one paragraph summary of the story "From Fugitive to Freedom: The Story of the Underground Railroad" by Steven Otfinoski
Answers
Explanation:
The story of the underground railroad. A network to escape enslave African Americans in the American south to free Northern states. The Underground Railroad was the largest anti-slavery freedom movement in North America. Had over 30,000 Fugitives. Underground Railroad was created in the early 19th Century by abolitionists mainly in Phila and Pennsy. To get out of slavery and to be free or have the chance to get away the African Americans would sing a song metaphorically to tell one another things, like a screech message/code. This is how they would tell one another when to leave and when it is clear to to go.
The people who were in “charge” of the Underground Railroad made safe houses for escaped slaves to go to once they’ve made it away from they’re previous stay. One of the “leaders” was Harriet Tubman.
They would find ways to cross the boarder to Canada to be free and away from Slavery.

Based on information in the article, which best describes the difference between the child labor rates in Nepal and Mongolia?
A.Child labor rates have increased in Mongolia since 1990, but decreased in Nepal since 1990.
B.Child labor rates have increased in Mongolia since 1990, but stayed the same in Nepal since 1990.
C.Child labor rates have increased in Nepal since 1990, but decreased in Mongolia since 1990.
D.Child labor rates have increased in Nepal since 1990, but stayed the same in Mongolia since 1990.
In 2000, there were 127 million children working in Asia. By 2004, that number had fallen to 122 million. Officials are pleased that child labor rates have dropped, but they say the decline isn't happening fast enough.
Those numbers came from a recent report from the International Labor Organization (ILO). The report focused on South Asia, which includes Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and other nations. It concluded that despite the decrease in the number of working children ages five to 14, South Asia remains a child labor hot spot.
The report discussed child labor in several nations and identified Nepal as one of the worst offenders. As of 2004, almost 40 percent of Nepalese children aged 10 to 14 were working. Many continue to do strenuous physical labor in mines, quarries, and carpet factories. Still, even in Nepal, child labor rates are declining; they had been near 50 percent in 1990.
The Philippines has improved, but problems remain in some industries. Many Filipino children still work in fireworks production, deep-sea fishing, and mining. The country has a national action plan to change this.
"The [anti-child labor] laws are all there," said Filipino Undersecretary of Labor and Employment Manuel G. Imson. Imson says that the government is working with the police to enforce these laws.
In some cases, child labor has emerged where it was previously nonexistent. There were few or no child laborers in Mongolia until 1990; today, up to 10,000 children there work in gold, coal, and mineral mines. Kh. Ganbaatar, executive director of the Mongolian Employers' Federation, blames the problem on economic changes as well as on natural disasters. Several years ago, winter storms killed millions of livestock. This made it harder for families to maintain their traditional herding way of life. Many of these families were forced to send their children to work.
In fact, child labor often develops because area families cannot make ends meet and need extra income. In other cases, parents want to send their children to school but cannot afford the related fees.
"A large number of working poor means that we have a large number of people who are unable to support children [going] to school," said Panudda Boonpala, senior child labor specialist at the ILO.
In August, government representatives from nearly 40 countries as well as workers' and employers' organizations attended an ILO conference. Topics on their agenda included migration, competitiveness, productivity, and youth employment (child labor). At a session on youth employment, participants watched a video that showed children working at a gold mine in Mongolia.
The ILO says that it will try to end some of the worst forms of child labor within 10 years. Its officials point out that attitudes about working children have changed in Asia. This is contributing to the reduction in child labor rates.
"I think 10 years ago there was lots of denial," Panudda said. Still, she said, nations will not be able to end child labor unless they are willing to put a lot of effort and funding into the fight against it.
Answers
Answer: C.Child labor rates have increased in Nepal since 1990, but decreased in Mongolia since 1990.

Read the prompt.
It is well known that the United States has been on a quest to move towards “green” energy sources such as solar power and wind turbines. There are obvious benefits to these sources, in that they are renewable, cleaner, and reduce our dependence on oil and natural gas. But is that the whole story? Read the two texts that follow. Then write an informational essay describing the possible disadvantages or drawbacks regarding the production and use of “green” energy.
Before you begin planning and writing, read the two texts:
1. Potential Environmental Impacts and Obstacles of Solar Energy
2. Environmental Impacts of Wind Power
As you read the texts, think about what details from the texts you might use in your essay. After reading the texts, create a plan for your informative essay. Think about ideas, facts, definitions, details, and other information and examples you want to use. Think about how you will introduce your topic and what the main topic will be for each paragraph.
REMEMBER: A well-written informative text:
• Introduces the topic to be examined.
• Develops the topic with specific facts, details, definitions, examples, and other relevant information from both passages.
• Organizes the information and evidence effectively.
• Uses words, phrases, and/or clauses to connect and show the relationship among your ideas.
• Establishes and maintains a formal style.
• Provides a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports the information presented.

