Persuasive essays have both facts and opinions
options:
a. true
b. false
Why do persuassive essays use facts and opinions?While stories arouse their feelings and prompt them to act, facts help to justify a purchase, gift, decision, change in behavior … whatever action is taken. When you present facts, you help the more emotional reader validate her decision. This one-two punch is a powerful persuasive writing technique.Opinions backed up with evidence help lead the reader along the writer's pathways of thought; making the writing more convincing as a whole. This evidence can take a wide variety of forms, ranging from personal anecdotes and quotations to statistics and references to scientific studies.

AC vs. DC
In the 1880s, the War of the Currents began. Thomas Edison developed direct current, or DC, a type of electricity that flows in one direction. By 1887, DC was in use around the United States. It had some drawbacks, though. Converting it to lower or higher voltages was difficult; that is, the current's force couldn't be changed easily. Transmitted at the low voltage needed for use in homes and businesses, it lost power after traveling only a mile. Meanwhile, Nikola Tesla was working with alternating current, or AC. AC reverses direction many times per second and can be changed to different voltages. At high voltage, it can be transmitted efficiently, traveling hundreds of miles with little energy loss. Because of its advantages, AC triumphed by the end of the nineteenth century.
What is the main idea of the passage?
AC has distinct advantages over DC, so AC won the War of the Currents.
AC reverses direction and can be converted to lower or higher voltage.
What is the main idea?
Answer: "AC has distinct advantages over DC, so AC won the War of the currents."
The main and the central idea about the passage is (1)AC has distinct advantages over DC, so AC won the War of the Currents.
Explanation:
The given passage talks about the War between Currents.
There are two types of currents being talked about- DC and AC. The passage tells us that the use of DC was prevalent in the 18th centaury and after development of the AC current, it took over DC and was then used all over the world because it had distinct advantages.
Therefore, the main idea of the passage is AC has distinct advantages over DC, so AC won the War of the Currents.

Read this passage from "Types of Volcanoes" and then look at the image.
Volcanoes are structures formed around openings (vents) in the ground where molten lava, ash, or gas escape from inside the Earth. We have all heard of lava, but not everyone knows how it forms. Deep inside the Earth, rock that melted long ago beneath the Earth's crust forms magma, a very hot liquid that mixes with dissolved gases and crystals. When this magma flows up above Earth's surface, it is called lava.

Remeber the Oracle sharing the prphecy with Percy Jackson?
Do you believe everyone has a destiny or a plan for their life that they will fill no matter what? Explain your answer with 5-8 sentences.
Explanation:
A prophecy, or prophecies in general, is a prediction of events about to happen in the future. Prophecies can appear in a number of ways, but almost all are cryptic and their true meaning will not become clear until after the events of the prophecy have come to pass. Also, those with the ability to see the future are unable to reveal what a prophecy means, as giving the answer would make the answer irrelevant (meaning that the events in the prophecy could change if the events are told). It is also said that trying to figure out what a prophecy means or trying to force a prophecy to come to pass may result in disaster.
The most common way for a prophecy to be told is from an oracle, most notably the Oracle of Delphi. Even in ancient times, people would come from all over Greece and beyond to see the Oracle, who would speak the prophecies of Apollo. Over time the spirit of the Oracle went from host to host, eventually arriving in America.

In this activity, you will analyze theme, characterization, and Dickens’s use of dramatic irony in chapter 1 of A Christmas Carol.
Part A
Themes are key ideas that stand out or are repeated in a text. Identify and explain one important theme that you noticed in chapter 1. Include evidence from the text to support your response.
Answer:
One thing theme that was shown in chapter one is that scrooge appearently knew that Old Marley and never seemed to tell anybody.
Explanation:
The chapter says "Scrooge knew he was dead? Of course he did. How could it be otherwise? Scrooge and he were partners for I don’t know how many years. Scrooge was his sole executor, his sole administrator, his sole assign, his sole residuary legatee, his sole friend, and sole mourner. And even Scrooge was not so dreadfully cut up by the sad event, but that he was an excellent man of business on the very day of the funeral, and solemnised it with an undoubted bargain". The reasoning was not really specified on why he never told anyone that he knew about Old Marley's death but ever since people found out, he was considered a suspect in the case.
I hope this helped! :)
One recurring element in Chapter One of A Christmas Carol would be that Scrooge appears to have known about Old Marley but never told anyone.
What is A Christmas Carol about?A Christmas Carol was written during a period when the British were exploring and re-evaluating past Christmas traditions, including carols, and newer customs such as cards and Christmas trees. He was influenced by the experiences of his youth and by the Christmas stories of other authors, including Washington Irving and Douglas Jerrold.
Dickens had written three Christmas stories before the novella, and was inspired following a visit to the Field Lane Ragged School, one of several establishments for London's street children. The treatment of the poor and the ability of a selfish man to redeem himself by transforming into a more sympathetic character are the key themes of the story.
There is discussion among academics as to whether this is a fully secular story, or if it is a Christian allegory.

Have you ever witnessed something amazing, shocking or surprising and found when describing the event that your story seems to change the more you tell it? Have you ever experienced a time when you couldn't really describe something you saw in a way that others could understand? If so, you may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials. New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things.
First, memory is vague. Imagine your room at home or a classroom you see every day. Most likely, you could describe the room very generally. You could name the color of the walls, the floors, the decorations. But the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. Memory tends to save a blurry image of what we have seen rather than specific details. So when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall when faced with several tall people. There are lots of different kinds of "tall."
Second, memory uses general knowledge to fill in gaps. Our brains reconstruct events and scenes when we remember something. To do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. For example, one day at a library you go to quite frequently, you witness an argument between a library patron and one of the librarians. Later, when telling a friend about the event, your brain may remember a familiar librarian behind the desk rather than the actual participant simply because it is recreating a familiar scene. In effect, your brain is combining memories to help you tell the story.
Third, your memory changes over time. It also changes the more you retell the story. Documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. Research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is. You may have noticed this yourself. The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add, or what your brain wants to add, to the account. You may also notice that you drop certain details from previous tellings of the story.

With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. Did you really break your mother's favorite vase when you were three? Was that really your father throwing rocks into the river with you when you were seven? The human brain may be quite remarkable indeed. When it comes to memory, however, we may want to start carrying video cameras if we want to record the true picture.
Which line from the text best explains the main reason memories change?
Most likely, you could describe the room very generally.
The more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is
The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add
You may also notice that you drop certain details
