Why did Grant say, “Still, I was there.”?
From A lesson before dying
Answer:
What the narrator is talking about is the murder trial of a man named Jefferson. When the narrator, Grant Wiggins, says that even though he never attended the trial he was there all the same, he is setting a tone of futility and hopelessness that will be felt throughout the novel.
In which sentence is the word with a prefix spelled incorrectly? His puppy has been acting unruly all day. The results of the study exceeded our hopes. Please discard the wrapper in the nearest trashcan. This antique is ireplaceable.
Answer:
The sentence in which the word with a prefix is spelled incorrectly is:
D. This antique is ireplaceable.
Explanation:
The word "irreplaceable" should be spelled with two "r". It is composed of an assimilated form of the prefix "in-", which means "not, the opposite of" and the word "replaceable". The change in the prefix from in- to -ir might be due to cacophony-related reasons, ir- sounding better or being more easily pronounced than -in. Anyhow, the correct spelling doubles the "r", and that is why letter D is the sentence that contains a prefix spelled incorrectly.

Which supporting detail is most helpful in determining whether the author's purpose is to inform, explain, persuade, inspire, or entertain? Just try not to laugh as I tell you about the time I made my sister a birthday cake! I'm not the greatest baker, but I was following a recipe. I mixed everything together just right and poured the batter into the pan. Then I placed it in the oven and set the temperature to 400 degrees, just like the directions said. Exactly 18 minutes later, I pulled out the beautiful cake and frosted it. Everything was perfect until my sister cut into the cake. As she removed the first slice, uncooked batter oozed out from the middle of the cake. Guests looked at me with a mixture of shock and amusement. That's when I learned an important lesson about preheating the oven. We had fun retelling the story over ice cream sundaes at the shop down the street. A. Exactly 18 minutes later, I pulled out the beautiful cake... B. Guests looked at me with a mixture of shock and amusement. OC. I was following a recipe. O D. Everything was perfect...

In this task, you’ll write three diary entries. As you write, please keep in mind the elements of diary writing. You will probably have to do some research into some of the diary entry topics in order to fully understand them.
First, choose any three topics from the six listed below:
Think about your biggest pet peeve and write an entry explaining what that pet peeve is and why it bothers you.
Who do you believe is the most fascinating famous person? The individual you choose can be living or dead. Write an entry explaining who this person is and why you think they are fascinating.
The author Mark Twain once said, "Humor is tragedy plus time." Keeping in mind what you know about the words humor and tragedy, write an entry explaining what this quote may mean. In your entry, use an example from your life to support your explanation.
Has there ever been a time in your life when you felt invisible? Think of this time and write an entry explaining what happened to make you feel this way and how you dealt with the feeling.
Many people believe that it is important to find ways to pay it forward in their daily lives. Think about what “pay it forward” means. Write an entry explaining what you believe this expression means and provide an example of this practice that you have witnessed.
Think about a time in your life when you had to deal with adversity. Write an entry explaining the situation. In the entry, explain how the situation made you feel and how you overcame those feelings.
Answer:
Dear diary,
I know I haven't written in you for awhile, but I've been busy with school. I had a really cool teacher this year that helped me through US History. Okay, it took a bit of energy and yeah maybe it wasn't personally fun fighting with myself to remember answers, but he had a game that helped me practice and beat the tests and quizes. At the time I was in class he waited until everyone was done with notes and gave us a free 100% for every chapter notes we finished. He helped everyone and got them finished in time.
I hope I have this teacher again next year.
Dear diary,
I have many pet peeves...
- People who can’t FREAKIN cover themselves when they sneeze or cough!
- People who interrupt when I am speaking
- Slow Walkers
- Rude/Slow drivers
- Know-it-all’s
- Someone leaving the water running and same goes for lights
- People who talk while their mouth is full
And that’s all I could think of..and these bother me because they just do. Like it’s rude, unhygienic, and not environmentally friendly.
Explanation:
Answer:
Entry 1.
Today was a really irking day for me as my best friend Camryn just scratched up my chalkboard. It really makes me feel irritated and really frustrating. Yet, she is my best friend so I couldn't say much about the feeling to her. Whenever someone scratches the chalkboard and particularly mine it makes me cringe a lot and I even cry out of irritation. That's my biggest pet peeve that I cringe for. I feel as if I am going to itch. When Camryn left, I kept myself calm for sometime but I couldn't stop myself from drawing random stuff on my board and getting annoyed. But when I thought of what I've done over and over again, I thought that there's nothing much to really cringe for and I thought I must change this habit. I kept scratching my board with my ruler, paper knife and other objects and after a couple of minutes, I felt fine and happy.
Entry 2-
Today my mom and I were in the McDonalds drive through when we pulled up to the window to pay and we were told “The person in front of you paid for your meal”. My mom thought that was sweet so she decided to pay it forward and pay for the people behind us. The situation made me think of what paying it forward really means. The true meaning of pay it forward is an expression for when the recipient of an act of kindness does something kind for someone else rather than simply accepting or repaying the original good deed. I feel that everyone should always do good deeds for others and when receiving a good deed they should pay the kindness forward, it would make our world a much kinder place.
Entry 3-
Yesterday I was playing in my senior homecoming basketball game when I took a wrong step and couldn't bear to walk anymore.The athletics team rushed out to me and I was carried off of the court. Eventually I was put in the ambulance and taken to our local hospital where I found out I had tore my ACL. I got to come home early this morning and I got the news that I wouldn't be able to play the rest of my senior year as an ACL injury will take at least 6 months to heal. I was very upset, my last year playing high school basketball had been cut short and this injury would affect my scholarship.I was currently facing adversity. To deal with this adversity I started surrounding myself with positive people, sitting outside and being in nature for fresh air, and I write a lot in my journal to get my thoughts out. All of this has made me feel much better.

