Read the paragraph. [1] Studies have shown that kids who eat healthy food have more energy. [2] When students are more energized, they get better grades. [3] Still, half the students at Lincoln High eat pizza at its lunchtime. [4] The school plans to start offering healthier options like salads and fruit as an alternative. What is the cause of the agreement error in sentence 3?
a. gender
b. number
c. person
d. antecedent
Final answer:
The agreement error in sentence 3 of the specified paragraph is a number agreement issue, where 'half the students' is a plural noun and the verb should be 'eat' instead of 'eats'.
Explanation:
The cause of the agreement error in sentence 3 of the paragraph is related to the word number. Referencing 'half the students', which is a plural noun phrase, the verb should also be plural to maintain proper subject-verb agreement. However, 'eats' is a singular verb, so it should be corrected to 'eat' to correctly align with the plural subject 'half the students'. Thus, the correct answer to the question is b. number.

Read this passage from "The Black Cat":This hideous murder accomplished, I set myself forthwith, and with entire deliberation, to the task of concealing the body.

Many projects entered my mind.What can the reader infer about the narrator from the businesslike tone of this passage?A. That he is a clever and highly intelligent manB. That he is without morals and possibly insaneC. That he can set aside his emotions and get the job doneD. That he is a good person caught up in a bad situation
In this passage from "The Black Cat", by Edgar Allan Poe, what the reader can infer about the narrator from the businesslike tone of this passage is B. That he is without morals and possibly insane.

In this case, the businesslike tone when the narrator refers to the murder and the concealing of the body makes the reader feel that he has no regret for what he has done and so he can be a man without morals and probably insane.
What does Adams ask her daughter to keep secret in "letter to her daughter from the white house"?
Final answer:
The question refers to Abigail Adams's letter to her daughter from the White House, which historically is tied to her advocacy for women's rights, although this specific letter is not directly provided in the texts.
Explanation:
The student is asking about Abigail Adams's letter to her daughter from the White House, which is not directly referenced in the provided texts. However, the texts do reference a famous letter written by Abigail Adams to her husband, John Adams, in 1776 during the writing of the Declaration of Independence. In that letter, Abigail Adams famously asked her husband to 'remember the ladies' and give them legal recognition and rights. Although the historic text of Abigail Adams writing to her daughter from the White House is not directly provided, we can infer from her advocacy and later writings that she likely communicated ideas and requests that she held privately to her family, potentially including her views on women's rights and the management of family affairs in John's absence.

C)Ms. Jackson's performance compensates for her relative inexperience.
Dear Director Robert S. Mueller, III:
I am currently a Special Agent located in Baltimore, and am in the process of requesting transfer to NCAVC. Although I have been informed that these highly competitive positions are normally reserved for Special Agents with more experience than I have yet accumulated, I feel that my exceptional performance in the field warrants my consideration.
After graduating at the top of my class at Quantico, I promptly demonstrated excellent ability by solving my first assignment within a matter of days. Although the case had been open for almost six months, information I derived by scrutinizing the financial records of the key suspects led to their immediate arrest and conviction. Since then, my record has improved. As Assistant Director Walter Schmidt will attest, I have demonstrated the commitment, ability, and expertise of a Special Agent well beyond the expectations my relatively short experience would normally incur.
In particular, my ability to analyze information quickly and accurately�often resulting in extremely short case duration�lends itself to the needs of NCAVC. Time and again I have been called on in situations of extreme duress and apparent dead ends and produced results in a short period of time. In fact, several Special Agents in the NCAVC have called upon my abilities and expertise in a number of situations, in which I have produced the results I am accustomed to (see references).
Although I am going through regular channels in my application, I would greatly appreciate a quick review of my case history and demonstrated performance and perhaps a good word from your direction. I will contact you within a week to answer any questions. Thank you very much for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Aurora Jackson
