Antigone and Ismene heard with horror what Creon had decided. To Ismene, shocking as it was, overwhelming her with anguish for the pitiful dead body and the lonely, homeless soul, it seemed, nevertheless, that nothing could be done except to acquiesce [to accept without protest]. She and Antigone were utterly alone. All Thebes was exulting that the man who had brought war upon them should be thus terribly punished. "We are women," she told her sister. "We must obey. We have no strength to defy the State." "Choose your own part," Antigone said. "I go to bury the brother I love."

"Is it not better to be poor and free than to have great wealth and be slaves?" she [Boadicea] asked. "And the Romans take not only our freedom but our wealth. They want to make us both slaves and beggars. Let us rise. O brothers and sisters, let us rise, and drive these robbers out of our land! Let us kill them every one! Let us teach them that they are no better than hares and foxes, and no match for greyhounds! We will fight, and if we cannot conquer, then let us die—yes, every one of us—die rather than submit."
–"The Story of a Warrior Queen"
How do the archetypes in these passages support the universal theme that one's values are worth risking one's life for?

Both Antigone and Boadicea are heroes who go to battle against their enemies.
Both Antigone and Boadicea are heroines who choose their values over their lives, knowing they may die in the process.
Both Antigone and Boadicea are villains who transgress the law in order to fight for their values.

do you agree that winning or losing a competitive sport teaches us about life
Answers
Answer: Yes.
Explanation:
This is all my personal opinion.
Winning shows reward when putting effort. With all the trials and tribulences of a competitive sport, winning is the cherry on top. Like life, everyone goes through challenges, and push through it to have their ups. And then downs. Losing is inevitable. In a competitive sport, you're bound to lose a match. Losing teaches us humility, knowing when you've been beat, and always coming back up to go for a win again.

Explanation:
complete sentence that expresses your position.
Narrows the topic down to a specific focus of an investigation.
Establishes a direction for the entire paper.
Points forward to the conclusion.
Always stated in your introduction. (Usually at the end of the first paragraph).
Always take a stand and justify further discussion.
A thesis statement is not a statement of fact.
Your readers—especially your instructors—want to read writing that engages them. Consequently, you must write thesis statements that are arguable, not factual. Statements of fact seem easy to write about because, well, they are easy to prove. After all, they’re facts. The problem is that you cannot write engaging papers around statements of fact. Such theses prevent you from demonstrating critical thinking and analytical skills, which you want to show your instructor. If you were to write a paper around the next two statements, your writing would probably be quite dull because you would be restating facts that the general public already knows.
Thesis Statements always take a stand and justify further discussion.
In order to make your writing interesting, you should develop a thesis statement that is arguable. Sometimes you will be writing to persuade others to see things your way and other times you will simply be giving your strong opinion and laying out your case for it.
Take a look at the following examples:
Statement of fact:
Small cars get better fuel mileage than 4x4 pickup trucks.
Arguable thesis statement:
The government should ban 4x4 pickup trucks except for work-related use.
Statement of fact:
Foul language is common in movies.
Arguable thesis statement:
The amount of foul language in movies is disproportionate to the amount of foul language in real life.
Statement of fact:
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease.
Arguable thesis statement/opening paragraph:
Researchers think the incidence of celiac disease is increasing in the USA not only because of an increase in the ability and awareness to diagnose it, but also because of changes in the agricultural system. In particular, they are looking at the increased use of pesticides, insecticides, and genetically modified wheat as culprits. Some of these theories are more likely to be valid than others.

Answers
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
A software can be defined as a set of executable instructions (codes) or collection of data that is used typically to instruct a computer how to perform a specific task and to solve a particular problem.
Basically, softwares are categorized into two (2) main categories based on their shareability and availability, these are;
I. Shareware.
II. Open-source software.
III. Closed-source (subscription-based) software.
IV. Freeware.
A freeware software refers to a type of software application (program) that can be downloaded over the internet and used at no extra cost i.e without an end user having to pay an amount of money as fees.
This ultimately implies that, a freeware software isn't available for low cost because they're generally made by software developers to be completely free to all end users.

Read the paragraph below and answer the question that follows.
1My name is Jonathan Cross. 2I am a member of the basketball team at Carter High School. 3Because of budget cuts, our school is unable to pay costs for new uniforms for our team. 4As a result, the team is seeking other sponsors to fund our new uniforms. 5I am writing to request that you consider sponsoring our team. 6As a sponsor, your company name would be featured on our uniforms.
Which of the following topics is introduced by the paragraph?
budget cuts and their negative effects on high school athletics
the team's winning record
the basketball team's need of new uniforms and their desire for sponsorship
all of the above
none of the above
Answers
Answer: The basketball team's need of new uniforms and their desire for sponsorship
Explanation:
This is the correct answer because the entire paragraph is about how Jonathan Cross and his basketball team need new uniforms but the school can't afford them. In the 4th sentence, he states, "The team is seeking other sponsors to fund our new uniforms." This sentence not only proves that they are seeking sponsors, but are looking for someone to fund their uniforms.
