While she lived, the Mexican painter Frida Kahlo was known mainly as the wife of the famed muralist Diego Rivera. Yet in the decades since her death, Kahlo has become hugely famous in her own right and is probably now better known than her husband. In 1990, Kahlo became the first Mexican artist to break the one million mark at an auction. The vivid, self-portraits that Kahlo created in the thirties and forties continue to be widely sought after by collectors willing to pay high prices for her paintings. Although Kahlo is often described as a painter intent on exploring her own personal reality, many of her paintings include references to Mexico’s political and social history.

I Am Not Good At Writing Informational essay
Read the following articles. Then write an informative essay about water inequality. Your essay should explain how water inequality affects people and environments.
More than 70 percent of Earth’s surface is covered in water, yet lack of access to clean water is one of the most pressing challenges of our time. As of 2015, 29 percent of people globally suffer from lack of access to safely managed drinking water. More than double that number are at risk for water contamination from improper wastewater management. Poor water quality affects various aspects of society, from the spread of disease to crop growth to infant mortality. In some regions of the world, lack of sanitation infrastructure, water treatment facilities, or sanitary latrines lead to dire clean water crises.
In several countries around the world, a major contributor to water contamination is open defecation—the practice of using fields, forests, lakes, rivers, or other natural, open areas to deposit feces. Almost one billion people worldwide still practice open defecation rather than using a toilet. It is particularly common in South Asian countries like India and Nepal, where it is practiced by about 32 percent of people in the region. A landlocked country in the Himalayas, Nepal has access to clean water from mountain rivers, but over 20 percent of the population lives below the poverty line. In a disturbing study, 75 percent of drinking water samples from schools in Nepal were contaminated with fecal bacteria. While open defecation is most common in rural communities, it still occurs in areas with sanitation access, indicating a need for awareness campaigns to teach the dangers of the practice. Moreover, pollution from open defecation is further complicated by contamination from natural disasters such as recurring floods.In sub-Saharan Africa, the proportion of the population practicing open defecation is slightly smaller—around 23 percent—but 40 percent of the population lacks safe drinking water. Moreover, the gender inequality in this region is more prominent than in South Asia. In sub-Saharan Africa, more than 25 percent of the population must walk 30 minutes or more to collect water, a burden that falls on women and girls the vast majority of the time. This trend of women tasked with the responsibility of water collection spans many developing nations and takes critical quality time away from income generation, child care, and household chores. Moreover, Africa has a high risk for desertification, which will reduce the availability of fresh water even further, and increase the threat of water inequality in the future.
Answer: Ionic bonds are formed through the exchange of valence electrons between atoms, typically a metal and a nonmetal. The loss or gain of valence electrons allows ions to obey the octet rule and become more stable. Ionic compounds are typically neutral. Therefore, ions combine in ways that neutralize their charges.

What inference can you make from this passage? What explicit and implicit details support
your inference?
Answer:
From the passage, I can infer that:
The desert cities with increasing population experience drought due to low rainfall which causes problem to the populace.
Explicit detail from the passage: "The most obvious issue is the lack of water."
Implicit detail from the passage: "This population boom is hard on the desert environments of these cities."
Explanation:
An explicit detail gives a very clear and well understood detail. It is umabiguious and without vagueness. While an implicit detail does not give a very clear and direct detail. It is usually implied or assumed.
From the passage, we can see that lack of water is found in deserts. The detail is explicit and with facts.
But saying that the population boom is hard on the desert environments seem implied or the author's assumption.

