Which BEST describes the underlined words?

Can someone check my grammar plz thing like commas, periods, etc I would highly appreciate it this is an important assignment

IrinaVladis [17]

This may not be the best but here’s how I would do it.

Counterclaim #1:
Some would argue that women should not be allowed to serve combat positions in the United States military because they don't possess the strength requirements
for difficult tasks.

Evidence #1: (This section looks good I think)
According to the text, "The Army's
own research indicates that the vast
majority of women do not possess
the lean mass necessary to meet the
strength requirements for very heavy
and heavy physical tasks"
(Fredenberg 5).

Despite the fact that women do lack the strength requirements for very heavy physical tasks, they should still be allowed to serve combat positions in the United States military. When in groups with men, they raise the team's collective intelligence which improves combat performance in the United States military.

Note: These are just my suggestions. This isn’t final. You may make adjustments accordingly. Hope you find this somewhat helpful. Good luck.

Complete Question:

Read the excerpt from Does My Head Look Big in This? by Randa Abdel-Fattah.

Because it’s pretty hard to walk around with people staring at your "towel-head” and not feel kind of pleased with yourself if you manage to get through the stares and comments with your head held high. That’s when this warm feeling buzzes through you and you smile to yourself, knowing God’s watching you, knowing that He knows you’re trying to be strong and please Him. Like you’re both in on a private joke and something special and warm and extraordinary is happening and nobody else in the world knows about it because it’s your own experience, your own personal friendship with your Creator. I guess when I’m not wearing the hijab I feel like I’m missing out. I feel cheated out of that special bond.

A) “people staring”

B) “head held high”

Make inferences and draw conclusions about the author's purpose in the novel A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Smith wrote A Tree Grows in Brooklyn to inform others about what it was like growing up in a small neighborhood in Brooklyn in the early 1900s. In one chapter, she recalls "with a peculiar tenderness" how Brooklynites celebrated Thanksgiving (Smith 1). Smith's use of cultural terminology, such as "ragamuffin" or "slamming gates," helps the reader better understand the language used by children in the Williamsburg neighborhood at that point in history. Her detailed description of the children's selection of costumes reveals the popular culture of the time and tensions between the poor and rich of the town (1). Smith dwells not only on the cultural details of early Brooklyn, but she also describes emotional experiences of growing up poor. Although the children in Francie's classroom are hungry, they are "too proud to accept charitable food. . . . ," even when that food is about to be thrown away (3). For these children, dignity is more important than satisfying hunger pangs. Smith's careful attention to cultural, historical, and emotional details informs the reader of what it was like to grow up in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, in the early 1900s.

When I graduate from high school, I will be moving to New York City to attend college. compound,complex,simple sentence

Thepotemich [5.8K]

I would believe this is a complex sentence. It contains a dependent and an independent clause to create one full sentence and a conjunctionn cannot combine the two clauses because of the questioning word in the very beginning of the sentence.
