Molly: What the? What is going on? I'm going to see why the power is off. Oh my god no! Why would he do that? What happened!?
Christina: What's that noise? Ugh, what is James doing? Why is he going down to the basement? What happened to the power, why did he turn it off? Whats crying? THE DOG! He...he killed it. Why is he running upstairs. He is back down stairs, what-what is wrong with him? He knows I didn’t do anything, why is he staring at me? What has gone into James?
James: Why is the power out? What is the noise in the basement? I should go check it out. What is that noise? No, what is she doing! NO! I have to do something! WHAT DID SHE DO!
Answer:
It kind of makes since. lol
Explanation:
Christina said James was in the basement and he killed the dog. But then when you get to James part it says " No, what is she doing, NO! I have to do something! WHAT DID SHE DO!" So either Christina was moving the dog or James saw Christina kill the dog. Who ever killed the dog should go on a killing spree.
Ex: Christina(keep hers the same way)
James: The powers out. That means no one saw me. (notices Christina, sees the look on her face) DANG! She saw me. I have to kill her to if im going to get away wit this.
Not word per word but make James the bad guy and either he kills Christina or he kidnaps her.
Read the excerpt from Animal Farm. As winter drew on, Mollie became more and more troublesome. She was late for work every morning and excused herself by saying that she had overslept. . . . But there were also rumours of something more serious. One day, as Mollie strolled blithely into the yard, flirting her long tail and chewing at a stalk of hay, Clover took her aside. "Mollie,” she said, "I have something very serious to say to you. This morning I saw you looking over the hedge that divides Animal Farm from Foxwood. One of Mr. Pilkington's men was standing on the other side of the hedge. And—I was a long way away, but I am almost certain I saw this—he was talking to you and you were allowing him to stroke your nose. What does that mean, Mollie?” "He didn't! I wasn't! It isn't true!” cried Mollie, beginning to prance about and paw the ground. "Mollie! Look me in the face. Do you give me your word of honour that that man was not stroking your nose?” "It isn't true!” repeated Mollie, but she could not look Clover in the face, and the next moment she took to her heels and galloped away into the field. A thought struck Clover. Without saying anything to the others, she went to Mollie's stall and turned over the straw with her hoof. Hidden under the straw was a little pile of lump sugar and several bunches of ribbon of different colours. Three days later Mollie disappeared. Which event prompts Clover to look in Mollie’s stall?

Have you ever tried to run away or hide from a problem? What was the ultimate outcome? Write about a time
that you or someone you know tried to avoid something.
Answer:
yes, the outcome was not as good as i thought it would be.
Running away from your problems leads to more and more problems. You lose sight of who you could've been if you'd actually committed to something, or stuck it out when the going got tough. Instead, you create a world that you have to tip-toe through because it's full of land mines that haven't been dealt with.
ive ran away from many problems and there was never a good income me and my friend had a major fight and instead of fixing it i ran and hid from it and that lead to misleading departure we were no longer friends and stopped communicating
some Teens also may run away to try to escape worries like having problems with school, being bullied, coming out as gay, or dealing with an unplanned pregnancy. Alcohol or drugs also can play a role in teens’ running away. Often, teens may run away because of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse at home.
When you run away from all of your problems, you eventually run from yourself. You forget the person you could be if you stayed in one place, worked through your downfalls, accepted your shortcomings and then overcame them. You forget that there’s a version of you who is reliable and passionate and strong.

(1) Bob Dylan is the songwriter who opened up the doors of possibility to all who followed. (2) He was the mysterious bard with a guitar who sent out a clarion call—first as the acoustic Voice of His Generation, then as the plugged-in rocker who remained a master of the unexpected for five decades—that the words pop singers sang were worthy of being taken seriously.
(3) "Dylan was a revolutionary,” Bruce Springsteen said in his 1988 speech inducting Dylan into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. (4) "The way that Elvis freed your body, Bob freed your mind.” (5) Early masterpieces such as "A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall” and "Visions Of Johanna” and "Like A Rolling Stone” fueled a debate: Are rock lyrics poetry?
(6) The answer must be yes, because on Thursday, Dylan was awarded the highest honor for a writer: the Nobel Prize in literature. (7) The Swedish Academy, in making him the first American winner since novelist Toni Morrison in 1993, cited him for "having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition.”

The central conflict can be described as:
Man vs. Society (or Man vs. King)
Throughout the story, Edmund, a young falconer's apprentice, faces the challenge of training a wild and unpredictable hawk named Gyrkin. King Richard, the ruler of the land, becomes intrigued by the hawk's fierce nature and desires to possess it. He commands Edmund to train Gyrkin to become his personal hunting bird.
The conflict arises when Edmund faces a moral dilemma. He knows that Gyrkin is a wild bird who is better off in the wild, free to soar in the skies. However, he is torn between his loyalty to the king and his sense of duty to protect the hawk and keep it free. Edmund's internal struggle to reconcile his responsibilities as a falconer and his compassion for the hawk drives the conflict in the story.
Throughout "The King's Hawk," Edmund's actions and decisions revolve around his attempts to find a balance between obeying the king's orders and doing what he believes is right for the well-being of the hawk. The resolution of this conflict unfolds as the story progresses and leads to significant decisions that impact both Edmund and Gyrkin's futures.

Read the excerpt below from Interview with Marielle Tsukamoto and answer the question that follows.
I want people to know that she was a great teacher who loved her family and her country. She had the courage to speak out and do something about the injustice. She worked hard to pass redress. When a group of people feel they have been treated unfairly by the government, the US Constitution guarantees you the right to redress the
government. The Japanese Americans did that and because the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 was passed by Congress, our constitution is strong again. It was weakened by Executive Order 9066 when President Roosevelt ordered 120,000 innocent Japanese Americans into internment camps. Mary Tsukamoto always took the initiative to follow her beliefs. She was a respected author (she wrote the book, We the People, a Story of Internment in America), a political activist and someone who worked for world peace. She was selected by the California State Senate as a Notable Californian.
What should you examine to find the main idea in the paragraph?
O the interviewer's purpose and style of questions
O the topic, medium, and supporting sentences
O the interviewee's purpose and type of responses
