Answer:
Charles Baskerville died in a “sudden and tragic death,” and it was his death that led to Sherlock Holmes being hired. Apparently, the poor man had a bad heart and was frightened by a dog that he thought was the Hound of Hell—the Hound of the Baskervilles. You see, his evil neighbor Mr. Stapleton moved in and tried to get his money, feeling he was the one who was truly worthy of the estate. He decided to use the story of the hound to scare Henry, killing him and then getting the land and manor.

How does the "Life in the wild" contribute to the author's argument in "Excerpt from Marine Mammals in Captivity"?
Incomplete question. I assumed you are referring to the article "Excerpt from Marine Mammals in Captivity" by The Humane Society of the United States.
Explanation:
In that section, the author provides real-life examples that back his claims about why animals should be taken from their natural wild habitat.
For example, the author stated, "The very nature of these animals makes them uniquely unsuited to confinement." He further continued by stating how Whales and Dolphins naturally love to travel long distances every day, "they are always aware, and always moving."
The author made a lasting point by adding, "Understanding this, it is difficult to imagine the tragedy of life in no more than a tiny swimming pool." With such expression the author no doubt causes the reader to think about the sudden changes experienced by these living organisms.

Write a ' I have a dream one day' speech about any topic and it has to be 4/5 paragraphs
Answer: I Have A Dream Speech by Martin Luther King Jr. Paraphrased
Five years ago, the good American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Declaration of Emancipation. This head of the judiciary came as a great ray of redemption to the millions of Black slaves who had been sealed in the fires of wiping oppression. It was a glorious daybreak to end the long night of their imprisonment.
But 100 yrs later, the Slave is still not free. One hundred years old, the existence of the Negro is still unfortunately segregation and the chains of seclusion and the chains of racism. One century later, the Black lives on a secluded island of hardship in the middle of a vast ocean of material prosperity. A hundred yrs later...
The Colored is now languishing in the shadows of Society today and finding himself in exile in his own country. And then we came here today to sensationalize a shameful state of affairs. In a way, we've traveled to the capital of our country to pay a check.
Because when founders of our country penned the glorious words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they signed a promise note upon whom all American was to become heir. This note was a pledge that all men-yes, men of color as well as white men-would be granted the inalienable rights to life, freedom and the pursuit of happiness.
It is now clear that United states has defaulted on this promising note as far as its people are concerned. Rather than upholding this sacred responsibility, America has given the Colored people a poor check, a check that has come back marked a lack of money.

Using at least three quotes from Act IV of Romeo and Juliet as evidence, describe the internal conflict felt by Juliet before she takes the Friar's vial of dubious poison. Ex. "A quote from Act IV of Romeo and Juliet" - This quote shows the internal conflict of Juliet before she takes the poison because.... "A quote from Act IV of Romeo and Juliet" - This quote shows the internal conflict of Juliet before she takes the poison because.... "A quote from Act IV of Romeo and Juliet" - This quote shows the internal conflict of Juliet before she takes the poison because.... Then in 3-4 sentences explain what you would have done in Juliet's situation. Would you have followed the Friar's plan? Would you have simply run away?
Answer and Explanation:
"Juliet- Oh! Close the door soon! And after you have closed it, come and cry with me too. There is no hope, no medicine, no help." This quote shows Juliet's internal conflict because she is on the eve of her marriage to Paris, and she is already married to Romeo.
"Juliet - Oh! Tell me to throw myself off the battlements of that tower, but in marriage to the count do not speak; or invite me to walk on the roads of robbers, or to hide in nests of snakes; tie me up with bears roars; in a ram you shut me up at night, full of human bones, [...] "This quote shows Juliet's internal conflict, because it shows that she would rather suffer than marry Paris.
"Juliet - [...] What if, after being in the grave, I wake up, without Romeo arriving to save me? Oh horrible case! I will not be asphyxiated inside the grave, whose filthy mouth does not breathe healthy air, and, thus, suffocated dying without my Romeo coming? Or if I live, it will not be very plausible that that image of blackness and death, associated with the dread of the point itself - a sepulcher, a ram where there are hundreds of my ancestors; since a little bloody Tebaldo, decomposing in his white shroud [...] "This quote shows Juliet's internal conflict because she fears that Romeo will not vape it or be afraid to enter the tomb, leaving her suffocated dying , slowly.
In Juliet's place, I would not have followed through with the Friar's plan, nor would I have run away. Since this was a completely dead end situation, I would tell my family that I had already married Romeo, that the marriage was already finished and there was nothing more to be done.

Excerpt from Stuff Matters
By Mark Miodownik
In the absence of copper, gold, and meteoric iron, our ancestors’ tools during the Stone Age were made of flint, wood, and bone. Anyone who has ever tried to make anything with these kinds of tools knows how limiting they are: if you hit a piece of wood it either splinters, cracks, or snaps. The same is true of rock or bone. Metals are fundamentally different from these other materials because they can be hammered into shape: they flow, they are malleable. Not only that, they get stronger when you hit them; you can harden a blade just by hammering it. And you can reverse the process simply by putting metal in a fire and heating it up, which will cause it to get softer. The first people to discover these properties ten thousand years ago had found a material that was almost as hard as a rock but behaved like a plastic and was almost infinitely reusable. In other words, they had discovered the perfect material for tools, and in particular cutting tools like axes, chisels, and razors. This ability of metals to transform from a soft to a hard material must have seemed like magic to our ancient ancestors.

