1.it was a bright sunny day in April,and the clocks were striking thirteen

This is the narrative hook. A narrative hook occurs at the beginning of a passage to get the reader interested in the rest of the story. In this hook, the speaker begins talking about what seems to be a wonderful great day. Then the reader is hit with the fact that the clocks are striking thirteen. This makes it very different than what the reader is used to. While many people use a 24 hour clock instead of a 12 hour clock, it is usually only in digital form. Therefore, the word striking is not used. Striking is used for a digital clock because the hands move and are said to strike numbers. It is rare to find a 24 hour analog clock in our setting.

Help me make a intro AND a thesis about whether or not we should make changes to the human DNA but ONLY to prevent serious disea
VLD [36.1K]

The introduction with the thesis is the following:

Deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA is known to contain genetic information of human growth, performance and reproduction. As a result, one of the most important study fields for scientists has been manipulating DNA to prevent illnesses. Some people often disagree about human beings controlling nature. <u>However, there are several advantages why the study of DNA can imply significant advances to restrain dangerous diseases and improve the lives of human beings.</u>

An opinion essay introduction must include a thesis statement, which is underlined in the example. The thesis statement an idea that you must support with evidence in the next paragraphs, which in this case should consist of advantages of DNA to prevent serious human diseases.

Explain the significance of the March on Washington fight against racism.
diamong [38]

Answer:

The March on Washington helped create a new national understanding of the problems of racial and economic injustice. For one, it brought together demonstrators from around the country to share their respective encounters with labor discrimination and state-sponsored racism.

Explanation:

The March on Washington helped create a new national understanding of the problems of racial and economic injustice. For one, it brought together demonstrators from around the country to share their respective encounters with labor discrimination and state-sponsored racism. With activists from New York City, the Mississippi Delta, or Cambridge, Md., all describing their various encounters with police brutality, labor discrimination, or housing deterioration, it became very difficult to cast racial segregation as an exclusively Southern problem.

Through the mass participation of organized labor, students, religious leaders, and un-unionized domestic workers, the march also re-articulated for national and international audiences the extent to which racism and economic exploitation remained intertwined. In a planning document co-authored by Bayard Rustin, the march's chief organizers explained that, "integration in the fields of education, housing, transportation, and public accommodations will be of limited extent and duration so long as fundamental economic inequality along racial lines persists." The ability of over 200,000 marchers to organizer under such a message—peacefully and with such forceful spokespeople as Martin Luther King, Jr.—forced party politicians and more moderate political operators to respect the ability of the American Left to make clearly stated demands and generate mass support. In addition, the march helped to provide local activists with the moral authority to push back against less progressive forces in their respective home states, making 1963 a critical year, and the march itself a critical event in the transformation of local political regimes around the country.

A essay about why you shouldn't go to school on a snow day​
andrew11 [14]

Answer: Mention the stress of bad weather (snow) and how people react to it. During snow days, traffic will be worse and much more dangerous than normal days. If you went to school on a snow day, it is a possibility that the snow could become even worse later on and cause problems, making the students stay at school longer. Also, students will feel much safer at home.
