Answer:
I was born in Indiana. I know what your thinking, where the hell is Indiana? Well in the place i live in, it's pretty small and quiet town. I lived here all my life. My name is Jamie, and I'm 15 years old. This town is haunted. Not by what your thinking of. No scary ghost lady looking for revenge, or a banshee, or a demon that steals children. There is this man that passed away a long time ago. I guess he was bullied when he was little for being deformed or something. Everyone has their own story so it changes a whole lot. But I think I know the real story. Kids were real a holes back then, not like their better now, but they would always abuse this poor kid. I remember I heard someone mentioned that he got a pet rat one day and one of the kids threw it on the road and they all saw a huge truck pass by and kill it. The poor kid grew up mean I guess. Then killed himself when he was in his twenties. Now every once in a while their would be a rat infestion all over town. Everyone blames it on the story. It never seemed to happen at our house though. Never. It would happen at my neighbor's, my aunt's, my crush's house down the street. Never mine. Until now. My mom and dad went to go on a trip for their 10th anneversery. (sorry don't know how to spell that) and I got to stay in and lay around. Or so they thought. I invited my friend Kelly. My mom was so cautuos when she left. Because it's around this time for the infestation.I didn't worry. Why would I? When kelly came over, there was a knock before she arrived. I opened the door and saw no one. Ten minutes later another knock, she was there. Bright, pretty Kelly. I asked her about it but she said that she just arrived. I brushed it off. We laid around, played with some makeup. Then she wanted to bake some cookies. She had marshmellows and wanted to add them. But all of our supplies were downstairs. In the basement. I should of stayed out of there. We both went down because I was scared. I hate the dark. we grabbed the stuff, the baking powder, the cake stand, the spatulas. Thats when the door shut. I screamed at the sound and she bursted out laughing. She called me an idiot. I love it when she laughs. She climbs up the stairs and opens the door. Then she looks behind her shoulder at me, telling me its fine. We plopped the stuff on the counter and started baking. It was around ten when it happened. In our town we have this stupid siren that gives me a heart attack every single time. It's suppose to signal the rats infestation. It's always the same day, the same hour, the same minute each time its starts. 10:43 pm on a saturday in the months of June, August, and October. We shrugged it off, cause we both knew we were good. We should of been careful. We heard yells outside, those were the neighbors. We ignored it. Ten minutes later it was quiet again. Everyone should of left by now. They would either leave town or go to the shelters. So know one was on our street. No one to hear our screams. Thats when we heard scratches. On the wood, around the table, in the kitchen. They were everywhere but we couldn't find the trace of the sound. Until we saw them. The most ugliest creatures on planet earth. Their small tiny faces had teeth that shaped into something that looked like a sneer. It had begun....

Write a one-paragraph summary of Shirley Jackson’s short story “Charles.” Be sure to describe, in order, the most important parts of the story, its main characters, and its central conflict and resolution. Remember that a summary should not include minor details or plot points.
Answer:
Shirley Jackson's "Charles" is a short story about a kindergartner named Laurie who tells his parents about the daily antics of his classmate, Charles. Every day, Laurie describes instances where Charles hurts other students and is generally a bad influence. Laurie's parents are aghast at the described behavior and become fascinated by what kind of parents must have raised Charles, believing themselves superior. While attending a PTA meeting, Laurie's mother learns that there is no one in Laurie's class named Charles.
I don't think this answer is any better but here it is.
1. The player dashed across the field
a. subordinate clause
b. independent clause
Answer:
Explanation:
An independent clause is basically a complete sentence; it can stand on its own and make sense. An independent clause consists of a subject (e.g. “the dog”) and a verb (e.g. “barked”) creating a complete thought.
The dog barked.
A dependent clause cannot stand alone even if it contains a subject and a verb. Dependent clauses do not express complete thoughts so they are considered incomplete sentences or fragments. You can often identify a dependent clause by a “dependent marker word”1— a word or phrase which implies there is more to the sentence (e.g. “when”).
When the dog barked.
The example of an independent clause above, “The dog barked,” is a simple sentence. Simple sentences can also be longer than this; as long as a sentence consists of only an independent clause, it is a simple sentence. Simple sentences can also contain a compound subject or a compound verb. Because these sentences still contain only one independent clause (as opposed to two or more independent clauses and/or an independent clause and a dependent clause), they are still considered simple sentences.
The dog barked.
The quick, red fox jumped over the lazy, brown dog.
The dog and the fox jumped over the cat.
The fox jumped over the dog and dashed across the field.
A compound sentence consists of two or more independent clauses (or simple sentences) combined into one sentence.

Which of the following would best support an informational report on current winter weather in the Midwest?
A. a bar chart displaying anticipated weekly snowfall amounts
B. a table listing the top ten years with blizzard conditions
C. a picture of meteorologists from Missouri
D. a map of the Midwest states
Answer:
Explanation:
A. is the right answer. In the winter, people will likely be interested in the information about how much snow should they accept. This is why a bar chart on which they can see anticipated snowfalls in each state or region would be preferred. It would add up quality information to the weather report.
B. is not the right answer. History of the weather conditions won’t inform people of the current conditions.
C. is not the right answer. Photo of people who research weather conditions doesn’t add up anything to the information about current weather.
D. is not the right answer. The map on its own would not add up to the quality of the weather report.

The art of letter writing seems to have declined sharply in recent years. Perhaps the rising cost of stationery and postage is a factor. Most people today are so busy with their jobs, their families and their hobbies that they do not feel they have time to write letters. To a certain extent, television and personal computers have replaced communicating with friends as a form of entertainment. The advent of the telephone and the use of e-mail, however are probably the most significant factor in the decrease of letter writing, because they give instant access to friends and loved ones. locate the topic sentence

How would the author of “Playground” respond to the author of “I’m Not Thirteen Yet”? Use evidence from both texts in your explanation.
<< Read Less
Answer:
The Author of “Playground” would most likely respond by saying that both of the stories are similar, by which they both have characters that bring the story to a theme. Both stories bring together that their themes may be that the main characters feel drawn to something, This is because the main character in “I’m not 13 yet” wants to be a part in a School of 12 and 13 year olds. The main character feels as if they don’t belong, because they’re being excluded from the 13 year olds’ clubs. The main character in “Playground” however, has a flashback from their anguished childhood because his son and him pass by a Playground that is very noisy.
