Explanation:
Plagiarism can be defined as the act of representing or using an author's work, ideas, thoughts, language, or expressions without their consent, acknowledgement or authorization.
This ultimately implies that, plagiarism is an illegal act of presenting another author's intellectual work or copyrighted items by using their ideas, thoughts, language or expressions, word for word without authorization or permission from the original author.
Hence, in order to avoid the charge of plagiarism, it is very important and necessary you use citations. The two (2) main types of citation are;
I. Works-cited list: it is the same thing as a reference and are placed at the end of a literary work.
II. In-text citations: they are inserted into the body of a literary work i.e within the body of the texts using parenthesis.
One important thing that citations show a reader is that the information is well researched.
This simply means that, citations are references or links to all of the sources from which an author, writer, or researcher got his or her information from.

Answer:
Transitions are very important when it come to essays, especially compare and contrast essays. If the transitions weren’t in the essay, then the essay would just be a bunch of un-organized words. For example, if I were to be in the middle of my essay and say ‘Cyberbullying is picking on someone continually through the internet. Bullying is continually picking on someone and calling them names in real life,” well that just doesn’t make sense. You can’t tell that I am trying to compare and contrast. I’m just stating facts. Now what if I said ‘cyberbullying is when you continually pick on someone through a screen, unlike bullying, which is the same thing, but without a screen.’ Do you see how much better it is?

Hello. You forgot to show part A of the question and forgot to enter the answer options.
Part A shows the main theme of the poem which is "Young soldiers don’t know what they’re getting into when they sign up for war." The response options in Part B are:
A. “What a smile! One large lamp for a face,/smaller lanterns where skin stretches over” ( Lines 1-2)
B. “involuntary shudders/when someone, somewhere, steps over/his shallow, unmarked, mass grave.” ( Lines 10-12)
C. “But his smile remains undimmed/ inviting, not knowing what hit him,” ( Lines 13-14)
D. “and a face just like/his figures like him to stop all action/ with a flick of finger on the trigger.” ( Lines 16-18)
Answer:
C. “But his smile remains undimmed/ inviting, not knowing what hit him,” (Lines 13-14)
Explanation:
This question is about the poem "Boy Soldier." The poem shows that the boys summoned to the war have no idea what they will face, are not well trained and do not imagine the terror of a battlefield. Even so, their enlistment is accepted with an inviting smile, as if they are going to have a wonderful and constructive experience.

Steward James Johnson felt he knew just what it was. He recognized the kind of shudder a ship gives when she drops a propeller blade, and he knew this sort of mishap meant a trip back to the Harland & Wolff shipyard at Belfast – with plenty of free time to enjoy the hospitality of the port.
Somebody near him agreed and sang out cheerfully, ‘Another Belfast trip!’
In the galley just to the stern, chief night baker Walter Belford was making rolls for the following day. (The honour of baking fancy pastry was reserved for the day shift.) When the jolt came, it impressed Belford more strongly than steward Johnson – perhaps because a pan of new rolls clattered off the top of the oven and scattered about the floor.
The passengers in their cabins felt the jar too, and tried to connect it with something familiar. Marguerite Frolicher, a young Swiss girl accompanying her father on a business trip, woke up with a start. Half-asleep, she could think only of the little white lake ferries at Zurich making a sloppy landing. Softly she said to herself, ‘Isn’t it funny … we’re landing!’
What can you infer about each character based on their reaction to the loud noise they just heard?
Steward James Johnson
Night Baker Walter Belford
Marguerite Frolicher
Answer:
You can infer that they did not understand what was happening. They were almost in a trance, you could say. They didn't realize the severity of the situation.
Explanation:
Is this what you were looking for??? I hope it is right. I would put this and then just ad a small detail about each character. Hope this helped :))
Answer:
You can infer that each character has had different experiences with ships and therefore have different perspectives of what the loud noise was. As a Steward, James Johnson knows the most about the ship compared to the three of them, and connects the sound to a mishap of the ship and thinks that it means they have to make a trip to Belfast. Night Baker Walter Welford was startled by the noise because the jolt that accompanied it caused a pan of rolls to fall off the top of the oven. Marguerite Frolicher connects the noise to something familiar to her- ferries making a sloppy landing.

Montresor acts as judge and executioner in this story. Explain whether you think individuals are ever justified in taking justice into their own hands?
Most people remember Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as reformers who practiced non-violent forms of protest and advocacy. Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a wave of change that was long overdue. But the practice of non-violent protest, or civil disobedience, started long before either Gandhi or King. It began with a quiet, shy poet who is best known for writing a lot about a pond.
Henry David Thoreau lived from 1817 until 1862, mainly in the area of Concord, Massachusetts. The issue that would tear the country apart in the 1860s had already begun dividing the nation. Thoreau was only 14 when Nat Turner led the slave rebellion in Virginia and was later hanged. In his late 20s, Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public, echoing the voices of freedmen like Frederick Douglass and Lewis Hayden.
Thoreau believed that a government that supported slavery was corrupt and immoral. He was also deeply suspicious of government. For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person. It was basically a tax on one's body. After not paying for years, he was at last arrested. He spent only one night in jail, however, as a relative paid the tax for him. He was reportedly furious that any tax was paid on his behalf.
It was this experience that Thoreau wrote about in an essay called "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, he argued that being moral and just came before allegiance to government. He wrote "If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." He also felt that voting was not enough to ensure that the right thing be done. He wrote that "even voting for the right is doing nothing for it A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance " He felt that one had a moral responsibility to resist unjust laws.
What is the main idea of the bolded paragraph? (5 points)
The last one is bolded
a

part 1: okay so tradition is dangerous to society because of the conflict between other communities. Tradition comes with practices, beliefs, religions, and if certain communities become intertwined with each other such as Christianity and Atheism; (real world example) because while one believes in a certain God, the other doesn't at all. Worldwide, both of these communities have way different practices. This causes so much conflict as they have to do with the same topics.

6. defiant
b) If you say that someone is defiant, you mean they show aggression or independence by refusing to obey someone.
c) "the kids I babysit are defiant"
part 2: there isn't a text included so I can't answer these. I can do 6. though
6.

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of The Prince.
But when cities or countries are accustomed to live under a prince, and his family is exterminated, they, being on the one hand accustomed to obey and on the other hand not having the old prince, cannot agree in making one from amongst themselves, and they do not know how to govern themselves. For this reason they are very slow to take up arms, and a prince can gain them to himself and secure them much more easily. But in republics there is more vitality, greater hatred, and more desire for vengeance, which will never permit them to allow the memory of their former liberty to rest; so that the safest way is to destroy them or to reside there.
Which option best states the main idea of the passage?
Former republics are more difficult to rule than hereditary states, and they will rebel if they are not tightly controlled.
The strategies for controlling hereditary states and former republics are the same.
Hereditary states come with a history that must be deeply understood if a new prince is to control them easily.
Hereditary states never forget their former loyalties, so they are hard to control.
Answer:
A. Former republics are more difficult to rule than hereditary states, and they will rebel if they are not tightly controlled.
