It angers him, and it steels his determination to push northward. Read the excerpt from "Children of the Drug Wars." Children from Central America have been making that journey, often without their parents, for two decades. But lately something has changed, and the predictable flow has turned into an exodus.

What is Judson doing with the whiskey?
Answer:
Judson put in a rat poison into the bottle of whiskey to catch the thief who has been coming to steal it
Explanation:
The story "Ruthless" is about a man named Judson Webb. Judson and his beautiful wife plan on travelling away to another town for the winter.
He has a special safe where he stores his guns,fishing equipment and liquor. Last winter while he was away with his wife someone broke into his house and stole one of his drinks. He has the feeling that the person will attempt to do the same thing this year.
Judson decides to put in a rat poison into one of the open bottle of whiskey inorder to catch the thief. His wife tried to discourage him from doing this but he bluntly refused, she then went outside the house to wait for him to pack up his things.
As Judson was about leaving he remembered that he had forgotten to put his hunting boots into his bag. He went back to get them, as he was about reaching out to get the boots he stepped on an acorn which made him slide and hit his head on the table.
He fell to the ground and was unconscious for some minutes. By the time he woke up he found himself in Alec's arms. Alec is the caretaker who was incharge of watching their houses while they were away.
Alec found the bottle of whiskey on the table and decided to give Judson one glass to revive him. Judson was still not conscious enough to remember that the drink was poisonous. He drank up the glass of whiskey and died immediately.
Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third Dawn came with ringlets shining.
Then we put up our masts, hauled sail, and rested,
letting the steersmen and the breeze take over.

Which sentence in the excerpt best supports the theme of harmonious living?
A Spark Neglected Burns the House
by Leo Tolstoy (adapted excerpt)
There once lived in a village a peasant named Iván Stcherbakóf. He was comfortably off, in the prime of life, the best worker in the vill
had three sons all able to work. The eldest was married, the second about to marry, and the third was a big lad who could mind the h
and was already beginning to plough. Iván's wife was an able and thrifty woman, and they were fortunate in having a quiet, hard-wor
daughter-in-law. There was nothing to prevent lván and his family from living happily. They had only one idle mouth to feed; that was
old father, who suffered from asthma and had been lying ill for seven years. Iván had all he needed: three horses and a colt a cow witi
and fifteen sheep. The women made all the clothing for the family, besides helping in the fields, and the men tilled the land. They alwa
grain enough of their own to last over beyond the next harvest and sold enough oats to pay the taxes and meet their other needs. So I
and his children might have lived quite comfortably had it not been for a feud between him and his next-door neighbor, Limping Gabrie
son of Gordéy Ivánof.
As long as old Gordéy was alive and Iván's father was still able to manage the household, the peasants lived as neighbors should. If the
women of either house happened to want a sieve or a tub, or the men required a sack, or if a cart-wheel got broken and could not be me
at once they used to send to the other house, and helped each other in neighborly fashion. When a calf strayed into the neighbor's
thrashing-ground, they would just drive it out, and only say, "Don't let it get in again: our grain is lying there." And such things as locking
the barns and outhouses, hiding things from one another or backbiting were never thought of in those days.
That was in the fathers' time. When the sons came to be at the head of the families, everything changed.
Answer:I belive the answer is there was nothing to prevent Ivan and his family from being happy
Explanation:
This is right because all the other sentences don’t say everyone’s happy maybe one person or none at all if there’s nothing preventing you from being happy then your happy simple as that
Answer:
Iván had all he needed: three horses and a colt, a cow with a calf, and fifteen sheep. THIS IS INCORRECT
Explanation:
Took the test and choose this, IT IS WRONG
My second guess is "There was nothing to prevent Iván and his family from living happily."

Claire is on a business trip. She'll be traveling from Liverpool, England, to Melbourne, Australia. The latitude value of Liverpool is 53.41 degrees, and the longitude value is -2.99 degrees. The latitude value of Melbourne is -37.81 degrees, and the longitude value is 144.96 degrees. The two cities are degrees apart in latitude. The two cities are degrees apart in longitude.
Answer:
the difference in latitude is 91.22°
the difference in longitude is 147.95°
Explanation:
For Liverpool, London. The latitude is 53.41°, longitude is -2.99°
For Melbourne, Australia. The latitude is -37.81°, longitude is 144.96°
The negative or positive magnitude of their values shows their position on either sides of the origin of the latitude (equator) and the origin of the longitude (prime meridian).
The latitude measures the relative position of a point, north or south of the equator (latitude 0°). The longitude measures the relative position, east or west of the prime meridian (longitude 0°)
the difference in latitude is 53.41° - (-37.81°) = 53.41° + 37.81° = 91.22°
the difference in longitude = 144.96° - (-2.99°) = 144.96 + 2.99 = 147.95°
Answer:
The change in latitude, Δφ, from Liverpool to Melbourne is 91.22° south
The change in longitude, Δλ, from Liverpool to Melbourne is 147.95° East
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters given are;
The latitude of Liverpool is 53.41°
The longitude of Liverpool is -2.99°
The latitude of Melbourne is -37.81°
The longitude of Melbourne is 144.96°
The change in latitude from Liverpool to Melbourne = Δφ
Δφ = 53.41° - (-37.81°) = 53.41° + 37.81° = 91.22°
The change in latitude, Δφ, from Liverpool to Melbourne = 91.22° south
The change in longitude from Liverpool to Melbourne = Δλ
Δλ = -2.99° - 144.96° = -147.95°
Therefore the change in longitude from Liverpool to Melbourne = 147.95° East.

'Agua Viva," a Sculpture by Alfredo Gonzalez: In at least 200 words, explain how the author uses characterization to express and develop one of the themes in this story. Use details from the story to support your response.
Answer:
The author uses characterization to develop the theme of victimization. Fredo is a victim of the bullying of young kids and his isolation. Throughout the story, we watch as the author uses the characterization of Fredo to develop victimization by having Fredo "wake up" to reality. For example, the young neighborhood boys pick on him, " He looked up to see three boys throwing things at him that he could not immediately identify. Nor could he recognize the boys. Were they his son's friends? Where was his son? "Filthy Fredo, filthy Fredo, ya ya-ya-ya," they shouted." When the neighborhood boys do this it wakes Fredo up to reality and he starts to realize that he is being victimized by these young boys. Later when he goes into his house he then realizes how he has become a victim to his own emotions and self-caused isolation. This is when Fredo realizes this, " In the end—after a year—they released him as "traumatized" but "harmless," Here this displays how he has become a victim to his own emotions and he has a traumatic past. Then when he looks in the mirror, " And he turned and gazed in the mirror—what he saw there stopped his heart. In the mirror was the head and shoulders of a man who had not bathed, shaven, or shorn his hair for five or more years and who had not seen himself in that time either." When Fredo looks in the mirror this is when he truly realizes what he has become a victim of over all these years.
