Urban Gardens
Every day, the urban sprawl in America grows farther outwards. Rural farms disappear. American farmers lose their lands to banks and businesses. Food prices around the world are rising steadily. What can people do to get fresh vegetables when the nearest countryside is miles away?
The answer is to plant urban gardens. Urban gardening is a new trend in megacities like New York, Chicago, and other big cities around the globe. Many of these cities have started programs to help gardeners. People are welcome to grow herbs and vegetables on balconies and roofs, vacant lots, abandoned yards, and even on the shoulders of highways. With a little thought, any city dweller can think of an area of land on which to grow a garden.
Gardeners must be careful because, in a city, chemicals can contaminate the land. To help with this, cities are beginning to test the soil for free. It is important that more cities around the world turn to green programs to make cities more eco-friendly. As citizens begin to grow more and more gardens around the globe, environments will become more stable and less hazardous. Gardens will return more oxygen into the air and will lower greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. Urban gardening groups have begun to petition city governments to begin more green programs to assist the gardening movement.
Think about how many rooftops are in a city. Skyscrapers have large, flat roofs. Urban gardeners use these roofs to construct large planters for vegetables, grass, trees, and shrubs. All of these roofs are built to allow water to run off their surfaces. This means that irrigation for crops is not a problem. These rooftop gardens make cities greener and more fertile. They also help the environment by refreshing the air and by reducing smog and effects to the ozone layer. One element that the urban gardening movement needs more than anything else is loyal members. As an interested reader, look into joining a local gardening group or inquire at your city office about starting a group on your own. Imagine how delicious a meal grown from your own garden would taste!

People have been known to act in extraordinary ways in order to survive. Write an informative essay that explains the lengths to which people will go in order to survive. Use examples from real life, books, movies, or television to support your essay.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Indeed, people have been known to act in extraordinary ways in order to survive. The lengths to which people will go in order to survive are impressive to the degree that some have called these acts "miracles."
I would like to set the following example to understand the magnitude of people's reactions when confronted with a dangerous situation.
I remember September 2017, when a large earthquake hit Mexico City. I immediately watched the news because I have many good friends in México and I love the country and its people.
I was watching the news reports. Reporters were covering the news from some places where buildings collapsed. One image impressed me the most. It was the video of an old, slim woman, lifting a large and heavy rock in order to rescue her granddaughter.
Unbelievable! How a grandmother had the strength in that very moment to act in a desperated way, only focused on one accomplishment: to rescue her granddaughter.
If somebody would have told me about this, hardly I had believed it. But no, I watched the video on the news.
In the end, with the help of the rescue teams, she could find her granddaughter, alive and well.
Later in the news, the reporter interviewed the lady and of course, she could not explain how she did that amazing feat. Just as a reference, the reporter asked two big and strong men to try to lift a similar rock just to show the audience how heavy it was, and of course the two men were not able to lift it.
So yes, the human being is capable of doing extraordinary things in order to survive in the face of danger.
Write a letter to your friend, advising him/her on how to start a garden. You may use some of the words and phrases given. Make sure your letter is not less than 120 words.
weed-dig-must have good soil-choose plants carefully-pots-flowerbeds-water daily-use fertiliser
Answer:
Letter to a friend on how to start a garden.
Explanation:
To,
My dear friend Ashley,
I heard that you are planning to get a garden started in your new home. So, here's some of my own take on how to get that done.
First, you must get rid of all the weeds in your garden as these plants will kill the good ones. Dig them out and also choose a place where there's good soil. Good soil will ensure your plants get the best treatment.
And then, you also have to choose what plants you want, while also focusing on the type of pots required. Different plants need different pots. Also, if you're working on planting on the ground itself and not on a pot, then make sure the flowerbeds are regularly weeded.
And most important of all, use fertilizers now and then, though not daily. And also make sure to water your plants daily or they will not grow as they should be.
If, in case, you need any help or anything, do let me know. I may not be an expert in gardening but I do know a few pointers to get it done.
Take care and will see you soon.
Love,
Sally.

