because they all rushed to California during 1849.

Explanation:

during the California Gold Rush, people moved to California from across the country AND across the world. This movement began in 1849, hence the name "forty-niners"

Which scenarios are examples of students using effective presentation skills in a student council meeting? Select two options.
Maurinko [17]

Nakisha and Samir are making an effective use of presentation skills. Both are defending their ideas and persuading the others to follow them, by showing their knowledge about the topic with examples, and making the other students agree with them by using their ideas as well.

Mark, Casey and Kara are not so effective as they are not approaching the conversation properly, paying close attention to the questions given, or defending their own opinion.

Yo can someone give me some personal narrative writing examples
Phoenix [80]

If you're writing a personal narrative essay, you might want to follow these tips:

- Stick with the main plot of your story

- Add examples and descriptions if possible

- Don't leave out your emotions

- Make it useful; give tips in conclusion

- Make sure it's in a narrative tone

Say if you wanted to write about, "The Time When My First Tooth Fell Out", and decided to stick with it, you may want to start with a scene that the reader can imagine. Or, you may want to start off in a "sophisticated" way. And by that I mean, starting off with such words like: Even though, Just because, and Forth and for most. But, I'll give you an example of a simple way to start of your introductory paragraph.

Example: It was mid-summer, July 23, 2010, and I was more than ready to enjoy my summer with my friends. Julie, my friend since we were in diapers, was having a summer bash in her backyard that day. I was ecstatic! My first summer party as a big kid! I had to get ready within an hour, fix my hair, get my bathing suit, and make sure I had sunscreen. I'm scrambling trying to get things done before we leave, clothes on the floor scattered like wild rats. I'm running faster and faster as every moment passes, then, I fall, hard enough to cause the tectonic plates to shift. My mom rushes in to see if I'm okay, and what the raucous was about. She looked at my face, and her eyes widened as if she saw a ghost. I asked her what was wrong, and she looked at me surprised. I touched my face as she still had the horrified look on hers. I remove my hand from my mouth to later see blood on my palm. I lick around my mouth to only feel a gap where my canine tooth used to be three minutes ago. My mom says, "Oh honey, you lost your first baby teeth." I wasn't so thrilled as she was, I had a summer bash to go to in twenty minutes! And I didn't want my friends to see my missing tooth and laugh at me. So, I hid in my room and told my mom I didn't want to go anymore. She told me it was nonsense and said they'd think I'm cool. I didn't believe her for a moment, but, sooner or later, I did, and decided to go regardless of my missing tooth.

That's a short little narrative you can go by and tweak if you want to use it. Or to make it more relatable to your life story, add some things.

I hope I helped :)

PLZ Hurry i need this for tomorrow!!!

Answer:

1: Anne kept scribbling notes in her WRITING journal.

2: Good WRITING takes a lot of practice, and a lot of editing

Explanation:

Participle is word formed from a verb and used as adjective or noun.

For example

A): In "<em>injured soldier"</em> we have an adjective <em>injured</em>, the word <em>injured</em> came from verb <em>injure</em>; hence it is a participle. However the phrase injured soldier as a whole is a noun.

B): in "<em>good cooking"</em>, <em>cooking</em> is a noun made from a verb <em>cook</em>; hence cooking is a participle.

1: In this sentence “Anne kept scribbling notes in her WRITING journal”, <em>writing</em> is a participle as it made from verb “write” and used as adjective.

2: In the sentence “Good WRITING takes a lot of practice, and a lot of editing” <em>writing</em> is participle as it is made from a verb “write” and used as a noun.

3: In “Tonight, I am going to WRITE a letter to my brother who is in the army” <em>write</em> is verb (not a noun or adjective) and hence it is not a participle.

4: In “Sadie WRITES letters to her brother every week” <em>write</em> is verb (not a noun or adjective) and hence it is not a participle.
