1:3:1 paragraph format, respond to the following prompt. Has MLK’s
inessss [21]

I believe that MLK's dream has not completely come true in present day America. He states that "my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character". However, in recent news there was a rise of police brutality that is completely on the basis of discrimination. In order for his dream to come true, there should be no possibility of anyone, or his children, being treated differently due to skin color. I am not entirely sure if this discrimination applies to all social classes, but I know that we still have work to do in obtaining this dream.

In a dangerous situation, why do some people take a leadership role instead of waiting for help to arrive, even if they are risk
pochemuha

Human nature often calls for us to run and take shelter whenever there is danger near by. However, sometimes compassion takes over human nature and thus causes people to risk their lives for the well being of others. Humans are more than their nature intends us to be. If everyone was confined to their natural instincts, there would be no stories of people saving the day.
