Packing the abacus = Facing reality, and seeing that a war is going on, and Syracuse has protected itself. Focusing and attending to the tasks at hand.

In the text, the author discusses how high-income students are usually better prepared for college by their school. Why do you think this is? How can we make sure that all students receive a quality education, regardless of economic status?
Answer:
There is no question that education is a powerful driver of prosperity. Americans with college degrees earn 117 percent more a year than those who do not complete high school.1 Based on data for the high school class of 2015, raising the nation’s high school graduation rate from 83 percent to 90 percent would result in an additional $3.1 billion in earnings for each high school cohort, which would translate into a $5.7 billion increase in gross domestic product.2 Moreover, Americans with higher levels of education are more likely to vote,3 to volunteer,4 and to donate to charity.5

Answer:
notice two assumptions: first is that the main value of art is its artifacts, its products, and that the change it would produce would be in the viewer (who needs to be educated "about art" to comprehend its value or message). Closely related is the assumption that people should only make art if they are "good at it." If we think that art is mainly about making excellent products to be viewed by others, then (it is implied) it better be "good," to be worthy of the viewers' time, ticket price, grant and tax dollars, etc. This is used as basis for questioning the value of art.
After three decades of art making (I am a dancer/choreographer) and teaching such practices, I have come to find that perhaps the most valuable aspect of art, and its greatest potential to generate change, is in the individual and the experience/learning that occurs through artistic processes. When one engages in art-making practices, they activate new areas of the brain, foster novel connections, make advantage of bilateral brain functioning, and discover not only new content, but new means of thinking about problems. Art making fosters creativity--that is, altering assumptions that block ability to change. The applications of training the mind in this way are difficult to estimate, and go well beyond making art to communicate a message to a viewer. I agree with Hugo's comment on the primary value of education. I would obviate the dualism and argue that education wouldn't have to be "first," before art, if artistic processes and practices were better understood and functionally integrated as core methods of education and critical thinking, rather than merely added as "extra-curriculars" or "enrichment" (and only if funding is sufficient to warrant such "luxuries.")
If we were to culturally shift our appreciation of art to primarily value its processes and experiences as integrative learning in their own right then art gains a much stronger argument for its function in society, education, health/welll-being, and so on. If more people were engaged in artistic processes, that might lead to more creative change.
Now whether that change is "positive" is really another question. One shouldn't assume that art's purpose is "positive" anymore than science and technology. Science has produced many negative outcomes in its primary pursuits of knowledge and control of nature. Question: To what extent do we assume that science (education and products) contributes mainly to "positive" change?

I’m different that way. I mean, my second-oldest brother, Soda, who is sixteen-going-on-seventeen, never cracks a book at all, and my oldest brother, Darrel, who we call Darry, works too long and hard to be interested in a story or drawing a picture, so I’m not like them. And nobody in our gang digs movies and books the way I do. For a while there, I thought I was the only person in the world that did.
What is the theme of this excerpt?
A) Being part of a team is meaningful.
B) Growing up means accepting oneself.
C) Nature teaches powerful life lessons.
D) Family traditions are important.
Answer:
B) Growing up means accepting oneself.
Explanation:
The narrorator is highlighting the differences between her and her brothers, showing how she is different from them. That makes me think that B would be the answer, as she is accepting her differences from her siblings. This is me kind of making an assumption, but if I were doing this quiz that is the answer I would choose.

Hi. You did not submit the text this question refers to. This makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question just like yours, which had the text that is attached below. Also, show the words in bold, which in the case of the text, are underlined. In that case, I hope the answer below can help you.
Answer:
Annoyance: the author is pointing out a likely reason for the "guests" to come
Explanation:
A connotative meaning refers to a subjunctive meaning, not literal and different from the real meaning of the word, but associated with the context to which it refers, within the text. In the case of the expression "casual acquaintances" presented in the text shown below, we can interpret that this expression shows a connotative meaning of annoyance, where the author shows the presence of uninvited people who did not have the requested presence.
Read the excerpt from "How the Grimm Brothers Saved the Fairy Tale."
Despite difficult personal problems and meager financial support from 1805 to 1812, the brothers proved themselves to be innovative scholars in the new field of German philology by publishing articles and books on medieval literature. In fact, they would be surprised to learn that they are more famous today for their tales than for their superb philological studies, which include pioneering work on German sound shifts, and the founding of the voluminous German Dictionary in 1854. But it was their training in philology and the demands that they placed on themselves as researchers that assisted their collecting and editing the tales.
Which idea does the author introduce first?
the fact that the brothers are better known for their folk tales
the brothers' founding of the German Dictionary in 1854
the brothers' ability to overcome difficulties to succeed as scholars
the role that philology played in the brothers' research skills
Mark this and return
Philology is fundamentally "the correct interpretation of texts."
the brothers' ability to overcome difficulties to succeed as scholars

Which rhyming couplet from Phillis Wheatley’s “On Imagination” contains an inverted sentence?
