The Importance of Exploration
adapted from NASA
Is space exploration really desirable at a time when so much needs to be done on Earth? It is a serious question that requires a serious answer. One could present many answers as to why undertaking a robust space program is necessary, including everything related to jobs, education, technology development, and national security. In an ideal world, however, one answer is sufficient: we should undertake it for the most basic of reasons—for our self-preservation as a creative, as opposed to a stagnating, society. The concept of space exploration is deeply rooted in our historical context.
Exploration has always been part of the American character. The intangible desire to explore and challenge the boundaries of what we know and where we have been has provided benefits to American society for centuries. For example, the exploration of the American West during the 19th century is a prime example of American exploration that led to the advancement of society. More land was found on the western frontier for settlement and new resources were discovered for use, leading to the nation's growth. Some have argued that many of the distinctive characteristics that make up American society, including inventiveness, inquisitiveness, and individualism, derived from the existence of a frontier. Although the western frontier closed around 1890, Americans later found a new frontier where that same curiosity translated to space exploration. Space as a new frontier has always been a driver of the U.S. space programs.
As H. G. Wells said many years ago, "Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe." We are still in that race today, and surely an international cooperative venture into space strikes a blow against catastrophe and leads to a victory for civilization. Great things were achieved in the past in the name of competition, including the Apollo program, which would never have happened without Cold War competition. The Space Race between the Soviet Union and the U.S. led to the development of programs devoted to scientific research and inventions. Specifically, after the Soviet Union successfully launched Sputnik I, the world's first artificial satellite, America responded by developing and launching a satellite known as Explorer I. It now remains to be seen whether great things may be done in the name of international cooperation.
If history has taught us anything, we must look to the future with the goal of preserving a culture that embraces endless possibilities in the spirit of both science and exploration. As we have seen in the past, exploration of the unknown leads to advancements and improvements that are beneficial to society.

Which two sentences from the passage are details and evidence used to support the author's claim?
-More land was found on the western frontier for settlement and new resources were discovered for use, leading to the nation's growth.
-We are still in that race today, and surely an international cooperative venture into space strikes a blow against catastrophe and leads to a victory for civilization.
-Specifically, after the Soviet Union successfully launched Sputnik I, the world's first artificial satellite, America responded by developing and launching a satellite known as Explorer I.
-Some have argued that many of the distinctive characteristics that make up American society, including inventiveness, inquisitiveness, and individualism, derived from the existence of a frontier.
-Space as a new frontier has always been a driver of the U.S. space programs.
Answer:
-Some have argued that many of the distinctive characteristics that make up American society, including inventiveness, inquisitiveness, and individualism, derived from the existence of a frontier.
-Space as a new frontier has always been a driver of the U.S. space programs.
Explanation:
According to the reading of the text, the main issue addressed by the author is that the need for human beings to want to explore and conquer space is unjustifiable, if we observe that the earth is a planet with many problems to be solved. The author states that the ideal was that human beings were first concerned with solving problems on their own planet so that they would later wish to explore and conquer other territories, but the desire for conquest and the fascination for overcoming borders is so intrinsic to human beings, especially to Americans, that the desire to break this boundary between humans and the mysteries of space becomes greater than anything else. To support, that is, to intensify this argument and show it as true, the author presents the following sentences:
-Some have argued that many of the distinctive characteristics that make up American society, including inventiveness, inquisitiveness, and individualism, derived from the existence of a frontier.
-Space as a new frontier has always been a driver of the U.S. space programs.

