There's no document provided, I'll answer to the best of my knowledge
The abolitionist John Brown attempted to garner attention and do his part to abolish slavery by murdering three individuals who supported slavery, and later tried to host an armed uprising where he would lead slaves to raid a federal army in Harper's Ferry. The attack was unsuccessful, and he was later executed. His actions were radical, and in my opinion very misguided and would only lead to more violence.

That is my take on it, though I recommend you get your own opinion because that is a very opinionated topic.

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Mandy, a true believer in astrology, reads in her horoscope that today is her lucky day. She gets so excited that she spills coffee all over herself, necessitating a change of clothes. As a result, she is late for work and for a very important meeting, which in turn gets her into serious trouble with her boss. That evening, her brother is taken to the emergency room. On her way to visit him, Mandy finds a dime in the hospital parking lot. What does research on the confirmation bias suggest that Mandy will do?

A) Mandy will renounce astrology as completely wrong because of all the horrible things that happened on her "lucky day."

B) Mandy will begin to question her belief in astrology because of all the horrible things that happened on her "lucky day."

C) Mandy will forget finding the dime because of the all the horrible things that happened to her.

D) Mandy will seize on the dime she found as evidence of astrology’s accuracy.

Answer:

D) Mandy will seize on the dime she found as evidence of astrology’s accuracy.

Explanation:

In psychology, confirmation bias refers to our tendency to look for things and signs that will confirm what we already believe in. According to research in this area, we are biased in our beliefs and tend to ignore any information that may challenge them. As a result, our judgment will be degraded. Mandy will most likely, according to confirmation bias, ignore all of the bad things that took place after she read her horoscope. She will pay attention, however, to the one tiny event that somehow confirms her belief. She will seize on the dime she found as evidence of astrology's accuracy.

Learning Task 12: Subject Verb Agreement. In your notebook, write at least two (2) paragraphs to a school head describing a new

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Dear director.

Through this note, I highlight the importance of creating a school tutor club at our school. This club would consist of selecting students who have been notable in all subjects, making them tutors and allowing them to help other students who have difficulties in the subjects tutored by them.

This club could hold meetings once a week, where students could get together to receive help from them and be taught how to do better in their subjects. This could promote the academic quality of our school, allowing students to have higher and higher grades due to tutoring.

Explanation:

In the text above, each verb was underlined, while each subject was placed in bold.

To differentiate these two grammatical classes, it is necessary to know that the verb is any word that indicates an action, a thought or reaction and a phenomenon of nature. The subject, on the other hand, is the term that is doing what the verb indicates, being very well associated with it and showing a type of "protagonist" in the sentence.
