Answer:
Explanation:
n Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, the theme of appearance vs. reality is a prevalent one, and Boo is a perfect example of this theme—as is Tom Robinson, at least as far as the townspeople are concerned.
When Atticus decides to defend Tom Robinson for allegedly raping Mayella Ewell, the townspeople are angry. They anticipated that Tom would have a lawyer, but not one that would defend a man that most of them believe raped a white woman. Because Tom is black, he is guilty before he steps into the courtroom—as seen by the lynch mob that shows up at the jail while Atticus sits outside with a light, chair and newspaper. The mob has made up its mind that Tom is guilty, and they do not need a court trial to carry out the sentence they believe he should serve: to be hanged until dead.
"He in there, Mr. Finch?" a man said.
"He is," we heard Atticus answer, "and he's asleep. Don't wake him up."...
"You know what we want," another man said. "Get aside from the door, Mr. Finch."

THE PASSAGE IS CALLED FISH CHEEKS
FILL OUT THE INFORMATION PLEASE
Answer:
Somebody/ (main character): Amy
Wanted/ what did the main character mostly want?: Amy wanted the minister's family to not come over to their Christmas Eve dinner since she was ashamed of her culture.
But/ big problem: "When I found out that my parents had invited the minister's family over for Christmas Eve dinner, I cried. What would Robert think of our shabby Chinese Christmas?"
The big problem was that she found out that her parents had invited the minister's family over for Christmas Eve.
How does she try to solve the problem? She doesn't try to solve the problem, but she is embarrassed with what unfolds.
Then/ what is the solution?: After they leave, when her mother gives her a gift, Amy realizes that her mother understood her embarrassment. Her mother tells her that it's alright to want to fit in, but don't be ashamed of their culture.
What is the author's message?: The purpose of the story "Fish Cheeks" by Amy Tan is precisely as Tan's mother points out at the end of the story: that "the only shame is to have shame," speaking in terms of one's heritage. Due to a childish crush on the son of the American guests as well as insecurity, Tan becomes more and more ashamed as an evening meal goes on, constantly agonizing over how strange Chinese food and customs must seem to an American guest.
Summary: You can come up with that on your own.
Explanation:
As the plot in "Fish Cheeks" progresses, new characters and problems arise that the main character, Amy, struggles to handle. During the exposition, you learn that the main character is a young Chinese girl. The narrative takes place on Christmas eve, when the author was 14 years old.
Since she belonged to a Chinese family, she was worried about how the minister's family would perceive their Chinese way of celebrating Christmas. She was particularly worried because she fell in love with Robert, the minister's son. So, this part is where the tension or conflict of the story falls. The main character is having a problem about the upcoming Christmas Eve dinner. This aspect challenged the character on what she'll be doing during the event.
Amy's family is Chinese, and her mother is planning to cook all of the family's favorite dishes for Christmas Eve dinner: tofu, squid, fish cheeks, and other dishes that Amy is afraid that the minister's family will find strange. She feels that her mother is going out of her way to cook the dishes that will make them seem even stranger and more different. She is also worried about how the behavior and customs of her large extended family will be perceived.
When the guests arrive, Amy is embarrassed by how her relatives eat noisily with chopsticks and reach across the table into different dishes instead of passing them, as the minister's family would expect to do. Her mother proclaims that she made the fish cheeks because they were Amy's favorite. The worst part is when her father belches loudly after the meal, which is considered acceptable and even polite behavior in Chinese culture because it shows appreciation for the meal. Even though her father explains this to their guests, Amy is terribly embarrassed and cannot wait for the evening to be over.
When the guests have left, Amy's mother gives her an early Christmas gift: a skirt in the style that is popular among the other girls at school. Her mother tells her that it is okay to want to fit in with her appearance, but that she should always hold on to her culture. As Amy looks back, she realizes that her mother understood how she felt that night more than she realized. The dishes her mother cooked were actually her favorite, and she appreciates the lesson she learned about being proud of her culture.

