Answer:
Michelle and Suri is the simple subject in the following sentence
Read the excerpts from The Namesake.
Excerpt 1: He is afraid to be Nikhil, someone he doesn’t know. Who doesn’t know him. His parents tell him that they each have two names, too, as do all their Bengali friends in America, and all their relatives in Calcutta. It’s a part of growing up, they tell him, part of being a Bengali.
Excerpt 2: It is nothing like the schooling Gogol’s parents have known, fountain pens and polished black shoes and notebooks and good names and sir or madam at a tender age. Here the only official ritual is pledging allegiance first thing in the morning to the American flag.
Which statement best tells how the conflict in the first excerpt is similar to the conflict in the second excerpt?
A. Gogol’s experience of growing up in an American culture conflicts with his parents’ experience of growing up in India.
B. Gogol’s desire to have two names like his parents conflicts with his parents’ desire for him to adopt American customs.
C. Gogol’s fear of attending American school conflicts with his parents’ excitement about the new experiences he will have.
D. Gogol’s wish to return to India where his relatives live conflicts with his parents’ wishes to start a new life in America.
Answer:
A. Gogol’s experience of growing up in an American culture conflicts with his parents’ experience of growing up in India.
Explanation:
In excerpt 1, we can see that Gogol is confused by the second, americanized name that he has been given, "Nikhil". This is related to his experience of growing up in an American culture that he still does not fully understand.
In excerpt 2, it is explained that his parents were educated in much different schools. His parents are surprised about many things of the American School system, like the high quality school supplies, or the fact that the students have to recite the pledge to allegiance every morning.
In conclusion, both Gogol and his parents share the feeling of confusion that is caused by the differences between Bengali culture and American culture.
A. Gogol’s experience of growing up in an American culture conflicts with his parents’ experience of growing up in India.

MULTIPLE CHOICE / Will Impact On Other Homeschoolers / Will Mark Brainliest
Stage Set: Syd's room. Tom and Kate are unaware of the fact that Syd, who had gone out to help a friend with homework, has returned home early. He is eavesdropping on his parents' conversation.
TOM: Can you believe it? Our son going off to college?
KATE: Wow. Seems like he was born yesterday. He was a tiny little thing at five pounds. Now, he is going on a football scholarship.
TOM: How did we get so lucky?
KATE: I think he is pretty lucky, too. I did not get a new car until I was 28.
TOM: Well, he is an excellent driver, and he will be driving home every other weekend.
KATE: You think he will be like that?
TOM: Our kid? He appreciates your dinner every night. You think he is not going to like the new car? He'd be thrilled!
KATE: I wish I could kiss good night and tuck him in like when he was a baby.
TOM: Well, good thing he is not home. He would be so embarrassed. He is 17!
Which of these best explains the irony in this play?
A. The parents falsely believe that Syd is an excellent driver.
B. Only the audience knows that Syd is actually in his room.
C. Only the father knows that the son really hates football.
D. The parents have bought a new car for a teenager.
I think that it will be D.
Answer:
the answer is B. only the audience knows that Syd is actually in his room.
Explanation:
this type of irony is called dramatic irony, when the audience knows more about events in a story that the other characters don’t. in the beginning of the story the narrator tells us that Syd has returned home early however Tom and Kate don’t know. At the end of the story, Tom says “Well good thing he is not home. He would be so embarrassed. He’s 17!”. Overall, this is dramatic irony because Tom and Kate don’t know Syd has come home early and is listening to their conversation however the audience does.

