A Poison Tree
by William Blake
I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I watered it in fears
Night and morning with my tears,
And I sunned it with smiles
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright,
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine,—
And into my garden stole
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning, glad, I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

And I sunned it with smiles
And with soft deceitful wiles.

Many kids want to have social media accounts, but adults worry that
social media access may lead to bullying or put kids into online
situations they don't know how to deal with. Do you think that there
should be an age limit for social media access? Prepare a presentation
to your local parenting group explaining why there should or should not
be an age limit for social media accounts.
Which claim most appropriately responds to the requirements of the prompt?
O A. There should be an age limit for social media accounts, because
nothing you do online can be totally erased, and young kids need
the freedom to experiment offline without creating a permanent
record.
B. There are good arguments on both sides of the debate about kids
and social media, and families and online communities need to
decide for themselves whether to restrict kids' access, allow kids
with supervision, or just let anyone join without checking their age.
C. The Internet can be a chaotic and challenging place, and most
kids do not yet have the maturity to know how to behave in ways
that keep them safe and avoid doing harm to others.
D. The question of age limits for social media services is a new one,
and adults in previous generations never had to decide whether
kids should be allowed to have active social lives online.
Answer:
O A. There should be an age limit for social media accounts, because

Explanation:
what do you consider as your challenges in life?
should religious belief influence law,five paragraph argument.
Explanation:
Whatever we make of the substance of Judge Andrew Rutherford's ruling in the Cornish private hotel case, his citation of a striking and controversial opinion by Lord Justice Laws – delivered in another religious freedom case in 2010 – is worth pausing over. The owners of the Chymorvah hotel were found to have discriminated against a gay couple by refusing them a double-bedded room. They had appealed to their right to manifest their religious belief by running their hotel according to Christian moral standards. Given the drift of recent legal judgments in cases where equality rights are thought to clash with religious freedom rights, it is no surprise that the gay couple won their case.
But quite apart from the merits of the case, judges should be warned off any future reliance on the ill-considered opinions about law and religion ventured last year by Lord Justice Laws. Laws rightly asserted that no law can justify itself purely on the basis of the authority of any religion or belief system: "The precepts of any one religion – any belief system – cannot, by force of their religious origins, sound any louder in the general law than the precepts of any other."
A sound basis for this view is Locke's terse principle, in his Letter on Toleration, that "neither the right nor the art of ruling does necessarily carry with it the certain knowledge of other things; and least of all the true religion".
But Laws seemed to ground the principle instead on two problematic and potentially discriminatory claims. One is that the state can only justify a law on the grounds that it can be seen rationally and objectively to advance the general good (I paraphrase). The question is, seen by whom? What counts as rational, objective and publicly beneficial is not at all self-evident but deeply contested, determined in the cut and thrust of democratic debate and certainly not by the subjective views of individual judges. Religiously inspired political views – such as those driving the US civil rights movement of the 1960s or the Burmese Buddhists today – have as much right to enter that contest as any others. In this sense law can quite legitimately be influenced by religion.
Laws' other claim is that religious belief is, for all except the holder, "incommunicable by any kind of proof or evidence", and that the truth of it "lies only in the heart of the believer". But many non-Christians, for example, recognise that at least some of the claims of Christianity – historical ones, no doubt, or claims about universal moral values – are capable of successful communication to and critical assessment by others. Laws' assertion is also inconsistent with his own Anglican tradition, in which authority has never been seen as based on the subjective opinions of the individual but rather on the claims of "scripture, tradition and reason" acting in concert.
You have been assigned an argumentative writing task where you are to defend the use of body cameras by the local police force.
Which is the BEST example of a precise claim you might make for your argument?
A)
Lots of people think that body cameras are a good idea for the police to
use because they will capture what goes on.
B)
o
Body cameras will record what goes on if a police officer pulls someone
over and forgets to ask for their license and registration.
Body cameras come in many styles and types, but the fact remains that
they are meant to record what goes on when police interact with citizens.
Many think that body cameras are an invasion of privacy, but body cameras
actually will make sure that both citizens and police interact appropriately
with each other more often.
D)
Answer: B) Body cameras will record what goes on if a police officer pulls someone over and forgets to ask for their license and registration.
Explanation:
Precise claims give more credence to arguments because they improve the practicability of the argument being made as opposed to vague assertions that may be open to interpretation.
In giving the precise claim about how body cameras help in the case of an officer forgetting to ask about a person's license and registration, the argument gives a real life use of body cameras that is specific and will therefore help build the argument of why body cams are important.
Answer:
The correct answer is D) Many think that body cameras are an invasion of privacy, but body cameras actually will make sure that both citizens and police interact appropriately with each other more often.

