How does fear contribute to the themes in "Once Upon A Time" and "A Very Old Man With
Enormous Wings"?
[RL.2, RL.9)
A. It causes the characters in the stories to act on behalf of others.
B. It causes the characters to act in response to an imminent threat.
C. It causes the characters in the stories to act in their own self-interest.
D. It causes the characters in the stories to seek help from others.
Answer:
C. It causes the characters in the stories to act in their own self-interest.
Explanation:
The book "Once Upon A Time" talks about a large family who are blessed to have material wealth as well as family love but because of a "perceived" threat of burglars by the grandmother, the family takes precaution to prevent burglary by installing alarms, making the walls higher, etc.
They eventually become trapped in the fear of what could happen instead of living in the moment and they lose the togetherness and peace they enjoyed as a family and became prisoners in their own home.
Their fear makes them act in their self interest and build larger walls and iron bars thereby making them prisoners.
In the book "A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings", story is told of a man Pelayo who had an encounter with an old man who couldn't move because of his enormous wings, he was advised to kill the old man but he could not bring himself to do it, instead he locks the old man inside a house with plans of setting him free on a raft but a lot of people troop to the house to see the old man with wings and they pay money to Pelayo and his wife to see the old man with wings. This makes Pelayo and his wife rich in a short time but they do not acknowledge the old man to be an angel because he did not look grand as they expected angels to be.
The community as well acknowledges that he has wings but does not fit into the perception of an angel.
Eventually, the old man with wings fly off.
Pelayo at first wanted to free the old man on a raft but because of his fear of losing the money he was making from people who came to see the old man he acted in his self interest and kept the old man prisoner till he flew away.

Chapter 29: Compare Heck Tate’s and Atticus’ explanations of Bob Ewell’s attack on Jem and Scout. Which explanation more closely aligns with your own feelings about Bob Ewell?
to kill a mocking bird. THX
Answer:
Atticus says that Bob Ewell must be crazy to attack Jem and scout, it is the only explanation he could think of that will justify a man to attack innocent children.
Heck Tate disagrees and says Bob Ewell was just mean and had enough liquor in him to make him brave enough to attack children, implying that he was a coward.
Of the two, Heck Tate's explanation is the most correct and the one that aligns with how I feel about Bob Ewell.
Explanation:
Atticus cannot understand what could possibly make a man want to kill children unless the man is mad, so he says Bob Ewell was crazy.
Heck Tate however, assures him that Bob Ewell was not crazy but just "mean as hell" and a coward on top of that, so his attack on the children was inevitable.
Heck Tate's explanation is the correct one.

What mood or atmosphere, do the sensory details help to create?
At night I would lie in bed and watch the show, how bees squeezed through the cracks of my bedroom wall and flew circles around the room, making that propeller sound, a high-pitched zzzzzz that hummed along my skin. I watched their wings shining like bits of chrome in the dark and felt the longing build in my chest. The way those bees flew, not even looking for a flower, just flying for the feel of the wind, split my heart down its seam. During the day I heard them tunneling through the walls of my bedroom, sounding like a radio tuned to static in the next room, and I imagined them in there turning the walls into honeycombs, with honey seeping out for me to taste.
A. Tense
B. Melancholy
C. Peaceful
D. Reflective
E. Mysterious
F. Poignant
G. Ominous
H. Whimsical
Answer:
D. Reflective
Explanation:
As you can see in the text above, upon hearing the humming of bees on your wall, the narrator begins to reflect on the sound and the presence of bees there. This reflection makes the narrator perceive feelings regarding the observation and admiration of the bees' ability. In addition, the narrator reflects on how the biology of the bees would interfere with the structure of his house, transforming the walls into honeycombs.
This all causes a reflective tone in the text, which can involve the reader in analyzes and interpretations about the text.

Explanation:
The hike began early in the morning on a dusty trail about a quarter of a mile from our campsite. The sun was warm and golden, but the wind was rough and icy. I was thankful for the layers of cotton clothing under my thin nylon jacket. As Jasper and I continued along the trail, the trees got closer together and the plants grew thicker. We could hear the faint sound of running water in the distance. Without talking, Jasper and I walked in a rhythmic, steady pace. I watched the trail so that I could avoid the tree roots and large rocks that dwelt in the pathway. I noticed how the sun painted the ground with blotches of white light amidst the shadows. Absorbed with my own thoughts, I didn’t realize that Jasper had stopped until he called my name.
I turned and went back to where he had crouched. His fingers were brushing the dirt off a flat stone surface. I looked closely and saw intricate symbols carved into the sparkling black stone. I helped Jasper clear the debris off the unusual stone. It was the size of a large garbage can lid. While Jasper dug around the edges, I tried to pry the stone loose. Finally, we worked together to lift the stone from the ground. To our amazement, there was a dark hole underneath the stone. Jasper shined his flashlight down into the hole and discovered a ladder, but he could not see how deep the hole was.
Does the description of the stone support the plot of the story?
A.
No, because it does not add important information to the story.
B.
No, because it makes the story too boring for readers to pay attention.
C.
Yes, because it helps readers to imagine the surroundings.
D.
Yes, because it builds the mystery about what the stone is covering.
