PASSAGE;

Flying boats have a fuselage, or body, that looks and acts like a ship’s hull. This hull enables them to float on water very easily. Two small floats underneath its wings keep the flying boat stable in rough water. These seaplanes are usually larger and more stable on water than floatplanes are. A floatplane is a seaplane that has two long floats, called pontoons, under the fuselage. This is the only part of the plane that touches the water. Unlike flying boats, floatplanes often come in a wide variety of sizes. An amphibious vehicle can be either a flying boat or a floatplane with wheels. This allows the aircraft to land on both land and water

QUESTION;

Which choice BEST summarizes the author's comparison of flying boats to floatplanes?

A) Floatplanes are larger than flying boats and have floats under their wings for stability.
B) Flying boats are floatplanes that have two long floats, called pontoons, under the fuselage.
C) Flying boats are larger than floatplanes, and unlike floatplanes, the entire fuselage can float.
D) Flying boats come in a variety of sizes, are more stable on water and have wheels to drive on land.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Flying boats are larger than floatplanes, and unlike floatplanes, the entire fuselage can float.

Explanation:

Using process of elimination we know it cannot be D. That leaves us with choices A, B, and C.

Now we look at question B, it states that flying boats are floatplanes, which is not true. So we can eliminate choices B and D now.

Now we have A and C. We must choose the choice that BEST summarizes the author’s comparison of flying boats to floatplanes. A, HOWEVER states that floatplanes are larger than flying boats, which according to the passage (These seaplanes [flying boats] are usually larger and more stable on water than floatplanes are.) So now we can eliminate choice A, which leaves us with the most logical answer due to deductive reasoning, C. So therefore the answer must be C. Hope this helps.

Which image best represents an animal exhibiting kinetic energy?

Answers

I need to see the images

The  image best represents an animal exhibiting kinetic energy is image 4 that is of Cheetah. Thus the correct option is D.

What is kinetic energy?

An object's kinetic energy is the strength it draws from movement. A force needs to be applied if we want to speed an object. It clarifies the terminology that states that anything damaged by a moving object will be affected.

With more food available, the cheetahs would be able to sustain themselves better, which would promote breeding and better health. They would probably be able to do more as a result of this.

Force applied to an object while it is moving is considered to be doing work. A moving object's mass and velocity are the two main determinants of how much kinetic energy it has which helps in determining motion.

Therefore, option D is appropriate.

bright flow, I was refresh'd,

Answers

Answer:

A : "The poet is expressing ideas through a loose structure with repetition."

Explanation:

In the excerpt from "Crossing Brooklyn Ferry", you can see the phase, "Just as" repeated through her poem before she further elaborates into her stanzas. Free verses most of the time, or at all, do not rhyme; although that does not mean that free verses are free of structure.

Therefore, using the repeated phrase makes the free verse poem have a loose structure.

How does Brian’s experience at the raspberry patch show the battle between his animal side and his human side?

Answers

Awakened in the middle of the night from a dream about his mother, Brian becomes violently ill from the many berries he has eaten the previous day. He has a flashback in which the image of his mother kissing the man with the short blond hair recurs to him with horrible clarity. Falling back asleep, Brian awakes in the morning, walks down to the lake, and he sees his reflection in the water. Finding his injuries and worn face repulsive, he gives in to his tears and cries in self-pity. His stomach was aching with hunger, and he ate more of the bitter red berries, this time making certain to avoid eating too many. In search of other food he comes upon a raspberry patch, where he spots a bear and stiffens with fear, but soon realizes that the bear does not intend to harm him. Picking many raspberries, he eats some and saves many more for later. With the bear in mind, he keeps his hatchet close by his side and falls asleep.

Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. But the journey was not yet over. Before they could be admitted to the United States, immigrants had to pass through Ellis Island, which became the nation's chief immigrant processing center in 1892.

I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother. She always told me that "people who believe that science is the answer to everything are missing out on everything else." With her words in mind, I searched some more. There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed.
