Read the excerpt from "The Girl Who Silenced the World for Five Minutes.” In Canada, we live the privileged life, with plenty of

food, water, and shelter. We have watches, bicycles, computers, and television sets. The list could go on for two days. Two days ago here in Brazil, we were shocked when we spent time with some children living on the streets. This is what one child told us: "I wish I was rich, and if I were, I would give all the street children food, clothes, medicines, shelter, and love and affection.” If a child on the streets who has nothing is willing to share, why are we who have everything still so greedy?

People who have everything may not know the feeling of having nothing. The child who has nothing is willing to share because the child does not want someone to feel the same way that he/she did. Meaning, the poor child does not want someone to feel like they have nothing

An instructor wishes to find out whether a new teaching method is superior to his usual procedures, so he conducts an experiment
patriot [66]

Answer:

Placebo effects or experimenter bias are likely to affect results

Explanation:

Due to the fact that everyone in the class is quite excited about being taught by the new method, the most obvious error will be the placebo effect, a phenomenon where some people would perceive some benefit of some sort because they already know what is expected of them. Experimental bias may also occur since everyone is quite excited, but then he chooses to allocate the teaching method to a random half and the old method to the other half. This can cause the students allocated to the old method to provide bad reports and those who are allocated to the new method to claim excitement.

What are Psychologists' involvement in assessments related to death penalty cases
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Forensic psychologists, that is psychologists that specialize in psychological evaluation and treatment, especially in legal cases have become commonplace in death penalty cases ever since the Supreme Court ruled that capital sentencing must be based on the individual offense and the perpetrator of the crime. What this means, in essence, is that psychological factors among others must be considered as it could possibly influence jury decision.

The importance of forensic psychologists in the death penalty was greatly highlighted after the Supreme Court decided in 2002 that the use of the death penalty for mentally unstable people was unconstitutional. If an accused is deemed mentally unfit by a psychologist, such a person cannot face the death sentence. This goes on to underline the importance of the psychologists' assessments in death penalty cases.

enot [183]

Answer:

Probably A (I'm 99% sure)

Explanation:

By process of elimination I can tell it's not a rain gauge or a thermometer. However it could either be A. barometer or D. weather satellite. However, I think A. barometer because a weather satellite can only take images every 5-15 minutes, however a barometer is real time and can easily predict weather.
