Molokai's seclusion is caused in part by its limited natural resources. Steep hillsides, an
arid climate, strong winds, and rough seas mean that only a small portion of the land is
viable for economic and agricultural development. But because of Molokai's close
proximity to more powerful islands, covetous outsiders spent centuries exploiting what
existed of its natural resources, hoping to squeeze a profit out of Molokal for
themselves. From Hawaiian chieftains to modern corporations, the land was used and
abused, leading to a vicious cycle of land-clearing, soil degradation, landslides, and
more. In short, those in power would wreak havoc on the land and depart, leaving the
Island in ruin. The small local population was left to pick up the pieces.
Why did the author include this passage?
A
To point out that in the past, the actions of Molokal's native residents in extracting the
island's natural resources caused environmental ruin on a massive scale
B
To suggest that Molokai is now ripe for economic development because valuable and
highly exploitable natural resources remain on the island
с
To draw emphasis to the fact that the island of Molokai is located in such a remote
location that the economic development of its resources is extremely difficult

4. Aniya is completing the table of contents and title page of her report.

Answers

Answer:

4. Aniya is completing the table of contents and title page of her report.

Explanation:

The final stage of planning is the implementation and completion of the project being established. In this case, at the end of the planning, the project is almost finished, needing only the details of completion as an index and title.

Thus, we can say that option 4 is correct, since the planning has already been established and Aniya already knows how the project took place, how it was corrected, which parts needed modification and on which page each topic is being presented.

What impact does the word choice in stanza 3 have on the poems meaning (lines 9-12)?


*answer needs to be at least 4-6 sentences long please*

Answers

Answer:

The words, in stanza three, have a major impact on the poem.  The words show how incredible change can make you feel different, and how the weather affected how the person felt. Line 9 says, "Like me you’ll long for home, where birds’ glad song..." This illustrates an image into the readers mind on how the author must've felt when the weather constantly was changing, especially when it became winter.  Line 10 states, "And tender thoughts and feelings fine and strong..." This explains how the author was feeling when it became winter and that it was cold, making him feel tender.

When people used to say 'art', most of us thought of a posh, rich person standing in a gallery
enjoying a painting hanging on a wall, but thankfully in today's society this image is fast
disappearing, Art can be created from anything, it can be created into different forms that
both intrigue and stimulate our senses.
Graffiti is urban street art which people associate with gangs and their territories
vandalism and violence. It gives the impression that the area is dangerous, but this is because
people don't understand what graffiti represents, and how inspiring it can be
One style of grafhiti is called 'bombing'. This is when someone writes on a wall in a style
that is their own, whether it be in fancy lettering, colours, or both. It is a way for them to
express themselves, what they think art is and what art means to them. Some people have
misguided attitudes towards this form of art, so it is complained about by communities
and made illegal. Youths then feel that the older generation is dictating what art should be
instead of letting them have the freedom to use public spaces to convey their own views and
create clever and pleasing images.

Emma was excited because she would help Granny decorate the Easter eggs. (Convert into a compound sentence using for.)

Answers

Answer:

Emma was excited, for she would help Granny decorate the Easter eggs.

Explanation:

A compound sentence is one that joins two independent clauses with the help of a coordinating conjunction. An independent clause can stand alone. In the sentence above, the coordinating conjunction for, joins the two independent clauses; Emma was excited, and She would help Granny decorate the Easter eggs.

'For,' in that sentence tells us the reason why Emma was excited and that is the fact that she would help Granny with the decorations.
