Examinations change and evolve. They have been used since ancient times.
When Stanton writes, "Such was the consistency of an assemblage of philanthropists!" (paragraph 7), she uses the rhetorical device of O a. repetition. O b. hyperbole. O C. sarcasm. O d. analogy
Answer:
OC. Sarcasm.
Explanation:
Elizabeth Cady Stanton recounts her experience attending the World Anti-Slavery Convention that occurred on June 12, 1840. She reveals how the very aspect of the Convention was to talk of freeing slaves but the men refused to accept the female gender as their equal, which is ironic.
In paragraph 7, Stanton writes "Such was the consistency of an assemblage of philanthropists", referring to the abolitionists who would fight for slaves' freedom while refusing to accept their women as equals. This statement is a sarcastic and ironic tone.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.

The Mystery of Loch Ness
By Kayden Mitchell
Of all the mysteries in the world, none has been as popular as that of the Loch Ness Monster. Perhaps the biggest mystery is whether it is convincing evidence or a simple desire to believe that keeps the myth alive.
Loch Ness is a lake in Scotland. The loch, or lake, is known for sightings of a mysterious monster. Most who see this monster, known as Nessie, describe something with a long neck and several humps above the water. Sometimes the "monster" is moving in these sightings, and sometimes it is still. Many have suggested that Nessie might be a plesiosaur (plea-see-a-soar), an aquatic dinosaur that was trapped in the loch after the last ice age.
The plesiosaur theory presents several problems. First, the plesiosaur is an air breather. Such a creature would need to surface often and, therefore, be seen more frequently. Second, it's unlikely that the same creature has lived in the loch since the last ice age. Today's creature would have to be the offspring of an original plesiosaur trapped long ago. This would suggest multiple creatures in the loch (needed to produce offspring). Again, sightings would be more frequent if this were the case.
So from a purely logical stand point, the existence of such a large and ancient creature is unlikely. But assume for a minute that it is possible. What would a plesiosaur need to live in an enclosed lake?
Tropical waters: Scientists believe plesiosaurs were warm-blooded. Like crocodiles and alligators, plesiosaurs would need to live in warm waters. The loch is very cold with temperatures averaging about 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4.4 Celsius).
Food: Like other warm-blooded creatures, plesiosaurs would need a large quantity of food. If there is a group of Nessies, then even more food would be needed. Because the loch is full of silt (underwater dust) not much light gets into the deepest areas. So the food chain, which would depend on plankton, is very weak at its base. As a result, there is probably not enough food to support such a large creature.
However, the plesiosaur theory is not the only one. Many other ideas attempt to explain the sightings and "photographs." But two separate sonar surveys of the loch have not found any evidence of a creature larger than a salmon. The last survey1, completed in 2007 by the British Broadcasting Company (BBC), involved 600 different sonar beams. Using satellite navigation systems, the team made sure every inch of the loch was searched. The team found nothing.
With cell phones and digital cameras, one would think that sightings of Nessie would increase. This has not happened. The BBC team believes the legend of Nessie has endured because people see what they want to see. To prove this, the team used a fence post, raising it before groups of tourists. Afterwards several of the tourists asked to draw pictures of what they had seen drew pictures of a monster's head.
1 "BBC 'proves' Nessie does not exist." 27 July, 2003. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3096839.stm
Based on the essay, what makes people think they have seen something in the loch?
The many sonar studies have identified strange objects in the water.
The myth of the creature makes people imagine they have seen one.
The sightings have occurred over a very long period of time.
The simple explanations suggest reasons why a creature may have survived.
Answer:
Explanation:
The passage said " The BBC team believes the legend of Nessie has endured because people see what they want to see." So the answer is "The myth of the creature makes people imagine they have seen one."

Answer:
5. Climax
6. Resolution
7. Conflict
Explanation:
A play can be defined as a literary work that presents the dialogue between characters, as well as portrayal of fictional and non-fictional events in a theatre.
Matching the element of a plot with its description, we have;
5. Climax: the decisive moment at which the rising action of the play is reversed to falling action. Climax generally marks the turning point of events in a play or story.
6. Resolution: is the end of the story. It is the part of a play or a story in which all conflicts are resolved. This ultimately implies that, it marks the end of a play, as conflict between the protagonist and antagonist is resolved.
7. Conflict: is a clash between two opponents (protagonist and antagonist) in a play.
Read the excerpts from Does My Head Look Big in This? and Persepolis.
Excerpt from Does My Head Look Big in This?:
At Hidaya the hijab was part of the uniform. But I used to take it off as soon as I stepped outside the school gates because man oh man do you need guts to get on public transportation with it on. At the end of the school day the trains would be absolutely packed with schoolkids. I could keep wearing it if I hopped on with a group of Hidaya students because I wouldn't feel so exposed. But the problem was that I had to change trains to get home and there was no way I had the courage to go the distance alone with it on.

As the nights draw in and the rain lashes down, it's all too easy to keep yourself indoors wrapped up against the ills and

Dr Terrence Latimer, Chief Medical Officer for the famous Team Turbulence, says;
"The key is not to separate riding a bike from your other daily activities, but on the contrary to integrate it. Riding to work
is the best activity, as that gets you in the saddle every day however, not everyone lives close enough to the office to do
that. You don't have to pedal the whole distance, though, as some trains do allow bikes on board. Where to put your bike
at work can also be a concern, but if space is an issue then technology has the answer folding bikes.

I'm about 95% sure I got the 4 mistakes (I tried making them bold and underlined to stand out)! I want to explain the usage of colons/semi-colons though to help you in the future.
Colons are usually used in place of a dash (-) and can be used for listing items or noting them. I think the last sentence is a perfect example of that. Notice how "folding bikes" is being noted as "the answer." This would be the perfect place to put a colon, therefore: "... if space is an issue then technology has the answer: folding bikes."
Semi-colons are used as a break in a sentence. Sometimes people use it as a "period" to continue two thoughts in a sentence that go together, but are different enough to where they need a break in between. Semi-colons are also used many times before words like "therefore" or "however." I'm sure there's a list out there, but those two were the first to come to mind.

Which of the following is correct? 0 0 0 0 Please lie this book on the table. Please except my apology. He tried to affect our vote. I need to set down and rest awhile.
Answer:
The correct sentence is:
3. He tried to affect our vote.
Explanation:
The sentences we are analyzing here are testing our knowledge of words that sound similar but have different meanings, or words that have close meanings with small differences.
For the first sentence, the verb should be "lay" instead of "lie". "Lie" is an intransitive verb, which means it does not act upon an object. "Lay", however, needs an object. We lay something. The sentence should be: Please lay this book on the table.
The second sentence confuses "except" with "accept". Just keep in mind that "except" is related to "exception", which means to exclude something. The sentence should be: Please accept my apology.
The third sentence is correct. We must use "affect", which is a verb. Some people confuse it for "effect", which is a noun.
Finally, the fourth sentence uses "set" instead of "sit", but the two verbs have completely different meanings. From the context, we can tell "sit" is the best option. The person wants to sit down to rest.
