Answer:
Explanation:Advertisements are generally created to persuade the audience to buy a product or
service. They use various elements like text, language, and imagery to create meaning in the
advertisement. The purpose of this essay is to analyze how text is used to create meaning in an
advertisement and identify which statement best describes it. The thesis statement for this essay
states that the language used in advertisements emphasizes profit rather than providing detailed
information about the product.
Body Paragraph 1
The advertisement chosen for analysis is a car commercial that uses phrases like "Limited
Time Offer” and "Get Yours Today" in its text, emphasizing urgency and scarcity. Such
statements highlight profits as they encourage potential buyers to purchase the vehicle
immediately without much thought or consideration regarding its actual value.
Body Paragraph 2
In addition, the advertisement also uses images of young people driving through scenic
locations, creating a sense of adventure and freedom associated with owning their car brand. This
creates an emotional connection between consumers and the brand by portraying how owning
such vehicles will make them feel.
3
Body Paragraph 3
Logical fallacies such as appeal to emotion can be seen when advertisers attempt to
manipulate consumers' feelings by associating their products with happiness or success. These
manipulations often contribute towards creating meaning in advertising by misleading audiences
into purchasing something they might not need at all.
Conclusion
In conclusion, advertisements use several techniques like imagery, language, logical
fallacies etc., which help create meaning within them explaining why they exist beyond
encouraging purchases simply. In this essay we have analyzed how texts are used within ads
highlighting profits instead of giving detailed information about products. Its significance lies in
understanding how these tactics work together allowing marketers present themselves more
effectively while influencing consumer behavior; being aware of ads’ ploys may help us resist
unnecessary purchases — indicating a need for better regulation on what businesses can market
so that fewer people waste their resources because of ads’ deceitful nature (Smith & Burdick).

Explanation:
How does Eleanor’s mother, Rebecca, feel about the likelihood that Germany will invade Poland? Use three pieces of evidence from the passage to support your answer.
Answers
Summers in Warsaw are relatively mild: a bit humid, not too warm. That summer, 1939,
Eleanor’s family had spent all of July and August visiting her grandparents, who lived on a farm
in the country. She and her older sister Mary had spent the month hiking all around their
grandparents’ property and the surrounding farms, collecting leaves and flowers to dry and
keep in their scrapbooks. Each evening, they would carefully hang the day’s treasures up on a
nail in the loft where they slept. Their grandfather helped them label the plants with a piece of
cloth that they tied to the nail. By the end of the month, they had quite a collection—the loft
was fragrant with the smell of dried flowers and grass, and the shadows of the plants were
stiff and looked like winter.
At the end of August, they packed up their big trunk in preparation for returning to the
city. Eleanor was sitting in the kitchen helping her mother and grandmother pack sandwiches
and apples for the train trip.
“Are you sure you want to go back?” Eleanor’s grandmother asked her mother.
“What else could we do?” her mother said. She shrugged. When Eleanor’s mother
shrugged like that, it meant that Eleanor’s father had probably made the decision.
“Stay here, Rebecca. Stay with the children.”
Eleanor’s mother shook her head. “Joseph has already decided,” she said. “We’re going
to wait it out.”
Eleanor’s grandmother shook her head. “This is a bad idea,” she said.
Eleanor’s mother did not respond. They finished packing the lunches in silence.
That night in bed, Eleanor couldn’t sleep. They would have to leave the farm very early
the next morning, but Eleanor’s mind was busy—as her mother would say, it was whirring and
stirring, mostly with questions. Why would it be a bad idea to go home? Why wouldn’t her
mother want to go back? Her father was there, had been working all summer in the dental
office he owned with his brother. She poked Mary to see if she was awake, but Mary just
groaned and turned over in bed.
Eleanor stared at the wooden ceiling of the loft. For some reason, she felt scared.
Maybe it was the way her grandmother’s voice sounded. Or the strange cryptic warning she
had given her mother. At eleven years old, Eleanor knew some things about the world, but not
much. She was just beginning to get a feel for the ways people spoke and the hidden messages
in their words. Either way, Eleanor was not sure she wanted the summer to end.
The next morning, Eleanor’s mother woke them up gently. It was still dark out, and
Eleanor’s grandparents were asleep. Mary carried the basket full of food, their mother carried their trunk with a sling, and Eleanor held her little brother Alfred’s hand as they walked a mile
in the woods to the train station. On the train, all three children fell asleep. Eleanor woke up at
one point to see her mother staring out the window, her arms crossed over her chest, her
eyebrows furrowed low over her eyes.
When they reached Warsaw, their father was at the train station with Uncle Abraham.
Eleanor was excited to see her father, and she ran into his arms when he held them out for a
hug. He picked her up easily, and she felt immediately safe—all of her worries and fears from
the night before melted away as he welcomed the rest of the family and they walked back to
their home.
At the house, Mary went to her room to read and Alfred took a nap. Eleanor sat on the
floor of the front room listening to the radio behind the couch as her parents talked. Eleanor
was sure they didn’t realize she was there.
“I’m worried, Joseph,” her mother said.
“I have very good sources who say that it’s going to be fine. Hitler signed a
nonaggression pact with us… He can’t flout international law and opinion so easily.”
“Look what happened to Austria last year! And Czechoslovakia. Did you not hear about
this Eichmann person in Prague? Jews had to pay damages when their homes and businesses
were vandalized! Do you not get the news in Warsaw?”
Eleanor turned the volume of the radio down and inched closer to the back of the
couch. Maybe this is what her grandmother was worried about… This Eichmann person.
“Rebecca, please be realistic and calm. Has your mother put hysterical notions in your
head?”
“This isn’t about my mother. This is about what’s happening in Poland.” Eleanor’s
mother sounded furious. She stood abruptly and left the room.
Eleanor’s father sighed and leaned back into the couch so it creaked. He looked over the
back of the couch and saw Eleanor lying on the floor.
“You little sneak,” he said, and smiled. “Don’t listen to your mother. Poland is a civilized
country, just like any other.”

