Nature’s Loss
No one knows for sure how many animals died from the oil spill. Soon after the spill, 35,000 dead birds and 1,000 dead sea otters were collected from the oily shores. Dead animals often sink. For this reason, experts believe the number of dead animals was probably much greater. Scientists think that 2,800 sea otters, 300 harbor seals, 250 bald eagles, and 22 killer whales may have died from the spill. In addition, millions of salmon and herring eggs were coated with oil and never hatched.

“There was something calling to him out there in the open. His mother heard it, too. But she heard also that other and louder call, the call of the fire and of man.”
“Lip-lip was upon him, bullying and hectoring him, or fighting with him until he had driven him away.”
“Grey Beaver continued to beat, White Fang continued to snarl. . . . One or the other must give over, and that one was White Fang.”

Answers

Answer:

Grey Beaver continued to beat, White Fang continued to snarl....one or the other must give over, and that one was White fang.

Answer:

“There was something calling to him out there in the open. His mother heard it, too. But she heard also that other and louder call, the call of the fire and of man.”

Explanation: There is an instinct they are feeling and a fear. This is an internal conflict-- making a decision between opposing feelings or ideas. We can only imagine how animals feel or "think", but we assume it may be similar, in some ways, to human instinct, feelings and thought.

What are some points of agreement in both arguments automation paradox and heads up humans?

Answers

Answer:

The Paradox of Automation says that the more efficient the automated system, the more crucial the human contribution of the operators. Humans are less involved, but their involvement becomes more critical.

Explanation:

Both texts agree that automation in jobs will be increasingly common and that this will be positive for humanity.

We can arrive at this answer because:

"The Automation Paradox" and "Heads Up, Humans" are texts that speak about the automation of work.Both texts agree that automation will be increasingly intense and that much work will no longer be performed by human beings and will be performed by machines.However, both texts believe that automation will still be dependent on human maintenance, meaning that human work will still be done.

Furthermore, both texts recognize that automation has benefits such as reducing the cost of products and increasing industrial production.

Read the excerpt from “Harriet Tubman: A Life of Toil and Triumph.” When her work in the South was finished, Harriet finally returned to her home in New York. There she helped former enslaved persons adjust to their new lives. It would seem like her life’s work was over, now that freedom and education for former enslaved persons was assured. However, a life of ease was not part of Harriet’s plan, and it was no surprise to those who knew her that she took up yet another cause. Before long she was off on a tour with Susan B. Anthony to rally support for women’s right to vote. Finally, at the age of 83, Harriet Tubman was ready to return home for good. She did so, and then immediately had a house built nearby to serve homeless seniors. She then worked at the Harriet Tubman Home for the Aged until 1911, when she became too frail to do so and was made an honorary resident. She died in 1913 at the age of 93 and was buried with full military honors. It was a fitting celebration for a woman who was born enslaved, yet chose to use her free life in ways that served us all. Which detail from the excerpt reveals a change in public attitude during Harriet Tubman’s lifetime? Tubman built a home for homeless seniors. Tubman was buried with full military honors. Tubman returned home at the age of 83. Tubman helped former slaves adjust to freedom.

Answers

Answer:

Susan B. Anthony was a crusader for equal rights.

Susan B. Anthony was an American activist for women's emancipation and political rights.

Anthony grew up in a quaker family and initially worked as a teacher. She was an early advocate for the abolition of slavery along with her family who joined the Abolitionist movement during the 1840s when the family moved to the city of Rochester in New York. This laid the foundation for her focus as a social reformer, focusing on issues such as women's economic situation and women's suffrage. She also came to represent the American Anti-Slavery Society in New York until the start of the Civil War.

After a period of work on his family's farm, Anthony came to work on women's rights issues and social reforms full-time. She became involved in what came to be called the suffragette movement, where she came to play a central role. Together with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, she founded the National Woman Suffrage Association in 1869. She constantly expressed her opinion through lectures and writings that the key to women's liberation lay in political representation. She also emphasized that all other reforms, however important they may be, could never be more important than the demand for women's suffrage.

Almost immediately after joining the movement, she signed a petition addressed to the New York state legislature. There, she demanded three major reforms: 1) the woman's right to manage her own earnings, 2) the custody of the children in the event of a divorce, and 3) the right to vote. Her and organization's efforts finally won the hearing, and in 1860 the state of New York passed a bill that gave the woman the right to "in addition to possessing property also dispose of her own earnings, initiate process and, upon the death of her husband, have the same rights as he had over his wife had passed away before him ". These reforms were a step on the road for women in New York.

When the Civil War broke out in 1861, all activities for women's liberation ceased. Some followers such as Louisa May Alcott chose to work as a nurse, but Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton visited all major cities instead with the slogan "No compromises with slave owners"; they succeeded in gathering 400,000 signatures, which led Congress to approve the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, which meant that all slaves would be released immediately.

Work on women's right to vote came to continue to be pursued through the National Woman Suffrage Association and only in 1920, 14 years after Anthony's death as the United States introduced female suffrage through the 19th Amendment.

There was no fear or tension to be found in this happy scene.

The mother suddenly jumped up. her fur was standing up and her teeth showed. The pups immediately stopped their play. Humans were coming. Sure enough, ten minutes had not passed by before several black vehicles pulled up and parked in front of the hill. Several of them got out and and looked around them. They seemed to talk about something regarding the area. Thirty minutes passed before the shook hands and left. The wolf glanced sadly around her.

Once upon a time, there was a cat as domesticated as a cat can be nowadays. Her name was Mitty and she was a Turkish Angora. She had one blue and one amber eye with white fur and a few black spots. Mitty  loved her owners and was treated like a princess above all of her sisters and brothers. She had never been taken outside except to go to the vet but one day the door was accidentally left open. She was a very curious cat so she decided to go exploring in the nearby woods. She had wondered quite a bit and stop when she realized that she did not know where she was, she was lost.

Cautiously, she had walked further into the woods when she heard a very strange and spooky noise. The noise coming from a bush that was right next to her. She took a step toward the bush and it moved again but for a shorter time. After she stared at it for about 2 minutes, she moved forward two steps and it did not move. After she stared at it for 1 more minute, it started moving again and out leaped a hungry looking fox. She hissed at it and surprisingly it back up a little bit. Her hiss was loud and mean so it would be scared of her. It was still growling at her though so, she hissed louder and stepped backward because she had never seen a creature like this before. It attacked biting her on the back, which made her mad. She decided to be brave and bite one ankle of the fox and then the other. The fox retreated and Mitty had won her first fight. She now believed she could survive in the wild.
