Answer:

C

Hope this helps!!!! ^-^

Interpretation of the monkeys paw
Kamila [148]

Answer:

If the Whites hadn't been so greedy and appreciated what they had, they probably wouldn't use the Monkey's paw for wishes and they would still have their son and everything else they lost. Family is more important than money.

What evidence from Gilgamesh: A New English Version best supports the conclusion that Gilgamesh is a strong leader?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

B.) Gilgamesh answered, "Dear friend, dear brother, / I cannot kill Humbaba alone. / Please stay here with me. Stand at my side. / Two boats lashed together will never sink.

Explanation:

Stephen Mitchel's book "Gilgamesh" rewritten in a new version "Gilgamesh: A New English Version" tells of the heroic and brave deed of Gilgamesh in defeating the monster Humbaba that has been terrorizing the people.

When Enkidu and Gilgamesh went towards the forest to attack Humbaba, Enkidu suddenly became afraid and decided to leave Gilgamesh, even admitting that he doesn't mind if "<em>all men will know what a coward I have been</em>". But showing great leadership skills and courage, he tells him that they will defeat the monster together, united. By saying that he "<em>cannot kill Humbaba alone</em>", he not only shows his vulnerability but also gives courage to his friend that he also needs help from others too. These qualities all make him a courageous yet humble leader.

Is the following a strong or weak argument? How do you know? Identify the words or phrases that tell you what type of argument i
Trava [24]

Answer:

Weak argument.

Explanation:

The argument given gives a lot of personal opinions and does not cite evidence. They also fail to use relevant information, and false information. I.E "In fact, every kid likes to play video games." This has no roots in facts and no cited evidence given to prove other wise. There's also a bit of passive voice misuse here, "<u>Some</u> college kids can win lots of different games." You shouldn't use words like some/many/may in an argument. It makes your point look weak, you need to be strong and affirmative.

Select the correct text in the passage.
Nostrana [21]

Shortly before President Roosevelt’s State of the Union address was delivered on January 6, 1941, Eleanor published her first My Day column of the year. The essay anticipated many of the themes the president would address in his speech. Though hope was hard to entertain, she believed that many Americans would nevertheless find a ray of hope by working together toward the attainment of “peace with honor and justice for all.”She then mentioned the goals (or “freedoms,” in Franklin’s speech) for which she thought people would be inspired to fight: “Justice for all, security in certain living standards, a recognition of the dignity and the right of the individual human being, without regard to his race, creed, or color.”
