I work in a company as a salesman, and I can guarantee, it's a dog's life! My co-workers are mostly wolves in sheep's clothing, my boss is always shouting like a lion! One day this job will drive me crazy. But until a better job comes along, I need to endure it. One day I find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Dear women and girls,
I hear my female friends to often call themselves ugly. But what you don’t really think about is everyone has something ugly about themselves. That makes everyone ugly ig. Lemme stop. Point I’m tryna make is that you live for yourself. You don’t live for haters, judgmental idiots or your enemies. Live for you. You don’t have to change who you are to please a society that is designed to be one way. Make your mark your way. Have a great day and remember your beautiful.

Which of the following selections best summarizes a key element of the poem "Parsley"?

A. A blight has devastated the year’s cane sugar crop.

B. The parrot is a figment of the general’s imagination.

C. The general’s mother took her own life mainly out of shame for what her son had done.

D. The general will execute anyone who does not pronounce a word in a certain way.

Answers

Answer:

D. The general will execute anyone who does not pronounce a word in a certain way.

Explanation:

Anyone who couldn't pronounce the "r" in "perejil" (Spanish for parsley) like a native Dominican Speaker will be put to death by the general.

It is not A because though the poem makes a number of references to cane harvesting, there isn't evidence to support this answer.

It is not B because while the general's sanity could be called into question based on a reading of this poem, there isn't evidence in the text that indicates the parrot is not real.

It is not C because there is no evidence to support this answer.

Hope this isn't confusing and hope this is helpful :)

At the turn of the 20th century, German math teacher Wilhelm von Osten was trying to prove the intelligence of animals. He tried to teach a cat and a bear how to add, but couldn’t do it. After years of training, he found a horse named Hans who could add, subtract, multiply and read German.
What clue is given that might make you find this suspicious?

He had not found another animal who could do this before.
Horses can’t add.
He was a math teacher, not an animal trainer.
It was only the 20th century, so animals weren’t that skilled yet.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Imagine he leaves, so every day during the summer you go to the skate park and spend hours there just sitting at a table, journaling. You go every single day. The boys skating look at you weirdly because they don't know what you're doing.
You sit there alone, and sad. Just thinking about him. Making up scenarios of him coming back home all the time.
You start to draw your view of the skate park.
You add on each day. Sometimes you even cry, silently. Other times you stop writing to just watch the world.
Every now and then one of the boys walks up and tries to talk to you. You give brief and dry responses, not really wanting to talk to his former friends.
One day you go again and you're writing, but there is a different feeling.
Something just isn't quite the same.
You see a white pickup truck pull up and your heart feels like it just stopped beating, your stomach flips as you sit and stare.
Disbelief in your eyes, your jaw drops a little.
It's him.
You see him look at you from the driver seat and watch as he pulls into a parking space.
He gets out and the boys that had been skating, start to walk up to him.
But he's already seen you. Some of the boys have told him you go there a lot, so he knew where to find you.
He ignores the boys badgering him. He tells them to give him a minute.
He's on a direct path to you.
But all you can do is stare.
When he is ten feet away you realize what is happening.
You stand up and face him as he closes the gap in two long strides.
He pulls you into the tightest hug you have ever felt. This hug is different from the ones before, it's more urgent.
Like he needed this more than anything.
You slowly wrap your arms around him and you can feel him pressing his head against the top of yours.
You've missed him so much but you're still in shock. You feel like crying. This is all you have wanted for months and he's finally here.
Then you remember why you hadn't texted him, hadn't called him, or even sent him a letter. You pull away from the hug abruptly and you go to grab your things from the table at your back. Not saying a word.
He knows you too well, he knows something is wrong. What he doesn't know is that you can't explain it, not even to yourself.
So he just says "I missed you so much."
"I know," you say quietly.
"What's wrong?" he asks.
"Nothing", you say, not looking at him.
"No, tell me," he says while reaching out to you.
"It's just been a while," you say avoiding his gaze.
"Yeah, haha, it has," he knows you're not saying what you mean, but he knows better than to push.
You turn to face him, tears in your eyes. He crouches down and picks you up, wrapping your legs around his waist for all to see.
You hold on to his neck for dear life as you choke back tears.
He feels the same in your arms, he smells the same. You want to smile and cry at the same time. You bury your head into his shoulder and neck, the soft spot you found in the street outside of your house so many months before.
He holds you tighter against him and you can feel his heart beating in sync with yours.
"I love you," he says softly.
"I love you too", you say, barely a whisper. You want to stay there forever.

"I know better”.Which is the underlined word in grammar
a. An Adjective
b. An Adverb
c. A Noun
d. A Verb​

Answers

Answer:

a.) An adverb

Explanation:

An adverb is a part of speech that modifies or describes a verb in a sentence.

There are various kinds of adverbs such as: adverb of time, place, frequency, degree and so on.

You can identify an adverb in a sentence by checking to see if the word modifies the verb in the sentence.

In the sentence: "I know better" the adverb "better" describes the verb "know". Better as used in the sentence is a comparative form of the word well. The adverb describes how well the speaker knows whatever he is talking about.

The tropical rainforest is one of the oldest ecosystems. It is one of the most diverse ecosystems. Half the plant and animal species on Earth live there. This includes many that haven't been discovered yet.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, there is no question here. Just a series of sentences.

What is your question? What do you want to know?

However, trying to help you we can comment on the following.

The tropical rainforest indeed is one of the oldest ecosystems. It is one of the most diverse ecosystems. Half the plant and animal species on Earth live there. This includes many that haven't been discovered yet.

If there is one place on planet Earth with such richness in diversity, is precisely in the tropical rainforest. Scientists believe that in the rainforest live 55% of animals, plants, trees, and vegetation that exist on our planet.

These scientists and researchers affirm that of the 250,000 species of plants that have been discovered on Earth, approximately 170,000 can be found in the rainforest.

So people should ask their governments to take extra care to protect the environment, especially the tropical rainforests that are avital part of the sentient beings that live on planet Earth.

2.

D. "Hoover tried to stymie the fall by increasing public works spending to $434 million- an enormous sum for the period."

A. Despite his many efforts, Hoover was unable to undo the effect of Harding's and Coolidge's deregulation of financial practices.

4.

The Roaring Twenties developed over time starting after World War 1 when the citizens began their rebellion, excessive spending on frivolities, reveling in the new innovations that made life easier, accumulation of debts, the booming of industries that were overall worsened by government's lackadaisical attitude.

"The other hidden cause of decay was the do-nothing almost laissez-faire attitude of the federal government".

5.

Paragraph 14 presented President Hoover as a possible hope and light that could remedy the imminent danger lurking ahead for the American economy. This was highlighted by how Hoover as Secretary of State was able to identify some problems with the stock market during Coolidge's administration.
