Raj sat at a broad table in the back of the school library and ran his
finger quickly over the text of a book called Syntactic Conventions in
Idiomatic Expressions. On his left, a stack of 12 more books - all
thick, all with brown, black, and earth-red covers - sat and waited for
his consumption. Suddenly, Millicent, a troublemaker he knew from
history class, peddled through the library on a bicycle while a teacher
chased her. Raj looked up briefly, raised an eyebrow, and then went
back to reading
What does the dialogue in the passage most clearly reveal about Raj?
O A. He is arrogant.
B. He is serious.
C. He is bored
O D. He is nervous.
Answer:
B. He is serious is the correct answer for this problem.
When I was little, animals took on lives and characteristics which nobody knew anything about except myself. Little things that people did or said grew into fantastic stories. There was a man who turned into an alligator for my amusement. All he did was live in a one-room house by himself down near Lake Belle. He came into the village one evening near dusk and stopped by the store. Somebody teased him that if he did not hurry up and get married, he was liable to go wild, living alone out there. I saw him tending his garden, but I made an image of him in my imagination that was different. In my mind, his work-a-day hands and feet became the claws of an alligator. A tough, knotty hide crept over him, and his mouth became a huge snout with prong-toothed, powerful jaws. I could just see him crawling from his door at night, turning his ugly head from left to right to see who was looking, then gliding down into the dark waters of Lake Belle. When I heard the thunder of bull 'gator voices from the lake on dark nights, I used to whisper to myself, "That's Mr. Pendir! Just listen at him!"
What is the reason the author uses the words "Just listen at him!" instead of "Just listen to him"?
A) because everyone talks that way when they are little
B) because it is how the alligator wanted the girl to talk
C) because that is how she would have talked back then
D) because the alligators often talked the same way to her
Answer:
C) because that is how she would have talked back then

It gives corporations an influence on how children are educated.It gives brands personal information about students.It reverses the educational process.Which side is more persuasive to you? :
