Answer:Alice is reasonable, well-trained, and polite. From the start, she is a miniature, middle-class Victorian "lady." Considered in this way, she is the perfect foil, or counterpoint, or contrast, for all the unsocial, bad-mannered eccentrics whom she meets in Wonderland. Alice's constant resource and strength is her courage. Time and again, her dignity, her directness, her conscientiousness, and her art of conversation all fail her. But when the chips are down, Alice reveals something to the Queen of Hearts — that is: spunk! Indeed, Alice has all the Victorian virtues, including a quaint capacity for rationalization; yet it is Alice's common sense that makes the quarrelsome Wonderland creatures seem awkward in spite of what they consider to be their "adult" identities.

Read this opening paragraph from "An Indian Father's Plea" by Medicine Grizzlybear Lake: Dear teacher, I would like to introduce you to my son, WindWolf. He is probably what you would consider a typical Indian kid. He was born and raised on the reservation. He has black hair, dark brown eyes, and an olive complexion. And like so many Indian children his age, he is shy and quiet in the classroom. He is five years old, in kindergarten, and I can't understand why you have already labeled him a "slow learner." Which statement best explains why the author begins his letter with this passage?
A. The author begins the letter in this way to describe his son's
physical appearance.
B. The author begins the letter in this way to let the teacher know
that he is upset with her behavior.
C. The author begins the letter in this way to show that he
understands the teacher's perspective.
D. The author begins the letter in this way to explain why his son is
unhappy in the school.
Answer:
C. The author begins the letter in this way to show that he
understands the teacher's perspective.
Explanation:
The father starts the letter by letting his child's teacher know that he understands him from his perspective.
He wants the teacher to understand that his son may be a recluse and shy but that does not mean that he is a slow learner, rather it is a cultural thing.
He tries to explain that an Indian child has a different culture and perspective so he may be misunderstood by others as shy but when in reality they are really thoughtful.

Excerpt from Crisis No. 1 Thomas Paine These are the times that try men’s souls: The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it NOW, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph...Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but ‘to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER,’ and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth. Even the expression is impious, for so unlimited a power can belong only to GOD. The author's purpose in writing this passage is
Answers
Answer:
The purpose of author to write this passage was to awaken the patriotism in the heart of his audience.
Explanation:
'The Crisis, Number 1' is a commentary written by Thomas Paine in 1776. The commentary was read before his audience on December 23, 2020. The purpose of writing the commentary was to inculcate the heart of patriotism and to encourage Americans to fight against British tyranny.
In his commentary, he outlined several obstacles that they had and he also desired to unite the colonies for the fight against British tyranny.
In this excerpt, Thomas is stating the difference between a summer soldier and a true patriot. A summer soldier is assigned only for a period but a true soldier fights even in the harshest winter. The essay is considered as one of the most apt persuasive essay, as Paine has vividly tried to persuade his audience.
Circle the correct option in each sentence below. a) I am looking forward to finding a/ the new job. B) I wanted a/ an apple , but there was only a banana available.
Answers
Answer:
I am looking forward to finding a new job
I wanted an apple, but there was only a banana available.
Explanation:
First we have:
a) I am looking forward to finding a/the new job
We need to choose between "a" or "the", in english when we say "a" we are not talking about an specific item, whereas when we say "the" we are talking about a specific one. ("Bring me a book" would mean that I am asking you to bring me any book, while "Bring me the book" would mean that I am asking you to bring me a specific book, probably one that we have been talking about or is special for some reason)
In this example, the person doesn't have a job so he/she is most likely looking forward to find ANY job. Thus, the correct answer is "a": I am looking forward to finding a new job.
b) I wanted a/ an apple , but there was only a banana available.
The rule for choosing between "a" or "an" is whether the next word starts with a vowel or not. If the word starts with a vowel then we need to use "an" (an airplane) if it starts with a consonant we need to use "a" (a banana).
In this case, the word is apple, it starts with a vowel, thus the correct answer is "an": I wanted an apple , but there was only a banana available.
Read the excerpt from "Broken Chain."
His mother clipped coupons from magazines and newspapers, kept a vegetable garden in the summer, and shopped at Penney’s and K-Mart. Their family ate a lot of frijoles, which was OK because nothing else tasted so good, though one time Alfonso had Chinese pot stickers and thought they were the next best food in the world.
Why does Soto most likely include this characterization of Alfonso’s mother in the story?
to show that she uses a variety of foods when she cooks for her family
to support the idea that the family does not have money to spend on braces
to show what a close relationship Alfonso has with his mother
to support the idea that Alfonso does not always appreciate his family
Answers
Answer:
D). To support the idea that Alfonso does not always appreciate his family.
Explanation:
Characterization is elucidated as the process through which the authors reveal the personality(appearance and traits) of a character. It assists the readers to understand a character and relate him/her to the series of events effectively.
In the given excerpt, Soto involves characterization of Alfonso's mother through various descriptions like 'his mother clipped coupons, kept a vegetable garden, shopped at Penney's' to reinforce the idea that Alfonso does not always appreciate his family. But he also critiques them the other times as he valued the outer beauty or appearance more than the inner purity of soul. Thus, this instance substantiates this claim yet he later realizes when breaks the chain of his bike that 'all that matters is the inner beauty.' Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

