B. She is determined to fight for liberty and justice regardless of how she
has been treated.
C. She is feeling deeply patriotic as she recites the pledge of allegiance.
D. She realizes that the pledge of allegiance is a lie and has lost all hope.

Answer: B I think

Explanation: Because she wanted the USA to be free and she wanted to be able to win that Art School scholarship.

The most likely reason for Nancy Lee's tears as she recites the pledge of allegiance at the end of the story was that she is determined to fight for liberty and justice regardless of how she has been treated. The correct option is (B).

Nancy Lee Johnson, a high school student of African descent and aspiring artist, is the subject of Langston Hughes' short story "One Friday Morning.

Nancy Lee anticipates winning a scholarship for college that will be given in a painting competition. She is confident that her painting is good even though she is unsure if she will actually win.

Since the text focuses on racism when high school student Nancy Lee Johnson is denied the Artist Club scholarship because she is colored, discrimination is without a doubt the main theme of the short story.

Therefore, Nancy Lee's tears as she recites the oath of allegiance at the conclusion of the tale are most likely due to her determination to battle for liberty and justice regardless of how she has been treated.

We had trouble finding our way through the fog. Nights at sea were dark, but nights spent sailing through bad weather were exceptionally dark. It was when we looked up and saw the St. Elmo's fire burning around our mast that we knew we had to keep going. We were all amazed by this natural phenomenon caused by static electricity clinging to the ship's mast. It appeared to light our way in the blackest of nights, and, by its light, we fought against the storm and made our way into the marina. We all hoped that we'd never face something that scary again, but I know that if I must, I have Mother Nature's light giving me the power to persevere.

In this passage, the St. Elmo's Fire is a symbol of
A.
endurance because it boosts the sailors' strength.
B.
despair because it breaks the sailors' hearts.
C.
ignorance because it shows the sailors' neglect.
D.
kindness because it warms the sailors' bodies.

Read the passage from Beowulf.

Beowulf, Ecgtheow’s son, replied:
"Well, friend Unferth, you have had your say
about Breca and me. But it was mostly beer
that was doing the talking. The truth is this:
when the going was heavy in those high waves,
I was the strongest swimmer of all.
We’d been children together and we grew up
daring ourselves to outdo each other,
boasting and urging each other to risk
our lives on the sea.

How many stanzas does Frederick Douglass poem have

In the 1800s, the United States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, a fast development of society following the introduction of machines. The United States was slower than Great Britain to fully embrace the changes. Yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in American urban areas. Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. The abundance caused food prices to fall. The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work in northern factories as a way to support their families. Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas. As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization. In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S. residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities with more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. Philadelphia and New York City were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents. The urbanization of the United States quickened due to technology improvements. Without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so quickly. The trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. By 2007, more Americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural areas.
