Explanation:
Read the excerpt from “First Generation” of Dreaming in Cuban, by Cristina Garcia.
She considers the vagaries of sports, the happenstance of El Líder, a star pitcher in his youth, narrowly missing a baseball career in America. His wicked curveball attracted the major league scouts, and the Washington Senators were interested in signing him but changed their minds. Frustrated, El Líder went home, rested his pitching arm, and started a revolution in the mountains.
Which best explains how Garcia’s word choice helps establish her voice in the excerpt?
Garcia uses short, forceful words to assert a pessimistic opinion on fate.
Garcia uses formal, academic language and location words to suggest a theory about fate.
Garcia uses American baseball terminology to suggest fate’s defeat.
Garcia uses words with positive connotations to suggest an optimistic outlook on fate.
Answer:
C) Garcia uses American baseball terminology to suggest fate’s defeat.
Explanation:
Edge 2021
Answer:
The best option is D.
Explanation:
Option D states that Garcia, rather than depict El Líder's situation in a negative light, managed to recount his ordeal in a positive light.
In the first sentence, instead of saying that El Líder lost an opportunity to be signed on to the major league, Garcia writes that he narrowly missed it.
It's hard to read the excerpt and end up without a positive impression of El Líder. She ends on a positive note stating that he went on to start a revolution in the mountains. That in itself is a great ending, an optimistic resolution of the turn of events for the would-have-been baseballer.

Explanation:
Benson Deng, his brother Alephonsion Deng and Benjamin Ajak are the three young boys from Sudan who endured numerous hardships to escape the civil war, death, and killing in their country. Their memoir "They Poured Fire on Us From The Sky" became one of the most riveting and painful stories of their journey to find safety and also be reunited with each other.
After their safe arrival in the land of the free- America, they were kept under the custody of a mentor named Judy Bernstein, a staff of the International Rescue Committee. Her work includes providing safety, services, and help any refugees. She also became involved in the writing of the boys' memoir.
Answer: Yier.

Read the sentence from "The Four Freedoms."
Taking counsel of expert military and naval authorities, considering what is best for our own security, we are free to decide how much should be kept here and how much should be sent abroad to our friends who by their determined and heroic resistance are giving us time in which to make ready our own defense.
What viewpoint is Roosevelt expressing in the sentence?
The United States will not be able to aid its allies unless it increases arms production.

Gym Rats

Stage Set: Late in the evening in the Hammer House Boxing Gym, most of the regulars have left. A scattered few people still remain. In the background, a man uses a jump rope. A woman does push-ups.
(CAIN, a small boxer, sits on a bench unwrapping the protective tape off of his knuckles and wrists using his teeth. SERGIO, his sparring partner and best friend, cuts away at the tape on CAIN'S other hand.)
SERGIO: I know you've got a hand in there somewhere.
CAIN: (spitting the tape out of his mouth) Well, remember to stop cutting once you see bone.
(The people exercising in the background finish their workouts and move off stage, leaving the focus of the audience on CAIN and SERGIO.)
SERGIO: Right, like you'd be able to feel it otherwise. I don't even think you have bone in there. I think you've got anvils in your hands.
CAIN: Are you kidding? I'll need more than anvils come fight night. Doerkson is a monster in the ring. To bring him down, I'll need a lead pipe and a tank if you can spare them.
(Freed from the cast of protective tape, CAIN'S hands start to violently shake. CAIN closes them into a fist until they calm.)
SERGIO: What was that?
(CAIN stands up and walks over to a nearby heavy bag and starts to throw light jabs.)
CAIN: It's nothing, just nerves. It'll calm down after the fight.
SERGIO: Have you seen a doctor?
(CAIN'S light jabs get heavier.)
CAIN: Seriously, I'm fine. Just nerves.
SERGIO: You don't get nerves. You don't get worried or stressed. I know you. What's going on?
(CAIN'S heavy jabs get heavier as the heavy bag begins to sway.)
CAIN: I'm fine. Let it go.
SERGIO: You can't stonewall me. We're going to a doctor tonight. I don't want to see you end up like Motts, stumbling around, shaking, can't even hold a spoon to eat, let alone throw hands. He took too many punches to the head, and now, his head is like a snow globe—just little flakes floating around in there. As a matter of fact. . . .
(CAIN begins to pummel at the heavy bag, and the bag begins to rock violently.)
CAIN: Let it go! I'm not going to any doctors now. If I do, the athletic commission steps in. If they step in, they'll cancel the fight. They do that and I'm out of a purse. I need that money! And if you call yourself my friend, you'll keep quiet.
(SERGIO walks over and stops the swaying bag.)
SERGIO: It's your funeral.
(SERGIO walks away to the locker room. CAIN'S hands start to shake again until CAIN closes them into fists. The tremors stop.)

What do the descriptions of Emerson’s gravestone compared to Thoreau’s gravestone suggest about how each man was viewed by the public at the time of his death?
Answer and Explanation:
Emerson's gravestone is a large monument characterized by a large and imposing stone on which his name, date of birth, date of death and the phrase "The passive master lent his hand to the vast soul that over him planed. " All the delicacy and grandeur that Emerson's gravestone presents shows how he was a beloved writer by society and how his death was felt and accepted with regret.
Thoreau's gravestone, on the other hand, presents itself very differently, it is not imposing and large like Emerson's, but it is presented in a reduced size and with a stone where only the word "Henry" is written and just it. This shows that Thoreau was not so well liked by the population and his death did not cause so much commotion and regret, probably due to the positions he had on politics and society.

Which excerpt from I Never Had It Made best uses descriptive details to paint a picture for readers? In August 1945, at Comiskey Park in Chicago, I was approached by Clyde Sukeforth, the Dodger scout. He told me that the Brown Dodgers were looking for top ballplayers, that Branch Rickey had heard about me. Mr. Rickey wanted to know all about Rachel. I told him our hopes and plans. "You know you have a girl," he said heartily. "When we get through today, you may want to call her up." Because of his nature and passion for justice, he [Rickey] had to do what he was doing. He continued. His rumbling voice, the theatrical gestures, were gone. He was speaking from a deep, quiet strength. "I think I can play the game, Mr. Rickey," I said. The next few minutes were tough. Branch Rickey had to make absolutely sure that I knew what I would face.
