<span>The Immigration Act of 1965 ended the earlier quota system based on natural origin. In the earlier quota system, each nationality was assigned a quota or a maximum number of people of a particular nationality allowed into the USA. The new Immigration Act specified a new policy which was based on reuniting immigrant families and inviting skilled labor to the United States of America. This changed the demographics of the population as many of the new immigrants came from countries in Asia, Africa, and South America. </span>

Every morning, he trains with Kwame and Enzo.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Pronouns are the words used in the place of nouns to avoid repeating the word in a sentence.

For instance, if I am talking about my friend "Lara", and telling about.

  "Lara is a tall girl. Lara have a blonde hair. Lara loves reading books."

So, to avoid the repetition of the noun, we use pronouns like "she" or "her".

Lara is a tall girl. She have a blonde hair. She loves reading books."

In the given sentence, the nouns are "Kwame" and "Enzo".

The correct pronoun to replace this is option B: Them.

<u>"Them"</u> is used to represent the group of people that have experienced the action described by the verb in the sentence. The action described in the sentence is "train".

So, the correct option is B.

1. In Chapter 1 of The Blind Side, what is the significance of former football player Lawrence Taylor both to the title itself a
sveta [45]

Answer:

Lawrence Taylor's act of successfully and painfully sacking Joe Theismann led to a new structure and pattern/ concept of hiring stronger, bulkier bigger linemen to see to the blindside of the quarterback.

The "blindside" in football is the 'unnoticed' side of a player's eyesight view, which is the left side for a right-handed quarterback and right for a left-handed quarterback. This area is to be protected by the linemen while the quarterback attempts to throw the ball.

Explanation:

Michael Lewis's book "The Blind Side," tells the true story of impoverished Michael Oher and his rise to becoming one of the most wanted linemen in league history. This book also became an Oscar award movie and led to a massive change in the way football players are recruited, especially the offensive linemen position.

Chapter 1 of the book focuses on the game of football between the New York Giants and the Washington Redskins. And in this game, Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor sacked Redskins' quarterback Joe Theismann, breaking his bones so much that his career in football was destroyed. And with numerous instances of Taylor's sacking of numerous other players, the need to rethink the role of the linemen who are on the blind side of the player began to emerge. Taylor, thus, led to the new perspective of coaches and teams hiring stronger and bulkier offensive linemen.

The "blind side" in the game of football is the left side of a right-handed quarterback's (or vice versa) which is not visible to them when he turns to throw the ball. It is here that the linemen have the important duty of making sure the quarterback is safe from any 'attack' or tackling.

Dafna1 [17]

      The author word choice of using words like ardour and avidity made it clear that the gentleman got very much pleasure reading based on the definitions of the two words. In fact, it's not a great stretch to say he had an addiction since it got in the way of his basic needs which is what the first sentence was basically shouting at the reader. My interpretation is that the man was to much in his thoughts to take care of himself. From that I concluded that him trying to understand the absolute meaning of Don Belianis broke his fragile state; the only thing that keep the gentleman going was his joyful understanding of complex books, but he couldn't understand a author of a great book's writing.
