What does the excerpt from Anton Chekhov's The Proposal indicate about the Lomov and Chubukov families?

LOMOV: I shall try to be brief. You must know, honoured Natalya Stepanovna, that I have long, since my childhood, in fact, had the privilege of knowing your family. My late aunt and her husband, from whom, as you know, I inherited my land, always had the greatest respect for your father and your late mother. The Lomovs and the Chubukovs have always had the most friendly, and I might almost say the most affectionate, regard for each other. And, as you know, my land is a near neighbour of yours. You will remember that my Oxen Meadows touch your birchwoods.

A.
They are among the richest families in their area.
B.
They used to share a positive relationship with each other.
C.
They have always been jealous of each other's estate.
D.
They maintain a healthy bond for strictly business reasons.

Answer:

D or B

Explanation:

It never says that they are the richest.

The families share a positive relationship, but not themselves. Or I could see it being that they STILL share a good relationship. Or it could be the right anwer, just some food for thought.

It never mentions any negative emotions

They maintain a bond for business AND because they like each others company/ But I could also see this being the right answer

Inaugural Address
by John F. Kennedy, January 20, 1961 (excerpt)
Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans-
born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage—and unwilling to witness or
permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at
home and around the world.
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any
friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.
This much we pledge-and more.
To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends. United there is little we cannot
do in a host of cooperative ventures. Divided there is little we can do-for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split
asunder

Read the passage from A New Astronomy, by David Todd.

From Polaris a line of small stars curves toward the handle of the Dipper, meeting the upper one of a pair of the third magnitude. This pair, with another farther on and parallel to it, form the 'Little Dipper,' Polaris being the end of its handle. The group is Ursa Minor. Opposite the handle of the great Dipper, and at about the same distance from Polaris, are five rather bright stars forming a flattened letter W. They are the principal stars of Cassiopeia.

Can someone read over and edit and Critique my College essay?

My Essay:

It first began with salsa on mango packed for lunch on an early morning in fourth grade. While I spent all day looking forward to my ethnic snack, I was instead faced with a feeling of embarrassment after watching my classmates laugh at the wild food combinations they were not familiar with. While I have always attended school in Washington, I spent a lot of my youth in Mexico. Therefore, expressing my culture and educating others about my background has always been one of my favorite pastimes. I am confident and proud of embracing my culture. 
Additionally, being bilingual has made it possible for me to help others communicate, but most importantly help my mother, who immigrated to the U.S. after marrying my father. Due to my father constantly working one job during the day and another during the night in order to support our family, I spent most of my time with my mother, who did not speak English. Therefore, Spanish is my first language, and I did not learn English until after beginning school. 
I was given the responsibility of doing almost all of the talking for my mother from an incredibly young age. For as long as I can remember, I have been translating at my mother's doctor appointments, ordering food, and being my mother's form of communication here in America. Although I have gained many new communication skills and been exposed to new experiences early on as a result of this, it took years for me to recognize this growth. It was difficult to assume independence from quite a young age. I envied those who could ask their parents for help with homework and did not have to translate on a daily basis. I struggled to fit it in at school and would constantly feel as if I was in my own box even during extracurriculars. I could not understand the traditions my classmates were so familiar with and began to feel embarrassed about my background. I would never wish the feeling of not knowing where you belong onto anyone. I have used these experiences as a lesson to help teach me to be more open minded about other people’s cultures and learn to be comfortable with my own identity. 
However, I recognize negative effects of this as well. As a result of having to grow up faster than a typical child and being independent from a young age, I struggled asking others for help. As I grew older and my coursework increased in difficulty this inability to reach out became an even bigger battle. This not only played into my education but affected my sports as well. After doing competitive gymnastics since sixth grade, which served as a great distraction from hard days which seemed to be more often than not, I decided that I need to begin prioritizing my mental health as well as my education. However, I recognized that I still had a heart for the sport and longed to reach others through this. After taking a short break, I began coaching. There is nothing I can compare to the joy that I watch my students confidently stride and grasp their goals. I reflected on my personal longing for mentorship and guidance as a child and fueled this into my passion for the sport of gymnastics, and my desire to be this influence for others. I am fulfilled by being there for these students because I recognize that they have at least one place where they can be completely authentic to themselves and have someone they know is willing to help them both within the gym and beyond. This leadership has helped me learn to cope with my experiences in a positive manner and appreciate my background that has led me here.

How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s Most quiet need,
by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely,
as men strive for right.
I love thee purely,
as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use In my old griefs,
and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints.
I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

At the end of Act II, Scene 1 of The Diary of Anne Frank, Anne confides in Peter. How do you think Anne feels after this conversation? To whom do you talk about your problems? What qualities does that person possess that makes you go to that person? Answer these questions in your journal in a response of AT LEAST 150 WORDS, using details from the text to support your ideas as needed. Below is act two scene one

Scene 1
This scene starts on January first in 1944. They have been
hiding for one year, five months and twenty-five days.
Anne is writing in her diary while everyone else is either
reading, lying down, or taking the laundry down (Mrs.
Frank.) Anne says that everyone is now a little thinner. She
also says Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan discussions are as violent
as ever and her Mom still doesn’t understand her, while she
doesn’t understand her Mom either. Miep comes with Mr.
Kraler as the doorbell rings with the V is for Victory signal,
which means “V” in Morse code. They tell everyone
“Happy New Year,” and Miep brings a cake just like she
did the year before. Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan fight over who
should cut the cake. Eventually Mrs. Frank gets the knife to
cut it. Peter asks if Miep can look for his cat Mouschi. She
has to go because Dirk is taking her to a party. Mr. Van
Daan chases after her and he wants to sell Mrs. Van Daan’s
fur coat. Mrs. Van Daan begins to cry after Mr. Van Daan
pulled the coat away from her. Mr. Kraler asks Mr. Frank
to come downstairs with him to gets his opinion on
something. Mr. Frank makes Mr. Kraler tell everyone what
he has to say. He tells them that works in the storeroom
named Carl asked a few weeks before Mr. Kraler is telling
them this, about how Mr. Frank was and Mr. Kraler said he
heard a rumor that he was in Switzerland. Carl thought Mr.
Kraler knew more. The day before Mr. Kraler asked this,
Carl came with invoices for Mr. Kraler to sign and when he
looked up he saw Carl staring at the bookcase. He asked if
there was a door there that went up to a loft and he also
wanted Twenty more guilders (money in Holland) a week.
Dussel thinks that Carl was the thief and that’s how he
knows about it. They tell him to offer Carl half of the raise
and he agrees. He goes downstairs to get the phone and it’s
his wife calling. Margot says she wishes the end will come,
whatever it is and Mrs. Frank says she should be ashamed
of herself. Anne goes to her room and slams the door. Peter
brings Anne’s cake to her room and she thanks him. Peter
says he thinks Anne was fine with what she said and he
can’t talk when he’s mad. He says she’s fine and without
her he doesn’t know what he’ll do. Anne and Peter talk for
a little while and they feel comfortable talking with each
other. The scene ends with a diary entry by Anne. She says
that the people Miep got ration books (books of stamps
given to ensure even distribution of scarce items) for them
were arrested, so they had to cut down on their food. On
March 6th 1944, Mr. Kraler is in the hospital and he
probably has an ulcer (an open painful wound that fails to
heal.) Miep has to run the business and help the families by
herself. The Americans have landed in Italy and Mr. Frank
is hoping for the war to end soon. Mr. Dussel is waiting for
Carl to ask for more money. She really wants someone to
talk to that understands her that is young and feels like she
does.
