This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online, it is as follows:
Read the excerpt from Dr. Martin Luther King’s “Letter from Birmingham Jail.”
Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will.
What is the author’s purpose for including this sentence?
A. to condemn the insincerity of his critics’ advice
B. to contrast the motivations of people in power
C. to explain the need for mutual understanding
D. to criticize people who treat others cruelly
Answer:
The author's purpose for including this sentence is:
A. to condemn the insincerity of his critics’ advice .
Explanation:
Dr. King mentions the "shallow understanding from people of good will" because of his critics. Unfortunately, even well-intentioned people will offer bad advice or undeserved criticism when their understanding of the subject is not deep. That, according to Dr. King, is "even more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will." Those who have good will could be of help, could make a difference. When, however, they do not make an effort to fully know the subject and to choose between right and wrong, they end up harming others.
Answer:
A. to condemn the insincerity of his critics’ advice

Question 3
Luck has nothing to do with it.
The statement above is a sentence fragment.
The statement above is a complete sentence.
Question 4
Answer:
The statement is a complete sentence.
Explanation:
The question is, do you need more information to understand what is said?
I think the sentence is just fine. You get the idea of what it means immediately.
For example if you had a sentence that said
Because I practiced throwing a curve ball, I struck the batter out.
and then you followed it with
Luck had nothing to do with it.
You should understand that I got the batter out, and luck had nothing to do with it.

What does the speaker mean by ""And ignorance is / A lost paradise"" in lines 20–21?
Answer:
The line '...and ignorance is/ a lost paradise' means that as she has gained knowledge by reading, she is no more ignorant to knowledge and to her ignorance is a like a lost paradise.
Explanation:
"Blind" is a poem written by Fatima Naoot. The poem speaks about the blindness of the speaker and the surgery which she underwent. The speaker is saying that when she was blind she used to listen to people reading her books.
The speaker in the poem is also trying to speak not only about her physical blindness but blindness in terms of ignorance of knowledge or the things she learned by listening to the books.
The speaker says that she was illiterate in terms of many things and ignorant in terms of spirituality as well. By using the reference of 'Lama' in her poetry, the speaker is hinting about her spiritual blindness and ignorance of spiritual things.
So, the speaker is refering to this spiritual ignorance a paradise that is lost. That now she is no more ignorant and has gained knowledge.

arguments?

o vaccinated, and the second author argues that

vaccinated, and the second author argues that many
children do not need to be vaccinated.
Answer:
D)
The first author argues that most children should be
vaccinated, and the second author argues that many
children do not need to be vaccinated.
Explanation: D is the correct formulated option, since both of the authors goals are to persuade parents into whether their child is to be vaccinated or not. Thus cutting to the chase. In arguments like these, authors would rather focus on persuasion, backed up by evidence, especially in critical arguments like these (based on the health of children).
Answer:

Why do you think Annie Dillard read The Field Book of Ponds and Streams so many times
Answer:
Annie Dillard read the book 'The Field Book of Ponds and Streams' so many times as she found what she herself did not know she was looking for, the essential tools for naturalist trade.
Explanation:
"An American Childhood" is a memoir of Annie Billard. She wrote about her childhood and her high school days in the book.
In her book, she conveyed the message that how books help people to connect with each other emotionally as well as mentally. As Annie was an earnest reader, so when she was twelve years old, she enrolled herself in the nearest library, in Homewood. In that library, she found the book titled "The Field Book of Ponds and Streams."
She states that she read it several times especially chapter 3 of the book, which explains the essential tools for naturalist trade. Till she read that chapter, she herself was unaware of what she was looking for. The book unveiled to her many words of water and the life of insects.
She used to read the book every year and used to go through the list of names of people who borrowed that book to know that there are other people like her who are eager to find out about the 'ponds' and 'streams.'
in an occurrence at owl creek bridge why did the stars appear in a different order?
Answer and explanation:
"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" is a short story by author Ambrose Bierce. The main character, Peyton Farquhar, is tricked into trying to burn a bridge that would allow Union soldiers to cross. Farquhar is a Confederacy supporter. He ends up hanged.
However, the author fools readers for a moment, leading us to believe Farquhar escaped when the noose broke and he fell in the river. Farquhar begins a painful journey back home. He feels tired, sore, and famished. When he finds a road that leads to his house, everything tells him there is something ominous about it. It looks like no one has ever set foot there. The trees form walls on both sides, and there isn't a sound to be heard. Even the stars, when he looks up at the sky, look strange:
Overhead, as he looked up through this rift in the wood, shone great golden stars looking unfamiliar and grouped in strange constellations. He was sure they were arranged in some order which had a secret and malign significance.
All these signs mean he is dying. Farquhar never escaped. He is merely hallucinating in the brief moments it takes to die from strangulation. The stars appear in a different order as a sign of that: maybe to show what he sees is not real; maybe because he is seeing them from the Afterlife.
The pilot or flight attendant __ usually alert during the flight.
Answer and Explanation:
Even though this question is missing the instructions, we can assume it is a "fill in the blanks".
The sentence is missing a verb. Due to the position of "usually", we can say the verb that is missing either the verb "be" or a modal verb - main verbs would come after "usually", not before. Since there is no other verb in the sentence, we can eliminate modal verbs and choose verb "be" as the best option. Modal verbs need another verb to complement their meaning; the verb "be", in its turn, can work on its own.
The subject is compound, joined by "or". In this case, the verb agrees with the part of the subject that is closest to it. Since "attendant" is singular, the verb will also be singular. Therefore, the correct sentence would be:
- The pilot or flight attendant is usually alert during the flight.
The crisis of "The Yellow Wallpaper" is _____.
the point at which the narrator completely identifies herself with the woman trapped in the wallpaper
the point at which the narrator begins to keep a journal, hiding it from her husband
the point at which the narrator introduces the yellow wallpaper to the reader
seen only from the outside
The correct answer is A. The point at which the narrator completely identifies herself with the woman trapped in the wallpaper
Explanation:
"The Yellow Wallpaper" is a short story that describes the experience of a woman as she is isolated by her husband at an old house as her husband considers she is suffering from depression or a hysterical tendency. During this process, the woman becomes obsessed with the yellow wallpaper in her room.
Indeed, as days pass the woman begins to believe there is a woman behind the wallpaper and at the end of the story when her internal conflict reaches the peak she believes this woman in the wallpaper is herself. This causes the woman to destroy the wallpaper and finally lost her mind completely. This means in this story, the crisis/ climax or higher point in the story is "The point at which the narrator completely identifies herself with the woman trapped in the wallpaper" as this causes the main character to lost her mind.
