Explanation:

Read this excerpt from The Outsiders. Soda tries to understand, at least, which is more than Darry does. But then, Soda is different from anybody; he understands everything, almost. Like he's never hollering at me all the time the way Darry is, or treating me as if I was six instead of fourteen. I love Soda more than I've ever loved anyone, even Mom and Dad. Which statement best states the theme of this excerpt? A. People are alike inside. B. Hardship builds character. C. Kindness creates loyalty. D. Appearances can be deceptive.

Answers

Answer:

C. Kindness creates loyalty.

Explanation:

H. E. Hinton's "The Outsiders" is a young adult novel that revolves around the protagonist Ponyboy Curtis and his life with his two brothers. The story deals or delves into the themes of class in the society and the conflict that arises, their differences and how it affected them as children.

As given in the excerpt, the narrator's admission that he likes Soda more than his parents or his other brother Darry shows that he is loyal to whoever is kind to him. Soda never "holler(s) at [Ponyboy] all the time" or even "treating [him] as if [he] was six instead of fourteen". This behavior towards him becomes the judging factor for who he likes more and who he stays loyal to. Soda definitely seems to be kinder to him than Darry seems to be, so the narrator felt more loyal and near to him.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

What is one way that testing helps scientists determine which solution for a problem works best?

Answers

Answer: Testing allows scientists to rely on abductive reasoning rather than inductive and deductive reasoning.

Answer:

Testing can help them understand where they went wrong, and see if it works.

Explanation:

How can testing actually determine which solution for a problem works best? Well let me try and answer that for you! Instead of just diving in blind, you are diving in with the ability to see the problem after-ward, and how it can cause chaos. If the solution ends up correct in the end then the test went great. But if you like said, go in blindly and just make up an solution and add it together with the others it could cause death, third-degree burns, pain, or other horrible things.

 Though I might not be 100% accurate about this answer, or the explanation, I really do hope I helped you out though.

In what ways do we often have to seek freedom or change in our own family structures?

Answers

Human beings are unusual in the animal kingdom because of their capacity to self-reflect and to acquire self-knowledge. This means that humans often have the intention to look for their own dreams or ways of living that better fit with their interests and lifestyles.

One way in which humans look for this freedom and change is by choosing their partners. By choosing specific partners, human beings are able to create the family that they prefer and that they feel most comfortable with. Human beings also seek this change by choosing whether to have children or not, or whether to move out of their parents' home once they become self-sufficient.

Answer:

This seems like a creative writing prompt so I'll just explain it to you in order for you to add your own flare.

Explanation:

The Escape is the title of the prompt, based on that title you should answer the questions written in either the perspective of the Zebra in the image or someone who is observing it. Based on speculation and imagination you have to answer, how did this Zebra end up in the situation that the image is portraying and what will happen after.

I would say something like this when considering the Zebra's perspective.

"I was at the watering hole until an unknowing cheetah came to eat me. I had a family to protect so I distracted the cheetah to follow me and the next thing I found out, I was hanging here. etc"

Of course, you would have to write more sentences in more detail, and if you were to do it from a different perspective you would have to change the pronouns and information, but this is a good start to adding context to the image.

I feel that it is a choice because nobody is forcing you to take this substance. It could be out of curiosity but that is not an excuse.

Answer:

Substance abuse is a choice

Explanation:

Substance abuse is not an infectous disease that you can inherit from another person. It is a choice that people make on their own accord. Vise verse. You cannot tell a pathogen or some sort of virus that they aren't welcome into your body, they enter us as they please. Also, the substances themselves aren't abusive, rather the people who treat them with disrespect.
