Palo Duro
Some places simply warrant more attention. One of the most illustrious sites in the world is known by very few except regular adventure-goers. Travelers are awed by Palo Duro Canyon as its deep, red landscape appears seemingly out of nowhere. The canyon, similar in length to the Grand Canyon in Arizona, has scenic views just as glorious as those of the more famous canyon. At night, coyotes can be heard in the distance as the high winds gust through the valley, echoing the howls off the steep canyon walls. During the day, the hateful sun heats up every visible crevice, contrasting the cool, breezy nights. The favorable aspect of the day is its gift of sight, of the stunning erosion that has taken place over millions of years, or of the rocks impossibly balanced on one another and their relentless determination to remain unmoved. This place and its striking diversity deserve recognition for doing exactly what nature does best: providing wonder to all.
What does the photograph show that the passage does not describe
Answers
Answer:
The vegetation consisting of shrubs and trees.
Explanation:
The photograph attached to this description of the Canyon contains depictions of green hardwood shrubs that form part of the biological diversity in this site. The name of the site itself is a Spanish word that means "hardwood". This refers to the shrubs and trees that can be found here. It is believed that this Canyon was first discovered by Europeans that engaged in the Coronado expedition.
So, given the picture, every other feature of the Canyon was described except for its vegetation.

From deep within the shadows, strong hands seized Zafarin, dragging him roughly into the alleyway. A muscular arm wound itself around his waist while a firm hand locked over his mouth.
"Calm down, Zaf!" a voice hissed in his ear. "It's me."
Instantly, Zafarin relaxed and was released."What are you doing, Dane?"
"Aren't you happy to see your brother?"
"Not when he frightens me to death," Zafarin huffed.
"Shush!" Dane glanced over his shoulder."Come with me. I'll explain later."
Intrigued, Zafarin followed his brother through the maze of murky cobblestone laneways that ran through the city. Dane stopped outside a tumbledown house. He glanced around to make sure they were alone, then ushered Zafarin inside.
"What is this place?" Zafarin whispered."A safe house. Come."

Answer:
Explanation:
Honesty encompasses a certain number of values which may include being open on cases, being truthful when giving verdict, being trustworthy when placed in charge or control of a venture, Honesty also covers keeping to one's words, hence an honest person could be said to exhibit probity and many other virtues of goodness.
However, to exhibit these virtues in such a tempting environment where honesty seems to be impracticable quality due to growing societal decay, immorality and regular injustice upholding these virtues requires a strong zeal and desire to stand with the truth nearing in mind that it will ultimately prevail.

A. The company has a clear lunch policy.

Explanation:Skimming is the process of reading a text rapidly to gain an overview of the text. To do so, read the title, the table of contents, and the headings for an overview of ideas. Glancing at any pictures, diagrams or charts, reading the entire introduction and the topic sentences of each paragraph also helps.
The first title has "Lunch Policy" in it, so that's why A is right. The second page has a title called "Considerations", so E is right. The other answers are wrong because those are information you'd find if you read the whole pages, not skimming them.

“The crash had left Louie and Phil in the most desperate physical extremity, without food, water, or shelter. But on Kwajalein, the guards sought to deprive them of something that had sustained them even as all else had been lost: dignity. This self-respect and sense of self-worth, the innermost armament of the soul, lies at the heart of humanness.”
Explanation:
This quotation is found in Chapter 18, the first chapter of Part Four. Louie and Phil are being held in cells on Kwajalein, a few days after they had been captured at sea. Their minds and bodies have survived a record 47 days lost at sea, but their suffering is not over. In fact, it has entered a new chapter. In this new part of the book, their physical difficulties have been compounded. Now Japanese guards begin to abuse them, initiating an intentional process of trying to break Louie and Phil. This process will continue long after Kwajalein, as Louie is moved from one POW camp to the next. At this point it is new to him.

Answer and Explanation:
"The Lost Child" is a short story, which even in a few words, has the power to bring an impactful message and highlight the presence of people who often go unnoticed in our lives, but are essential for our well-being. These people are our parents.
"The Lost Child" introduces us to a child who lost his parents while walking in a fair. At this moment, the child is desperate not to find the parents and at this moment that this child becomes aware of the importance of the presence of his father and mother in his life. The boy's awareness is also our awareness, since the presence of our parents may go unnoticed by us, but their absence is shocking and desperate.
This feeling of despair is maintained until the end of the story, as the reader does not know if the boy managed to be reunited with his parents. This is also a moment when the reader can identify, since the loss of parents may or may not be definitive.

According to Hesiod’s Theogony, in the beginning, there was only Chaos. Dense darkness covered everything until the Earth was born out of Chaos and the mountains, the sea, and then the sky (Uranus) with the sun, the moon and the stars. Then Uranus and Earth came together and gave birth to the Titans. But, Uranus was afraid that one of his children would take his throne. That is why he enclosed every one of them in the depths of the Earth. But his son, Cronus, the strongest of the Titans, defeated him and became world leader. He married Rhea, who gave birth to two gods and three goddesses: Hades, Poseidon, Hera, Hestia and Demeter.

Answers
Answer: A. after "coat"
Explanation:
A thesaurus lists words in alphabetical order which is why the word "coax" would come after the word, "coat" because the last letter "x" in coax comes after the last letter "t" in coat.
B is incorrect because the "x" in coax comes after the "s" in coast so coax would come after coast not before. C is incorrect because blue begins with b and will definitely come after coax which starts with c.
Finally D is incorrect as well because the "a" in coax comes before the "i" in coin in the alphabet so coax will come before coin not after.

He Had His Dream
by Paul Laurence Dunbar
He had his dream, and all through life,
Worked up to it through toil and strife.
Afloat fore’er before his eyes,
It colored for him all his skies:
The storm–cloud dark
Above his bark,
The calm and listless vault of blue
Took on its hopeful hue,
It tinctured every passing beam—
He had his dream.
He labored hard and failed at last,
His sails too weak to bear the blast,
The raging tempests tore away
And sent his beating bark astray.
But what cared he
For wind or sea!
He said, “The tempest will be short,
My bark will come to port.”
He saw through every cloud a gleam—
He had his dream.

Read these central ideas from "Homer: The Poet for All Ages." Some people question whether Homer really existed. People have different ideas about who Homer was.
Answers
Hi. Your question is incomplete and this makes it difficult for me to answer it. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question just like yours. This question asked you to show which two central ideas of "Homer. The Poet for All Ages" support popular belief about Homer. If that's the case for you, I hope the answer below will help you.
The central ideas that show popular beliefs about Homer, presented in the text, can be seen in the two excerpts below:
"One legend says that long ago in Greece, a blind poet, Homer, wandered from city to city and earned his living by reciting poems." "Some people believe that such a poet really lived, and that he composed the Iliad and the Odyssey himself and recited them in the cities where he stayed.""Homer. The Poet for All Ages" introduces the poet Homer and his incredible ability to compose stories and poems in a millennium epoch. Homer is highly recognized and admired even today, but his life is a mystery, many people believe he didn't even exist, but many people believe not only that he was real, but that he was the author of "Iliad " and "Odyssey." This belief is strengthened through the legend that there was a Greek poet, who although blind, had a great ability to compose stories and made a living telling these stories and reciting poems.

The twins represented the two ways of the world which are in all people. The Indians did not call these good and evil. They called them the straight mind and the crooked mind, the righteous man and the devious man, the right and the left.
The main purpose of this excerpt is to
