Poor Living Conditions Affects Children While most people live their day to day life, there are some children living in poverty. Living in these types of living conditions can influence the mental health of a child. Children living in poor quality environments can be a lasting effect on their life. Adults are often affected by poor living conditions because of the financial strain on them; not being able to provide for their families. Children will be affected differently than adults; kids are easily influenced until they reach adulthood. Of course, children learn how to act and behave form where they grew up. Influences come from older kids and adults in the area. …show more content…

Although, it is the only escape from poverty it is still hard to want to be around peers that don’t seem to struggle. Children can become disconnected from wanting to learn with the stress from what is going on at home. For example, a child in middle school that is poor have to deal with the pressure of being teased and taunted about what they wear or what they have. This can make a child not want to attend school and withdraw themselves from their outside world. Their outside world is considered outside of their community. That same middle school student feels safe there because no one is above them; everyone one is considered equal because they are all poor. Lee and Burkman found that most American students who start school significantly behind their peers can never close the readiness gap. School readiness is significant to academic achievement because poor living conditions can have long lasting consequences. Children can become drop outs, skip school, and/or have delinquent behaviors. “In Spite of the overwhelming effects of poverty on children’s education and development, there are many examples of children in low-income families who have thrived.” (Child Dev. 71: 543–562.) Family and their environment are key factors in raising offspring. Parents/guardians provide the

Why were Annabeth and Grover so eager to leave when they finished eating? *
erica [24]

Answer:

Because the Summer Solstice was nearing and because Ares had them nervous and because they were fugitives.

Explanation:

They had only a few days left before the summer solstice would pass. But they were hungry so they stopped for a quick bite or two. After scraping up a few dollars they bought a burger and settled down. To their surprise, Ares came in and sat down beside them and bought them another burger. He handed them a bag of supplies, a warning and was gone. With tension and responsibility on their shoulders, they wanted to leave and get things done.

Which of these is a good example of the author's use of dialogue to build suspense?
True [87]

The dialogue which is a good example of the author's use of dialogue to build suspense is, “You are rich, respected, admired, beloved; you are happy, as once I was. You are a man to be missed.”

Answer: Option B.

Explanation:

Many a times, authors make use of words or dialogue to create a suspense in the minds of readers, as in it makes a person curious or anxious to known about the uncertainty of what happened or might happen. The dialogue ‘You are rich, respected, admired, beloved; you are happy, as once I was. You are a man to be missed’ is taken from a short story ‘The Cask of Amontillado’ written by Edgar Poe. This dialogue builds suspense in a sense that the words ‘as once I was’ makes a reader anxious about what might have happened in a narrator’s life that he’s no more happy. The dialogue leaves space for uncertainty of the events that took place.

Read the descriptions of rhyme schemes below.
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The poem "Harlem" uses A. free verse

Explanation:

First, let's take a look at the poem "Harlem" by Langston Hughes:

What happens to a dream deferred?

     Does it dry up

     like a raisin in the sun?

     Or fester like a sore—

     And then run?

     Does it stink like rotten meat?

     Or crust and sugar over—

     like a syrupy sweet?

     Maybe it just sags

     like a heavy load.

     <em>Or does it explode?</em>

<em />

We can clearly see there isn't much of a pattern being applied. The very fist line of the poem is much longer than the rest of it. None of the lines constitute a iambic pentameter - a five-time repetition of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one. Therefore, we can eliminate options B and C, according to the descriptions provided in the question.

We can safely eliminate letter D as well, since we do not have a pattern of two consecutive lines that rhyme in this poem -- note that the two last lines do rhyme and are consecutive in the sense that there isn't another line between them; still, they do not belong to the same stanza and are not related enough to be considered a couplet.

<u>The only option left, and the correct one is A. free verse. Even though there are a few rhymes taking place in "Harlem" (sun/run, meat/sweet, load/explode), they do not follow a consistent pattern. Mostly, they are intercalated with lines that do not rhyme at all (up, sore, over, and sags). There is no concern for metrics either, each line having a different number of syllables.</u>
