Answer:
This deeply earnest drama follows a familiar storyline. An idealistic young teacher inspires her "at-risk" urban students to respect each other and themselves. She's white, they're mostly of color; she's clueless about their harsh lives, they initially resent her cluelessness but learn to appreciate her efforts to understand them. It's this last part that makes director Richard LaGravenese's film work, despite its many clichés. Erin Gruwell (Hilary Swank) makes a difference by asking her students to talk to her and each other and acting on what they say. The plot is predictable, the actors too old to play high school students, and the pacing too slow. And really, the camera circles around deep-thinking face a few too many times. But Freedom Writers also argues for listening to teenagers. That in itself makes it a rare and close-to-wonderful thing.

Why do you think this book to kill mockingbird won Pulitzer within a year of its publication?
Answer:
Explanation:
Harper Lee was the first author to win the Pulitzer Prize for her first novel ever, To Kill the Mockingbird.
She wrote a spectacular piece of literature that had all the characteristics of the southern novel, with its setting of a quiet small town. Yet, as the story progresses, we see the introduction of something rather different – a courtroom drama, a critique of the social prejudices, and a coming-of-age story. Lee created a unique story that is, even today, a mark of her time and a symbol of battle. Her novel is brave and affectionate, original and exceptional.
Because of this talent to bend the familiar genre into something extraordinary and never-seen-before, she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 1, excerpt
By Lewis Carroll
Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged table, all made of solid glass; there was nothing on it except a tiny golden key, and Alice's first thought was that it might belong to one of the doors of the hall; but, alas! either the locks were too large, or the key was too small, but at any rate it would not open any of them. However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before, and behind it was a little door about fifteen inches high: she tried the little golden key in the lock, and to her great delight it fitted!
Alice opened the door and found that it led into a small passage, not much larger than a rat-hole: she knelt down and looked along the passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw. How she longed to get out of that dark hall, and wander about among those beds of bright flowers and those cool fountains, but she could not even get her head though the doorway; "and even if my head would go through," thought poor Alice, "it would be of very little use without my shoulders. Oh, how I wish I could shut up like a telescope! I think I could, if I only know how to begin." For, you see, so many out-of-the-way things had happened lately, that Alice had begun to think that very few things indeed were really impossible.
How does this scene develop the idea that Alice is not the same size as the world she is in? Use specific information and lines from the text to write your answer.
Answer:
Explanation:
1) alice in the second paragraph explains that she had seen a small door,
2) second para explains that alice had also fallen into a small rabbit hole

2. Relate a life experience wherein "bayanihan" is apparent in your community
Answer and Explanation:
Since the Coronavirus arrived in my community, me and people my age, we started going to the houses where the elderly lived alone, asking if they needed us to buy something from the market or the pharmacy for them. We did this, because the elderly are more vulnerable to coronavirus and it was extremely dangerous for them to go to the market, so we made ourselves available to practice this act of solidarity and help these people. With that I was able to perceive a strong presence of "bayanihan" in my community, since we were working in the name of solidarity and in unity.
A life experience wherein "bayanihan" is apparent in your community so during marriage.
Bayanihan is a word that means the spirit of cooperation and unity in the community. It is an aspect of the culture of the Philippines and it means working together to achieve a common goal.During a marriage, there's a spirit of unity exhibited. For people to get married, there must be cooperation and unity in both families. In this case, bayanihan is apparent as there's an understanding between the couples and their family members.Read related link on:

WHAT IS THIS..............................??
Read the paragraph from the section "For Example ..."
Opening the door to asking and answering meaningful questions doesn't mean that you will end up agreeing with someone. But you might get a clearer idea of the reasons behind why you disagree. This opens an important window for discussing scientific concepts that might be difficult or unpleasant to argue about.
What conclusion is BEST supported by this paragraph?
A
How much you end up agreeing or disagreeing with someone depends on how good the questions you ask are.
B
Asking someone questions about their point of view can help you to develop a stronger argument to defeat them.
C
Learning to ask questions about other people's views can lead to a deeper understanding of important issues.
D
Some conversations are pointless because people will never learn to agree about larger scientific concepts.
Answer:
C is much more understandable and fitting
Directions: Please answer the following questions in paragraphs of 4-5 sentences each.
1. According to the article, many states’ policies dictate that an adolescent offender’s age cannot be taken into account: “‘Judges can't consider it. Juries can't consider it. No one can consider it’” (Paragraph 10). Why do you think such a law exists in the first place? Is this a fair law? In the context of this article, what is fair? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.
2. Charles Dutton argues that, “‘If there's anyone who still has a modicum of redemption left in their life, it's a juvenile’” (Paragraph 22). In the context of this article, what does it mean to be grown up? Do you think the juvenile offenders are being totally treated as if they were adults? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.
The juvenile offenders are being totally treated as if they were adults because juvenile people are different from adult proceedings are the terms that courts use for juvenile offenders versus adult offenders.
Why do you think such a law exists in the first place?1. It isn’t a fair law because teenagers sometimes don’t know what they are doing, and also they should consider their age because they are not adults, they are teens so they are still discovering the world around them, and we are in the 21st century, we are not back into history, so that is why it isn’t a fair law.
2. Being grown up means a lot of responsibilities that some teens don’t have, and for me that’s putting a lot of pressure on them, also they shouldn’t be treating them like adults because they are kids, who should focus on their education and not that much on life problems.

Which feminist perspective would likely emphasize the degree to which Gertrude’s desire to maintain her power and status motivated her decision to marry her husband’s murderer?
postructuralist
phenomenological
radical
liberal
Answer:
I think its Liberal
Explanation:
Because this the definition of liberal: open to new behavior or opinions and willing to discard traditional values. It was not seen as ok by hamlet for his mother to remarry so quickly
It is because of the phenomenological feminist perspective, which emphasizes Gertrude’s desire to maintain her power and status motivated her decision to marry her husband’s murderer. Hence, Option B is correct.
What is perspective?
The way one views things is called their perspective. The depth or distance of an object on paper can also be altered with this artistic approach. Some of the examples are the farmer's perspective on the absence of rain, an artwork in which the railroad lines seem to curve into the horizon, and many more.
When it is about the phenomenological perspective, then the discipline of phenomenology investigates the first-person structures of consciousness. It can also be stated as an experience of or about some object, the intentionality, or being oriented toward something.
Thus, Option B is correct.
