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souls that live withdrawn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.

1. What is the main idea in High Incomes Don't Bring You Happiness"||
Answer:
The main idea that the author Caitlin Kenney seems to address in this essay seems to be that even though money has no direct relationship with the level of happiness of a person, it has some influence, to a certain extent, of making the person believe that her life is much better than that of the ones poorer than her.
Explanation:
In the study of how incomes have any impact on the overall happiness of a person, Caitlin Kenney's "High Incomes Don't Bring You Happiness" delves into what it is that makes money an important factor of our lives and do they have any connection with how people feel about their lives.
Starting the essay with the question "How much do you think it would take to make you happy?" the author implores into the issue of how high-income groups seem to be relatively happier than the ones in the lower-income groups. Referencing to the study by psychologist Daniel Kahneman and economist Angus Deaton, the study further reveals how certain amounts of income seem to have a lighter effect on people. But overall, even though money has no direct connection with how happy a person is, there is still some effect it has, like influencing people to believe that the life they live is much better than the ones lived by the poorer people.
Answer:
The main idea of the text is that money does not play an important role in the emotional well-being of people.
Explanation:
"High Incomes Don't Bring You Happiness" is an article written by Caitlin Kenney. The article is based on the answers of psychologist Daniel Kahneman and economist Angus Deaton, who provides an insight on how much money or high salary plays a role in making a person happy.
According to the study, researchers have found that people's emotional well-being actually decreases when a person begins to earn more than $75,000 per annum. The researchers says that it is important to have a balance between emotional well-being and life evaluation, but when a person's income is equal or above $75,000 per annum, than their emotional well-being decreases. So, to be happy money is not a vital part but how we define happiness.
So, the correct answer would be that money does not play a major role in emotional well-being of people.

In Amy Tan's short story "Rules of the Game," Waverly's mother points out Waverly to strangers every chance she gets because she is proud of her; Waverly, on the other hand, is embarrassed by this. What does this conflict have to do with differences between American and Chinese culture?
Answer:
Waverly "Meimei" Jong believes and adapts to the adopted American way of life while her mother still believes in their traditional Chinese culture and its customs. And it was this conflict of belief that led to the conflict between the mother-daughter duo.
Explanation:
In Rules of the Game, Amy Tan wrote about how Waverly "Meimei" Jong who is a Chinese descent growing up in America. The whole story deals with how her approach of life the American way is in direct contrast with how her mother feels, who believes that she needs to be taught according to the Chinese way.
After Meimei became famous for her chess wins, her mother also began showing her off every chance she could. Towards the end of the story, the marketplace scene where her mother again showed her off aggravated Meimei so much that she objected heavily and ran away from her mother. Her comment "Why do you have to use me to show off? If you want to show off, then why don't you learn to play chess?" hurt her mother so much that she later told her family "We not concerning this girl. This girl not have concerning for us."
In truth, Meimei is already adapting to the American way of life and does not like the way her mother led her through with their traditional Chinese customs. Parents being proud of their children and the need to show off just so that she will be famous and be known is what her mother believes is right, while Meimei did not like it. This conflict in the mother-daughter way of approaching life led to the outburst in the marketplace, with the Mother believing in the Chinese culture and trying hard to impart it to her daughter while the other is already imbibing her adopted American culture into her own system.

Read the excerpt from Does My Head Look Big in This? by Randa Abdel-Fattah.
I froze. The priest would declare me a heretic, my parents would call me a traitor, and Mrs. Piogarni would give me detention. I had no idea what to say. I mean, what does a Muslim confess to a priest? I could only think of one thing. That every time Chris Barkley called me a darkie, or teased me about my mom's towel-head, I made a silent prayer asking God to drop a tree on his stupid head.
The priest asked me again: "What is your confession, my child?"
"I’m Muslim," I whispered.
"Five Hail Marys and five of the Lord’s Prayer.”
That was my first and last participation in a church service.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
In the story, the narrator states "I had no idea what to say. I mean, what does a Muslim confess to a priest?".
Additionally, the narrator states "I froze". The narrator worries about what other people will think about them. They think that their parents will call them a traitor, or their teacher will give them a detention.
The narrator is scared and worried, because they are confessing they are Muslim to a Catholic priest. They are frightened about the outcomes of this action.
She is not confused, and the story does not mention the Lord's Prayer. She is terrified, but not from shame from her thoughts. She is also not annoyed.
Therefore, the best choice is A: The narrator is frightened because she is a Muslim making a Catholic confession.
Answer:
A is the most logical answer
Explanation:
I'm taking the final rn and i put A as well

Excerpt from "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T.S. Eliot
"And I have known the arms already, known them all — Arms that are braceleted and white and bare (But in the lamplight, downed with light brown hair!) Is it perfume from a dress That makes me so digress? Arms that lies along a table, or wrap about a shawl. And should I then presume? And how should I begin? . . .
Shall I say, I have gone at dusk through narrow streets And watched the smoke that rises from the pipes Of lonely men in shirt-sleeves, leaning out of windows?
I should have been a pair or ragged claws Scuttling across the floors of silent seas."
Answer:
I should have been a pair of ragged claws scuttling across the floors of silent seas

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.

In the early 300s CE, Emperor Constantine converted to Christianity. Conforming to the above guidelines, write a minimum 500-word essay in which you discuss the impact this event had on the history of the world.
Answer:
Constantine was the first and only ruler to stick to the Christian religion. He released an edict defending Christians in the kingdom and converting them to Catholicism on his death's doorstep in 337.
It is feasible (but not certain) that somehow Constantine 's mother, Helena, had directly exposed him towards Christianity; in any scenario, he had only proclaimed oneself a Christian after authorising the edict of nantes. Trying to write to the Christians, Constantine made it very clear that he assumed that he alone obliged to pay his achievements to the safety of the supreme deity.
Some of the alleged watersheds of civilization is the 'conversion' of Emperor Constantine to Christianity in or around AD 312. Historians were shocked at this notion. Historically, the emperors were aggressive or disrespectful to Christians. There are two records of the transition of Constantine to catholicism. The first one is Lactantius, a mentor to Constantine 's friend, and a strong authority. They states that in Gaul, before they set off to Rome, Constantine as well as his troops saw a huge cross in the atmosphere.

What is the value of x?
The correct answer is A. 36°
Explanation.
All triangles have three internal angles. Additionally, in these, if you add the three internal angles the total is always 180°. This implies the first angle which is 79° added to the second angle, which is 65° and the third angle (value of x) should be equal to 180°. This can be solved by subtracting the two angles known from the total 180°.
x + 79° + 65° = 180
x = 180 -79°- 65°
x = 36°
Also, you can know this result is accurate because 36° + 79° + 65° = 180°
