Answer:
A) To foreshadow conflicts to follow in the story
Explanation:
The given excerpt is from the short story Dr. Heidegger's Experiment written by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
The story tells about Dr. Heidegger and his four elderly friends who want to become young again. He gives them the water from the Fountain of Youth, and they temporarily regain their youth. The three mentioned ex-lovers of the Widow Wycherly begin competing for her attention again. In the end, in the middle of their argument, they smash the vase that contained the water, which returns them to their previous age.
Foreshadowing is a literary device in which the author gives us hints about the events that take place later in the story. By including the sentence starting with It's a circumstance worth mentioning, he gives us a hint that there may be some competition between these characters later on. That does come true. This is why option A is the correct one.
The Song of Wandering Aengus
by William Butler Yeats
I went out to the hazel wood,
Because a fire was in my head,
And cut and peeled a hazel wand,
And hooked a berry to a thread;
And when white moths were on the wing,
And moth-like stars were flickering out,
I dropped the berry in a stream
And caught a little silver trout.
When I had laid it on the floor
I went to blow the fire a-flame,
But something rustled on the floor,
And someone called me by my name:
It had become a glimmering girl
With apple blossom in her hair
Who called me by my name and ran
And faded through the brightening air.
Though I am old with wandering
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
I will find out where she has gone,
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
And walk among long dappled grass,
And pluck till time and times are done,
The silver apples of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.
Read these lines from "The Song of Wandering Aengus."
Though I am old with wandering
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
I will find out where she has gone,
How does Aengus's continued search for the girl affect the meaning in the poem?
It shows he is trying to get in touch with the beauty and life he caught a glimpse of.
It reflects his obsession with a woman he once knew and cannot forget.
It suggests that Aengus misses the life he had when he was a young boy.
It reflects his desire to recreate an odd experience he once had.

Egyptian Life of Extremes: In ancient Egypt the pharaoh was at the top of the ‘pyramid’ and his family, noble people who owned land, and the priests came after. Scribes, architects and doctors were well off, and skilled craftsmen also had many privileges. Peasants and unskilled workers were low down the scale of Egyptian society, but it was the servants and slaves that skirted the bottom of the class pyramid. Those working in mines and quarries were really asking for trouble, as diseases, physical strain and dangers lurked in every turned stone in the desert. Slaves working in rich domestic environments were the lucky ones as they were assured security, housing and food.
Men in the armed forces, army and navy were not afforded a high social status, and neither were entertainers. Professions were usually hereditary, not chosen; a man followed his father’s trade and so on. Scribes were the top dogs in the sphere of learning and teaching. Not every child was able to learn how to read and write; this was restricted to those following the scribe profession.
Most Egyptians ate bread, fruits, and vegetables such as dates, figs, and beans on a daily basis. The wealthy ate different kinds of meat such as beef, veal, antelope and gazelle meat. The poor ate mostly birds such as geese, ducks, quails, and cranes. Different fish from the Nile were consumed, which were frequently dried in the sun. The poor drank beer while the rich drank fine wine.
Clothing was made from linen. Babies and infants often went naked so as not to ruin clothing. Women wore long tunics like dresses, while men wore knee length tunics. Both would wear jewelry, perfume, and wigs if they could afford such items. The wigs were made with sheep or real human hair, and worn at parties and in domestic environments as well as at festivals.

