After failing to make the high school varsity team Michael Jordan.... A. Thought about playing a different sport B. Used his disappointment to work harder C. Proved to his coach that he was good enough D. Congratulated his best friend on making the team
Answer:Letter B: Used his disappointment to work harder
Explanation:
Passage
After failing to make the high school varsity team Michael Jordan is Used his disappointment to work harder. Hence, option B is correct.
When did Michael Jordan make his varsity team?During the summer before his junior year, Jordan started to change. He exercised constantly and grew four inches taller in 1979. That year, he switched to the varsity squad and rapidly became the best player at Laney High, averaging over 20 points each game.
The most recent Michael Jackson urban legend to be disproven was the idea that the future Hall of Famer was "cut" by his high school coach while he was a sophomore at Laney High School, leaving the young Michael to feel aggrieved.
It seems like Jordan was never actually let go from the team. To help him develop, he was transferred to junior varsity. He remarked, "I want to win more championships." I want equity. I want to be in charge of basketball operations.
Thus, option B is correct.

Match the underlined words to their meanings based on their context in this excerpt from Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol.
A terrible voice in the hall cried, “Bring down Master Scrooge’s box, there!” and in the hall appeared the schoolmaster himself, who glared on Master Scrooge with a ferocious condescension, and threw him into a dreadful state of mind by shaking hands with him. He then conveyed him and his sister into the veriest old well of a shivering best-parlour that ever was seen, where the maps upon the wall, and the celestial and terrestrial globes in the windows, were waxy with cold. Here he produced a decanter of curiously light wine, and a block of curiously heavy cake, and administered instalments of those dainties to the young people: at the same time, sending out a meagre servant to offer a glass of “something” to the postboy, who answered that he thanked the gentleman, but if it was the same tap as he had tasted before, he had rather not. Master Scrooge’s trunk being by this time tied on to the top of the chaise, the children bade the schoolmaster good-bye right willingly; and getting into it, drove gaily down the garden-sweep: the quick wheels dashing the hoar-frost and snow from off the dark leaves of the evergreens like spray.

is for this speech?
Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I am speaking to you tonight at a very serious moment in our history. The Cabinet is convening and
the leaders in Congress are meeting with the President. The State Department and Army and Navy officials have been with the President
all afternoon. In fact, the Japanese ambassador was talking to the president at the very time that Japan's airships were bombing our
citizens in Hawaii and the Philippines and sinking one of our transports loaded with lumber on its way to Hawaii.
By tomorrow morning the members of Congress will have a full report and be ready for action,
In the meantime, we the people are already prepared for action. For months now the knowledge that something of this kind might
happen has been hanging over our heads and yet it seemed impossible to believe, impossible to drop the everyday things of life and feel
that there was only one thing which was important - preparation to meet an enemy no matter where he struck. That is all over now and
there is no more uncertainty
We know what we have to face and we know that we are ready to face it.
Answer:
we the people are already prepared for action

The real issue is that the use of nuclear power and nuclear weapons is forcing humankind, and indeed the whole ecosystem, to participate in a particularly cruel and totally uncontrolled experiment. Given the scientific evidence that there is no safe dose of radiation, this is an experiment that has already gone awry. . . .
The real question is whether we, as a human race, can afford in good conscience to risk annihilation with our continued reliance on nuclear technology. Can we continue to despoil our environment with long-lived radioactive materials that are scattered to the wind and embedded in our precious soil, randomly exposing large populations, and foisting health impacts on unsuspecting future generations who have no choice in this matter?
We may choose to do so. But if we do, I am quite sure that our children and grandchildren will roundly condemn us for our lack of foresight and our selfishness. As they struggle to deal with a poisonous environment and waste that must be safeguarded for thousands of years, they will certainly wonder what possessed us to do this.

What are emotions?Emotions are mental states brought on by neurophysiological changes, variously associated with thoughts, feelings, behavioral responses, and a degree of pleasure or displeasure.There is currently no scientific consensus on a definition.Emotions are often intertwined with mood, temperament, personality, disposition, or creativity.
Research on emotion has increased over the past two decades with many fields contributing including psychology, medicine, history, sociology of emotions, and computer science. The numerous attempts to explain the origin, function and other aspects of emotions have fostered intense research on this topic.
Theorizing about the evolutionary origin and possible purpose of emotion dates back to Charles Darwin. Current areas of research include the neuroscience of emotion, using tools like PET and fMRI scans to study the affective picture processes in the brain.

1. Open you mouth and stick out you're tongue Dr West said.
2. Marios plain ticket to florida costed lesser money than mine.
Answer:
1. Open your mouth and stick out your tongue.
2. Mario's plane ticket to Florida cost less money than mine.
I hope this helps :)
Explanation:
Answer:
1. "Open your mouth and stick out your tongue," Dr. West said.
2. Mario's plane ticket to Florida costed less money than mine.
Explanation:
Since the first sentence has dialogue in it, the words said by Dr. West need to be surrounded by quotation marks, and since the punctuation would be a period, it is switched to a comma, because there is explanatory text after the dialogue (Dr. West said). It is important to note that the comma (or any form of punctuation at the end of any sentence when dialogue and quotation marks are present) goes inside the quotation marks. "You" refers to a person, while "your" is the possessive form of "you" - indicating that what is being spoken about belongs to 'you'. "You're" and "your" are very commonly confounded, the meaning of "your" is explained above, "you're" is the contracted form of "you are". In this case, the tongue belongs to the person deemed as "you" thus you would say "your tongue", not "you're tongue" (the latter would mean you are tongue).
The second sentence incorporates the possessive form of Mario, indicating that what is being talked about belongs to Mario (in this case, the plane ticket). The way it is written in the given sentence, "Marios", implies that there are multiple people named Mario that are the subject of the sentence. Where it says "plain ticket", what is meant is definitely an airplane ticket - not a ticket to go to the plains. "Plains" and "planes" are also commonly mixed up, the first one being somewhat synonymous to fields, and the second being airplanes, those large machines that fly above our heads faster than we can imagine. The word "lesser" would only be used when referring to quality, and "less than" is used when speaking of quantity.
