Explanation:
David couldn’t wait to get off work, for he had an exciting weekend planned. He and his seven-year-old son, Landon, were going on a camping trip. As David drove toward the Greenville suburb where Landon lived with his mother, the guilt gnawed at him. He hated that since the divorce nearly a year ago he had not spent the quality time with Landon that he now wished he had. The two-hour drive to Landon’s new home only complicated the wish for more frequent visits. David decided he was not going to dwell on the past but instead look to the future. This weekend camping trip was just what they needed.
2 When David arrived, Landon met him at the door, grinning like someone who’d just won the lottery. An hour later they were setting up camp. Before long, they headed to the creek bank with fishing poles in hand. As they each sat on a five-gallon bucket, few words were spoken, but David knew that old wounds were healing. As Landon reeled in a tiny bream, he looked over at his dad and said, "You know what, Dad? This is the most fun I’ve ever had." Even though his throat was tightening in an effort to hold back tears, David managed to say, "Me too, Son. Me, too."
From which point of view is the story told?
A) Landon’s
B) a friend of David's
C) a third-person narrator's
D) Landon’s mom’s

Which sentence in this excerpt from "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine proposes that the American colonies should be neutral in their
relationships with foreign nations?
I challenge the warmest advocate for reconciliation, to shew, a single advantage that this continent can reap, by being connected with Great
Britain. I repeat the challenge, not a single advantage is derived. Our corn will fetch its price in any market in Europe, and our imported goods
must be paid for, buy them where we will.
But the injuries and disadvantages we sustain by that connection, are without number; and our duty to mankind at large, as well as to ourselves,
instruct us to renounce the alliance: Because, any submission to or dependence on Great Britain, tends directly to involve this continent in
European wars and quarrels; and sets us at variance with nations, who would otherwise seek our friendship, and against whom, we have neither
anger nor complaint. As Europe is our market for trade, we ought to form no partial connection with any part of it. It is the true interest of
America to steer clear of European contentions, which she never can do, while by her dependence on Britain, she is made the make-weight in
the scale of British politics.
Europe is too thickly planted with kingdoms to be long at peace, and whenever a war breaks out between England and any foreign power, the
trade of America goes to ruin, BECAUSE OF HER CONNECTION WITH ENGLAND. The next war may not turn out like the last, and should it not
the advocates for reconciliation now, will be wishing for separation then, because, neutrality in that case, would be a safer convoy than a man of
war. Every thing that is right or natural pleads for separation. The blood of the slain, the weeping voice of nature cries, 'TIS TIME TO PART. Even
the distance at which the Almighty hath placed England and America, is a strong and natural proof, that the authority of the one, over the other,
was never the design of Heaven. The time likewise at which the continent was discovered, adds weight to the argument and the manner in
which it was peopled increases the force of it. The reformation was preceded by the discovery of America, as if the Almighty graciously meant to
open a sanctuary to the Persecuted in future years, when home should afford neither friendship nor safety.
Answer:
According to Paine, "As Europe is our market for trade, we ought to form no partial connection with any part of it. It is the true interest of America to steer clear of European contentions, which she never can do, while by her dependence on Britain, she is made the make-weight in the scale of British politics.

Gary squinted down both sides of the hallway, looking for any signs of the hall monitor on patrol. Everyone was already in class after the sound of the second bell. There was no sign of anyone. Gary smirked. He hadn't been caught skipping school in the past four months. For many teachers at Glendale, Gary was the embodiment of all that was wrong with the student body, and Gary definitely enjoyed being the source of anxiety for his teachers. He would always make an appearance during advisory period and then he would disappear for the rest of the day.
Glad I'm not like those chumps in class, Gary happily thought as he ambled down the hallway. He was almost near the exit when he heard a loud conversation in the boys' bathroom. Normally, Gary would ignore it and be thankful for the distraction, but he heard something that was different. He heard fear in one of the voices.
"Please, please let me go," the voice pleaded shakily.
"You knew that this was going to happen. And I can't let you go because I have principles," a deep voice replied.
"I promise I won't do it again. Please just let me go," the fearful voice said.
Then, there was a loud thump. Gary stood there dumbfounded. For once in his life, he, Gary Paulsen, didn't know what to do. Then, there was a loud thump again. Gary had to act fast. He stormed into the bathroom and instantly saw what the situation was. Mike, the school bully, was enforcing his dominance like always. However, this time he was bullying Ivan, a cool kid in Gary's advisory period. Ivan let Gary borrow pencils whenever Gary bothered to show up. Gary moved toward Mike.
"Whoa, there, Gary. I wasn't doing anything wrong," Mike said quickly.
"Well, if there isn't a problem here, then Ivan, you're free to go," Gary said as he gestured for Ivan to leave.
Ivan looked back at Gary gratefully and ran out of the bathroom. Mike also backed out slowly as Gary stared harshly at him. Gary shrugged his shoulders, walked out, and bumped into Principal Skinner.
Select the correct answer.
How does Gary's character reflect the passage's theme?
A. The character's transformation shows that the unlikeliest of people can be heroes.
B. The character's dialogue reveals that heroes are people of very few words.
C. The character demonstrates that all kids are afraid of being caught skipping class.
D. The character illustrates that bullies do not care who they push around.

