Answer:

Wilbur Wright looked to nature for inspiration in his flight engineering and had done so since he was a child.

Explanation:

The Wright Brothers, the inventor of building the world's first successful airplane, wrote letters to Smithsonian Institution while they were making the human flight possible.

On May 30, 1899, Wilbur Wright wrote the letter to the institution asserting that human flight is possible. He said that he has been observing birds since his childhood and interested in mechanical and human flights. He had made bats of different sizes since childhood especially after reading the stories of Cayley's and Penaud's machines.

Wilbur has looked to birds for the techniques of gymnastics, as they are the world's perfectly trained gymnasts.

Thus the 1899 letter concludes that Wilbur has looked to nature for inspiration and has done so since his childhood.

What makes the evidence effective? Check all of the boxes that apply.
notsponge [240]

<u>Statement:</u>

Fast food kitchens often seem like a scene from Bugsy Malone, a film in which all the actors are children pretending to be adults.

—Fast Food Nation, Eric Schlosser

First and fourth option makes the evidence effective.

  • It helps the reader better visualize just how many young people work in the fast-food industry.
  • It supports the reasoning that the fast-food industry values a younger workforce over adult workers.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Bugsy Malone is a movie which features the children as adult actors and shows the existence of real life kitchen.

With this as an evidence the author tend to explain the situation with the help of this as reference. This would help the readers to visualise the scenario effectively and thereby coming around to a better idea of the fast-food industry.

Moreover, the statement also supports the fact that in most of the fast-food industries, teenagers and students are being employed for lesser wages for the hungry-for-profit industry.

what does Anaya mean when he writes that “a book at once quenches the thirst of the imagination and ignites new fires?”
trasher [3.6K]

Not too sure, but I take it that the book satisfies his need for imagination temporarily, but also awakens a tier of satisfaction to be met, be it for more imagination or not.
