Julia is writing an essay comparing "Children of the Drug Wars" and Enrique's Journey. She writes this topic sentence.
hammer [7621]

Answer:

The responses are:

1. Judges should gain better insight into the adversities these children face, as they currently reject seven out of ten asylum applications from individuals undergoing deportation processes.

4. Enrique attempts to maintain his cleanliness by scouring for cardboard to use as bedding. He conserves some water from his bottle to wash his arms.

5. Two migrants are afraid to venture into town. They offer Enrique 20 pesos and request he buys food, promising to share it with him if he returns with it.

Explanation:

Both the editorial by Nazario and the biography depict the struggles of the immigrant children in a foreign land. They evoke feelings of empathy in readers for Enrique and other migrants from Central America.

The first point emphasizes the need for judges to acknowledge the hardships faced by children and approve their asylum claims for protection. The fourth point illustrates that both pieces convey the reality that Enrique sleeps on pieces of cardboard to avoid dirt and saves water for washing his arms. The fifth point highlights migrants who, out of fear, ask Enrique to buy food in exchange for 20 pesos.

Who would "go parading" In London, "and masquerading," The speaker feels these are formal activities. The activities in the city
Naddika [7460]

In William Wordsworth's poem "The Sun Has Long Been Set," the use of quotation marks around specific words suggests something artificial regarding these actions.

Response: The appropriate answer is: These activities seem contrived

Explanation:

The poem 'The sun has long been set' beautifully captures the essence of evening through images of stars, wind, the sky, and the half moon. Additionally, it emphasizes how the natural world offers more than the 'artificial life' found in urban settings. Nature offers a serene retreat from the stresses of life.

What does the speaker of the poem imply about being American?
ddd [7416]

Respuesta:

La oradora sugiere que al identificarse como americana, ha perdido algunas características (adjetivos) que han estado presentes en su familia, como el 'anhelo por otra vida' que mostraba una de sus abuelas y la 'amargura' que tenía su tía.

Explicación:

Dado que la autora creció siendo americana, no cargó con la 'carga' que tenían otros miembros de su familia, y, por ende, perdió esas características.

PART A: Which of the following best explains why Chavez includes the story of the Braceros in his speech introduction?
Leya [7781]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Cesar Chavez was a prominent labor leader and activist instrumental in advocating for better pay and working conditions for farmers.

On November 9, 1984, Chavez addressed the Commonwealth Club of California, San Francisco. He opened his speech by mentioning the Bracero incident, where 32 Bracero farm workers lost their lives.

He referenced the tragic accident of the Braceros that occurred 21 years prior, as a tribute to their legacy. Braceros were brought in from Mexico to work on California farms. The bus they used was repurposed from a flatbed truck, which led to the fatalities of these workers.

Consequently, the right answer is option D.