2. How does Denby's description of the male villain in paragraph 2 differ from that of the female villain in
the first paragraph?
Denbys second paragraph
Answer:
For Dendy, the female villain is based on aggressive speech, while the male villain is based on aggressive actions.
Explanation:
Dendy describes the female villains in aggressive lines, which aims to demoralize and provoke bad feelings through words. Although these villains care about how they look and how individuals perceive them, acts of villainy are based mainly on words, with a lot of sarcasm and demoralization.
On the other hand, male routes focus on violent actions, promoting more physical acts and with more visible, impacting effects that can disturb more than one person.

- Compound
- Disjunction
Explanation:
A sentence is said to be a simple sentence if it has one subject and one predicate and it usually has a complete thought.
No. 2 is a simple sentence and a conjunction. It is a conjunction because of the word "that" which is used to introduce the woman.
A sentence is said to be a compound sentence when it has at least two independent clauses which are connected by semicolon, conjunction or comma.
No. 1 is a compound sentence and a conditional sentence. It is conditional because of the use of the word, "if".
No. 3 is a compound sentence and a disjunction. It is disjunction because of the word "or" that was used. Disjunction uses the word "or" to separate clauses.

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
by Robert Louis Stevenson
Part 1
1. Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance, that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary, and yet somehow lovable. At friendly meetings, and when the wine was to his taste, something eminently human beaconed from his eye; something indeed which never found its way into his talk, but which spoke not only in these silent symbols of the after-dinner face, but more often and loudly in the acts of his life. He was austere with himself; drank gin when he was alone, to mortify a taste for vintages; and though he enjoyed the theatre, had not crossed the doors of one for twenty years. But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in their misdeeds; and in any extremity inclined to help rather than to reprove.
2. "I incline to, Cain's heresy*," he used to say. "I let my brother go to the devil in his quaintly 'own way.'" In this character, it was frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of down-going men. And to such as these, so long as they came about his chambers, he never marked a shade of change in his demeanour.
3. No doubt the feat was easy to Mr. Utterson; for he was undemonstrative at the best, and even his friendship seemed to be founded in a similar catholicity of good-nature. It is the mark of a modest man to accept his friendly circle ready-made from the hands of opportunity; and that was the lawyer's way. His friends were those of his own blood or those whom he had known the longest; his affections, like ivy, were the growth of time, they implied no aptness in the object. Hence, no doubt, the bond that united him to Mr. Richard Enfield, his distant kinsman, the well-known man about town. It was a nut to crack for many, what these two could see in each other, or what subject they could find in common. It was reported by those who encountered them in their Sunday walks, that they said nothing, looked singularly dull, and would hail with obvious relief the appearance of a friend. For all that, the two men put the greatest store by these excursions, counted them the chief jewel of each week, and not only set aside occasions of pleasure, but even resisted the calls of business, that they might enjoy them uninterrupted.
*The biblical story of Cain and Abel is a story about two brothers who gave offerings to God. Abel's offering was accepted by God, but Cain's was not. Jealous, Cain killed his brother. When God asked Cain where Abel was, Cain said, Am I my brother's keeper? By saying this, Cain implied that what his brother did was his own business. (Genesis 4:1-16)
When Mr. Utterson says that he "inclines to Cain's heresy," this reveals that he is
A non-confrontational
B extravagant
C non-judgmental
D merciful
Answer:
A. non-confrontational
