A Flag with 50 Stars

The first American flag to have red and white stripes and white stars on a blue field was flown in 1776, shortly after the United States declared its independence from Great Britain. Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag. There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes. However, we know for a fact that the first flag to have 50 stars—the one we have today—was designed by a high school student.

In 1958, Bob Heft was a 17-year-old student at Lancaster High School in Ohio. At that time, the United States had only 48 states but was on the verge of accepting two more: Alaska and Hawaii. The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly? This was the question that Bob’s history teacher posed to the class.

The teacher gave the students an assignment: design a flag with 50 stars. Bob spent hours in the attic of his house, cutting up a 48-star flag and rearranging the stars until they fit just right. He was pleased with his solution to the problem, but his teacher found it less than perfect and gave him a B minus. Outraged, Bob told his teacher that he was going to send his design to his member of Congress, Walter Moeller. His teacher replied that if Bob’s design was accepted as the new flag, he would be more than happy to change the grade to an A.

A year later, Bob had graduated and was working as a draftsman when he received a call at work. He never would have imagined a call from President Eisenhower—but that's who it was! Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag. Bob Heft was invited to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony during which his design was officially adopted as the new flag of the United States.

Which statement best describes the author’s viewpoint toward in “A Flag with 50 Stars”?


People make too much of the importance of historical accuracy.


Bob is to be admired for believing in himself and his work.


Bob's teacher is unreasonable and unfair.


Congress should pay more attention to the ideas of young people.

Danny's bellowing voice carried across the field. "No! you need to pass the ball! Stop cradling it and pass!"

Danny was the team captain of the lacrosse team. He was one of the best players in the league. He was good, but he could be malicious. That morning, my playing technique was taking the brunt of Danny's harsh criticism.

"You really need to learn to pass better, Finn. you're letting the team down!"

Practice ended, and as Danny strode swiftly back toward the changing rooms, I hung my head and looked down at the green grass of the field. At the start of practice, the lush, green grass had made me smile. I relished being outside and playing lacrosse with my teammates. Sure, many of them were better than me, but I enjoyed the game and being part of a team. I was always the one cheering the loudest for my friends when they threw the ball across the goal line. I wished Danny would cheer for us instead of shouting callous things. It was starting to ruin the game so much for me that I was thinking of quitting.

Select how the narrator's point of view influences the description of events.

A. The reader knows how both Danny and Finn feel about his yelling.
B. The reader knows how the whole team feels about Danny's yelling.
C. The reader only knows how Danny feels about his yelling.

Read the excerpt from the drama The Snow Monster:

Scene 1

A fire crackles inside a cozy cabin. Reuben and Bailey sit close by on a sofa, peacefully sipping hot chocolate from large mugs. Another young boy, Quinn, bursts through the door.

Quinn: (Huffing) You'll never believe what I've just seen!

Reuben and Bailey turn quickly in surprise. Bailey spills some of his hot chocolate down his shirt.

Bailey: Ouch! (Shaking his head, as he pats at the spilled liquid) Quinn, you really must stop doing that!

Quinn: (Puzzled as he pulls off his coat) Doing what?

Bailey: Rushing in here and shouting about your latest impossible sighting. Yesterday it was a penguin. The day before, it was a flying reindeer.

Quinn: Aw, c'mon! Anyone could mistake a crow for a penguin from a distance.

Reuben: Only someone as blind as a bat, or a boy who was pulling our legs and telling tales.

Quinn: I wasn't lying! This time is different, I swear! This time it's a real-life snow monster!

Bailey: (With a slight squeak) You saw a snow monster? Like a yeti?

Quinn: Yes! (Pauses) Well, I didn't see it exactly …

Bailey and Reuben groan.

Quinn: Okay, okay. I know I sometimes let my imagination run wild, but this time I have proof! On my way back from the sledding hill, I came across the strangest sight: giant footprints in the snow!

Reuben: (Sarcastically) Footprints? In the snow? It must be a monster! What else could have possibly made footprints in the snow? Oh, yeah–any animal in the area!

Based on Quinn's character traits, what might be a possible ending to this story that is different than the original ending?

A. They find a bear in a cave and run away from it.
B. They find monsters in a cave and run away from them.
C. They take a picture of a bear and become famous.

Answer:

Hey! I think it is option 3rd. Option 3rd states :-

"R and J, together with their brothers, are attending the game."

Now first let us define what is a subject and a verb. Subject is where someone is doing an action to the verb. A verb is the thing that is expressing the action done by the subject.

