Which sentence best expresses the main idea of paragraph 6?
A. “On the basis of her research, Baumrind has recommended that parents who want to raise competent, socially responsible, independent children should do several things.”
B. “Teach by example, that is, behave the way you want your children to behave.
C. “Reward behaviors you want to encourage and punish behaviors you want to discourage, giving explanations in both cases.”
D. “Demand achievement and the meeting of standards, while being open to hearing the child’s point of view”.

Answer:

its c

when Lida had something to do, she didn’t rest until it was

done. The reader can infer from this that Lida is responsible. Hattie, in contrast, walks into the hotel through the parlor doors, even though she had been told not to. When scolded, Hattie tells Lida, “You worry too much.” The reader can infer from this that Hattie does not worry as much as Lida. Later,

Hattie is determined to take the train tracks to save time, while Lida worries that this way is too dangerous. The reader can infer from this that Hattie is carefree—even careless. Therefore c is correct.

The characters Hattie and Lida are not directly referenced in the provided excerpts. Without additional context, it is not possible to accurately describe how they differ. Additional information is needed for a proper comparison.

The student wants to know how Hattie and Lida differ based on the excerpts provided. However, without explicit references to Hattie or Lida in the excerpts, determining the specific differences between them is challenging. The information provided focuses on various characters, each with distinct qualities. Joe Dagget is compared to a bear inadvertently causing chaos; Louisa is a woman who accepts her situation with docility; Lucy Dare is seen as submissive yet possibly hiding a strong will; a little girl described by Mr. Mortimer Jones shows early signs of a commanding personality; and Mrs. Harvey laments over the social success of other girls.

Based on these descriptions, we can infer about personality traits and roles of women in society, but not directly about Hattie and Lida. None of the literary characters mentioned clearly match the names given, therefore, none of the answer options from A to E can be definitively selected based on the information provided.

Should the characters of Hattie and Lida be found somewhere within these excerpts under different names or circumstances, then one would need additional context to make an accurate comparison and determine how they differ. Not having access to the full text or context in which Hattie and Lida are mentioned makes it impossible to complete the task effectively. It is essential to have a clear reference to the characters in question to provide an accurate and informative comparison.

The correct placement of commas in the sentence is option B: The cloudy, moonless sky hampered the lost hikers lumbering down the steep, treacherous trail.

The infinitive 'to draw' in the sentence is used as an adverb. It modifies the verb 'must', clarifying the condition that has to be met before the action of drawing pay can take place.

In the sentence 'I have a job and I must complete it before I can draw my pay,' the word 'complete' is a verb. However, the phrase 'to draw' is the infinitive used in a subsidiary manner to explain what must occur before pay can be collected. An infinitive is the base form of a verb, often preceeded by the word 'to'. In this context, the infinitive is used as an adverb because it modifies the verb 'must' by clarifying the condition that needs to be met for the action to be taken. This requirement (completing the job) alters the manner in which the action (drawing pay) will occur. Hence, the infinitive is used as an adverb in this sentence.

However, his wife is not as enthusiastic as her husband, she is angry throughout the time in the cafe giving a cold shoulder to everyone.  The narrator gets angry with Sonja’s behavior and when Tilo asks them for a good hotel to stay at, the narrator suggests Mrs. Fraser’s lodge.

Explanation:

Seeking places of agreement is the most constructive way to lead the discussion. It's a positive feedback that will help both sides feel that their ideas are productive and are being appreciated. If I am discussing a matter with someone who holds opposite views, both of us can benefit from the fact that our views have something in common. It helps me realize that if the other side is right, it doesn't necessarily mean that I'm wrong - and vice versa. This intersection of ideas can then lead us both to a third option that might just be the solution.

Explanation:

When reading paragraphs 3 and 4 Muir uses many different words to show his views on nature. He has a positive view towards nature as he uses words such as "beautiful Calypso" "Cried for joy" "simple purity" and "flower people."  Each of these words show a positive view towards nature as they contain words such as "beautiful" or "joy." He then says in paragraph 4 "It seems wonderful that so frail and lovely a plant has such power over human hearts." He is showing how such frail and lovely plants can have such a power over human feelings. He has many more views on nature and even shows in later paragraphs how other people might feel. He shares many of his views on nature throughout his story and makes it as perfect as can be.

Thx so much! Hope this helps anyone out there!

Answer: Slum tourism does not show the splendour and beauty that can be seen in most tourist brochures.

