what is your standpoint on todays standards for education. answer in 2-3 sentences.
Answers
Answer:
Bad
Explanation:
I feel that today's education system is what that built a long time ago and needs a massive overhaul. Sitting in desks all learning information and translating it to paper is basically teaching people how to just listen and be a robot, we need a system that makes be their own creators and thinkers.
Answer: Horrible.
Explanation: Today's education does not appeal to the special intrests, needs, or habits of students. School is often seen as boring or frustraiting to students because of how they are taught. All students learn differently, and making them all learn a certain way doesn't help them academically.
And The Truth Shall Make You Free: A Speech On The Principles Of Social Freedom
By Victoria C. Woodhull
Our government is based upon this proposition: All men and women are born free and equal and entitled to certain inalienable rights, among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. What we ask is simply that the government follow the spirit of this proposition. Nothing more, nothing less. If that proposition means anything, it means just what it says, without limitation. It means that every person is of equal right as an individual. Every person is free as an individual, and he or she is entitled to pursue happiness however he or she chooses. Now this is absolutely true of all men and all women. But just here some people stop and tell us that everybody must not pursue happiness in his or her own way. They say that to do so absolutely would be to have no protection against the action of an individual. These well-meaning people only see half of what is involved in the proposition. They look at a single individual and lose sight of all others. They do not think about how every other individual beside the one in question is equally due the same freedom. They do not consider how each is free within the area of his or her individual sphere. They do not recognize the fact that the moment one person gets out of his sphere and into the sphere of another, that other must protect him or herself against such an invasion of rights. To all such persons we assert: it is freedom and not despotism which we advocate, and we will demand that individuals be restricted to their freedom if it violates that of others.
If life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are inalienable rights in the individual, and government is based upon that inalienability, then it must follow that the functions of that government are to guard and protect the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, to the end that every person may have the most perfect exercise of them. And the most perfect exercise of such rights is only attained when every individual is not only fully protected in his rights, but also strictly restrained to the exercise of them within his own sphere, and prevented from proceeding beyond its limits, so as to encroach upon the sphere of another.
From these generalizations, certain specifications can be deduced, by which, all questions of rights must be determined:
1. Every living person has certain rights of which no law can rightfully deprive him.
2. Groups of persons form communities, who form governments to secure regularity and order.
3. Order and harmony can alone be secured in a community where every individual is fully protected in the exercise of all individual rights.
4. Any government which enacts laws to deprive individuals of the free exercise of their right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is despotic. Therefore, such laws are not binding upon the people who protest against them, whether they be a majority or a minority.
5. When every individual is secure in the exercise of all his rights, then everyone is also secure from the interference of all other parties.
question:
Based on the passage, what is the author's attitude toward government?
A.
She thinks it is important as long as it stays within its sphere.
B.
She thinks it is a good thing as long as it protects individual rights.
C.
She thinks it is unimportant because individuals can govern themselves.
D.
She thinks it is a bad thing because it cannot protect individual rights.
Answers
Answer:
B. She thinks it is a good thing as long as it protects individual rights.
Explanation:
The author never spoke badly about the government. She seems fairly civil with it. The author speaks a lot about rights and everyone being equal. She thinks individual rights are very important.