Answer:
Initially, the obstacles Gregor faces are largely physical. Your answer could include the following points:
Not used to his insect body, Gregor has a tough time trying to get up from his bed. He tries to go back to sleep and forget what has happened to him, but he can only rock from side to side because of the shape of his back.
He now has wiggly legs turned up toward the ceiling, which he can’t control.
He feels an itch on his stomach and reaches out with one of his legs to scratch the area, but his own belly, now full of white spots, repulses him.
When his mother asks him to open the door, he only manages to twist and rock his body.
When he tries to answer his mother, he realizes his voice has changed. Instead of talking, he can only squeak. Although he thinks he is speaking normally, others are unable to hear him.
He manages to turn sideways and dangle off his bed, but he hurts his back in the process.
When the chief clerk from Gregor’s office comes to ask why he’s late for work, everyone urges Gregor to open the door of his room. He manages to turn the lock with his mouth after a lot of difficulty.
He notices that his legs now ooze a sticky liquid.
Still not used to his new body, Gregor hurts himself while trying to scurry inside his bedroom and gets stuck in the doorway.

Before skiers and snowboarders hit the slopes, they need to know what routes to take down a mountain. Parks and resorts rely on ski maps to provide this information to visitors. These maps show a mountain’s topography—the arrangement of an area’s natural features—including slopes, cliffs, and forests. Along with needing to be detailed and accurate, ski maps must look visually appealing to entice people to explore the mountain.
That’s where Rad Smith comes in. He’s an artist and designer specializing in cartography, or mapmaking. He uses geographic data to craft maps that chart ski routes while also highlighting mountains’ breathtaking terrain and surrounding landscapes. Science World spoke with Smith to find out how he creates informative and beautiful maps. How did you become interested in maps and mapmaking?
I’ve been interested in the natural world my whole life. As a kid growing up in North Carolina and Georgia, I spent a lot of time outdoors. I was also a big collector of maps. Every time I got an issue of National Geographic magazine, the first thing I would do was flip through it to find the maps. When I grew up, I decided to pursue a degree in fine art. I studied painting, drawing, and sculpting. Along with giving me valuable technical skills, my education also taught me to observe things more closely.
ROUGH DRAFT: Smith works on a pencil sketch of a map.
After I graduated, I worked in graphic design. Graphic designers use visuals to communicate messages or ideas. That could include creating a logo for a company or making technical diagrams for a scientific publication. At one point, I was creating designs for ski clothing. That reminded me of my interest in the outdoors. Soon after, I made my first location maps for an outdoor magazine using watercolor paints. I loved it! Then I got a job at an environmental consulting firm and spent 20 years making maps for experts like biologists and historians. Now, I make mostly ski maps.
FLYOVER: Smith finds it helpful to view an area’s features from an aircraft. How do you make your maps? It begins with a lot of conversation. I like to speak with a person who knows the area well. For a ski area, that might be a site manager or ski patroller. We talk about what parts of the landscape need emphasis. I usually visit the property and get an aerial view, either from an airplane or with a drone. If it’s a ski map, I like to ski all over
Next, I gather technical information, like satellite images and topographic data—or elevation measurements—that tells me the exact size of every feature on the mountain.
Then I create a basic line drawing. I ask myself: Are the right features being highlighted? Is it a believable scene? I show my initial drawing to the client to see if they are happy with the direction. Then I create a more detailed pencil sketch. Once that’s approved, I bring it to life with watercolors. I paint buildings, trees, and valleys. From start to finish, a map can take two to three months. TOURIST ATTRACTION: Smith drew this map, which shows Big White Ski Resort in Canada. If you could make a map of any place, where would it be? I’ve never mapped anything underwater. That’s a special type of mapmaking called bathymetric mapping. I would love to map the terrain of the ocean floor. So far, only about 20 percent of the ocean floor has been accurately mapped—that means we know more about the surface of the moon than we do about the seafloor! One thing I love about maps is that they can take anybody anywhere without them having to go to that place. So I think mapping somewhere that most people never get to see would be really exciting.
JOB PROFILE: MAPMAKER
Median Salary: $69,000
Educational Requirements: Mapmaking often requires a college-level understanding of geography or geographic information systems (GIS)—computer software that captures and displays visual data about the Earth’s surface. Courses in visual design, drawing, and painting are also useful. Gearing Up: Build a portfolio of your own by creating maps of places that interest you. You can draw maps by hand or using computer software.

In the South, according to the Missouri Compromise, slavery would be ______, but not required or _________.
If you don't know it don't answer with random shii
Answers
In 1820, amid growing sectional tensions over the issue of slavery, the U.S. Congress passed a law that admitted Missouri to the Union as a slave state and Maine as a free state, while banning slavery from the remaining Louisiana Purchase lands located north of the 36º 30’ parallel.
The Missouri Compromise, as it was known, would remain in force for just over 30 years before it was repealed by the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854. In 1857, the Supreme Court ruled the compromise unconstitutional in the Dred Scott case, setting the stage for the nation’s final path toward the Civil War.
