alright ima give yall the written answers <3
9. Scrooge is a cartoon character that's personality is being cold-hearted or a miser. Although if someone doesn't know this they might think differently about what Miranda said.
10. A tire is a small part of a bicycle, and a window is a small part of a house. The tire of a bicycle is like the window to a house.
11. The word "remarkable" from the passage has a denotative meaning of "unusual, notable, or worthy of attention." Its connotation in this context is positive, meaning that the Mississippi River is noteworthy and exceptional.
12. Figurative language is used in writing by authors because readers will stop to understand a simile or something like "the wind whispered in my ear" to try to comprehend it.
13. Two stylistic devices that the author used to make the poem more interesting are parallelism and consonance. For example in the 7th line, parallelism was used to show grammatical agreement. In that same line, consonance could be seen in the repetition of the letter 's.'

The snow drifts into hills of white.
The imprints of his lonely plight
Lie deep beneath the fallen snow,
Lost to all but those who know
The truths that spurred this venture forth
From warmer pasts to its present course,
The words, the deeds, the thoughts untold—
The love that lost to a heart too bold.
Reflecting hues of the starless night,
The snow drifts into hills of white.

Changes in technology influence what you learn at school and how you learn it. Changes in technology shape the ways in which you interact with your friends and family. Changes in technology even affect the words you use!
Which context clues might best help a reader understand what the word "influence" means?
"changes" and "use"
"It took Sam weeks to tolerate the frigid cold of a North Dakota winter. He eventually acclimated and began to need fewer layers of clothing to bear the windchill."

Happy is still correct for me though
ye
So some people might get a question: canvas: artist: clay: potter, the answer is: An artist needs a canvas just like a potter needs his clay.
The two stylistic devices that the poet uses are imagery and repetition. Imagery can be seen in words like "snow," "white," "starless night," which create an imaginative image and appeal to the reader's senses. The repetition of certain words, such as "snow," "hills of white," and "love," helps in emphasizing the poet's message and meaning. Additionally, the use of repetition builds on the poem's structure and gives way to its overall rhythm.

How plants are made
Plants are made through a process called photosynthesis. In this process, plants absorb energy from sunlight through their leaves, and use this energy to combine carbon dioxide and water to make glucose, a sugar that the plant can use for food. During photosynthesis, oxygen is also produced and released back into the atmosphere, which is essential for respiration in animals, including humans. Through this process, plants create their own food, which allows them to grow and reproduce.
