Answer:
- We must learn to manage the harmful effects of technology.
Explanation:
The statement 'we must learn to mange the harmful effects/impacts of technology' most adequately describes Jordan's interpretation regarding uses of technology. It is clearly reflected from the very first paragraph where he says 'impacts of technology on our life and how it is not only changing the way we do things, but our brains too' and poses the question 'for better or worse?' He asserts the use of technology like internet and video games can be 'distracting' which makes the students loose focus that impairs their mental ability to concentrate. Thus, he suggests that one needs to manage the use of technology and maintain a balance between the two(brain and technology) in order to maximize the efficiency/potential of his/her brain.

B. It captures the reader’s attention with a surprising statement.
C. It describes what the author claims and will be persuading the reader of.

Answer:
C.
Explanation:
A thesis statement can be defined as a statement that summarizes the main purpose or claim of an essay or a research paper. A thesis statement usually appears at the end of the first paragraph or the introductory paragraph. A thesis statement helps the readers to know what they should expect from the essay or the research paper. A thesis statement describes the main purpose and the claims that the author is making. And the idea on which he/she is going to persuade the readers. A good thesis statement is easily identifiable by the readers.
So, the correct answer is option C.
Which element of Endgame helps establish the idea of circularity?
O
A. Clov kills the flea and the rat
O
B. There are two windows, not just one.
O C. Beckett begins with the idea of endings.
O D. Hamm walks around and around the chess board.
Answer:
C). Beckett begins with the idea of endings.
Explanation:
'Endgame' by Samuel Beckett works upon the existentialist philosophy and belongs to the 'theater of absurd.' It is often considered as the follow up of Beckett's classic work 'Waiting for Godot.'
As per the question, the play authorizes the idea of circularity as the play begins and ends on the same note i.e. 'intertwining of beginning and end.' It is based upon the key idea of 'hopelessness' and the characters are endlessly waiting for 'nothing' but death. Clove internally feels 'he need to live' and plans of leaving but could not and goes back to the same situation(reflects absurdity and nothingness). Thus, the entire play moves around this very idea and hence, option C is the correct answer.

case study: discrimination in the workplace by Elaine E.Englehardt
Are her co-workers correct in their evaluation?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Marian co-workers are not correct in their evaluation because of the following reason.
We are talking about a black woman called Marian, who studied at Loyola University. She was hired by a company to be a manager. She was notably smarter than other peers, and regarding her performance in the workplace, she was scored high. But being the only African American woman in the office, she felt alone. But one day she heard where her peers were complaining to the supervisor about her lack of qualifications, and they also mentioned that Marian had an unpleasant personality. Of course, this made Marian angry and she is thinking of quitting.
That is why Marian co-workers are not correct in their evaluation because they are taking things personally. They are envious of her performance and abilities. Her co-workers feel they are being threatened for her skills. And probably, they did not like the fact that she is a black woman, which makes things worse.

Who orders that the wedding preparations be converted to funeral preparations?
A. Friar Laurence
B. Romeo
C. Juliet
D. Nurse
E. Lord Capulet
F. Lady Capulet
G. Paris
H. Tybalt
Answer:
E. Lord Capulet.
Explanation:
William Shakespeare's Romeo and Ju liet revolves around the love story of Romeo and Ju liet who came from feuding families. Their illegal love led to their deaths but in this act of dying for their true love, they showed that true love matters the most and also healed the rift between their families.
In Act IV of the play, Ju liet was supposed to marry Paris but she committed su icide by consuming poison, which in truth, was just a sleeping potion that Friar Lawrence had planned alongside them in order to allow Romeo to steal her and go far away. On the proposed day of her wedding, she was found dead. It is in scene v where her father Lord Capulet declared-
"All things that we ordained festival
Turn from their office to black funeral.
Our instruments to melancholy bells,
Our wedding cheer to a sad burial feast.
Our solemn hymns to sullen dirges change,
Our bridal flowers serve for a buried corse,
And all things change them to the contrary."
