Excerpt from Run with the Horseman Ferrol Sams The family was poor. It was "poor but proud." The confused boy grew up thinking one should be proud of being poor. One of the in-laws slipped around occasionally and made liquor. He had plenty of cash, did not read books, and was tolerated but not admired. A cousin had surrendered to the boll weevil, moved out of the county, and bought Coca-Cola stock. He was rich, but there was unspoken disdain for him because he had left the land. The grandparents told horror stories of having to boil dirt from under the smokehouse to retrieve salt after the Yankees had been on the land. They had learned to eat a weed called poke salad as a means of survival in those days, a custom that they passed on as a springtime ritual of communion to their descendants. Things apparently got a little better for awhile, but then the Great Depression hit the South like aftershock from the earthquake of Reconstruction, and the children knew poverty firsthand. They also, however, knew pride. No one in the county had any money to spend, and there was a security of blood that transcended the possession of material things. When one is convinced that one is to the manor born, the actual physical condition of the manor itself is of negligible importance.
Which best expresses the irony present in this passage?
A) It is ironic that the family is poor, yet still is proud.
B) It is ironic that one of the in-laws in the family slipped around occasionally and made liquor.
C) It is ironic that one of the boy's relatives had moved out of the county, bought Coca-Cola stock, and become rich.
D) It is ironic that they boy's family had learned to eat a weed called poke salad as a means of survival after the Civil War

Explanation:
"Psalms" is one of the 66 books in the Bible of the Christian faith. They contain songs or praise and worship which are mostly written by David, the then king of Israel.
The name "Psalm' is derived from a Greek translation, "psalmoi" meaning "instrumental music, or words accompanying the music". The psalms of the Bible are also lyrical songs of praise that can be sung or recited as verses. The presence of musical words, notes and the very nature of the lyrics shows that there are some patterns, rhythm or even meter in the Psalms.

Read the lyrics from Natalie Merchant's song "Wonder."
with love, with patience and with faith
she'll make her way
How might these words have inspired the author of the novel Wonder?
They may have made the author decide that August's mother should have only two children, because raising a lot of children is hard work.
They may have inspired the author to make August's character have to be homeschooled and his sister's character be able to go to a regular school.
They may have made the author decide that August's character should be a boy to avoid any confusion between the novel and the song.
They may have inspired the author to make August's character strong enough to face the challenges of a new school with the loving support of his family.
Answer:
They may have inspired the author to make August's character strong enough to face the challenges of a new school with the loving support of his family
Explanation:
it seems most accurate
Answer:
In Natalie Merchant's song Wonder, she sings about a girl who will make her way "with love, with patience, and with faith". These very words may have inspired the author to make the young boy Auggie's character strong enough to be able to overcome the challenges that he will face in the new school. Added to that, the support of his loving family members, even his own sister Olivia will also help him face the challenges. So yes it may have influenced the author to make August's personality strong enough to face challenges

How can I tell the difference between complete sentences and run - on sentences ?
Answer:
A run-on sentence occurs when two or more independent clauses (also known as complete sentences) are connected improperly. eg. : I would write one every day if I had the time. One common type of run-on sentence is a comma splice. A comma splice occurs when two independent clauses are joined with just a comma.
Hope that helps. x
Explanation:
One of the easiest ways to tell is try reading the sentence out loud. You shouldn't be running out of breath reading a sentence. Another way is when there is a new point being made, or a slight change in the topic or subject, and there is a period, or comma missing, that would be a run on sentence.

What do you mean by Citizen?A citizen is a person who legitimately resides in a nation and is accorded that nation's privileges and protections
Women should be regarded as having the same value as males. We should provide young females with the same possibilities for school and other pursuits that we do for boys. Men and women would have healthier relationships if women's rights were improved, and society as a whole would be better.
Men are more analytical, intellectual, and logical. Women are more comprehensive, integrative, intuitive, and creative. The expressing of feelings in their presence might make men feel quite threatened since they have a much harder time connecting with their own feelings.