The whale Shark also known as the largest fish in the world, is a very incredible creature! This giant fish has a size of 18 -33 feet and weighs about 41,000 lbs! The alien-like fish is grey with a white belly and dots all over its back. Most Whale Sharks are spotted because they want to be left alone. This animal is like a flat cone with eyes on opposite sides of their heads, and a long tail. That is my best way to describe them. They have over 300 teeth but don’t use them! Instead they use the filter feature and swim with their mouth open to suck up the little fish in its filter. The Whale Shark gives birth to about 300 live young and stay with them for about 2 years. This animal is indeed the biggest fish in the world and one of the most interesting!

We need to be fighting wildlife crime by reporting kills and reporting when they find someone killing the rhino. One thing that only humans can do to help is to NOT KILL THEM FOR THEIR HORNS! One of the biggest reasons there are not many left is because we are killing them for their horns.

Answers
Answer:
5. One claim that is supported by evidence in the passage is that "space exploration has led to countless technological innovations that have benefited society as a whole" (paragraph 4). The author provides specific examples, such as the development of GPS and advancements in medical research, to support this claim. The evidence is reliable because it is based on factual information and can be verified through research.
6. One claim that the author makes that is not supported by evidence is that "many people believe that space exploration is a waste of money" (paragraph 2). While it is true that some people hold this belief, the author does not provide any evidence or statistics to back up this claim.
8. The likely reason the author included the 'pew research' study in the article is to provide evidence for the claim that "a majority of Americans believe that NASA is essential for the future of US space exploration" (paragraph 3). The study shows that 72% of Americans believe that NASA's role in space exploration is essential, which supports the author's point of view that space exploration is important and worth funding. By including this study, the author strengthens their argument and provides evidence to back up their claims.

It's important to include the name of the website, the date you accessed the website, and the complete website address/URL in the citation. Additionally, the name of the website should be formatted with italics or underlined to indicate that it's a title.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct way to cite an article you read online about Magnetism is:
Author, A. A. (Date of publication). Title of article. Title of website, [URL].
For example, if you read an article about Magnetism on the website "Magnetism Today" on August 5, 2005, you would cite it as follows:
Smith, J. (2005, August 5). Magnetism. Magnetism Today, https://www.magnetismtoday.com/.
Note that the author's name is not always available, in which case you would omit it from the citation. Additionally, if the article does not have a title, you would use the title of the website in place of the article title.
Here are some additional tips for citing online articles:
Always include the date you accessed the article, even if it is the same date as the publication date.
If the article is no longer available on the website where you found it, you can try searching for it on the Wayback Machine.
If you are citing a government website, you can use the Government Publishing Office (GPO) Style Guide for guidance.
If you are citing a scholarly journal article, you can use the American Psychological Association (APA) Style Guide for guidance.

Read the article "The History of O'Hare International Airport" and answer the question.
Planning for the construction of O'Hare International Airport began in 1945 when a committee chose Orchard Field as the location of the future airport. In 1955, the airport opened to commercial air traffic and O'Hare International Airport served as a hub for travelers throughout the world.
To respond to the increasing number of passengers, the airport expanded. O'Hare added a fifth runway and opened a terminal for international travel. Passengers could take flights to other countries and throughout the United States. The amount of land used by the airport grew to about 7,200 acres. This expansion included airplane hangars, cargo buildings, and even a post office. Next, there was an expressway built to connect O'Hare International Airport with downtown Chicago. People could travel to and from the airport quickly and easily, making it a desirable location. Finally, the main terminal building and parking lot were completed. These expansions led to a greater number of passengers. In 1962, 10 million passengers traveled through the airport that year alone. O'Hare was officially the world's busiest airport.
O'Hare's growth was accompanied by innovation. In order to increase efficiency, the airport developed a task force that allowed three runways to be used at the same time in 1976. The Passenger Facility Charge, which charged passengers for using the airport, was introduced in 1990. This money was used to improve and modernize the airport. The Airport Transit System was created to help transport passengers between terminals in 1993.
In 1996, the O'Hare Noise Compatibility Commission was created to help surrounding neighborhoods deal with aircraft noise. To aid with the O'Hare Modernization Program, a Sustainable Design Manual was created in 2003. This cutting-edge document helped the airport think about the environment during the modernization process. The principles outlined in the manual were later used in a similar document in August 2009 that promoted environmental sustainability at the airport. Over the years, O'Hare International Airport has grown and innovated to manage its expansion.
