Answer:

Imagine seeing the Sun shining for day and night! Midnight Sun is a real thing; the scientific term is Polar Day. It is the Sun when seen at midnight. Many Alaskans can see it regularly during the summer months around the Summer Solstice in June.

The Sun does not set for over 80 days at a time in Barrow, Alaska. If the weather is fair, people can see the sun for a full 24 hours. Many tourists travel to Alaska to view the Midnight Sun. Although many people find it interesting, some local people do not enjoy the summer days with long daylight hours.

Explanation: The report needs serious reorganization. It is unclear what the numbers are supposed to mean-- maybe the kind of correction needed, so I'll try to go by the numbers.

1. Do not capitalize 'thing.'

2. delete 'for them.'

3. If you are explaining Midnight Sun, define the event first then tell when it happens.

4. This sentence fragment needs to be connected to another sentence.

5. Avoid saying 'is seen' (passive voice) again. Rewrite in active voice. "People can see . . ."

6. This is a good introductory "hook." Move to the beginning of the report.

7. Connect this information to another sentence (3) where it makes sense.

8. Correct 'so' to the actual number of days found in research.

9. This is a fragment and repetitious. Eliminate it.

10.  Capitalize 'It' and move the sentence. This belongs in the first paragraph.

11. Be consistent about capitalizing 'Midnight Sun.' Add a period.

12. Rewrite to make sense. Avoid sweeping generalities and absolutes (never).

13. This subordinate clause must be connected to another. It makes a good transition between the information about the tourists and the statement about the local people.

When doing a research on your a topic , when you find out you have too much information for the three page essay what do you do?
Nina [5.8K]

That's an enviable position to be in.

The best thing to do is limit your topic sentence so you can cut some of the material out of the essay.

I don't remember who said it, but there was a film director who commented once that the best film was on the floor. He meant that what he cut out of the film was better than what he released.

You could also hand in more than was asked for, but it had better have been good. In general teachers don't like that because it is not handled well. Sometimes too much material is not better than not enough.

baherus [9]

Answer:

She looks around at all of the people. The men look scary and so do some of the women. She can't see her mom anywhere.

"Mommy?" the little girl calls out. She looks around and listens for a response. Nothing comes. "Mom? Where are you?"

At this people are looking around and asking who this little girl's mom is. The little girl starts crying. She can't see over anyone to look for her mom.

"Mom!" She says. She feels someone lifting her a man's voice answers.

"No, I'm not your mom, but you can sit on my shoulders. This way your mom can see you easier and you can keep an eye out for her." He was holding a little boy's hand and looking down at him.

"Is that your son?" The little girl asked.

"Yes it is." He said smiling.

A voice from the crowd called out.

"ROSIE? ROSIE WHERE ARE YOU? HAS ANYBODY SEEN MY BABY?" A crying mother was running down the aisle looking for the girl.

"Mom!" Rosie yelled, waving from the man's shoulders.

The man put her down into her mom's arms as he was being praised and thanked by the mother.

"Ma'am it's just being a good person. I'm glad you found her." He smiles at the mother then crouched down to Rosie, "Now, make sure you hold your Mommy's hand really tight so you don't lose her again, okay?" The little girl nodded and hugged him.

The little girl held her mother's hand tight as they got off of the bus and walked away.

Identify sentence as simple, compound, complex, or compound complex
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Compound sentence.

Explanation:

A compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses (with no dependent ones; if there is a dependent clause included, then it is a compound-complex sentence). There are two independent clauses in the sentence above: <em> Its proprietor, Roderick usher, had been one of my boon companions in boyhood </em>AND <em>but many years had elapsed since our last meeting.</em>

There are no dependent clauses here - both clauses are independent and can exist on their own.
