Read the following paragraph from the section "The White House Was Built By Slave Labor."
George Washington's political behavior did not truly reflect his supposed antislavery views. While professing to despise slavery and hope for its eventual end, President Washington took no real steps in that direction. In fact, he did everything he could to ensure that none of the more than 300 people he owned could secure their freedom. During the 10 years of construction of the White House, George Washington spent time in Philadelphia where a law called the Gradual Abolition Act passed in 1780. It stated that any slaves brought into the state were eligible to apply for their freedom if they were there for longer than six months. To get around the law, Washington rotated the people working for him in bondage so that they were there for less than six months each.
Which idea is BEST supported by this paragraph?
A
George Washington eventually freed all of the enslaved people who worked for him in the White House.
B
George Washington was a big supporter of the Gradual Abolition Act and adhered to its rules.
C
George Washington changed his mind about slavery while president and joined the abolitionist cause.
D
George Washington took many actions that contradicted his stated opinions about slavery.

Answer:
The phrase which best describes the context of a speech is:
C. the energy in the auditorium.
Explanation:
The other options refer more to the speech itself than to the context in which it is given. However, the energy in the auditorium or, in other words, the audience's attitude is deeply connected to the speech's context. No matter how much the speaker has prepared - how he has chosen to phrase his ideas, how he divided the speech into sections, which facts he has chosen to present -, the way the audience behaves and reacts to the speech, or even the audience's attitude before the speech starts - are they restless? hungry? relaxed? - all have the ability the impact the speech and how successful it is.
Answer:
C. The energy in the auditorium

Describe what a Jewish family's experience of trying to escape the Nazis might have been like. Use evidence from the text to support your answer.
Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
There are several works and reports about Jewish families that tried to escape from the Nazis. All the reports show that this was not a pleasant experience, as it was full of fear and despair, for not knowing what would happen if they were discovered, nor if they would be able to survive. In "Maus," a biography of a Jew who tried to escape the Nazi with his wife, we can see that many Jews tried to bribe and pay people who could protect them, or just facilitate their escape, but even with high payments, fear reigned , because nobody was trustworthy and the Jews were in a very complicated situation. Still in this work, we can see families that hid in unsightly places and with a very low quality of life. Regarding hiding places, we can see in "The Diary of Anne Frank" how the Jewish families who managed to hide, went through a severe process of psychological terror and had no idea when it would end.

Which sentence in this excerpt shows that Tom county it's not satisfied with being a mock pretend prince
Answer:
One January day, on his usual begging tour, he tramped despondently up and down the region round about Mincing Lane and Little East Cheap, hour after hour, bare-footed and cold, looking in at cook-shop windows and longing for the dreadful pork-pies and other deadly inventions displayed there—for to him these were dainties fit for the angels; that is, judging by the smell, they were—for it had never been his good luck to own and eat one.
Explanation:
The above sentence found in the excerpt shows that Tom County was not satisfied with simply being a pretend prince. He longed for other things such as good food and some of the pastries he found at the cook-shop windows.
Even after his wishful memories of being a prince, Tom will still go out to beg for food and also look longingly at some of those pies he believed were meant for angels and not humans like him. This detail from the text shows that Tom wished for other things apart from being a mock prince.

Most people attribute the changes in society of the last 10-15 years to the Internet. In doing
so they fail to give enough credit to cell phones and other portable communication devices.
Such technological devices have "fractured" society not by driving wedges between people, but
by allowing people to drive wedges between themselves.
Before cell phones and other portable communication devices, people could not
communicate at a distance as freely as they do today. Friends who chose to go to different
colleges would communicate through letters and infrequent phone calls. Upon arriving at
college, they found that they could not rely on old friends to be there all the time, and because
of this, they attempted to make new friends. Today, these same people do not have to seek out
new friends because they can communicate instantly with old friends across great distances
through phone calls and text messages. As a result, they meet fewer new people and spend
less time outside of the world in which they feel comfortable.
The fractures that we see in today's society are a direct result of this kind of change.
Technology gives people the option of not exploring the worlds that exist outside of their daily
lives, interests, and closest friends. Far too many people choose that option.
5. Which sentence from the article above best supports the idea that technology can be harmful?
A. "Upon arriving at college, they found that they could not rely on old friends to be there all the
time, and because of this, they attempted to make new friends."
B. "Before cell phones and other portable communication devices, people could not communicate
at a distance as freely as they do today."
C. "Today, these same people do not have to seek out new friends because they can communicate
instantly with old friends across great distances through phone calls and text messages."
D. "These devices have 'fractured' society not by driving wedges between people, but by allowing
people to drive wedges between themselves."
