The Apollo Space Program 1 Apollo's Moon mission was one of the biggest challenges that the government had undertaken. Over 34,000 NASA employees and 375,000 outside contractors took part in the Apollo program to make the dream of walking on the Moon come true. The Apollo program began as a "space race" between the United States and the Soviet Union (present-day Russia). However, President Kennedy surprised the world by suggesting that the two countries would work together to fulfill the world's dream of exploring the Moon.

2 NASA had planned a total of 17 Apollo missions. At the beginning, most Apollo missions focused on successfully orbiting the Earth. However, many of those missions failed. On October 11, 1968, following several unmanned Earth-orbit flights, Apollo 7 successfully orbited the Earth 163 times. Apollo 7 carried a full crew of three astronauts. Later, Apollo 8 took the the first step toward manned lunar exploration. Apollo 9 carried out a long mission around Earth's orbit to check if the Lunar Module functioned properly. Apollo 10 journeyed to the lunar orbit and tested the Lunar Module to within 15.2 km of the Moon's surface. Finally, in July 1969, Apollo 11 performed the step-by-step procedure and landed on the Moon. On July 20, astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the Moon's surface.
3 The Apollo 13 was launched in April 1970, but it suffered an accident from an oxygen tank explosion because of which it had to safely return to Earth. The other Apollo missions that followed conducted several experiments on the Moon's surface and even collected 842 pounds of Moon rock. Apollo 17 was the final Apollo mission that took place in December 1972. In total, there were six successful Moon landings, and twelve American astronauts walked on the Moon.
4 The Apollo Space Program proved to the world that manned space exploration was a real possibility. The current space programs are only at an intermediate stage of development, but soon, they will advance to help humans walk on not just the Moon but possibly on different planets.

1. drag the central argument paine presents and its two claims to complete the chart. argument claims america may have flourished more had it not been under the power of any european country. america may have flourished under britain in the past, but there is no guarantee that it will continue to flourish in the future. america will continue to flourish as long as the essential food products it sells are bought and eaten in europe. the american colonies will no longer flourish when britain makes war against them. britain's king has shown himself to be prejudiced against the colonies, rather than wanting them to flourish.

2.select the sentence in this passage that can be classified as a false statement.

although few humans per year are attacked by polar bears, any individual attack can be terrifying and even fatal. the warming of arctic regions has allowed the intrusion of humans into the polar bears’ habitat, increasing the danger of harmful contacts. remaining alert and using precautions can humans avoid a negative encounter with a polar bear. traveling together and staying close to the group can humans avoid bear attacks. certain weapons, including nonlethal ones such as pepper spray, are effective against polar bears. once a bear has decided to attack, however, nothing can be done.

3.select the sentence in this passage that demonstrates the fallacy of making an extreme either-or claim.

the civil war was the bloodiest conflict in the history of the united states. more than 600,000 soldiers lost their lives. the fighting took place in many different cities and throughout the countryside. the wounded often suffered acute pain while in the field hospitals. they all should have asked for better care. william hammond, the surgeon general of the union army, created a new system of sanitary field care. if people do not accept hammond as the most important person from the civil war, they have no understanding of the war.

jeez la wheeze! i just checked other people who had the same question as you and both had terrible answers.

i hope i could be a little bit of a though!

hmm, lets see here. okay! so, i don't know the passages exactly since i haven't taken that quiz before, but! i will try to the best i can.

if you need on what igbo means, ill give you a hand.

igbo means a member of a people of southeastern nigeria.

so, they're asking you, "what passage uses igbo words or phrases and in at least 100 words, identify the kinds of context clues the author uses to hint at the words' meaning."

so basically, don't stress or over look this.

look closely at the passages and see if you can spot any of those hints! it doesn't have to be all, remember, its a quiz! no right or wrong answers.

the teachers are always there to and if you are struggling on this topic they will notice it in your score on the quiz and you.

(; i do hope this is useful to you!     < 3
