HELP! Who is the BEST person to write a biography on? I need some ideas ASAP.
PLSSSSSS HELP MEEEEEE

Answers

In my opinion, it would be:

Isaac Newton

Here's why:

Sir Isaac Newton (Jan. 4, 1643–March 31, 1727) was a superstar of physics, math, and astronomy even in his own time. He occupied the chair of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge in England, the same role later filled, centuries later, by Stephen Hawking. Newton conceived of several laws of motion, influential mathematical principels which, to this day, scientists use to explain how the universe works. Therefore, he would be a great person to write a biography on.

I hope this answer helps you out! Have an amazing day and have fun writing your biography. Good luck :)

Who is President Reagan?

From 1981 through 1989, Ronald Wilson Reagan, an American politician, presided as the country's 40th president. After a career as a Hollywood actor and union leader, he joined the Republican Party in 1962 and went on to become California's 33rd governor from 1967 to 1975.

The "Reaganomics" economic policies of the administration were influenced by supply-side economics. Reagan's administration saw a huge rise in the national debt as a result of budget deficits brought on by tax cuts combined with higher war spending.

Reagan won the election with a resounding landslide because of the hostage situation in Iran and a deteriorating domestic economy characterized by high unemployment and inflation. The Reagan Era began with the 1980 presidential election, which also signaled a shift to the right in American politics.

In Anthem Chapter 1

Answers

An inconsistency in the language of the passage is the use of the pronoun "her" in the first clause.

We can arrive at this answer because:

The pronoun impedes the fluidity of the clause and impairs the coherence of the text.The use of the pronoun in this clause is incorrect and does not promote the sentence's meaning.The pronoun, in this clause, does not refer to anything and is displaced in the sentence.

In this case, the pronoun should be excluded from the sentence, or replaced by the word "here," which would promote greater coherence in the text.

How does the author of the text use foreshadowing to create suspense in “the tell-tale heart”? Support your answer with two pieces of textual evidence.

Answers

Answer:

Throughout the story, Poe is careful about how he portrays his words. The way he does portray them creates a sense of suspense that makes you feel as if you are observing the whole event, frame by frame.

In this story, Poe states “For a whole hour I did not move a muscle, and in the meantime, I did not hear him lie down” (63). In this example, his words are described in such vivid detail that you picture this scene perfectly. Another example includes when Poe uses such phrases as, “It was open-wide, wide open-and I grew furious as I gazed upon it” (63).

The use of repetition in the first-person point of view helps to stir some emotions of the unknown. It creates the suspense of not knowing what will happen next. By using the first-person point of view, Poe was able to show how the narrator feels.

An example of this is when the narrator uses the phrases at the beginning to question his existence. The narrator wanted to know if he was mad, or not.

Phrases such as “I heard all things in the heaven and in earth” (62), tells the reader that the narrator indeed is mad, yet the narrator thinks himself not. In the following statement, “If still you think me mad, you will think so no longer when I describe the wise precautions I took for the concealment of the body” (64).

The passages present arguments for and against voting rights for those convicted of a felony. Write a response analyzing the arguments in both passages and determining which argument is stronger. Use relevant and specific evidence from the passages to support your response. Take approximately 45 minutes to write your response. Be sure to plan, draft, and evaluate your writing.

Passage 1

Don't Disenfranchise Felons

As of 2010, an estimated 5.85 million U.S. citizens cannot vote because of a felony conviction. This is a horrific number, greater than the total population of Wisconsin. Twelve states deny voting rights to felons after prison, parole, and probation are over: Alabama, Arizona, Delaware, Florida, lowa, Kentucky, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, Tennessee, Virginia, and Wyoming. The laws in these states need to be reformed. No citizen should be denied voting rights after completing their prison sentence. It creates an unjust, permanent restriction. Once a citizen has completed a sentence, that person's rights should be reinstated. The U.S. justice system is far from perfect. While racial minorities make up approximately 30% of the U.S. population, they comprise 60% of the prison population. Disenfranchisement laws denying felons voting rights unjustly target minorities. As the Washington Poststated in the editorial "A Lifetime Sentence for Felonies"(July 29 ,20 ), "In Virginia, Kentucky and Florida, felon disenfranchisement affects a staggering one in five African Americans." A prison sentence is a term of rehabilitation determined by a court. At the end of this term, a felon has paid the debt that society dictated. Denying civil rights after this term is unfair and undemocratic. It is demoralizing to former felons, who can no longer fully participate in democracy. Felony disenfranchisement laws should be overturned.

Passage 2

Let States Decide about Felony Voting Rights

Felony voting rights are governed by state laws, and each state should be allowed to determine the best policy. Two states have no restrictions, and even felons in prison can vote. Twelve states have at least some restrictions after parole and probation. The majority of states fall somewhere in between. In each state, the voters and lawmakers have made a determination of appropriate voting rights. Opponents of voting rights restriction often state that almost 6 million American felons do not have the right to vote, but in truth, almost half of those people are still in prison. Most Americans agree that it is not unjust for felony prisoners to lose voting rights while in prison or on parole. State laws reflect this reasoned belief. States that maintain voting restrictions after parole are not unreasonable. In the February, 2013 National Review article "Eric Holder's Call for Felon Reenfranchisement." Roger Clegg, JD stated: "The right to vote can be restored, but it should be done carefully, on a case-by-case basis, once a person has shown that he or she has really turned over a new leaf." The completion of a sentence is not the same as rehabilitation. It should not necessarily mean an automatic lifting of reasonable restrictions. A felon has shown criminal judgment, and that is a rational reason for restricting voting rights.
