(50 POINTS EACH)Imagine you are going to lead a discussion about the first chapter of The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle. Make a list of possible discussion questions based on specific passages from the text. What questions do you have? Were you confused by anything? Are there certain events or moments that are worth talking about in detail? List three questions with their corresponding passages in your journal.
Answer:
Why was Charlotte overwhelmed to discover that she would be the only passenger aboard the ship?
At last Mr. Grummage came down to the dock. As he drew near I saw that his face was flushed, with an angry eye that alarmed me. "Is something amiss?" I asked in a whisper. "Not at all!" he snapped. "All is as planned. You have been expected. The ship's cargo is loaded. The captain is ready to sail. But . . ." He trailed off, looked back at the ship, then turned again to me. "It's just that . . . You see, those two families, the ones you would be traveling with, your companions . . . they have not arrived." "But they will," I said, trying to compose myself. "That's not entirely certain," Mr. Grummage allowed. "The second mate informs me that one family sent word that they could not reach Liverpool in time. The other family has a seriously ill child. There is concern that she should not be moved." Again Mr. Grummage glanced over his shoulder at the Sea-hawk as if, in some fashion, these events were the ship's fault. Turning back to me, he continued. "As it stands, Captain Jaggery will accept no delay of departure. Quite proper. He has his orders." "But Mr. Grummage, sir," I asked in dismay, "what shall I do?" "Do? Miss Doyle, your father left orders that you were to travel on this ship at this time. 15 I've very specific, written orders in that regard. He left no money to arrange otherwise. As for myself," he said, "I'm off for Scotland tonight on pressing business." "But surely," I cried, frustrated by the way Mr. Grummage was talking as much as by his news, "surely I mustn't travel alone!"
Why did Zachariah give the blade to Charlotte?
Miss Doyle, please," he said softly, taking the cup but holding me with his eyes, "I have something else to offer." "No more tea, thank you." "No, miss. It is this." He held out a knife. With a scream I jumped back. "No, no! Miss Doyle. Don't misunderstand! I only wish to give you the knife as protection--in case you need it." He placed a wooden sheath on the blade and held it out. The knife was, as I came to understand, what's called a dirk, a small dagger like blade hardly more than six inches in length from its white scrimshaw handle, where a star design was cut, to its needle-sharp point. Horrified, I was capable only of shaking my head.
What were the two men outside of Charlotte's cabin talking about her being witness to?
Then I heard, "The only one I could get to come, sir, is the Doyle girl. And with them looking on, I had to put on a bit of a show about wanting to keep her off." "Quite all right, Mr. Keetch. If there has to be only one, she's the trump. With her as witness, they'll not dare to move. I'm well satisfied." "Thank you, sir."
Hope this helps!
Mr. Grummage eventually descended to the dock. As he got closer, I noticed that his face was red and that he had an angry-looking eye. "Is there a problem?" I whispered my question. Not at all, he exclaimed. passages in your journal.
What is the passage?The length of a passage varies depending on the context and the goal of the extraction. A passage can be, for example, a sentence's clause, a few phrases, or it can be a few pages.
An excerpt or segment of a literary work, whether it be fiction or nonfiction, is referred to as a passage. Despite some claims to the contrary, most passages are at least one paragraph long and frequently multiple. They had influence over how things were transported through their region.
"Everything went according to plan. You were anticipated. The ship is laden with cargo. The skipper is prepared to set sail. But . . ." He stumbled, turned to face the ship once more, then continued speaking to me. "Just the fact that. You know, the two families, who would be your companions on the trip, have not yet shown up." But they will, I answered,
Therefore, I muttered my query. Not at all, he cried out. passage sections of your journal.