Explanation:

The countries that people travel to and their tourist routes are mostly made up of visits to historical sites, museums, the city centre, famous attractions, restaurants and so on. In these places, the state gives particular importance and invests enormous funds precisely because of tourists. On the other hand, there is slum tourism.

It is an unconventional tourist route that involves visits to remote parts of the city, places where the poor generally live. One of the most famous slum tourist destinations in the world is the favelas in San Paulo, which are visited annually by over 50000 fans of this type of tourism. This type of tourism developed primarily in the 1990s in southern Africa, when the black population led tourists to show them in what conditions they lived because of apartheid.

" While slum tourism and historical or other urban tourism share some commonalities in their urban setting, economic contributions, and potential for cultural exchange and education, they differ significantly in their thematic focus, the nature of the tourist experience, and the ethical implications of their practices.

The similarities between slum tourism and historical or other urban forms of tourism include the fact that they both involve visiting urban areas, can contribute to the local economy, and provide educational and cultural experiences for tourists. The differences lie in the purpose, nature of the experience, and the ethical implications, with slum tourism often focusing on contemporary poverty and being critiqued for potential exploitation and voyeurism.

Similarities:

1. Urban Focus: Both slum tourism and historical or other urban tourism forms are centered around urban environments. Tourists visit areas within cities to experience different aspects of urban life.

2. Economic Impact: Tourism in general, including slum tourism and historical tourism, can have a significant economic impact on the local community. It can create jobs and generate income for local businesses and residents.

3. Educational Value: Both forms of tourism offer educational opportunities. Slum tourism can educate visitors about contemporary social issues, while historical tourism provides insights into the past and the evolution of urban areas.

4. Cultural Exchange: Tourists engaging in both slum and historical tourism have the chance to interact with local populations, learn about different ways of life, and experience diverse cultures.

Differences:

1. Purpose and Themes: Slum tourism is characterized by visits to impoverished areas, with a focus on understanding contemporary poverty and social issues. In contrast, historical tourism emphasizes the exploration of a city's heritage, landmarks, and historical events.

2. Nature of Experience: The experiences offered by slum tourism are often gritty and confronting, aiming to expose tourists to the realities of life in economically disadvantaged communities. Historical or other urban tourism typically presents a more polished narrative, focusing on the aesthetic and historical significance of sites.

3. Ethical Considerations: Slum tourism raises complex ethical questions about exploitation, consent, and the voyeuristic nature of observing others' hardships for entertainment. Historical tourism, while not without its ethical considerations, generally does not face the same level of scrutiny regarding the potential for harm to the communities being visited.

4. Representation and Perception: Slum tourism can influence how slums and their inhabitants are perceived, potentially reinforcing stereotypes and oversimplifying complex social issues. Historical tourism, on the other hand, tends to focus on positive contributions to civilization and cultural achievements."

The inferences about the daughter supported by the passage are B, D, and E because she wants her mother to feel, differently about her, she is motivated by the fun of playing a game, and she wants to influence her mother’s behavior.

The passage suggests that the daughter's behavior of pretending to be bored and counting the bellows of the foghorns while her mother drills her in other areas is a deliberate attempt to influence her mother's behavior and feelings towards her.

The daughter's actions of playing a game with herself, trying to see if her mother would give up on her before a certain number of bellows, indicate a desire to engage in a playful activity and test her mother's persistence.

The daughter's behavior reflects a nuanced approach where she is not solely focused on counting bellows but rather using this activity as a means to interact with her mother and potentially alter their dynamic.

Why the other options are not correct:

Option A (Her primary motive is to count bellows) is not the primary motive as the counting of bellows is a means to an end, which is to influence her mother's behavior.

Option C (She feels a strong need for independence) is not strongly supported by the passage as the focus is more on the daughter's interaction with her mother through the game she plays.

The passage emphasizes the daughter's playful and strategic approach to engaging with her mother rather than a deep-seated need for independence.

The complete question is:

So now on nights when my mother presented her tests, I performed listlessly, my head propped on one arm. I pretended to be bored. And I was. I got so bored that I started counting the bellows of the foghorns out on the bay while my mother drilled me in other areas. The sound was comforting and reminded me of the cow jumping over the moon. And the next day, I played a game with myself, seeing if my mother would give up on me before eight bellows. After a while I usually counted only one, maybe two bellows at most. At last she was beginning to give up hope. –“Two Kinds,” Amy Tan

Which inferences about the daughter does this passage best support? Check all that apply.

A. Her primary motive is to count bellows.

B. She wants her mother to feel differently about her.

C. She feels a strong need for independence.

D. She is motivated by the fun of playing a game.
