Answer:

brother, he has a lot of quotes, but here are some.

Explanation:

"When you don't talk, there's a lot of stuff that ends up not getting said."

"How could I pretend to be someone else when I was already failing at being the person I already was"

“Everyone I looked at, their whole lives, did exactly what they were supposed to do

without even questioning it, without even wondering if they could

do something different.”

I hate it when people make fun of me and it turns out they're right.”

Select Parameter or Statistic to classify each statement.

Ede4ka [16]

A parameter is a factor that defines a system or a number that defines the scope, limit, and boundary of a particular process;

whilst,

A statistic is a fact or information or inference derived from the data that is obtained by means of a study or a survey.

1) 85% of those SURVEYED were in favor of bike lanes = STATISTIC (This is a statistic because the data obtained (85%) through a survey shows the fact that how many people were in favor of bike lanes and how many people were against (15%)

2) Each member of the soccer team has an average of 2 jerseys = PARAMETER (This is a parameter because of the fact that defines a minimum limit of 2 jerseys held by each member of the soccer team. This could also be a factor in a study as a question like yes or no.)

3) Of the 100 swim teams SURVEYED across America, 23 practice 10 hours a week = STATISTIC (This is a statistic because there is an inference that among the 100 swim teams surveyed 23 teams practice 10 hours per week and this information or inference is obtained from the SURVEY).

4) The golf team's average score is 79 - STATISTIC (This is a statistic because it gives us the inference that the average score is 79 which is obtained by processing the data obtained. It can also be statistic because we need to get an average for finding out mean, median or standard deviation in statistics. So, any calculation involved is a STATISTIC.)

Mere statements are PARAMETERS.

Calculations whatsoever derived from a study or surveys are STATISTICS.

How does poetry fit in with inaugural events?

sammy [17]

Answer:

In the United States and beyond, elections provide regular opportunities for communities and countries to reflect on our histories. From voting to inauguration, each moment we have to voice our hopes for the community acts as powerful way to think about how our individual values impact the future of our governments, cultures, and civilizations.

While art and literature have always played an integral part in shaping the history of our civilization, the inclusion of poetry at the Presidential inauguration is relatively recent. Only four presidents—John F. Kennedy in 1961, Bill Clinton in 1993 and 1997, Barack Obama in 2009 and 2013, and Joe Biden in 2021—have had poets read at their inaugurations. These presidents were known for their appreciation of reading and literature.

Read the presidential inaugural poems, and learn more about these poems and poets:

Presidential Inauguration of Joe Biden:

2021: Amanda Gorman, “The Hill We Climb.”

We’ve seen a force that would shatter our nation rather than share it,

Would destroy our country if it meant delaying democracy.

And this effort very nearly succeeded.

But while democracy can be periodically delayed,

It can never be permanently defeated...

Watch Amanda Gorman read Elizabeth Alexander’s “Praise Song for the Day” as part of Shelter in Poems.

Presidential Inaugurations of Barack Obama:

2013: Richard Blanco, “One Today.”

One sun rose on us today, kindled over our shores,

peeking over the Smokies, greeting the faces

of the Great Lakes, spreading a simple truth

across the Great Plains, then charging across the Rockies...

Read an interview with Richard Blanco about writing the inaugural poem.

2009: Elizabeth Alexander, “Praise Song for the Day.”

Each day we go about our business,

walking past each other, catching each other's

eyes or not, about to speak or speaking...

Read Elizabeth Alexander’s introduction to The Essential Gwendolyn Brooks (Library of America, 2005).

Presidential Inaugurations of Bill Clinton:

1997: Miller Williams, “Of History and Hope.”

We have memorized America,

how it was born and who we have been and where...

write a paragraph of 5 to 7 sentences explaining how fear or betrayal can transform a person. You can use examples from what you

Andru [333]

Fear or betrayal can greatly transform or change a person in many ways. If one has been betrayed in the past, chances are that any situation that makes them subject to that again they would avoid or be skeptical of. There are different types of how fear can affect people because of our fight or flight response. one type of person may decide to fear and flee any similar situations to what startled them initially. Another person might decide to get fight their way out if the situation and face their fears in the future. There's no doubt fear and betrayal changes people, but it depends on their personalities how exactly that change happens
