GIVE ME LIBERTY
The Struggle for Self-Government in Virginia
Thomas J. Wertenbaker

Chapter I: The Cornerstone of Liberty
Three little vessels—the Susan Constant, the Godspeed, and the Discovery—left England in December, 1606, under the command of Captain Christopher Newport, to found a colony on the distant shores of Virginia. Two decades earlier Sir Walter Raleigh had sent out a group of settlers to what is now North Carolina, and they had disappeared mysteriously. What had happened to them? men asked. Had they been killed by the Indians? Had they fallen victims to disease? Had they starved? Those who shared in this new venture must have wondered if a like fate awaited them in this strange new land.

But their spirits rose when they entered Chesapeake Bay. Landing parties were delighted with the "fair meddowes ... full of flowers of divers kinds and colors," the "goodly tall trees," and the streams of fresh water. It was a smiling country which seemed to bid them welcome. But when they entered the mouth of a broad river, which they called the James in honor of their King, and made their way up into the country, new doubts must have assailed them. They knew that savages lived in the dense forests which lined both banks; might not strange wild beasts live there also? Might there not be fatal diseases unknown in Europe?

Review the end of the first paragraph in the "Give Me Liberty" excerpt. What is the main point of the questions at the end of the paragraph?

The fate of early settlers was uncertain.
The new settlers had much to fear.
The new settlers had less to fear than the earlier ones.
The new colony was not in North Carolina.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The fate of early settlers was uncertain.

Explanation:

The sequence of questions presented at the end of the first paragraph presented in the question above, aims to show that there are many doubts about the fate of the first settlers. That's because that fate was uncertain, as many bad things could happen in the new world. The colonists were not sure whether they would succeed or even survive in the new world, as many colonists had failed, even if there were examples of successful colonists. The fate was uncertain as the colonists could be successful but could be attacked, starved or infected and the questions at the end of the paragraph show these situations that could or could not happen.

Gael is showing his classmate how to build a rubber-band catapult for their history project. They are standing at a table with the materials organized in front of them.

As an active listener, which of these activities should Gael’s classmate be doing in this scenario?

asking Gael questions to check his understanding
deciding how he will evaluate the success of the project
building the catapult as Gael describes the materials they are using
using terms that are appropriate to his audience

Answers

Answer:

asking Gael questions to check his understanding

Explanation:

Active listening may be explained as exhibiting a good level of attentiveness when being taught or spoken to. Actions related to active listening includes paying attention by being attentive, maintaining eye contact and good posture during the lesson. It is also very important to ask open ended questions which will allow the speaker to be more explicit and guage your grasp or knowledge of the concept. To exhibit active listening, it is important that, the listener does not perform the action which is being taught at the time so as to avoid divided attention. Hence, what should be done is to ask Gael question in other to check if what is being taught is understood.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Passage A
When Dorothy stood in the doorway and looked around, she could see nothing but the great gray prairie on every side. Not a tree nor a house broke the broad sweep of flat country that reached to the edge of the sky in all directions. The sun had baked the plowed land into a gray mass, with little cracks running through it. Even the grass
was not green, for the sun had burned the tops of the long blades until they were the same gray color to be seen everywhere. Once the house had been painted, but the sun blistered the paint and the rains washed it away, and now the house was as dull and gray as everything else.

Passage B
The road was smooth and well paved, now, and the country about was beautiful, so that the travelers rejoiced in leaving the forest far behind, and with it the many dangers they had met in its gloomy shades. Once more they could see fences built beside the road; but these were painted green, and when they came to a small house, in which a farmer evidently lived, that also was painted green.
They passed by several of these houses during the afternoon, and sometimes people came to the doors and looked at them as if they would like to ask questions; but no one came near them nor spoke to them because of the great Lion, of which they were very much afraid. The people were all dressed in clothing of lovely emerald-green color and wore peaked hats like those of the Munchkins.

Questions :
1- What is the most common color of the area around Dorothy’s home?
2-What is the most common color of the surroundings in this passage?
3-What do you think the author is trying to say about the differences in these two places?

In no less than seventy-five words, explain how both Ulysses and Telemachus meet their final challenges by means of the slaughter of the suitors.

Answers

Ulysses and Telemachus have as final challenges the killing of suitors because it was necessary to regain honor and establish a reputation in the community. This is because the suitors harmed the residence that, by law, belonged to the men of the house. This directly affects Telemachus who owned the property, in the absence of his father, and was not respected by the suitors. Ulysses, in addition to not having his property respected, had his marriage and wife disrespected by the presence of suitors.

This all weakened the honor of Ulysses and Telemachus in the region and for this reason it was necessary that a very large revenge was carried out to recover the honor and establish a reputation that would show Ulysses and Telemachus as strong, brutal, protective, domineering, in addition to strengthening a sense of masculinity towards both.

• Your English teacher asks you to write a story. You have to start with the story: I had a natural occurrence when I turned on the television.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I had a natural occurrence when I turned on the television.

I suddenly realized the number of people that tried to become stars instantly, just competing in televised talent shows.

As these talent shows are prime time on TV, millions of people in the United States, England, and other parts of the world watch the shows.

However, success doesn't come easy. The people that really have talent know that preparation and hard work is the key, not mere talent. Talent is just the beginning.

With talent comes practice, preparation, repetition, study, commitment, discipline, and sacrifice. And not everybody likes that. Quite the opposite, they just like instant success. And seldom, that really happens.

Basically, these television shows are big businesses that are sponsored by large companies to produce millions of dollars in advertisements. This means that the purpose is only to generate "big money" and entertain people just to have a good time.

We get most of our exercise by swimming in the new pool.
A) direct object

So, the correct answer is B. The object of a preposition