17. All the guests seemed to have enjoyed the party, although Ann some more attractive records. A. could choose B. was able to choose C. could have chosen D. should choose C 2:1 77
Answer:
C
Explanation:
C because "Although Ann could´ve chosen more attractive records" makes the most sense out of the options given.
It can´t be D or A because they´re not in present tense.
It can´t be B because there´s "although" and "more" in the sentence.
"All the guests seemed to have enjoyed the party, although Ann was able to chose some more attractive records" doesn´t make sense.
To review your comprehension and recall after you read, you should:
A make connections to previous concepts.
В
observe your words and habits.
summarize the information in writing.
D identify graphics and illustrations.
Answer:
A. When students come to make sense of new information, ideas, or concepts, they must do so in terms of their existing knowledge, experience, values, and understanding: everything new is interpreted in the light of what is already known. Because students have unique packages of prior learning and experience, they can respond in very different ways to the same new learning. But unless they can connect it to and integrate it with what they already know, they will struggle to remember it, let alone understand and apply it. This is crucially important for those of our students whose cultural background is quite different from our own, because we can make even fewer assumptions about their prior knowledge and experience or about their values and understanding. In such circumstances, a culturally responsive pedagogy is essential. B. Good habits make a very important part of our lives. They act as a key to a happy and peaceful life. A good person is known by his/her good habits. Any individual who has acquired good habits acts as a role model for the society and the people he/she meets. Habits determine the personality of a human being. A good person will always have the good habit of speaking the truth and being honest. Good habits should be practiced by every person of society and of each age group. For example, every child should have the habit of going early to bed at night and rising early in the morning, of respecting the elders and being polite to the young ones. One must always be helpful and generous to everyone. We should also take care of personal hygiene as it is also a very important part of personality development. The most important good habits that will always make our life successful are the habits of telling the truth, of being punctual and of working hard. It is easy to follow bad habits as they do not require hard work. For example, it is easy to sleep in bed for long hours in the morning, it is easy to leave any work half done when tired, but it is difficult to always complete your task and to stop being lazy. Forming good habits required determination and efforts. But once a person forms a habit, it is difficult to break it. Therefore always form only good habits.D. Graphic design and illustration are two separate creative fields. But they tend to overlap sometimes. Usually, graphic design is more seen as a commercial art. Illustration is viewed mostly as a fine art. Graphic design is more about communicating with a target audience, while illustration is concerned mostly about a creative interpretation. Milton Glaser says, ‘To design is to communicate clearly by whatever means you can control or master.’Explanation:

It is not usually news, when another old cave is discovered in the South of France. Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them. However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably,horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals. Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside. Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was discovered.

Answer:
c. A novel that pokes fun at a powerful, corrupt politician
Explanation:
A satirical work uses irony and humor to mock a political or societal situation in an exaggerated manner as a means to criticize it and subtly illustrate the truth of reality. A novel that "pokes fun at a powerful, corrupt politician" would clearly be satirical work.

For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.

Identify the symbolism in the poem. For instance, what do the birds, the singing, and the sky represent? What is the central meaning of the poem?
Answer:
Caged bird, open sky, free birds
Explanation:
The caged bird depicts the African American who has been bound by society, and the cage symbolizes society. The laterally sky, which is far away from the imprisoned bird, represents freedom, since the free bird “identifies the sky his own.” White Americans might be represented by the free bird.
Answer:
In the poem, Maya Angelou compares a caged bird to a free bird. The caged bird represents the African American who is restricted by society, and society is represented by the cage. The sky, which is wide-open, yet distant to the caged bird, symbolizes freedom, as the free bird “names the sky his own.” The free bird could represent white Americans. The free bird’s life is carefree and unfettered, and its voice is beautiful and free. The caged bird, on the other hand, is trapped in a cage and “stands on the grave of dreams.” Its voice is fearful and unnatural. The singing of both birds represents self-expression and how discrimination and inequality can hinder and distort the views, ambitions, and expression of those who are persecuted.

How do certain topics and themes stay relevant across time periods, while others do not?
Answer: not sure if this will help you but in my opinion, I think certain Topics and themes stay relevant because people will talk about some popular topics, while other topics will almost never be talked about.
Explanation:
I’m rlly sorry if this didn’t help :(
Answer: Writers often choose to develop socially relevant themes such as politics, gender dynamics, class inequality, industrialization and its effects, war and its repercussions, or the complexities of relationships. Themes that are relevant to many people across generations tend to remain relevant over time. Readers across different time periods can relate to such themes. For example, literature that explores gender dynamics is as relevant today as it was centuries ago. While the same views may no longer hold true, this theme is open to different areas of exploration. A theme that is hard for readers to identify with as time passes (colonialism and its effects, for example) tends not to span generations.

The Supreme Court case of Tinker v. Des Moines dealt with two students who
were suspended from school for wearing black armbands to protest the
Vietnam War. Their parents sued the school district for violating the students'
right to free speech, but it was determined by lower courts that the school
district had the right to suspend them. When the Supreme Court reviewed the
case, it decided that the school district did not have the right to suspend the
students
Which of these arguments provides the weakest support for the Supreme
Court's decision that students have the right to wear the armbands to school?
A. Students at the school were allowed to wear other controversial
symbols.
B. Armbands are a form of expression, even though they don't involve
speech
C. Five previous court cases showed that armbands fall under First
Amendment pro
D. The armbands were not shown to cause disruption or interfere
with learning
Answer:
C
Explanation:
There wasn't any other previous court cases that said that armbands fall under the first amendment.
Armbands are a form of expression, even if they don't involve sppech is a good argument. If students were allowed to wear other controversial things, then why can't armbands be permitted? The armbands didn't cause disruption. All of those are good arguments.
