write an informational article about Machu Picchu for a website that focuses on travel to places of historical interest. Write an article that explains to tourists the significance of Machu Picchu as a travel destination. Your articles must be based with ideas and information that can be found in the "Machu Picchu" passage set
Answer:
Nestled between the Andes and Amazon Basin is a historical site like no other. Built in the 15th century and conquered by the Spaniards in the 16th century Machu Picchu was trapped in time until the early 1900s, when it was discovered again. Sitting at more than 7,800 feet above sea level it is surrounded by mountain slopes, peaks and valleys. Machu Picchu is the last known Inca stronghold, and it provides a glimpse of the life many Inca’s experienced during the 15th century. The breath-taking cultural site is one of the most signifigant and prized travel destinations in the world. The construction of Machu Picchu was set out to a rigorous plan and according to Historic Santuary of Machu Picchu by UNESCO it “comprises one of the most spectacular creations of the Inca empire.” Several individual quarters may be noted in the ruins including hanging gardens and a ‘royal’ quarter. The building layouts of Machu Picchu provide a glimpse for visitors today to see what the construction and architecture was like in the 15th century Inca empire. All of its giant walls, terraces, and ramps seem to be cut naturally from rock escarpments. The Stones of Machu Picchu by Duane Damon stated that the larger stones of the granite building blocks appeared to weigh 10-15 tons! Every stone was also carefully cut and “exquisitely fitted together.” The use of natural raw materials to provide architecture is said to be one of the world’s greatest examples. It’s no wonder why all kinds of people flock to Machu Picchu to examine the spectacular architecture.
The Stones of Machu Picchu claims that Machu Picchu is one of the world’s great archaeological wonders. Not only does it contain spectacular architecture but the natural setting of Machu Picchu also encompasses its unique enviromental habitats for plenty of unique animal species and rich diversity of flora and fauna.
Historic Sanctuary of Machu Picchu by UNESCO says Machu Picchu is in some of
the scenically most attractive mountainous territory of the Peruvian Andes. The
surrounding valleys have cultivated exceptionally well for over 1,000 years and
some of the habitats give homes to endangered species. Several of them include
the spectacled bear, the dwarf brocket, and the Andean condor. When the ruins
were first discovered again in 1911 by Hiram Bingham he described them as
“covered with trees and moss, the growth of centuries”, as told by Duane Damon
in The Stones of Machu Picchu.
Machu Picchu also contains many historical artifacts. Inca graves, stone dishes
and several bronze implements were discovered, as stated in The Stones of Mach
Picchu. The site contains many major historical and cultural inflences and some of
the people who live around Machu Picchu continue a way of life that resemble their
Inca ancestors, being based on potatoes, maize, and llamas. Although Machu
Picchu has stood for a long time, safety and sanitary issues for travelers and
visitors have started to emerge. However, don’t fret because high quality and new
long-term solutions are being built for the natural wonders. Machu Picchu is a very
unique sight not only for its educational value, but also for its condition.
Machu Picchu is a very signifigant travel destination for many reasons which
include its historical signifigance, amazing structures, and spectacular
enviromental sights. Located in a breathtaking natural setting, the city’s beauty
comes from its amazing architecture and mountaintop views. Visitors from all over
the world flock to the “city of the clouds” every year to get a glimpse of history
uncovered. They look, refect and wonder about many of the unanswered questions
surrounding Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu gives the modern generations a look
back to a time like no other and the experience is sure to last a lifetime.

Jacob really didn't want to go to the dentist yet, he went anyway.
Cross o it bathe commas that are used incorrectly and add a comma when needed.
Answer:
The comma in the original sentence is being used incorrectly. One way of making it right is the following:
- Jacob really didn't want to go to the dentist, yet he went anyway.
Explanation:
When the conjunction "yet" is being used to join two independent clauses as is the case here, it needs a comma before it - not after. That is why the sentence we are analyzing here is incorrect. If we simply place the comma before yet, it will be corrected:
- Jacob really didn't want to go to the dentist, yet he went anyway.
The only way for the comma to be correctly used after "yet" would be if the two clauses were separated by a period ("Jacob really didn't want to go to the dentist. Yet, he went anyway."). However, in that case, we would no longer be joining the clauses.

MIRANDA: If by your art, my dearest father, you have
Put the wild waters in this roar, allay them.
The sky, it seems, would pour down stinking pitch,
But that the sea, mounting to the welkin's cheek,
Dashes the fire out. Oh, I have suffered
With those that I saw suffer. A brave vessel
Who had, no doubt, some noble creature in her
Dashed all to pieces. Oh, the cry did knock
Against my very heart! Poor souls, they vanished.
Had I been any source of power, I would
Have sunk the sea within the earth or ere
It should the good ship so have swilled and
The fraughting souls within her.
Which type of dramatic element is Shakespeare using?
Answer:
Shakespeare is using the monologue.
Explanation:
By reading the text above, we can see that Miranda is telling her father everything she thinks about what happened to the sinking ship and the people who were on it. She demonstrates all of her concern for this ship, what she would have liked to have happened and what she would do if she could avoid this tragedy. All of this is talked about in a long speech. In this way, we can see that Shakespeare made Miranda's speeches a monologue.
The monologue is a long and uninterrupted speech, where the character speaks everything she/he thinks and feels. At that moment, the character may be alone or not, the important thing is that she/he exposes her/his thoughts about something.
Mirando is a character in "The Tempest" a play written by Shakespeare, which tells the story of Pospero, former Duke of Milan, when he was with his daughter, Miranda, isolated on a desert island, planning revenge for those who usurped his real position.

