First, choose your “amazing person.”
Then consider: What makes him or her amazing? Is it wealth? Is it intellectual accomplishment? Is it physical accomplishment? Is it contribution to society? Is it a personal hero of yours (such as your mother or father)?
In short: Why is the person amazing? What has he or she done that others haven’t done?
Once you have those traits, then writing the essay shouldn’t be difficult. To begin the essay, you can do the traditional: “The most amazing person I know [or have heard of] is . . . “ Or you can back into it: “Three of every five people who contracted smallpox died. During the 20th century alone, an estimated 300 million people died of the disease before it was eradicated. My choice of an ‘amazing person’ first determined how to immunize people against smallpox—Dr. Edward Jenner.”
Then you tell the story of why the person was amazing and how he or she came to that point.

How did Red Cloud view the "Indian Department" left in charge
of reservation life?
A Red Cloud viewed them as corrupt; the department did little
to actually help the Native Americans, and instead they lied,
discouraged, and filled their own pockets with large salaries.
B Red Cloud sympathized; the department did what they could
to help but never received the funding supposedly set aside
by the U.S. government when they first agreed to live on the
reservations.
C Red Cloud blamed them for the massacre at Wounded Knee,
for if they had provided sufficient funds to the Lakota people
then groups would not have fled into the Badlands.
D Red Cloud viewed the department as wholly unnecessary;
he believed it was in the better interest of his people if they
continued their traditional lifestyles on the reservation
without interference.

What is a dead language?? What is language change?? How do historical linguists edit a dead language
Answer and Explanation:
Dead language is the term used to describe a language that no longer has native speakers, even though it is possible to study it and have knowledge of its grammar and vocabulary. However, as there are no native speakers, the study of pronunciation is weakened.
Language change, on the other hand, is the term that refers to changes made to a language over time. This is a common characteristic of a living language, which changes and evolves as its society advances.
Editing a dead language is usually done by comparing other related languages and by sound patterns.

The king cobra instantly turned its head toward me and flared its hood. Was it about to strike? The interesting thing about the king cobra is that it is the smartest snake on earth. It can see 330 feet, and its venom contains powerful neurotoxins.
Is this passage foreshadowing or change in pacing ?????
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
This passage is a change in pacing because after the text says "The king cobra instantly turned its head toward me and flared its hood. Was it about to strike?" it suddenly change the continuity of the action and refers to some characteristics of the cobra.
It could have been "foreshadowing" if the text would have continued the original narrative of the preparation for the attack, until describing the attack or not.
However, the text changed in pacing when it wrote: "The interesting thing about the king cobra is that it is the smartest snake on earth. It can see 330 feet, and its venom contains powerful neurotoxins. This new information about the cobra's characteristics changed the narrative.

Which sentences use parentheses and brackets correctly? Check all that apply. The work indeed sold at auction [although the winning bid [$150] was low]. He claims that the event will have "a major artistic and economic impact" [italics added]. The meeting (facilitated by Jessa (first half) and Ravi (second half)) was on Tuesday. "Texting while driving is never safe," Sanchez says ([italics added]). K. Jones's first novel (Blue Sky [B&R Press, 1995]) was a runaway success.
Answer:
1. The work indeed sold at auction [although the winning bid [$150] was low].
2. The meeting (facilitated by Jessa (first half) and Ravi (second half)) was on Tuesday.
Explanation: Parentheses are used to add extra information to a text. The sentence: "The meeting (facilitated by Jessa (first half) and Ravi (second half)) was on Tuesday" uses parentheses correctly since the extra information, If taken out, would still make sense.
Brackets are used exclusively to quote something. The sentence: "The work indeed sold at auction [although the winning bid [$150] was low]", used brackets correctly since the information inside is someone's opinion, instead of a fact.

Read the excerpt from Iqbal. My first impression was that he was handsome. Then I thought, No, he isn't really good-looking. But he had such eyes. They were sweet and deep and they weren't afraid. He was standing at the threshold of the workroom with Hussain Khan's enormous hand gripping his arm and we were all looking at him. The fourteen of us child-slaves plus Karim, all observing another slave. He was one of the many who had come and gone over the years, but we felt that somehow, this new boy was different. He looked around at us, one by one. He was sad, of course, like anyone who has been away from home for a long time, like anyone who is little more than a slave, like anyone who can't imagine what will become of him. But I'm telling you this: He wasn't afraid. Why did the author choose to provide this fictional account of Iqbal Masih, who was a real person? Select 4 options.
Answer:
to interpret and share real events
to bring Iqbal to life through descriptive detail and dialogue
to add details, such as characters' thoughts and feelings, to the story

Which line from Edgar Allan Poe's "Annabel Lee" contains alliteration?
Annabel Lee
by Edgar Allan Poe
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom
you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
/was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee-
With a love that the winged seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsmen came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!-that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
A
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
Answer: Part A- Annabel Lee and the speaker were deeply in love
Part B- but we loved with a love that was more than love I am my Annabel Lee
