Read the research paper excerpt and answer the question. Global warming, otherwise known as a gradual climate change, is a subje

ct that has been in the spotlight more and more recently. The effects of global warming are on the rise, and they do not discriminate against any corner of the world; the effects are universal. The average temperature of our atmosphere continues to rise as the Arctic ice continues to melt. Coral reefs are dying in droves, and we are seeing an upsurge in extreme weather events, such as tropical storms and wildfires ("Global"). It is time that we, as a nation, wake up and start taking care of the planet that has taken care of us for so long. As Al Gore so succinctly states, "What we take for granted might not be here for our children" ("Memorable quotes"). How does the author's choice of underlined words affect the purpose of the paragraph? The words are carefully chosen so as to trigger feelings of guilt within the reader. The words are carefully chosen to scare those who read it into conserving resources. The words are carefully chosen to make people feel depressed about what is happening to our earth. The words are carefully chosen to persuade readers of the urgent need to join the fight against global warming

Answer:

Written Below.

Explanation:

I have put 2 answers, you can pick 1.

1. Wallace used ethos to support the claim that Alabama has the right to continue policies of racial segregation. He referenced the US Constitution that says states should have their own rights. America does not have a king, and rights are divided among the states. Therefore, he says states should decide on issues of segregation.

2. Former Governor of Alabama George Wallace ran in the 1968 United States presidential election as the candidate for the American Independent Party. Wallace's pro-segregation policies during his term as Governor of Alabama were rejected by the mainstream of the Democratic Party. The impact of the Wallace campaign was substantial, winning the electoral votes of several states in the Deep South. Although Wallace did not expect to win the election, his strategy was to prevent either major party candidate from winning a majority in the Electoral College. This would throw the election into the House of Representatives, where Wallace would have bargaining power sufficient enough to determine, or at least strongly influence, the selection of a winner.

Sidenote: Hope this helps! :D

Which statement BEST describes the difference in how Melody and her coach view the base position? A. Melody and the coach both t
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

D. Melody thinks the base position is not important and that it is less valuable than flyer; her coach thinks the base position supports the whole team.

Explanation:

Throughout the story, its obvious to see Melody's frustration that she can't fly in the air and that she feels that the base positions is pointless. To support my answer, here are some quotes from the passage that evidently shows that she wasn't pleased with the results that came to her.

<u>Melody:</u>

"Well, Melody was definitely not laughing with her. Was this some sort of mean joke to keep Melody from getting the attention she deserved as a flyer?"

"Melody had not been in a cheerful spirit since her coach listed the line–up for the stunting routine for the competition."

"Melody could not understand why her coach had dismissed her from the position when she knew that she could handle the pressure of the competition."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is some evidence to support my answer that the coach thinks the base position is quite prominent to the whole team.

<u>The Coach</u>

"I am very proud of you for taking on the new base position for this competition. I hope you realized the importance of being the base because it is the foundation that holds the entire stunt group together. You are definitely a star Melody, so do not ever worry about that. I appreciate you stepping out of the spotlight to let someone else have her moment to shine. You are a true star in my eyes."

"<u>After practice, the cheer coach pulled Melody aside and congratulated her on her efforts in the base team</u>. "I always know I can count on you, Melody. We may have to reassign your stunt position full time. This might be your new calling," <u>she laughed</u>."

I hoped this helped a lot!
