URGENT. PLS HELPPP. Brainliest to first to answer
Read the passage below:


It is estimated that around four billion trees are cut down each year to make paper. Perhaps that number would have been acceptable 20 years ago, but, in this day and age, it's unacceptable. What makes today so different than 20 years ago? The digital revolution. With everything from medical files, to newspapers, and textbooks offered on digital platforms, why should we continue to destroy the natural environment for the sake of making paper? Governments should make laws limiting paper manufacturers in order to end a practice that is wasteful, destroys rainforests, and harms the environment.


Which statement reflects the writer's position?



a) It is estimated that around four billion trees are cut down each year to make paper.


b) Governments should make laws limiting paper manufacturers.


c) Why should we continue to destroy the natural environment for the sake of making paper?

Provide an original example of a free verse stanza of poetry. Identify why your poem would be considered free verse.

Answers

Answer:

some thing with no ryhmeing or on pattern

Explanation:

Walking around and saw a cat with a hat on the sidewalk.

it seems so sad and glum.

I pick it up hoping for joy for that it may run.

The sun goes down the cat still in frowns.

Then I let it down away it goes back on the sidewalk alone in sound.

That’s the best I can think of but the reason this poem is free verse is because it has no rules or rhythm to follow by.

How does ice affect water systems?

Answers

If ice comes into contact with water, we know the ice must be below 0 degrees Celsius and the water must be higher than 0 degrees Celsius. Because of the difference in temperatures, heat transfer will occur. The result will be that the water will decrease in temperature and the ice will increase in temperature.

Answers

Answer:

Kipling believed the "White Man's burden" was the duty of white men to bring education and salvation to people around the world that he deemed uncivilized. Many people, including people of color and anti-imperialists, have called this concept racist.In "The White Man's Burden", Kipling encouraged American colonization and annexation of the Philippine Islands, a Pacific Ocean archipelago conquered in the three-month Spanish–American War (1898).[1] As a poet of imperialism, Kipling exhorts the American reader and listener to take up the enterprise of empire, yet warns about the personal costs faced, endured, and paid in building an empire;[1] nonetheless, American imperialists understood the phrase "the white man’s burden" to justify imperial conquest as a mission-of-civilisation that is ideologically related to the continental-expansion philosophy of manifest destiny of the early 19th century.As though coming at the most opportune time possible, you might say just before the treaty reached the Senate, or about the time it was sent to us, there appeared in one of our magazines a poem by Rudyard Kipling, the greatest poet of England at this time. This poem, unique, and in some places too deep for me, is a prophecy. I do not imagine that in the history of human events any poet has ever felt inspired so clearly to portray our danger and our duty. It is called "The White Man’s Burden." With the permission of Senators I will read a stanza, and I beg Senators to listen to it, for it is well worth their attention. This man has lived in the Indies. In fact, he is a citizen of the world, and has been all over it, and knows whereof he speaks.Senator Tillman's eloquence was unpersuasive, and the US Congress ratified the Treaty of Paris on 11 February 1899, formally ending the Spanish–American War. After paying a post-war indemnification of twenty million dollars to the Kingdom of Spain, on 11 April 1899, the US established geopolitical hegemony upon islands and peoples in two oceans and in two hemispheres: the Philippine Islands and Guam in the Pacific Ocean,[9][6] and Cuba and Puerto Rico in the Atlantic Ocean.[10]

Summarize the events of scenes four and five in one paragraph.(anne frank)

Answers

Answer:

One night, Anne wakes up everyone in the attic with her screams.

She's had a nightmare about the Nazis coming to take her away.

It seems totally normal to us that her fears would manifest in this way, but everyone in the attic short of her parents seems more than a little annoyed by this.

Mr. Dussel even locks himself in the bathroom; he's so angry.

We see Anne's parents concerned and helpless for their young daughter who has to deal with the ugly realities of war and death.

They are afraid for her as well as for themselves.

Anne's request for her father's comfort after the nightmare, rather than her mother's, provides more fuel for a conflict that appears to be escalating.

Mrs. Frank's feelings are extremely hurt, and Anne knows this but can't figure out how to make things work with her mom.

What THEME is most clearly suggested by Natalie Babbitt through the Tucks’ experiences?
Tuck everlasting

Answers

Answer:

Love

Explanation:

The last important theme is that of love. Winnie came to love the Tucks and through her experiences with them, she came to understand some very important ideas about life. In turn, she came to appreciate and love her parents and her Grandmother even more, because she understood why they treated her as they.

(thats what I put)

The Tucks are simple-appearing people, but they conceal a great secret. The toad on the road that just won't get out of the way might have lived for seventy years or more. The woods near town might conceal a spring that can make you immortal.

The events of Tuck Everlasting do not happen on a grand scale - instead, this is a tale about a young girl who discovers a major mystery and fights to keep it secret. The novel is set in the countryside of the late 1800s, and all the characters are ordinary people. However, the fact that these incredible supernatural events happen to be hidden in such an ordinary little community suggest that magical things might be hidden in everyday people and places.

Read this excerpt from "A Student's Guide to Global Climate Change."

Climate change might allow some infectious diseases to spread. As winter temperatures increase, ticks and mosquitoes that carry diseases can survive longer throughout the year and expand their ranges, putting more people at risk. One big concern is malaria, a deadly disease spread by mosquitoes in many hot, humid parts of the world.

What can people do about it?
People should take common-sense steps to avoid tick and mosquito bites, and communities can take actions to control mosquitoes, such as removing sources of standing water. It's also important for doctors to know the symptoms of diseases that could be spreading to new areas so they can diagnose and treat their patients.

What is most likely the reason the writer uses a problem-solution structure in this excerpt?

to present the problem of increases in mosquito and tick life spans
to inform people about what they can do as insects become more harmful
to make people and doctors aware of the disease risks caused by insects
to show how climate change can result in the spread of infectious diseases

Answers

i think the best answer for this question would be “to show how climate change can result in the spread of infectious diseases”
