Hey there!
In the Prologue of the novel, Steve Harmon comments that he feels like he has walked into a movie. He describes his experience as a strange movie with no plot or beginning. Steve says the movie is in black and white with odd camera angles that make it difficult to understand what is actually happening. Steve goes on to comment that the movie is not about jail, but rather how he feels alone and scared all the time. Steve then explains how he has decided to record his experience of being on trial by writing a screenplay to a movie that he will title "Monster." Throughout the novel, Steve narrates the story in the form of a film script. He not only describes the trial, but also his inner thoughts and experience living in jail.

Who is the story about? Who else is included in the story? Why does the main character act a certain way? the story is: "A Retrieved Reformation"
Answer:
This story is set in the American Midwest during the early 1900s.
Jimmy Valentine is a skilled safe-cracker and does time in prison. He is allowed to go back into society when he is paroled. The main characters are as follows: Jimmy Valentine, Mike Dolan - his partner in crime, Jimmy's love of his life - Annabel Adams. Annabel's family is also a part of the story.
In the beginning, the warden reminds Jimmy that he is not a bad person, just that he has a bad habit of cracking safes. He goes to his friends - which is in a hotel - and finds his stashed tools that he used to use to crack safes. Jimmy wants to rob another bank, but he sees a girl and falls in love. Yep, that quick! He lies about his name and is accepted into his love's family. Would you believe that Annabel is the banker's daughter??? Story goes on as Agatha is locked in the safe. She is going to run out of air and die. Oh, but who will be able to save her?
This story is really about how a person can change - but how Jimmy - who wanted to change, has his past catch up with him. He starts robbing again. Love can change people. The irony in the story is that he is able to forget that he is a robber/burgler - due to the love of Annabel. But, remember that she is the banker's daughter and this puts Jimmy right where he can rob again.
Hope this helps.

Which passages from The Education of a Young Chief best show that an important aspect of the narrator’s culture is to think of the needs of others in the community before one’s own needs? Select all that apply. The Education of a Young Chief
“If you reverence the aged, many will be glad to hear of your name,” were the words of my father. “The poor man will say to his children, ‘my children, let us go to him, for he is a great hunter, and is kind to the poor; he will not turn us away empty.
’” Many a lecture I received when the deer lay bleeding at the feet of my father; he would give me an account of the nobleness of the hunter’s deeds, and said that I should never be in want whenever there was any game …
The Indians, as has just been said, once had a custom, which is now done away, of making a great feast of the first deer that a young hunter caught; the young hunter, however, was not to partake of any of it, but wait upon the others.
“We have only one custom among us, and that is well known to all; this river and all that is in it are mine. I have come up the river behind you, and you appear to have killed all before you. This is mine, and this is mine.”
Answer:
The correct answers are:
“If you reverence the aged, many will be glad to hear of your name,” were the words of my father. “The poor man will say to his children, ‘my children, let us go to him, for he is a great hunter, and is kind to the poor; he will not turn us away empty.The Indians, as has just been said, once had a custom, which is now done away, of making a great feast of the first deer that a young hunter caught; the young hunter, however, was not to partake of any of it, but wait upon the others.
Explanation:
As we can see in these passages, the narrator thinks of the needs of others in the community before his own.
We can see how he speaks of the elderly, the poor and his kindness towards them, as well as with the Indians, where he speaks that he had to wait for others before participating in anything.
These are clues that show us that these passages contain the correct answers.

Which part of the passage reflects the climax? Ellie took pride in her archery skills. Among the 40 members of Greenville School's Archery Club, she was the only one who could hit a target 50 meters away. During the second term, a new student, Ripley, joined the archery club. On her first day, Ripley proved that she was just as good as Ellie. The instructor even believed that she could perform better than Ellie. Gradually, Ripley took over Ellie's position as the top archer of the school. As a result, Ellie lost a lot of friends who wanted to hang out with the new star archer. Finally, the day of the state archery tournament arrived. As expected, Ripley quickly climbed the scoreboards; Ellie followed closely behind. However, no one realized that Ellie had secretly been practicing for the final 50-meter round. When the final round was over, everyone was astonished. Ellie had struck a perfect bull’s-eye on all five attempts. She was the state champion! Everyone rushed to congratulate Ellie on her victory. She walked over to her rival, who was standing alone in a corner. Ellie took Ripley's hand and thanked her. If it had not been for her, Ellie would have never trained so hard. Over the next several years, Ellie and Ripley continued their rivalry. But when they were not on the field, they were the best of friends.

