Answer:

The claim that the excerpt most clearly supports seems to be:

D. Without humanity's presence, New York City would quickly deteriorate.

Explanation:

This excerpt taken from Alan Weisman's "The City Without Us" discusses how the human presence keep New York from becoming a disastrous chaos. As the author explains, without power and people to pump the water out, the subway systems of New York would be completely flooded. If it rains, it would only take some hours for it to be underwater; if it doesn't, just a couple of days. The author is showing readers that the city only functions because of the people who work to ensure it. If humans were to disappear, it wouldn't be long before the world became wild and nature claimed everything man has ever built.

(1) Susan was sitting in math class. (2) She began laughing like crazy. (3) The teacher thought Scott was making Susan laugh. (4
Pie

Answer: The answer would be A.

Explanation: The teacher can't make Susan stop watching TV, the teacher could talk to Susan parents but that doesn't really support the paragraph, and Scott was not the on laughing, he was getting into trouble. So the only one that makes the most sense is A.  (I hope this helps and makes sense)

Summarize Scrooge’s first two experiences with the Ghost of Christmas Past, and explain how they affect his perspective.
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

I will only write drafts for your question so it is not plagiarism when you use this.  Hope this helps!

Explanation:

topic sentence: When Scrooge went on a journey through his past, present, and future with the ghosts of Christmas, he was able to gain a new perspective about his life, especially about his past. Here is what his perspective shifted too.

reason: When traveling with the ghost of Christmas past, Scrooge was able to look at his life from a third-person perspective, so he was able to see his younger self instead of <em>being</em> him in the moment.

evidence: (never read this book nor the text so look back find a sentence or two and bring it in smoothly throughout the text) Try fitting in your statement like, "here is what it looked like for Scrooge in the text." Or, "This is what he saw when looking back to his younger self." etc.

end of reason 1: Scrooge was able to understand he was not responsible for his mistreatment as a child but that he is responsible for his mistakes as an adult.

reason 2: Another thing that changed Scrooges perspective was that he learns the simple things in life like love, friendship, and laughter hold much more value than money.

Explanation/Evidence: (never have read this book nor the text so look back find a sentence or two and bring it in smoothly throughout the text) Try fitting in your statement like, "here is what it looked like for Scrooge in the text." Or, "This is what he saw when looking back to his younger self." Or, "This is what got to Mr. Scrooge so he could learn this lesson,"

End of reason 2: Scrooge needed to learn about the value of love, friendship, and laughter so he would learn life isn't just about how much money and/or if you have any money at all.

Conclusion: Scrooge was able to change his perspective so much just by visiting the Ghost of Christmas Past. Proving that he was able to change and live his life to the fullest.

Paragraph 2:

Write about a opinion of yours or summary towards the book or about when scrooge meets the ghosts or an opinion of who you think helped him the most or why the past ghost was there first etc. etc.
