The major asked me to have a drink with him and two other officers. We drank rum and it was very friendly. Outside it was getting dark. I asked what time the attack was to be and they said as soon as it was dark. I went back to the drivers. They were sitting in the dugout talking and when I came in they stopped. I gave them each a package of cigarettes, Macedonias, loosely packed cigarettes that spilled tobacco and needed to have the ends twisted before you smoked them. Manera lit his lighter and passed it around. The lighter was shaped like a Fiat radiator. I told them what I had heard.
What does the excerpt reveal about the narrator?
He prefers the company of the officers to that of the drivers.
He only spends time with the officers so he can get cigarettes for the drivers.
He looks down on everyone involved in the war, both officers and enlisted men.
He interacts easily with both his superiors and the drivers.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
From this excerpt I would pick the last one. It seems he gets along with everyone well. The officers ask him to drink with them and they give him information which he thinks should be given to the drivers. He has cigarettes to pass around and give everyone
It might be C, but I very much doubt it. Not from the passage given.
No for B. He spends time with the officers because they asked him to.
It is not A. He seems to fit in with everyone.

Can be more than one answer
Answer:
A) Her screams and apparent hallucinations terrify the other prisoners.
B) She refuses to stop complaining about the conditions on the train.
E) They do not want the morale of the prisoners to get any worse than it already is.
Explanation:
Mrs. Schachter is in a cattle car with other Jews who have been taken by the Nazis. These people have no idea where they are being driven to. The soldiers' treatment of them so far suggests that it won't end well for them when they reach their destination. Mrs. Schachter's responses to being crowded into a cattle car with a large number of other individuals and driven off to an unknown location reflect those of the rest. They are terrified of what is about to happen. Her screams are also so obnoxious and constant that they make the other prisoners extremely uncomfortable and anxious. Once they've had enough of her antics they decide to have her bound, gagged, and beaten. They later discover that Mrs. Schachter was correct. They do disembark in Auschwitz, where victims are gassed in rooms and corpses are cremated in ovens.

"How do these humors get out of balance?"

Packaging—the material we use to put products in—is everywhere, especially at grocery and
drug stores. Yogurt comes in plastic cups with aluminum tops covered by plastic lids. Razors are
in plastic cases wrapped in cardboard. Packaging is important—it keeps food fresh and safe to
eat. It protects products from damage. But it’s the greatest source of waste in many countries
around the world.
Packaging also hurts the environment. Packaging is made from many different materials.
Some of these materials, such as plastic, contain chemicals that pollute water and soil (dirt) and
are harmful to people and animals. In addition, to make packaging from paper, cardboard, and
wood, people must cut down trees. Fewer trees can lead to climate change and other serious
environmental problems. So what can we do to reduce all this packaging?
Everyone is concerned about packaging, including the people who use it the most,
manufacturers, people that create and package products. In the past, they overused packaging.
According to one government agency, manufacturers are beginning to reduce the amount of
packaging that they use. CDs are an example. In the past, they came in large cardboard
containers that were twice as big as the CDs inside them. Now, they come in small plastic boxes.
Soft drink manufacturers are putting drinks into thinner bottles and cans that use less material.
However, even though there is less waste from packaging, it’s still waste. We still have to do
something with it. Here’s what the average person can do: We can reduce the amount of
packaging that we buy, and when we do buy it, we can reuse it. We can reduce the amount of
packaging that we actually bring home by buying large-sized products that do more than one
thing, for example, laundry detergent that has fabric softener in it. We can reuse materials instead
of throwing them away. For example, we can use plastic or glass containers to store food, office
supplies, and other objects.
Reducing and reusing are just two ways to limit waste from packaging. There are many other
ways. Let’s all work together to reduce waste!
Which best describes the purpose and audience of this passage?
Multiple Choice
to inform packaging manufacturers of new ways to reduce the size of their packaging
to instruct government agencies in new ways to measure amounts of packaging
to entertain consumers by describing problems caused by small amounts of packaging
to persuade consumers to reduce the amount of packaging they use and throw away
Answer:
to persuade consumers to reduce the amount of packaging they use and throw away
Explanation:
It talks about what consumers can do to reduce their packaging waste.
She has visited her grandparents, ___?
Select one:
a. hasn't she
b. has she
c. doesn't she
d. does she
Answer:
a. hasn't she
Explanation:
Present perfect with negative tags
Tag questions (or question tags) turn a statement into a question. They are often used for checking information that we think we know is true.
Tag questions are made using an auxiliary verb (for example: be or have) and a subject pronoun (for example: I, you, she). Negative question tags are usually contracted: It's warm today, isn't it (not 'is it not')
Usually if the main clause is positive, the question tag is negative, and if the main clause is negative, it's positive. For example: It's cold (positive), isn't it (negative)? And: It isn't cold (negative), is it (positive)?
If the main clause has an auxiliary verb in it, you use the same verb in the tag question. If there is no auxiliary verb (in the present simple and past simple) use do / does / did (just like when you make a normal question).
There is one weird exception: the question tag after I am is aren't I.
For example: I'm in charge of the food, aren't I?

Where is syllable stressed in the word (important)
Answer:
As an adjective or a noun, the stress falls on the first syllable. Present, present. As a verb, the stress falls on the second syllable, present, present. So as a noun or adjective, the first vowel is the 'eh' as in 'bed', and the second syllable, unaccented, is the schwa.