Which sentence is in passive voice?
A.
The sun beat down on the thirsty travelers.
B.
Carla went to the supermarket to get some supplies.
C.
Jason baked a cake for his brother.
D.
These cookies will be eaten by my neighbor’s kids.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Answer:
D
Explanation:
A passive sentence is when the subject of the sentence is acted on by the verb. That means it hasn't happened yet. "A: would be correct if it was "The sun WILL beat down on the thirsty travelers."
"B" would be correct if it was "Carla WILL go to the supermarket to get some supplies."
"C" would be correct if it was "Jason WILL bake a cake for his brother."
But because none of them (except D, of course) have a "will" in them, "D" is the correct answer.
Hope this helps! :)

The line in paragraph 2 that reads “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men and women are created equal . . . ” is a(n)
A.
metaphor
B.
analogy
C.
maxim
D.
myth
E.
anecdote
Answer:
C. Maxim
Explanation:
By definition, MAXIM: A succinct formulation of a fundamental principle or general truth.
It couldn't be a metaphor or an analogy, and it wouldn't be a myth. While some might think it could be an anecdote, an anecdote is a brief account of an event, usually intended to entertain, to explain an idea, and to reveal personality through a person’s actions. Obviously this doesn't apply, so it would have to be maxim.

As opposed to the rest of the book, which is written from Victor Frankenstein's perspective, this excerpt takes place from the monster's point of view. Knowing this, what effect does this change likely have on the text?
Answer:
This change humanizes the monster and gives us a vision of how the monster feels and thinks about everything that is happening.
Explanation:
While reading "Frankenstein" we are presented the story from the point of view of Victor Frankenstein, who sees the monster as a cruel and terrible creature, which causes pain and suffering wherever it goes, in the name of selfishness, evil and insanity you have. Thus, when we see the monster from the perspective of Victos, we see the monster as something cruel and without feelings.
However, when the narration changes to the monster's point of view, we can understand his longings, feelings and elements of his personality to act the way he does. In this way, we have a humanistic view of the monster and we can and understand the complexity and depth of the character.
Answer:
This change humanizes the monster and gives us a vision of how the monster feels and thinks about everything that is happening.

Write a paragraph analyzing how Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. uses argument techniques to achieve his purpose in his I have a dream speech
.
Answer: Dr. King's dream of equality has not been achieved in education. There is still a difference between the number of African Americans who receive high school diplomas and the number of whites who do. According to the US Census Bureau, in 2000, only 72 percent of African Americans had diplomas while about 83 percent of whites did. Even though some might say the difference between the two groups is not as big as it was in the 1960s, there is still a difference. Closer is not the same as equal. Because the groups do not have equal percentages, King's dream of equality has not actually been achieved.

about Lucille Ball and
Sarah, I just read this great
the author was Sam Smith.
O biography
O autobiography
O historical fiction
O science fiction
The correct answer is Biography
Explanation:
Non-fictional texts that focus on the life and experiences of a person are known as biographies. Moreover, these texts are classified as autobiographies if the author and the person described in the text is the same or as biographies if the author of the text is different. The text Sarah read can be classified as a biography because the main topic of it was the life of a person (Lucille Ball) but it was not Lucille Ball the one who wrote it.

A map grid Text to speech A:A. Indicates cardinal and intermediate directions on a map. B:B. Helps you find specific locations on a map by means of a code. C:C. Explains the symbols that are used on the map. D:D. Describes the area shown on the map and identifies the map's topic.
Answer:
A:A. Indicates cardinal and intermediate directions on a map.
Explanation:
A map grid is a set of horizontal and vertical lines that are drawn over a map and represent the cardinal directions (north, south, east, west). These lines are very useful for the work of geologists and cartologists because it allows certain regions to be found using the lines as a reference. For this, it is necessary to find a point on the map, which is the location that is referenced, locate the lines closest to that point and calculate the "square" formed between them.

11. Name a fictional character who could be described as taciturn. Why would you describe
them this way?
Answer:
Chewbacca from Star Wars
Explanation:
Chewbacca could be described as a taciturn character because he does not talk much in the movies other than to express a war cry here and there. In the movies, you could see that Chewbacca has little to no lines, but still is a memorable character in the movies because he is always around protagonists like Han Solo or Luke Skywalker fighting against the Dark side. Besides that, it only seems that only Solo could understand what it is he says since they've been together since the beginning of time.