Now back to the sentence, we can see that the subject is "R and J" and the verb is "attending". If we read the sentence, it does not sounds right. The correct form would be Subject-Verb-Object. Take a look at this one :-

"R and J are attending the game together with their brothers."

Subject is underlined. Verb is in bold.

Now the sentence would be correct. So the answer to your question is the 3rd option. Hope this helps, thank :) !!

What is  country?

A country is a distinct part of the world, such as a state, nation, or other political entity. It may be a sovereign state or make up one part of a larger state.For example, the country of Japan is an independent, sovereign state, while the country of Wales is a component of a multi-part sovereign state, the United Kingdom. A country may be a historically sovereign area (such as Korea), a currently sovereign territory with a unified government (such as Senegal), or a non-sovereign geographic region associated with certain distinct political, ethnic, or cultural characteristics (such as the Basque Country).

The definition and usage of the word "country" is flexible and has changed over time. The Economist wrote in 2010 that "any attempt to find a clear definition of a country soon runs into a thicket of exceptions and anomalies."Most sovereign states, but not all countries, are members of the United Nations.

The type of asexual reproduction that is shown in the picture include vegetative propagation, fission, regeneration, spore formation, and budding.

The vegetative propagation has to do with the reproduction of offsprings from its vegetative organs. Fission involves the division of a single parent into two.

Please write of definition essay outline about love.

Answers

Answer:

Love is something that means very different things to different people. For some, love can be purely romantic, or even purely sexual. For others, real love is utterly unconditional and only truly exists between family members, or between people and a deity. And for some people, love is fluid, ever changing, and everywhere, and is felt for family, friends, partners, pets, and even inanimate objects, dead artists, and fictional characters. None of these people would be right or wrong, but one thing is certain: love is the most powerful force in the entire universe.

Love is a relationship of mutual understanding and respect. Marriages and partnerships are often built on common ground that people find when they first meet; this can be as deep as sharing religious, philosophical or religious beliefs, or as simple as finding that you love the same film, book, or band.

This kind of love is often reliant on some kind of ‘chemistry’: that strange feeling that they give you in the pit of your stomach, and the feeling that nothing in the world is more important to you than enjoying the moment you’re in together. Some people feel that they experience love at first sight, where they know from the minute they set eyes on each other that they want to to be with that person, but something built on common interests and understanding must be stronger.

A parent’s love for a child can also often be described as love at first sight, but this is very strong because it comes from a natural instinct to protect our offspring. This love can often start before the baby is even born: you only have to look at the pride and excitement of many parents-to-be when they have their scans and feel their baby kick for the very first time. This kind of love is also felt by a child for its mother; it is unconditional for at least the first few years of life, and can also be felt between siblings.

It is the strength of this feeling that makes love the most powerful emotion that most of us will ever experience. People can do some dreadful things out of hate and fear, but love can push us to do much, much worse. And it is often love that can cause us to hate, whether it’s out of jealousy, or anger because our loved one has been hurt. Love, ultimately, is a sacrifice, whatever the relationship, and it must be the most powerful force in the universe because as human beings, we make true sacrifices for nothing less.

Answers

Answer:

1. George roared like a lion. - simile    

2. He was a bear of a man. - metaphor    

3. The line grouping in which a poem may be written - stanza    

4. He slept through the winter long and cold, All tightly up in his blanket rolled. -   rhyme  

5. The bong of a bell rang softly. - imitation of sounds    

6. When a poem has a beat made by stressed syllables - rhythm    

7. The flight of the bird stood for the freedom now felt. - symbolism    

8. The walls screamed with loneliness. - personification    

9. When a poem has a rhythmical pattern that is not completely regular - cadence

 

Explanation:

Simile and metaphor are figures of speech used for comparison. The difference between them is that a simile will rely on words such as "as" or "like", while a metaphor will not. Metaphors simply state "A is B", while similes state "A is like B."

A stanza, or verse, is a group of lines in a poem.

A rhyme is a repetition of sounds in the final words of different lines in a poem. In the case we are analyzing here, the words "cold" and "rolled" rhyme with each other.

Some words we use originate from the imitation of sounds produced by animals or objects. The word "bong" in the sentence imitates the sound a bell produces.

In a poem, rhythm is determined by a pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables. When such a pattern does not exist, we speak of cadence.

Symbolism uses something to represent something else, usually something simple or small to represent something bigger and more important. An example is a national flag, often associated with ideas of independence and freedom.

Finally, personification is a figure of speech in which human traits are attributed to inanimate objects. In the sentence, the author says the walls screamed, which is, realistically speaking, impossible. It is simply a way to emphasize the feeling of loneliness.
