8 0

Regarding current political issues, Paine and Thoreau's position would be divergent and could be contradictory to each other depending on the interpretation.

According to "The Crisis", Paine would support a policy that allows the United States to expand and interfere with policies in other countries that may harm or benefit Americans. Paine, shows in his work, how the USA should be a sovereign nation, even if it implies conflicts and crises.

Thoreau, on the other hand, would not support this policy that interferes in the decisions of other countries, since in his work "Civil Disobedience", he refuses the expansion of the USA when it causes suffering and loss of other nations, through an expense high economic value, which could be better used to solve national problems.

write a letter to your friend in another school giving him three reasons why your school has been excelling in academic work

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Hey ( so and so) our high school has been excelling tremendously in our academic work. We have tutors and extra help at lunch in the library. We even have students from colleges come in and help us with any subject we need help in. They even tell us not to have late work because in the end we can have dances and pep rallys. This actually works because believe it or not ( so and so ) nobody has bad grades due to studying and no late work turned in. We're on top of our work and most of us are ahead of the class.

Answer:

Maybe adding more details to your story? Or talk more about the phrase itself.

Explanation:

Adding more details based on how you felt, and longing the consequences could be beneficial here. Besides that, possibly adding another story? If you don't have one, then think about a famous story that deepens within your paper. Also, maybe make another paragraph or two to talk about the meaning of the phrase. That's my biggest idea for you, good luck! (sorry if this wasn't very helpful, I'm a seventh grader.)

(here's an example, this is just how I pictured it. feel free to use it:D)

"The phrase itself is very important; when used, it is most likely in the persons best interest that the other person in the conversation stays safe. For example, you would want your friend to stay safe if they were participating in dangerous activities without proper equipment. Risks aren't always the best solution, and that is what the phrase is creating awareness for."
