PLEASE HELP FAST!!!!! I NEED AN ANSWER ASAP!!!!!!! Read the prompt on p. 145 regarding the impact of digital technology on human intelligence. Then, read the paragraph at the bottom of p. 163 that discusses the effects of digital technology and uses Mark Bauerlein as a source. Rewrite this paragraph so that it makes more effective use of the source. p. 145- To set themselves apart, columnists for print and online publications establish a viewpoint and style. The types of sources they use and the way they use them are part of that style. Using three columns by one writer, analyze the columnist's audience by examining the type of sources he or she uses. You might consider a political commentator, a sportswriter, a movie or music reviewer, or a columnist in a local publication. p.163- Below you will find a paragraph written using Mark Bauerlein as a source. Read the paragraph, and then rewrite it so that it makes more effective use of the source. Mark Bauerlein believes that the so-called Digital Revolution could jeopardize the "cultural and civic inheritance" that has made the United States a powerful democracy. He argues that teens and young adults "have grown up with more knowledge and information readily at hand, taken more classes, built their own Web sites, enjoyed more libraries, bookstores, and museums in their towns and cities," yet they are shallow thinkers who are more concerned about themselves than their society. They have a different social life and a different mental life as a result of their use of what he calls "digital tools." "Instead of opening young American minds to the stores of civilization and science and politics, technology has contracted their horizon to themselves, to the social scene around them." He is concerned that the consequences are more serious than just a generation of spoiled brats. He thinks this rising generation is camped in the desert of ignorance and instant gratification. "They have all the advantages of modernity and democracy, but when the gifts of life lead to social joys, not intellectual labor, the minds of the young plateau at age 18."

PLEASE HELP FAST!!!!!Which evidence best supports the idea that hip-hop delivers an important universal message? Check all that apply.Earlier that night, somebody tossed a record on the turntable, which sent my fellow students stumbling onto the dance floor, howling with delight.I high-stepped away from that music for 26 years because it was everything I thought it was, and more than I ever dreamed it would be.In China, teens spray-paint graffiti on the Great Wall. In France it has been blamed, unfairly, for the worst civil unrest that country has seen in decades.It is a music that defies definition, yet defines our collective societies in immeasurable ways.To many of my generation, despite all attempts to exploit it, belittle it, numb it, classify it, and analyze it, hip hop remains an enigma, a clarion call, a cry of I am from the youth of the world.

1. Based on the constitutional clause identified in part A, explain why the facts of Gonzales v. Raich led to a different holding from the holding in United States v. Lopez.My answer was In Gonzales v. Raich, the decision was that the government could have the authority to prohibit the use and possession of marijuana. While in United States v. Lopez, it was decided that the Gun-free School Zones Act of 1990 was struck down by SCOTUS (The Supreme Court of the United States) who ruled that the act fell outside the authority of the commerce clause, as it would be very unlikely of an individual who committed a crime with a gun in a school zone to go to another state. The SCOTUS ruled that the Commerce Clause authority includes the power to prohibit the local cultivation and use of marijuana, despite state law to the contrary, because marijuana could be taken outside of California and to another state, meaning that it is part of interstate commerce. Is this incorrect? Is it mandatory to bring up the economic effect? I thought it can have many different answers.
