Do more people see a solar eclipse or a lunar eclipse? Explain why that would be.
You are more likely to see a solar eclipse.
Even though Solar and Lunar eclipses happen around the same speed, you would probably be more likely to see a lunar eclipse since the moon is going under the shadow of the earth. A solar eclipse is when the moon shadows part of the earth (by lining up in front of the sun). I personally think that it is much more likely to see a solar eclipse than a lunar eclipse however science says otherwise and I wouldn't want to make a wrong answer.
Hope this helps.

If you were in charge of Distance Learning, what would you do to make classes better?
I NEED EXAMPLES! GIVING POINTS :)!
Answer:
I'd focus less on providing students with busy work consistently and put my energy into ensuring they're OKAY during this pandemic whilst also resuming their education. Classes are pressuring and just put more stress onto students which results in failure to provide solid schoolwork with correct and thought out answers, less is more sometimes.
Explanation:
Answer:
if I were in charge of distance learning I would do a lot of things. First would give certain teachers to online students while other teachers to f2f. If kids do good things they should get rewarded and not just say good job while f2f kids get candy and stuff. I would fix academic integrity.
Select the best answer to the question: What is an example of a fortuitous event? *
showing up on time for a date
forgetting to take out the trash
comforting a friend who is feeling sad
running into an old friend who is in town for one day
Answer:
Running into an old friend who is in town for one day.
Explanation:
The term "fortuitous" refers to a chance occurrence, a surprising and unexpected event that happened, a fortunate event. This word is used to talk about things that happened unplanned and completely unexpected.
A fortuitous event means an event that happened so suddenly and unexpectedly that it leaves you shocked and completely unforeseen. Such an event is wholly unexpected and surprising. So, running into an old friend who's in town for a single day is a fortuitous event, for it is a chance encounter and not something that happens often or even planned.
Thus, the correct answer is the last/ fourth option.

When is it right to take a stand? What have you learned about how to take action from this article? Have yo revised your views at all? How?
Hello. You did not inform the article to which this question refers, which makes it difficult for it to be answered accurately. However, I will help you in the best possible way.
It is right to make a decision when you feel the need to defend something you believe in, or when you need to change a situation. This must be done taking into account respect and calm, so that the positioning is effective. In this case, before taking a position it is necessary to analyze the whole situation, promoting the understanding of the points of view until it is necessary to choose one. This should not be done in a hurry and based on emotions, but based on reason.
Does it mean that we have learned from the past? Does it
mean that society has changed? Has the human being
become less indifferent and more human? Have we really
learned from our experiences? Are we less insensitive to
the plight of victims of ethnic cleansing and other forms of
injustices in places near and far? Is today's justified
intervention in Kosovo, led by you, Mr. President, a lasting
warning that never again will the deportation, the
terrorization of children and their parents, be allowed
anywhere in the world? Will it discourage other dictators in
other lands to do the same?

1.Read the excerpt from the story Penguin Parade: An Antarctic Adventure and listen to the audio clip:
We boarded a flight from Orlando, Florida to Buenos Aires in Argentina.
We would then board a ship that would take us from Argentina to the remote Snow Hill Island in the Weddell Sea. Mom slept for the whole plane ride, but I stayed awake and researched penguins that live in Antarctica on my phone. I hadn't realized how many penguins didn't live in cold areas like Antarctica. Apparently, I wasn't the only one on the plane interested in reading about animals. The boy sitting across the aisle from me was reading a book about sharks, which was pretty neat.
How does the audio clip contribute to the tone of the story? (2 points)
The audio clip explains why the characters took an airplane instead of taking a boat.
The audio clip helps the reader feel as though they are flying with the characters.
The audio clip makes the reader scared for the safety of all the characters.
The audio clip tells the reader that the flight was dangerous, and everyone was nervous.

Read the excerpt from the story Penguin Parade: An Antarctic Adventure and look at the image:
The emperor penguins laid their eggs in early spring, and the eggs hatched in late summer. There were several locations where they gathered, and Mom and I researched them all. We decided that Snow Hill Island would be the best place to start taking pictures. There was a large rookery, or penguin nesting area, there, and it appeared to be the best place for Mom to get some great photos of the penguin chicks. (2 points)

How would the meaning of the excerpt change if the image was removed and replaced with this audio clip?
The focus would be on the character relationship rather than the fact that they are in a cold location.
The focus would be on the mother and daughter taking pictures, rather than the cuteness of the baby penguin.
The focus would be on the type of camera the character is using rather than adorable baby penguins.
The focus would be on the weather rather than on the relationship between the mother and daughter characters.

The sentence to this question is "The stone doesn't move by itself".
Through the above-given sentence, "Stone" is a part of the noun, "move" is the use in the place of the verb, and the whole sentence explains the quality of the stone, that's why it is an adjective.
In this sentence term "move" can't be defined as a noun because it is a verb. similarly, the term "stone" can't be defined as a verb because it is a noun.
