Explanation:
Read the passage.
Summer Program
“It’s a perfect beach day,” I thought on my way home from school. Good beach days were common in southern Florida, but every once in a while there was a day that made a trip to the beach a must. Little did I know, this particular day at the beach would change my summer and my life forever.
The beach was crowded with the usual groups of regulars and tourists. Off in the distance, though, I noticed a large gathering of people. Just then, Roger, a friend of my family and a police officer, came over.
I pointed to the crowd. “What’s up with them?”
“They’re looking at the sea turtle nests,” said Roger. “We posted signs last summer listing some rules for the area. Though the signs might not be enough. Just the other day we found a nest that had been disturbed—probably by onlookers. The director at the conservancy doesn’t think any hatchlings will make it out of that nest.”
“That’s awful,” I said.
“It’s actually been problem for a long time. They need all the help they can get to protect the turtles. You know, I think the Sea Turtle Conservancy has an internship program…”
Roger didn’t have to say another word. The next day, I asked my mom for permission. A week after that, I was hired as an intern; I would start working at the conservancy on the first day of summer vacation.
In my first days at the conservancy, I learned a lot about sea turtles, like their amazing instincts and adaptation—that a green sea turtle could hold its breath for as long as five hours, and could slow its heart rate to 10 beats per minute to conserve oxygen.
But I also learned that they were vulnerable. It was not only the tourists on the beaches that were threatening the survival of the sea turtles. The turtles were getting caught in the nets dropped by fishing boats. Another major threat was the bright lights of the waterfront. I learned that when baby sea turtles hatch, they are naturally attracted to the light of the horizon. Since the area near the beach had become built up over the years, the lights of hotels and restaurants sometimes caused the hatchlings to move in the wrong direction. Unable to find the ocean and the food they needed to stay alive, they would die on the beach.
That summer, I worked with willing fisherman to track migration patterns. This helped us develop better conservation plans. I also worked to alert businesses on the waterfront of the dangers that their bright lights posed to the hatchlings. I even worked with other interns to erect a wooden fence around the nesting site to keep visitors at a safe distance.
I had no idea that one day and one moment would lead me to learn so much; I also never thought that I could make a difference. But, with a little knowledge and a lot of work, we were able to do just that and ensure that the sea turtle hatchlings would be safe for generations to come.
Why does the narrator most likely choose to write about this experience?
A)to describe how a person’s mistakes can provide lessons for the future
B) to warn readers about how fishing impacts the ocean environment
C) to explain how a chance encounter can change a person’s life
D) to persuade other young people to volunteer in their communities

How does Shirley Chisholm's speech "People and Peace, Not Profits and War" fit the pattern of a classical argument? Write
one paragraph explaining how Chisholm uses the elements of classical oration to make her argument. Be sure to cite
specific evidence from her speech and explain the strategy as well as the structure. Your paragraph should include 10-12
sentences
Answer:
This is my whole responce please paraphrase
Explanation:
In Shirley Chisholm’s Speech “People and Peace, Not Profits and War.” Chisholm uses introduction, narration, confirmation, refutation, and conclusion, all of which are effective in her speech to strengthen her argument that the military should not be pouring so much of the government’s money into the Vietnam War. Chisholm also uses ethos, pathos, and logos to strengthen her argument. An excellent example of Confirmation in Chisholm’s speech is the quote, “The new secretary of health, education, and welfare, Robert Finch, came to the Hill, to tell the House Education and Labor Committee that he thinks we should spend more on education, particularly in city schools. But, he said, unfortunately, we cannot “afford” to, until we have reached some kind of good solution to the Vietnam War.” (30) This quote establishes credibility for Chisholm as she uses the opinion of another credible person to help with the argument of how spending money on the war has consequences for American citizens. Another example that Chisholm uses that fit a classical argument is a narrative” I was one of the many Americans who hoped it would mean that our country would benefit from the fresh perspectives, the new ideas, the different priorities of a leader who had no part in the mistakes of the past. Mr. Nixon had said things like this: “If our cities are to be livable for the next generation, we can delay no longer in launching new approaches to the problems that beset them and to the tensions that tear them apart.” And he said, “When you cut expenditures for education, what you are doing is shortchanging the American future.” (10). Chisholm uses Narration of Nixon’s words and hers to share the dissatisfaction with how Nixon is dealing with the war and the money of America. Her claim is strengthened due to the fact she uses Nixon’s own words against him since Nixon preached many things that he would do, and Chisholm says, “But frankly, I have never cared too much what people say. What I am interested in is what they do.” That statement shows that when Nixon didn't prove his claims together with his actions, Chisholm was quite disappointed. Chisholm's speech does an excellent job of convincing her audience on how we should think of the well-being of Americans and not just war. she uses many rhetorical elements that help her claims.
