For years, this school has been wasteful. From the banners for the football games to the printer paper we toss when we mess up o

n an essay to the coke can we smash and toss in the garbage, we waste too much. If, for a year, we were to save and stack all the paper and aluminum cans we throw away, we could probably stand on a stack the size of a skyscraper. The school needs a recycling program.
A recycling program would teach students the importance of recycling. Many students who would not normally recycle at home might start recycling at home if they were made to recycle at school. If people realized how they could benefit from recycling at home, they would be amazed. This could only further help the environment as people would be recycling at home and at school.
People who are against a recycling program will say that it costs the school money. They are correct. It does cost money. What they fail to understand is that it brings in money as well. Look on the sides of most soft drink cans, and you'll see that recycling plants pay money for each can they receive. Think of the ways the school could use the money. The money the school makes from the program could pay for the costs it takes to start the program.
Recycling also teaches students to be responsible. Many adults say that kids are selfish. They say kids don't think about their futures. Recycling could show these adults they are wrong. Students who recycle see how their actions affect their futures and the Earth's future. This means they are thinking about everyone's future. When people recycle they are helping the environment. They are thinking about more than themselves.

Why does Donna include the following sentences?

"People who are against a recycling program will say that it costs the school money. They are correct. It does cost money."
Select one:
a.
to persuade students to raise money with an auction
b.
to show that students will have to pay for the program
c.
to suggest that the school should not recycle
d.
to address the arguments of the opposing side

What type of sentence is the following
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

B. Run-On/Comma Splice

Explanation:

Fragments are incomplete sentences. They are missing one of three main elements: a subject, a verb, and a complete thought. In the given example, the sentence has a subject, a verb, and the thought is complete. We easily understand what information was given. <u>So this is NOT a fragment, option A.</u>

A complete sentence must have a subject, a verb, an object, a complete thought. As our sentence has two independent clauses, it has two complete thoughts, it is a compound sentence. <u>So this is NOT option C.</u>

A comma splice occurs when two or more independent clauses are joined by just a comma and no coordinating conjunction. In the given example there is no comma, so this is not a comma splice.

Run-on sentences have two independent clauses, but they were not properly connected, that is no mark of punctuation.  In the given example we have two independent clauses that were connected without punctuation mark or any coordinating conjunction. So this is the Run-on sentence. <u>Option B is correct.</u>

I hope it helped you :) Have a good day!

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

It shows how enslaved people were exposed to the outside elements and weather.

Explanation:

"Sugar Changed the World" by arc Aronson and Marina Budhos gave an insight into how the spices that we daily use came about. Particularly, the history of sugar that almost everyone can't stay without is traced in this narrative where they provide the 'journey' of how sugar came to be.

As found in the excerpt from the book, the narrator reveals that the slaves did not have a time of rest. Even after their work is done for the day, there is no respite at home, for their houses were in the open and thus, made them vulnerable to diseases. Likewise, the photo by V. C. Vulto shows enslaved people's huts with <em>"no doors and are built on sandy, open ground with no trees nearby".</em>

Thus, the <u>image helps the readers understand the conditions of the slaves, exposed to the outside elements and weather.</u>
