Answer:
1. A witch flying by - main clause
2. We can use Hopeville Road. - main clause
3. Because it is flooded. - subordinate clause
4. When the water has all drained away. - subordinate clause
5. There will be a lot of mud left on the road. - main clause
6. This is a shop. - main clause
7. If the tornado comes here. - subordinate clause
8. Schools are closed on Sunday. - main clause
9. Unless you turn the switch on - subordinate clause
10. Put this meat in the fridge. - main clause
Explanation:
The main clause in a sentence is an independent clause, which means it is able to express a complete thought on its own.
A subordinate clause, on the other hand, cannot express a complete thought when it is by itself. It needs the main clause in order to make sense. The best way to identify it is to look for subordinating conjunctions. When you read the clause, because of the conjunction, you can tell there is information missing. We often feel the need to ask "What?" once we have read a subordinate clause. Let's choose one of the subordinate clauses in the answer above:
7. If the tornado comes here. - ... what? What will happen if the tornado comes here. There is information missing. We can also identify this as a subordinate clause because of the conjunction "if" at the beginning.

Read the passage. Which sentence best describes Beth?
A. Beth enjoys helping poor people
.B.Beth is skilled at treating sick people.
C. Beth is more dutiful than her sisters.
D. Beth is kind, but her sisters are cruel.
by Louisa May Alcott (excerpt)
"Meg, I wish you'd go and see the Hummels. You know Mother told us not to forget them," said Beth, ten days after Mrs. March's departure.
"I'm too tired to go this afternoon," replied Meg, rocking comfortably as she sewed.
"Can't you, Jo?" asked Beth.
"Why don't you go yourself?" asked Meg.
"I have been every day, but the baby is sick, and I don't know what to do for it. Mrs. Hummel goes away to work, and Lottchen takes care of it. But it gets sicker and sicker, and I think you or Hannah ought to go."
Beth spoke earnestly, and Meg promised she would go tomorrow.
"Ask Hannah for some nice little mess, and take it round, Beth, the air will do you good," said Jo, adding apologetically, "I'd go but I want to finish my writing."
"My head aches and I'm tired, so I thought maybe some of you would go," said Beth.
"Amy will be in presently, and she will run down for us," suggested Meg.
So Beth lay down on the sofa, the others returned to their work, and the Hummels were forgotten. An hour passed. Amy did not come, Meg went to her room to try on a new dress, Jo was absorbed in her story, and Hannah was sound asleep before the kitchen fire, when Beth quietly put on her hood, filled her basket with odds and ends for the poor children, and went out into the chilly air with a heavy head and a grieved look in her patient eyes.

I disagree. High school tells us how to graph linear equations, find the tone in an author's story, but it doesn't tell us how to pay our bills. It doesn't tell us how to get an apartment, or how to prevent student loans. High school doesn't tell us how to prevent heartbreak, so how to not break someone's heart.
High school does not prepare us students for adulthood.

Artificial selection can be used to produce new strains of animals that have favorable traits. Despite its usefulness, it would be difficult to use artificial selection to produce cows that produce their own antibiotics to protect themselves from disease. Why can't artificial selection be used for this purpose?
Answer:
Because artificial evolution seeks to select phenotypic characteristics already existing in the species of animal being used.
Explanation:
Artificial selection is the method that allows human beings to promote the crossing of animals of the same species, in order to obtain a preole with phenotypic characteristics favorable to human beings. However, for this type of crossing to be possible, it is necessary that the desired characteristics already exist in members of the selected species. In the case of the question above, there are no cows that produce antibiotics themselves, so it would be impossible to use artificial selection for this purpose.

Explain how the church both nearly destroyed drama and also helped revived drama.
Answer:
Explanation:As the Roman Empire was Christianized, church officials, opposed the theater. ... The church nearly wiped out the art form of the theater. Some forms of dramatic ceremonies and rituals helped keep the tradition barely alive, and wandering entertainers no doubt helped preserve the tradition of acting.
The drama's affiliation with pagan gods did not sustain the Empire's new Christian beliefs, hence the art of theatre fell out of favor with the church.
Church and drama:Church officials opposed the theater when the Roman Empire became Christianized. The theater was practically extinguished by the church. Some theatrical events and rituals aided in keeping the practice alive, and travelling performers undoubtedly aided in the preservation of the performing tradition.

Which detail uses sensory words to describe Akela? Father Wolf waited till his cubs could run a little, and then on the night of the Pack Meeting took them and Mowgli and Mother Wolf to the Council Rock – a hilltop covered with stones and boulders where a hundred wolves could hide. Akela, the great gray Lone Wolf, who led all the Pack by strength and cunning, lay out at full length on his rock, and below him sat forty or more wolves of every size and colour, from badger-coloured veterans who could handle a buck alone, to young black three-year-olds who thought they could. The Lone Wolf had led them for a year now. He had fallen twice into a wolf-trap in his youth, and once he had been beaten and left for dead; so he knew the manners and customs of men. Which detail uses sensory words to describe Akela? a hilltop covered with stones and boulders who led all the Pack by strength and cunning lay out at full length on his rock from badger-coloured veterans
Answer:
The detail that uses sensory words to describe Akela is:
C. out at full length on his rock.
Explanation:
Sensory words are words or phrases that appeal to one of more of our five senses: sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing. Having that in mind, we can use elimination to answer this question:
A. a hilltop covered with stones and boulders - may appeal to sight, but does not refer to Akela. This option is incorrect.
B. who led all the Pack by strength and cunning - does refer to Akela, but does not appeal to any of the five senses. The words "strength" and "cunning" demand a different kind of interpretation from readers. This option is incorrect.
C. out at full length on his rock - this is the correct option. We can imagine Akela lying down on the rock; we can even see the position of his body because of this description. Imagine your dog or cat, for instance, lying down on the floor, with his/her belly's whole extension touching the floor.
D. from badger-coloured veterans - again, does appeal to the senses, but does not refer to Akela. This option is incorrect.

Which concluding sentence best reflects the writer's voice? O He taught me about chess legend Garry Kasparov, and together we dissected his games. O I like chess because it's super fun, and someaday I'll beat my uncle at his own game.
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question
Read this student's rough draft.
I learned the game of chess under the wise tutelage of my Uncle Ray. He's a chess master, and he dominates the West Side Park tournaments each spring. Uncle Ray explained bishops, rooks, and pawns for me as my parents were teaching me my alphabet. I learned how to protect my queen as my peers learned to ride bicycles, Ray instructed me daily on chess theory and end game strategy .
Which concluding sentence best reflects the writer's voice?
He taught me about chess legend Garry Kasparov, and together we dissected his games .
I like chess because it's super fun, and someday I'll beat my uncle at his own game.
He is a fantastic teacher, and he has the skills to crush the competition in any tourney .
The next local tourmament is being sponsored by the Rotary club and the entry fee is ten dollars.
Answer: He taught me about chess legend Garry Kasparov, and together we dissected his games .
Explanation:
The chosen sentence is the best to reflect the writer's voice because it keeps a similar tone and the same past tense. While the other choices are in the present tense, only this one keeps the past tense in which the writer refers to uncle Ray. Furthermore, it keeps the same rather formal and eloquent tone, as if the writer was an adult talking about childhood memories.
a-He taught me about chess legend Garry Kasparov, and together we dissected his games .
