a. It represents only a small number of Americans.
b. It encourages people to disconnect from reality.
c. It’s less realistic than it pretends to be.
d. It is far too violent for most audiences.
Answer: c. It’s less realistic than it pretends to be.
Explanation:
Reality television claims to follow the real lives of individuals as they go about their daily lives. The truth is however, it is not always realistic and a lot of the things that happen in these shows are not real.
Shows only sell when there are dramatic scenes that pull crowds and in real life, drama does not always happen. Reality shows are therefore forced to produce their own dram and pass it off as real events so that they can get more viewers.

Write a paragraph describing the main conflict in the story and explaining how it demonstrates different cultural perspectives (not the sample answer and the story is “Two Kinds” by Amy Tan)
Answer and Explanation:
"Two Kinds" is a short story by Amy Tan, an American author born in 1959. Tan is famous for her short stories in which Chinese immigrant families are portrayed.
In "Two Kinds," the main conflict is character vs. character, more specifically mother vs. daughter. Jing-mei, also called June, is the daughter of Chinese immigrant Suyuan. The conflict revolves around the differences between the cultures of the two. Suyuan understands tradition and obedience as being essential in the relationship between parents and children. She also believes excellence must be achieved in whatever area or field.
June, on the other hand, was born in America and has already embodied different values from her mother's. She does not understand the need to strive for perfection or to obey blindly. She wants to be free to be herself and to do what she wants, even if it means being mediocre.
The tension between the two starts to build when Suyuan demands that June becomes a child prodigy. At first, June is excited about the idea. With time, she realizes it is no fun to be a prodigy, and that it demands a lot of effort. The main conflict arrives with the piano lessons and the recital. June is forced to learn to play the piano, but she does it halfheartedly. At the recital, all she does is embarrass herself and her family by performing badly. With her performance, she has made her statement: she has the right to be mediocre, and no one can force her to be anything she does not want to.

Elaborate on the central idea about social classes that Countee Cullen depicts in his poem "For a Lady I Know." Provide textual evidence for your answer.
Answer:
In his poem "For a Lady I Know," Countee Cullen depicts the clash between the upper and lower classes of society. The poem is assumed to be about upper-class white Americans who treat African Americans poorly. He points out the audacity of the upper class to presume that African Americans would continue to wait on them forever, even after death:
She even thinks that up in heaven
Her class lies late and snores
While poor black cherubs rise at seven
To do celestial chores.
This poem suggests that white Americans don’t want to help improve the lifestyle of poor African Americans but are comfortable with the minority races serving them forever.

Read this passage from chapter 5 of The Prince.
There are, for example, the Spartans and the Romans. The Spartans held Athens and Thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. The Romans, in order to hold Capua, Carthage, and Numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. They wished to hold Greece as the Spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. So to hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain them otherwise than by ruining them. And he who becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. And whatever you may do or provide against, they never forget that name or their privileges unless they are disunited or dispersed, but at every chance they immediately rally to them, as Pisa after the hundred years she had been held in bondage by the Florentines.
What text evidence supports Machiavelli’s primary purpose to persuade readers that a conquering prince must destroy a former republic if he hopes to hold it? Select three options.
A. the list of cities Rome and Sparta conquered
B. the portrayal of Greece as being held by Sparta
C. the explanation of how Rome held Capua, Carthage, and Numantia
D. the description of liberty as a rallying cry for rebellion in former republics
E. the example of the Florentines losing control over Pisa
