Answer:

In fact, students today spend more than double the time on homework than students two decades ago. Sadly, as time spent on homework doubles, student performance continues to decline.

Explanation:

According to the excerpt from Is Homework Truly Beneficial, a student is arguing about mandatory homework in schools and he brought some research done two decades ago by researchers who believed had a negative impact on students physical and emotional health as the average student spends about 3 hours daily on homework, yet students are still given more homework to do even as early as second grade.

Furthermore the research suggests that the average high school student spends 22 hours on homework each week.

The statement that best serves the claim of the writer is that student performance continues to decline even as time spent on homework increases.

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Oxymoron

Explanation:

The term<em> </em><em>figurative language</em> refers to the use of words in an unusual way in order to convey a complicated meaning, make writing more interesting, add clarity, or make a comparison. Figures of speech are the key part of figurative language, and there are many of them.

One of them is called <em>oxymoron</em>. It involves a combination of contradictory or incongruous words. In this case, we have the combination of words <em>dark </em>and <em>suns</em>. As we know, the sun can only be bright, but in this case, it's described by a completely opposite word - <em>dark</em>.

A school excursion held in Ghana<br>​
otez555 [7]

Explanation:

Field trips offer a good learning experience for students. It is during such trips students have the opportunity to apply practical knowledge they have theoretically acquired in class. Over time, there has been a shift in regards to the purpose of travel. Initially, travel was meant to be a leisure activity. However, with the advent of globalization, the focus of travel has shifted serving as a symbol of social responsibility. A typical example can be tourism. The various forms of tourism, for example, pro-poor tourism, ecotourism, and dark tourism have suddenly gained popularity worldwide. Despite Ghana being one of the fastest developing nations, it has also gained a remarkable reputation as being a dream destination for tourists. Efforts are underway in Ghana to improve its deteriorating international image in order to regain its rightful position as a remarkable tourist destination country.Ghana was essential in helping promote voluntarism through the practical implementation of the things taught in class. The trip offers a chance for us to achieve a lot within a short period of time. For instance, it was the best chance for me to develop myself into a responsible individual by working as a volunteer. As such, I am able to offer my best to those who deserve it more in society. It offers an opportunity to undertake something revolutionary, as well as the devotion of time and effort in achieving the set goals. By so doing, this has a long term positive impact on the Ghanaians. The trip was much different from what I had initially expected but it provided an opportunity to work with several NGOs, orphanages, governmental organizations, as well as schools in Ghana. Many of these groups were more than willing to welcome and work with volunteers outside their country to improve the lives of others.

The paper aims to outline and deeply evaluate my personal, academic, and destination motivations for the Ghana field trip module. As a student of tourism, my interest in the field of tourism has blossomed during my high school years. I like to explore different places around the globe and actively take part in all sorts of cultural and social events. I personally feel that the Ghana field trip module is the first essential step for me towards achieving my goals in the field of tourism.
