Passage One: The human history of the region now known as Yellowstone National Park goes back more than 100 centuries. From abou

t 11,000 years ago to the recent past, many groups of Native Americans used the park as their homes, hunting grounds, and transportation routes. In 1872, the United States established Yellowstone as the first national park in the world. A new concept was born, and with it, a new way for people to preserve and protect the best of what they had for the enjoyment of future generations.
  Passage Two: Yellowstone National Park, as a whole, possesses close to 60 percent of the world's geysers. The Upper Geyser Basin is home to the largest numbers of this fragile feature found in the park. Within one square mile, there are at least 150 geysers. Of this remarkable number, only five major geysers are predicted regularly by experts: Castle, Grand, Daisy, Riverside, and Old Faithful. In addition to the many smaller geysers in the basin, there are numerous hot springs and one recently developed mud pot.
  By examining the supporting details, what can be said to be a true statement?
      Both authors use details about the geysers in Yellowstone to express their viewpoints.
      One author is trying to persuade the reader to share a certain viewpoint, while the other is only concerned with giving information.
      One author relies on statistical information to express a viewpoint, while the other speaks through personal experience.
      Both authors are giving information but do not have opinions about anything relating to Yellowstone National Park.

How does the author develop the idea that kites are skillful fliers? Use details and quotations from the text to support your an

Answer:

Generally speaking, raptors, or flying predators, are among the most appreciated and loved birds worldwide. From the California condor to the frigid owl, hardly any birds contrast with the tigers of the air: the incredible trackers whose excellence and ability have motivated craftsmanship and writing for quite a long time. The superb quills of the peacock or the vibrant plumage of hitting cannot rival the force of a peregrine hawk or the assurance of an osprey. Nonetheless, remembered for this gathering of trackers is one flying predator that is generally secret yet similarly noteworthy. The kites of the world are by and significant more modest than most raptors yet similarly as exceptional in expertise and effortlessness as some other tracker of the skies.

Many people consider paper or material constructions were flown with a string starting from the earliest stage the word 'kite' is utilized. Notwithstanding these favourite toys, a kite can likewise allude to a sort of raptor. Kites have a little head, a short bill and long thin wings and tail. Kites can be tracked down everywhere in the world in basically warm locales. Kites live on an assortment of prey—from bugs to little rodents or reptiles. A few kites eat just a single sort of prey. Kites are by and prominent amazing noticeable worldwide and address a gathering of birds among the most aerobatic of fliers.

Two of the most recognizable kites in the Southern United States are the swallow-followed kite and the Mississippi kite. The Mississippi kite is somewhat plain to take a gander at a light earthy coloured and dark body with a buff or white-shaded head. Be that as it may, to watch a Mississippi kite fly is to watch an expressive dance noticeable all around. These raptors eat creepy flying crawlies, so they do the vast majority of their chasing on the wing. As you would envision, finding flying bugs requires a lot of readiness and speed. On the off chance that you are sufficiently fortunate to see one in flight, you will be astonished at the fast turns, smooth moves, and quick quests for this bird. Search for them above enormous fields, particularly throughout the mid-year.

Likewise, the swallow-followed kite standard in the South is all the more effectively recognizable and frequently seen flying over streets. With dark wings and tail, white head and body, and a forked or swallow-like tail, this raptor is similarly pretty much as aerobatic as the Mississippi kite. Swallow-followed kites like flying over thruways in the late spring as they can exploit the thermals, or sections of warmed air, that transcend the asphalt. Whenever they have moved to adequate tallness, swallow-tails will coast, searching for snakes and reptiles and creepy crawlies. They additionally eat little rodents, frogs, and different birds every so often. Watching a swallow-tail fly is a ton like watching a tumbler play out a story schedule. Once in a while, fluttering its wings, it utilizes its forked tail to make sharp turns, follow circles in the sky, or keep a heading. Gifted, achieved, and elegant, this bird is, however engaging as it could be fantastic.

The two kites are known to eat while flying, in contrast to most different flying predators. This training rations energy and permits them to chase constantly. While these kites are not recorded as jeopardized, they are uncommon and are recorded as fundamental in certain states. Loss of living space is the fundamental justification for the decrease. On the off chance that you are sufficiently fortunate to see one, consider yourself as a natural part of the trivial few. These eminent birds are a sight you will not come before long neglect.

What Impression do you gain of Macbeth from the views expressed in the passage?
garik1379 [7]
 <span>the first poster does have a point about trying to do your own homework, but you get a pass with me this time because i really, really like macbeth (which i also had to learn in a class). anyways, here's my impression of it..... 

1. this is one of my favorite verses in shakespeare and it's necessary because by the end of the play you can see how far macbeth has fallen.... he starts out as a "good guy"... brave, noble, a good swordsman, a great leader, ironically he naturally has all of the attributes that make a good and just king 

2. macbeth is still not fully transformed (in personality at least) from good to evil and he is therefore still sorry that he has killed duncan whose blood is literally on his hands, so much that he is unwilling to go back and frame duncan's attendants for murder. lady macbeth on the other hand, who sees the prize (kingship) close at hand, is ashamed at how weak he appears and is unaffected by the blood on her hands after she finishes macbeth's job for him, noting that all they need is some water to clear them of the deed... 

3. macbeth's change is seen by his willingness to kill essentially his best friend (banquo) because of the potential threat he poses... also if you juxtapose his speech with lady macbeth before he kills banquo and this one when he plots to kill banquo, in the former he is far more timid and unsure while here he is the one pressing the issue... before, he doesn't want to kill duncan partially because of how "good" he is, but now, presented with a person who not only has similar qualities but is also HIS BEST FRIEND, he has NO problems in ordering his murder. 

4. he kills macduff's family because the witches tell him that macduff most likely will cause his downfall.... i think his decision to kill macduff's family as well as his best friend banquo shows that he is ruthless and willing to do anything, even kill innocents in order to hold on to his kingship. also the more evil he does the more isolated he becomes, as he loses allies to suspicion, (nobles, macduff, malcolm), madness (lady macbeth) and murder (banquo), so he keeps killing because he basically realizes that he cannot turn back and therefore must keep on the evil path he has chosen for himself... 

5. macbeth basically is sorry that lady macbeth died at such an inopportune time so he could not give her a proper farewell. he then speaks about how essentially pointless the span of life can be, comparing it first to a candle, which burns brightly but has a finite length of time before it is extinguished, then to an actor or a stage for a short time. both metaphors do a good job of conveying how small each life is to the grand scheme of things; our life, our TIME is finite and comes to an end yet TIME itself moves on irrespective of what happens to each of us, or how bright or dim each of our own candles were.</span>
