Read the passage below, taken from history and geography 7, unit 6. write a summary of the passage. your work should be approximately one-third the length of the original. when you have carefully checked your summary using the "summary checking guidelines," send the summary to your teacher. archaeologists have found that people lived on the north american continent many years ago--long before all the glaciers had melted from this land. many archaeologists think these people came to this land by crossing the bering strait between asia and alaska. only fifty-six miles lie between the two great land masses. the greatest distance between the tiny islands that lie between the land masses is only twenty-five miles, making a crossing at that point possible. although no one knows exactly how and when the earliest settlers came to north america, the reason why they came is known--they came to find food. as nomads, the early inhabitants of north america were accustomed to moving from place to place in search of food for their large herds of animals. during the winter these nomads would set up camps and waited for spring before moving on. in the spring and summer they would lead their herds to good grazing land. eventually, these people crossed over from asia onto the north american continent. they migrated as far as the east coast and as far south as the tip of south america. artifacts from this era show that the tools people used were intended for hunting animals, including the mammoth, the ground sloth, the tapir, the caribou, and the bison. the nomads depended upon these animals for both food and clothing. (adapted from "native americans." history and geography 7.alpha-omega publications, 1999.) a review of the summary checking guidelines are as follows: does the topic sentence include the main idea? is the summary clear and concise? is the summary about one-fourth or one-third the length of the original? does it express the author's ideas and not a private interpretation?

Archaeologists discovered that people came to the North American continent long ago possibly by crossing fifty-six miles between Asia and Alaska. While the date and details of their trip remain unknown, as nomads, they migrated during the spring and summer in search of food for their herds and camped during the winter. Eventually, they settled from the east coast to the tip of South America. Artifacts found from this era were used for hunting animals to get food and clothing.

write two paragraphs to compare and contrast the narrators’ schools and explain how their schools shape their perspectives toward the hijab. cite evidence from the text to support your ideas.

copy and paste answer:

two paragraphs to compare and contrast the narrator's schools would be this, the one school with the veil is the one school were the students were forced to wear the veils, and they did not know why they had to wear the veils. the girl student writing the story was not like the other students, she didn't care. in the second school there was a lot of hostile activities going on throughout the school. most of the students were upset and this, including the author, but she was trying to look and the good side of things.  

overall, both schools had something that the students or most of the students did not like or appreciate. what you can learn from these stories is that life will never be exactly how you may want it to be. complaining about your lifestyle will only make matters worse or at least feel worse in the long run. that's happens to be the information you can interpret from these two stories.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