GOLD IN THE SKY
By Alan E. Nourse
Chapter 1. Trouble Times Two
The sun was glowing dull red as it slipped down behind the curving horizon of Mars, but Gregory Hunter was not able to see it.
There was no viewscreen in the ship's cabin; it was too tiny for that. Greg twisted around in the cockpit that had been built just big enough to hold him, and shifted his long legs against the brace-webbing, trying to get them comfortable.
He knew he was afraid ... but nobody else knew that, not even the captain waiting at the control board on the satellite, and in spite of the fear Greg Hunter would not have traded places at this moment with anyone else in the universe.
He had worked too hard and waited too long for this moment.
He heard the count-down monitor clicking in his ears, and his hands clenched into fists. How far from Mars would he be 10 minutes from now? He didn't know. Farther than any man had ever traveled before in the space of 10 minutes, he knew, and faster. How far and how fast would depend on him alone.
"All set, Greg?" It was the captain's voice in the earphones.
"All set, Captain."
"You understand the program?"
Greg nodded. "24 hours out, 24 hours back, 90 degrees to the ecliptic1, and all the acceleration2 I can stand both ways."
Greg grinned to himself. He thought of the months of conditioning he had gone through to prepare for this run ... the hours in the centrifuge to build up his tolerance to acceleration, the careful diet, the rigorous hours of physical conditioning. It was only one experiment, one tiny step in the work that could someday give men the stars, but to Gregory Hunter at this moment it was everything.
"Good luck, then." The captain cut off, and the blastoff buzzer sounded.
He was off. His heart hammered in his throat, and his eyes ached fiercely, but he paid no attention. His finger crept to the air-speed indicator, then to the cut-off switch. When the pressure became too great, when he began to black out, he would press it.
But not yet. It was speed they wanted; they had to know how much acceleration a man could take for how long and still survive, and now it was up to him to show them.
Fleetingly, he thought of Tom ... poor old stick-in-the-mud Tom, working away in his grubby little Mars-bound laboratory, watching bacteria grow. Tom could never have qualified for a job like this. Tom couldn't even go into free-fall for 10 minutes without getting sick all over the place. Greg felt a surge of pity for his brother, and then a twinge of malicious anticipation. Wait until Tom heard the reports on this run! It was all right to spend your time poking around with bottles and test tubes if you couldn't do anything else, but it took something special to pilot an XP ship for Project Star-Jump. And after this run was over, even Tom would have to admit it....
There was a lurch, and quite suddenly the enormous pressure was gone.
Something was wrong. He hadn't pushed the cut-off button, yet the ship's engines were suddenly silent. He jabbed at the power switch. Nothing happened. Then the side-jets sputted, and he was slammed sideways into the cot.
He snapped on the radio speaker. "Control ... can you hear me? Something's gone wrong out here...."

Answer:
b the universe
Explanation:
Answer:
C would be the 'specific topic'.
Explanation:
It's not A or B because those topics are not specific meaning "mammals" is talking about many different animals that are "mammals", and the universe is talking about everything in it or the universe itself, but we're not sure so it's not specific. If we look at C it's talking about one 'specific' thing and it's The Bald Eagle.

"Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired old town when I first knew it. In rainy weather the streets turned to red slop; grass grew on the sidewalks, the courthouse sagged in the square. Somehow it was hotter then: a black dog suffered on a summers day; bony mules hitched to Hoover carts flicked flies in the sweltering shade of the live oaks on the square. Men's stiff collars wilted by nine in the morning. Ladies bathed before noon, after their three-o'clock naps, and by nightfall were like soft teacakes with frostings of sweat and sweet talcum."

Part A
What does the author mean when he writes that space is a fabric warped by gravity in paragraph 9?
Gravity can distort space.
O Gravity creates ripples in space.
Gravity can move objects in space.
O Gravity creates patterns in space.
Gravity creates patterns in space does the author mean when he writes that space is a fabric warped by gravity in paragraph 9. Hence, option D is correct.
What is The Warp Factor?A phrase used to describe velocity in the subspace region where faster-than-light speeds are conceivable is warp factor. To evaluate the distortion potential of a warp engine, Starfleet and the Federation developed a scale utilizing cochrane units.
Given that v is the ship's effective speed and c is the speed of light, the warp factor is equal to the cubic root of the attained speed ratio of the spacecraft, or v/c. As compared to light speed, warp 1 is faster.
There is a natural physical or financial limit to the warp drive's ability to travel at higher speeds. This cap is given as warp factor 9.99 in the encyclopedia Star Trek Fact Files. This is the spaceship's highest-mentioned conventional warp speed.
Thus, option D is correct.
