PLEASE HELP *I WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIST* Imagine that you have to write an argumentative essay on whether or not teenagers should be allowed to have their own cell phones. Write a claim for this essay with at least one reason. (2 points)
Answer:
In my opinion teenagers should be allowed to have their own cellphones and this is my opinion on it.
To start off with teenagers need to keep in touch, for example what happens if your late to pick your child up from school you wouldnt be able to keep in touch.
Another reason out of the many is to improve their organization for example you can set alarms and use a calendar to mark down special events such as meets and school events.
Finally in encourages their responsibility.
In conclusion their are many reasons why teenagers should own a phone and that is my opinion on it.
These days cell phones are a hand to the world. you won't see a kid without a mobile phone in hand. though mobile phones can be a great influence, it is very dangerous to have it too. Cell phones have both advantages and disadvantages.
People can learn a lot from cell phones. Cell phones are used for entertainment, communication, taking photos or videos and staying up to date. Teenagers can also learn the importance of responsibility by the use of this device.
But with this there can be a huge impact on kids using mobile phones. Kids using mobile can have a huge loss of studies. They can learn things which are not supposed to be known. Once you get the mobile phone addiction it is very hard to get rid of it. if u misuse the use of mobile phones you can also get serious health issues.
In my opinion teenager shouldn't get mobile phones at this age as it is a huge threat to their studies as well as there life.
hope it helps!

(What is the one plural or possessive error?)
Answer: The two errors in a sentence are Change sisters to sisters' and Change singles to singles.
Explanation: What is an error in a sentence?
A sentence fragment is a specific grammar mistake that occurs when a collection of words are put together but do not fully represent the content of the phrase.
It happens when a phrase or dependent clause (subordinate clause) can stand on its own as though it were a whole sentence. Another example is when a sentence fragment is presented as a complete sentence.
When permitted to stand alone, a phrase—a group of two, three, or more words that do not contain a subject or verb—becomes a sentence fragment. Even though a dependent clause has a subject and verb, the same thing occurs.
Therefore, The two errors in the sentence are Change sisters to sisters' and Change singles to singles.
Read each passage of dialogue. Identify the type of conflict.
choices:
a. person vs. person
b. person vs. self

In fact, turkeys are quite intelligent and social: they form meaningful friendships, understand their surroundings, and are quite affectionate.

why is this poem the biggest piece of junk on the planet it makes no sense
The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

Answer:
ur mom
Explanation:
In your own words, explain what the speaker means by the statement, “A troubadour upon the elm / Betrays the solitude.” (From the Poem 'new feet within my garden go')
Read the prompt and response. Then revise the response so that it better addresses the purpose and audience.
Prompt:
Your school district is considering a policy change for your middle school. Rather than having two separate sixth-grade classes, the classes would be combined into one class that has two teachers. Decide whether this approach would be a good idea at your school, and write a letter to your principal that presents your stance and at least two reasons to support it.
Response:
There are benefits and drawbacks to both sides of this issue. Keeping the sixth grade as two smaller classes means the students would receive more individual attention. In addition, some students feel more comfortable sharing or participating in a smaller group than in a bigger one. On the other hand, having one large combined class would have benefits, too. It would ensure that the entire sixth grade is learning the same material at the same pace. Also, this large class would be able to rely on the skills and expertise of two teachers, rather than just one..
If you ask me I think we shouldn’t have combined six grade classes. From my perspective, I think it’s a very bad idea.

While “Address on the Occasion of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Statue of Liberty” and Our Immigrants at Ellis Island are both about immigrants coming to America, their viewpoints vary greatly in their diction, tone, and syntax. In text one, the author includes positive/negative connotation to discuss ___. For example, they use words like “_______” to describe ____. In text two, positive/negative connotation is used. The author uses words like “____” to describe ___. Based on the author’s word choice in text one, the tone can be described as _____. On the other hand, the tone of text two is ____. The syntax also varies. Text one uses ____ sentences and ____ punctuation to show ____. However, text two uses ____ sentences and ____ to illustrate ____. In summary, while both texts address ___, the authors’ perspectives are very different. In text one, the author feels ____ about ___. In contrast, the author of text two feels that ___.
For over three centuries a steady stream of men, women and children followed the beacon of liberty which this light symbolizes. They brought to us strength and moral fibre developed in a civilization centuries old but fired anew by the dream of a better life in America. They brought to one new country the cultures of a hundred old ones.
It has not been sufficiently emphasized in the teaching of our history that the overwhelming majority of those who came from the Nations of the Old World to our American shores were not the laggards, not the timorous, not the failures.
They were men and women who had the supreme courage to strike out for themselves, to abandon language and relatives, to start at the bottom without influence, without money and without knowledge of life in a very young civilization. We can say for all America what the Californians say of the Forty-Niners: "The cowards never started and the weak died by the way."
Perhaps Providence did prepare this American continent to be a place of the second chance. Certainly, millions of men and women have made it that. They adopted this homeland because in this land they found a home in which the things they most desired could be theirs—freedom of opportunity, freedom of thought, freedom to worship God. Here they found life because here there was freedom to live.
It is the memory of all these eager seeking millions that makes this one of America's places of great romance. Looking down this great harbor I like to think of the countless numbers of inbound vessels that have made this port. I like to think of the men and women who, with the break of dawn off Sandy Hook, have strained their eyes to the west for a first glimpse of the New World.
They came to us—most of them—in steerage. But they, in their humble quarters, saw things in these strange horizons which were denied to the eyes of those few who traveled in greater luxury.
They came to us speaking many tongues—but a single language, the universal language of human aspiration.
How well their hopes were justified is proved by the record of what they achieved. They not only found freedom in the New World, but by their effort and devotion they made the New World's freedom safer, richer, more far-reaching, more capable of growth.
Ellis island text:
The missionary questions the Italian family, and little Carmelita, thirteen years old, tells her story in some such way as follows:
"Our home was in Naples in the South of Italy. It is so beautiful there! And the sun shines all day long and every day, and we often sing our dear song, "La bella Napoli." We loved our dear sunny Italy so much!
But we were very poor, and father heard there is good times in America and plenty money; so one day he say good-by to us all and come over here. He not find plenty money, and sometimes he very poor, and it was long to wait, but by and by he find a good work and being to save money to bring us over.
"Every week my mother gotta letter, and every time it tell how much money my father saved. Father can't write himself, but he know a boy that can; and mother, she get a lady that she work for to read it to her. We not have so many schools in Italy, and when the father and mother were little they not have much chance; but my Italy now is like other countries and make more schools, and many children can go, but not all.
I learn a little, and the American lady that mother wash for, she teacha me the English. Father, he write that, when we come to America, we all shall go to the school; so we all want to make hurry to come to this land.
"At last, in a letter came money to buy the ticket for all of us, mother and grandmother and all the children. Mother think it much work to get us all ready, but we all helped; and, after all, there was not much to get ready, for we not own many things; and so at last we all were packed up, and every one had something to carry except baby. Even Theresa carried the birdcage, though she is only two.
