is " our plan to win the race includes training everyday " an adverb,adjective, or a noun
Your phrase 'Our plan to win the race' in 'Our plan to win the race includes training everyday' is acting as the noun phrase which serves as the subject of the sentence.
Explanation:In the sentence "Our plan to win the race includes training everyday" the phrase, "Our plan to win the race" is essentially a noun phrase which serves as the subject of the sentence. An adverb usually modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb but that's not the case in this sentence. An adjective modifies a noun or pronoun, but again it's not what this phrase is doing. Rather, this phrase introduces the subject matter or topic of the sentence which is a characteristic of a noun.

Which propaganda technique attempts to convince voters that the candidate is like them? Group of answer choices bandwagon endorsements just plain folks name calling
The 'just plain folks' propaganda technique is used by politicians to appear relatable to the average voter, often by dressing casually and engaging with ordinary people.
The propaganda technique that attempts to convince voters that the candidate is like them is known as just plain folks. This tactic is used extensively by politicians to appear relatable to the average voter. Politicians may showcase themselves wearing flannel shirts and interacting with everyday people in campaign ads, conveying the message, "I'm one of the guys, just like you." This approach capitalizes on the American distaste for elitism and presents powerful individuals as the 'common man', fostering a sense of similarity and trust with the audience.

How did Coates's experience at "Mecca" influence his perspective on "black people" in the diaspora? Cite evidence from the text to support your response.
Answer:
"Between the World and Me" by Ta-Nehisi Coates is a book, a personal narrative by the Author of some sorts which paints the picture of his mental liberation due to a his experience at a place he called "Mecca".
In the book, Coates refers to Howard University as his Mecca. Perhaps this is a subtle way of depicting Islam as is religion. His experience at his "Mecca" changed forever the way he saw black people.
In his own words he states:
"The Mecca—is a machine, crafted to capture and concentrate the dark energy of all African peoples and inject it directly into the student body. The Mecca derives its power from the heritage of Howard University, which in Jim Crow days enjoyed a near-monopoly on black talent. And whereas most other historically black schools were scattered like forts in the great wilderness of the old Confederacy, Howard was in Washington, D.C.—Chocolate City—and thus in proximity to both federal power and black power. I first witnessed this power out on the Yard, that communal green space in the center of the campus where the students gathered and I saw everything I knew of my black self multiplied out into seemingly endless variations. There were the scions of Nigerian aristocrats in their business suits giving dap to bald-headed Qs in purple windbreakers and tan Timbs. There were the high-yellow progeny of A.M.E. preachers debating the clerics of Ausar-Set. There were California girls turned Muslim, born anew, in hijab and long skirt. There were Ponzi schemers and Christian cultists, Tabernacle fanatics and mathematical geniuses. It was like listening to a hundred different renditions of “Redemption Song,” each in a different color and key. And overlaying all of this was the history of Howard itself. I knew that I was literally walking in the footsteps of all the Toni Morrisons and Zora Neale Hurstons, of all the Sterling Browns and Kenneth Clarks, who’d come before."
He celebrates the progress made thus far by everyone of whose skin is black. Progress because the pigmentation had become a global brand for everything inferior. Yet, the black people had come this far, reinventing themselves into a superior people who were unique and would not be bowed by the psychology of slavery.
Coates states and I quote:
"They made us into a race. We made ourselves into a people...but not all of us"
There were those who had been liberated the stigma of the black skin. There was those who were yet to be.
Cheers!

Read the passage.
Rovers are the best way to explore other planets. By sending rovers into space, we can learn about the universe without having to send people. Rovers are good at gathering information and measuring the planet they are on. They are also much more durable than humans and can survive much longer on a foreign planet. They are expensive to make, but the information they send back to Earth is worth the money it takes to build them.
Which statement best defends the author’s claim with additional evidence?
A) The Curiosity rover cost more than two billion dollars to design.
B) Rovers are interesting because of how their wheels are constructed.
C) Rovers are named by the scientists at NASA when they are completed.
D) The Curiosity rover will be able to explore Mars for up to 10 years.
Answer:
D) The Curiosity rover will be able to explore Mars for up to 10 years
Explanation:
In the passage it didn't mention what the actual price was, it just hinted that it was expensive to make.
It didn't say anything about how the wheel are constructed, nor who they were named by.
It did however say that Rovers are good at measuring the planet that they are on (so they can measure planets other than Earth) and they are much more durable than humans and can survive longer on a foreign planet (so they will be able to explore Mars for longer than a human could, which in this case is 10 years.)
Answer:

Explanation:
The Curiosity rover will be able to explore Mars for up to 10 years.

Explanation:
In the context of Internet content that some countries prohibit, discuss how the "responsibility to prevent access" differs from the "authority to prevent entry". (A) Define "responsibility to prevent access" in your own words (B) Define "authority to prevent entry" in your own words (C) Discuss how one differs from the other (D) Provide examples
Answer:
What would Noam Chomsky have said?
Explanation:
Noam Chomsky probably would have said that responsibility sounds better than authority but it actually means the same: internet censorship.
A The term responsibility gives moral ground to the person or authority: in plain English it says that, because internet is not good for you, we decided to protect you from it.
B Authority doesn´t sound that nice and, as all parents know, is very often contraproductive. But powerful regimes probably don´t care.
C The two terms differ in the sense that - as Noam Chomsky explained in Keeping the rabble in line - responsibility to prevent access is more likely to be accepted by the general public than authority to etc.
D A pre-internet example is the attempts of the Sovjet Union to keep The Beatles away from Russian youth.
An internet example is preventing access to topics that might put in danger the control of the authoritarian regime.

Who was the last of the Clutter family to go to sleep on the night of the murders, and what was in this person's final diary entry? How was this diary entry helpful to the investigating agents? In cold blood
Answer:
The last to go to sleep was Nancy and her last entry was about Bobby and how he was liked.
Explanation:
The Clutter family, parents Herb and Bonnie and teens Kenyon and Nancy, were wonderful, church-going and happy family residing on their farm in Holcomb, Kansas. The narrator follows the Clutters through the event pertaining to their last day on earth. Perry Smith and D ick Hickock, also known as the killers, slaughtered them late that night.
Perry and D ick left after the murders and made it to Mexico. Kansas lawman Alvin Dewey and his four special agents led the manhunt for the killer(s).
Truman Capote received first-class service from the KBI and Mr. Dewey, its lead detective on the case. Mr. Dewey gave the author access to the diary of 16-year-old Nancy Clutter which was her final entry logged only moments before the unexpected happened -
two strangers invaded her home in late 1959 and murdered her, her brother and her parents. Mr. Dewey opened the KBI's case file to Mr. Capote. He pressured press-shy locals to cooperate with the author and granted him important access to the killers. Mr. Dewey even helped Mr. Capote, a man from New York with no home in Kansas, obtain a Kansas driver's license.
Final answer:
The last Clutter family member's final diary entry is not documented in Truman Capote's “In Cold Blood,” thus, no information is available on its content or contribution to the investigation in the narrative context.
Explanation:
The last member of the Clutter family to go to sleep on the night of the murders, as depicted in “In Cold Blood” by Truman Capote, does not have a documented final diary entry in the narrative. The diary entry and its relevance to the investigating agents cannot be provided as it does not exist within the context of the story. However, real-life investigative details, separate from the novel, may discuss evidence or diary entries that were part of the forensic investigation. It's important to note that Capote's novel, while based on true events, takes artistic liberties with real-life circumstances and therefore may not have a direct correlation to actual diary entries or their impact on the investigation.

From their padded hangers;
She will dance no more

Sweep her narrow shoes
