It was no great distance, in those days, from the prison-door to the market-place. Measured by the prisoner's experience, however, it might be reckoned a journey of some length; for, haughty as her demeanour was, she perchance underwent an agony from every footstep of those that thronged to see her, as if her heart had been flung into the street for them all to spurn and trample upon. What is the meaning of this excerpt
Answer:
It means that the walk from the prison-door to the marketplace seems trecherous and long to Hester Prynne.
Explanation:
Nathanael Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter" is about the story of Hester Prynne, a woman convicted of adultery, and the "punishment" that was given to her. The novel also deals with themes of society, religion, good vs. evil, public shaming, social stigma, etc.
In the given excerpt, the narrator is talking about the "walk" from the prison door to the marketplace where Hester will be 'on display' for the public to see. The narrator reveals, "measured by the prisoner's experience, [the walk] might be reckoned a journey of some length" which is how it was more of "an agony from every footstep" for Hester. These lines show how Hester thinks the walk is long and treacherous for her.

Which journalistic decisions would violate the code of ethics set by the Society of Professional Journalists? Select two options.
A newspaper places an ad on the page opposite an article about foreign policy.
A journalist reports on a series of robberies that occurred in his own neighborhood.
A reporter writes a story about his wife’s company without revealing their relationship.
A magazine runs a series of articles speculating about a celebrity’s medical history.
An editor refuses to publish an article about a politician due to questionable sources.
C. A reporter writes a story about his wife’s company without revealing their relationship.
D. A magazine runs a series of articles speculating about a celebrity’s medical history.
Explanation:The code of ethics set by the Society of Professional Journalists includes acting independently and reporting without bias. If a reporter writes a story about his wife's company and keeps their relationship a secret, it is very likely that the reporter is biased towards his wife, and this makes sense.
Another rule in the code of ethics is minimizing harm, like showing compassion to those affected by coverage and keeping personal information private. Medical history is often confidential information. Speculating a celebrity's medical history may cause people to negatively view the celebrity.

What myth does Prometheus appear in and what is it about what should you second research question be
Prometheus was considered the “Benefactor of Man”, and it is a title that he deserves in Greek mythology. Prometheus and his brother was given the important job of bringing life to the earth. Prometheus and Epimetheus would make animals and man from clay, and then Zeus breathed life into them. Prometheus and his brother were then given the job of giving the new creatures names, as well as “attributing all the characteristics to the creatures that the other Greek gods and goddesses had manufactured.”
Epimetheus took charge of this task. But, “having only “afterthought”, as mentioned by the article: “Greek Legends and Myths”, “Epimetheus used up all the characteristics provided before he got to man. Zeus would not allocate any more characteristics, but Prometheus would not simply leave his new creations unprotected and naked in a new world.”Prometheus secretly went through the workshops of the gods, and in the chambers of Athena he found wisdom and reason, so he stole them, and gave them to man.
In another instance Zeus took away fire from humanity and Prometheus retrieved it because he saw his creation suffered from cold. So, Zeus sent him away and tied him up. And, an Eagle would be sent every day to remove his regrown liver.
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.
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.

"Think of all the beauty that’s still left in and around you and be happy."
—from The Diary of Anne Frank by Anne Frank
Even in difficult circumstances, some people focus on the positive aspects of life. Think carefully about this statement.
Write an essay stating your opinion on whether a person can choose to be happy. Be sure to —
• state your position clearly
• use appropriate organization
• provide specific support for your argument
• choose your words carefully
• edit your writing for grammar, mechanics, and spelling
Answer:
A person can absolutely choose to be happy. It is often easy to look at someone like Anne Frank and say that she was in a situation where one can't be happy. But, Anne Frank has showed us that happiness is not reliant upon circumstance. In incredibly difficult circumstances one has every right to feel negative emotions. The most important thing is that we remember that even though we experience negative emotions we shouldn't let them overrun us. We should accept our circumstances, experience our emotions,and then choose happiness.

in the story.
The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.
Answer:
B. The narrator's mental state
B. feeling of being trapped and her desire to escape
Explanation:
"The Yellow Wallpaper" describes the declining mental health of a woman most likely suffering from post-partum depression. She becomes increasingly obsessed with the patterns of the yellow wallpaper in her bedroom, and starts to believe she can see a creeping woman, trapped behind it.
From the options provided, the one that correctly explains what the wallpaper symbolizes is the narrator's mental state, because the narrator (the woman writing her diary) is having a mental breakdown; the problem is not her social status, physical health, or the relationship with her husband.
From the options provided, the one that correctly explains what the narrator projects onto the woman creeping behind the wallpaper is the feeling of being trapped and her desire to escape because she has been forced to "rest" and is not allowed to leave.
Is not boredom, because she could have lots of things to do in a normal situation, nor anxiety for her baby, because that is not something she expresses and is not a lack of company what she doesn´t like, as she would much prefer to be left alone.
