Answer:
stage directions that reveal emotion
Explanation:

In Shakespeare's play, The Tempest, the character Ferdinand flirts with
Miranda
FERDINAND
Admired Miranda!
Indeed the top of admiration! worth
What's dearest to the world! Full many a lady
I have eyed with best regard and many a time
The harmony of their tongues hath into bondage
Brought my too diligent ear:...
Based on the passage, what idea is best conveyed by Ferdinand's choice of
the word bondage?
O
A. He had known the women his entire life.
O
B. The women considered him of a lower social rank.
O
c. His attraction to the women overpowered him.
O D. He owed most of the women money.
Answer:
C. His attraction to the women overpowered him.
bondage here means being overpowered and not being able to think on one's own.
Explanation:
In 'The Tempest', Ferdinand flirts with Miranda by first showing that he indeed is experienced with women and by acknowledging that he has indeed fallen for their charms he acknowledged that he has experience with women.
in simple terms the text means: ' i have been attracted to many women who talked sweet and made me fall for their charms because i reciprocated their seduction'. this might look like a weird way to flirt for a modern audience by for the time of The tempest, this shows the man to be well traveled and has experience in courting.
Ferdinand's choice of the word 'bondage' conveys his overpowering attraction to Miranda.
Explanation:Ferdinand's choice of the word 'bondage' conveys the idea that his attraction to the women overpowers him. In the passage, Ferdinand expresses his admiration for Miranda by stating that the harmony of other women's tongues has brought his diligent ear into bondage. This suggests that Ferdinand is so captivated by Miranda's beauty and charm that he cannot help but be drawn to her, despite having admired many other women in the past.
A growing trend in most states is the push for year-round education. Most states and school districts still participate in a regular school year with a three-month summer break. However, some believe that it is not nearly as beneficial for students as year-round schooling. One reason is because the summer break is too long, and students tend to forget what they've learned before the break. With year-round schooling, students can better retain what they've learned since there is no long break between grades. Another advantage for students is school uniforms since most school districts are requiring them. Also, year-round school better prepares high school students for college since most college students go to summer school terms as well as fall and spring terms.
Which of the following sentences least supports the main idea of this paragraph?
A.
"With year-round schooling, students can better retain what they've learned since there is no long break between grades."
B.
"One reason is because the summer break is too long, and students tend to forget what they've learned before the break."
C.
"However, some believe that it is not nearly as beneficial for students as year-round schooling."
D.
"Another advantage for students is school uniforms since most school districts are requiring them."
Answer:D
Explanation:D does not relate to the passage it is just a random fact
The sentence that least supports the main idea of the paragraph is option D: "Another advantage for students is school uniforms since most school districts are requiring them."
Explanation:The sentence that least supports the main idea of the paragraph is option D: "Another advantage for students is school uniforms since most school districts are requiring them." This sentence does not directly relate to the topic of year-round education and its benefits. The main idea of the paragraph is that year-round schooling is more beneficial for students compared to the traditional three-month summer break because it allows for better retention of knowledge and better preparation for college.

