How does the setting affect Jonathan's outlook on his
house?
This newest miracle was his little house in Ogui Overside.
Indeed nothing puzzles God! Only two houses away a
huge concrete edifice some wealthy contractor had put up
just before the war was a mountain of rubble. And here
was Jonathan's little zinc house of no regrets built with
mud blocks quite intact! Of course the doors and
windows were missing and five sheets off the roof. But
what was that?
-"Civil Peace,"
Chinua Achebe
1. Jonathan is doubtful that his house will continue to
stand, since the surrounding area is war torn.
2. Jonathan is grateful that his house still stands,
since the surrounding area is war torn.
3. Jonathan is confused that his house still stands,
given the surrounding destruction.
4. Jonathan is guilt stricken that his house still stands,
given the destruction of the neighboring house.
The correct answer is 2. Jonathan is grateful that his house still stands,
since the surrounding area is wartorn.
Explanation:
In stories, the setting includes the place where actions take place. Additionally, this factor has a great impact on the story and even the characters. In the case of the excerpt presented, the fact Jonathan house is almost intact while a huge nearby building was destroyed makes Jonathan feels grateful, this feeling can be seen in "This newest miracle was his little house in Ogui Overside" that shows Jonathan is surprised but happy or in "But what was that?" that shows Jonathan appreciates the house was not destroyed even when there minor damages.
Answer:
B. Jonathan is grateful that his house still stands, since the surrounding area is war torn.

how would you sum up the poem The house by the side of the road by Sam Walter Foss?
Answer: There are hermit
souls that live withdrawn
In the peace of their self-content;
There are souls, like stars, that dwell apart,
In a fellowless firmament;
There are pioneer souls that blaze their paths
Where highways never ran;-
But let me live by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.
Let me live in a house
by the side of the road,
Where the race of men go by-
The men who are good and the men who are bad,
As good and as bad as I.
I would not sit in the scorner’s seat,
Or hurl the cynic’s ban;-
Let me live in a house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.

The given events are from the first chapter of the novel. While Alice and her sister were sitting on the riverbank when she saw a White Rabbit hopping along, checking its watch and hurrying along as if it was late for something. Alice follows the rabbit and fell through the rabbit hole into a huge passageway with huge halls with numerous doors. She couldn't open anyone of them and was curious to know what lies beyond those doors. Then she saw a golden key on a three-legged table made of solid glass and tried to open the doors with it. But the key wouldn't fit in the locks for they were too big for the tiny golden key.
Desperate for another way out, she discovered a small door behind a curtain. When she tried the tiny key, it fitted and opened the door but she couldn't get through because she was too big for the tiny door. Then she saw a bottle that says "Drink me" which she did, but not before carefully checking it for poison or something else.

PLEASE ANSWER THIS QUICKLY
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Miranda sat in the high school computer lab typing like mad. It was 8:30 a.m., and her 1,000-word report on The Catcher in the Rye was due at 9:00. For the past hour, she had been flipping through the ratty pages of the old paperback trying to discern the major plot points and then typing out a few sentences that she hoped were logical. The only reason she was able to get into the lab that early was because she was one of Mrs. Brody’s assistants, but a couple of hours in the lab didn’t make up for weeks of zoning out in English class.
Miranda could kick herself, but she was too busy skimming through her notes and attempting to remember something—anything!—that Mr. Giuffreda had talked about. Mr. Giuffreda was a tough grader, and Miranda did not work well under pressure—not a great combination. On top of all that, Miranda could hear her mother’s voice in her head: “One more bad grade in English, young lady, and no more soccer team.” Miranda failed to see the relationship between soccer and book reports, but she also knew her mother wasn’t kidding. When she had slacked off in geometry last semester, her mother had taken away her cell phone for a month. Another time, when Miranda had missed her curfew—again and again—she had gotten grounded for two weeks.
Still typing, Miranda thought about Mr. Giuffreda. He expected nothing but the best—and then some. He never gave extensions unless someone had a family emergency, and he had a terrible habit of brushing off even the most creative excuses. Anyway, Miranda didn’t need an extra day or two. She needed time to read the entire novel again. Miranda ran a word count—361. She checked her watch—8:45. She flipped to the end of the book trying desperately to remember the ending, but nothing was coming to her. Why hadn’t she paid attention?
At 8:55, she had a whopping, miraculous 402 words. The homeroom bell had rung five minutes ago, and students were filing into the lab for first period. Miranda’s fingers were still flying, but by 8:59, Mrs. Brody asked Miranda to leave so she could start class on time. Miranda saved her work on her USB drive, collected her pages from the printer, and slung her knapsack over her shoulder. Then she trudged down the hall to Mr. Giuffreda’s class as slowly as possible, even though she knew she would be late and would probably get detention.
10
Select the correct answer.
Based on the passage, what will Miranda’s mother probably do?
A.
find someone to tutor Miranda in English
B.
ground Miranda for the next two weeks
C.
force Miranda to quit the soccer team
D.
understand that Miranda tried her best
The correct answer is C. Force Miranda to quit the soccer team
Explanation:
The excerpt presented explains how Miranda unsuccessfully tried to complete a book report in a short time. Additionally, while she is writing the report Miranda remembers the words of her mother "One more bad grade in English, young lady, and no more soccer team"; these words suggest that if Miranda is unable to get a good grade in the paper her mother will force her to quit the soccer team.
This idea is supported by sentences such as "When she had slacked off in geometry last semester, her mother had taken away her cell phone for a month" that show the mother is strict and will for sure make Miranda quit the team. Also, because just five minutes before the class Miranda has not finished the report and she is going to get detention it is likely she will get a bad grade, and therefore her mother makes her leave the team.
