You have been assigned an argumentative writing task where you are to defend the use of body cameras by the local police force.
Which is the BEST example of a precise claim you might make for your argument?
A)
Lots of people think that body cameras are a good idea for the police to
use because they will capture what goes on.
B)
o
Body cameras will record what goes on if a police officer pulls someone
over and forgets to ask for their license and registration.
Body cameras come in many styles and types, but the fact remains that
they are meant to record what goes on when police interact with citizens.
Many think that body cameras are an invasion of privacy, but body cameras
actually will make sure that both citizens and police interact appropriately
with each other more often.
D)
Answer: B) Body cameras will record what goes on if a police officer pulls someone over and forgets to ask for their license and registration.
Explanation:
Precise claims give more credence to arguments because they improve the practicability of the argument being made as opposed to vague assertions that may be open to interpretation.
In giving the precise claim about how body cameras help in the case of an officer forgetting to ask about a person's license and registration, the argument gives a real life use of body cameras that is specific and will therefore help build the argument of why body cams are important.
Answer:
The correct answer is D) Many think that body cameras are an invasion of privacy, but body cameras actually will make sure that both citizens and police interact appropriately with each other more often.

will mark brainiest excerpt from “Mohandas Gandhi: Truth in Action” by Vanessa Wright “Thief,” thought Mohandas Gandhi. “I am a thief.” Fifteen-year-old Mohandas looked at the gold in his hand. He had stolen it from his brother. It was not his first theft: earlier, he had stolen coins from the family’s servants. But now, the gold in his hand burned like a hot coal. He sat down and wrote a letter of confession to his father. Would his father punish him? Mohandas watched as his father read the note. Tears rolled down his father’s cheeks, wetting the paper. But there was no scolding. Silently, his father tore the letter into pieces. Later, Gandhi realized that, in his father’s response, he had seen the principle of Ahimsa—of nonviolence—in action. He dedicated his life to that principle. Which choice best describes an anecdote? a. a remedy that reverses the effect of a poison? b. a brief funny or engaging tale about an actual person or incident. c. a surprising fact that creates interest in the text d. a description of a person featured in an information text
Answer:

HELP QUICKLY?? 100 POINTS!!! 10. What images does Thomas create with his words in this stanza (what do you see in your head based on his descriptions)? Make sure to provide textual evidence to support the imagery you see.
Answer (You didn't tell me what poem and which stanza) Is it this poem? :
"Do not go gentle into that good night" by Dylan Thomas
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
What images does Thomas create with his words in this stanza (what do you see in your head based on his descriptions)?:
Thomas wrote "Do not go gentle into that good night" during a very specific moment in Dylan Thomas's life. His father, David John Thomas, had first introduced him to the wonder of language by reading him Shakespeare before bed at night. Thomas's father was a grammar school teacher, but he had always wanted to be a poet but was never able to realize his dream. Thomas wrote "Do not go gentle into that good night" because his father was dying.

Select an historical event from the list provided. Research media coverage of the event and write a five-paragraph essay in which you discuss each of the following:
The type of media used to cover the event and its relationship to technology of the time
The impact of media coverage on public opinion
The impact of public opinion and other factors (such as political or corporate motives) on the media coverage
Refer back to the sample and rubric provided in the project.
Here are four historical events from which you may choose:
The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy (November 22, 1963): President John F. Kennedy was fatally shot as his open limousine moved through a crowd of supporters in the streets of downtown Dallas. He was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. Within an hour of his death, police had taken Lee Harvey Oswald into custody as their prime suspect. Two days later, as TV cameras rolled, Jack Ruby, a Texas nightclub owner, stepped through the crowd and shot Oswald. Though a government commission ruled Oswald responsible, Kennedy's death is still shrouded in mystery. To this day, many wonder who shot the President and why.
The Exxon-Valdez Oil Spill (March 24, 1989): An oil tanker carrying 52 million gallons of oil ran aground at Bligh Reef in Alaska. More than 10 million gallons of oil spilled into Prince William Sound. The area was home to salmon, seals, sea otters, and sea birds. Hundreds of thousands of animals died in the spill. The remote location and sheer size of the spill made clean-up very difficult. The environmental effects are still felt today. The event sparked several legal battles and debates about the ethics of the oil industry.
The Y2K Scare: Y2K is the name given to the so-called "millennium bug" or "Year 2000 Problem." Early computer design programming would not support "00" as a date. In the late 1990s, computer experts discovered the problem. It meant, in theory, that older computer systems (like those used by banks, power companies, and the government) would stop working correctly at midnight on January 1, 2000. The fear was that the crash of computers would cause chaos as bank errors and power outages overtook the entire world. As part of the Y2K scare, companies worldwide upgraded their systems to avoid fallout, and no serious issues were reported.
The Indian Ocean Earthquake and Tsunami (December 26, 2004): An undersea earthquake off the coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, caused a series of tsunamis (tidal waves) across Southeast Asia. The waves destroyed coastal villages in parts of Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and India. Approximately 250,000 people were killed as a result of the earthquake and the tidal waves that followed. The disaster sparked a massive humanitarian effort.

In your opinion, is the Ancient Mariner's punishment for killing the Albatross fair? Whose fate is worse, the Ancient Mariner's or the sailors'? Why? 80 to 100 words
This question seems to be deficient. However, there´s enough information to find the right answer.
Answer:
In my opinion, the Ancient Mariner's punishment was fair, and his fate was worse than the sailors'.
Explanation:
In The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (1798), by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, assuming that the sailors' punishment was death, even though we are not certain about what final fate their souls had after that, their suffering could be thought of as less than the Ancient Mariner's, who is left alive but cursed with an awful fate.
Both the sailors and the Ancient Mariner are at fault for killing the bird that had saved them because the sailors praised him afterward. However, the main fault rests in the Ancient Mariner, who did the actual killing, and must carry the burden of being responsible for the death of his crewmembers.

Look at the prompt for this unit: Was Brutus a betrayer or a patriot? and write a one-sentence statement of your claim. Then write two or three examples of counterclaims to your argument. Provide specific examples from the play to support your claim. Use proper spelling and grammar.
Answer:
Hey, I just did this "essay" part of the quiz... I hope it helps.. oh, and I hope you have a good day:)
Explanation:
Brutus was a patriot. And he plotted against Caesar, who was declared by the public to be crowned king, and stabbed his friend in the back, Brutus was more concerned for the success and well-being of the people of Rome. As Brutus stated in Julius Caesar, "Had you rather Caesar were living and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free men? With this I depart: that, as I slew my best lover for the good of Rome, I have the same dagger for myself when it shall please my country to need my death." Of course killing someone whom you were fond of is an act of betrayal, but think about it this way: Brutus chose to betray one man to stay loyal to the rest of the people of Rome, and would proceed to kill himself if it meant he would help his Country.

Gretchen’s friends Stella and Thane functioned in loco parentis for the young woman. After she moved to South Carolina to attend school, the couple walked her through the process of purchasing a car. They often invited her over for holidays, and Gretchen was grateful to them for their advice.
Based on the context, what is the meaning of in loco parentis?
being grateful for help
acting as mother or father
as an unwelcome person
as a household of three
The correct answer is B. Acting as mother or father.
Explanation
The term in loco parentis is a word of Latin origin used to refer to the expression "in the place of a father/mother" and refers to the responsibility that a person or organization assumes as a father or mother. Therefore, it is correct to say that Stella and Thane took on the role of father/mother with Gretchen because the paragraph says that "the couple walked her through the process of purchasing a car. They often invited her over for holidays, and Gretchen I was grateful to them for their advice. " So the correct answer is B. Acting as mother or father.
