Read this excerpt from We've Got a Job: The 1963 Children's March. By the time Wash was in seventh grade, he'd skip school for weeks at a time. "My friends and I would go into the woods and build a campfire [or] walk down the railroad tracks," he said. Sometimes he'd go to the colored library, sit in the back room, and read. "It was all an adventure," according to Wash. He liked wearing a Davy Crockett coonskin cap on his adventures. What is the tone of the excerpt?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Sentimental.

Explanation:

Cynthia Levinson's "We've Got a Job: The 1963 Birmingham Children's March" is about the history of the African American people history particularly about the youths, racism, and protests, activism, etc. The book provides personal accounts of children participating in the revolts against racism and discrimination.

The given excerpt has a sentimental tone while talking about Wash. Here, Wash recounts how he used to "go into the woods and build a campfire [or] walk down the railroad tracks", expressing everything "was all an adventure." The recollection shows he's sentimental about his younger days when he would go on "adventures".

Thus, the correct answer is sentimental.

Read this sentence from the story.


A few days later, I was sitting down with John, one of the executive editors of the newspaper chain, hearing all the daunting details of being a “cub reporter.”


Which earlier part of the story does this sentence refer to?



The narrator is not sure which kind of writer she wants to become.


The narrator interviews for a job for which she is not qualified.


The narrator has a long and challenging job search.


The narrator is panicking during her first day on the job.


The passage prior to the text: ⬇



I was in full-on panic mode. Here I was on my first day as an inexperienced reporter having to cover an important story with little guidance. I was starting to regret my decision to take the job. What was I doing here? I wasn’t a journalism major. I didn’t have a “beat.” I didn’t even know all the rules about dealing with sources and off-the-record information.


The previous spring, I’d taken up my boss on his offer and stayed at my part-time job through the summer after college. He gave me more hours, so I was making more money, but I didn’t yet have the responsibility of a “real” job. I’d been an English major and wanted to be a writer, though I had no idea what kind of writer. I’d taken the summer to think about things and prepare for a fall job search.


By the time I began the search for my first full-time job, the job market was in bad shape. During my first few months looking for a job, I sent out countless resumes and only had one interview. Unfortunately, I was very unqualified for the job at the time. Then a woman I worked with at my part-time job told me about a reporter position opening up at the newspaper chain where her daughter worked. Though I’d never thought about being a reporter, I figured it couldn’t hurt to go on the interview. In addition to interview experience, the opportunity meant I was officially networking. All the job search materials I’d read stressed the importance of networking in finding a job.

Read the following lines from Miguel de Cervantes's Don Quixote, in which the
main character attacks a windmill on his horse, Rocinante. Also, compare thetext with the illustration of the same scene by Gustave Doré.
[Don Quixote) charged at Rocinante's fullest gallop and fell upon the first mill that stood in front of him; but as he
drove his lance point into the sail the wind whirled i round
with such force that it shivered the lance to pieces, - sweeping with it horse and rider, who went rolling over on the plain, in a sorry condition.
What is one distinction between the text and the illustration that is a result of the difference in medium?
O A. The image shows the scene from directly in front of Don Quixote.
O B. The image focuses on the lance piercing the sail of the windmill.
O C. The text specifies that Don Quixote attacked the windmill first.

Which is the best meaning of the phrase "she’ll not be hit with Cupid’s arrow”?

Answers

Answer:

She does not want to fall in love with anyone.

Explanation:

The phrase 'to be hit with Cupid's arrow' is based on classical mythology. Cupid is the son of Venus and Mercury and he is associated with love and desire. He carries arrows with which he shoots his victims. When a person is hit by an arrow, the person immediately falls in love. Therefore, as the quote states that she will not be hit with an arrow, the suggestion is that she will not fall in love with anyone.

There are, for example, the Spartans and the Romans. The Spartans held Athens and Thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. The Romans, in order to hold Capua, Carthage, and Numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. They wished to hold Greece as the Spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. How does the text structure help the author convey his central idea in this chapter? By describing the actions taken by the Spartans and the Romans, Machiavelli sets up a comparison with the actions of other conquering forces discussed in the chapter. By contrasting the outcomes of Spartan and Roman conquests, Machiavelli provides evidence to support his claim that a prince must destroy a free city in order to hold it. By contrasting the goals of the Spartans and the Romans, Machiavelli establishes the problem of maintaining control of a conquered city, to which he will propose a solution. By listing the effects of these Spartan and Roman conquests, Machiavelli supports his overall description of how princes do or do not maintain control over the cities they conquer.

Answers

Answer:

The text structure helps the author convey his central idea in this chapter:

B. By contrasting the outcomes of Spartan and Roman conquests, Machiavelli provides evidence to support his claim that a prince must destroy a free city in order to hold it.

Explanation:

Niccolò Machiavelli, born in 1469, was an Italian political philosopher and statesman. The excerpt we are analyzing here belongs to his book "The Prince", published in 1532.

The structure of the passage contrasts the results of different conquests. According to Machiavelli, whenever a country conquers another, it is important to rule it personally or through an oligarchy, or to ruin it. Those are the ways to hold that country, keep it in one's possession. Any other way will lead to losing it.

That is why he mentions the Spartans and the Romans. The Spartans lost the lands they conquered because they gave them too much freedom. The Romans, on the other hand, were able to hold certain countries only because they dismantled them. This contrast serves as evidence to support the ideas above.

Answers

1 Initial Consonant - jar, juice, horse, bee, suite


2 Initial Consonant - sky, crabs, pneumonia, fly, Britain, tray, choir


3 Initial Consonant - straight, scratch, shrink

One initial consonant: sky, jar, fly, horse, Britain, and scratch. Two initial consonant: crabs, bee, juice, tray.

What is consonant?

A consonant is a speech sound produced by partially or completely blocking the flow of air out of the mouth with the speech organs in linguistics.

Consonants are made by restricting the vocal tract in some way, usually with the lips, tongue, teeth, and/or glottis. An initial consonant is a consonant that is pronounced at the beginning of a word.

Vowels do not function as consonants. There are five vowels in the English language (a, e, i, o, u), and the remaining letters are consonants.

The task specifically requests words with one, two, or three initial consonants, so vowels must be avoided.

Here,

One initial consonant: sky, jar, fly, horse, Britain, and scratch.Two initial consonant: crabs, bee, juice, tray.Three initial consonant: straight, pneumonia, suite, shrink, and choir.

Thus, these are the consonants present.
