Karishma is reading "The Tell-Tale Heart." She reads an excerpt, looks for clues, and makes a prediction about what happens next. Read the same excerpt and her prediction.
His room was as black as pitch with the thick darkness, (for the shutters were close fastened, through fear of robbers,) and so I knew that he could not see the opening of the door, and I kept pushing it on steadily, steadily.
Karishma predicted that the narrator would carry out the murder plot undetected.
Next, read the subsequent excerpt that Karishma read.
I had my head in, and was about to open the lantern, when my thumb slipped upon the tin fastening, and the old man sprang up in bed, crying out—"Who's there?"
Which revision is most logical for Karishma to make to her prediction as she continues to read?
A. The narrator would carry out the murder plot undetected.
B. The narrator will be seen, but not heard as the murder is committed.
C. The old man becomes aware of a frightening presence in the room.
D. The old man prepares for his own murder.
Answer:
D. The old man prepares for his own murder.
Explanation:
According to the question, Karishma is reading "The Tell-Tale Heart." and she reads an excerpt, looks for clues, then makes a prediction about what happens next.
According to her first prediction, she believes that the narrator would carry out the murder plot undetected because his approach to the house has been stealthy so far and no one has heard him.
Next, from the subsequent excerpt she reads, the old man hears him as he is about to open the door and asks loudly who is there.
Therefore, the revision that is most logical for Karishma to make to her prediction as she continues to read is that the old man prepares for his own murder.
This is because, he already knows there is an intruder and now he would prepare for his murder.

Explanation:
What are clues given that told you that they were
without money? Give three examples.
Answer:
What are the Types of Context Clues?
There are five basic types of context clues. If you can help your child understand what they are, and how they work, she’ll have an ever-ready tool kit to use whenever she’s reading and finds herself stumped by an unknown word.
1:Synonym or restatement clues – When an author uses these types of clues, he or she will say the same thing twice: once with the more difficult word, and then again in a more simple way, often right in the same sentence. If your child doesn’t understand a word in a sentence, tell her to keep reading. A restatement clue may be coming right up.
2: Antonym or contrast clues – These types of context clues give us hints to the meaning of words by telling us what they’re not. Often the word “but” is included in the sentence to tell us that an opposite thought is about to be presented. That opposite is the antonym we’re looking for. Point out the antonym to your child. Then ask her, “What’s the opposite?”
3: Definition or explanation clues – With this type of context clue, the definition of the word is literally given to the reader in the form of an explanation. Sometimes the author will add very specific words to tell us an explanation is upcoming. These can include phrases like “which means” or “that is” or “in other words.”
4: General or inference clues – These types of context clues are a little more subtle. They usually require readers to look beyond the sentence they’re reading for understanding, sometimes even at the entire passage, the topic of the piece or the illustrations. If other, more specific context clues are missing, looking for inference clues is your child’s best bet.
5:Punctuation or font clues – The clues hidden here are found in capitalization, italicization, quotation marks and even parentheses. These clues tell the reader that the word could be a name, a book title or even that, in the case of parentheses, the word is being defined for us.
6:Tone or mood clues – Sometimes the mood that the author has set for us helps us guess at a word’s meaning. If the setting is a ghost story for instance, and the protagonist is “brooding,” we can be pretty sure it doesn’t mean he’s happy. Asking your child how she would feel in the setting of the story is one way to clue her into the meaning of a new word.

Topic: Helping families during the pandemic.
Explanation:
Dear Mr/Mrs (your US representative)
As you know we are entering a pandemic, and the economy will become bad. Many business owners are going to fire their employees or putting them on a break without pay. The employees that make up these businesses are mainly a part of the lower and lower-middle class. Now the question is: When these families don't have a monthly income, how are they going to survive this pandemic?
Of course the higher and higher middle class will have no problem staying home and can afford all of their necessities. But the government will have to help our community. I propose that there should be at least 3 days out of the week where the city counsel can give out groceries to the families in need. These groceries can have the basic needs such as bread, eggs, milk, juice, rice etc. When the counsel gives out the groceries, they could be stationed somewhere where everyone knows how to get there.
I'm sure the counsel has some money to be able to do this for the community. This could help the families in these difficult times. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Your name

PART A: Which statement identifies the central idea of the text?
Answer:
In the face of failure, it’s beneficial for people to focus on the things they can control, including how they respond to the failure.
Explanation:
Bethany Brookshire's "Lessons From Failure: Why we try, try again" talks about people's reactions to failure and how we respond to it. The informational text also talks about why we try, try again despite numerous failures.
In the text, the author states how failure is a normal part of human life. But at the same time, it is upon us how we respond to such failures. And throughout the text, she presents the central idea of how "rethinking our emotional responses seems to help" is the ideal recourse.
The statement that best identifies the central idea of the text is that in the face of failure, it is beneficial to focus on the things that we can control rather than brood over it. Also, remaining calm and positive despite the failures is important.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

New Hart’s Rules is the updated edition of Hart’s Rules for Compositors and Editors, a style guide published by the Oxford University Press. Hart’s Rules began as a single sheet of paper drawn up by university printer Horace Hart in 1893, but over the years it’s morphed into a tightly-written comprehensive guide to punctuation and style. It will not teach you how to write, or how to understand English, but if you don’t know what the right thing is to do, it will help you out. (It’s sometimes available with the Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors as the Oxford Style Manual, but I find the Manual a bit unwieldy and prefer them in separate volumes.)

Hey, I need someone to help me out. My mom's wanting me to write a five paragraph essay about why I didn't answer her, and I'm just so tired of everything.
She called me for something and I told her that I couldn't pause the game. Said she didn't care, so I didn't go.
Then she called me and my siblings to do our chores, and she came in as I was wrapping up my game to tell me to write the essay. I'm assuming because I didn't respond fast enough.
I'll give more details if they're needed, and edit it later so it looks more like I wrote it.
