Excerpt adapted from Telling All Americans’ Stories: Introduction to European Heritage
likoan [24]

Answer:

The author describes how people came from “England,  Ireland, the German and Russian empires, and  Scandinavian countries—to escape famine, political  and economic oppression, or in search for greater  opportunities in America.”

This detail shapes the idea because it lists European  countries that the people came from and  explains several reasons why they left for America.

Explanation:

The above is the best way to organize the sentences to express how the author develops a central idea in the passage.

This is correct because it stated a line from the excerpt that points to the central idea. It was from this line that the idea of the passage can be seen. Also, this line of detail contributes to shaping the idea. Therefore, the above arrangement is correct.

I am Lyosha [343]

Based on the story of "The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus", Faustus signed a contract with Mephistophilis, even though few signs appeared before him that he should not agree with the contract. He chose to be on the side of the devil and did a lot of bad things, without thinking what will be of him after the contract. All what he did make him guilty, and gave him the thought that after all what he did, it is too late for him to be forgiven.

Okay I need someone who is really dedicated, i need to write a character analysis that needs to be 2 paragraphs. I will give you
GuDViN [60]

Ever hear about a girl named Anne Frank? Anne Frank was a girl whose family was a Jew and they had to go into hiding because of the Nazi's trying to kill all of the Jews. Now Anne was a very loud and happy girl. She always knew what to say. She goes through problems while in hiding like Jealously and having Courage.

Anne loved writing in her diary and that is what she did for fun when everyone had to be quiet. She also liked reading. She was then very loud when everyone left the building they were hiding on top of. She never cared about what anyone thought of her when she was loud. She also say what happened in her mind which led to some problems.

Anne may sound perfect but she isn't she thinks that Margot (her sister) is better than her. She wants to fit in with her family but she thinks she is the odd one out of the family. She also thinks that Peter (the son of the other family that's in hiding with the Franks) hates her because she is acting like a child and not acting like an adult Woman. She feels as she doesn't fit in.

Now Anne says many smart remarks in the story of "The Diary of Anne Frank" on thing she says is, "I want to go on living after my death." That quote has been floating around the world as people in many different countries read Anne's Diary and understand the Circumstances that she has to go through. Also she says "Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart." Many people are shocked by this because could Hitler still have a good heart after what he did to all the people during the Holocaust? or Did the Nazi's have a good heart for helping Hitler out and killing innocent people. That statement she says makes people wonder why she said that as they read her diary.  


Hope that helped!