Read the text The History of Ice Cream:
(1) I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! Who doesn't love a nice, cold scoop of ice cream on a warm day? For thousands of years, ice cream has been a decadent dessert loved by most people around the world.
(2) There is some argument about who first invented ice cream. Some believe that ice cream was invented by the Chinese people anywhere from 2,000 to 6,000 years ago. They created a recipe of frozen milk and rice that was served as a dessert. Persia has also been credited with first serving frozen desserts. Over 2,000 years ago, the wealthy people of Persia enjoyed shaved ice from the mountains, covered with grape juice. They later learned to freeze rosewater and add different fruit toppings. These desserts were considered delicacies that only the richest families could experience. About 1,000 years after this, there is evidence that suggested Nero, the Roman Emperor, also enjoyed frozen treats and demanded that a constant supply of ice from the mountains be available to him. He liked to add honey to the top of his dessert.
(3) Ice cream as we know it can be traced back to the 9th century in Arab cities, such as Baghdad, Damascus, and Cairo. Near the end of the 13th century, Marco Polo returned to Italy after his travels through China with news of a frozen creamed dessert. In Europe, ice cream could only be found in Italy. Then, in 1533, Italian noblewoman Catherine de'Medici of Italy married Henry II of France. As Queen, Catherine introduced ice cream to France. Soon, the popularity of the dessert spread across all of Europe.
(4) The first recorded account of ice cream in the United States was in 1744. In a written letter, a guest of Maryland Governor William Bladen detailed a delicious frozen dessert featuring strawberries and milk. The invention of electricity and manufacturing meant that ice cream could be made and kept much more easily, and the popularity of the frozen treat grew quickly across the country.
(5) To start, ice cream was served in a dish. It wasn't until the late 19th century that the ice cream cone made its first appearance. As with ice cream itself, there has always been some controversy over who the true inventor of the ice cream cone was. It is claimed that in 1896, a man by the name of Italo Marchiony invented the ice cream cone in New York City. He was granted a patent for this cup-shaped invention in 1903. Then, in 1904, ice cream was served in a true conical-shaped cone by Ernest Hamwi at the St. Louis World Fair. Whoever the true inventor was, the discovery caught on, and by 1924, Americans were eating over 200 million ice cream cones a year!
Read the text "How Ice Cream Is Made":
Ice cream is a frozen blend of sweetened cream and air with added flavoring. This is how it is made commercially.
Necessary Ingredients:
Dairy products, including milk, cream, and butter fat
Sugar
Eggs
Flavoring
Approved additives to prevent ice crystals during production process
Production Steps:
Step 1: To start, the ingredients are carefully measured and then combined together. The dairy ingredients, solids, and additives are blended well to ensure the liquid and dry components are completely mixed.
Step 2: Next, the mix is pasteurized. This means it is heated to high temperatures to remove any bacteria which could be found in the raw ingredients. Pasteurization can occur at 155°F for 30 minutes or 175°F for 25 seconds. The temperatures used to pasteurize ice cream need to be higher than those used for milk because the mixture includes high-fat dairy sources, sweeteners, and egg yolks.
Step 3: Following pasteurization, the ice cream mix is homogenized. This occurs when the fat globules in the cream are broken down into smaller parts through vigorous mixing. Once homogenized, the ice cream should be very smooth and uniform, meaning free of bubbles. Now the ice cream will be easier to whip and will not melt as fast.
Step 4: The next step is to let the ice cream mixture stand for at least four hours. During this time, the fat cools and forms crystals.
Step 5: A special barrel freezer is then used to gradually freeze the ice cream. The machine also pumps clean air into the mix. This keeps the ice cream soft and allows it to absorb the different flavorings. Without the air, the mixture would become as hard as an ice cube.
Step 6: During freezing, flavoring can be added. Ice cream flavors have moved on from plain vanilla and chocolate to include hundreds of combinations using fruit, nuts, candy, cookies, and other baked goods.
Step 7: Finally, the ice cream is packaged and put into a blast freezer where the temperature is between -22 to -40 Fahrenheit.
How does paragraph 4 of The History of Ice Cream relate to Step 7 of "How Ice Cream Is Made"?
Answer:
The paragraph 4 and step 7 relate to how electricity made the packing and storing of ice cream easier.
Explanation:
Step 7 says ".. ice cream is packaged and put into a blast freezer." This relates to paragraph 4 by the statement "The invention of electricity and manufacturing meant that ice cream could be made and kept much more easily.

Claim: Wolves no longer need protection.
Tension exists between the ranchers who feel threatened by wolves and the conservationists who want to see wolves protected. Many ranchers want to remove federal protections for the gray wolves. They want to allow hunting again. They point to increased wolf populations in several states. Numbers have grown from under 1,000 to more than 5,000. The increase has led to more wolf attacks on sheep and cattle. Conservationists say that current wolf packs and populations are not at all stable. They point to the fact that wolves neared extinction before laws protecting them were enacted. Allowing hunting could eliminate the gains.
In 3 to 5 sentences, explain whether the author's evidence is relevant and sufficient to support the claim. Explain how the author could make the paragraph stronger.
