Here is my rough draft
National landmarks are a part of our nations history. Landmarks commonly represent something that happened in the past, including wars and big events. Using public money to maintain these landmarks, is something that would be beneficial. If we do use public money to maintain them, then more generations will be able to experience them.
When landmarks deteriorate, current and future generations are no longer able to see the landmarks. An example of these landmarks deteriorating, is the Statue of Liberty. In 1875 when the statue of liberty was built it had the color of copper. However, due to the copper reacting to the sun, the color has changed to the green that it is today. Because of its color becoming green, current and future generations are unable to see the original copper color.
National Landmarks also give students an opportunity to learn more about our nation's history. Visiting National landmarks also gives students an educational experience outside of their classrooms. This can give students a better understanding of our past as a nation. It also gives teachers new teaching opportunities. I would have many things to write about, because I'm from a navy family, and have been to a lot of different places.
In conclusion, we should maintain, and preserve our national landmarks. They are part of our nation's history. They also give students a better learning experience and teachers better teaching opportunities. These are all reasons why we should use public money to maintain landmarks.

Read the excerpt from Blanca Flor.
The Narrator. Juanito took the thimble and started to carry the water from the lake. He worked as hard as he could, but soon he began to realize that the job really was an impossible one, and he knew he was doomed. He sat down and began to cry because his luck had abandoned him and because his parents' blessings offered no protection in that evil place. Blanca Flor watched Juanito's valiant effort to move the water. As she watched him crying, her heart was touched, and she decided to use her powers to help him. She knew that it was very dangerous to use her powers to help Juanito and to cross Don Ricardo, but she felt it was finally time to end her own torment. As Juanito cried, Blanca Flor took out her brush and began to brush his hair. She cradled Juanito in her arms and her soothing comfort soon put him to sleep . . .
[As soon as JUANITO is asleep, BLANCA FLOR gently puts his head down and leaves, taking the thimble with her.]

What did Gabriella predict?
Blanca Flor spat three times into the fire, indicating that she will assist them in their time of need. This act foreshadows her choice to flee Don Ricardo in order to save Juanito.
The spit is part of her power, which will aid them anytime Don Ricardo speaks her name (as we will witness in the next moments).
She would utilize her abilities to deceive Don Ricardo in order to get away from him.

what is the central idea of Stop and Frisk: Right or Wrong by Mike Kubic?
Answer:
The main theme of Stop and Frisk: Right or Wrong by Mike Kubic is the illegitimate use of government power, against the values on which the country was founded.

Who is the “doctor” that speaks to the judge before the hearing? What does our
knowledge about him say about Ponyboy and the hearing?
Answer:
The doctor is a psychologist. Our knowledge of him informs us that Ponyboy is in a state of psychological distress which may indicate psychological problems, moreover, we can see that the audience has the function of judging Ponyboy's psychology based on what the doctor says about him.
Explanation:
The doctor is a psychologist responsible for assessing the condition of the condition that Ponyboy is in. That's because Ponyboy is shaken and very depressed after a crime led to Johnny's death. In addition to having a very delicate psychologist, he is disturbed and in denial about everything that happened.
The audience needs to have a diagnosis of Ponyboy's psychology, so that it is possible to decide whether it is safe for him to live with Darry, or for the safety of everyone, it is best to leave them apart. For this reason, the presence of the doctor is necessary.

Which statement best reflects the shared theme of "We Grow Accustomed to the Dark" and "Sonnet 73"?
A)Awareness of uncertainty and mortality serve to make our lives more significant.
B)Twilight, sunset, and darkness affect our understanding of human nature.
C) The seasons of the year and the length of the days can influence our emotions.
D)Valuable and difficult lessons can be learned from our life experiences.
Answer:
The statement that best reflects the shared theme of both poems is:
A) Awareness of uncertainty and mortality serve to make our lives more significant.
Explanation:
Both poems use natural phenomena as a metaphor for life, difficulties, and death. In Dickinson's "We Grow Accustomed to the Dark", the speaker is talking of facing difficulties in life - the dark. When darkness comes, it confuses us for a moment, scares us into believing we won't be able to do a single thing. However, our eyes get used to it and, if we are brave, we'll move forward even when we cannot see well. In other words, no matter the hardship, life goes on. Even if it hurts, we eventually get over it or, at least, learn to accept it. We must have the courage to keep on going even when the future is not clear.
In Shakespeare's "Sonnet 73", the speaker uses seasons and the image of twilight to describe old age. Darkness, in this case, is death. According to the speaker, understanding your own and other people's mortality helps you appreciate life more. If you know someone will eventually be gone, you will be grateful for having them in your life now.
Having those summaries in mind, we can clearly conclude that the poems share the theme that uncertainty and mortality serve to make our lives more significant (letter A).

How does the main character Mark show resilience in the novel The Transall Saga? Give TWO examples from the story of Mark being resilient.
Be sure to describe, in detail, each situation in which Mark shows resilience and then explain why you believe this to be an example of resilience.
We can cite it as a situation in which Mark proved to be resilient at the very beginning of the narrative, when he enters a new world and is enslaved by the residents of that region. Instead of giving up his luck and regretting his condition, he uses this difficult time of slavery, to learn the language spoken by the local residents, so at least he would understand what his "masters" spoke, which could leave slavery more bearable. In addition, Mark uses his free time to plan an escape and he even manages to escape, but returns to warn the townspeople that she will be attacked.
Another moment when he shows that he is resilient is when he is being chased by an army, inside a forest in a world that he does not know very well. Even in a disadvantaged situation, he manages to turn things around, fight for his survival and manage to escape, always with great determination and confidence.