The Fall of the House of Usher
By Edgar Allan Poe
Shaking off what must have been a dream, I scanned more narrowly the real aspect of the building. Its principal feature seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity. The discoloration of ages had been great. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior, hanging in a fine tangled web-work from the eaves. Yet all this was apart from any extraordinary dilapidation. No portion of the masonry had fallen; and there appeared to be a wild inconsistency between its still perfect adaptation of parts, and the crumbling condition of the individual stones. In this there was much that reminded me of the specious totality of old wood-work which has rotted for long years in some neglected vault, with no disturbance from the breath of the external air. Beyond this indication of extensive decay, however, the fabric gave little token of instability. Perhaps the eye of a scrutinizing observer might have discovered a barely perceptible fissure, which, extending from the roof of the building in front, made its way down the wall in a zigzag direction, until it became lost in the sullen waters of the tarn.
Roderick Usher's poem
By Edgar Allan Poe
I. In the greenest of our valleys,
By good angels tenanted,
Once a fair and stately palace—
Radiant palace—reared its head.
In the monarch Thought's dominion—
It stood there!
Never seraph spread a pinion
Over fabric half so fair.
II. Banners yellow, glorious, golden,
On its roof did float and flow;
(This—all this—was in the olden
Time long ago);
And every gentle air that dallied,
In that sweet day,
Along the ramparts plumed and pallid,
A winged odor went away.
...
V. And, round about his home, the glory
That blushed and bloomed
Is but a dim-remembered story
Of the old time entombed.
VI. And travellers now within that valley,
Through the red-litten windows see
Vast forms that move fantastically
To a discordant melody;
While, like a rapid ghastly river,
Through the pale door,
A hideous throng rush out forever,
And laugh—but smile no more.

At her lab she mixed the alginate powder with water to form
a paste. Standing in front of a mirror, she scooped up a
blob and spread it on her tongue. She pressed it down with
her fingers to get out any air bubbles. Not bad, she
thought Tastes just like spearmint. She decided to make
an extra-thick mold to make it easier to peel off. So, she
added another gloopy blog—and another
With her thickened tongue hanging out, Diane padded
around the lab doing odds and ends while the material set.
After about 10 minutes, she peeled off the alginate slowly
and carefully. It was fragile-bendable and easy to tear-
but it made an excellent impression of her tongue.

(1) There are many examples of grand architecture in the world. (2) Some of the most impressive are buildings of the ancient city called Petra in Jordan. (3) Petra is the Greek word for "rock." (4) The early inhabitants of Petra—the Nabataeans—did not use wood or brick to make the structures, but instead, they carved them right out of the desert sandstone cliffs.
(5) Two thousand years ago, Petra was an important center of activity where caravans of travelers would pass through on their way to trade goods in other regions. (6) Their power and riches can still be seen today in the remains of their city.
(7) Although Petra was built in a rugged, dry desert, the Nabataeans made wise plans for collecting and storing water. (8) This water system was made of cisterns, or reservoirs, that held water and channels that directed water from one place to another.
(9) After thriving for about 1,000 years, Petra began to decline. (10) The trade routes that had once gone through the city were changed to go toward the sea. (11) In addition, an earthquake devastated the area. (12) The ruins of the city were rediscovered in the 1800s by a European traveler who disguised himself as a local Bedouin, or local Middle Eastern person, to find the remote location.
(13) Today, modern travelers can visit Petra and see its majesty in person; tours are available by foot, donkey, or camel. (14) Much of Petra remains to be seen; archaeologists have uncovered only 15 percent of it. (15) The rest of this city is still "lost" or underground.
Where would the following sentence best fit in the passage?
The Nabataeans themselves were intelligent and wealthy traders.
A. after sentence 5 B. after sentence 14 C. after sentence 1
D. after sentence 12
Answer:
A. After sentence 5

Who settled in America colonies and why
Answer:
The Spanish were among the first Europeans to explore the New World and the first to settle in what is now the United States.
Explanation:
The priority locations for Spanish occupation were the Caribbean islands, South America, and Mexico. Expanding to the north and planting settlements in "Florida" was a low priority.
The motivations for colonial expansion were trade and the spread of the Catholic faith through indigenous conversions. Racial mixing was a central process in the Spanish colonization of the Americas, and ultimately led to the Latin American identity, which combines African, Hispanic, and Native American cultures.

