Answer: Combine sentences with coordinating conjunctions.

Explanation: This would help because it would allow the sentences to be longer and would reduce the repetition in the passage. For example:

<h3></h3><h3>"Can you imagine paying a year's salary for a single tulip bulb? During the early 1600s, wealthy investors in Holland did just that during a craze for tulips that later became known as "Tulip Mania". The seemingly unusual flower was introduced to Europe around 1550, inducing interest of itself as the civilians had never seen it before. Compared to the buds native to Europe, the Tulips had more attracting, vibrant colors. Due to this, the price of the blossoming beauties rocketed, attracting the attention of investors over in the ever-flourishing economy of Holland. The interest and demand for tulips led the investors to believe that their popularity would reign much longer than it did. In 1637, the sky-high prices of the alluring florets suddenly crashed. The once famous Tulip bulbs that once held a high price was suddenly dirt cheap, causing the decrease in demand. The <em>Tulip Mania</em> era was over, and the once beloved blossoms were no longer held with such high regard."</h3><h3></h3><h3>reads more fluently than the original text. Hope this helps! ^u^</h3>

Do you think the American Dream can change over time? Why or why not?
valina [46]

It all depends on which American Dream you're talking about.

When I Google the American Dream, a website defines it as "...the belief that anyone, regardless of where they were born or what class they were born into, can attain their own version of success in a society where upward mobility is possible for everyone."

This isn't true. It just isn't.

In a perfect world, the dream itself doesn't change, but the rules we have in place to keep specific groups of people lower than others do. I personally believe it can't. I do think it is achievable without hard work; specifically if you aren't a minority, and born into a rich family. But, this is just my personal opinion.

3. Which line from the passage best explains why George hesitates before going onto the ice.
erica [24]
I believe it’s B. because his father told him not to go onto the ice and George knew what he was doing would probably have a consequence behind it so hesitates contemplating whether or not should he listen to his father or go on the ice and show his friends he’s not scared or whatever. :>
