The Man that corrupted Hadleyburg
by Mark Twain (adapted excerpt)
At eleven Edward arrived, and while his wife was saying "I am so glad you've comer" he was saying, "I am so tired-tired clear out it is dreadful
to be poor, and have to make these dismal Journeys at my time of life. Always at the grind, grind, grind, on a salary, and he sitting at home in his
slippers, rich and comfortable."
"I am so sorry for you, Edward, you know that; but be comforted; we have our livelihood, we have our good name-"
"Yes, Mary, and that is everything. Don't mind my talk-It's just a moment's irritation and doesn't mean anything. Kiss me--there, it's all gone
now, and I am not complaining any more. What have you been getting? What's In the sack?"
Then his wife told him the great secret. It dazed him for a moment; then he said: "it welghs a hundred and sixty pounds?
Why, Mary, It's forty thousand dollars--think of it-a whole fortunel Not ten men in this village are worth that much. Give me the paper." He
skimmed through it and said: "Isn't it an adventurel Why, It's a romance; It's like the Impossible things one reads about in books, and never sees

He tapped his old wife on the cheek, and said humorously, "Why, we're rich, Mary. rich; all we've got to do is to bury the money and burn the papers. If the gambler ever comes to Inquire, we'll merely look coldly upon him and say: "What is this nonsense you are talking? We have never heard of you and your sack of gold before," and then he would look foolish, and
Explanation:
The point at which the poor man who was thought to be honest began scheming on ways to hide the money and burn the papers connotes a point of moral transformation. Instead of maintaining his honest stance with his poor wife, he allowed the excitement of having so much money to becloud his sense of reasoning. Thus, he compromised on his moral integrity. This proves that the true nature of a man is revealed when faced with tempting circumstances.
Sympathy
by Paul Dunbar
I know what the caged bird feels, alas!
When the sun is bright on the upland slopes;
When the wind stirs soft through the springing grass,
And the river flows like a stream of glass;
When the first bird sings and the first bud opes,
And the faint perfume from its chalice steals—
I know what the caged bird feels!
I know why the caged bird beats his wing
Till its blood is red on the cruel bars;
For he must fly back to his perch and cling
When he fain would be on the bough a-swing;
And a pain still throbs in the old, old scars
And they pulse again with a keener sting—
I know why he beats his wing!
I know why the caged bird sings, ah me,
When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,—
When he beats his bars and he would be free;
It is not a carol of joy or glee,
But a prayer that he sends from his heart’s deep core,
But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings—
I know why the caged bird sings!

What's the answer to the picture taken
The correct answer is D. Get as closer to the subject as possible.
Explanation
The text is about the composition of a photograph and the methods to make it suitable depending on the requirements and taste of the person taking the photos. According to the author, the objects or subject to be captured in the photo must also be taken into account, and from this, the distance between the photographer and the object is essential "farther you are, the more of the surroundings will be included in your photo". He later talks about the importance of the orientation and angle of the photo to improve the composition of the photo. According to the above, if a photographer only wants to capture the subject in a photo, he must take the photo from a very close distance. So the answer is D. Get as closer to the subject as possible.

Answer:
When the person clearly states his opinion and provides specific examples - Most likely to persuade.
The person is older than the reader - Somewhat likely to persuade.
When the person shouts, uses lots of exclamation points, or accuses anyone who doesn't agree of being ignorant - Not likely to persuade.
Explanation:
The above are correct. I have been able to match the element of argument with the likelihood that it will persuade a reader.
When opinions are clearly stated and communicated and backed up with specific examples, it is most likely to persuade. The specific examples provided reinforces and solidifies the person's opinion. The older person can persuade if the younger reader knows of the person's expertise and experience.
Using shouting and accusation will not lead to any form of persuasion.

This was an army, trained to fight on horseback
or, where the ground required, on foot. They came
with dawn over that terrain like the leaves
and blades of spring. So doom appeared to us,
dark word of Zeus for us, our evil days.
My men stood up and made a fight of it—
backed on the ships, with lances kept in play,
from bright morning through the blaze of noon
so holding our beach, although so far outnumbered;
but when the sun passed toward unyoking time,
then the Achaeans, one by one, gave way.

"Rainsford!" screamed the general. "How in God's name did you get here?"
"Swam," said Rainsford. "I found it quicker than walking through the jungle."
The general sucked in his breath and smiled. "I congratulate you," he said. "You have won the game."
Rainsford did not smile. "I am still a beast at bay," he said, in a low, hoarse voice. "Get ready, General Zaroff."
The general made one of his deepest bows. "I see," he said. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed. On guard, Rainsford." . . .
He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided.

if you read more we learn more if we learn more we become smarter write an essay on the importance of reading
Answer:
‘Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers’. -Charles W. Elio-
A child's reading skills are important to their success in school as they will allow them to access the breadth of the curriculum and improve their communication and language skills. In addition, reading can be a fun and imaginative time for children, which opens doors to all kinds of new worlds for them.
As part of our curriculum review at NAISAK, we have identified ‘reading’ as a key area for development and will be included in the school’s strategic development plan. With a busy timetable, teachers currently do not have enough time to listen to their children read as much as they would like to. That said, from today we have made some adjustments to the start of the day with the registration period being extended to 20 minutes, with a slightly shorter first lesson. This will allow students from across the Primary Stage to all start their day reading to either their teacher, learning support assistant, buddy or on their own. Additionally, all Primary teachers, including the Leadership Team, have new reading timetables allowing them to listen to individual readers who have been identified as needing extra support for a number of hours per week. We are hopeful that the changes made to both the students and teachers’ timetables will prove impactful and will help to accelerate reading progress across the Primary School. We will continue to update you over the coming term with further reading initiatives.
Why is reading so important?
Studies show that reading for pleasure makes a big difference to children’s educational performance. Likewise, evidence suggests that children who read for enjoyment every day not only perform better in reading tests than those who do not, but also develop a broader vocabulary, increased general knowledge and a better understanding of other cultures.
In fact, reading for pleasure is more likely to determine whether a child does well at school than their social or economic background.
What difference can I make as a parent?
You can make a huge difference! Parents are the most important educators in a child’s life – even more important than their teachers – and it is never too early to start reading together.
Even before they were born, babies learn to recognise their parents' voices. Reading to your baby from birth, even for just a few minutes a day, gives them the comfort of hearing your voice and increases their exposure to language.

Which sentence in this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence indicates that the colonists did not wish to remain hostile toward Great Britain in the future? in every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends
