Which phrase helps the reader understand the meaning of proponents?

Youth sports have many proponents. On the other hand, youth sports have opponents, too. I believe that sports temper a person’s spirit. They make him or her strong and durable, just as steel is tempered. Those who froth at the mouth at the idea of school sports are burbling in vain.

Answers

Answer 1

(I read this story like 2 weeks ago lol)

Based on this excerpt, Jessica predicts that White Fang and Kiche will soon escape back into the wild.


Which line in the story is most likely to change her prediction?


"He accompanied her joyfully about the camp; and, so long as he remained close by her side, Lip-lip kept a respectful distance."

"There was something calling to him out there in the open. His mother heard it, too."

"He ran on a few steps, stopped, and looked back. She had not moved."

"The stream, the lair, and the quiet woods were calling to him, and he wanted her to come."

Answers

Answer:

"He ran on a few steps, stopped, and looked back. She had not moved."

Explanation:

Though Jessica predicts that White Fang and Kiche will soon escape back into the wild when Grey Beaver release Kiche from the chains, the line "He ran on a few steps, stopped, and looked back. She had not moved." will most likely change her prediction.

This is because when Kiche finally got her freedom, she got attached to Grey Beaver and the village. Both White Fang and Kiche knew that something was calling them back into the wild. White Fang was excited and wanted his mother to come along with him. However, when he finally got the chance to run into the wild, he noticed that his mother was not moving. She didn't want to go back into the wild.

Explanation:

I couldn't feel my entire body, like the wasteland in front of me I was frozen over and near my end. As that could be an exaggeration, I couldn't feel anything in my body, my toes had long since lost feeling and I lost feeling in my face awhile back. The wasteland in front of me housed hundreds of bodies, all of them screaming in delight all the while I wanted to scream in pain. "You could at least look like your happy." My mother grumbled at me from beside me, of course. I turned to her with murder in my eyes, I will never be happy in this freezing weather of despair, the message came across in my eyes and she turned away from me with a frown. It was her fault I was in a horrid mood, I was freezing in the middle of nowhere when I could be at home in the warmth reading or doing something equally as mind-numbing. No one was going to be able to find us, for we were dropped off by my father. I didn't know why someone I loved would put me in danger. I clenched my hands. My stomach growled as I haven't eaten in days. "When are we going to eat" was a constant question that I would keep to myself. I began to feel sleepy, as the sun fell and the moon rose. I tried to stay awake so I would be able to sleep in tomorrow morning, but I fell in a deep sleep. The next morning I woke up to screams. I opened my eyes in fear of what I may see. I was in the same place where I went to sleep. I noticed that I was by myself. In fear, I stood up and started to look around for my mother. She wasn't anywhere. "She's probably just getting food" I whispered to myself, as I returned to where I where we were dropped off. A couple of hours passed and I haven't seen my mother. I began to worry that she got lost or she could've gotten so could she gave up. No, I thought to myself, she couldn't give up. Then I remembered the screams that woke me up. "Was that her screams?" I mumbled to myself as I shivered. A couple of days past and I had not seen her. I was walking miles to find someone that could help me, but I had no luck. I stumbled across a shack. There wasn't anyone or anything inside but I stayed inside for a couple of hours, for it was a good shelter. I woke up, in the shed. Must've fallen asleep in there. I'm not sure how long I was in there for but it must've been long since it was now dark. I was broken, no one would be able to find me. I began to feel frustrated. I was by myself, I was terrified, and cold. I just want to be inside by a fire, and family. I walked more the next day and found a house. I slowly approached it in fear someone would jump out. With my blue shaking hands I knocked. No one answered. I knocked again and waited. The door slowly creaked open. An older woman appeared at the door. "My, what are you doing here in this weather?" She explained. All that could come out of my mouth was, "I'm lost." She took me inside and made me a cup of hot cocoa. I began to warm up and was able to speak more. "Have you seen my mother?" I asked. She replied with a no.  I slept on the couch that night. The next morning I woke up to the smell of pancakes. I sat there with my eyes open, thinking of my mother. Where was she? I thought. I decided it would be best for me to stay where I am. A whole year passed of me living with this woman in the middle of nowhere. One night as I was sleeping by the warm fire, I heard knocking from the door. I got up and went to open the door. As I looked outside I saw nobody, so I shut the door. A couple of minutes later I heard the knock again. I got up faster this time and opened the door. There, standing right in front of me was my mother. I was shocked. I leaped into her arms and started to cry. I was overjoyed that she was with me. The older woman stumbled out of her room and made hot cocoa just like she did for me.

The CPU processes (performs instructions on things, such as adding) stuff in memory. So when you are processing lots of data, that data ( or maybe large portions of it) will likely get loaded into RAM so it is ready for the cpu, this is to speed things up because RAM is faster to access than storage devices.

Read this excerpt from The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin.

In the next few years following the publication of his book, Champollion deciphered many more hieroglyphs. He was named "Keeper of the Egyptian Collections" in Paris in recognition of his accomplishments. Then, in 1829, he got what he had always wanted. With the backing of the French government, he journeyed to Egypt to see the ancient hieroglyphic inscriptions for himself.

What inference can readers make based on the details in the excerpt?

Only the French recognized Champollion for his accomplishments in deciphering hieroglyphics.
The French government considered Champollion’s work to be a significant achievement.
Champollion published a book just so he could take a free trip to Egypt.
Champollion had to see the hieroglyphics in person to be able to write about them.

Why did British kings say they had the right to have complete authority over the government?

Answers

Explanation:

The divine right of kings, divine right, or God's mandate is a political and religious doctrine of political legitimacy in a monarchy. It stems from a specific metaphysical framework in which a king (or queen) is pre-ordained to inherit the crown before their birth. Under this theory of political legitimacy the subjects of the crown are considered to have actively (rather than merely passively) turned over the metaphysical selection of the king's soul – which will inhabit the body and rule them – over to God. In this way, the "divine right" originates as a metaphysical act of humility or submission towards God. The divine right has been a key element for legitimizing many absolute monarchies.

Answers

Answer:

Passage 1 and passage 2 are similar because both passages are promoting the new G2 tablet, They're different because passage 1 talks about the cons of your old tablet while passage 2 only talks about the good things of the G2 tablet. The purpose of both passages are to endorse the G2 tablet. Passage 1 uses supporting details by using the statement "tired of the slow, glitchy performance of your old, tired tablet? " and supports it up by using examples of the downfalls of your old tablet as supporting details. Passage 2 uses supporting details by saying ''This convenient, portable, and useful device will help users run their lives while running their errands." and backs that statement up by telling the reader the pros of the tablet using that as supporting details. And the authors purpose is to persuade and inform you about the G2 Tablet.
