Explanation:
Read the excerpt from the introduction for "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.
Invention is predominantly individualistic. Everything... comes from the lone worker who follows the fleeting inspiration of a moment and finally does something that has not been done before.
This quote is from the inventor of a three-phase motor, Nikola Tesla. It fits the description in every respect of Dean Kamen, the owner of more than one hundred patents.
As a young teenager in Rockville Center, New York, one of four children, whose father was a comic book artist and his mother a schoolteacher, Dean started tinkering with sound and light boxes in his bedroom, "which caused lights to go off and on, and deafening sound to come from his radio," said his mother.
Their indulgent parents allowed Dean and his older brother Barton to experiment, raising as many as one hundred live rats and to set up a workshop in their basement on Long Island. Dean stocked the basement laboratory with machinery to help create new audio/visual equipment. This led to his first patent and a sizable financial reward while still in high school.
Which line best supports the writer’s opinion that Kamen has done things that have never been done before?

5. Never walk past under someone's extended arm. If you do, you will experience no more growth spurt.
6. Pointing to the rainbow will cause you to lose a finger. In order to prevent that, one should only point a muddy finger to the rainbow.
In Haiti, when I see a rainbow, I used to stick my finger in mud before I pointed and said, "Look at this rainbow!"
7. When you're cooking rice especially, filling up your mouth with air so that your cheeks are "super" inflated will double the size of the your meal.
8. Rain on a sunny day means that the devil is having a domestic dispute with his wife.
9. Rocks of thunder: Precious shiny "rocks" are deposited on earth whenever it thunders. A person that finds such a "rock" will live a fertile, healthy, and prosperous life.
Actually, a few people in Haiti have claimed to have found some of these rocks. ( I hear that they look really shiny : -)
10. If you open an umbrella indoors, death will loom over the whole house.
11. If you eat standing up, you'll end up with a swollen leg.

13. If your feet get swept by a cleaning broom, you'll never marry.
14. On your wedding day, if you let your new husband slip the ring on your finger pass the big knuckle, he will dominate the relationship.
That's why you'll see a Haitian bride use her thumb to block the ring from being slipped too far into her finger.

Can you just imagine the distress that some people might experience over an escaped bird?
22. People not in good health do not attend funerals. If they do, they'll be the next one to be buried.
23. If a funeral procession passing in the streets suddenly stops in front of your house, you have to quickly throw a bucket of water at the entrance of your house to prevent death from coming into your home.
Oh! My aunt used to do that a lot! In Arcahaie, we lived not too far from the cemetery. A funeral procession (which comprises of the priests, the altar boys, men carrying the coffin, followed by the family members of the deceased) often passes in front of our house. Sometimes the coffin is heavy and the men have to take a break, so the procession stops for a few seconds. When that happens it is said that the deceased is reluctant to go to the cemetery. God forbid! this should happen in front of your house. It is a big deal.

Uncle Hammer’s car was (A) like Mr. Granger’s, (B) old and battered, (C) a Model-T. (Roll of Thunder, Hear Me Cry)
Answer:
Uncle Hammer's car was very similar to Mr. Grangers. While driving on a bride, Granger himself stopped for his car to pass, thinking he was a white person. When Granger realized that he was black, he threatened the Logan family.
Explanation:
The bridge was a one-way road, and cars had to share it when driving because it was so thin. Black people didn't have cars in that area, so it was a surprise when the Logan family drove by.

Paragraphs are the building blocks of papers. Many students define paragraphs in terms of length: a paragraph is a group of at least five sentences, a paragraph is half a page long, etc. In reality, though, the unity and coherence of ideas among sentences is what constitutes a paragraph. A paragraph is defined as “a group of sentences or a single sentence that forms a unit” (Lunsford and Connors 116). Length and appearance do not determine whether a section in a paper is a paragraph. For instance, in some styles of writing, particularly journalistic styles, a paragraph can be just one sentence long. Ultimately, a paragraph is a sentence or group of sentences that support one main idea. In this handout, we will refer to this as the “controlling idea,” because it controls what happens in the rest of the paragraph.
