Today, social media has become an essential part of an individual's life. From reading about current events to discussing a TV s

how's latest episode with friends, everything is now done on social media. A few years ago, only a handful of social media sites existed, which people hardly used. Now, the Internet is cluttered with social media sites ranging from those that let people share photos and videos to those that allow people to broadcast their thoughts and experiences live.
Today, social networking sites are very popular. This is because a large number of people have accounts on all social media sites, and they are usually online throughout the day. According to a survey conducted by a research center, 94% of teens use cellphones to go online at least once daily in America. Further, this research center concludes that around 56% of these teens go online several times a day. Most teens spend time online browsing through social media sites, reading people's posts or looking at pictures and watching videos.
One of the positive aspects of teens spending more time on social media is that they can be contacted at any time of the day. Modern educators are interested in integrating social media in classroom learning. Students can get in touch with teachers anytime if they are inquisitive about a certain topic or have questions about what they recently learned in the classroom. This also helps teachers know that students are interested and have been paying attention in the classroom. Teachers can create a group on social media and add their students to the group. They can post links and videos for their students and encourage them to share their observations with others. In this way, the entire class can view information with a single click. This can ensure that students are prepared for a class beforehand and that teachers do not have to restate the same information.
Social media can help students contact each other when they need help. Class projects, group assignments, or homework-related inquiries can be easily resolved on social media groups. Social media can also help parents keep track of their child's progress at school. Since classrooms are being modernized by combining technology with traditional resources, social media should be considered as a practical tool to educate students and spread knowledge.

1. Based on the passage, which event has most directly influenced the increase in popularity of social media sites?
A.
the change in the way people use their cellphones for entertainment
B.
the increase in the total number of teachers who are adopting social media sites for classroom instruction

How does jim o'connor feel about his own future in the glass menagerie
ira [324]
In the character descriptions preceding the play, Jim is described as a "nice, ordinary, young man." He is the emissary from the world of normality. Yet this ordinary and simple person, seemingly out of place with the other characters, plays an important role in the climax of the play.

The audience is forewarned of Jim's character even before he makes his first appearance. Tom tells Amanda that the long-awaited gentleman caller is soon to come. Tom refers to Jim as a plain person, someone over whom there is no need to make a fuss. He earns only slightly more than does Tom and can in no way be compared to the magnificent gentlemen callers that Amanda used to have.

Jim's plainness is seen in his every action. He is interested in sports and does not understand Tom's more illusory ambitions to escape from the warehouse. His conversation shows him to be quite ordinary and plain. Thus, while Jim is the long-awaited gentleman caller, he is not a prize except in Laura's mind.

The ordinary aspect of Jim's character seems to come to life in his conversation with Laura. But it is contact with the ordinary that Laura needs. Thus it is not surprising that the ordinary seems to Laura to be the essence of magnificence. And since Laura had known Jim in high school when he was the all-American boy, she could never bring herself to look on him now in any way other than exceptional. He is the one boy that she has had a crush on. He is her ideal.

maw [93]
In my opinion, the correct answer is <span>c. were published to be read by common people. The invention of the printing press a century earlier was the driving force of literacy, which was becoming more widespread than ever. Books were cheaper and affordable to members of the growing middle class. Also, the middle-class people started dictating the literary taste, so there was no need for employing sublime styles and topics that would appeal to the educated aristocracy. In the 16th century, Giorgio Vasari wrote his "Lives of the Artists" - an easily read and extremely interesting account on lives of secular people - the major artists of the age. This book quickly became a bestseller, which means it was read by common people.</span>

Anestetic [448]
Students should have to have a certain amount of community service hours to graduate. For one, it would help the community, of course. Second, the students would learn about helping the community. And it would make graduating a little bit more of a challenge, so not just anyone can graduate. If doing community service was mandatory to graduate many people would benefit.
