Read this excerpt from “The Myth of Hercules.”


Hercules was the son of the great god Zeus and a human woman named Alcmene. The goddess Hera did not like Alcmene and vowed to destroy Hercules when he was born. Hera sent two snakes to kill the baby as he lay in his crib, but Hercules was strong and strangled the snakes with his tiny hands before they could bite him with their sharp fangs.


The excerpt gives clues that later in the story, Hercules will most likely

It is estimated that around four billion trees are cut down each year to make paper. Perhaps that number would have been acceptable 20 years ago, but, in this day and age, it's unacceptable. What makes today so different than 20 years ago? The digital revolution. With everything from medical files, to newspapers, and textbooks offered on digital platforms, why should we continue to destroy the natural environment for the sake of making paper? Governments should make laws limiting paper manufacturers in order to end a practice that is wasteful, destroys rainforests, and harms the environment.

Answers

Answer:

The White Man's Burden: The United States and the Philippine Islands" (1899), by Rudyard Kipling, is a poem about the Philippine–American War (1899–1902), which exhorts the United States to assume colonial control of the Filipino people and their country. Kipling's aim was to encourage the American government to take over the Philippines, one of the territorial prizes of the Spanish-American War, and rule it with the same energy, honor, and beneficence that, he believed, characterized British rule over the nonwhite populations of India and Africa.

Explanation:

Kipling believed the "White Man's burden" was the duty of white men to bring education and salvation to people around the world that he deemed uncivilized. Many people, including people of color and anti-imperialists, have called this concept racist.

"The White Man's Burden: The United States and the Philippine Islands" (1899), by Rudyard Kipling, is a poem about the Philippine–American War (1899–1902), which exhorts the United States to assume colonial control of the Filipino people and their country.[1] Originally written to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria (22 June 1897), the jingoistic poem was replaced with the sombre "Recessional" (1897), also a Kipling poem about empire.

What THEME is most clearly suggested by Natalie Babbitt through the Tucks’ experiences?
Tuck everlasting

Answers

Answer:

Love

Explanation:

The last important theme is that of love. Winnie came to love the Tucks and through her experiences with them, she came to understand some very important ideas about life. In turn, she came to appreciate and love her parents and her Grandmother even more, because she understood why they treated her as they.

(thats what I put)

The Tucks are simple-appearing people, but they conceal a great secret. The toad on the road that just won't get out of the way might have lived for seventy years or more. The woods near town might conceal a spring that can make you immortal.

The events of Tuck Everlasting do not happen on a grand scale - instead, this is a tale about a young girl who discovers a major mystery and fights to keep it secret. The novel is set in the countryside of the late 1800s, and all the characters are ordinary people. However, the fact that these incredible supernatural events happen to be hidden in such an ordinary little community suggest that magical things might be hidden in everyday people and places.

Original: “In today’s economy, a college education is a necessity. Yet the cost has more than doubled, making it extremely difficult for students to afford. Many are faced with years of paying off student loans, which stops them from meeting their life goals, like home or car ownership. Those purchases help the economy and create jobs.”

Which is the paraphrased version of the above text?

a
President Obama, in his speech on college affordability, discussed what he has done to make college more affordable because he claims that it is important to get a good education. Since college can be expensive, he claims that additional money has been made available for student aid, and student loan repayment has been made more lenient.
b
Given the competitive job market, President Obama points out that it is important to get a good education. However, he admits that the high cost of education can make this a challenge for many students. The knowledge that they will be paying off student loans for years to come causes many potential students concern. They are afraid that student loan debt may prevent them from being able to afford other items like cars or homes. If enough students are in debt that these types of purchases decrease, suggests Obama, the businesses that provide these products will need fewer workers and the job market will become even more difficult.

What is an excerpt?

An excerpt is a passage that has been cited verbatim from a book, novel, poetry, short story, essay, speech, or other literary work and is used to illustrate a point to the reader. The word excerpt first became in use in the 15th century and comes from a Latin word that means plucked out. The words quotation, quote, fragment, and extract are all synonyms for excerpt.

There are various reasons why authors use excerpts. Three categories can be made out of these. An extract can be used by a writer to support their feelings or ideas about a subject. Second, a writer can utilize an extract to draw the reader's attention to and help them recall what they want them to grasp.