A diary is a record of personal thoughts, feelings, and everyday experiences. Diaries are usually written in the first-person point of view, using the pronouns I, me, our, and so on to express personal feelings and experiences. The main purpose of a diary is to give you the freedom to describe your thoughts and to keep track of your daily events and activities.
In this task, you’ll write three diary entries. As you write, please keep in mind the elements of diary writing. You will probably have to do some research into some of the diary entry topics in order to fully understand them.
First, choose any three topics from the six listed below:
Think about your biggest pet peeve and write an entry explaining what that pet peeve is and why it bothers you.
Who do you believe is the most fascinating famous person? The individual you choose can be living or dead. Write an entry explaining who this person is and why you think they are fascinating.
The author Mark Twain once said, "Humor is tragedy plus time." Keeping in mind what you know about the words humor and tragedy, write an entry explaining what this quote may mean. In your entry, use an example from your life to support your explanation.
Has there ever been a time in your life when you felt invisible? Think of this time and write an entry explaining what happened to make you feel this way and how you dealt with the feeling.
Many people believe that it is important to find ways to pay it forward in their daily lives. Think about what “pay it forward” means. Write an entry explaining what you believe this expression means and provide an example of this practice that you have witnessed.
Think about a time in your life when you had to deal with adversity. Write an entry explaining the situation. In the entry, explain how the situation made you feel and how you overcame those feelings.
Complete your diary entries and submit them in this document for your teacher’s assessment.
Answer:
Dear diary,
I know I haven't written in you for awhile, but I've been busy with school. I had a really cool teacher this year that helped me through US History. Okay, it took a bit of energy and yeah maybe it wasn't personally fun fighting with myself to remember answers, but he had a game that helped me practice and beat the tests and quizes. At the time I was in class he waited until everyone was done with notes and gave us a free 100% for every chapter notes we finished. He helped everyone and got them finished in time.
I hope I have this teacher again next year.

- Someone leaving the water running and same goes for lights
- People who talk while their mouth is full
And that’s all I could think of..and these bother me because they just do. Like it’s rude, unhygienic, and not environmentally friendly.

Write a paragrah about racism in America pleaaaaassee ill make u as brainiest
Answer:
You Can Sorta Work With This...
Explanation:
Hatred is a futile thing that is fueled by stereotypes, divisions, bias and discrimination. This includes racism. For example, just recently the world was shaken to the core when they came to light about the George Floyd incident in Minneapolis. The poor man did not plan on resisting the arrest at all and agreed to be restrained. Without warning the 4 officers tackled Floyd to the ground while Derek Chauvin (the cop who placed George in a state of asphyxiation), put the suspected fraudster in a chokehold for 8 minutes and 46 seconds. His last words melted hearts all over the world. “Please I can’t breath. My stomach hurts. My neck hurts. Everything hurts. They’re going to kill me.” Despite Floyd’s obvious discomfort the 4 officers ignored him and continued to suffocate him. This use of excessive force led to his unfortunate death. This misuse of power forced the world into an uproar against ALL police officers. All because of the ignorance, stubbornness and sheer stupidity of ONE officer. This situation clearly shows how racism can be a very dangerous thing and how common it is in society.

Write a short essay comparing and contrasting lyric and narrative poetry.
Narrative Poetry that conveys a story usually refers to a lengthy tale, a specific event, or other occurring. Any relatively brief poem in which the speaker expresses a strong, personal emotion or state of mind is referred to be lyric poetry.
What is Narrative Poetry?
The entire story is typically written in metered verse, and narrative poetry is a type of poetry that tells a story by frequently using the voices of both a narrator and characters. Rhyme is not necessary for narrative poetry. These poems can be brief or long, and the story they are based on might be complicated.
In narrative poems, the complete narrative is told from start to finish by a single narrator. One of the main types of poetry is narrative poetry, which differs from lyric poetry by emphasizing plot over emotion. In actuality, there is a blending of these two forms of poetry: lyric parts are frequently incorporated into narrative poems, and vice versa.
Therefore a longer type of poetry known as a narrative poem which tells a whole story with a beginning, middle, and end. Characters, plot, conflict, and resolution are all characteristics of a fully developed story.

Which statement is true? The elegy in ancient Greece included choral songs that accompanied Greek dramas. The ode and the elegy are written to honor the passing of a loved one. The ode and the elegy have similar poetic structures. An ode and an elegy may have different poetic structures.
Answer:
An ode and an elegy may have different poetic structures.
Explanation:
Ode and elegies are both forms of lyric poetry that emerged in Ancient Greece, however, they differ in some aspects. Firstly, odes are mainly to praise or recognize the goals achieved by someone or some event, on the other hand, elegies are used to recognize the life of someone who died or to express the mourning for the death of someone. Additionally, both forms of lyrical poetry or stanza differ on their structures, while odes are divided into three major parts the strophe, the antistrophe and the epode, that consisted on different sections with different verse structures or irregular stanzas. On the other hand, the elegy structure consisted on hexameter verses that are verse composed by six feet (combination of two, three or four syllables), followed by pentameter verses, which are verses with ten feet. Thus, the poetic structure of the ode and elegy are different as odes have irregular structures but elegies follow a combination of hexameter and pentameter verses.

restructure his notes so they are more accessible for his learning type. What is the structure he most likely restructures his notes into?
Answer:
A). Concept Map
