The correct answer is B. People who gather census information

Explanation:

The term "context clues" refers to the information the words that surround a technical or unknown word provide about its meaning. This implies, by understanding the context of a word it is possible to determine the meaning of the unknown word.

In the case presented, in which the unknown word is "Enumerators" the text in which it appears is about Census, which is the process of gathering information about the population of a country or area including their age, education, occupation, etc. Because of this, the text explains the Census Bureau, which is the institution in charge of gathering and processing the data, cannot make changes on the information of the "Enumerators". Considering the unknown word "Enumerator" is related to other such as "Census" and "the data they collected" that work as context clues about the meaning of this word it can be concluded in this context this word means "people who gather census information" because the text explains the data gathered by the enumerators during the census cannot be changed.

Can someone make this easier to say? I'm not sure what it's saying. Just make it a little easy to read please haha.
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

for sure! it's basically saying "kids these days are good at using electronics so using electronics in their learning is an easier way to teach them stuff"

Explanation:

21 Century learners = us, students living and learning in this century

are tech savvy = we've grown up around technology and are usually much better at it than older people (savvy means to be good at something)

their literal and figurative playground = teaching them through things to do with technology, like doing stuff on computers and including electronics in learning

is a way to meet them halfway = sort of compromising with students on how to teach them the content, in this case by using tech in their learning

How does the shift in the physical description of the landlady throughout the passage impact he storys meaning?
ira [324]

Answer:

Throughout the passage, the shift in the physical description of the landlady does impact the story's meaning. At first, when you hear what the landlady looks like, you'll think that she's not at all "wrong in the head", but as you progress through the story, the landlady morphs into a detrimental woman. When Billy sees the landlady at the start, he thinks that she " looked exactly like the mother of one’s best school-friend welcoming one into the house to stay for the Christmas holidays (29)". He basically thinks that she's just a kind woman who won't do him any harm. Later, "he caught a whiff of a peculiar smell that seemed to emanate26 directly from her person. It was not in the least unpleasant, and it reminded him — well, he wasn’t quite sure what it reminded him of. Pickled walnuts? New leather? Or was it the corridors of a hospital? (78)". He thought that she was "dotty", but he didn't care, nor does he really pay any close attention to how she acted or looked. All he thought was since she invited him to a place to stay for a good amount of money, she was welcoming and inviting, therefore, he assumed that she was innocent and not at all "wrong in the head". In the beginning, we all thought that this was going to be an innocent story where Billy enters a house and a landlady allows him to stay there. The landlady would mind her own business and be polite and Billy would be safe and just be there for a tiny bit, all happy and everything would be just fine. But no. As the story reveals more, it gets more twisted and dark. The landlady turns out to be purposefully poisoning Billy with tea and probably stuffing him later. All things will turn for a deadly end
