Which statement best evaluates the author's use of pacing to enhance the
narrative?
The finish line banner moved back and forth in the wind and Mattie's
pace picked up slightly when she saw the large running clock ticking
off the seconds. As she heard someone yelling her name, her eyes
looked through the crowd and found her mom, who was waving her
arms and jumping up and down. Mattie giggled and with the
realization that she would cross the finish line this time, she felt a tear
slip out. "I did it," she whispered to herself as she crossed the finish
line
A. The pacing is not effective, because the short sentences are too
upbeat to depict Mattie's difficulty with running
O B. The pacing is effective, because the short sentences are
appropriately frantic, showing how important it is to Mattie to
finish the race.
C. The pacing is effective, because the long sentences are
appropriately triumphant, emphasizing Mattie's joy at winning the
race
D. The pacing is not effective because the long sentences are too
relaxed to capture the excitement of finishing a rac&?

I need a Thesis statement for night! thesis is about religion.

Answers

Since a thesis statement should be unique to whatever you are writing to keep you on track, you really should work on coming up with one yourself.

I suggest making it about whatever you are writing it about, and include the definition of religion somewhere in it. Unfortunately asking for a thesis statement from someone else does not really work, and just saying "about religion" is not a great deal of information for someone to create one.

A good way to pick one is to ask a question about your topic, then answer that question. You can even do it twice if your topic not very narrow.

Discuss the role of education in a repressed society. compare the way the pigs in Animal
Farm and the slave owners in American history tried to withhold reading to maintain
power. How would the literacy of the powerless threaten the power of those in control?

Please help it’s due in like an hour

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

In a simple and direct way, we can affirm that education provides knowledge and knowledge is very powerful, as it allows people not to be deceived, to be able to think efficiently and allows them to understand their rights and roles within society. This causes people to reject false ideas that act negatively in their lives and have the necessary knowledge to combat all types of abuse and exploitation to which they are subjected. In other words, education provides power to impotent people, so they are able to combat oppressive systems and incompetent and aggressive leaders.

This was the reason why slaveholders did not allow slaves to have access to education. Frederick Douglass, said that when he was a slave, his master forbade his wife to teach him to read, as this would make him have ideas that would put him against white people and reject his state of slavery, in addition to teaching other blacks to rebel against whites. This shows how knowledge is liberating and only education can do that.

We can also see an example of this in "Animal Farm" where animals with less access to education, horses, were the most exploited and harmed and the lack of education made them completely dependent on highly abusive leaders, who had knowledge to do evil.

1 A blizzard struck the city of Phoenix, Arizona, on July 5, 2011. But it wasn’t a frozen, white, swirling kind of blizzard. This storm was gritty, dark, and smothering. It was known as a “black blizzard.” “Black blizzard” is an American nickname for a dense cloud of dry particles that blankets a large area. It is commonly called a dust storm. The Phoenix blizzard towered 5,000 feet into the air, stretched 100 miles across, and plowed a 150-mile path before it finally calmed down. During the storm, visibility was nearly zero. 2 It’s common to see a swipe of dust, dirt, or sand stirred up by a gust of wind. A black blizzard is the same experience multiplied many times over. Such storms are powered by high winds. Like water flowing in a river, fast air currents pick up and transport loose, dry soil. Lighter particles are swept up and carried for miles. Heavier particles are pushed forward by saltation. Saltation happens when blowing particles knock into stationary particles on the ground. The blowing particles set them in motion, too. Soon many particles bounce along by a series of skips and jumps. Saltated particles can work together to nudge pebbles and other objects. The nudging action is called creep. Saltation and creep come together to move massive amounts of material. In September 2009, a giant dust storm moved five million tons of red outback soil through Sydney, Australia! Watch Out . . . 3 Dust storms can severely affect whatever or whoever gets in their way. The grinding blast damages crops, livestock, buildings, and vehicles. Dust storms can have harmful effects on human health, too. They make breathing illnesses much worse. Dust storms stir up bacteria, molds, and fungi, which can cause “valley fever,” an infection that often follows dust storms in Phoenix. Virologists believe valley fever is caused by a soil fungus. . . .
