How has America changed over time? Is the United States handling the current refugee crisis differently than during World War 2 and the Holocaust?
Answers
Regarding the current refugee crisis, it is difficult to make direct comparisons to World War 2 and the Holocaust, as the situations are different in several ways. However, there are some similarities and differences to consider. During World War 2 and the Holocaust, the US had strict immigration policies that made it difficult for refugees to enter the country, and many were turned away. In contrast, today's refugee crisis has led to debates over immigration policies and border control, but the US has still accepted many refugees and asylum seekers, although the process can be lengthy and difficult. Additionally, the US has implemented various programs and initiatives to help refugees resettle and integrate into society, such as providing education, housing, and job training.
Answer:
America has changed a lot over time. It was once a nation of immigrants, but in recent years, it has become more and more difficult for refugees to come to the United States. During World War II, the United States took in millions of refugees, but today, the number of refugees admitted each year is much smaller.
There are a number of reasons for this change. One reason is that the United States is now a much more diverse country than it was in the past. In the early 20th century, the majority of Americans were white, but today, the country is home to people from all over the world. This diversity has made some Americans less welcoming to refugees, who they see as outsiders.
Another reason for the change is that the United States is now facing a number of its own problems, such as economic inequality and terrorism. These problems have made some Americans less willing to help refugees, who they see as a drain on resources.
Despite these challenges, there are still many Americans who are willing to help refugees. There are a number of organizations that work to help refugees, and there are also many individual Americans who volunteer their time to help refugees adjust to life in the United States.
It is important to remember that refugees are people just like us. They are fleeing violence and persecution, and they are looking for a safe place to live. We should all do our part to help them.

(Someone helps asap! Ill give brainliest) Read this excerpt from "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson.
Although the villagers had forgotten the ritual and lost the original black box, they still remembered to use stones. The pile of stones the boys had made earlier was ready; there were stones on the ground with the blowing scraps of paper that had come out of the box. Mrs. Delacroix selected a stone so large she had to pick it up with both hands and turned to Mrs. Dunbar. “Come on,” she said. “Hurry up.”
Mrs. Dunbar had small stones in both hands, and she said, gasping for breath, “I can’t run at all. You’ll have to go ahead and I’ll catch up with you.”
The children had stones already, and someone gave little Davy Hutchinson a few pebbles.
Tessie Hutchinson was in the center of a cleared space by now, and she held her hands out desperately as the villagers moved in on her. “It isn’t fair,” she said. A stone hit her on the side of the head.
Old Man Warner was saying, “Come on, come on, every-one.” Steve Adams was in the front of the crowd of villagers, with Mrs. Graves beside him.
By the end of Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery," how does the contrast between the characters’ view of the lottery and that of readers' impact the story?
A. Because the characters view the lottery as fun and enjoyable, while readers see it as disappointing, it adds humor to the story.
B. Because the characters’ view the lottery as acceptable, while readers view it as horrific, it creates shock and suspense over Tessie's fate.
C. Because the characters view the lottery as an important annual ritual, while readers view it as outdated and dull, it gives the story a soothing tone.
D. Because the characters view the lottery as dangerous, while readers see it as exciting, it fuels confusion and outrage over Tessie's behavior.

B. Because the characters’ view the lottery as acceptable, while readers view it as horrific, it creates shock and suspense over Tessie's fate.
Explanation:
There is a description of the town and how they had a certain lottery every year and how some of the people did not like it, but wanted to continue tradition and as result of this, we can see that there is a horrific case of Tessie to the readers because they are shocked by the way her case turns out, but for the characters in the novel, it is already a normal way of life for them.

In this excerpt from H. H. Munro’s “The Open Window,” which line reveals the effect that Framton’s conversation has on other characters?
She rattled on cheerfully about the shooting and the scarcity of birds, and the prospects for duck in the winter. To Framton it was all purely horrible. He made a desperate but only partially successful effort to turn the talk on to a less ghastly topic; he was conscious that his hostess was giving him only a fragment of her attention, and her eyes were constantly straying past him to the open window and the lawn beyond. It was certainly an unfortunate coincidence that he should have paid his visit on this tragic anniversary.
“The doctors agree in ordering me complete rest, an absence of mental excitement, and avoidance of anything in the nature of violent physical exercise,” announced Framton, who laboured under the tolerably widespread delusion that total strangers and chance acquaintances are hungry for the least detail of one’s ailments and infirmities, their cause and cure. “On the matter of diet they are not so much in agreement,” he continued.
“No?” said Mrs. Sappleton, in a voice which only replaced a yawn at the last moment. Then she suddenly brightened into alert attention—but not to what Framton was saying.
“Here they are at last!” she cried. “Just in time for tea, and don’t they look as if they were muddy up to the eyes!”

Interpret what Nellie meant by this quote in the context of what you know about the story.
Answers
Answer: i believe Nellie is explaining that she understands that reporters are the ones that can really uncover a mystery (ferreting out - to solve or uncover something). She is saying she would rather face many professionals, who would be quite anxiety inducing, than a reporter. She also shows she knows she’s good at what she does. from this, it seems as if she’s also a reporter.

Patrick lived in Emoryville, but every Saturday morning he rode two city buses to his uncle’s bookstore in Northview, where he worked. He didn’t mind the commute because he loved his job. He loved spending time with his uncle, but he also loved going to work because he had become friends with Andrew, one of his co-workers. The boys would talk about everything from baseball scores to movies to favorite pizza toppings.
So this Saturday, when Patrick got to work, he and Andrew got to talking as they always did.
“Hey, Pat,” Andrew said casually.
“Hey,” said Patrick. “Did you have a good week?”
“Yeah,” he said. “Great week. My basketball team made it into the semifinals. The game is tonight. We’re playing Emoryville, our nemesis.”
Before Patrick could say another word, Andrew continued. “I don’t like Emoryville. I don’t think I could ever be friends with someone from that town. Our schools are such rivals.”
Patrick was speechless.
“Where are you from, Pat? I can’t believe I’ve never asked you that before!”
Patrick fumbled over his words. “Not too far from here,” he said before he quickly changed the subject to the new shipment of graphic novels.
Suppose Patrick's uncle enters the scene. In 3–5 sentences, explain how the additional point of view might add humor or suspense to the scene.

The increasing human population has led to the need of expanding human habitats over territories which are exclusively for animals and other living organisms.Explanation:
The increasing human population has led to the need of expanding human habitats over territories which are exclusively meant for animals and other living organisms. Every single day humans are encroaching forests, jungles, wilderness areas, etc., for commercial and other selfish purposes without thinking about other living organisms.
We should stop this activity of encroaching immediately for the sake of other living organisms as well for the mankind. Without animals, plants or forests, humans won't survive on this planet for long. Every single organism on this earth has a role to play and humans must respect their habitats.
Today, the Amazon forest in South America has drastically shrunk by about 289,000 square miles since 1978. Imagine just within a span of 50 years, we have lost so much of wilderness area due to urbanization and commercialization. If this activity keeps on going, humans would lose the whole of the Amazon forest in another 50 years.
Therefore, it is important that humans must stop our selfish activities of taking over territories not meant for us. This can be stopped by strict governmental policies, environmental education and population control.