Review each paragraph of the essay. Then write down one statement from each paragraph that you think sums up the main idea of that paragraph? This if from Nature by Ralph Waldo Emerson?
Paragraph I.
Answer:
In order to reunite with nature, a person needs to withdraw and look at it with fresh and pure eyes, without all the bias that civilization has imposed on us.
Explanation:
In our lives, we are too often immersed in trivial worldly affairs, so much so that we take nature and its beauty for granted. Stars, for example, are so magnificent that they are worthy of adoration. But we often fail to see their magnificence just because we see them every night.
Paragraph II.
Answer:
Nature's beauty and perfection are inexhaustible even for the wisest of people.
Explanation:
We can try to grasp nature's wonders all we want - they will never expire or cease to exist, nor will they become incomprehensible. On the contrary, nature will always reflect both "the wisdom of [a man's] best hour" and "the simplicity of his childhood".
Paragraph III.
Answer:
A man can own fields or farms or woods, but he can never own nature itself.
Explanation:
Nature is integral (whole and undivided). Even though people may draw lines and boundaries through it, they can never own it. Only the poet can grasp its full integrity.
Paragraph IV.
Answer:
Nature is comprehensive and inclusive of all of our feelings.
Explanation:
In nature, a man can reestablish contact with his youth and childhood, but also with his own universal nature. Only there can he finally understand how pointless his egotism is, how unimportant all his worldly concerns and cares.
Paragraph V.
Answer:
In their essence, man and nature are connected with an unbreakable bond.
Explanation:
Even if physically alone, a man can never be truly alone in nature. That is because every element of nature (for example, a bough) reflects his inner, spiritual processes. A storm may take a man by surprise, but it is not unknown or unfamiliar to him.
Paragraph VI.
Answer:
Human spirit and emotions are a result of harmony between man and nature.
Explanation:
We can "read" the same landscape differently, according to our current emotions. For example, a scene that yesterday seemed delightful can today appear as melancholic. "Nature always wears the colors of the spirit," says Emerson in this paragraph. It means that nature is susceptible to our imagination, which in turn means that man and nature are equal, and equally important.
Read the excerpt from "Daughter of Invention".
"Ay, Cuquita." That was her communal pet name for whoever was in her favor. "Cuquita, when I make a million, buy you your very own typewriter." (Yoyo had been nagging her mother for one just like the one her father had bought to do his order forms at home.) "Gravy on the turkey" was what she called it when someone was buttering her up. She buttered and poured. "I'll hire you your very own typist."
Based on this excerpt, what can be concluded about Laura?
Answer: She does not know the grammar rules in English.
Explanation:
"Cuquita, when I make a million, buy you your very own typewriter."
"Gravy on the turkey" and "I'll hire you your very own typist."
Those are her words that are not correctly pronounced and by that we can see that she does not know the grammar rules in English and she is talking broken English. By that, we can also tell that she is not born English speaker and the other excerpts from the book are also showing that she has trouble talking clear English.Laura from 'Daughter of Invention' is presented as a supportive and creative individual, showing warmth towards others in her favor and willing to help them succeed.
Based on the excerpt from "Daughter of Invention," one can conclude that Laura is a creative and supportive character. She gives someone the pet name Cuquita when they are in her favor, indicating a warm and affectionate nature. Furthermore, Laura's promise to buy a typewriter and hire a typist when she makes a million suggests ambition and a desire to nurture and invest in someone's talent. This demonstrates that she values the aspirations of those around her and is willing to provide supportive resources to help them succeed.

ASK FOR HELP
"A leisurely way of talking" was an example of southern local color at the time of the Civil War.
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
In the post-Reconstruction era, Southern local color presented the city with one of its most productive paths back into national prominence through its appeal to northern interest and nostalgia.
Like other local variations, the southern local color could both promote the recognition of culturally preferred parallels between different cultures, and it could also make separatist arguments more palatable through the appealing portrayal of distinction. The South had race, the most obvious symbol of human distinction in America, so that local-colored southern people would compose Georgia, James River Virginia, or Creole New Orleans from backwoods.

Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England.
There is no concept of "health and safety” in Elizabethan England, so you will inevitably feel vulnerable when you arrive. Nauseating smells and sights will assail your senses; contemporary standards of cleanliness will worry you. People die every day from unknown ailments, the young as often as the old. Infectious diseases periodically kill thousands within a few weeks. Even when plague is not in town, it lurks as an anxiety in the back of people’s minds and, when it does strike, their worry turns to terror. On top of the illnesses, the chances of being attacked and hurt are much higher than in the modern world, and workplace injuries are far more common.
What is the central idea of this paragraph?
Infectious diseases, like the plague, killed many people.
Infectious diseases were a great source of concern.
Elizabethans faced health challenges similar to ours today.
Elizabethans faced a variety of challenges in staying healthy.

"O, most wicked speed, to post with such dexterity to incestuous sheets! It is not, nor it cannot come to good. But break, my heart, for I must hold my tongue."
Answer: Hamlet is angry at his mother for getting married to his uncle so quickly after his father's death.
Explanation:
Hamlet is Shakespeare's great tragedy about a man who seeks revenge after his father is murdered by his uncle, Claudius. To add to Hamlet's misery and despair, his uncle got married to his mother, less than a month after his brother's death.
In these particular lines from Act I, Scene II, Hamlet protests over their marriage and criticizes his mother. He is angry at the female gender, claiming that women are weak:
''Frailty, thy name is woman!''
Hamlet explains that even animals would have mourned longer than his mother. According to him, the tears on her cheeks had not even dried, and yet she jumped into ''incestuous sheets". Hamlet expresses his concern for the future and is aware that no good can come out of this marriage. However, he decides he will not confess his feelings to other people at this point. Note that later, when Hamlet meets the ghost of his father, he will devise a plan to act as a mad man and revenge him.

