HURRY!!! Which words contribute most to the excerpt’s pace? ""imaginary"" and ""aside"" ""sash"" and ""swords"" ""slashing"" and ""lunged"" ""Goeman"" and ""Manjiro""
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai. Goemon jumped up. "Agreed," he said, jamming his "knife" into his sash and slashing at Manjiro’s "sword." Their imaginary swords clashed and clattered as they lunged or leaped aside to avoid being hit. Which words contribute most to the excerpt’s pace?
A. "imaginary" and "aside"
B. "sash" and "swords"
C. "slashing" and "lunged"
D. "Goeman" and "Manjiro"
Answer:
The words that contribute most to the excerpt's pace are C. "slashing" and "lunged".
Explanation:
When we think of pace, we think of rhythm, of moving fast, slow, with regularity, with cadence, etc. The words an author uses help readers feel the pace of what is being described more intensely. If the characters are acting or moving fast, or if conflicts are developing slowly, the only way for readers to visualize that is through the author's word-choice. In the case of the excerpt we are studying here, we can say the writer establishes a fast pace through the use of the words "slashing" and "lunged". Both words imply rapidity of movement, celerity, quickness and, for that reason, has the readers imagining the scene in a vivid, accelerated manner.

Why is the cake important in this part of the scene (Act 1)?
What things does it reveal about events that have gone on
"off stage as well as what does it reveal about the
characters?
This question refers to the play "The Diary of Anne Frank." In this play, we learn about a cake that Miep and Mr. Kraler have brought to the annex, where Anne and her family are hiding. The cake reads "Peace in 1944."
The cake is significant because of the way in which it reveals the hidden tensions between the characters. We learn that the characters are initially happy to receive the cake, but that conflict begins soon after. Mr. Dussel believes that Mrs. Van Daan gives her husband a larger piece, while Mr. Van Daan does not want to give Margot cake. This reveals that problems are becoming more serious in the annex, and that tensions are high. It also shows that some characters, such as Mr. Van Daan, are quite selfish and greedy.

4. On pages 23 and 24, Katie says:
“Last night I dreamed of a big wave, like this sculpture I saw a couple of years ago at the Rodin Museum when we took a trip to Paris for my parents’ 15th anniversary.”
“Back upstairs, I take out a photo of me and my parents in Paris. I stuck it under my mattress when the glass in the frame broke in the earthquake.”
“. . . a row of sharpened pencils, a stapler, a ruler, a silver Eiffel Tower paperweight she bought from a souvenir shop in Paris.”
Why does Katie mention Paris so often? What do you think it represents to her?
Answer: not exact, but the reason why Katie mentions Paris so often is probably where she was born. What it means to her may be family or culture.
Explanation:
I don’t know this story very well, but writers commonly use repetition to get a point out there. for example: in Danganronpa V3, Kokichi *constantly* lies, and everyone knows that. repetition can make the fact that he is a liar more clearer. with more analyzation, it could also get Kokichi’s view out there, especially HIS view on lying.
Apply this to Katie, she mentions Paris a lot. she talks about her family and certain events too, she even have souvenirs. We can infer that her parents were born in Paris, or that she was born there as well. What this means to her is that Paris symbolizes family to her.
This is just my interpretation though!

Country’s growth depends upon the skills of the people and the application of knowledge, inherited or acquired by them. The people living in slums don’t have basic facilities like - food, shelter & clothing. They only dream to be educated. The major cause is illiteracy but above all lack of job opportunities in rural areas force these people to migrate from rural to urban areas to earn their livelihood. Thereby many of them land up living in slums. Even if the government gives them houses to live. Many are unaware, a few rent these houses & earn the money & there are some who fight to get the allotted facilities due to corruption in India.
*All this quadruples the problems faced by these people
*Solutions
*Stephen spender in the poem ‘The elementary school in a slum’ talks about the importance of education in our lives.*
