Read this passage about seals and sea lions and then answer the question that follows:
From a distance, they both look like seals, but once you get up close you can actually see the difference. Seals and sea lions are both fish-loving mammals. Moreover, handy flippers propel them both through the water. But while seals have a tiny opening on the side of their heads, sea lions have actual earflaps. Furthermore, sea lions use their back flippers like feet to scoot along the beach. On the other hand, seals must wriggle and roll to get ahead. On the whole, when you visit a zoo or theme park, it's the honking, barking, funny sea lion you're likely to find playing to the crowds for fishy treats, earflaps and all.
In the passage about seals and sea lions, which transition is used to show a contrast?
1.But
2.Furthermore
3.On the whole
4.Moreover
Answer:
4. Moreover
Explanation:
Transitions are used to focus on the relationships among the ideas. They are used to build a path on which the direction of the sentences wants the readers to go to. The ideas are connected logically with the help of the transitions. Logical arguments are placed which helps in signifying the propagated ideas. 'However', 'for example,' 'similarly', and 'moreover' are some of the examples of transitions.
In the given excerpt, the transition that has been used to add an idea is 'moreover'. The third sentence begins with 'moreover' which had introduced an additional thought about the seals and sea lions.

Which words in this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence are emotionally charged?
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

Who wrote "fed up with jim crow laws, / people who are cruel and afraid, / who lynch and run, / who are scared of me and me of them"?
The poet who wrote the lines about being "fed up with Jim Crow laws" is Langston Hughes. His work, along with other poets like Claude McKay, depicted the racial segregation and oppression African Americans faced and shaped the historical understanding of that period.
The lines "fed up with Jim Crow laws, / people who are cruel and afraid, / who lynch and run, / who are scared of me and me of them" are written by poet Langston Hughes. These lines reflect the experiences of African Americans under the oppressive system of Jim Crow, which mandated racial segregation and upheld inequalities between whites and blacks. Hughes' poetry often addressed the social and personal struggles associated with being African American in a segregated society. Similarly, the poet Claude McKay, who wrote during the same era, encapsulated the feelings of resistance against racial oppression, which was a common theme among African American writers of that period. Their works contribute to the understanding of the historical context of racial segregation, emphasizing the importance of the Civil Rights Movement that sought to dismantle these unjust systems.
Read the passage. I lazily flipped through the pages of my textbook and yawned. “Too bad I can’t be more like my brother,” I thought. He is very studious and a bit of a perfectionist, and he’s always anxious to learn new things. It’s hard to believe that anyone can be that focused. But me? Well, that’s a different story. I am much more likely to spend my time daydreaming.

Explanation:
Explain why Jackson waits until the end of the story to revel the conflict. How would the story be less effective if the conflict were revealed earlier ?
Answer and explanation:
Jackson's reason behind his behaviour of waiting until the end of the story to reveal the conflict, may have something to do with a tendecy to drive the reader into a dramatic plot twist that wasn't at all expected, a sudden tone change, as the lottery wasn't seen as something that could be wrong, was accepeted and had a high participation from people. So this is all a sense of town's traditions manipulation.
Nights and Dragons—
From the memoir of author Abigail Prynne
I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother. She always told me that "people who believe that science is the answer to everything are missing out on everything else." With her words in mind, I searched some more. There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed.
Writing in a complete sentence, what is the main idea of the passage?
Answer:
Because dragons are present in many documents from many different cultures, and because science cannot always explain everything, it is possible that dragons existed at some point.
Explanation:
This is an example of how this passage could be summarized in one sentence. In this passage, the author tells us that she became interested in finding out whether dragons were real or not. She also tells us that she had reason to believe that dragons could be real, particularly because they are mentioned in a variety of documents from many different cultures.
Answer: Well, since dragons haven't been confirmed to exist yet due to scientists not being able to find clues such as bones or marks on the land. But due to scientists not being able to explain anything and dragons being pretended in several cultures and documents, they might have existed at one point.
