When a reader decides to read again at the top of the page, this is an example of monitoring and applying fix-up strategies. The correct answer is option D. Fix-up strategies are applied when a reader becomes stuck and sometimes lose track and do not understand the entire thought. These fix-up strategies are then used to repair comprehension.

In Langston Hughes's poem "Justice," what is Justice a symbol of?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

C. the justice system skewed against African Americans.

Explanation:

Here's the poem:

That Justice is a blind goddess

Is a thing to which <u>we black are wise</u>:

Her bandage hides two festering sores

That once perhaps were eyes.

Notice how Hughes writes that "we black are wise." This implies that the justice he speaks of (which is referred to as a "her" throuhgout the poem) is "blind" when it comes to the struggles of African Americans.

Choice A is incorrect because the poem clearly implies that the justice system is biased against blacks.

Choice B is incorrect because the poem calls justice "blind," which implies that she is flawed.

Choice D is incorrect because there is no mention of "human rights" or not caring." Justice is described as being "blind" which does not imply either.

Which sentences contain a restrictive or nonrestrictive relative clause? Check all that apply.

<span>b. I visited the bookstore while you were shopping for a computer.


</span>Example:
"Where they can find food easily"
 is an example of an adverbial clause. It is an adverb of place, answering the question: Where do most animals thrive?


Adjective clauses modify the noun or the pronoun in the sentence's main clause. The first thing to do is to identify the two clauses in the sentence.

First clause: Those may enter the park (the main clause)
Second clause: whose tickets have been punched (the subordinate clause)

Since adjective clauses generally start with a relative pronoun, it is clear that the second clause is the adjective clause. The relative pronoun is "which". Another clue is that adjective clauses are always the subordinate clause. It modifies the pronoun <em>those</em><span>.<span>

IgorLugansk [536]

The correct answer is "the Whiskey Rebellion takes place in western Pennsylvania". After the Revolutionary War, the US accumulated debts amounting to about 54 million US dollars of the time.

How does biology play a role on gender influences?
Rus_ich [418]

Biology does influence gender development. For example, some differences between typical boys and girls can be explained by the effect of genes on sex chromosomes, and by the levels of sex hormones and their effect on the brain during early development (e.g., prenatal exposure to high levels of male-typical hormones).

Write about an experience or event that you always carry with you. Why does this instance stick in your mind?
PtichkaEL [24]
This could be the death of a family member, or a certain academic/athletic achievement. Maybe the day you got a pet or the day that pet died. Maybe when you completed an important goal. If it's an important memory to you, you could use it.