Read the excerpt from "Hokusai's The Great Wave" by Neil MacGregor. The Japanologist Donald Keene, from Columbia University, sees the wave as a metaphor for the changes in Japanese society: The Japanese have a word for insular which is literally the mental state of the people living on islands: shimaguni konjo. Shimaguni is ‘island nations’ konjo is ‘character’. The idea is they are surrounded by water and, unlike the British Isles, which were in sight of the continent, are far away. The uniqueness of Japan is often brought up as a great virtue. A new change of interest in the world, breaking down the classical barriers, begins to emerge. I think the interest in waves suggests the allure of going elsewhere, the possibility of finding new treasures outside Japan, and some Japanese at this time secretly wrote accounts of why Japan should have colonies in different parts of the world in order to augment their own riches. The Great Wave, like the other images in the series, was printed in at least 5,000 impressions, possibly as many as 8,000, and we know that in 1842 the price of a single sheet was officially fixed at 16 mon, the equivalent of a double helping of noodles. This was cheap, popular art; but when printed in such quantities, to exquisite technical standards, it could be highly profitable. Which line is a direct quotation from an external source
Answer:
"The Japanese have a word for insular which is literally the mental state of the people living on islands: shimaguni konjo."
Explanation:
External sources refer to information placed in a text that was taken from another text, or that was approached by another author, or another professional, that is, information created outside the work presented, but that is relevant to the same .
A direct quote, on the other hand, is one in which the author of one text shows exactly what the author of another text has said about a particular subject.
In the text above, we can see a direct quote from an external source on the line: "The Japanese have a word for insular which is literally the mental state of the people living on islands: shimaguni konjo." These are the words used by the Japanese scientist Donald Keene and which are relevant to the text presented.

What word does "nomadic" modify if it is being used as an adjective in this epigram?
"Old longings nomadic leap,
Chafing at custom's chain
Again from its brumal sleep
Wakens the ferine strain."
Answer:
As used in this epigram, "nomadic" is modifying the noun "longings".
Explanation:
This question is tricky because the word order in the poem is inverted. In English, the adjective is placed before the noun it modifies: beautiful girl, blue sky, bright eyes, etc. But here, the author has chosen to place the adjective "nomadic" after the noun it refers to, which would be "longings". What the epigraph means is that our old nomadic longings, that is, that desire we have to move from one place to another, which we inherited from our ancestors, will burst out if we stay in one place for too long.
The poem by John Meyers O'Hara is used as an epigraph (short quotation) at the beginning of "The Call of the Wild", a novel by Jack London.

What does the reader learn about Peuchen from his actions in the excerpt? He is an experienced seaman. He is thinking only of himself. His family is already in a lifeboat. His main desire is to help the others in the boat.
This question is missing the excerpt. I was able to find it online. It is the following:
No. 6 was halfway down when a woman called up to the Boat Deck, "We've only one seaman in the boat!"
"Any seamen there?" Lightoller asked the people on deck.
"If you like, I will go," called a voice from the crowd.
"Are you a seaman?" "I am a yatchsman"
"If you're sailor enough to get out on that fall, you can go down."
Major Arthur Godfrey Peuchen - vice commodore of the Royal Canadian Yatch Club - swung himself out on the forward fall and slid down into the boat. He was the only male passenger Lightoller allowed in a boat that night.
Answer:
What the reader learns about Peuchen from his actions in the excerpt is:
A. He is an experienced seaman.
Explanation:
When a ship is sinking, children and women are prioritized to board the boats. Men are only allowed in when there is room left, which is often not the case. In the excerpt, the reason why Peuchen is allowed in the boat is his experience as a seaman, which can be useful to help keep the women and children safe. That experience is revealed by the narrator's words, when he tells us that Peuchen is a vice commodore of a Yatch Club. It is also revealed by Peuchen's actions. The fact that he is able to swing himself into the boat is already proof of his experience as a seaman. With that in mind, we can choose letter A as the best option.
NOTE: This question does not specify if we can choose more than just one option. In case that is possible, letter D would also be correct. Peuchen's actions do reveal his experience, but they also show a desire to help.
Answer:
The correct answer to this question A. He is an experienced seaman.
Explanation:
Hope this helps, and have a wonderful day! :)
