Answer:
ABC
Explanation:
ABC, which had spent no money on the race, cut in on the CBC signal and began broadcasting. It was followed quickly by NBC. CBS was last to air.
ABC interrupted the CBC transmission and started broadcasting, despite having made no financial investment in the race. NBC swiftly followed suit. Last to air was CBS.
What do you mean by Broadcasting?Electronically transmitting radio and television signals that are aimed at the general public as opposed to private signals that are sent to particular receivers is known as broadcasting.
The battle would be over which network would air it first, and only CBS and NBC had the manpower, financial resources, and engineering capabilities necessary to play. Americans could not watch what was happening in London as it was happening. ABC would watch the valiant struggle from a position of weakness and poverty, with the fewest stars, the weakest stations, the smallest audiences, and inevitably, the smallest, least active news departments.
Therefore, Option (A) is correct.

Which excerpt from The Great Gatsby is the best example of foreshadowing?
. . . he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. Involuntarily I glanced seaward — and distinguished nothing except a single green light, minute and far away, that might have been the end of a dock. When I looked once more for Gatsby he had vanished, and I was alone again in the unquiet darkness.
Of course I knew what they were referring to, but I wasn’t even vaguely engaged. The fact that gossip had published the banns was one of the reasons I had come East. You can’t stop going with an old friend on account of rumors, and on the other hand I had no intention of being rumored into marriage.
I said lightly that I had heard nothing at all, and a few minutes later I got up to go home. They came to the door with me and stood side by side in a cheerful square of light. As I started my motor Daisy peremptorily called: “Wait!”
“Her family is one aunt about a thousand years old. Besides, Nick’s going to look after her, aren’t you, Nick? She’s going to spend lots of week-ends out here this summer. I think the home influence will be very good for her.”

What is assonance? Grouping of ideas Number of syllables Repetition of consonants Repetition of vowels
Answer:
Repetition of vowels
Explanation:
Gene sees a free green jeep parked on a tree-lined street.
The repetition of comparable vowel sounds, preceded and observed via way of means of exceptional consonants is called as assonance.
What is consonance ?
Both phrases are related to repetition—assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds and consonance is the repetition of consonant sounds—however those phrases (as they may be usually used) vary in three critical methods from the patterning of rhyme.
This is why many poets use assonance, consonance, and alliteration. The repetitive use of a vowel sound can create rhythm in a reader's thoughts and rhythm could make a line greater memorable.

Fashion sense doesnt define a good teacher. A good teacher always needs to be easy around or give you a nice feeling when youre around them. If you had an amazing teacher but wears terrible clothing would that make you want to fire them or switch them? No. On the other hand if you had a super fashionable teacher but acts TERRIBLY around you like yelling and sceaming, obviously you would want them in your sachool.

Excerpt from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass
Frederick Douglass
1 I was born in Tuckahoe, near Hillsborough, and about twelve miles from Easton, in Talbot county, Maryland. I have no accurate knowledge of my age, never having seen any authentic record containing it. By far the larger part of the slaves know as little of their ages as horses know of theirs, and it is the wish of most masters within my knowledge to keep their slaves thus ignorant. I do not remember to have ever met a slave who could tell of his birthday. They seldom come nearer to it than planting-time, harvest time, cherry-time, spring-time, or fall-time. A want of information concerning my own was a source of unhappiness to me even during childhood. The white children could tell their ages. I could not tell why I ought to be deprived of the same privilege. I was not allowed to make any inquiries of my master concerning it. He deemed all such inquiries on the part of a slave improper and impertinent, and evidence of a restless spirit. The nearest estimate I can give makes me now between twenty-seven and twenty-eight years of age. I come to this, from hearing my master say, some time during 1835, I was about seventeen years old.

How does Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory
affect the meaning of the passage?
A. It shows that Cassius thinks that Brutus is too optimistic.
B. It implies that Brutus would be willing to pay the price for
his actions.
C. It reveals that Brutus and Cassius regret killing Caesar.
D. It creates a greater sense of humiliation for the defeated.
Answer:
A. It shows that Cassius thinks that Brutus is too optimistic.
Explanation:
Shakespeare's use of triumph instead of victory in the excerpt in the passage affects its meaning because it shows that Cassius thinks Brutus is too optimistic, that is, Brutus expect they would win the war.
Cassius is trying to ask Brutus if he could face the humiliation of losing the battle and be led through the street of Time as trophy.
This means that there are two consequences of fighting a war, either to lose or to win.
Loosing means to be paraded as trophy and winning means to parade the losers as trophy.

A participant responds to the text by saying, “The fast-food industry can give valuable work experience to teenagers.” Write three to four sentences in which you share what you would say in support of or in opposition to this. Be sure to provide evidence to support your opinion.
Answer:
Explanation:
Why I support that The fast-food industry can give valuable work experience to teenagers:
1. The fast-food industry is a fast growing industry that require little to zero experience and therefore teenagers are useful workforce for this industry.
2. With teenagers required to attend schools during the day, fast-food industry creates time for them to work after school hours.
3. Fast-food industry can accommodate a lot of these teenagers which means it is one of the best place to gain early work experience.
4. The fast-food industry creates an avenue for this teenagers to show customer relationship management while working there and this can help them in any career of their chosen.
Answer:
I agree that fast-food jobs can give work experience to teenagers. At the same time, I wonder how valuable this work experience is. In Fast Food Nation, Schlosser mentions that teenagers with these jobs are not paid well and often do not learn new skills. In addition, time on the job can take away from their focus on school.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”
He took his vorpal sword in hand;
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.

Explain your own interpretation of the poem "Jabberwocky." What is the story that the poem is telling, in your own words?
Answer in 2-3 complete sentences. Use evidence from the poem in your answer.
In the first stanza of 'Jabberwocky' Carroll jumps right into the text using strange and nonsensical words. He describes the scene as “brillig” and filled with “slithy toves”. ... This word could reference a creature or some kind of plant. It sounds similar to another word “grove,” such as a grove of trees. All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. Consider Carroll's use of (invented) words in this stanza. ... Carroll is using both 'slithy' and 'mimsy' as portmanteau words: slithy, for example, is a blend of slimy + lithe, while mimsy suggests miserable + flimsy. In "Jabberwocky," Carroll uses nonsensical words throughout a typical ballad form to tell a tale of good versus evil, which culminates in the killing of the fearsome Jabberwock. “Brillig”: four o'clock in the afternoon — the time when you begin broiling things for dinner. “Slithy”: lithe and slimy. ' Lithe' is the same as 'active'. “Toves”: curious creatures that are something like badgers, something like lizards, and something like corkscrews.
