Read the following excerpt from a personal essay titled "Lost Childhood." What is the main idea of the essay?
Looking back at my childhood 20 years later, I never realized the many opportunities that I received. Back then, I thought my childhood was filled with things that my parents didn't allow me to do. But now, I realize that my parents did allow me to have many positive experiences. I was allowed to travel with friends on school trips. I was allowed to play sports. I was allowed to choose what I wanted to study. When I talk to friends I grew up with, we are amazed by the opportunities we had. We are grateful for our childhood experiences, even though we didn't recognize and appreciate them at the time.
A.
Childhood often isn’t appreciated until we are grown.
B.
Childhood isn’t an easy time period for every person.
C.
Parents often don’t openly express themselves with their children.
D.
Parents often make childhood more difficult for their children.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
A in this situation is the most logical answer.
Answer B is stating that childhood is not an easy time for every person, the essay states, "But now, I realize that my parents did allow me to have many positive experiences" This excerpt isnt talking about others childhood, but rather HIS own childhood. Though it might be true, it's not the main point.
Answer C says that parents dont express themselves often with their children. Now like answer B, that might be the case in real-life, but it's not what the excerpt is talking about.
Answer D says parents make childhood difficult. Again, might be the case but this excerpt is talking about the opposite thing. "But now, I realize that my parents did allow me to have many positive experiences."
Therefore, its answer A, and because the beginning says, "Looking back at my childhood 20 years later" it just proves further more.

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking

GIVING 100 POINTS!!!Read chpater 7 of Animal Farm. What is the author's purpose in this section? How does the author's use of literary devices support his purpose? Be sure to consider the historical context as you respond(must be 6-8 sentences)
Answer:
Explanation:
Faced with the realities of farming — and his own lack of planning for the winter — Napoleon is forced to deal with a hungry populace and the potentially damaging leaks of such news to the outside world. To surmount these problems, Napoleon metaphorically assumes the role of director and mounts a theatrical production. In terms of this metaphor, Mr. Whymper is the audience whom Napoleon must engage and fool into believing in an illusion, the sheep are actors reciting lines about the rations having been increased, and the empty grain bins filled with sand are the props (or "special effects"). Whymper is fooled into thinking that Animal Farm is running smoothly, and Napoleon again demonstrates his judicious use of deception. (Ironically, this deceptive theatricality is exactly what Squealer later accuses Snowball of having done with Jones at the Battle of the Cowshed.)
More deception occurs in the pernicious lies spread about Snowball. Napoleon uses him as a scapegoat for any of the farm's misfortunes, as Hitler did with European Jews as he rose to power. Both leaders understand the public's desire to cast blame on an outside source for all their troubles. Squealer's claims that the pigs have found "documents" linking Snowball to Jones are an appeal to the animals' need for proof — although the nonexistent documents are never revealed to them on the grounds that the animals are unable to read them. Like the grain-bins filled with sand, Snowball's "documents" are another ruse used by Napoleon to manipulate the thoughts of those who could end his rule. The animals refuse to believe that the thin walls of the windmill contributed to its collapse, revealing the extent to which they subscribe to the Snowball-baiting ideology.

