Is it right to test medical procedures, products or cosmetics on animals to see if they are safe for humans?
Answer:
Many people find that testing products on animals is cruel, while others agree that it is better for the animal to die rather than the human. The answer really depends on the opinion of the person answering it. I believe that testing products on animals is very cruel and that there is sure to be a better way to test their products, but again it all relies on the opinion. There is technically no right or wrong answer to this. Hope this helps!

I would like to introduce you to my son, Wind-Wolf. He is
probably what you would consider a typical Indian kid. He
was born and raised on the reservation. He has black hair,
dark brown eyes, olive complexion. And like so many
Indian children his age, he is shy and quiet in the
classroom. He is five years old, in kindergarten, and I can't
understand why you have already labeled him a "slow
learner."
--Medicine Grizzlybear Lake, "An Indian Father's Plea"
What is the author's purpose in reintroducing Wind-Wolf to the teacher?
A. To show the teacher that Wind-Wolf is an individual and not
strange just because he comes from a different culture
B. To give the teacher a chance to apologize for treating Wind-Wolf
unfairly
C. To expose the teacher's prejudice against American Indians and
request a classroom change
D. To allow the teacher the chance to get to know American Indian
culture before Wind-Wolf enters a new classroom
Answer:
The answer is A: To show the teacher that Wind-Wolf is an individual and not strange just because he comes from a different culture.
Explanation:
I got it right on A p e x. The author reintroduces his son so that the teacher can get to know him in a different way and get to understand why he may seem like a "slow learner." I hope this helps and makes sense.

What is meant by the term reintroducing ?The term reintroducing is descried as introducing someone or something again as new.
Here,
The author of the article "An Indian Father's Plea" by Robert Lake takes a moment to explain to his readers how cultural background may significantly affect how you view other people.
Since it can influence how you interact with people, your desire for change, and your ideas of the world, culture has a bigger impact on someone's viewpoint of others and the world than its other influences. We would all be lost as a society if we didn't understand what culture is and does.
Hence,
The author's purpose in reintroducing Wind-Wolf to the teacher is to show the teacher that Wind-Wolf is an individual and not strange just because he comes from a different culture. So, the correct answer is option A.

Don't you set down on the steps.

Is graffiti art? Thanks to the works of Banksy, Shepard Fairey, and other renowned street artists, many
people believe that it is. Indeed, pieces by the most famous street artists can be found in museums and
auction houses around the world. However, others maintain that even the most masterful street art is
no more than an illegal, destructive act. Detractors certainly have a point: street art is illegal. When
someone paints where she does not have permission to paint, she is breaking the law-it does not
matter if she has scrawled profanity or recreated the Mona Lisa. Illegal street art is certainly a problem
in many cities, but eliminating it completely would deprive people of some of the most brilliant,
thought-provoking art being made today. Perhaps the best solution is for cities to create special areas
where street artists can practice their art legally. Cities could designate certain bridges, tunnels, or
public buildings as legal areas for street artists to paint. Doing so would not only give street artists a
place to display their talents, it might also reduce the amount of illegal vandalism in other places.
Based on the way it is used in sentence 5, the word "detractors" most nearly means
Answer: a person who disparages someone or something.
Explanation:
Answer:
I think grafitti not good and illegal. There are different forms like the non-innapropriate art on buildings and the sidewalk, that is ok. But when there is graffitti on a playground or on nature, that is deffinently not ok and that is when it becomes illegal.
