Read lines 45-59 of the book scary tales: What is Torrance's view about telling children scary stories? What is one counterargument that she provides?
Write the claim, counterclaim and text evidence

PLS HELP ME I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answer:

Claim: Children need to be frightened. We all do. It’s an emotion that was given to all of us and it should be exercised. When you don’t exercise it, you lose your sense of fear.

Counterargument: A lot of people have told me I really shouldn’t tell children scary things.

Rebuttal: Well, children can frighten themselves without  your help. When they’re alone in bed they hear things and  they see things. So I just help them along.

Explanation:

It is often thought that children need to be frightened. However, what this argument fails to consider is that Torrence grew up listening to scary tales from her grandfather and therefore has adapted to fear. In the text, it says that Torrence was afraid of keyholes because her grandfather told her in the dark monsters would lock her there. This shows at some point the author herself changed in the way she thought about scary tales but only because someone else scared her. Although children can frighten themselves without scary tales it is of their own volition. This means that children, either way, will never lose their sense of fear as a personal experience. Scary tales teaches one to be more cautious.

"I will now add what I do not like. First the omission of a bill of rights providing clearly and without the aid of sophisms for freedom of religion, freedom of the press, protection against standing armies, restriction against monopolies, the eternal and unremitting force of the habeas corpus laws, and trials by jury in all matters of fact triable by the laws of the land and not by the law of nations. To say, as Mr. Wilson does that a bill of rights was not necessary because all is reserved in the case of the general government which is not given, while in the particular ones all is given which is not reserved, might do for the audience to whom it was addressed, but is surely a gratis dictum, opposed by strong inferences from the body of the instrument, as well as from the omission of the clause of our present confederation which had declared that in express terms. It was a hard conclusion to say because there has been no uniformity among the states as to the cases triable by jury, because some have been so incautious as to abandon this mode of trial, therefore the more prudent states shall be reduced to the same level of calamity. It would have been much more just & wise to have concluded the other way that as most of the states had judiciously preserved this palladium, those who had wandered should be brought back to it, and to have established general right instead of general wrong. Let me add that a bill of rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on earth, general or particular, and what no just government should refuse or rest on inference."

25 POINTS! In a group discussion, a student says that Frida Kahlo would never have given up on her artwork. Which statement is the best response to this?

I think so, too, because it is obvious that she would never have given up on her artwork.
I agree, because painting helped her express herself and overcome the troubles in her life.
If Frida Kahlo had not kept painting, the art world would have lost out on a great artist.
Maybe Frida Kahlo would have found something that was just as important to her as painting.

Based on the excerpt, which best describes Dicey's
mood?
Read the excerpt from Homecoming
At half past eight, Dicey herded everybody back into the
mall, to use the bathrooms they had found earlier. Later,
Sammy and Maybeth fell asleep easily, curled up along
the back seat. James moved up to the front with Dicey.
Dicey couldn't see how they were both to sleep in the
front seat, but she supposed they would manage it.
James sat stiftly, gripping the wheel. James had a
narrow head and sharp features, a nose that pointed out,
pencil-thin eyebrows, a narrow chin. Dicey studied him
in the darkening car. They were parked so far from the
nearest lamppost that they were in deep shadows.
With her brothers and sisters near, with the two youngest
asleep in the back seat, sitting as they were in a cocoon
of darkness, she should feel safe. But she didn't. Though
it was standing still the car seemed to be flying down a
highway, going too fast. Even the dark inside of it was
O She is very worried about what would happen to her
family
She is in denial about her family's present
circumstances
O She is trying to stay upbeat and carefree whenever
possible
She is having a hard time feeling safe in almost all
situations.
