Read the paragraph.

Violence in video games is essentially to blame for violence in our society. When children are bombarded with monstrous images, they begin to think that these types of actions are normal or acceptable. Children and teenagers are spending excessive numbers of hours playing video games, and they may begin to use them as a guideline for how to act and behave. Even if they do not perform violent actions, they may become less sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of others because of what they see reflected in these games.

Which phrase best explains the kind of words the writer uses to affect the reader?

A:mainly words with strong positive connotations
B:mainly words with strong negative connotations
C:mainly words with neutral and positive connotations
D:mainly words with positive and negative connotations

Explanation:

Given the historical context of "The Story of an Hour," we see that the central context is freedom. During this time, women were oppressed  and restricted from their rights in many contexts. When Mrs. Mallory learns that her husband is dead, she is filled with a joy that came from a security in finding out she was finally free from whatever her husband was holding her back from. However, when he walks in the door, she dies of heartbreak because she realizes once again, she is no longer free. However, the other characters believe that she died because she was so shocked and happy to see him, hence them saying she died of "a joy that kills."

How is lady Macbeth’s behavior a reversal of nature

Answers

Lady Macbeth is the opposite of a ‘normal’ Shakespearean woman. Women during these times are meant to be ‘soft’, loving mothers who are meant to stay at home, have and raise children and take care for their husband. However, Lady Macbeth states: “I would, while it was smiling in my face,
Have plucked my nipple from his boneless gums
And dashed the brains out, had I so sworn as you”. This shows the audience that Lady Macbeth isn’t ‘motherly’ like she should be, in fact she would harm a baby. This also presents the theme of violence, which women were not meant to be. She’s also presented to be an abnormal wife. Lady Macbeth seems to be in control of the relationship at first. She manipulates Macbeth into killing Duncan using emasculation - “When you durst do it, then you were a man”. During the Shakespearean times men were meant to be in charge, instead lady Macbeth seems to be. This is also shown during the scene where Macbeth kills Duncan and then comes back to lady Macbeth with the daggers, so lady Macbeth had to take the daggers and plant them on the guards herself - she basically picks up his slack because he’s too vulnerable after murdering his so-called friend and his king who he was meant to me loyal to. This is a reversal of nature because lady Macbeth is the one that is meant to be vulnerable, not Macbeth. (However it’s important to note that lady Macbeth does become vulnerable during the end of the play where she ends up killing herself. This could be said that lady Macbeth restored nature through her death). Not only this, but due to her manipulating Macbeth into killing Duncan there was a reversal of nature when Macbeth became king because he disturbs the natural order. It’s believed that God choices the king and therefore, it was Duncan’s divine right to be king and not Macbeth’s. This disturbed nature - which is shown though the storms and when the animals go insane and eat each other when Macbeth becomes king. (You could also say nature became restored when Macbeth was killed and Malcom becomes king which was his divine right). Another way lady Macbeth’s behaviour was a reversal of nature was when she called on evil spirits to ‘unsex’ her, so she can become ‘manly’ enough to kill Duncan herself. This is not only a reversal of nature because women weren’t meant to be violent, but also because she’s speaking to evil spirits - linking to the supernatural.

Recently you and some of your class were chosen to take part in a festival your principal is very pleased that you took part at the festival. (article writing)

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

This would be a short article so you can develop more ideas.

Recently, I and my friend from the class was chosen to take part in a festival. My principal is very pleased that I took part in the festival because I have been part of the organization of previous festivals and the principal knows that I am a committed student who focuses on having everything prepared to have a successful event.

This time is a music festival before the summer break.

We are especially thrilled to know that it is possible that we have extra funds to hire some professional musicians that are very famous in the local club scene in the city. So this could be the first time we have pro musicians at a school festival.

The key to a great festival is organization and production. If we can have a good team that is committed to working, we have a good chance to be successful.

That is why I am going to be part of the operation team. I like the production area. It is fascinating to handle the operations of a festival because there are many things to do. There has to be a responsible for renting the sound system, the stage, the lighting system, and security. Another team member has to connect the sponsors, others, transportation, and catering.

We are on time, and with the support of the principal, I know that this year's festival is going to be one night to remember.

Explanation:

I'm american and our food is very diverse. The U.S is considered the melting pot of the world, which means we have many types of food. Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Asian, and American. I like all of these types of food. From pizza to shrimp tacos, we have it all. I love my country and our food, and I couldn't be happier living in the U.S. (Besides the pandemic...) The more places I go, the more I learn. I can't wait to see what else we have one day.

Directions: Read the passage, and answer the question that follows.

The Black Death

A The growing cities of the Middle Ages could be exciting places. However, many were dark, unsafe, and unhealthy. Streets were narrow, crooked, and filthy. There were no streetlights or police. Many people did not go out alone at night for fear of robbers. If people did go out, they often took servants along with them for protection and to carry lanterns or torches to light the way. Waste was dumped into open gutters. All in all, conditions were disgusting. This caused diseases to spread quickly through the crowded cities.
B Beginning in 1347, one such disease, a terrible plague, swept through Europe. The disease was called the Black Death because of the darkened color of its victims’ faces after they died. The plague began in Asia and spread along busy trade routes. Trading ships carried the disease west to the Mediterranean. From the Mediterranean ports, the disease spread throughout most of Europe. Rats on the ships carried the disease. Fleas from the rats spread the disease to people.
C Once people became infected, the disease could be spread from person to person. People became infected as they came in contact with the sick. According to Jean de Venette, a friar who lived at the time, young people were more likely to die than old people. Those who got sick lasted only two or three days and then died suddenly. This happened in such great numbers that often those who lived could not keep up with burying the dead. The friar wrote, “Someone who was healthy one day could be dead and buried the next. . . . A healthy person who visited the sick hardly ever escaped death.”
D No one knows the exact number of plague deaths in Europe. Some guess that about 25 million people died in Europe from 1347 to 1351. This was about one third of the entire population. The death rate varied from place to place. Towns seemed to be harder hit than the countryside. Some entire villages and towns were wiped out. The plague affected the rich as well as the poor. Even the great and powerful, including royalty, were struck down. Throughout Europe, populations were devastated by, as the Welsh called it, “death coming into our midst like black smoke.”
E The Black Death greatly affected Europe. Relations between the upper classes and lower classes changed. Workers, now in short supply, demanded higher wages. In several European countries, peasants staged uprisings. There were emotional effects as well. In some areas, the theme of death appeared in poetry, sculpture, and painting. People’s faith was shaken. The church lost some of its power and importance. The Black Death took a greater toll on human life than any war or illness before that time. It was perhaps the greatest tragedy in all of European history.

It is most likely that disease hit towns harder than the countryside because the towns—
a.
had no police
b.
had more rats
c.
were not lighted
d.
were more crowded
