On page 69 of fahrenheit 451, what horrible, fictitious fact do we learn about the United States of America?
Read the excerpt from “On the Mountain.”
Jess had done enough climbing to know that most accidents happen when you're going downhill, so she was careful as she headed back. The first mile or so was easy, but during the second mile, she began to get a little nervous. As she went farther down, she began to be less frustrated with Will. He was her climbing companion, and he was supposed to stay with her, but the reverse was true, too. She had abandoned him there on the path. For all she knew, something could have happened to him. Feeling worried, Jess moved faster down the mountain.
Which statement provides the best summary of the scene?
1. Jess is frustrated with Will, so she rushes down the mountain.
2. Jess becomes less angry with Will and begins to think about his safety.
3. Jess feels guilty for abandoning her climbing companion.
4. Jess slows down as the trail unexpectedly narrows during the second mile.

The 15th century to the 18th century was an age of exploration. Many people in Europe were searching for a better life with greater opportunities. The desire for a better life led many to journey across the ocean to find new land to settle. Many European explorers landed in what they called the New World, which would later be called North America. These explorations were filled with challenges.
The first challenge faced by many explorers was money. They needed financial backing to fund the ships, cargo, and crew required to make such a long journey. The solution was royalty, and explorers would approach kings and queens to convince them to invest in their voyages. If the king and queen agreed, then the explorer would have the money needed to fund an expedition. In return, any lands discovered during the voyage were claimed by that country.
The next step was to obtain a seaworthy ship. Many ships were built during the age of exploration, but not all could handle a trip across the Atlantic Ocean. New ships designs were created to suit long voyages. One such type was called a caravel, which was a small ship created for exploration in the 1400s. This type of ship was equipped with cargo space for voyages up to a year long. Caravels were also considered seaworthy because they could travel about 90–100 miles in a day.
Once aboard, the explorers set sail and used maps to navigate through known territory. The maps were not useful once sailors were out of sight of land or in unknown territory. How would they navigate over the vast Atlantic Ocean without any land markers to guide them? This problem led to the invention of navigation equipment. Compasses have a magnetized metal needle that always points north. Sailors use them as a point of reference to tell if their ship is in the right position to move forward. In order to find their location, sailors used astrolabes, sextants, cross staffs, or quadrants to find latitude. With these tools, explorers were able to sail on to discover new lands.
The final–and perhaps most difficult–challenge for many explorers was survival, as voyages could be long and tense. Maintaining supplies and finding land were important to prevent mutinies from occurring. Unfortunately, bringing supplies that would last the entire voyage led to another problem: scurvy. Many sailors died from the disease, as they ate preserved food at sea. To survive, sailors needed to obtain and eat fresh vegetables and fruits.
When sailors and explorers arrived on land, they had already overcome many obstacles. While more challenges awaited them, explorers were able to disembark and realize that had reached the New World.
Which sentence from the text helps the reader identify its structure?
a. In return, any lands discovered during the voyage were claimed by that country.
Selected:b. The 15th century to the 18th century was an age of exploration.This answer is incorrect.
c. This problem led to the invention of navigation equipment.
d. This type of ship was equipped with cargo space for voyages up to a year long.

what does the text of paragraphs 11 and 12 indicate about the purpose, audience, and message of Shapiro's essay?
Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. Here are the paragraphs under consideration from (The Lesson of Salem: Taken from Newsweek, August 31, 1992, by Laura Shapiro):
"Today many scholars believe it was clinical hysteria that set off the girls in Tituba's kitchen. Fits, convulsions, vocal outbursts, feelings of being pinched and bitten-all of these symptoms have been witnessed and described, most often in young women, for centuries.
Sometimes the seizures have been attributed to Satan, other times to God, but ever since Freud weighed in, hysteria has been traced to the unconscious. As Dr. Richard Pohl, of Salem Hospital, told a Tercentenary symposium, hysteria "can mimic all the physical diseases known to man," and occurs when repressed thoughts and emotions burst forth and take over the body. Life could be dreary for girls in 17th-century Salem: their place was home and their duty was obedience; many were illiterate, and there were few outlets for a youthful imagination except in the grim lessons of Puritan theology. Dabbling in magic in the reverend's own kitchen would have been wonderfully scary, perhaps enough to release psychic demons lurking since childhood.
Explanation:
From the text above we could observe that the author tries to give a medical explanation of what happened in Salem so as not to put the blame entirely on the girls.
Remember, in Salem, many women were accused of deliberately practicing witchcraft. However, by quoting a medical professional (Dr. Richard Pohl, of Salem Hospital), commenting about the medical condition "hysteria", who said, "hysteria "can mimic all the physical diseases known to man," In other words, the women were mere victims of emotional and psychological distresses.

In the Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln explains why the dead soldiers will be remembered. Which of the following paragraphs best addresses this idea?
1) Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that “all men are created equal.”
2) Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle field of that war. We come to dedicate a portion of it, as a final resting place for those who died here, that the nation might live. This we may, in all propriety do.
3) But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate – we can not consecrate – we can not hallow —this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here; while it can never forget what they did here.
4) It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that, from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here, gave the last full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in vain; that the nation, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
