The root word climate refers to weather conditions over a long period. Climatic is based on the word climate. What does the suffix -ic in climatic mean? The Extinction of Dinosaurs
We all know that at one time dinosaurs roamed the surface of Earth. But it’s been 65 million years since they died out. They thrived on the planet for many years, along with a vast number of other organisms and animals. How did the dinosaurs go extinct? Scientists formed many theories about what caused this obliteration. They included climate change, continental shifts, and volcanoes.

Eventually, one theory began to suggest that the cause of the dinosaurs' extinction was the crash of an asteroid on Earth's surface. It was a huge asteroid (about 10 kilometers in width) that crashed against Earth. Its crash made a gigantic crater in Mexico. The crash caused total climatic shifts and changes in the temperature of the atmosphere. The crash also produced a great gas cloud around Earth that resulted in total darkness. It was this explosion that might have led to the complete extinction of the dinosaurs from the face of Earth.

A.
made of something
B.
something related to
C.
person connected with
D.
the state of being

In this excerpt from "a modest proposal" by jonathan swift, which important issue does the writer deal with using a satirical tone? some persons of a desponding spirit are in great concern about that vast number of poor people, who are aged, diseased, or maimed; and i have been desired to employ my thoughts what course may be taken, to ease the nation of so grievous an incumbrance. but i am not in the least pain upon that matter, because it is very well known, that they are every day dying, and rotting, by cold and famine, and filth, and vermin, as fast as can be reasonably expected. and as to the young labourers, they are now in almost as hopeful a condition. they cannot get work, and consequently pine away from want of nourishment, to a degree, that if at any time they are accidentally hired to common labour, they have not strength to perform it, and thus the country and themselves are happily delivered from the evils to come. a. old, sickly people cannot be hired as laborers because they don't have the physical stamina required for the job. b. old, sickly people and young laborers are useless to the nation because they cannot be productive citizens. c. the economy of the nation is burdened by the poor, the old, and the sickly who survive on charity and handouts. d. the living conditions of the poor and their lack of employment opportunities are serious concerns for the nation. reset next

One element of lyric poetry is personal reflection. which lines in this poem most clearly illustrate that element? i wandered lonely as a cloudby william wordsworthi wandered lonely as a cloudthat floats on high o'er vales and hills, when all at once i saw a crowd, a host, of golden daffodils; beside the lake, beneath the trees, fluttering and dancing in the breeze. continuous as the stars that shineand twinkle on the milky way. they stretched in never-ending linealong the margin of a bay: ten thousand saw i at a glance, tossing their heads in sprightly dance. the waves beside them danced; but theyout-did the sparkling waves in glee: a poet could not but be gay. in such a jocund company: i gazed and gazed—but little thoughtwhat wealth the show to me had brought: for oft, when on my couch i liein vacant or in pensive mood, they flash upon that inward eyewhich is the bliss of solitude; and then my heart with pleasure fills, and dances with the daffodils.
