How has America changed over time? Is the United States handling the current refugee crisis differently than during World War 2 and the Holocaust?
Answer:
America has changed a lot over time. It was once a nation of immigrants, but in recent years, it has become more and more difficult for refugees to come to the United States. During World War II, the United States took in millions of refugees, but today, the number of refugees admitted each year is much smaller.
There are a number of reasons for this change. One reason is that the United States is now a much more diverse country than it was in the past. In the early 20th century, the majority of Americans were white, but today, the country is home to people from all over the world. This diversity has made some Americans less welcoming to refugees, who they see as outsiders.
Another reason for the change is that the United States is now facing a number of its own problems, such as economic inequality and terrorism. These problems have made some Americans less willing to help refugees, who they see as a drain on resources.
Despite these challenges, there are still many Americans who are willing to help refugees. There are a number of organizations that work to help refugees, and there are also many individual Americans who volunteer their time to help refugees adjust to life in the United States.
It is important to remember that refugees are people just like us. They are fleeing violence and persecution, and they are looking for a safe place to live. We should all do our part to help them.

Select the correct text in the passage.
Which sentence contains the main idea of the paragraph?
Now you can stop feeling guilty about that bite of chocolate you had for dessert. Chocolate has been found to be a cause of weight gain. But
chocolate does have some health benefits. However, don't reach for that chocolate cake just yet. Researchers found that only people who had
an average of one ounce of dark chocolate per day received the health benefit. Dark chocolate is full of flavonoids, which can help prevent
diseases. Flavonoids have been found to decrease cholesterol and reduce the blood clots that cause strokes. Flavonoids also boost a natural
chemical in your brain called serotonin. Low serotonin can cause depression. That's probably why eating chocolate boosts mood and feelings
of well-being.
the sentence that contains the main idea is that "chocolate has been found to be a cause of weight gain."
the paragraph is pointing out the fact that it has been found to cause weight gain but the paragraph goes on to say that some of the researchers don't dive deep enough.
i hope that was helpful :D
"Chocolate has been found to be a cause of weight gain" OR! "But chocolate does have some health benefits" <-- this one most likely because the rest is about healthy stuff i dont know lol good luck! <3

School garden supporters say that the gardens teach to the whole child. One of the strongest benefits is to social and emotional learning. Research shows that schools with a social and emotional learning program can increase test scores by 11% and positive classroom behavior by 9%.
School garden opponents say that the gardens take away from academic time. As other countries’ test scores are on the rise, America’s test scores continue to lag behind. The only true way to achieve financial success is to be well educated. Opponents say that no one wants gardens banned; they just don’t think school is the place for this type of learning.
Write a brief summary of the claims on both sides of the argument. Are these strong or weak claims? Make sure to use textual evidence to support your writing. Your answers should be between 4-6 sentences long.
Answer:
All though the two arguments are correct, I lean towards the 2nd argument. School gardens do not improve student's scores as they would if the student was well educated. The student will not learn from a garden. The surroundings will be better but can not help them. As it states in the second claim "America’s test scores continue to lag behind". Even if we have school gardens. But, the first argument is right in a way if the student is already well educated and knows the curriculum there surrounding may improve their learning by wanting to learn because they are more comfortable. These claims are strong because they do have facts and claims from others. They lean towards one side and are informative.
Hope this helps. : )

Write a compare-and-contrast analysis of how Greg Ridley from "The Treasure of Lemon Brown" changes from the beginning of the story to the end.
If you put
1) At the beginning of the story, Greg Ridley is in a bad mood, and is dreading receiving a lecture from his father, as he knows what the result will be.
2) At the end of the story, Greg is anticipating a lecture from his dad once again, but this time, he smiles at the thought of it.
3) This change occurs because Lemon Brown tells Greg about how he lost his own son and that the lessons and things a father gives a son should be treasured. Greg realizes this is true, and it shows in his character shift at the end of the story.

If the story of Hercules was set in modern times, what would be a superhuman labor he might be asked to perform?
Answer:
Explanation:
Well I don't know what others would give him to do, but I would give him the job of cleaning up one of the ocean floor.
People have been dumping plastic bottles into the ocean for many years. I am gold there is a place in the Pacific that is the size of Texas that has nothing but plastic bottles in its perimeter. I have no idea how thick it is, but it is a job worth taking on (to clean up this mess). Then if I were he, I would tell people that if they don't clean up the mess, he will dump all the plastic on the actual state of Texas.
I found this..
In place of defeating the Nemean Lion, our hero develops a room temperature superconductor. Just as with the impenetrable Nemean Lion’s skin, which Herakles went on to wear in his subsequent adventures, this provides an indispensable resource that fuels success in the rest of the labors: money.
Instead of slaying the Lernaean Hydra, our hero develops an experimental prototype microprocessor based on the aforementioned room temperature superconductor to make quantum computing a reality. In legend, Herakles used the hydra’s poison on arrows to produce a tool that facilitated many of his future labors. That’s what our hero’s quantum computing device does. In fact, let’s call it Lernaea.
Rather than capturing the Cerneian hind, our hero uses Lernaea to develop a different crytographic scheme that isn’t based upon large prime numbers—which is what modern cryptography has revolved around for several decades. Boom.
No Erymanthian boar here: but let’s remember our hero is an inventor with truly genius materials science and electrical engineering skills—who else works in superconductors?—and now creates a new heat-resistant material to replace the compound used in the old US Space Shuttle program. Sure, the program’s over, but the US will once again reach for the stars in reusable vessels, and that’s where our hero’s substance will be invaluable.
So instead of cleaning the Augean stables, he proceeds to use Lernaea to become the first-ever gold winner of the Loebner Prize (Turing Test prize). This prize, awarded to a team capable of passing the Turing Test, has only ever been awarded at the bronze level since its inception. That’s 2+ decades without a silver winner, never mind a gold.
Those Stymphalian birds aren’t relevant in 2019: now it’s all about cybersecurity. Lernaea’s superior computing power easily puts an end to cyberhostage demands by the dozens.
I’m not sure anyone cares about the Cretan bull these days, how about superior materials science leading to a better autonomous bipedal walking robot? Cuz that’s what our hero does.
The mares of Diomedes isn’t a “now” thing but I’ll tell you what is: unsolved problems in computer science and Lernaea might solve several.
In 2019 the belt of Hippolyta doesn’t make a lot of sense as a labor. What does: persuading influencers to take on a new version of the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.
Cattle rustling from Geryon? What is this, the Greek Wild West? No. So let’s go with harnessing the power of Lernaea to devise truly secure evoting devices.
Foodie or no, the apples of the Hesperides aren’t that exciting, here’s a miracleberry. No, in 2019 it’s gotta be using Lernaea to devise algorithms that readily distinguish between bots and propaganda farms vs actual news.
Cerberus? This isn’t a network security thing. I’ll give you a network security thing: Talos, the first science fiction-style fully autonomous, bipedal robot with true artificial intelligence, drawing upon several prior labors including Lernaea and the solution to the bipedal walking robot.

"It was the most affecting sight I have ever seen!" said Squealer, lifting his trotter and wiping away a tear. "I was at his bedside at the very last. And at the end, almost too weak to speak, he whispered in my ear that his sole sorrow was to have passed on before the windmill was finished. "Forward, comrades!" he whispered.

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;

Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!