Rewrite this scene from Daisy’s or Gatsby’s point of view. Your rewritten scene must include the character’s inner thoughts, description of other characters/the setting, and dialogue between characters. PLEASE NOTE:You may use the dialogue from the original text, but nothing else. Don’t let dialogue dominate your entire rewritten scene. Also, you may rewrite the dialogue, as long as it stays true to the scene and characters. (Example: Many movie versions of books change the dialogue but not in a way that changes the representation of the character or scene, ideally.)When you are finished, answer the following questions:1.How did the change in narration affect the story?2.Which narrator—Nick or Daisy/Gatsby—do you think is more effective in this scene? Explain. She turned her head as there was a light dignified knocking at the front door. I went out and opened it. Gatsby, pale as death, with his hands plunged like weights in his coat pockets, was standing in a puddle of water glaring tragically into my eyes. With his hands still in his coat pockets he stalked by me into the hall, turned sharply as if he were on a wire, and disappeared into the living-room. It wasn’t a bit funny. Aware of the loud beating of my own heart I pulled the door to against the increasing rain.For half a minute there wasn’t sound. Then from the living-room I heard a sort of choking murmur and part of a laugh, followed by Daisy’s voice on a clear artificial note:“I certainly am awfully glad to see you again.”A pause; it endured horribly. I had nothing to do in the hall, so I went into the room.Gatsby, his hands still in his pockets, was reclining against the mantelpiece in a strained counterfeit of perfect ease, even of boredom. His head leaned back so far that it rested against theface of a defunct mantelpiece clock, and from this position his distraught eyes stared down at Daisy, who was sitting, frightened but graceful, on the edge of a stiff chair.“We’ve met before,” muttered Gatsby. His eyes glanced momentarily at me, and hislips parted with an abortive attempt at a laugh. Luckily the clock took this moment to tilt dangerously at the pressure of his head, whereupon he turned and caught it with trembling fingers and set it back in place. Then he sat down, rigidly, his elbow onthe arm of the sofa and his chin in his hand.“I’m sorry about the clock,” he said.My own face had now assumed a deep tropical burn. I couldn’t muster up a single commonplace out of the thousand in my head.“It’s an old clock,” I told them idiotically. I think we all believed for a moment that it had smashed in pieces on the floor.“We haven’t met for many years,” said Daisy, her voice as matter-of-fact as it could ever be.“Five years next November.”The automatic quality of Gatsby’s answer set us all back at least another minute. I had them both on their feet with the desperate suggestion that they help me make tea in the kitchen when the demoniac Finn brought it in on a tray.
Amid the welcome confusion of cups and cakes a certain physical decency established itself. Gatsby got himself into a shadow and, while Daisy and I talked, looked conscientiously from one to the other of us with tense, unhappy eyes. However, as calmness wasn’t an end in itself, I made an excuse at the first possible moment,and got to my feet.“Where are you going?” demanded Gatsby in immediate alarm.“I’ll be back.”“I’ve got to speak to you before you go.”He followed me wildly into the kitchen, closed the door, and whispered: “Oh, God!” in a miserable way. “What’s the matter?”“This is a terrible mistake,” he said, shaking his head from side to side, “a terrible, terrible mistake.”“You’re just embarrassed, that’s all,” and luckily I added: “Daisy’s embarrassed too.”“She’s embarrassed?” he repeated incredulously. “Just as much as you are" It was time I went back. While the rain continued it had seemed like the murmur of their voices, rising and swelling a little now and then with gusts of emotion. But in the new silence I felt that silence had fallen within the house too.I went in—after making every possible noise in the kitchen, short of pushing over the stove—but I don’t believe they heard a sound. They were sitting at either end of the couch, looking at each other as if some question had been asked, or was in the air, and every vestige of embarrassment was gone. Daisy’s face was smeared with tears, and when I came in she jumped up and began wiping at it with her handkerchief before a mirror. But there was a changein Gatsby that was simply confounding. He literally glowed; without a word or a gesture of exultation a new well-being radiated from him and filled the little room.“Oh, hello old sport,” he said, as if he hadn’t seen me for years. I thought for a momenthe was going to shake hands.“It’s stopped raining.”

Answer:
Daisy, pull over. Daisy, pull over. Daisy you are in no condition to drive. Please, please pull over.
Through the rearview mirror, I could see only his furrowed brow, glistening in the August heat, as he slumped lower and lower in his seat. He never said these things to me, but I could tell he was thinking them. I could almost hear him shouting as I sped up through the fading twilight. The truth was, I knew perfectly well I was in no condition to drive. I also knew perfectly well that whatever I asked for, Gatsby would provide. The last few weeks had proved that. Stepping foot inside Gatsby's mansion was like leaving reality for a spell and entering into a hazy, glittering dream, almost like the distant sight of the city through the translucent shield of the Valley of Ashes. Although at first I had reveled in and even relished the reflection the glory cast upon me by Gatsby's imagination, the novelty of living outside the realm of realism soon began to fade. I began to question, and still question, whether or not Gatsby really loved me or if he was simply infatuated with me.
Daisy, please stop all this, he pleaded silently.
I drove on. I haven't been able to shake the growing dread that Gatsby was using me as a way to revisit the past for a couple of hours a day. That maybe he bends to my every whim not out of love, but because of something more selfish.
Daisy, this isn't safe!
I'm no angel. I wish he would call my faults and poor decisions as he saw them, like Tom does. Instead, he had allowed me to place both of us in danger simply because he didn't wish to offend me. That, I thought, is simply ridiculous...
I was shaken from my reveries by a loud thump, a scream, and Gatsby, finally pressed to action, forcefully steering the car out of my grip and away from the inevitable wreckage we had left in our path.

Both the two passages discuss the human suffering. So, the correct option is D.
What is Human suffering in both the passages?In 1999, Elie Wiesel delivered a speech titled "The Perils of Indifference." He based it on his own experience as a political prisoner in a Nazi concentration camp and used it to show the "human suffering." He expressed concern about how harmful "apathy" (lack of zeal) might be for a person. He lost passion for live after learning that the majority of his family had been slaughtered before he was sentenced to prison.
The same way, Wiesel stated that "silence promotes the tormentor" when discussing "human pain" in his "Nobel Prize Acceptance Address." If people are silent about their state or circumstance, the tormentor will use it. He also exhorted people to never remain silent when they saw suffering.
Therefore, both the two passages discuss the human suffering. So, the correct option is D.

how can names represent our heritage and who we are ?
RESTATE QUESTION BEFORE ANSWERING.
Names can represent a family line generation. Names can be passed on from generation to generation. Heritage means to be inherited, so if your name was passed along to you then that is a part of who you are.
Answer:
Heritage is a persons family identity as a whole. Names give off a sense of culture.
Explanation:
Names can represent our heritage and who we are by sort of explaining who you are. For example if someones name is Starkesha you might feel like she is black or African American. If someone's name is Hezekiah his parents might be biblical since Hezekiah is a name from the bible. If someones name is Jesus he or she is most likely Hispanic.
