Read the passage describing the famine that struck Ireland in 1740 to 1741.
In 1740–1741 extremely cold temperatures struck vast areas of pre-industrial Europe, causing harvest failures that led to increased prices for staple food, famine, disease, excess mortality and migration. . . . Ireland was probably more vulnerable than most other European countries. Already in the first half of the eighteenth century, Irish food production was based heavily on potatoes and oats – a pattern of cultivation providing little resilience against the risk of harvest failure after an extremely cold winter. . . . Ireland was ill-prepared to deal with the consequences of harvest failure . . .
–The Irish Famine of 1740–1741,
S. Engler, et al.

Explanation:

1] I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
[5] Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
[10] Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
[15] A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
[20] In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
What happens in the first stanza?
The poet describes a time that he felt lonely and came upon a field of daffodils.
The poet ponders the meaning of life and the challenges and joys of the hills and valleys.
The poet reflects on a moment when he realized that nature could be gentle or harsh.
The poet sees an amazing view from the mountaintops he has just finished climbing.

What is the best way to rewrite this sentences as a compound sentence?
Curiosity's landing on Mars required tremendous effort. The six-wheeled rover weighs nearly one ton.
A. Curiosity's landing on Mars required tremendous effort; and the six-wheeled rover weighs nearly one ton.
B. Curiosity's landing on Mars required tremendous effort, for the six-wheeled rover weighs nearly one ton.
C. Curiosity's landing on Mars required tremendous effort; nor the six-wheeled rover weighs nearly one ton.
D. Curiosity's landing on Mars required tremendous effort, yet the six-wheeled rover weighs nearly one ton.
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
A is excluded because the part of the sentence after the semicolon is not an independent clause.
C is not a properly structured sentence. The meaning is fuzzy, and difficult to comprehend.
Finally, D. The "yet" indicates a form of surprise at a certain outcome. It does not work in this situation because 1 ton is a lot of weight.

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Read Story-Time by Edgar Guest
According to this poem, stories A. give children terrible nightmares if told before bedtime. B. transform fathers into wonderful heroes for their children. C. help people cope with the problems that they experience. D. let people have adventures from the comfort of home
Answer: D. let people have adventures from the comfort of home.
Explanation:
Guest´s poem describes a father telling stories to the kids before bedtime. That nightly ritual seems to happen every day, and allows them to go on adventures with pirates, "Or fairies hiding in the glen," and many other fictional scenes.
In those adventures, they can be as they wish, because "No longer are they youngsters small," and the father is not old.
He describes seemingly dangerous situations, such as great battles, that might seem dangerous but are harmless because they always end well and just in time for bed.

Read this excerpt from "Hope, Despair, and Memory" by Elie Wiesel and answer the question.
The survivors wanted to communicate everything to the living: the victim’s solitude and sorrow, the tears of mothers driven to madness, the prayers of the doomed beneath a fiery sky. They needed to tell of the child who, in hiding with his mother, asked softly, very softly, "Can I cry now?" They needed to tell of the sick beggar who, in a sealed cattle-car, began to sing as an offering to his companions. And of the little girl who, hugging her grandmother, whispered: "Don’t be afraid, don’t be sorry to die … I’m not."
What historical context does Wiesel convey using the allusion of a fiery sky?
He compares the sky to hell.
the fires from air raids during World War II
the cremation of Jews in the concentration camps
the outbreak of forest fires from bombs in World War II
Answer:
The cremation of Jews in the concentration camps.
Explanation:
Elie Wiesel's "Hope, Despair, and Memory" is his Nobel Prize lecture where he recounts his personal experiences during the Holocaust. In his lecture, he tells what he had witnessed during the Nazi regime and how the things that he saw, the memories must serve as a reminder to humans to not repeat the horrendous acts.
In the given excerpt from the text, Wiesel talks of "the survivors" and the memories that they remember. Talking of the "victims", he recounts the suffering of these people. And through his description, we can know that he is talking about the concentration camps and how people, irrespective of age and gender, are burned in the chambers.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

why do you think Ceaser refused the crown three times? What was his motive?
Answer:
There are differing responses to this question, depending on which character provides the answer. Casca explains to Brutus and Cassius that, in the arena, Caesar refused the crown every time Antony offered it because each time he refused, the crowd responded uproariously. Casca observes that “he would fain have had it,” implying that Caesar’s refusal was, essentially, theater and that he was simply pandering to the crowd. On the other hand, Antony uses the same incident to reveal that Caesar refused the crown because he was not ambitious or power-hungry. However, it’s more likely that Caesar’s motivations were as Casca implies: Caesar theatrically refused the crown to further secure the hearts and minds of the people, and he fully intended to accept the crown when the senate officially offered it to him.