It was the first day of swim camp at the community pool, and John was excited. He especially wanted to learn the butterfly stroke, which he'd seen on television during the Olympics. He looked at his mother, who was reading the camp roster. "Who's on my team?" he asked eagerly. "Someone named Micah Robinson. That sounds familiar. Do you know him?" she asked. John's face fell. Not Micah, he thought. He's the school's biggest bully. John tried to avoid Micah — that is, until they got in the water. Micah looked scared. "I don't know how to swim very well," he admitted. "Can you stay close to me in case I get into trouble?" John looked at Micah and thought about what he should do — then he agreed. By the end of the summer, John and Micah had become close friends, and when the school year started again, Micah had grown out of his bullying phase. Which detail from the text best helps you infer that the following statement is a theme of the story? Theme : Giving someone a second chance can be good for everyone. A. John tried to avoid Micah — that is, until they got in the water. B. Not Micah, he thought. He's the school's biggest bully. C. "I don't know how to swim very well," he admitted. D. By the end of the summer, John and Micah had become close friends
The detail from the text that best helps us infer that "Giving someone a second chance can be good for everyone" is:
D. By the end of the summer, John and Micah had become close friends (and when the school year started again, Micah had grown out of his bullying phase).
The two main characters in the story are John and Micah.Micah is the bully and John is just a regular kid who is afraid of Micah.When they both get into the swimming pool, Micah displays insecurity about his swimming skills. He even asks John for help.John could very well turn his back on Micah as a small revenge. After all, why should he help a bully?Instead, he decides to give Micah a second chance, which proves to be good for everyone.Not only do the both of them become friends, but Micah also stops bullying others.Learn more about the topic here:

HELP IM TIMED I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Read this passage from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.
"I should like to buy an egg, please,” she said timidly. "How do you sell them?”
"Fivepence farthing for one—Twopence for two,” the Sheep replied.
"Then two are cheaper than one?” Alice said in a surprised tone, taking out her purse.
"Only you MUST eat them both, if you buy two,” said the Sheep.
"Then I'll have ONE, please,” said Alice, as she put the money down on the counter. For she thought to herself, "They mightn't be at all nice, you know.”
The Sheep took the money, and put it away in a box: then she said "I never put things into people's hands—that would never do—you must get it for yourself.” And so saying, she went off to the other end of the shop, and set the egg upright on a shelf.
"I wonder WHY it wouldn't do?” thought Alice, as she groped her way among the tables and chairs, for the shop was very dark towards the end. "The egg seems to get further away the more I walk towards it. Let me see, is this a chair? Why, it's got branches, I declare! How very odd to find trees growing here! And actually here's a little brook! Well, this is the very queerest shop I ever saw!”

Both texts (the speech and the advertisement) address voluntourism. However, each text has a different purpose, which is reflected by the details each writer chose to include. Consider the words and images used.
In a paragraph of 6-8 sentences, identify what each text emphasizes and explain how that emphasis supports the claim of each argument. Be sure to state each argument's claim and include evidence from both texts to support your analysis.