Explanation:
Nights and Dragons— From the memoir of author Abigail Prynne 1 I sit at my desk listening to thunder growl outside my window. Flashes of light burst through the darkness, and wind races past my window. The thrilling combination of sight and sound conjures up visions of dragons roaring proudly, breathing fire, and soaring across the midnight sky. Dragons first fascinated me when I was a little girl. They have followed me ever since. The magnificent creatures appeared in storybooks I read in the library, paintings I saw in museums, movies I watched in the theater, and the dreams I had in my sleep. By the time I was thirteen, one question consumed me. I wanted to know if dragons ever existed, so I set out on a quest for facts. 2 As I started my research, I discovered many skeptics. Scientists presented evidence to show why dragons could not—and did not—exist. They explained that it would be impossible for dragons to fly because they would be too big. They laughed at the idea of dragons breathing fire. They pointed out that no other animal has ever done this. They said that if dragons had lived, someone would have found remains somewhere in the world. No bones about it, there were plenty of logical explanations. It would have been easy for me to accept that the only place dragons ever existed was in the imaginations of those who believed. 3 I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother. She always told me that "people who believe that science is the answer to everything are missing out on everything else." With her words in mind, I searched some more. There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed. 4 With renewed hope that there was some truth to the legends, I looked for new research. I found that some experts disagreed with popular arguments against dragons. They suggested that a dragon could have four stomachs like a cow. If it created stomach gases like birds, it might create enough to lift itself off the ground. This would give it the ability to fly. If it forced out air when diving toward the earth, it might release gases which could ignite into flame. When the animal died, the stomachs would release strong acids that would dissolve its dead body over time. Biologists backed up these ideas with sketches and models based on known animals. Not everyone agreed with these ideas, but many of the things we accept about dinosaurs and other extinct species started the same way. 5 I doubt we will ever truly know whether dragons existed. There may always be two sides to the fiery debate. Some will say the stories come from active imaginations. Some will believe with all their hearts that the legendary creatures roamed our ancient world. I don't know for certain which side to believe, but the sound and fury of a night like this makes me smile. It rekindles my childhood dreams and keeps the exciting possibility alive. Which sentence from paragraph 4 makes an explicit statement without offering any implicit suggestions? With renewed hope that there was some truth to the legends, I looked for new research. If it created stomach gases like birds, it might create enough to lift itself off the ground. Biologists backed up these ideas with sketches and models based on known animals.
Answer:
1The main idea would be "Scientists have lots of evidence to explain why dragons don't exist."
2. Emphasized by the evidence and word choice related to scientific evidence
3. The main idea would be "I have always wondered if dragons existed, and I hope they did."
4. Displayed through the author's nature of questioning and evaluating different kinds of evidence and ideas.

What is one example of real-life government control that is like the type of control in the book “Matched” by Ally Condie?
To be honest, the government control in "Matched" is pretty unrealistic and it's pretty strict. I don't really think there are any real-life examples of this government control type but...
In "Matched"; you have to die at 80, your husband/wife is chosen by the "matching machine" (I forgot what it is called), you are given three pills (which the red one you must take if instructed and you can't take if they don't say so. If you don't do what they say, you will be punished. You can't really choose your life, and the things you can decide, your not ever allowed to change.
I don't really know any real-life examples of this but I heard that some Asian parents choose who you marry and you have to act like their your queen or king. If you disobey they will probably throw you out of the house.
Yeah but the government control type in the book "Matched" is really strict, and you don't have a lot of freedom.