In 1961 Professor Richmond from Oxford University discovered a pit that had been dug by the Romans in AD 89. It contained 763,840 small two-inch nails, 85,128 medium nails, 25,088 large nails, and 1,344 extra-large sixteen-inch nails. The hoard was of iron and steel and not gold, which most people would have found bitterly disappointing. But not Professor Richmond. Why, he asked himself, would a Roman legion bury seven tons of iron and steel? The legion had been occupying the advance headquarters of Agricola in a place called Inchtuthil in Scotland. This was at the outer reaches of the Roman Empire, and their mission was to protect its border from what they saw as the savage tribes who threatened it: the Celts. The legion of five thousand men occupied the region for six years before retreating and, in the process, abandoning their fort. They made great efforts to leave behind nothing that could help their enemies. They smashed all food and drink containers and burned the fort to the ground. But they weren’t satisfied with this. In the ashes were the steel nails that had held the fort together, and they were far too valuable to be left to the tribes that had driven them out. Iron and steel were the materials that enabled the Romans to build aqueducts, ships, and swords; they allowed them to engineer an empire. Leaving the nails to their enemies would have been as useful as leaving a cache of weapons, so they buried them in a pit before marching south.
Based on the excerpt, the reader can infer that Professor Richmond viewed the discovery of the Roman pit as –
A) Fascinating
B)Disappointing
C) Wasteful
D) Intelligent
Answer:
A) Fascinating
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from Stuff Matters
by Mark Miodownik, the history of metals is discussed and how their discovery helped shape mankind and how he used tools. Professor Richmond discovered a pit dug by the Romans in AD 89 which contained buried nails meant to be kept out of reach of from the Celts.
Based on the excerpt, the reader can infer that Professor Richmond viewed the discovery of the Roman pit as fascinating because he thought it interesting that they valued the nails so much to keep them out of the reach of their enemies.
On pages 223 and 224, Carlotta mentions several historical events including the March on Washington, where Dr. King gave his “I Have a Dream” speech; the bombing of the 16th Street Church in Birmingham, Alabama; and the assassination of President Kennedy. What are Carlotta's reactions to these events? What might account for Carlotta's different reactions to them?
Answer:
Carlotta seems to be removed from the events. She describes her reaction to the March on Washington like this: “I had no burning desire to participate in a march that seemed to me then purely symbolic,” but then she felt how powerful it was when she saw the thousands of people on television. However, when Carlotta heard about the 16th Street Church bombing and President Kennedy’s assassination, she was horrified.
It seems like her reaction to the March on Washington reflected her experience—a march by itself didn’t seem to mean much after her time at Central High School where she faced so much discrimination. Upon hearing the news of the 16th Street Church bombing, however, she said, “I knew that the same fate so easily could have been mine.” She identified with the victims in that case. Similarly, President Kennedy’s assassination made her reflect on her experiences, saying “his life extinguished by the same kind of hatred that had been so rampant in Little Rock. I wondered how—and sometimes why—I survived.”

Civil Disobedience Part 1 Most people remember Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as reformers who practiced non-violent forms of protest and advocacy. Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a wave of change that was long overdue. But the practice of non-violent protest, or civil disobedience, started long before either Gandhi or King. It began with a quiet, shy poet who is best known for writing a lot about a pond. Henry David Thoreau lived from 1817 until 1862, mainly in the area of Concord, Massachusetts. The issue that would tear the country apart in the 1860s had already begun dividing the nation. Thoreau was only 14 when Nat Turner led the slave rebellion in Virginia and was later hanged. In his late 20s, Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public, echoing the voices of freedmen like Frederick Douglass and Lewis Hayden. Thoreau believed that a government that supported slavery was corrupt and immoral. He was also deeply suspicious of government. For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person. It was basically a tax on one's body. After not paying for years, he was at last arrested. He spent only one night in jail, however, as a relative paid the tax for him. He was reportedly furious that any tax was paid on his behalf. It was this experience that Thoreau wrote about in an essay called "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, he argued that being moral and just came before allegiance to government. He wrote “If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." He also felt that voting was not enough to ensure that the right thing be done. He wrote that "even voting for the right is doing nothing for it… A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance…" He felt that one had a moral responsibility to resist unjust laws. Which line from Part 1 best
The line that most exemplifies Henry David Thoreau's view about government is C. (Please see the attached for the sections omitted from the question.)
What is Henry David Thoreau's key point?David's opinion is that where the moral rights of a people or an individual is breached by the government, then the individual must respond in disobedience to such a government.
This is further premised on the idea that the government exists to protect and administer the natural system of equity that is inherent in every human. Hence the statement: being moral and just came before allegiance to the government.