D.The height of an oak tree is its most important feature.
First Passage: The Northern Red Oak
The northern red oak is a grand-looking tree. It can grow as high as 75 feet tall. The fall season brings shorter days and cooler temperatures. Fall also brings changes to the leaves of the northern red oak. Leaves turn from green to shades of yellow, orange, and red, which is an amazing sight. It makes the northern red oak an eye-catching stand out among other trees in the oak family.
In summer, the gray rough branches of the northern red oak grow long and wide. This is the season when branches can become overly long and heavy. The weight of the branches' leaves adds even more pounds. If the growth of the tree is not managed, the entire appearance of the tree can be changed. Early trimming helps groom the tree and keeps it from looking like a rounded triangle by summer's end.
Both the size and the shape of the northern red oak's leaves are especially interesting. It is easy to find leaves that are larger than a man's hand. They often have 8 or more pointed fingers. That makes northern red oak leaves look like large, flattened evergreen trees.
Residents in the Midwest especially enjoy the beauty of their northern red oaks in October. A common sight is to see people walking or relaxing under them. They gaze up, watching the colored leaves dance in the cool fall breeze, knowing that winter will soon come to take the leaves away.
Second Passage: The Hardy Live Oak
The live oak tree is one of the toughest trees found in the United States. It is not a tall tree. It grows only 30 to 40 feet high. But its branches are broad and strong. The branches make up for the tree's rather short height. How? The branches stretch out from the trunk like thick arms on a giant. The leaves on the branches are simple. They are oval in shape. They glisten in the sun. Most importantly, live oak leaves are always there. Live oaks stay green all year round.
The live oak is also a fast growing tree. It is often planted in the lawns of new houses. This lets people living in the house have shade in just a few years. However, the owner of the tree needs to keep the lower branches trimmed. If the lower branches are not trimmed, over time the lower tree limbs will grow downward toward the ground. These branches will seem to almost slither like a snake. In time, they will be only inches above the ground. They will also spread out over the lawn for up to 25 feet from the trunk of the tree.
The live oak tree is popular for a very important reason. It can live in very hot weather. Strong sunlight does not kill it. People in the southern United States see so many live oaks that they no longer really notice them. Live oak trees just blend into the landscape. Yet, live oaks contribute to the landscape in many ways. They provide shade in the summer heat. They also provide food for many animals. Each live oak tree can produce thousands of acorns. Squirrels are just one type of animal that scurries to feast on the little brown nuts. Live oaks are certainly a treasure in hot places with harsh sunny weather.

First Steps
THE LANDING
As the lander hit, Maria drew a jagged breath, and her chest muscles clenched tight with anxiety. Captain Curran, the group leader, turned around and smiled at Maria and her five friends.
“All right,” he said with forced joviality. “Who wants to be the first of the generations born in space to set foot on a real planet?”
Maria waited for someone else to speak or raise their hand. Next to her, Allen just stared at the floor of the lander muttering, “Not me, not me.”
She glanced at Lily, who Maria had always known to be fearless, but Lily bit her lip and turned away. Javier looked positively gray, and the twins buried their faces in their hands. Someone would have to be first. Maria closed her eyes and took a few meditative breaths, waiting for someone else to volunteer, but the lander was silent.
FINDING COURAGE
The radio crackled to life. “Lander one, this is Mothership, do you copy?”
“Yes,” Captain Curran answered. “We’ve landed safely and are waiting to exit the lander, but there’s just a little…disagreement…over which pioneer wants to be the first to set foot on our new home.”
“Tell them there’s plenty for everyone to see, and they’re going to love it out there,” the voice on the radio responded. “I wish it were me instead of you; I miss the feel of real air on my face.”
Captain Curran flipped off the microphone. “You six have lived your entire lives in space, and it’s a great privilege to be the first of your generation to see a new planet. The others are watching; if you’re afraid, they’ll be afraid. Can’t any of you find the courage to set an example?”
Maria shifted uncomfortably in her seat and thought of her parents; they had traveled across the galaxy to find their family a new home, with clean air and good soil, and she knew this planet was for them. “I’ll do it, Captain,” she mumbled as she slipped out of her harness and rose out of her seat. Maria couldn’t shake the feeling of trepidation as she stood and watched the doors of the lander slide open.
A NEW WORLD
A burst of air hit Maria in the face. She scrunched up her nose as an unfamiliar assortment of odors hit her nostrils. Some smelled sweet, some disgusting, and some were just strange. There were never strange smells on the ship; everything was always the same there. What was it going to be like to live where things changed? The rest of the children gathered around the opening as she climbed down the ladder, and Maria tried to smile as she met their worried eyes. Then, suddenly, something crunched underneath her boots; she was standing on the surface of the planet, and it felt nothing like the smooth metallic halls that she’d known all her life.
Without letting go of the ladder, she turned around to look at the world around the lander. The soil was full of shapes and textures; there were some small, grainy pieces, then larger clumps that she could break with the toe of her boot. One piece was hard and smooth, and she let go of the ladder to pick it up. “Captain,” she called, “I think I’ve found a rock!”
The air was moving, and long, thin, green things bowed and danced. “Grasses,” Maria whispered to herself, remembering the videos in her science lessons. She let go of the ladder and took soft, slow steps and realized her arms and legs felt like they were full of lead. “Natural gravity,” she whispered to herself. She started to walk a little more quickly, getting used to the new sensation. She was doing what others had previously thought impossible—taking steps on a new world.
A creature with gossamer wings landed on her nose, and she crossed her eyes trying to get a good look at it. Something small and furry scurried across her feet as she spun in a slow circle. Inspired, she ran as fast as she could across the foreign soil; she’d never seen somewhere so big, and it was thrilling. Suddenly, a deep, low sound echoed around her.
“That’s the call of a hornbeast,” Captain Curran shouted from the bottom of the ladder. Maria glanced back and saw that he was helping her friends take tentative first steps in the new world. “Walk to your left a little, and there should be a stream—flowing water on the ground; they often go there to drink, the explorers say.”
She started to run in that direction and then paused. “Hurry up!” she yelled, unable to contain her enthusiasm. “Our new home is extraordinary!”
In the story “First Steps,” how does Maria's act of leaving the spaceship to explore the new planet affect the story?
It overwhelms her and she returns to the ship for safety.
She gains the respect of Captain Curran and the other children.
She encounters dangerous animals for the first time.
It gives her friends the confidence to join her.

