Arush took baby steps to school. He was returning after a month of staying at the hospital, and he had strangely missed everyone—even the sternest of teachers. For Arush, anything was more fun than those white walls and the hard bed at the hospital. He was torn between the feelings of excitement and anxiety. On one hand, Arush was all better now; on the other hand, he had gained a lot of weight because of a long bed rest. He felt like an expansive balloon held to the ground by two fragile strands of threads. The doctors had told him he would be back in shape after exercising and eating better, but he was worried about how his friends would look at him. He had taken half an hour for a 10-minute walk because of his hesitation. Finally, he had arrived. There was no going back. He had seen the crowd. Arush saw the banner, the balloons, and the party hats. His friends had prepared for a celebration to mark his return. The crowd swarmed at him with the speed of bees whose hive had been stoned. They took turns asking him how he felt and saying that he was missed terribly. Nobody mentioned his weight gain or looked at him differently. His friends were genuinely happy to have him back. Gradually, Arush felt comfortable in his own skin. His feet felt more firmly on the ground. The negative ideas he had about himself shattered like pieces of broken glass. His mind was now a mirror that reflected things more clearly. He was indeed back. The author uses the phrase "shattered like pieces of broken glass" to show that A: Arush feels that he misses the stern teachers. B: the negative ideas have lost their grip on Arush. C: Arush understands the eagerness of the crowd. D: what Arush is thinking hurts his friends' feelings.

"foot."
O B. Synonyms of diminutive include tiny, miniscule, and mini.

Therefore, A is the correct choice as it describes how the word "pedometer" came to be, originating from the Latin word meaning foot. Etymology is not the synonyms, definition, or pronunciation of a word and thus you can rule out B, C, and D.
Overall, either by ruling out choices or by the definition of etymology, A is the correct answer.

Read the following excerpt from "Everyday Use" by Alice Walker: "The truth is," I said, "I promised to give them quilts to Maggie, for when she marries John Thomas." She gasped like a bee had stung her. "Maggie can't appreciate these quilts!" she said. "She'd probably be backward enough to put them to everyday use." "I reckon she would," I said. "God knows I been saving 'em for long enough with nobody using 'em. I hope she will!" I didn't want to bring up how I had offered Dee (Wangero) a quilt when she went away to college. Then she had told they were old-fashioned, out of style. Based on this excerpt, which description most likely describes the significance of the story's title?
Answer:
A. People connect with their culture by continually revisiting past traditions.
Explanation:
Alice Walker's Everyday Use revolves around the lives of the three women, mother-daughters, and their perception about what constitutes heritage, tradition, culture, and one's identity. Mama and Maggie may life in a dilapidated house but their sense of identity to their roots remains unbroken whereas the 'better educated' daughter Dee "Wangero" is more of a 'westernized' approach to her identity.
In the given passage, Dee hates the fact that her desired quilts were given to her sister Maggie who will only "put them to everyday use" whereas her own plan was to put them up like some souvenir and put in on display and not use it. The narrator Mama recollects the time when she had offered those same quilts to her when she first went to college but she had called them "old-fashioned, out of style" and refused to take them. And now that she's had a place of her own, she wanted to 'show-off' her heritage and tradition and use it as a way to 'decorate' her house. So, judging by the way the author decided to portray the characters to their relationship with the quilt, the book's title Everyday Use seemed likely to signify how people connect and feel connected with their culture through the frequent revisiting of past traditions.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
Answer:
A. People connect with their culture by continually revisiting past traditions.

I was not afraid of the dark; but I didn't like being out in the dark, either.
I had gone for a long run during the day, my legs; however, were not tired.
No one showed up for the after school program still; we had a good time.
The park was closed; therefore, we decided to play soccer in my backyard instead.
Answer:
The correct answer is - The park was closed; therefore, we decided to play soccer in my backyard instead.
Explanation:
Let’s go through the process of elimination to get to the correct option.
A) Is not correct because the conjunction BUT requires a comma, not a semicolon.
B) Is not correct because the semicolon here doesn’t make sense because of the order of words in the sentence. If the sentence said: I had gone for a long run during the day; however, my legs were not tired - then the semicolon would be correct.
C) Is not correct because the semicolon should come before the word STILL, not after it.
D) Is the correct answer as the semicolon is properly used to separate two independent sentences.

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.

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.

"He went at once to the dining room, the nine windows of which open upon a tasteful garden, where the trees were already gilded with an autumn coloring; and took his place at the usual table, the cover of which had already been laid for him."
- This is a personal experience from a teacher: "I started University and then got married and had 3 kids before I graduated with my teaching degree. While I was pregnant with my second child, in my second year of school and working part time, I was explaining my frustrations to my mom about completing my degree. She responded with "nobody pays you for a half a degree and 2 years are going to come and go anyway, you'll either have your degree or not."
How does this advice relate to getting education, training or degree?
Answer:
It basically says that without education or a degree you won't be able to find a job and become successful. It doesn't matter how difficult it might be because the outcome will be worth it.
