According to the text, what is one way that Slat and Wilson approach the problem of dealing with plastic waste in oceans differently?
Slat refutes the idea that plastics harm ocean environments; Wilson believes plastics may benefit ocean environments in some ways.
Slat deals with the plastic that has already accumulated; Wilson wants to eliminate the use of plastics altogether.
Slat feels the plastic problem can be solved by engineers; Wilson feels the problem can be solved by legislation.
Slat estimates plastics can be eliminated from the oceans in a few years; Wilson thinks plastics are impossible to eliminate from the oceans.
Answer:
B). Slat deals with the plastic that has already accumulated; Wilson wants to eliminate the use of plastics altogether.
Explanation:
As per the text, the difference in Slat and Wilson's approach to deal with the problem of plastic waste accumulation in the oceans is that 'Slat focuses on dealing with the plastic that has been accumulated already while Wilson aims to eliminate the complete use of plastics altogether.' Slat promotes the 'idea of affixing an array of floating barriers and platforms to the seabed' which reflects that he lays emphasis on dealing with the current waste while Wilson promotes 'the complete restriction on the use of plastic goods so there would be no more plastics to deal with.' Thus, option B is the correct answer.
Answer:
Slat deals with the plastic that has already accumulated; Wilson wants to eliminate the use of plastics altogether.

Read the excerpt from "The Seven Voyages of Sindbad the Sailor." "Oh!" replied Sindbad, "do not imagine that I am so unjust as to blame you. On the contrary, I understand your situation and can pity you. Only you appear to be mistaken about me, and I wish to set you right. You doubtless imagine that I have acquired all the wealth and luxury that you see me enjoy without difficulty or danger, but this is far indeed from being the case. I have only reached this happy state after having for years suffered every possible kind of toil and danger.Which details from the text best support the central idea? Select two options.
Answer:
You appear to be mistaken about me
I wish to set you right.
Explanation:
Based on the given passage, Sinbad finds out that his situation has been misunderstood by the reader because the reader erroneously thinks that everything Sinbad acquired was without stress or hardwork.
As a result of this, Sinbad wants to explain himself so he won't be misunderstood.
The sentences "You appear to be mistaken about me" and "I wish to set you right." most clearly support the central idea.

Vera is the first character who speaks in the story. Keeping direct characterization techniques in mind, write a 75- to 100-word description of Vera. Use details from the story to support your answer.
This question is related to the short story "The Open Window"
Answer:
Vera is a country girl, but instead of showing country and naive traits, Vera shows herself to be a very polite, controlled and centered girl. This can be seen right when she meets Mr. Frampton Nuttel, at the beginning of the story. However, despite these positive qualities, in the course of the plot, Vera shows herself to be an astute, malicious and very intelligent girl.
Vera is not really a villain, but she is quite manipulative and manages to hit Mr. Frampton Nuttel squarely with his subterfuge. We can understand that she does this to have a distraction from the monotonous life of the countryside and to rule her control and intelligence in someone weaker.
Answer:
Vera is a 15-year-old girl who has an overactive imagination and is a good actress. She keeps acting even when her uncle and his companions return from hunting. The narrator describes Vera’s reaction:
Framton shivered slightly and turned towards the niece with a look intended to convey sympathetic comprehension. The child was staring out through the open window with a dazed horror in her eyes.
Vera is able to fool her own family as well as Framton. She explains Framton’s sudden departure:
"I expect it was the spaniel," said the niece calmly; "he told me he had a horror of dogs.”

identify the boodfaced noun as common abstract concrete compound or collective courage of lion
The correct answer is B. Abstract
Explanation:
Abstract nouns such as the nouns love, courage, or hope represent ideas that are not tangible; this is the opposite of a concrete noun, which includes words such as table, mountain, or park because these can be perceived through the senses. In this context, the word "courage" can be classified as an abstract noun. Also, this is not a proper noun because it does not refer to a specific person such as the noun Paul, and it is not a compound noun because it does not include two or more words.

An---------- is a work of fiction in which the symbols characters and event come to represent in a somewhat point by point fashion, a different metaphysical political or social situation
Answer:
Allegory.
Explanation:
An allegory is a literary device that is used to reveal a hidden meaning through the use of symbols and characters as representing ideas or themes. It allows an author to address life morals, personal elements, or even political or religious themes.
The characters and symbols in the story are used to represent the themes that the author wants to bring or relay to the readers. Therefore, an allegory is a fictional work of literature that uses events, symbols, and characters to represent a somewhat point by point fashion, a different metaphysical, social, religious, or even political situations.
Some examples of allegorical works are "The Pilgrim's Progress" by John Bunyan, "The Chronicles of Narnia" by C. S. Lewis.
