LAST ATTEMPT, and ILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST! ( Give me three positive and three negative traits about Trevor Noah’s mother explain why two paragraphs!

Answer:

Please brainliest hopefully its enough young one

Explanation:

Trevor’s devout, fearless, and independent mother. The unwanted middle child of Temperance and Frances Noah, she moves from Soweto to the Xhosa homeland in her teenage years, where she works on the family farm and starves. She then decides to train as a secretary even though black women are excluded from secretary jobs during apartheid. When she manages to get work, she secretly moves to a downtown white neighborhood of Johannesburg, where a white man named Robert rents her a room. She convinces Robert to have a child with her (Trevor) and then manages to hide him his entire childhood by keeping him inside or pretending that she is his family maid so that they can be seen together in public. She is dedicated to showing Trevor the possibilities that seem out of reach for someone of their family’s class status, not to mention race, in South Africa—she does this by encouraging to read voraciously, teaching him English as a first language, and taking him on trips. However, she is also a devoted proponent of “tough love,” beating Trevor to teach him lessons about the world’s ruthlessness toward men of color. She is a staunch believer in prayer and takes Trevor to three different churches every Sunday in their secondhand Volkswagen Beetle. During Trevor’s childhood, she manages to move to the colored suburb of Eden Park and then, after briefly living in her husband Abel’s garage in an ill-fated attempt to save his auto repair business, to the white suburb of Highlands North, where they are the only black people besides the white families’ maids. Her relationship with Abel is tumultuous: she insists on her independence, which infuriates him, and his abusiveness worsens over time until she leaves him and he attempts to murder her. Trevor dedicates Born a Crime to his mother, his “teammate” in life, because she has served as the foundation for all his accomplishments, not only by teaching him to think for himself and dream of the kinds of success usually reserved for whites during apartheid, but also by modeling that attitude and success when the odds were stacked against her.

I spoke to Trevor Noah, host of the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning program The Daily Show on Comedy Central, about his new book entitled Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood. Noah talks about what he learned from his childhood struggles, why being an immigrant has it’s pros and cons, why he doesn’t feel like he has to surpass Jon Stewart’s legacy, why millennials want the same things as older generations and his best career advice to you.

Born in South Africa to a black South African mother and a white European father, Noah has hosted numerous television shows including South Africa’s music, television and film awards, the South African Comedy Festival and two seasons of his own late night talk show, Tonight with Trevor Noah. He made his U.S. television debut in 2012 on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and has also appeared on Late Show with David Letterman, becoming the first South African stand-up comedian to appear on either late night show. Noah recently debuted his one-hour stand-up special, Trevor Noah: Lost in Translation, on Comedy Central.

Kelly is writing a research report for social studies class about the Salem witch trials. She wants to revise the introductory paragraph to include a clear
thesis statement. Read Kelly's draft introductory paragraph and answer the question that follows.

The Salem witch trials took place in 1692. Several women in a Massachusetts village were accused of witchcraft by some children: The adults did not brush these claims off as kids' make-believe stories, though. The cases against these women were heard in a special court. By the time the trials came to an end, well over 100 people had been accused of witchcraft. To most people today, it seems unbelievable that the trials ever took place, but that time people really did believe in, and fear, witches. Life was difficult for the people of Salem Village, and there was also a lot of tension among neighbors.

Which sentence would be the best thesis statement that Kelly should add to complete her introductory paragraph?

A.The key to understanding the Salem witch trials lied in understanding the time period in which they took place, including such important factors as: 1) common religious beliefs and superstitions of the era; 2) hardships in life which caused people to seek solutions and scapegoats; and 3) the rigid and highly stratified society of colonial New England in which people may have tempted to take out personal grudges against more privileged neighbors in unusual ways.

B.Today, it is still not clear whether there really were witches in Salem. We simply don't have the archeological or written evidence to say if it is true or not. However, some ghost-hunters, psychics, and mystics have explored the geographic area for "psychic vibes", and they report unusual supernatural forces.

C.The Salem witch trials show why it is important to question what kids say. Children can come up with all sorts of random and fanciful ideas. Some children even believe they have invisible companions!

D.Several centuries later, sad events like the Salem witch trials are still taking place all around the world: For example, in some parts
of the world, such as the mountain villages of Switzerland or the highlands of Scotland, pagan celebrations take place around New Year's Eve in which a straw effigy of a person is ritually burned under a full moon

Class Activity- Directions: In order to fully understand the power of the narrator, read the passage from Chapter Three below, then answer the questions that follow. Sometimes the work was hard; the implements had been designed for human beings and not for animals, and it was a great drawback that no animal was able to use any tool that involved standing on his hind legs. But the pigs were so clever that they could think of a way round every difficulty. As for the horses, they knew every inch of the field, and in fact understood the business of mowing and raking far better than Jones and his men had ever done. The pigs did not actually work but directed and supervised the others. With their superior knowledge it was natural that they should assume the leadership. Boxer and Clover would harness themselves to the cutter or the horse-rake (no bits or reins were needed in these days, of course) and tramp steadily round and round the field with a pig walking behind and calling out "Gee up, comrade!" or "Whoa back, comrade!" as the case might be. And every animal down to the humblest worked at turning the hay and gathering it. Even the ducks and hens toiled to and fro all day in the sun, carrying tiny wisps of hay in their beaks. In the end they finished the harvest in two days' less time than it had usually taken Jones and his men. Moreover, it was the biggest harvest that the farm had ever seen. There was no wastage whatever; the hens and ducks with their sharp eyes had gathered up the very last stalk. And not an animal on the farm had stolen so much as a mouthful.

The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.

We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.

By describing the land as if it were food
