Answer:

D. To generate new ideas

Explanation:

Read the excerpt from "The Royal House of Thebes."
Antigone and Ismene heard with horror what Creon had
decided. To Ismene, shocking as it was, overwhelming
her with anguish for the pitiful dead body and the
lonely, homeless soul, it seemed, nevertheless, that
nothing could be done except to acquiesce [to accept
without protest]. She and Antigone were utterly alone.
All Thebes was exulting that the man who had brought
war upon them should be thus terribly punished. "We
are women," she told her sister. "We must obey. We
have no strength to defy the State." "Choose your own
part," Antigone said. "I go to bury the brother I love."
"You are not strong enough," Ismene cried. "Why, then
when my strength fails, " Antigone answered, "I will give
up." She left her sister, Ismene dared not follow her.
How does Antigone's action as a rebel reveal the
universal theme?
It shows that she is tired of being alone, revealing
that loneliness is difficult for people to handle.
It shows that she can break the rules for her
principles, revealing that women are as capable as
men.
It shows that she does not side with her sister,
revealing that families should stick together.
It shows that she pities Ismene, revealing that
understanding leads to right action.

"Time had not been kind to the abandoned farm. No one had looked after the place for years. Once their parents
died, the kids had drifted off to city jobs, one by one. The walls of the old barn sagged inward. Crisp red had
dimmed to pale pink. Wild daisies poked their heads through the broken windows of a rusting pickup. The
windmill still turned in the dry breeze but most of the blades had long since fallen off."

Katherine Johnson reached for the stars long before she helped send humans into space. Born on August 26, 1918 in West Virginia, Johnson had a gift for numbers. As Johnson later described, she spent her life counting—counting the steps she walked, the dishes she washed. “Anything that could be counted, I did,” she once said. School came easily for Johnson, and she completed eighth grade by the age of 10. After that, she couldn’t continue learning locally because her county denied African American students access to secondary education. Johnson’s father, Joshua, moved the family 120 miles away so she could attend high school. By 18, she graduated with honors from West Virginia State College, receiving degrees in mathematics and French. She then went on to teach these subjects at a public school. After teaching for many years, one job posting changed the arc of her life. The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) was looking to hire women to fill unique positions. The job title: Computer. Based at Langley Research Center, these “human calculators” checked the math done by NACA’s male engineers and mathematicians. Johnson’s sharp intellect and resourcefulness were quickly recognized at Langley; she was promoted after only two weeks. Nonetheless, Johnson faced barriers at the agency. At the time, many workplaces weren’t integrated, and Johnson and her African American colleagues were segregated within an area of Langley named “West Computers”. Regardless, she steadfastly asked questions and made her voice heard. In 1958, NACA began to focus more on space travel, and the agency was newly dubbed the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Johnson’s career flourished at NASA. In 1961, Johnson plotted astronaut Alan Shepard’s path into space. Then in 1962, Johnson helped astronaut John Glenn to be the first American to orbit the Earth. Even though NASA had started using electronic computers, Johnson was the one to double-check the machines’ calculations before blast-off. Additionally, Johnson contributed to Apollo 11’s milestone 1969 moon landing. She also helped Apollo 13 return safely home after an equipment malfunction. Later in her career, Johnson worked on calculations for NASA’s space shuttles and satellites. Even with such stellar contributions, many people in America didn’t know Johnson’s name until long after her retirement. In 2016, writer Margot Lee Shetterly published Hidden Figures, a chronicle of Johnson and two of her fellow mathematicians’ work at NASA. Later that year, shetterly’s bestselling book was turned into a movie of the same name. Finally, the whole world saw the magnificent trajectory of Katherine Johnson’s career. Read the excerpt. “Even with such stellar contributions, many people in America didn’t know Johnson’s name until long after her retirement. In 2016, writer Margot Lee Shetterly published Hidden Figures, a chronicle of Johnson and two of her fellow mathematicians’ work at NASA.” Choose the two synonyms that have the same meaning as the word figures as it’s used in the title of Shetterly’s book.