Advice to the newly married lady by Samuel j. Kennings, 1808
Question 1- What is the author's purpose for writing this text?-
A. To compare the life of a woman to that of a man
B. To describe the perfect marriage and provide instructive examples
C. To persuade women it is in their best to have a happy marriage
D. To list the duties of a wife so that men know what to expect from a marriage
What is the answer? ...... please help
Answer:
The author's purpose for writing this text is:
C. To persuade women it is in their best interest to have a happy marriage.
Explanation:
Samuel K. Jennings was president of Asbury College, a medical doctor, and a Methodist preacher. In "Advice to the Newly Married Lady," his purpose is to persuade women to make an effort to maintain a happy marriage since, according to him, it is in their best interest.
Jennings defends the claim that, if the marriage is ruined for some reason, men will find ways to deal with it - friends, gatherings, games, drinks, and so on. Women, however, cannot do the same thing (let's keep in mind the text was written in the 19th century). All they will have left is sadness and tears. Therefore, they should try their best to make things work:
But your house is your only refuge, your husband your only companion. Should he abandon you, solitude, anxiety, and tears, must be your unhappy lot.
what does the term "shift-sleeping" mean?
Answer:
Shift work sleep disorder (SWSD) occurs in individuals who work nontraditional hours like split shift, graveyard shifts, early morning shifts, or rotating shifts. It's characterized by excessive sleepiness, lack of refreshing sleep, and drowsiness. These symptoms can affect both work and leisure time. Both symptoms are predominant in SWSD. There are numerous shift work schedules, and they may be permanent, intermittent, or rotating; consequently, the manifestations of SWSD are quite variable. Shift working can disrupt what are known as circadian rhythms, the internal "body clock". This can disrupt the normal workings of a hormone called melatonin. This disruption can lead to poor sleep and chronic fatigue.

PART A: What does the word “exploit” most closely mean as it is used in paragraph 4? A. to produce B. to abuse C. to benefit from D. to criticize or disagree with 4. PART B: Which phrase from paragraph 4 best supports the answer to Part A? A. “the disgusting news from Drake” B. “crowing about all the books we will sell because of the news” C. “to damage my reputation in the eyes of their children and then in the eyes of the world” D. “the courage and ordinary decency”
Answer:
Part A: C. to benefit from
Part B: B. “crowing about all the books we will sell because of the news”
Explanation
This question refers to a letter Kurt Vonnegut, the author of "Slaughterhouse-Five", wrote to Charles McCarthy, the head of the school board, after McCarthy decided to burn all the copies of his book from school library.
Besides explaining why such an action is wrong, and the potential consequences it might have on freedom of speech, Vonnegut states that he has done "absolutely nothing to exploit the disgusting news".
That means that he hasn't done any actions to make a profit from the publicity this news might have. He states that he hasn't informed any of the media.
Also he says that he and his publisher are not "clapping each other on the back, crowing about all the books we will sell because of the news".
All of that suggests that he is writing this letter out of concern for impact it might have on the American culture and freedom of speech, rather then using it as a chance to make a profit out of the situation.

When you come across unfamiliar words in a story, you can discover what they mean by
looking for context clues.
Look at the following table for some words from " The Most Dangerous Game "that may
be unfamiliar to you. Refer back to the story to find these words and see if you can
determine their meanings from the context clues. The words are listed in the table in the
order that they appear in the story. Fill out the column labeled Contextual Meaning with
what you think the meaning is. Then look up these words in the dictionary and fill out the
column labeled Dictionary Definition. Finally, explain what clues you used in the story to
come up with the contextual meaning of each word. Write your explanations in the
comments column.
Answer:
zealous means having and or showing zeal
Explanation:
dank unpleasant; dark unpleasantly moist From the context, I understood that the night is unpleasant to some extent. It is a “tropical night,” which explains why it is moist or humid.
palpable intensely felt evident; readily seen Because the night is described as a “dank, palpable night that presses its warm blanket against the yacht,” I thought palpable meant “hot,” but when I checked the dictionary definition, I realized it could contextually mean “intensely felt.”
doggedly determinedly with persistence Because I read that “Rainsford swam doggedly,” I realized he did it with determination.
ardent enthusiastic passionate When I read that Zaroff’s father was an ardent sportsman, I realized that it meant he was enthusiastic.
scruples principles morals, principles Zaroff says that Rainsford’s scruples are ill-founded when he calls Zaroff a murderer, which is why I thought that scruples meant principles.
ennui feeling tired boredom When Zaroff gets bored of hunting, he says he is afflicted by ennui. So I figured this word meant being tired of or bored of something.
zealous passionate extremely passionate or enthusiastic When I read that Zaroff is a zealous hunter, I guessed that the word meant passionate because so much of the story is about his love of hunting.
uncanny strange mysterious The general could follow Rainsford’s trail even at night, which made me think uncanny meant “strange” or “supernatural.”
mocking making fun of ridiculing; contemptuous The trap Rainsford sets for the general is not successful, which makes the general mock him, so I assumed it meant “to make fun of.”
placid relaxed calm; pleasant Since placid was used to describe a pastime, I assumed it meant “relaxed and easygoing.”
