Read the excerpt from "The Scarlet Ibis."
The lightning was near now, and from fear he walked so
close behind me he kept stepping on my heels. The faster |
walked, the faster he walked, so I began to run. The rain
was coming, roaring through the pines, and then, like a
bursting Roman candle, a gum tree ahead of us was
shattered by a bolt of lightning. When the deafening peal of
thunder had died, and in the moment before the rain
arrived, I heard Doodle, who had fallen behind, cry out,
"Brother, Brother, don't leave me! Don't leave me!"
The imagery in this excerpt most reflects
the sense of sight to emphasize the fear that Doodle
was feeling
the sense of sight to emphasize how difficult it was for
the boys to see
the sense of sound to emphasize the frustration of the
narrator.
the sense of sound to emphasize the intense volume of
the storm.

We felt it first, that sickening lurch of the cement under your feet that every Californian knows instinctively—*earthquake*. My first inclination, as always, was to get away: "when in trouble or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout." But the fact was, we were already in the safest place we could be, not in a building that could fall in on us, not out toward the middle of the road where bits of falling cornice could brain us. Earthquakes are eerily quiet—at first, anyway—but this wasn't quiet. This was loud, an incredible roaring sound that was louder than anything I'd ever heard before. The sound was so punishing it drove me to my knees, and I wasn't the only one.

Dear Editor,

Lately, our neighborhood has become extremely noisy. This has occurred because a mall is being constructed close to the residential quarters, and the construction activities have filled our streets with noise and smoke. For several hours each day, huge trucks line up the streets to deliver construction material. This has caused the streets to be overcrowded, resulting in traffic jams. The constant traffic jams and construction have not only caused noise pollution but have also increased air pollution. This situation is causing damage to the health of the people. It particularly affects the sleep quality and overall health of adults as well as kids.
The increase in noise and air pollution is a big threat to the health of the people. I would like to urge the city authorities to rethink their decision to build a mall in such a locality. Once the mall is ready, the traffic situation will only get worse. If city authorities do not cancel their plans, they should at least install noise-blocking boards around all houses to reduce the problem of noise pollution.

Sincerely,
Valencia Woods

What is the purpose of Valencia's letter to the editor?

A.) to convince people to stop building malls and invest in other ventures
B.) to describe the problem faced by the neighborhood and suggest solutions to manage the problem
C.) to explain the meaning of noise pollution and describe the dangerous effects of noise pollution

Why might film makers or directors try to make the main character more likeable in the film than than in the book version of the story?

Answers

Answer:

Because authors usually tell the reader the main character's thoughts, the reader can empathize and still support the main character. In a movie, however, the audience doesn't get the "backstage pass" to the main character's thoughts. In order to make the movie more appealing, the filmmakers need to make the main character more likable.

Answer:

They make the main character more likable in movies so it's easier to relate and empathize with them. This is because films usually can't give out as much background information as easily as books can.

read this passage from "The American Dream." America is essentially a dream, a dream as yet unfulfilled. It is a dream of a land where men of all races, of all nationalities and of all creeds can live together as brothers. The substance of the dream is expressed in these sublime words, words lifted to cosmic proportions: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness." This is the dream. Based on the passage, how does the speaker provide evidence to support the idea of the American dream? by stating that the country was founded on the idea of equality by presenting the idea of men as brothers who live together by stating that the country includes people from many races by presenting the idea that words have the power to help people

Answers

Answer:

By stating that the country was founded on the idea of equality

Explanation:

The author of the passage is justifying his view that there is something as the American Dream, by making reference to the declaration of independence, which the author quotes.

In the quote, the central idea of the nation is explained: all men are equal, and have basic rights that cannot be violated. To the author, this is the American Dream that is still unfulfilled.

What are your perceptions of Joseph Stalin as a leader?

Answers

Answer:   Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin terrorised his own people, but for the first time a survey suggests that most Russians view him favourably.

The respected Levada Center polled Russians aged 18 and above in 137 towns and cities in March. The result: 51% respect, like or admire Stalin.

In the 1930s Stalin's communist terror engulfed the USSR, sending millions to labour camps or firing squads.

But the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany is a source of national pride.

The Levada poll (in Russian) is the highest rating for Stalin in the past 20 years - a period that has seen his portrait reappear across Russia, often with official approval. New Stalin statues have gone up in various places.

One Russian newspaper carried the news with the headline: "Stalin the Superstar".

The United States doesn't fall in this case, but there are some injustices in the U.S, and you aren't forced to do stuff so technically no, it's not a dystopian society.

I used the source from the CDC. The early years of a child’s life are very important for later health and development. One of the main reasons is how fast the brain grows starting before birth and continuing into early childhood. Although the brain continues to develop and change into adulthood, the first 8 years can build a foundation for future learning, health and life success. One thing I found interesting about the article is that children are born ready to learn, and have many skills to learn over many years.
