How does the passage show unions?
IAS
What might be the purpose of the way the union is
described in this passage?
Lectures were given round the clock by the volunteer
teachers, some speaking thirteen or fourteen times a day
in the cheerless rooms of the rented halls. Clara Lemlich
remembered talking nonstop for what seemed like days at
a time; the shirtwaist strike had become her life. The
workers drank in their lessons, taking them so fervently
to heart that those opening days of the strike had the
spirit of revival meetings, the workers new converts to
some soul-saving religion. They would win, they had only
to stick together and wait it out. What a wonderful thing
the union was. They loved it, they gave themselves to it,
clasping it to their bosoms, putting all their faith in it and
in one another.

Why does the author use only Victor’s information in this passage? Victor is the one who wrote the novel. Readers enjoy multiple perspectives. It allows Victor to tell the story. It prevents readers from knowing the ending.
This question is missing the passage. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Frankenstein Chapter 2, Excerpt 2
By Mary Shelley
Victor Frankenstein continues recounting the influences that lead to his great experiment:
An accident again changed the current of my ideas. When I was about fifteen years old we had retired to our house near Belrive, when we witnessed a most violent and terrible thunderstorm. It advanced from behind the mountains of Jura, and the thunder burst at once with frightful loudness from various quarters of the heavens. I remained, while the storm lasted, watching its progress with curiosity and delight. As I stood at the door, on a sudden I beheld a stream of fire issue from an old and beautiful oak which stood about twenty yards from our house; and so soon as the dazzling light vanished, the oak had disappeared, and nothing remained but a blasted stump. When we visited it the next morning, we found the tree shattered in a singular manner. It was not splintered by the shock, but entirely reduced to thin ribbons of wood. I never beheld anything so utterly destroyed.
Why does the author use only Victor's information in this passage? (5 points)
A. Victor is the one who wrote the novel.
B. Readers enjoy multiple perspectives.
C. It allows Victor to tell the story.
D. It prevents readers from knowing the ending.
Answer:
The reason why the author uses Victor's information in this passage is:
C. It allows Victor to tell the story.
Explanation:
We can safely choose letter C through elimination. Letter A affirms that Victor wrote the novel. We need to be careful here. Victor is one of the narrators, but he is not the author, he is not the person who wrote the novel. That is Mary Shelley.
Letter B claims that readers enjoy multiple perspectives. There is no way for us to know that. It may or may not be true, but there is nothing to reveal Shelley thought of that when deciding on multiple narrators.
Letter D claims it prevents readers from knowing the ending. That is not necessarily true. If Shelley wishes to have the narrator tell readers the ending right from the start, she can do that. There is no rule to prevent such a thing from happening.
Therefore, we can conclude that using only Victor's information means the author wanted to tell this part of the story from his perspective, wanted to allow him to tell the story. Letter C is the best option.

Which of these best describes the narrator of a third person omniscient
story?
The narrator addresses the story to the reader.
There is no narrator in the story. It's told only in dialogue.
C
The narrator can only describe what one character thinks and feels.
D The narrator can describe what many characters think and feel
Answer:
The correct answer is option D The narrator can describe what many characters think and feel.
Explanation:
What characterizes a narrator of a third person omniscient is that he knows absolutely everything. The omniscient narrator tells us the story in 3rd person and is not a character in the story, but transmits it to us from outside. It is, as its name suggests, a narrator who functions like a god; he knows everything about the characters and the plots, he can predict the future, suppose and judge.
That is why the correct answer is option D.

Which of the following sentences contains a comma error? (5 points) a Despite his great hunger, Roger continued his fasting for world peace. b The little, old man could hardly stand up due to his painful arthritis. c I packed my warm sweaters, long pants, and heavy coat for our trip. d While I was working on my homework, there was a bad thunderstorm.
Answer:
B). The little, old man could hardly stand up due to his painful arthritis.
Explanation:
The Comma(,) is described as the punctuation mark that is employed to indicate separate parts of a sentence or between elements of a list. As per the grammatical rule, a comma(,) can be placed between two adjectives only when they are coordinative adjectives(implies that changing the order of adjectives would not affect the meaning of the sentence and the comma can be replaced with 'and').
As per the question, the second sentence i.e. 'the little....arthritis' contains a comma error as it wrongly places the comma(,) between the Cumulative adjectives('little' and 'old'). But here, this rule does not apply as neither the order of adjectives 'little' and 'old' can be changed nor the comma can be replaced with 'and' as it would directly affect the meaning of the sentence. Thus, this simple sentence does not require a comma and hence, option B is the correct answer.
Answer:
(B) The little, old man could hardly stand up due to his painful arthritis.
Explanation:
I read the sentence out loud and it made no sense to put the comma behind "The little".
What the sentence should probably be is "The little old man could hardly stand up due to his painful arthritis".
When to use commas :
Use a comma to separate independent clauses.
Use a comma after an introductory clause or phrase.
(ex. During the winter storm, blank blank blank.)
Use a comma between all items in a series.
(ex. I ate chips, fries, and apples.)
Use commas to set off nonrestrictive clauses.
Use a comma to set off appositives.
Use a comma to indicate the direct address.
Use commas to set off direct quotations.

A UN report later found that Major Roberto D’Aubuisson, had ordered Romero’s death. Thousands came to the funeral. The army fired into the crowd. 30 people died and hundreds were injured.

(MC)Read the sentence below and answer the following question: But he answered not a word; like the last column of some ruined temple, he remained standing mute and solitary in the middle of the otherwise deserted room. —Herman Melville, "Bartleby the Scrivener" In the bolded section, how does the addition of "not a word" change the impact of this introductory clause?
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Read the sentence below and answer the following question:
BUT HE ANSWERED NOT A WORD; like the last column of some ruined temple, he remained standing mute and solitary in the middle of the otherwise deserted room. —Herman Melville, "Bartleby the Scrivener"
In the bolded section, how does the addition of "not a word" change the impact of this introductory clause?
A. It emphasizes the lack of response: no answer was given at all.
B. It emphasizes the reference to solitary later in the sentence: "standing mute and solitary."
C. It suggests the narrator needed something: even a non-verbal response would have worked.
D. It suggests the feeling of isolation the narrator feels: the room is deserted.
Answer:
The addition of "not a word" changes the impact of the introductory clause because:
A. It emphasizes the lack of response: no answer was given at all.
Explanation:
Notice that the question wants us to focus on the introductory clause. This clause starts with "But he answered," which begins in an affirmative way. This sort of tricks the reader into thinking an answer was given. When the author adds "not a word," we suddenly have a negative sentence. This abrupt change from positive to negative emphasizes the lack of response. It is more powerful than simply writing, "But he didn't answer." We now feel the full of impact of the character not saying single word.
