The old man hung his head for a moment in thought. Then he stood up and stared at me. “Friend,” he said, “I do not like to have

you speak to me in that manner.” I kept still and let him have his say. “I know these Americans are good people, and that is why I have agreed to sell my house to them. But I do not care to be insulted. I have agreed to sell my house and land for twelve hundred dollars and that is the price.”
I argued with him, but it was useless. Finally he signed the deed and took the money but refused to take more than the amount agreed upon. Then he shook hands all around, put on his ragged gloves, took his stick and walked out with the boy behind him.
—“Gentleman of Río en Medio,”

The narrator of "The Man He Killed" seems to believe that many people enlist because
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

They need money to live

Explanation:

From Stanza four of the poem, "the man he killed", when the speaker could not find any reason to have killed the man he went into battle with, he justified himself by saying he enlisted in the army because he could not find any meaningful thing to lay his hands on. He said he joined because he knew nothing else to do and joining the military was a last resort.

"He thought he’d ‘list, perhaps,

Off-hand like — just as I —

Was out of work — had sold his traps —

No other reason why."

7. Which of the factor in the birds does not help them to fly-
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

d) beaks and claws

Explanation:

Birds have many physical attributes that help them fly in the air. They include a lightweight body, streamlined boat shaped body, and wings made of feather to flap through the air.

Though birds' beaks and claws are important factors for survival and catching prey, they are not necessarily the factors which help them fly. However, beaks are considered aerodynamic and hydrodynamic because most of them are coned shaped.

So option D is the correct answer.

What would be the most effective way for Mirai to include this research in her essay? She should quote the first sentence direct
BaLLatris [955]

This question is incomplete because the passage from the source Miral wants to include is missing; here is the passage:

Read the excerpt from a credible source for Mirai's research-based essay on the effects of the declining bee population.

Honeybees play a major role in the pollination of produce sold in the United States. Without the prolific support of honeybees, the nation's agricultural economy will suffer losses as great as those in the bee population.

The correct answer to this question is C. She should quote the second sentence directly, because it establishes important supporting evidence in a unique way.

Explanation:

In general, you can include credible sources by quoting, paraphrasing, or summarizing this. Additionally, it is recommended to paraphrase or summarize the information if the information is general or can be restated without losing its essence. On the opposite, you should quote if the wording is unique, which means using your own words will affect the essence of the information, and if the piece of evidence directly supports the main argument.

According to this, in the source presented it recommended Mirai quotes the second sentence because this directly supports her main argument about the effects of the decline in the bees population. Also, the wording on it is unique and would be difficult to replace. For example, the expression "the nation's agricultural economy will suffer losses as great as those in the bee population" would lose its argumentative strength unique style if it is paraphrased or summarized.
