1. PART A: Which of the following best describes a central theme of the text?
A. Death may not a permanent state of being and can perhaps be reversed.
B. A person needs structure and support in order to form a good conscience and proper identity.
C. Hatred should always be met with hatred, and injury met with revenge.
D. Playing with life is a power that corrupts and can have terrible consequences.

Answer:

D. Playing with life is a power that corrupts and can have terrible consequences.

Explanation:

According to the excerpt from Frankenstein, Chapter 16, this is a story of Victor Frankenstein creating life in his laboratory.

However,he finds out that what he created is a monster and he attempts to flee.

The monster he created vows to destroy Victor and everything he holds dear.

The sentence that best describes a central theme of the text is that playing with life is a disruptive power and can have dire consequences, as shown in option D.

We can arrive at this answer because:

Although the violent acts were provoked by the creature, it was Frankenstein's rejection that provoked it. This region arose from Frankenstein's irresponsibility in playing with life.

This question is about chapter 16 of "Frankenstein."

Sugar plantations were Hell because of the endless labor they demanded from slaves. They were Hell because of the many dangers and the injuries that they caused. They were Hell because the slaves who labored without end got nothing for their work—except to live another day, to work more. But none of these miseries was the true reason the plantations were so evil. The plantations were Hell because the masters and overseers were treated as gods—which turned them into devils. The English historian Lord Acton famously said, “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” That is a perfect description of sugar Hell. Men with absolute power over their slaves acted like creatures we would otherwise meet only in nightmares. Their cruelty had no limit—they preferred to kill their slaves rather than fear them.

Life of Jacqueline B. Kennedy
adapted from John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum



Jacqueline Lee Bouvier was born on July 28, 1929, in Southampton, New York. Her father, John, was a wealthy stockbroker on Wall Street whose family had come from France in the early 1800s. Her mother, Janet, had ancestors from Ireland and England.
Janet Bouvier was an accomplished rider, and Jackie was only a year old when her mother first put her on a horse. By age 11, she had already won several national championships. Jackie also enjoyed reading. Before she started school, she had read all the children's books on her bookshelves. Her heroes were Mowgli from Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book, Robin Hood, Little Lord Fauntleroy's grandfather, Scarlett O'Hara from Gone With the Wind, and the poet Byron. Mrs. Bouvier wondered if Jackie might one day be a writer.
After kindergarten, Jackie started first grade at Miss Chapin's School on East End Avenue in New York. One of her teachers, Miss Platt, thought Jackie was "a darling child, the prettiest little girl, very clever, very artistic, and full of the devil." At times she did get into mischief and would be sent to the headmistress, Miss Ethel Stringfellow, who wrote on her report card: "Jacqueline was given a D in Form because her disturbing conduct in her geography class made it necessary to exclude her from the room."
In June 1947, Jackie graduated from Miss Porter's School, a boarding school for girls in Connecticut. She continued her education at Vassar College in New York, where she studied history, literature, art, and French.
Jacqueline started her first job in the fall of 1951 as the "Inquiring Camera Girl" for the Washington Times-Herald newspaper. Roving around the city, she took pictures of people she encountered, asked them questions on the issues of the day, and wove their answers into her newspaper column. Among those she interviewed for her column was Richard M. Nixon. She also covered the first inauguration of Dwight D. Eisenhower and the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
During this time, Jacqueline met John F. Kennedy, who was a congressman and soon to be elected a Senator from Massachusetts. On September 12, 1953, they married at St. Mary's Church in Newport, Rhode Island. After their honeymoon in Mexico, the Kennedys returned to Washington D.C. Early on in their marriage, Senator Kennedy suffered crippling pain in his back from football and wartime injuries and had two operations. While recovering from surgery, Mrs. Kennedy encouraged him to write a book about several U.S. senators who had risked their careers to fight for the things they believed in. The book, called Profiles in Courage, was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for biography in 1957. That same year, the Kennedys' first child, Caroline, was born.
In January 1960, Senator John F. Kennedy announced his candidacy for the presidency of the United States. He began traveling all around the country and Jacqueline often accompanied him. During the campaign, she learned that she was pregnant and her doctors instructed her to remain at home. From there, she answered hundreds of campaign letters, taped TV commercials, gave interviews, and wrote a weekly newspaper column, Campaign Wife, which was distributed across the country. On November 8, 1960, John F. Kennedy beat Republican Richard M. Nixon in a very close race. Two and-a-half weeks later, Mrs. Kennedy gave birth to their second child, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Jr. On January 20, 1961, John Fitzgerald Kennedy took the oath of the office to become the nation's 35th president. At age 31, Jacqueline Kennedy was the first lady.