While the first text addresses the harms of voluntouring, or volunteering and tourism, the second text, or the image, supports it. This can be seen by the first author saying, "However, this 'volunteer plus travel' experience can actually harm local communities. While many teens might view traveling and volunteering abroad as a worthwhile adventure, there are more genuine and effective ways to make a difference" thus implying that there are other good ways to help poor communities, such as, "If the world's citizens are your passion, it could go to an international organization. If you care about education, your funds can be used to buy books for students in faraway lands. If you want villagers to have clean water, contribute funds to local efforts to dig wells. If you want to experience a different culture, travel to the country as a guest, and learn from the locals how you can best help them after you've returned home. But do not voluntour." The first author also starts listing the harms of voluntouring, where he claims, "Proponents of the 'volunteer plus travel' experience also argue that traveling to new places builds character and is a valuable way to learn about different cultures. With voluntourism, however, participants often pursue experiences that are all about them. For example, they sign up to build a school for a gold star on their resume, but they have no real building skills and take jobs away from local construction workers (Schulten). Or, they arrive to teach English but instead take selfies with the locals. One world traveler and ethical voluntourist believes voluntourism 'can perpetuate small minded views of the world by taking insulated, fake, and structured experiences and selling them as unabridged and eye opening' (Carlos). The voluntour experience is a mirage. The voluntourist's eyes are not opened to real life at the destination, and lasting change is not achieved." The author also uses the technique of expert testimony in his text, by quoting Carlos, Michaels, Schulten, and Dale Rolfe, for multiple reasons, such as health facts, testimonies from workers, and even supporters of ethical voluntourism.
The author's claim in the second text is clear: They are supporting voluntourism. This can be easily seen by the author writing, "GIVE TWO WEEKS OF YOUR LIFE, AND GET THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE!" or "If you've always wanted to make a difference, here's your chance. The world is waiting for you." The author also backs up his claim with statistics, and although they are not directly related to the matter at hand, they are still related to voluntourism. The author says, "57 million children have no school to attend. 783 million people do not have access to clean and safe water worldwide. An estimated 27 million children sit in lonely orphanages throughout the world." And in an effort to further galvanize the reader into action, the author promises that it will not only be a volunteering effort to make the world a better place for some, but also a touristic visit. "Experience different cultures. See new countries... The only qualification necessary is a desire to help! The opportunities are endless!"

Minutes That Matter
By Kristina Waltz
As a teenager, whenever you have gone out with friends or traveled away from home, you've likely been asked to call and check in every once in a while. Most of us probably don't think much about doing so. We may even talk on the phone with friends or family members several times a day. But pretend for a moment that you are a soldier in the military. You have been sent overseas for several months, away from all of your family and friends, in order to serve your country. You might imagine that the ability to call home and talk with your loved ones would be something to look forward to. But what if those phone calls left you with a $7,600 phone bill?
When 14-year-old Brittany Bergquist and her 12-year-old brother Robbie, of Norwell, Massachusetts, saw a news story about a soldier who found himself with just this problem, they decided to help. Robbie recalls, "We were taken aback and wanted to make sure he didn't have to pay that cell phone bill!" They began by raising money. Brittany and Robbie donated 14 dollars of their own savings and collected seven dollars from friends. A local bank heard about what they were doing and donated $500. But $521 was nowhere near the amount needed to help the soldier pay his bill. So Brittany decided to send donated cell phones to the soldiers. This way, they would have their own phone to use when calling home, which would be less expensive. Brittany and Robbie collected as many old cell phones as they could. But there was a problem. Because of security concerns, the Pentagon would not allow the phones to be sent overseas. Brittany and Robbie were determined, so they came up with another idea. They found a cell phone recycler in Michigan who would pay them five dollars for each phone they sent in to be recycled. Using that money, they could buy pre-paid phone cards to send to the troops.
It didn't take long for the Cell Phones for Soldiers program to take off. Today, there are over seven thousand locations to drop off your old cell phone. The program has recycled over ten million phones since it was started in 2004. Over 180 million minutes of talk time have been given to the soldiers, and each week, about twelve thousand calling cards are sent. The Bergquist family still runs the program largely on their own. Brittany says that her involvement with the charity has helped her learn how to build awareness for a cause, and form relationships with companies that can help. Although she admits that she gets nervous when she has to do something that is out of her comfort zone, she has learned that it is important to overcome her fear so that her charity can continue to grow. She says founding Cell Phones for Soldiers "... has been the most positive and motivating experience of my life..." and that, "It's unbelievable and overwhelming to know that we've been able to help out families that we're never going to see; that we've had an impact on their lives."
Answer:
are you wanting me to summarize it?((sorry if i spelt summarize wrong))
Explanation:
they kids understood what it was like to be in debt so they where tiring to help the solder by donating but that didn't work so they kept donating for every phone that was recycled sorry if it's bad or wrong
