Which of the following statements about motivation is best supported by the selection from the Point essay below (paragraph 10)?

The philosophy of Lehman Alternative Community School in Ithaca, New York, is to encourage “students to use freedom responsibly, and to make educational choices appropriate to their individual levels of development.” LACS long ago got rid of gold stars, stickers, and even most grades in favor of intrinsic motivation. At an All School Meeting every week, students make decisions on issues facing the school. They make choices about their courses of study and reflect on their learning and achievement. They complete community projects and take trips outside the classroom.
Answer choices for the above question

A. Choice and intellectual freedom inspire a sense of investment in learning.

B. Students are only motivated if they get to do whatever they want.

C. Community projects help students see how lucky they are which fosters their motivation to do well in school.

D. Students will be motivated to learn if they don’t have to worry about grades.

Answers

Answer 1

The statement about motivation that is best supported by the selection is the following:

A. Choice and intellectual freedom inspire a sense of investment in learning.

According to the passage, at the LACS, students are motivated in a different way.Instead of worrying about grades, they are allowed to make their own choices.Since they are free to choose and to make decisions about their courses, they have the chance to reflect on their learning.By realizing learning is their own responsibility, they develop a sense of investment in it.Therefore, the best option is letter A. It is the only statement that mentions the choices and the freedom students experience at the LACS.

A.

B.

C.

D.

E.
anecdote

Answers

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.

How does Stephen King make a comment about religion through his fictional story Man in the Black Suit?

Answers

The Man in the Black Suit" is a horror short story by American writer Stephen King. It was originally published in the October 31, 1994 issue of The New Yorker magazine. In 1995, it won the World Fantasy Award and the O. Henry Award for Best Short Fiction. In 1997, it was published in the limited-edition collection Six Stories. In 2002, it was included in King's collection Everything's Eventual. King described the piece as an homage to Nathaniel Hawthorne's story "Young Goodman Brown". He also states that the story evolved from one his friend told him, in which the friend's grandfather had come face to face with Satan himself in the form of an ordinary man. It was adapted into a short film, with the same title, in 2004 by Nicholas Mariani.

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.

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 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.

C.

D.

Answers

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.

A study published earlier this month suggests that, in addition to making us feel connected with others, all those hugs may have prevented us from getting sick. At first, this finding probably seems counterintuitive (not to mention bizarre). You might think, like I did, that hugging hundreds of strangers would increase your exposure to germs and therefore the likelihood of falling ill. But the new research out of Carnegie Mellon indicates that feeling connected to others, especially through physical touch, protects us from stress-induced sickness. This research adds to a large amount of evidence for the positive influence of social support on health.

ln the second paragraph, the author implies that the study shows hugs to be

A) the only proven method of preventing sickness.

B) less successful than social support in protecting people from colds and other illnesses.

C) not conclusively effective at helping people maintain good health.

D) one of several ways to guard against some illnesses.

What kind of evidence would a reader use to make inferences and draw conclusions about themes and central ideas in a narrative? You can pick more than one option. 1. Characters' speech and behavior 2. Major events in the narrative 3. The author's word choices and descriptive details 4. Facts about the author's life

Answers

Answer:

2. Major events in the narrative.

3. The author's word choices and descriptive details.

Explanation:

Making an inference is to conclude by reading "between the lines". The author does not directly state anything but there are some clues that a reader can know and infer from, making it possible for us to think beyond the text.

A reader possesses the ability to make inferences while reading the story/ text. The text may or may not include direct references to what is happening but at the same time, contains some hints that make it possible for the reader to think beyond the actual words. This can be found in the major events that the narrative contains and also from the word choices of the author and the descriptive details.

Thus, the correct answers are options 2 and 3.

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?

Answers

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.

Mama escapes her sister's question, but then she describes the look of her daughter, as the narrator does.

I look around the market trying to see what I should buy when I come around a table with “magic Items.” Now I’m 16 I know that magic isn’t real, but I couldn’t help myself. I felt drawn to one particular object or paw I should say. I could see the merchant looking at me to the monkey's paw. I felt ridiculous asking this but I wanted to know: “What does this do? As in like magic? “Ah this is a rare artifact only known as the wisher curse.” Everyone who has ever owned it-” he stops. “Everyone who has ever owned it will get 3 happy wishes, and live happily ever after.” he smiled. “So there is a genie in there?” I asked. No, there is not, but I will give it to you for 50 euros if you want. I thought about it, and 50 euros for a monkey's paw? I wanted to say no, but then the merchant lowered the price to 15 euros. I agreed and he gave me a bag for the monkey's paw and I paid him some of my work money. Not exactly how I thought I would spend my money, I thought. Before I left the merchant whispered something to his employee: “She doesn’t even know half of it.” but before I could ask what that meant my phone rang and my mom was calling, probably to ask where in the world am I. When I got home the first thing I did was go directly to my room and lock my door. I slid down to my soft carpet and opened my bag to where the monkey's paw layed. I grabbed it and held it into my hands and examined it very closely. Before I could even make a “wish” my mom banged on my door. “Ayán! Unlock your door! I sighed and wished she would just leave me alone for once. I unlocked the door and expected her to be there in her pajamas and have a look that could kill anyone. I opened the door but she was nowhere to be found. “Mom!” I yelled. No answer. I left my room and looked at our apartment. I looked in her room, no one. I looked in the bathroom, the kitchen, the closet, the tiny hallway, she wasn’t there! She was just there, I thought! I gasped the monkey's paw! I still had it in my hand without realizing. I thought back to what could have made my mom disappear. It's not like I said I wished for her to disappear I only said just to leave me alone. Wait another word for leave is to disappear! I just poofed my mom! I wish my mom was still here! I said. Nothing. “Sweetie I’m home!” “Mom!” I sighed with relief. I gave her a hug. I looked at her and that wasn’t my mom! “Who are you!” “Why, I am your mom. “No you're not!” “Your green!” “And you have blood dripping down your shirt!” “But that’s not my fault, you killed me, then I came back, but with downfalls.” she smiled. I still had the monkey's paw in my hand, I wished I never bought you! I said. Something happened when I said. A dark, and green portal came out of nowhere and was swallowing everything in our apartment! “What’s happening! I yelled. You just wished you never bought it, it deceives you like that, if you aren’t alive then you can’t buy anything! “What!” “That's not what I meant!” Just then the green swallowed everything including my mom and me. All I saw was darkness then BAM!
