Explanation:
Which of the following best describes how the narrator describes nature, especially the cold?AThe narrator describes the cold as a pervasive, almost personified force.BThe narrator describes nature constantly changing and unpredictable.CThe narrator describes nature, even the dog, as indifferent to the struggles of the man.DThe narrator describes the cold as merely an element that can be easily conquered by men and fire.
This question is in reference to the short story "To Build a Fire", by Jack London.
Answer:
The options best suited for the way the narrator describes nature and the cold is:
C. The narrator describes nature, even the dog, as indifferent to the struggles of the man.
Explanation:
"To Build a Fire" is a short story by author Jack London in which a man learns a most valuable lesson at a very high cost. The main character ignores how powerful nature is, thinking too much of his own skills. He is new to the winter at the Yukon region and naive enough to forget his own weaknesses as a human being.
The narrator in the story makes it clear that nature is not concerned with man. Nature has no mind, it simply is, in a powerful manner. It is man who wishes to conquer nature but to no avail. Throughout the story, the man thinks to himself that "it is certainly cold". That's it. Simply put, no exaggeration, no personification.
The dog that accompanies the man, for instance, is merely confused by the man's lack of fear. The dog understands danger better than the man. Notice that it is indifferent toward this man. What concerns it is survival. The same goes for nature. It is relentless, unstoppable. The cold is still cold, even if it kills someone:
Never in the dog’s experience had it known a man to sit like that in the snow and make no fire. As the evening grew darker, its eager longing for the fire mastered it. [...] Later, the dog howled loudly. And still later it moved close to the man and caught the smell of death. This made the animal back away. A little longer it delayed, howling under the stars that leaped and danced and shone brightly in the cold sky. Then it turned and ran along the trail toward the camp it knew, where there were the other food providers and fire providers.

Choose the sentence with the correct punctuation.
A. There are four parts to a plant; roots, stem, leaves, and flower.
B. You need to do three chores: vacuum the front room, fold the laundry, and make your bed.
C. Dear Mr. Carter;
D. I love reading all types of books; mystery, horror, suspense, and biographies.
Answer:
Explanation:
A is incorrect. A semicolon is used to separate two clauses that are major clauses (ie both could stand alone). A semicolon has the same meaning as "and." the words after plant make a list. The list in this case is
rootsstemleavesflowers (which should be plural).B is correct.
C is actually a tough one. When I was taking this grammar, we were taught to use a colon if it was a business letter and a comma if it was friendly. A semicolon is not correct according to my usage.
D is the same as A. There is a list involved. You should be using a colon.

Explanation:
The Barrymore family is an important family in the field of acting, which includes famous actors such as John Drew Barrymore, Diana Blanche Barrymore, and Drew Barrymore. In the case of Drew Barrymore, she is one of the youngest actresses of this family and was born on 1975. Besides this, Drew Barrymore is the daughter of John Drew Barrymore who was born in 1932, the granddaughter of John Barrymore who was born in 1882 and the great-granddaughter of Maurice Barrymore who was born in 1849 and migrated to the United States in 1874. This means Drew Barrymore was born 101 years after her great-grandfather Maurice immigrated to America, and therefore it is false she was born exactly 100 years after this event.
Answer:
C.) Drew Barrymore was born exactly 100 years after her great-grandfather, Maurice, immigrated to America.

What is a short-term benefit for a company to regularly keeping wages low?
Employees find high job satisfaction.
Companies can expect a high turn-over.
Employees will become demoralized.
The company can keep costs to a minimum.
Answer:
The company can keep costs to a minimum.
Explanation:
This is the advantage that such a strategy would have for a company in the short-term. A company that regularly keeps wages low is likely to save money initially. However, this strategy is not a successful one in the long term. Such a company would most likely have employees who are unhappy or unsatisfied with their job. It would also lead to a high turn-over due to employees being demoralized.

Read the excerpts from Team Moon and the NASA article.
But now, because the landing was taking far longer than planned, the fuel was almost gone. Mission Control wanted Neil to take as much time as he needed and fly the LM as near empty as possible only because they wanted him to make the landing. But if he ran out of fuel above the surface, in all likelihood the LM would crash onto the moon.
When it comes time to set Eagle down in the Sea of Tranquility, Armstrong improvises, manually piloting the ship past an area littered with boulders. During the final seconds of descent, Eagle's computer is sounding alarms.
A reader can best combine the information in the excerpts to
A. understand that Neil Armstrong had to improvise the landing of the LM, named Eagle, while it was dangerously low on fuel.
B. understand that Neil Armstrong was not in control of the LM, named Eagle, while it was being landed on the moon.
C. understand that Neil Armstrong would crash the LM, named Eagle, if he ran out of fuel above the moon’s surface.
D. understand that Neil Armstrong had to pilot the LM, named Eagle, past an area on the moon littered with boulders.

How is the excerpt an example of irony? Harrison
Answer:
A. Handicapping intelligence contradicts expectations because intelligence is normally considered a positive attribute.
Explanation:
According to a different source, this question refers to the following passage of "Harrison Bergeron":
"And George, while his intelligence was way above normal, had a little mental handicap radio in his ear. He was required by law to wear it at all times. It was tuned to a government transmitter. Every twenty seconds or so, the transmitter would send out some sharp noise to keep people like George from taking unfair advantage of their brains."
A. Handicapping intelligence contradicts expectations because intelligence is normally considered a positive attribute.
B. Handicapping intelligence is pointless because determining whether one’s intelligence is above normal is a matter of opinion.
C. If George were really that intelligent, he would remove the device from his ear.
D. The mental handicap radio is incapable of correcting physical advantages.
Irony is a literary device in which the outcome of the story is the opposite from what the reader would normally expect. In this case, the reader would normally assume that the government would consider intelligence to be a positive quality. Moreover, we would assume that the government would not want to interfere with it. However, in this society, the government wants people to be less intelligent, and goes to great lengths in order to achieve it.
