Read the passage and answer the question that follows: Despite our best efforts as parents, we will always make mistakes in rais

ing our children. It's inevitable. There are so many decisions to be made in any given day, week, month, or year. It's an inhuman task to make all of these decisions correctly. Who would even want to try for perfection? We shouldn't worry too much, though, because it is precisely our mistakes that teach our children the most about life. Life is full of mistakes, obstacles, and trouble. Shielding our children from these by striving for perfection in our own parenting does them no favors. Given this, a parent might be tempted to give up trying to make good decisions and simply let the chips fall where they may. Admittedly, that attitude is not without its benefits, but it goes too far in the other direction. Children are much more observant than we think, but often draw the wrong conclusions from what they observe. If we give up trying to make the right decisions, they might get the message that we don't care about their future. We can take comfort in this much: we teach our children even when we're not trying to. That doesn't mean we should stop trying to do our best, to make the right decisions whenever possible. It just means that we shouldn't beat ourselves up when we make mistakes. Either it won't matter because it's something small, or it just might build some character in our children, a commodity that will serve them well. Which of these best describes the audience this author is speaking to? People who are considering becoming parents People who do not want to have children People who are concerned about their parenting ability People who have children who misbehave

How has the connotative meaning of “swagger” changed across centuries
Blizzard [7]

I don't really know why this would be a question related to school but either way I need to be taking this class.

Nowadays, the word <em>swag </em>is sort of synonymous with the word <em>cool</em>. People didn't really start using it in that way until around 2003, and when it became a definitive Thing in 2010.

Prior to this, however, the word <em>swag</em> was just used as a way to describe how someone walks. No, literally; the earliest recordings of the word came from William Shakespeare in <em>a Midsummer Night's Dream</em>. The official definition around the late sixteenth century was "to strut in a defiant or insolent manner," or sometimes as ways to describe how inept that a person was.

Strangely, its meaning got somehow lost a little while back, with a lot of people wondering where exactly this word came from since, surely, the creator of it wasn't Jay-Z or Will.i.am, right?

Dig more into it if you actually want to know. Simply, it was just how a person presented themselves; not that different to how it's used now.

A gerund can never _____.
dusya [7]
Since gerunds function the same way as nouns, they can be used as subjects, direct object, indirect object, or complement. In the same way that nouns can never function as verbs, a gerund can never serve as the main verb, too. If you use a word in the -ing form, it's no longer a gerund, it's called the present participle. What's the difference between gerunds and present participles?

Gerund: <em>Reading </em>books calm me.
Present Participle: She is <em>reading </em>books assigned to her by the teacher.

Based on the poems on pages 42–47, what is the decision Ha’s family is trying to make? Is this decision challenging for them? Wh
Elza [17]

The poems show that Ha's family must decide to leave South Vietnam for an unknown destination unless they must suffer the fate of their father arrested by the Communists and suffer hunger and deprivations of the raging war between North and South Vietnam.

 

  • The decision to leave is challenging because they have to abandon their father to the Communists without knowing his fate

  • It is a difficult decision because, at first, they do not know where they are escaping or their chances of outsmarting the ubiquitous Communists.

 

  • The decision to escape from South Vietnam is challenging to Ha's family because they will now have to live in a cultural setting that is discriminating.

 

Thus, it remains a difficult decision to leave one's home for an unknown land.