Which statement best describes the impact of rhetorical
techniques in this excerpt?
This question is incomplete. I was able to find the complete question online. It is the following:
Read the excerpt from Ronald Reagan's "Tear Down This Wall" speech.
I understand the fear of war and the pain of division that afflict this continent-and I pledge to you my country's efforts to help overcome these burdens. To be sure, we in the West must resist Soviet expansion. So we must maintain defenses of unassailable strength. Yet we see peace; so we must strive to reduce arms on both sides.
Which statement best describes the impact of rhetorical techniques in this excerpt?
A. The use of loaded language creates the need for immediate action in Europe.
B. The use of repetition reminds the audience of the obstacles they must defeat.
C. The use of inclusive language emphasizes hope for a better relationship in the future.
D. The use of exclusive language shows the contrast between the two countries.
Answer:
The statement which best describes the impact of rhetorical techniques in the excerpt is:
C. The use of inclusive language emphasizes hope for a better relationship in the future.
Explanation:
Ronald Reagan (1911-2004) was the 40th president of the United States. "Tear Down This Wall" is a speech Reagan gave in West Berlin in 1987. The wall he refers to is the Berlin Wall, built with the purpose of dividing Berlin into two sides: one capitalist, the other socialist.
In the particular excerpt we are analyzing here, Reagan is using inclusive language. That is especially evident when he uses the subject "we". "We" is basically the same as "you and I", which means the president was including the West Berlin when he spoke of the actions that must be taken. It is not "we the United States", it is "we, our countries" working together to bring peace and resist Soviet expansion. With that in mind, we can choose letter C as the best option:
The use of inclusive language emphasizes hope for a better relationship in the future.

What kind of sentence is this? "My little brother is so lazy he just sits around in his pajamas watching cartoons all day."
9) A
character changes as a result of the conflict of the story.
flat
dynamic
foil
static
minor
The correct answer is B. Dynamic.
Explanation
A character is a main or secondary actor in a story, it can be human, animal, supernatural, or another type. In general, the characters have static personalities throughout a story, for example, villains or superheroes who throughout the story are characterized by maintaining their attitude, actions, and speech. On the other hand, there are dynamic characters who change their speech, attitude, and actions as a result of the story, for example when a villain changes his attitude to become good for the events that occurred during the story. So the correct answer is D. Dynamic.

You are Robin / Reena. Yesterday you witnessed a scene of fire in a thickly
populated area. Write an email to your friend describing the experience.
Answer:
Dear Kelly,
I hope you are doing well. I am a little shocked due to an uneventful and scary scene that I witnessed yesterday.
I was working at my office in the Manhattan Financial District when one of the skyscrapers from across the street caught on fire. The flames were on the upper floors, and the smoke was so thick that it was hard for my colleagues and me to breathe. We had to evacuate the building. The worst part was the people screaming for help and the unconscious people that the firefighters rescued from the burning flames. Police were also present to seclude the area, stopping pedestrians from going near the place. Also, there were paramedics carrying people to the ambulances and taking care of them. It was a shocking and scary situation.
Thankfully, no one died, there were only injured people, and the firefighters were able to control the flames preventing them from catching on fire the neighboring buildings.
Have you ever experienced a shocking event? I would like to hear about it.
All the best,
Karl.

Read the excerpt from The Dark Game.
But how would Hall get that telegram? That would take some doing, he admitted. Then Hall remembered Mr. H., one of his trusted operatives. It was Mr. H. who had alerted MI8 to the suspicious activities of Sweden's chargé d'affaires in Mexico City, Folke Cronholm. Sharp-eyed Mr. H. had noticed that Cronholm was making frequent visits to the telegraph office, far more visits than one would expect from a representative of the Swedish government, given the limited relationship between that government and Mexico.