The essay should answer this question: Explain why the Japanese were able to advance so easily in 1941 and early 1942
Answers
Answer:
In the 1850s, Chinese workers migrated to the United States, first to work in the gold mines, but also to take agricultural jobs, and factory work, especially in the garment industry. Chinese immigrants were particularly instrumental in building railroads in the American west, and as Chinese laborers grew successful in the United States, a number of them became entrepreneurs in their own right. As the numbers of Chinese laborers increased, so did the strength of anti-Chinese sentiment among other workers in the American economy. This finally resulted in legislation that aimed to limit future immigration of Chinese workers to the United States, and threatened to sour diplomatic relations between the United States and China.

The Japanese were able to advance so easily in 1941 and early 1942 because Japan made significant advances in its military campaigns across Asia and the Pacific, and one of the main reasons for this success was the country's advanced military technology and tactics.
What is the military campaign in Japan?One of the most significant advances in Japanese military technology was its use of naval aviation. Japan had developed a powerful carrier fleet that could strike deep into enemy territory and provide air support for ground forces. This allowed the Japanese to quickly gain control of strategic locations and expand their sphere of influence.
Another factor that contributed to Japan's early success was its military strategy. Japan had a highly trained and disciplined military that was focused on offensive operations. The country's military leaders had developed a strategy that relied on rapid and decisive action to seize key objectives and secure them with overwhelming force.
Hence, Japan made significant advances in its military campaigns across Asia and the Pacific, and one of the main reasons for this success was the country's advanced military technology and tactics.

Sherlock Holmes listened to the tale and agreed to visit the crime scene. The safe was open and empty, but it was not damaged. There was no visible entry into the room where the safe was kept: the windows were sealed, and the door was not damaged. Mrs. Blakely led Sherlock Holmes farther into the house and stopped in the middle of a hallway of old portraits. There were no windows, and the only door was at the other end of the hallway.
"This spot is where I found the black mask," Mrs. Blakely explained.
Sherlock Holmes inspected the hallway with a wrinkled brow. He walked up and down the hallway. He put his hand on the smooth floor. Then, Sherlock's brow smoothed and a glint entered his eyes. Turning to the wall, he pressed the expensive portrait into the wall.
"What are you doing to my painting?" Mrs. Blakely gasped.

What are Nouns?
Web Definition: "a word (other than a pronoun) used to identify any of a class of people, places, or things ( common noun ), or to name a particular one of these ( proper noun )."
Nouns are singular, meaning they are only 1 thing, you know them as a naming word. It names a person, an animal, a place, or a thing!
Examples: Teacher, Dog, Restaurant, and baseball!
These are all nouns or singular words!
What are Plural Words?
Web Definition: "(of a word or form) denoting more than one, or (in languages with dual numbers) more than two."
Plural words are the opposite of nouns, they are not singular! Plural words are more than 1 thing.
Examples: Teacher's, Dog's, Restaurant's, Baseball's