Put an apostrophe after the stressed syllable.
for mal ly
I have no idea how I'm supposed to know where the stress is
The place where the apostrophe should be put is form 'ally.
Explanation:
All English words have syllables. An easy way to understand a syllable is, when you say words aloud clap your hands . One clap words have one syllable and they are not stressed out.
For example: Words like walk, talk, bought, bat e t c are said easily and have one clap.
But words like happy, angry, pretty, ugly e t c, when they are spoken aloud, require two claps, as these words are stressed and broken into two syllables.
Similarly for the word formally, it requires two claps when you speak the word out . This shows that there are two syllables in the word formally.
Answer: Formal 'ly

We Shall Overcome
from a speech given by President Lyndon Johnson in support of the Voting Rights Act of 1965
(1) Many of the issues of civil rights is very complex and most difficult. (2) About this there can and should be no argument: every American citizen must have an equal right to vote. (3) There is no reason which can excuse the denial of that right. (4) In many places in this country men and women are kept from voting simply because they are Negroes.
(5) This bill will establish a simple, uniform standard which cannot be used to ignore their Constitution. (6) It will eliminate unnecessary lawsuits which delay the right to vote. (7) Finally, this legislation will insure that properly registered individuals are not prohibited from voting.
(8) Experience has plainly shown that this is the only path to carry out the command of the Constitution. (9) We must allow men and women to register and vote whatever the color of their skin and extend the rights of citizenship to every citizen of this land. (10) It is wrong—deadly wrong—to deny any of your fellow Americans the right to vote in this country.
(11) Even if we pass it, the battle will not be over. (12) It’s the effort of American Negroes to secure for themselves the full blessings of American life. (13) We must all overcome the crippling legacy of racism and injustice.
(14) And we shall overcome… (15) This great rich, restless country can offer opportunity and education and hope to all—black and white, North and South, sharecropper and city dweller. (16) We shall overcome the enemies of poverty, disease and ignorance.
(17) The bill I am presenting to you will be known as a civil rights bill. (18) In a larger sense, most of the program I am recommending is a civil rights program. (19) Its goal is to open the city of hope to all people of all races. (20) All Americans must have the right to vote. (21) We are going to give them that right. (22) All Americans must have the privileges of citizenship, regardless of race.
(23) I want to be the President who educated young children to the wonders of their world. (24) I want to be the President who helped to feed the hungry and to prepare them to be taxpayers instead of tax eaters. (25) I want to be the President who helped the poor to find their own way and who protected the right of every citizen to vote in every election. (26) I want to be the President who helped to end hatred among his fellow men and who promoted love among the people of all races, all regions and all parties. (27) I want to be the President who helped to end war among the brothers of this earth.

What would be different about a memoir written by a person who witnessed
an event compared to a live television news broadcast about the same event?
A. The writer would have less information about the event.
B. The writer would have fewer sources to make the story accurate.
C. The writer would be better able to know how the event turned out.
D. The writer would have a more objective tone.
The writer would be better able to know how the event turned out.
Answer: Option C.
Explanation:
A person who witnessed an event would always have more details than the news broadcast, this is mainly because the person actually present and witnessed everything that might have happened. For example: if a person witnessed a car accident then he would have a better understanding of how it happened, at what spot it occurred, how many people were in car and so on. Whereas a television broadcast would simply show that a car accident took place. Hence, the writer/person who witnessed an event would be able to known how the event turned out.
A memoir offers a subjective, reflective narrative based on the author's personal memories of an event, emphasizing emotional authenticity and personal context, while a live television news broadcast focuses on objective reporting and factual accuracy.
A memoir written by a person who witnessed an event would differ from a live television news broadcast in several ways. Primarily, a memoir is a subjective account, often involving personal reflections, emotions, and interpretations of the events. Memoirs leverage the author's personal experiences and memories to provide a narrative that, while factually based on the author's life, may include biases, selective memories, or literary embellishments that serve to engage and emotionally resonate with readers.
On the other hand, a live television news broadcast aims to present information as objectively as possible, often relying on immediate facts and multiple sources to provide an accurate report of the event as it unfolds.
Compared to a news broadcast, a memoir may omit certain details that don't serve the narrative or thematic purpose, and it places a greater emphasis on the author's internal experiences and personal context. This approach is less about reporting every detail and more about conveying a compelling and relatable story.
Memoirs can also offer insights into the cultural aspect of events, connecting personal experiences to broader social issues. Therefore, while a memoir may not be the most comprehensive source of information about an event, it provides depth and perspective that news reports often cannot.