Why is Calixta happy at the end of the story? How can everyone be happy at the end of the story? What does the author's attitude toward the adultery seem to be? Is there an overall "moral tone" to the story?
This question is about "the storm" by Kate Chopin
Answer Explanation:
1. Calixta is happy at the end of the story because her son and her husband arrive home safely, even in the face of the storm, besides, she does not feel any remorse for the adultery she committed.
2. Everyone is happy because she has a family that was not destroyed by her actions, and they know that adultery is impossible to be discovered, so their lives, as they are used to, will be maintained.
3. Reading the short story, we have the impression that the author does not encourage adultery, but does not see it as something capable of destroying a family and ruining the marriage, but rather as something that can be kept secret, without hurting anyone.
4. The only moral tone that can be considered in this story is that people should do what they want and make them happy regardless of the rules established by society.

Amir has researched the effects of screen time on
adolescents. Now, Amir is writing a response. Amir
does not think that screen time is something all teens
can avoid
Which detail from the source best supports Amir's
idea?
While many schools have brought in 1:1 programs, which
provide one device for every student, experts recommend
that teens and tweens limit their screen time and use of
technology.
Screen time can have positive effects and can be used for
learning, but it can also be negative and toxic to teens. At
home, teens use screen time to connect with others,
watch videos, and play games, but also to engage in social
media banter and sharing. At school, students may watch
educational videos that connect to a lesson.
Either way, teens are getting more screen time than ever
before. Both parents and teachers need to set limits. Just
because the technology is available does not mean it is
always helpful, experts say.
Teachers who wanted technology in their classrooms are
now finding it to be a distraction, as students use devices
for noneducational purposes.
* "Teens are getting more screen time than ever
before."
O "Parents and guardians may be able to adjust
screen time at home, but not every place will allow
for those limits."
O "Technology-free schools do exist."
O "Screen time can have positive effects and can be
used for learning, but it can also be negative and
toxic to teens."
Answer:
"Teens are getting more screen time than ever
before." is the answer you are looking for.
Nowadays, especially with the pandemic taking place, students, teens, and just about every child is being forced to use more and more electronic devices every year, thus increasing screen time. This isn't something that every parent can control.
Explanation:
Although some parents to not condone such long periods of screen time, it may be our future. Some students are forced to take part in 100% eLearning, therefore enforcing screen time to be extended.
Answer:
“Parents and guardians may be able to adjust screen time at home, but not every place will allow for those limits.”
is the answer i tried
“Teens are getting more screen time than ever before.”
and got it wrong

The statement “But changes came in the family . . . ” serves which of the following purposes?
A.
to describe the erratic life of young teenagers
B.
to emphasize the speaker’s family connections
C.
to hide the anger the speaker feels toward the situation
D.
to indicate a shift in tone
E.
to contrast childhood with adulthood
Answer:
c
Explanation:
Because it's how the speaker feels
I believe the answer is E because later on in the sentence she states that she is going to school in Jacksonville. " But changes came in the family when I was thirteen, and I was sent to school in Jacksonville"
It doesn't sound like she has any anger in the sentence, she's not stating any family connections, nor is it about her life a young person. The only other option I see being right is D. As it is changing the tone of the next paragraph
the long and short of it is its probably E
I'm still taking the test so I don't know how right this is.

