Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

the answer is D

Explanation:

according to study island the answer is Usain Bolt wins 3 gold medals and sets 3 world records
Answer 2
Answer: It really depends on the person and what they think is more important - 

A: You could show that the 2008 Olympics was Michael Phelps' "last hurrah" as it were, as he did not do as well in the 2012 games, BUT the paper is on the 2008 games and not Phelps himself

B: The proof of the use of steroids could be used to make a point that perhaps the security needs to be stepped up, or that in the modern world, sport is becoming too unfair as new drugs are invented because people feel the need to cheat for the cash prizes.

C: This is not really an essay topic, but perhaps you could combine it with B as a controversial point.

D:You could use this point as proof that the bar is being raised every year, and that talent is being found everywhere, better talent, even from poorer countries that you wouldn't expect. You could also tie in Jesse Owens.

Personally, I would use B as drugs is a hot topic around the world, but it is ultimately up to Jacob.

Can you help me fix up my answer to this question and add a conclusion?Is the society of Animal Farm a classless one?
I think that Animal Farm has two social classes: government and civilian. The government, which consists of the pigs, is the upper class. They get extra milk and apples and “did not actually work” (45). Meanwhile, the civilians are all of the other animals on the farm, like the horses and birds. The horses “would harness themselves to the cutter or horse-rake” (45), and the birds “[gathered] stray grains” (47). They all "toiled and sweated... the work was hard" (45).

Explanation:

Underline #1 - Instead of saying meanwhile, you should say, whereas or on the contrary because meanwhile is saying that - in my opinion - there is something else going on, but if you use whereas it'll tell the reader you're comparing it to a different noun or in your case social class; same with on the contrary since it's telling the reader = the opposite of government which is higher up.   Do you understand?

Otherwise, every else looks good. Great job.
