In Hoot, who rescues Roy from the broom closet beating? How does this way of returning this favor affect the plot?
Answers
Beatrice's rescue of Roy has a significant impact on the plot of the novel. It deepens the bond between Roy and Beatrice and sets up a series of events that ultimately lead to their efforts to save a group of endangered burrowing owls from being destroyed by a construction project. Beatrice's actions also illustrate the novel's themes of friendship, loyalty, and standing up for what is right, as well as the idea that sometimes the most unexpected people can become allies and friends. Without Beatrice's intervention, the story may have taken a different turn, and Roy may not have been as committed to the cause of protecting the owls.
Roy also has trouble with a bully named Dana Matherson. When we leave Roy at the end of Chapter 9, the poor kid is being beat up by Dana in a closet. Just as it looks like Roy is going to get really hurt, Dana gets carried out.

Answer:The larger lesson to be learnt here is the fact that for all the reasons in the world, no human being is a zero, though it is a common perception if one is abandoned. Being left alone in a moment of pain, loss or confusion might make someone seem unimportant to the others who are around.In the situation Connie has to face, performing an unwanted action , she simply takes into account how awkward it feels for her when her grandma gets lost.She leaves her alone and not knowing where her granddaughter is causes anger and disappointment in the lady.People, all of us, tend to take it too much to heart when we are deserted , especially if we are counting on someone.the old usually experience this awful sensation of having been left on their own because no one takes them into account any longer.Yet, they are full of experiences and so eager to help with all they have been through that it is impossible not to care about them.Finally, we will all reach that age and feeling like a zero is the worst sensation in the universe.Connie has to understand that and value the presence of her grandma.

Answers
Answer:
“I hope you find one today, Alexa,” Dad says, as if reading my thoughts.
“Me, too,” my brother, Jonah, says. “I want to see one, too!”
I lift my head up, turn toward Jonah, and glare. Why, why, why does he always insist on following me everywhere, doing everything I do? Make your own friends, I want to scream at him. Find your own green sea turtle!
But I don’t say it. I don’t say anything. Ever since Jonah was a little kid and they discovered the reason he acts so different is because he has autism, I’ve been trained to make allowances for him. Trained to put up with a lot.
Like, for instance, having to go to the airport weeks before this vacation to “practice” taking a trip on an airplane. My family, and other families with kids like Jonah, had to go through the whole drill—carry luggage (empty, of course), stand in lines (waiting for what, exactly?)—all to board a plane that would never leave the ground.
“Alexa,” my mother had said while I sighed and groaned throughout the entire pointless exercise, “if we ever hope to take that six-hour flight to the Virgin Islands, we have to get Jonah used to the idea. Otherwise, the trip could go very badly.”
The practice must have worked because we all survived the real flight two weeks later, even though Jonah acted totally embarrassingly. He did a lot of hand flapping and looking over his seat to ask the man behind us a million weird questions over and over again, like had he ever ridden a camel. At least Jonah didn’t scream.
But since we’ve been here, “badly” just about sums up how the entire vacation has gone. Jonah freaked out about the feel of the hot sand on his skin. He’ll never get the idea about not yelling at the top of his lungs in restaurants. And he can’t even try to understand that maybe I’d like to do some things on my own. He’s attached himself to me like a barnacle. It’s even worse than it is at home. At least there, my friends and I can go into my room and lock the door when Jonah won’t leave us alone, which is often. I try to go to my friends’ houses as much as possible, so we don’t have to put up with Jonah saying weird things, like asking a friend “Is that your shirt?” over and over when it’s obviously hers—she’s wearing it!—or doing weird things, like lining up all the spoons in the house down the hallway and screeching at us if we accidentally move one.
“We’ll anchor here,” the captain calls out as the catamaran putters to a stop in the middle of Turtle Cove.
Ever since Mom told us she won this trip to St. Thomas for being the top producer at work, all I’ve been able to think about is seeing at least one green sea turtle, hopefully even swimming with one green sea turtle. I’ve watched videos online of people swimming with the turtles, and that’s the main reason I wanted to go on this trip.
“Dad,” I say as the captain drops the anchor, “could you and Jonah please swim off that side of the boat, so I can go in the opposite direction?”

Logos is, by far, the most prominent rhetorical strategy used in the speech. Essentially, the core of the author's argument is a classical syllogism: the Constitution secures liberties for all people, women are people - therefore, women should enjoy the freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution - including suffrage - as much as men. She even adopts the form of a syllogism directly when she speaks of this discrimination from a legal perspective.