Which sentence most accurately states the cumulative impact of Lincoln's use of the word dedicate? A. The repetition of the word prompts listeners to think about those killed in the war, which will help them remember his other points. B. The context of each use moves its meaning from the general to the individual, making listeners realize the importance of settling the country's conflict. C. Each use links historical events to the current events, which would help listeners to see that the past plays a large part in the present. D. Each use adds to the lyrical quality of Lincoln's rhetorical style, making the speech worthy of committing to memory.
Answer:
B. The context of each use moves its meaning from the general to the individual, making listeners realize the importance of settling the country's conflict.
Explanation:
To complete this exercise, you have to read Abraham Lincoln's speech “The Gettysburg Address” and then select the correct option, which is "b" because Lincoln starts talking about how "our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal" and then he continues using the word but now he focuses on "us", his listeners: "It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work (...)". He finishes his speech saying that those fathers shall not have died in vain, which is one of the reasons he gives to talk about the importance of settling the country's conflict.
will give brainliest write a General description of setting in the story the black cat by Edgar Allan Poe
Answer:
The narrator of "The Black Cat" begins by saying that we probably won’t believe what he is about to tell us. But he assures us that he is not mad, and because he is about to die the next day, he wants to recount to us these “household events” that have caused so much terror. He suspects that to some people, the events will seem commonplace, and their horror will be explained away with logic and science.
The narrator of "The Black Cat" tells us of his boyhood, which was easy. He had a particular love of animals and had a lot of pets and this love only increased into adulthood. He thinks there is something in the loyalty and unselfishness of a dog that you can’t get from a man. But the narrator did marry, and was lucky to find a wife who appreciated his love of pets, and filled their house with a host of them, including a black cat.
This cat was unusually large and intelligent. The narrator of "The Black Cat" remembers how his wife used to talk about the superstition that black cats are all witches in disguise, but he assures us that this is unimportant to the story. He just remembers the detail. Anyway, the cat’s name was Pluto and became a favorite of the narrator, following him everywhere. This special bond lasted several years.

4 The author claims that there is a problem with the current labeling on food products. Which choice best summarizes this claim? F Manufacturers don't want to comply with new label guidelines for their "party size" foods. G Manufacturers don't want to add new labels based on package size. H The labels' recommended serving sizes don't match what consumers actually eat. J The dual-column format is required if a package contain at least two times the reference amount.
Answer:
H). The labels' recommended serving sizes don't match what consumers actually eat.
Explanation:
The third option i.e. 'the labels' recommended serving sizes don't match what consumers actually eat' most aptly sums up the author's claim of having the trouble with current labelling system on food products. It suggests that the errors in serving sizes displayed on the current labels as it doesn't actually match the portions that people consume in reality. Thus, this signifies the flaw in labelling and hence, option H is the correct answer.

1. Identify Jacobs use of literary allusions to heighten suspense and fear in the reader.
2. Why does Jacobs suppress information about the third and final wish? What was the effect of this omission on the reader?
Explanation:
The author creates suspense by setting the story on a stormy night. He also incorporates a chess game, which is a metaphor for suspense, because chess is a suspenseful game. Without, the night was cold and wet, but in the small parlour of Laburnam Villa the blinds were drawn and the fire burned brightly.

What do you think John Clare is saying about a person’s purpose in the world? Use specific examples from the poem to support your claim.
I Am!
By John Clare
I am—yet what I am none cares or knows;
My friends forsake me like a memory lost:
I am the self-consumer of my woes—
They rise and vanish in oblivious host,
Like shadows in love’s frenzied stifled throes
And yet I am, and live—like vapours tossed
Into the nothingness of scorn and noise,
Into the living sea of waking dreams,
Where there is neither sense of life or joys,
But the vast shipwreck of my life’s esteems;
Even the dearest that I loved the best
Are strange—nay, rather, stranger than the rest.
I long for scenes where man hath never trod
A place where woman never smiled or wept
There to abide with my Creator, God,
And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Untroubling and untroubled where I lie
The grass below—above the vaulted sky.

What is Lincoln’s main idea in his speech?
Answer:
(This is the sample answer so you would want to re-word it!)
Lincoln begins by trying to convince Southerners that they shouldn’t be worried about his presidency. The main idea of Lincoln’s speech, however, seems to be the constitutionality of the secession of the Southern states. Most of his speech is spent discussing this topic. This excerpt is a good example:
I hold that, in contemplation of universal law and of the Constitution, the Union of these States is perpetual. Perpetuity is implied, if not expressed, in the fundamental law of all national governments. It is safe to assert that no government proper ever had a provision in its organic law for its own termination. Continue to execute all the express provisions of our National Constitution, and the Union will endure forever—it being impossible to destroy it except by some action not provided for in the instrument itself.
