Read this excerpt from Richard Connell’s “The Most Dangerous Game.” Which two emotions does the story’s setting inspire in the reader?
"Off there to the right—somewhere—is a large island," said Whitney."
It's rather a mystery—"
"What island is it?" Rainsford asked.
"The old charts call it ‘Ship-Trap Island,’” Whitney replied." A
suggestive name, isn't it? Sailors have a curious dread of the place. I
don't know why. Some superstition—"
"Can't see it," remarked Rainsford, trying to peer through the dank
tropical night that was palpable as it pressed its thick warm blackness
in upon the yacht.
"You've good eyes," said Whitney, with a laugh," and I've seen you pick
off a moose moving in the brown fall bush at four hundred yards, but
even you can't see four miles or so through a moonless Caribbean night."
"Nor four yards," admitted Rainsford. "Ugh! It's like moist black velvet."
"It will be light enough in Rio," promised Whitney. "We should make it
in a few days. I hope the jaguar guns have come from Purdey's. We should
have some good hunting up the Amazon. Great sport, hunting."

On the one hand, he is bigger than the other boys, and is ostracized almost immediately for this reason. He also wears glasses, which symbolize intelligence and make him similar to an adult, which further adds to his rejection from the group of other
For which part of a story is tension the most important?
O A Conclusion
O B. Rising action
O C. Falling action
O D. Exposition
Answer:
B, Rising actions
Explanation:
Thsi is the part of the story (near the middle) where the tension builds up, without the tension your story would be pretty boring)
Option B. Rising action is the part of a story tension most important.
Part of a storyA story exists as a narration that a narrator does to tell something about someone or something. The word narration arrives from the Latin word narration or narrative which indicates tell (a story). A narration could contain real facts, characterizations (of people, things, moments, etc.), fictional facts and environments, or anything a writer could imagine.
Narrations have a specific structure that furnishes them with a sequential order that creates them more comfortable to understand both the writer and the reader. Sometimes this structure exists not applied in chronological order in a story, but if someone analyses it carefully it will be at least the three major parts:
The beginning: the approach of the events. Here you will be capable to say what kind of narrator the story has and what will be the primary theme of the narration.The conflict: Here exists the moment when the tension of the narration is very important because what occurs next with the problem presented in this section will describe the next part of the narration.The end: In this part, the conflict includes a resolution (this can be better or worse, but it stands still as a final of the events). The conclusion occurs and the story ends.Thinking in this structural division of the story, the part when tension exists most significant is the conflict due to the relevance that the problem comprises here and in general throughout the story.
Hence, Option B. Rising action is the part of a story tension most important.

Which statement correctly describes the relationship of ideas in this text? The passage of time is signaled by the words "was committed," "he finally convinced," and "samples were distributed." The passage of time is signaled by the words "he finally convinced," "Early results," and "customers became." Cause-and-effect relationships are signaled by the words "however," "he finally convinced," and "customers became." Cause-and-effect relationships are signaled by the words "he finally convinced," "which 'met an unperceived need,'" and "Early results."
Answer:
Cause-and-effect relationships are signaled by the words "he finally convinced," "which 'met an unperceived need,'" and "Early results."
Explanation:
In the excerpt taken from "The Evolution of Useful Things," we can describe the relationship of ideas in the following manner:
B. The passage of time is signaled by the words "he finally convinced," "Early results," and "customers became."
In the excerpt we are analyzing here, there is a clear relationship between the ideas to show the passage of time.Words such as "finally" and "early" are used to do precisely that - show the sequence of events over time.In the passage, we are told how, after some time, Fry was (finally) able to convince the office-supply division to test his product.At first, the (early) results were not promising. But, after distributing samples, the customers became hooked.There is clearly a passage of time between the three events: convincing the division, obtaining results, and then getting customers interested.With that in mind, we can choose letter B as the best option.This is the complete passage:
Fry was committed to his brainchild, however, and he finally convinced an office-supply division of 3M to test-market the product, which "met an unperceived need." Early results were not at all promising, but in those cases where samples were distributed, customers became hooked.

Explanation:
Devon is researching voter turnout. He found information from two sources.
In recent elections, turnout has ranged from about 50% to 60% of the voting-age population. But there is a simple change the US could make to boost turnout dramatically, something that has worked in at least 26 other democracies. The government could make Americans vote. President Barack Obama has endorsed the idea, and yet it has never taken hold in the US, for a variety of reasons. But many experts think it's a good idea. . . .
In the US, compulsory voting has started to enter the mainstream conversation. In May of last year, Obama publicly endorsed compulsory voting for the first time, telling a crowd in Cleveland that "it would be transformative if everybody voted" specifically because of the class-bias effect.
–"Half of Americans Probably Won’t Vote – But Requiring Them to Would Change That,”
Chris Weller
No one is dragged to the polls against his or her will, and no one is thrown in jail for refusing to cast a ballot. Instead, a modest fine (about $20 in Australia) is levied on people who fail to show up and have no good excuse for their absence.
–"A Feasible Roadmap to Compulsory Voting,”
Nicholas Stephanopoulos
Which statement best combines ideas from the passages?
The United States could use fines as Australia does to increase voter turnout.
Australia charges people a minimal fine if they choose not to vote in an election.
Only about half of the voting-age population in the United States votes in elections.
Leaders have found ways to increase voter turnout in Australia and the United States.

Being in quarantine has given me all of the time in the world to think about life, and then
some. Sure, there's things that I can do while I am at home...cook, clean, draw, watch tv, grade.
Nap. But when all of those things are said and done, there is still a ridiculous amount of time I've
had in my own head.
Through being by myself so much during this time, I have been thinking. I've been
thinking about my experiences in life and what wisdom that I've learned from these experiences
and my observations. These are my beliefs, and this is what drives me. Here are a few things
that are a part of my personal credo.
1.) Every day doesn't need to be an accomplishment. One day you may complete all
of the work you planned and more, and the next you sleep 16 hours. Both are
okay, and we need both kinds of days,
2.) It is okay to feel more than one emotion at once. You can be happy and scared
for a new opportunity at the same time, angry and worried about bad choices a
friend or family member made, or amused and embarrassed at your parents at
the same time. You are allowed to feel more than one thing at once, and
sometimes those emotions are conflicting. That is okay.
3.) Life is a roller coaster and there are going to be ups and downs. You can sit there
thinking all day about how you wish your life had more ups, but if it wasn't a mix
of both, how would you know what good things are, if everything is good? Be
grateful for the bad things, because they help make you appreciate the good
things in life more

a formal style?
O "pre-digital age"
O "technology-based society"
O "get with the program"
O"modern approach"
Answer:
'get with the program'
Explanation:
'Get with the program' is an idiom used in informal style and tone.
An idiom is an expression or phrase that is used to convey the meaning different from it's literal meaning.
The meaning of expression 'get withh the program' means to get along with, or to become aware or current.
As sentence 2, is talking about updating the ways of learning in the digitalized age, the informal use of the expression 'get with the program' does not match with thr formal tone of the sentence.
So, the correct answer is the third option.