Many Americans view the Victorian era as primarily conventional and even prudish, or stuffy. Considering the works you read for this unit, do you think that opinion is accurate or inaccurate? Which texts would you reference to support your opinion? Think about the qualities your chosen texts have that support or refute the image of the Victorian era as prudish or stuffy.
Answer:
I believe that it is inaccurate because the 20th century is more modern and people think that the types of era we had has nothing to do with what our era looks like now. That's not true. People say text and stories such as Romeo and Juliet and Titanic is so clique. They really aren't, they are what makes up our relationships, they are what depicts us on our deep understanding of love. So no, I don't think that the Victorian era is very much not primarily conventional, prudish or stuffy, because the fact is that without the Victorian era we wouldn't be where we are now, and we probably wouldn't have the type of understanding of love we have now.
Answer:
A majority of Americans rightfully consider the Victorian era to be 'prudish and conventional' primarily due to the large class gap that was institutional to the way of life during this time. Many also believe that this particular period in time was the lion's share of prosperity and advancement regarding British society's improvement. While this may dignify the Victorian era, the disparities endured (both mentally and physically) competently outweigh the headway conceived during a time bearing some of the most accomplished authors to walk the earth. Charles Dickens makes a point of this in his novel titled Oliver Twist, in which he discussed the hardship that children experienced under Queen Victoria's reign. These include childhood crime, slavery, and mistreatment, all of which are still seen to this day. In addition, world-renowned author Emily Brontë touches on the idealogy of Victorian family life in her novel Wuthering Heights. The story speaks on the life journey of a young man who withstood orphanhood, servitude and escapes from the lifestyles mentioned earlier.

Transitions should not be used:
A. to connect steps of a process.
B. at the beginning of your clincher sentence.
C. to connect important ideas.
D. in the second sentence of every paragraph.
Answer:
Transitions are these words:
A is not the answer because transitions should be used to connect the steps of a process. That’s the whole purpose of them.
A clincher sentence is a summary sentence. Using transitions for a summary isnt exactly ideal, although sometimes certain instances require the use of transitions. I’m honestly not sure if that answer is correct or not.
Transitions are used to connect important ideas.
Transitions don’t exactly have to be used in the second sentence of every paragraph. Sometimes, a paragraph contains sentences that are related but don’t need to be connected.
So it’s between B. and D.
I’m more inclined to choose B, but I’m not sure.
Sorry if its wrong.

How might Athena feel about Arachne saying she is better than her at weaving and spinning?
Answer:
outraged / jealous / hateful
Explanation:
This question centres around the conflict in the Greek myth "Athena and Arachne".
The basic plot of this story is that Arachne, a young woman who excels at spinning and weaving, foolishly challenges Athena (goddess of weaving, wisdom, and war) to a weaving match. Unfortunately, Arachne's tapestry is more beautiful than Athena's, causing Athena to become angered and, in a fit of rage, to turn Arachne into a spider.
Let's examine the situation here: Athena is the goddess of weaving (among others), which should mean that she's the superior one when it comes to spinning tapestries. Enter a mortal girl, Arachne. She claims that she's better at weaving than a goddess. Of course, Athena must feel outraged, jealous, and even hateful. Who would want someone else to say that they're better at the activity you're known for?