1. Read the passage. Then answer the question. The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I–– I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. What is a theme of “The Road Not Taken”? How does the writer develop the theme?

To make an inference correctly, a reader should
explain how the inference is influenced by modern language.
show how the inference impacts the language in the text.
provide evidence to support the inference.
describe how the inference affects the plot.
Answers
The correct answer is C. Provide evidence to support the inference.
Explanation:
When you make an inference you use the information and details in a text to get to a conclusion that is not explicitly stated. This implies, to make a correct inference you will need to identify key details and use logical processes such as inductive or deductive reasoning to get to a conclusion. Also, because you will create a conclusion that is not explicitly stated it is important to support this with the details or evidence you used. Therefore, in this case, you should "provide evidence to support the inference".

Explanation:
In Ernest Hemingway’s “In Another Country,” he likes to explain events in details characterizes his word choice.
What do you mean by word choice?
In writing, "word choice" refers to the use of clear, concise language that not only effectively transmits information to the reader but also enlightens them.
Effective word choice examples avoid jargon, avoid overusing clichés, emphasize denotations and connotations, offer clear meaning, and don't have a large vocabulary.
Success as an author depends on making the appropriate word choices while crafting a text. Like most other types of writing, academic writing involves a variety of options.
When it comes time to write, you must carefully select the words that will best convey the idea before deciding how to rearrange them into phrases, sentences, and even paragraphs.
It is simpler for readers to understand a concept when the language is strong. It elaborates, explains, and clarifies concepts.
When analyzing word choice, it's crucial to take into account the issues preventing the author from providing the readers with accurate information.

A Transcendentalist would say that religion is a way for a person's soul to connect with the Divine Spirit.
True
False
Answers
Answer:
If you were to be open-minded and view/interprets all religions as viable options then yes. However, if one is closed-minded to anything outside their religion or beliefs they are severely limiting themselves from the spirit.
Explanation:
This is because the soul grows from learning experiences and this can be done faster and easier if one's mind is open and desire for wisdom is burning.
A state of being that has beyond the constraints of physical existence and, by some definitions, has also become independent of it is known as transcendence in religious experience. Thus, it is true.
What person's soul to connect with the Divine Spirit?One must be open-minded and believe that all religions are legitimate. However, if one has a closed mind to anything that is not a part of their beliefs or worldview, they are severely restricting their access to the spirit.
Transcendence is the component of a deity's nature and power that is beyond all accepted physical principles and wholly unrelated to the material realm. In contrast, immanence maintains that a deity is fully accessible to animals in many ways because they are present in the physical world to the fullest extent possible.
This is because learning experiences aid in the expansion of the soul, and this can occur more quickly and readily if one has an open mind and a strong thirst for knowledge.
Therefore, it is true that A Transcendentalist would say that religion is a way for a person's soul to connect with the Divine Spirit.
