Answer:
please stop breaking it -----> begging
countless animals dying ----> sadness
dissension, discord, and rebellion -----> anger
flocks of geese landing in early spring ------> hopefulness.
Explanation:
Please stop breaking it is begging because it uses please. Ex: Please answer this question correctly!
Countless animals dying is sadness because you wouldn't be angry or hopeful about it. Dying is keyword. Ex: You grandmother died.
Dissension, discord, and rebellion is anger because those words mean to disagree and you wouldn't be sad because you disagree with something.
Ex: They are not treating us right, so we're going to rebel.
Flocks of geese landing in early spring is hopefulness because the geese won't get stuck in the winter and won't die. So countless animals aren't dying.
Ex: The geese mated in the spring, so their population is increasing.

I need help writing a paragraph talking about culture but relating to "Food". PLEASE DON'T GET IT OFF THE WEB
Answer:
US food culture
Explanation:
US food culture is diverse due to the amount of immigrants that migrate to the US. US food culture consists of mexican, italian, chinese, and more. Those foods include enchiladas, tacos, spaghetti and meatballs, ravioli, sweet and sour chicken, and eggrolls just to name a few. The US also has American cuisine like hotdogs, burgers, fried chicken, apple pie, and Texas style ribs. The US is a very diverse place when it comes to food, but the interesting thing about US food culture is that it consists of multiple cultures.
I DID NOT GET THIS FROM THE WEB!!!
IS THIS GOOD OR NOT??
Answer:
Whatever you want it to be ....
Explanation:
Writing a paragraph on food culture has to do with meaning ! Food has background!! So food is a necessity for every living thing... gives us enjoyment at the same time. Chinese like to eat hot pot in winter to keep them warm. In the northern part of China, there are more spicy dishes than the southern part of China. Different cultures have many different religions, different religions mean that they have different customs and food is an important part of a religion. Some religion such as Muslims, consider eating pork as a dirty food, and people should not eat them. People also choose not to eat meat a new part of culture nowadays ... they have meanings behind it either because they feel for the animals or because they might have had a pet animal they had to end up killing. This could be because of their family had to kill it for food, because that was how they were raised... which is also another part of their culture raising and killing there animals for food.

Explanation:
Anne Frank and Malala Yousafzai both overcame horrific acts of oppression. Write an essay discussing how Anne and Malala responded to the discrimination that was imposed on them. Support your response with evidence from the text.
Answer:Life narratives are an important part of literature. They allow the reader to experience the author’s life through their eyes. By doing this they are exposed to the author’s emotions and point of view, which the reader would not have experienced if it wasn’t a life narrative. Both Anne Frank and Malala Yousafzai have written very inspiring life narratives. A Diary of a Young Girl by Frank and I am Malala by Yousafzi share incredible stories of two young girls going through something nobody should ever face in their lifetime. Both girls stories have raised awareness in their own ways around the world.
Frank’s diary shares her experience as a young Jewish girl living in Germany during the Second World War. Having to go into hiding with her family to escape from the Nazis is one of many examples of the writing in her diary. Anne’s diary allows the reader to learn about the horrors that are happening to the Jewish people through her eyes, and get a personal experience of the War. Frank’s book is taught in middle schools today for students to learn about the War. I think teaching the book at this age is important because the readers would be around the same age as Frank was while she was writing. When I studied this book in school, it was shocking to me what Anne was going through at 13 in comparison to what I was.
Malala’s book is an incredible story of how she stood up for the right for girls to go to school against the Taliban at the age of fifteen. The book is set in Pakistan during a time when the Taliban had control over most things — including schools for girls. That did not stop Malala from going to school. Malala had very different views from the Taliban when it came to gender equality (I am Malala). Her advocacy for her beliefs is what made her a target of the Taliban and is why they attempted to murder her. Being targeted and shot for her views was not going to stop Malala. She wrote a book to share with the world her experience and to show people the discrimination against women that is occurring in her country.
These books show how two young girls different experiences can influence so many people around the world. Anna and Malala come from very different backgrounds and religious views, but they are both seen just as inspiring. By looking at the books together it is clear how it doesn’t matter where they come from, the time they are set in, or what they have faced, both girls and books are equally influential in the literary world.
Explanation:
kinds of clauses
On the line after each sentence, identify the boldfaced group of words by writingIIMD for an independent clause or SUB for a subordinate clause. Then find the conjunction in the sentence. Underline coordinating conjunction once and underline subordinating conjunction twice.
1. Customers demand thousands of products, and every grocery tries to please.
2. Because people have different tastes, stores order many brands.
3. When a product is popular, a store stocks many sizes of that one product.
4. In the past, a cashier could not record every product sold as she rang up a sale.
5. While the store was closed, workers took inventory.
6. Managers noted products low in stock, and the purchasing agent reordered.
7. If stock ran out too soon, customers complained.
8. In 1948, when a graduate student at Drexel Institute of Technology heard
about the problem, he and a partner set out to solve it.
9. Almost 25 years passed before their solution became practical.
Answer:
1. Customers demand thousands of products, and every grocery tries to please. - independent clause
2. Because people have different tastes, stores order many brands. - subordinate clause
3. When a product is popular, a store stocks many sizes of that one product. - subordinate clause
4. In the past, a cashier could not record every product sold as she rang up a sale. - subordinate clause
5. While the store was closed, workers took inventory. - subordinate clause
6. Managers noted products low in stock, and the purchasing agent reordered. - independent clause
7. If stock ran out too soon, customers complained. - subordinate clause
8. In 1948, when a graduate student at Drexel Institute of Technology heard about the problem, he and a partner set out to solve it. - subordinate clause
9. Almost 25 years passed before their solution became practical. - subordinate clause
Explanation:
I underlined coordinating conjunctions and independent/subordinate clauses and bolded subordinating conjunctions.
Independent clauses are clauses that can stand on their own as separate sentences. They contain all elements a sentence should contain: a subject, predicate, and they express a complete thought. When a sentence consists of more than one independent clause, they are often connected by a coordinating conjunction. There are seven coordinating conjunctions: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so.
A subordinate clause is a clause that can't stand alone as a complete sentence. Its purpose is to provide additional information about the main clause. What connects subordinate clauses to main clauses are subordinating conjunctions.

How could healthcare be improved for the elderly
Answer:
Explanation:
With the Baby Boomer and Generation X groups getting older each day, the country is facing the reality that by 2025, one quarter of the workforce will be above 55,”The problem doesn’t only lie in the fact that Americans are living longer. They’re also, generally speaking, more sick. The CDC recently noted that the number of individuals suffering from Alzheimer’s would double by the year 2060, and the rise of chronic illness affects nearly half of all adults in the U.S. Seniors are also more likely to experience macular degeneration and life threatening dental problems. This inevitably puts a strain on an already overburdened and understaffed healthcare system. Here are some ways we can fix this problem
Creating comprehensive patient assessments that include a complete review of all medical, psychosocial, lifestyle, and patient values
Creation and implementation of an evidenced-based plan of care that addresses all of the patient’s health-related needs
Communication and coordination with all who provide care for the patient in question
Promotion of the patient’s (and their caregiver’s) engagement in their own healthcare
