Read the excerpt from “A Ride in the Night.”

The soldier called Brown turned toward Will. His eyes were cold and dangerous. He twisted Will’s shoulder crudely. “We’re on the lookout for horses intended for the Continental Army. Do you know anything about them?”

“Ouch! You’re hurting me!”

The man’s roughness had brought real tears to Will’s eyes.

The boy was glad of it. The pain would excuse the look of fear on his face. But his great fear was for York, hidden back in the woods with the horses.

Based on the details in the excerpt, which inference can be made about Will?

A He cares about others' safety more than his own.

B Will is easily bullied by people who are older and stronger.

C He worries most about what will happen to the horses.

I need and argumentative essay on whether companies should continue targeting kids in there advertisments
Use springboard unit 2 7th grade rading 2.8 and 2.6 passages for the assignments

Answers

Answer:

Children's advertisement is so easy  because they can influence other children. Yet that is where the ethical problems start. Kids aren't smart enough to know what they're selling to marketers. Advertisers already know that kids are going to exercise large numbers of Influence on their parents and in doing so can be relentless. When both children and parents are most insecure, such as when they are exhausted and hungry in the grocery store, the child's fervent pleas often result in the parent purchasing those products. Children seem to want almost any marketed product because the distinction between what is true and what is pretended is often not understood by them. If an ad shows a toy doing an impressive feat, they assume that if they buy it, it will do that. Kids don't understand the idea of selling.

Explanation:

if kids are to see other kids there age if tv they may think that they are able/mature enough to do these things. So my argument is that you should never target kids unless the company is customized to a kids product or something along those lines. Tobacco and Vaping companies often target kids with candy and sweets flavor knowing that it could potentially expand their market to children and teens. These types of companies that do not directly target them are still causing problems among the nations youth. So my argument stands that companies should never target children unless the product or service is tailored to children of that age.

What's the rhyme scheme of the poem? The clouds by frank d sherman
The sky is full of clouds to-day, And idly, to and fro, Like sheep across the pasture, they Across the heavens go. I hear the wind with merry noise Around the housetops sweep, And dream it is the shepherd boys,— They're driving home their sheep. The clouds move faster now; and see! The west is red and gold. Each sheep seems hastening to be The first within the fold. I watch them hurry on until The blue is clear and deep, And dream that far beyond the hill The shepherds fold their sheep. Then in the sky the trembling stars Like little flowers shine out, While Night puts up the shadow bars, And darkness falls about.

What is something that people generalize about kids that you think is WRONG? why do you think it is wrong? be sure to use the word generalize in your writing. pLEASEEEEEEE HELPPPP!! I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST! PLEASEE HELPEP

Answers

Generalization is wrong ninety percent of the time, it's never cool to assume a group of people act the same way, but it's more or less true regardless. I personally think its wrong to generalize kids negatively at all, but it's even worse when people generalize them to the point where they all have the same personality, and they're lollipops and strollers. Kids can have different personalities, they can be bold, or scared. Strong, or weak, it varies, and not all kids are the same. Some kids have a strong or weak mind, as well. Some of them are smart enough to not generalize people.
