from Some Soul to Keep
by J. California Cooper
Seems like a long time ago I was born and grew up in a little ole town ain't nobody ever hardly heard of. For another long time I was afraid it was going to be the whole world for me, and I thought I'd live without anything nice or good happening to me in my whole life! I found out it was silly to think like that, but it wasn't crazy, cause a whole lot of people live poor, in one spot, all the days of their life. Already, you know we was poor. The house we lived in seemed held together by the newspapers glued on the walls and taped over cracked windows. . . . I had a older sister and brother. My sister took over when Daddy went to prison…She worked me like a dog while she laid up and read magazines. . . . Course, she was only sixteen, but you don't have to always get old to be kind and good to people. My brother just stayed gone! I had a little sister who was kind of sickly, so I did all her work for her, and any food I got hold to, I shared with her.

3. What does Hecate say will soon be coming?
Answer:
Macbeth
Explanation:
Imagine you are a genetic scientist who has been asked to advise the president on whether or not this new procedure should be made legal. What do you say?
Hello. You did not provide the article to which this question is related. However, when researching your question on the internet, I was able to find a question exactly the same as yours that shows that the question refers to the article "Proposed Treatment to Fix Genetic Diseases Raises Ethical Issues" that shows the attempt of scientists to legally approve the practices to manipulate the DNA present in the maternal egg, to remove possible DNA errors that can cause genetic diseases in babies.
If I were one of the scientists on the team who wants to legalize this practice, I would try to argue against society's concerns about the problems that could arise from this manipulation.
A major concern that people have is that this practice generates "manufactured" babies. I would fight this fear, showing that we would only deal with DNAs that have flaws that can trigger diseases, that is, the modified DNA, would maintain all the characteristics that the baby would normally have, but would only rid him of genetic diseases, which would be very advantageous for the child and the family. This would not create a "manufactured" baby, nor would it cause any adverse reaction to the child or the mother.
In addition, this practice would be performed on very few women, as 1 in 200 women have DNA defects. This shows that this practice would only be used in cases of need and these cases would be very few.
why did aragorn choose to follow the orcs instead of frodo
Answer:
Because he knows that if he tries to go after Frodo and Sam, the other two hobbits will be tortured and killed, and he refuses to countenance that: 'Our choice then,' said Gimli, 'is either to take the remaining boat and follow Frodo, or else to follow the Orcs on foot.
Answer:
Aragorn chose not to follow because he had heard from Boromir himself how it had affected him, and probably felt the Ring was better with no outside influence.

A 3-column table with 1 row. Column 1 is labeled Text with entry "On December 5, 1955, concerned people in Montgomery, Alabama, refused to ride city buses. They were tired of unfair treatment of African Americans. They demanded equal treatment. This bus boycott was successful. The Supreme Court got involved in 1956. The Supreme Court said segregation laws are not allowed." Column 2 is labeled Details with entry There was a bus boycott in December of 1955. The boycott took place in Montgomery, Alabama. Citizens demanded equal treatment for African Americans. The boycott was successful. The Supreme Court was involved. Segregation was banned in 1956. Column 3 is labeled Paraphrase with entry People held a bus boycott in December of 1955 in Montgomery, Alabama. They demanded equal rights."
Which sentence best completes the paraphrase of the passage?
a)Thanks to the Supreme Court, the buses started rolling again in 1956 to end the bus boycott.
b)When the bus boycott ended, the Supreme Court became involved to decide if segregation laws were legal.
c)In 1956, the Supreme Court decided that segregation laws were illegal based on the Constitution.
d)The boycott was successful because the Supreme Court banned all segregation laws in 1956.
Answer:
d)The boycott was successful because the Supreme Court banned all segregation laws in 1956.
Explanation:
The above option is the sentence that best completes the paraphrase of the passage.
From the passage, we discover that the bus boycott started in 1955. So, it means that the bus boycott continued till Supreme Court came in 1956. The coming of the Supreme Court brought a lasting solution.
Therefore, the boycott was successful because the Supreme Court banned all segregation laws in 1956.

why do my parents do it
Answer:
your parents can to do it on so many reasons and purposes. Some of these being that they dont want their children to end up or go through what they went through as they were growing up. Most parents want a future for their kids and want them to grow up being someone and not just a slack off who never even tried to do anything for their life. They want to be proud and not let down and they want to see how far their children can actually go. To show other people or the people who envy them that they raised a great son or daughter and that they will grow up to be someone with a nice job, house, car, etc. Parents do the things they do for our own good, and we should accept it as it is because we are going to need it when they are not here anymore to tell us what we need to do. So we need to ask them questions about things we need to know in life before they get to close to the end.
