PLEASE HELP!

Emma was having a wonderful time at summer camp. She’d made friends with
all the girls in her cabin, and she was having taking part in all the activities, and
she even secretly enjoyed some of the chores.
One day, a package arrived at camp from Emma’s grandmother. The other girls
in the cabin were excited about what the package contained, and watched as
Emma opened it. Inside was a box of her grandmother’s homemade caramels,
which were Emma’s favorite. She was about to eat one of them when one of the
other girls asked if she could have a caramel. Then the other girls asked the
same question. Emma counted the caramels. There were ten in the box. There
were eight other girls in the cabin, so if she gave each of them one caramel,
there would only be two left for her. She thought about keeping them for herself.
After all, they were her favorite, and her grandmother had sent them to her. As
much as she loved the caramels, though, she also wanted her friends to get a
chance to try them. So she gave each girl a caramel. That night they all got a
treat, and Emma was glad she’d shared her favorite treat with her new friends.

Upon the hills of Garlingtown

Beneath the summer sky,

In many pleasant pastures

On sunny slopes and high,

5 Their skins abloom with dusty blue,

Asleep, the berries lie.


And all the lads1 of Garlingtown,

And all the lasses2 too,

Still climb the tranquil hillsides,

10 A merry, barefoot crew;

Still homeward plod with unfilled pails

And mouths of berry blue.


And all the birds of Garlingtown,

When flocking back to nest,

15 Remember well the patches

Where berries are the best;

They pick the ripest ones at dawn

And leave the lads the rest.


Upon the hills of Garlingtown

20 When berry-time was o’er,

I looked into the sunset,

And saw an open door,

And from the hills of Garlingtown

I went, and came no more.

The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

Which writing approach would best address the purpose and audience of this prompt

Read these paragraphs and answer the question that follows:


In 2008, more than one million American students gave nearly 20 million service hours to their communities. They made a difference in people’s lives and learned some important life lessons in the process. Organizations, including schools, are actively promoting service for all citizens as a way to be involved, help others, and improve themselves.

Service is helping other people and being active in your community. For example, one group of teens planted a community garden with their friends. They grow a variety of vegetables. The garden requires regular care. The teens donate the produce to a local soup kitchen. Workers there use the produce to help feed people in the community. By tending the garden and donating their produce, the teens are actively helping make life a bit better for others in their community.

Service is valuable in ways that cannot be measured in dollars. People volunteer or serve others without expecting money or gifts in return. Service is not about earning money. It is not just collecting money to give to a group. It is about action and contributing to the common good. The people who serve as well as those who receive help benefit in many ways that are more important than money or gifts. For example, a soup kitchen provides essential food to people who may otherwise go hungry. The soup kitchen is extremely valuable for those struggling to get enough to eat. Those serving learn about compassion and how helping others can improve life for all.

Millions of Americans are making society better for themselves and for others. They are participating citizens in their community, raising up those who are less fortunate. In return, they become better people who can understand the perspectives and needs of others, which are invaluable and important qualities of good citizens.

Which sentence is a supporting detail for paragraph three?
Service is valuable in ways that cannot be measured in dollars.
Service is helping other people and being active in your community.
Workers there use the produce to help feed people in the community.
The soup kitchen is extremely valuable for those struggling to get enough to eat.

WHAT DO ALL THE LETTERS IN T.A.R.G.E.T mean (critical thinking)

Read the excerpts from the article Skara Brae :

Excerpt 1

The people made many things, including pottery, stone tools, and bone jewelry. Curiously, no evidence of weaponry was ever found, leading archaeologists to believe that Skara Brae was a peaceful place.

Excerpt 2

Skara Brae was inhabited for approximately six hundred years, at which point, it was abandoned. Many theories exist about what happened to the people of Skara Brae. One of the most popular theories is that a terrible storm, similar to the one that would uncover the remains of the village in 1850, struck and drove the people from their homes. This is supported by the fact that so many possessions, including valuables like jewelry, were left behind.

Why does the author use the chosen text structure for the excerpts ? (2 points)

Excerpt 1 uses a cause and effect text structure to explain how archaeologists developed their idea about the community being nonviolent, and Excerpt 2 uses a cause and effect structure to explain archaeologists' theory about why Skara Brae was abandoned.

Excerpt 1 uses a cause and effect text structure to explain how the people of Skara Brae made things, and Excerpt 2 uses a cause and effect structure to explain why storms in Skara Brae were serious.

Excerpt 1 uses a comparison text structure to explain how the people of Skara Brae have similar interests, and Excerpt 2 uses a comparison structure to explain the similarity between weather patterns in Skara Brae.

Excerpt 1 uses a problem and solution text structure to explain the issues of violence the people of Skara Brae faced, and Excerpt 2 uses a problem and solution structure to explain the dangers storms pose to communities like Skara Brae.
