preventing someone from accomplishing something.

Answer:

To hinder, impede or frustrate someone from achieving a set goal.

Explanation:

Thwart could either be a noun or a verb, the context determines its part of speech when used in a sentence. As a verb, it depicts that a desire could not be realized because it was frustrated by someone or something.

For example:

i. She did all she could to thwart his plans.

This simply means that she after all successfully impeded him from accomplishing his plans.

ii. Paul's aim to achieve a B in his English test was thwarted by his friend.

This makes us to understand that Paul's friend affected his plans to make a B grade in the test.

Sophie [7]

Answer:

In his famous "House Divided" speech of 1858, Lincoln predicts that if the issue of slavery isn't rectified then the United States will not be able to endure in its present condition.

A memoir describes past events, but it is not considered a historical document. Why?
AVprozaik [17]

A memoir is known to be only experiences that's based on its writer in terms of what they can remember during that time. Therefore, you cannot say that this is not totally related to past events in history, but rather past experiences that a person that might be in history has remembered.

Need help this is sooo hard<br>Book : The Giver​
mario62 [17]

Answer:

Look below:

Explanation:

1. The climax of the story is when Jonas realized that "Release" of the newborn is actually killing. But worst of all was when he realized that his father was the one doing the release of the newborns. Jonas was shocked when the Giver showed him a recording of the private ceremony.

2. I cannot help with dialogue because I do not have the book but just find a quote from Jonas and the giver in this section of the story.

3. Back up your quotes used.

4. Now you need to use your evidence in 2 and 3 to use a format called "RACES" typically used in Jr. High. (I'm assuming you're 7th grade)

R- Restate your point

A- Answer the question

C- Cite evidence (quote)

E- Explain your quotes/evidence

S- Sum it up. Tie it all in together and go over what you said.

I truly hope this helps you. I suggest you attempt some work on your own even if you fail because failure is better than passing while doing no work. In state testing or the EOC (end of course test) you will be dependent on your own. Good luck!
