Answer:
Unlucky
Explanation:
Thesis Statement:
Our local waterways are severely polluted, and actions must be taken to reduce the runoff that contributes to this pollution.
Which of the following is the best example of a topic sentence for an essay with this thesis?
1) Rain gardens are particularly useful near solid surfaces such as parking lots.
2) Rain gardens are located in 30 percent of the residential parkways in Allentown, Ill.
3) Rain gardens include plants and materials that help absorb water into the ground before it is washed into sewers.
4) Rain gardens are a natural way to reduce storm water runoff that pollutes local waterways
Answer:
4
Explanation:
you're starting off the paragraph that connects to the thesis, connecting that it reduces storm water runoff to how actions must be taken to reduce it. 1 is just a statement that to put it somewhere solid, 2 is a too specific fact, and 3 is the explantation. you would want 3 farther in on your paragraph rather than your opener.
which phrase, if used to fill the blank, would give the sentence correct parallel structure?
Answer:
D
Explanation:
A is incorrect because you would not be able to write a good essay/paragraph if your thesis was, "I am a big fan of parties, walkinging on the beach, and to meet new people." because it does not make sense.
B would not work, because while you could write about how you are a big fan of parties, walking on the beach, and I like pandas" it still does not flow right.
C could work, but is not the best option.
"I am a big fan of parties, walking on the beach, and karate is a plus."
D makes the most sense.
"I am a big fan of parties, walking on the beach, and the music of the 1970s."
I am big fan of parties, walking on the beach and the music of 1970's. Hence option D is correct.
What is music?Music is defined as the practice of combining various elements of form, harmony, melody, rhythm, and other expressive content with sound. When words fall short, music fosters societal harmony since it is universally recognized and can be understood by all. Without a doubt, music is a gift that unifies people on a global scale. It is a form of art with a focus on interpersonal relationships.
Similar grammatical structures for similar meaning components inside or across sentences are referred to as "parallelism." If there are several parallel ideas, they should be expressed linguistically in parallel form. Single words should be balanced against single words, single clauses should be weighed against single clauses.
Thus, I am big fan of parties, walking on the beach and the music of 1970's. Hence option D is correct.

Answer:
D. Sentence 1
Explanation:
Topic sentence is pretty much always the first sentence which describes what the paragraph will be about
My class is doing a court case on Tell-tale Heart. I need 15 questions for people in the room. Please read the tell-tale heart then think of questions that could help me win my case against the narrator. Come up with 5 questions that I (the lawyer) could use against the narrator.
If you need different questions from the ones below, let me know and I will try my best to assist.
Questions to use against the narrator:
You yourself entertained the thought that you might be insane, but ultimately brush it aside. You express that you have no reason to kill the man, yet you kill him. This contradiction is proof that while you were insane, you knew what you did was wrong. Why not seek help?
If you truly felt remorse for your actions, why was your first instinct to dispose of the body rather than to immediately confess to your crime?
You spent more than a week setting up this murder. This was not a spur of the moment murder. It was premeditated. Can you justify this? Does this not prove you to be a guilty individual?
You express taking pride in your work. Is this something that a stable, innocent person would do?
Questions for the room:
(I apologize, but I could only come up with ten.)
Is the narrator reliable?
Were his actions justified?
Was his guilt genuine, or was it just an attribute of his psychosis?
Was he truly seeing the ‘evil eye’?
Even if he was, is fear a reason to murder?
Is the beating of the heart evidence of insanity?
He talked about his feelings of power and excitement breaking into the old man’s chamber. Does this not further prove that he should be imprisoned?
Does that not prove that he is not only a murderer, but a person who enjoys the act of killing?
Should a person of this type not be punished and placed where they cannot hurt another person?
This man dismembered a human. If you found a body that had been ripped apart, you would want the person who did it to be put away right?

Read these lines from Emily Dickinson’s poem “A Bird came down the Walk.”
A Bird came down the Walk—
He did not know I saw—
He bit an Angleworm in halves
And ate the fellow, raw,
And then he drank a Dew
From a convenient Grass—
And then hopped sidewise to the Wall
To let a Beetle pass—
He glanced with rapid eyes
That hurried all around—
They looked like frightened Beads, I thought—

Then I smiled because all of the questions were over. The men asked Papa and Mama to read some Italian words from a book, and the official stamped our papers. Then he grinned and said in English, “Welcome to the United States of America!” And in that instant, joy won the fight on Mama’s face.
We were taken to a boat that would sail us across the harbor to the city and a brand new life. As I boarded I smiled up at Lady Liberty who stood tall with her spoon in hand, ready to stir us in.
Which main idea is conveyed in this excerpt?
A.The support of family can make difficult situations easier.
B.True joy is experienced after difficult battles are won.
C. A brand new life can be difficult to get used to.
D. Along with a new start comes the promise of a great future.
help me ASAP!!
Answer:
B
Explanation:
This is how I got my answer:
Process of elimination:
A.In my opinion, the answer could possibly be A. I don't know the full context of this passage, but it could be that A is correct. However, the second paragraph especially gives me the hint that B is more accurate here.
B. In what I understood, this is correct. This is because it is clear that a battle was won here, as they seemed to have been struggling with getting approved to come to America. I think B is correct.
C.Although this may be true, and it may even be true specifically for the rest of this book, the short passage provided gives no negative connotation to it. It is a positive passage, and so the idea of life being difficult was never brought up. This is incorrect.
D. You have to be careful when looking at problems like this, because it's small words that indicate the correct/incorrect answer. The use of the phrase "promise of a great future" guarantees something that will not be true every time. So, this is incorrect.
Let me know if I was correct!
