Answer:
Elisa and the Chrysanthemums share these characteristics: beauty, strength, the inability to go out and explore.
Explanation:
Chrysanthemums are the central symbol of life, vital energies, sexuality in the story. Just like Elisa herself, they need nurturing and attendance. She lives a boring and unfulfilled life in a dull, loveless marriage, and she has never had a chance of finding her true self, except in the garden. That is why she commits to gardening so eagerly: because she couldn't bear to see those flowers withered. At the end of the story, she sees her chrysanthemums on the road, thrown away, "a dark speck" as Steinbeck says. They are wasted, just like Elisa's life, love, and happiness.

What is Mockingbird?The Mimidae family of passerine birds includes the mockingbirds. The habit of some species to loudly and repeatedly imitate the songs of other birds as well as the sounds of insects and amphibians is what makes them most well-known.
There are around 17 species in two genera, but three species of Galapagos mockingbirds were once divided into a third genus, Nesomimus.
Mimus and Melanotis are not each other's closest relatives; rather, Melanotis looks to be more closely linked to the catbirds, while Mimus' closest extant relatives appear to be thrashers, like the sage thrasher.
Therefore, Authors must make sure the reader is interested in characters when bad things happen. Authors should slowly reveal information about a mysterious character. Crime in a plot is a good tool for showing the human condition.

It knowing the airmen's fears it enable us to identify on a basic or normal level.
With books that are good, the reader wants to recognize strongly with the characters.
Explanation:
With good books, the reader wants to strongly recognize with the characters, so good writers highlights certain traits they feel will resonate with others.
In Seabiscuit, Hillenbrand made characters strong around the horse who were examples of fears and universal hopes common to most of us.

Explanation:
(22 pnts) Read the quotation by Dorothea Lange about the photo “Migrant Mother” from Years of Dust.
I saw and approached the hungry and desperate mother, as if drawn by a magnet. I do not remember how I explained my presence or my camera to her, but I do remember she asked me no questions. . . . I did not ask her name or history. She told me her age, that she was thirty-two. She said that they had been living on frozen vegetables from the surrounding fields, and birds that the children had killed. She had just sold the tires from her car to buy food. There she sat in that lean-to tent with her children huddled around her, and seemed to know that my pictures might help her, and so she helped me. There was a sort of equality about it.
Now, read an excerpt about the photo from Years of Dust.
Lange, the children recalled, had promised not to publish the photo, but had done exactly that. It appeared on March 10, 1936, in the San Francisco News, above First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt's weekly "My Day" column. Thompson saw the picture and felt betrayed. For the rest of her life, she resented Lange's use of her image for publicity. Thompson was an active woman, who had helped organize farm workers' unions. "She was a very strong woman," said daughter Katherine, seen in the photo by her mother's right shoulder. "She was a leader. I think that's one of the reasons she resented the photo—because it didn't show her in that light."
How do these two accounts differ?
A) Lange describes a situation that is more desperate than the true circumstances that Thompson’s daughter explains
B)Thompson’s daughter describes a situation that is more desperate than the true circumstances that Lange explains.
C) Lange describes a situation that is more lighthearted than the true circumstances that Thompson’s daughter explains.
D)Thompson’s daughter describes a situation that is more lighthearted than the true circumstances that Lange explains.

Mr. Lewis and Maverick have different viewpoints about sharing
information. Why do they differ in opinion? Be sure to cite
evidence to support Mr. Lewis' view and evidence to support
Maverick's opinion. The hate u give
Answer:
Mr. Lewis believes that everything should be put out there for the world to see, he doesn't believe in keeping silent in the face of the crimes gangs are committing around the neighborhood.
Maverick believes in keeping silent and following the unwritten rule of the neighborhood about snitching.
Explanation:
Mr. Lewis doesn't believe in keeping silent in the face of the crimes gangs are committing around the neighborhood, he pointed out that unlike the rest of the neighborhood he isn't scared of king. As a war veteran he thinks the dangers he faced such as his prosthetic leg and the scar on his stomach "after some white boys cut me 'cause i drank from their fountain" are much more serious experiences compared to "King's games". "I done face a whole lot worse than some so-called king. Ain't nothing he can do but kill me, and if that's how how i gotta go for speaking the truth, that's how how i gotta go".
Mr. Lewis pointed out the relative absurdity of gangs compared to racial segregation and war, and how they lead to dissention within a community that must stick together in the face of oppression. He called out the way in which King uses silence and fear to control everyone in Garden Heights including Maverick.
Maverick calls Mr. Lewis crazy for snitching on live television, saying that "Man, you cant be going on live TV, snitching like that. You a dead man walking, you know that, right?". He believes in following the unwritten code of minding your own business and not snitching, to protect himself and his family.
Maverick was once a gang member and he knows how gangs work "Nah, but I know how the game work", so trying to live a clean life he thinks keeping silent and keeping his family safe is what is more important to him than doing what he knows isn't even going to change anything around the neighborhood.

The editorial points out "how many hoops students must jump through"
just to graduate. Because the writer seems to be criticizing these hoops,
what would you expect him to argue for?
A)
for schools to create more testing requirements
B)
for test preparation classes to be required for every
student
for standards to be raised to ensure a strenuous
program of study
D)
for graduation requirements to be reduced so
students aren't so stressed out
Answer:
the correct answer is D
Explanation:
He is making the case for fewer graduation requirement so that students won't feel as pressured. Option (D) is a right solution as a result.
State or local school districts set the graduation requirement. How well children are being prepared for the demands of a global economy can be judged by how many of them graduate from high school with a standard diploma.
States and districts have strengthened their graduation requirements since the 1980s to incorporate more demanding academic curriculum in line with the stringent academic pressured content standards imposed by states.
Federally mandated accountability uses a metric known as the Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate to account for state graduation rates (ACGR).
