Answer:
B The narrator is reliable because he describes how much he loved animals when he was a young man.
Answer:
Explanation:
A good teacher always works hard at being a good student. The admiration shown for a student's skill is genuine if it is genuine. Make sure that education is a two way street.
A good student always has respect for the subject matter he is studying even if he is not particularly good at it. He/she knows that maybe he or she can't do it, but that does not mean it is useless, or to be despised. Respect everything you are exposed to; sometimes the person who proposed the idea took a lifetime to be able to write the conclusions to what he found.
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. The word in bold is as follows:
That is my purpose, upon the next meeting of Congress to again recommend the adoption of a practical measure tendering pecuniary aid to the free acceptance or rejection of all slave States, so called, the people whereof may not then be in rebellion against the United States...
Answer:
The meaning of the word in bold is:
A. Financial.
Explanation:
The word "pecuniary" is used to refer to anything related to or consisting of money. For instance, if you are given a pecuniary gift, that means you are given money. In the excerpt above, President Lincoln states he is going to recommend a financial support (pecuniary aid) to certain states in order to prevent their rebellion against the United States as well as encourage the abolition of slavery.
Answer:
A) Those opposed to the idea of composting say it's very messy, but a lot of the food and trash gets thrown on the floor and the ground anyway, so wouldn't composting be a better idea?
Explanation:
Claims are basically arguments. Counterclaims are counter-arguments. If you make a claim, then the counterclaim is the opposition of your claim.
To find the answer that most clearly connects the claim to the counterclaim, you must see which one acknowledges each claim well. It has to talk about how the cafeteria should start composting and also how composting is too messy.
<em>A:</em> This answer talks about how composting can be too messy, but food and trash already gets on the ground, so composting should still happen. It talks about how composting is messy and also starting to compost.
B: This does talk about the claim and counterclaim, but not clearly enough on the claim that the cafeteria should start composting. It doesn't exactly say that the cafeteria should start composting. It just mainly acknowledges the counterclaim.
C: This talks about the claim but not the counterclaim. It does not talk about how composting is messy.
D: This talks about the counterclaim but not the claim. It just talks about how composting is messy and doesn't mention that the cafeteria should start composting.
So, A is the only answer that most clearly connects and acknowledges both the claim -the cafeteria should start composting- and the counterclaim- composting is too messy.
