We are expected to fill in the blanks. Find the missing words below:

  • 1. In a traditional wedding, the person performing the ceremony is often wordy, while the bride and groom are very, <u>concise </u>saying just "I do."
  • 2. When he saw no way to <u>avert</u> the plane crash, the pilot parachuted to safety.
  • 3. People often take <u>drastic</u> steps in anger and later regret their extreme actions.
  • 4. The drummer told interesting <u>anecdotes</u> about famous rock singers he had played with.
  • 5. Because Frank seems so <u>candid</u>, everyone believes him even when he tells a lie.
  • 6. In most American schools, it is not<u> appropriate</u> for students to call their teachers by their first names.
  • 7. When the real murderer confessed, the police had to <u>acknowledge </u>that the wrong man had been jailed.
  • 8. To earn money for college, Lonnie felt he had to either join the army or get a job. He didn't like either<u> alternative.</u>
  • 9. A couple of older boys tried to <u>compel </u>some first-graders to hand over their lunch money.
  • 10. Any player who does not <u>comply</u> with the rules will be dropped from the team.

To choose the best word that completes a sentence, the context of the sentence provides a vital hint. For example in Sentence 8 where two things are being compared, 'alternative' is the best word because it means one of two or more things.

In sentence 9 also, we can deduce that the first-graders were being bullied. So they were being compelled or forced to do something they did not want.

When this reasoning is followed, we can complete the remaining blanks.

Research the lyrics to an appropriate song or rap that has a universal theme. What is the theme of the song?
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Rainbow by Kacey Musgraves

Explanation:

The theme is that life can be hard but you'll get through it. An example of this in the song would be when Kacey sings "And you're stuck out in the same old storm again,you hold tight to your umbrella, but darling, I'm just tryin' to tell ya, that there's always been a rainbow hanging over your head". It is evidence because the rainbow over your head represents that you will get through the tough times. The "storm" refers to the tough times.

How did Duckworth’s experiences as a teacher contribute to the text?
pogonyaev

Angela Duckworth was teaching math when she noticed something intriguing: The most successful students weren’t always the ones who displayed a natural aptitude; rather, they displayed something she came to think of as grit. Later, as a graduate student in psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, she defined the term — a combination of passion and perseverance for a singularly important goal — and created a tool to measure it: the “grit scale,” which predicted outcomes like who would graduate from West Point or win the National Spelling Bee. As a result of this work, Dr. Duckworth was named a MacArthur “genius” in 2013, and the notion of grit has become widely known. Her new book, “Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance,”