Is Romeo and Juliet’s love real? Why or why not? Explain using a full paragraph
Answer:
Yes, while the two characters may have initially fell for each other due to a mixture of convenience and lust, Romeo and Juliet's language shows their passion maturing into real love. In the opening scenes, Romeo makes Benvolio and Mercutio laugh with his clichés about love.
Explanation:
Answer:
I don't know if they had a specific answer in mind, but I can't see how it isn't.
The tragedy of Romeo and Juliet is their love for each other.They come from families who hate each other, but are willing to put past their families' hatred and move forward. At the end of the play, when Romeo thinks juliet has died, he chooses to join her in death (even though she is actually alive at the time, but he doesn't know) When Juliet finds Romeo dead, we can see that she reciprocates his love by also choosing to die with him.
I hope this works :)
Most people remember Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as reformers who practiced non-violent forms of protest and advocacy. Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a wave of change that was long overdue. But the practice of non-violent protest, or civil disobedience, started long before either Gandhi or King. It began with a quiet, shy poet who is best known for writing a lot about a pond. Henry David Thoreau lived from 1817 until 1862, mainly in the area of Concord, Massachusetts. The issue that would tear the country apart in the 1860s had already begun dividing the nation. Thoreau was only 14 when Nat Turner led the slave rebellion in Virginia and was later hanged. In his late 20s, Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public, echoing the voices of freedmen like Frederick Douglass and Lewis Hayden. Thoreau believed that a government that supported slavery was corrupt and immoral. He was also deeply suspicious of government. For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person. It was basically a tax on one's body. After not paying for years, he was at last arrested. He spent only one night in jail, however, as a relative paid the tax for him. He was reportedly furious that any tax was paid on his behalf. It was this experience that Thoreau wrote about in an essay called "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, he argued that being moral and just came before allegiance to government. He wrote "If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." He also felt that voting was not enough to ensure that the right thing be done. He wrote that "even voting for the right is doing nothing for it… A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance…" He felt that one had a moral responsibility to resist unjust laws. Which line from Part 1 best explains Thoreau's view on government?
Select one: a. Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public
b. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person
c. Being moral and just came before allegiance to government
d. A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance…
C. is the answer. Hope this helps! (sorry I'm a little late haha)
How does Mark Twain use dramatic irony to create humor in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer? Give at least one specific example.
Answer: Dramatic irony is when the characters are oblivious to something that the audience knows. This understanding among the audience makes the dialogues of the characters have a different meaning that creates humor or suspense.
Mark Twain portrayed the role of a deadpan narrator who had no idea that his narration was humorous. His ignorance or innocence made the audience laugh. He further makes them laugh by saying whether the audience was tickled by what he had said.
Explanation:
Dramatic irony is when the characters are oblivious to something that the audience knows. This understanding among the audience makes the dialogues of the characters have a different meaning that creates humor or suspense.
What is Irony?Every time someone says or does something that differs from what they (or we) expect them to say or do, irony occurs in both literature and everyday life.
There are numerous types of irony, just as there are countless ways to misread the universe [sorry kids]. The verbal irony, dramatic irony, and situational irony are the three types you'll most frequently encounter in literary classes.
When a speaker or narrator says something that is different from what they mean, what they intend, or what the context calls for, verbal irony has occurred. This distinction is frequently exploited in well-known internet jokes, as in this instance.
Therefore, Dramatic irony is when the characters are oblivious to something that the audience knows. This understanding among the audience makes the dialogues of the characters have a different meaning that creates humor or suspense.
