Answer:Despite technical breakthroughs and scientific discoveries that lead us to assume we have little in common with the rest of the animal world, whether we recognize it or not, we are still a member of the planet's fauna. Needless to mention, when humanity's greatest achievements were the invention of a round wheel or specific agricultural implements, humans were dependent on nature and paid attention to changes in its course (George 24). With the technological revolutions and discoveries that have shaped our previous history, we appear to pay little attention to nature, becoming increasingly estranged from it on a daily basis. However, our ties to nature cannot be severed. There are several important reasons why individuals should aim to engage with nature more than they do now.

Explanation:

Answer:

Despite the technological advances and scientific inventions that make us believe we have nothing in common with the rest of the animal kingdom, we are still part of the planet’s fauna, whether we realize it or not. Needless to say, back when humanity’s main achievements were the invention of a round wheel, or specific tools for farming agriculture, human beings were dependent on nature and paid attention to the changes of its course (George 24). Now, with technological revolutions and discoveries that made up our past history, we seem to pay little attention to nature, getting more and more disconnected from it every day. However, the links we have with nature cannot disappear. There are a number of key reasons in favor of the concept that people should try to connect with nature more than they do today.Nature has historically been the home for human beings, just like it remains a home for animals and plants (with the exception of those that are kept in zoos and greenhouses). Nature is able to show us true beauty without modifications, exaggerations, and falseness. After all, is it not ironic how people go to galleries and exhibitions to look at paintings of colorful flowers, mighty woods, green hills, and fast clear streams; those simple beauties can easily be observed in real life outside of the urban environment which looms around them. Or the fact people purchase recordings of calming sounds of nature, like what you would hear at night in the woods—a damped quavering of an owl, a ringing flare of crickets, and the sonorous rustle of bushes. What we are in fact doing is trying to deceive our minds and make ourselves believe we are in the woods, next to those owls, crickets, and bushes, while we are instead trapped inside our tiny, well-furnished, and packed-with-technology apartment.

Read the excerpts from "Flowers for Algernon."

We had a lot of fun at the factory today. Joe Carp said hey look where Charlie had his operashun what did they do Charlie put some brains in. I was going to tell him but I remembered Dr Strauss said no. Then Frank Reilly said what did you do Charlie forget your key and open your door the hard way. That made me laff. Their really my friends and they like me.

***

I didn't know what to do or where to turn. Everyone was looking at me and laughing and I felt naked. I wanted to hide. I ran outside and I threw up. Then I walked home. It's a funny thing I never knew that Joe and Frank and the others liked to have me around all the time to make fun of me.

What conclusion can be drawn about Charlie based on his description of the events in these passages?

He becomes too trusting of other people’s motives after the operation.
He no longer wants to connect with others as he becomes smarter.
He no longer cares if other people like him after the operation.
He better understands the behavior of others as he becomes smarter.

Read the excerpt from "Object Lesson, Part 1."

"Hardly. They didn't know you were coming." They had betrayed her, the sick shock in her voice said. "Class, this is Ellery Queen. I don't have to tell you who Mr. Queen is, and how honored we are to have him visit us." There was a gasp, a buzz, a spatter of applause, "Mr. Queen was kind enough to come here today to give us a talk on crime. I didn't know he was going to walk in on one."

This information supports the prediction that

Ellery will influence Miss Carpenter's students.
another crime will take place in Miss Carpenter's classroom.
this will be the last time Miss Carpenter asks Ellery for crime-solving help.
Miss Carpenter will be determined to address her students' criminal behavior.

Please help. I hate my teacher.

Read the excerpt from "Don't Look Down." Then select two sentences that provide evidence that the narrator's attitude toward the ballet lesson is changing.
What is the answer?

The Curse of the Bambino

(1) On December 26, 1919, the owner of the Boston Red Sox, Harry Frazee, made a decision that would haunt fans of the club for 86 years. He sold his best player, Babe Ruth, to the New York Yankees. This transaction marked the beginning of the "Curse of the Bambino." The Curse of the Bambino was the belief that, because the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth, they would never win another World Series.
(2) Ruth helped the Red Sox win the World Series in 1915, 1916, and 1918. However, his demands for a higher salary and his poor attitude caused Frazee to look for a chance to trade him. He chose an offer from the Yankees to sell Ruth for cash.
(3) Unfortunately for the Red Sox, Ruth would go on to become the greatest player in the history of the game. After purchasing Ruth, the Yankees would go on to become the most successful baseball club in history. They won their 26th World Series title in 2000.
(4) However, the worst part of the curse was that the Red Sox came very close to winning the championship several times but suffered heartbreaking losses. For Sox fans, seeing their team suffer heartbreaking losses was worse than the fate of teams like the Chicago Cubs, who were usually too bad to even get close.
(5) Finally, in 2004, Red Sox fans were rewarded for their loyalty. The Red Sox were able to defeat their rivals, the Yankees, to advance to the World Series. Then, they easily defeated the St. Louis Cardinals. While Red Sox fans suffered for 86 years, they would say that their victory in 2004 was sweeter because they had longed for it for so many years.

Which of the following sentences would best introduce paragraph 4?
A.
At least the Red Sox were still a good team for many of those years.
B.
Meanwhile, the Red Sox failed to win a single title since the day they sold Ruth.
C.
In addition, Roger Clemens won a Cy Young award for both the Red Sox and the Yankees.
D.
The Yankees and Red Sox now have a historic rivalry.

Which of these is an example of an unsuccessful emotional appeal?
1.Against keeping wild animals as pets: Wild animals can be . . . well, wild! I was playing with our pet raccoon when it suddenly turned on me and bit my arm and hand. Today, 18 stitches and a series of rabies shots later, I'm here to tell you that because wild animals are unpredictable they do not make good pets!
2.In support of repopulating deserts with trees: Replanting trees in devastated areas means that someone someday will have a completely different place to live in or visit--one that is healthy and thriving, and beautiful, too. Will you plant trees today to make a better tomorrow for your children and grandchildren?
3.In support of retraining homeless people: When you provide the homeless everything--food, shelter, clothing, etc., you squelch their desire to take care of themselves, as well as the need to change their situation. Instead, they are treated like babies. Because of this treatment, they are forced into need and dependence--and ultimately, hopelessness. Consider Aaron, a homeless man, who took his own life because he was in so much pain from living in below-freezing temperatures for many years.
4.In support of taking swimming lessons: Whether it's a swimming pool, a lake, a pond, or the local water park, you know you can keep yourself afloat if you happen to find yourself in deep water. But not only that, you might need to save someone else's life as well. On two separate occasions, I have helped kids in trouble in a wave pool. If I had not known how to swim, I would have been clinging helplessly to a tube. In fact, I would have been so focused on my own safety that I wouldn't even have noticed the kids who needed help.

why is this poem the biggest piece of junk on the planet it makes no sense

The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!