Based on information in the article, which best describes the difference between the child labor rates in Nepal and Mongolia?
A.Child labor rates have increased in Mongolia since 1990, but decreased in Nepal since 1990.
B.Child labor rates have increased in Mongolia since 1990, but stayed the same in Nepal since 1990.
C.Child labor rates have increased in Nepal since 1990, but decreased in Mongolia since 1990.
D.Child labor rates have increased in Nepal since 1990, but stayed the same in Mongolia since 1990.
In 2000, there were 127 million children working in Asia. By 2004, that number had fallen to 122 million. Officials are pleased that child labor rates have dropped, but they say the decline isn't happening fast enough.
Those numbers came from a recent report from the International Labor Organization (ILO). The report focused on South Asia, which includes Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and other nations. It concluded that despite the decrease in the number of working children ages five to 14, South Asia remains a child labor hot spot.
The report discussed child labor in several nations and identified Nepal as one of the worst offenders. As of 2004, almost 40 percent of Nepalese children aged 10 to 14 were working. Many continue to do strenuous physical labor in mines, quarries, and carpet factories. Still, even in Nepal, child labor rates are declining; they had been near 50 percent in 1990.
The Philippines has improved, but problems remain in some industries. Many Filipino children still work in fireworks production, deep-sea fishing, and mining. The country has a national action plan to change this.
"The [anti-child labor] laws are all there," said Filipino Undersecretary of Labor and Employment Manuel G. Imson. Imson says that the government is working with the police to enforce these laws.
In some cases, child labor has emerged where it was previously nonexistent. There were few or no child laborers in Mongolia until 1990; today, up to 10,000 children there work in gold, coal, and mineral mines. Kh. Ganbaatar, executive director of the Mongolian Employers' Federation, blames the problem on economic changes as well as on natural disasters. Several years ago, winter storms killed millions of livestock. This made it harder for families to maintain their traditional herding way of life. Many of these families were forced to send their children to work.
In fact, child labor often develops because area families cannot make ends meet and need extra income. In other cases, parents want to send their children to school but cannot afford the related fees.
"A large number of working poor means that we have a large number of people who are unable to support children [going] to school," said Panudda Boonpala, senior child labor specialist at the ILO.
In August, government representatives from nearly 40 countries as well as workers' and employers' organizations attended an ILO conference. Topics on their agenda included migration, competitiveness, productivity, and youth employment (child labor). At a session on youth employment, participants watched a video that showed children working at a gold mine in Mongolia.
The ILO says that it will try to end some of the worst forms of child labor within 10 years. Its officials point out that attitudes about working children have changed in Asia. This is contributing to the reduction in child labor rates.
"I think 10 years ago there was lots of denial," Panudda said. Still, she said, nations will not be able to end child labor unless they are willing to put a lot of effort and funding into the fight against it.

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.

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.

should phones be allowed at school
Answers
Answer:
Phones should be allowed in school because if the school does not have enough Chromebooks, students can use their phones. Furthermore, phones can help save the school from limited access to technology and save the school from wasting money. For example, if students do not have a Chromebook for a science class, they can use their phones to work on their science class. It can also help people communicate with each other, including something during an emergency. For example, parents can call their children to see where they are, how they are doing, what is going on in school, etc. That is a beneficial thing. Lastly, phones are useful for taking pictures of very long or detailed notes. For example, if a teacher writes much information about a physics unit and the student does not have enough time. The student can take a picture of the notes and move on quickly. After that, once they get home, they can write down all the notes that the teacher wrote. With that, it can help students efficiently. That is the last reason. Some people say that phones make students get distracted from learning new things. For example, a student might listen to music during class with a phone and not listen to the teacher's attention. If that happens, the teacher can take away their phone and give them back at the end of class. Some people also say that some students misuse their phones by doing something else instead of doing their school work. For example, using social media, However, if that happens, then the teachers can take the student's phone and give a warning at first. If the child still misbehaves like this, they can send the student to the office, then call their parents and tell them everything.

Answers
Answer: Using the word "speech" twice in the title, can grab the reader's attention to the specific point that is made in the brief poem.
Explanation:
Authors like to use repetition in a poem so that the main point of the text can be emphasized, and have a deeper meaning. It also is a persuasive technique. So, since the poem "Speech to the Young: Speech to the Progress-Toward" has a repetition of the word twice, at first glance, the person who is reading kind of has an idea of what the poem is talking about before they read it fully.
Answer: It is telling the reader what the poem is about.
Explanation:
Repeating words in a poem shows the main idea of it (What it's about).
So it is giving the reader a hint on what the poem is about.
