The excerpt :
Read this paragraph from The Dark Game.
Realizing that they could do more if they banded together, groups of the Richmond Unionists began to organize. As Van Lew built stronger relationships with wounded soldiers, the Unionists made plans to hide Union soldiers who escaped from Libby Prison. In fact, the Van Lew mansion became a primary safe house, a place where escaped prisoners would be hidden and cared for. Elizabeth, her mother, and their servants did all they could to prepare the escaped soldiers for the treacherous journey behind enemy lines as they attempted to rejoin their fellow soldiers. The Unionists well understood that every escapee was a potential source of valuable military intelligence, and they made certain that each soldier was debriefed before starting back to the Union lines.
Answer:
B. Van Lew's home was a safe house for escaped Union soldiers.
Explanation:
The main information which the passage is based on gives insight on how Unionists connived with Van Lew to hide Union soldiers who escaped from Libby Prison in his mansion. Van Lew's mansion was used to provide shelter as it served as a safe house for the wounded union soldiers. These information about how these soldiers were housed is what was discussed in the passage including how Van Lew's mother and servant helped take care of the escaped soldiers.

Which details of Beatty's account of firemen make it credible/incredible? Is his account a history or simply a fable meant to influence Montag's behavior?
Beatty presents real facts about society, which Montag can recognize as true. This makes his speech believable, but he manipulates the information in the speech to influence Montag's behavior.
According to the context of the question, we can see that you are referring to the book "Fahrenheit 451" where we are introduced to a society where books are banned and burned by firefighters.
Montag is one of those firefighters, but after having access to a few books, he begins to question whether his profession acts correctly and whether books, in fact, need to be banned and burned.
Upon realizing this, Captain Beatty, who is the captain of the firehouse to which Montag is a part, gives a long speech, showing why the books were burned and how the firefighters' work began.
Beatty shows that books allowed people to perceive their realities, have ideas, feel sad about situations they cannot change and contend with each other because of different ideas.
He says that the thinking triggered by the books made people unhappy and that was socially disadvantageous. For that reason, the work of firefighters is so important.
Montag recognizes that books are capable of providing questions and interpretations of reality that do not always develop happiness and, therefore, realizes that Beatty's speech is believable.
However Beautty manipulates the information in the speech, without showing that through books society has knowledge and freedom and these are the main basements of happiness. This manipulation is done to influence Montag to behave in favor of firefighters and against books.

Select one:
O a metaphor.
O b. asyndeton.
O c. hyperbole.
O d. allusion
Answer:
The correct answer is C. Hyperbole.
Explanation:
Hyperbole is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or stylistic figure. Hyperbole can also be used in cases of such exaggerations for emphasis or effect. Hyperbole is often used in informal speech as an amplifier, such as saying "the bag weighed a ton." Hyperbole indicates that the speaker found a bag that was extremely heavy, although it was nothing like a literal ton. Understanding hyperbole and its use in context can further enhance the ability to understand the messages sent by the speaker. The use of hyperbole generally conveys feelings or emotions from the speaker, or from those the speaker is talking about. Hyperbole can be used in the form of humor, excitement, trouble and many other emotions, all depending on the context used by the speaker.

70. We each other one day while John a bookin the library and i down beside him a. Met / was reading / sat c. Meet / is reading / have sat b. Had met / was reading / had sat d. Will meet / reads / sat
This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.
Answer: a. Met / was reading / sat
We met each other one day while John was reading a book in the library and I sat down beside him.
Explanation:
Out of the options provided, only the chosen one correctly uses the verb tense for the missing words in the sentence: all the actions happened in the past.
Option c is incorrect because it uses the present tense (meet) and the past perfect (have sat) as if the act of sitting had happened before they met.
Option b. is incorrect because both actions, meeting, and seating, are in the past perfect tense, so there is an action that should happen after that that is missing.
Option d. is incorrect because the act of meeting happens in the future.

if this journey had taken place during my days of study and happiness, it would have afforded me inexpressible pleasure. But a blight had come
over my existence, and I only visited these people for the sake of the Information they might give me on the subject in which my interest was so
terribly profound. Company was irksome to me when alone, I could fill my mind with the sights of heaven and earth; the voice of Henry soothed
me, and I could thus cheat myself into a transitory peace. But busy uninteresting joyous faces brought back despair to my heart. I sawan
insurmountable barrier placed between me and my fellow-men: this barrier was sealed with the blood of Willam and justine, and to reflect on
the events connected with those names filled my soul with anguish.

from book I am Malala.
why?
Radio Mullah puts in so much effort to discourage people from going to school?
please please help me please help me
Answer:
Because he wants to keep people under his rule and within the ideology he wants to impose.
Explanation:
Radio Mullah is an Islamic extremist, cited many times in the book "I am Malala" as one of the main harbingers of Taliban rule in Afghanistan. Malala claims that Radio Mullah had a radio show, where he presented highly conservative and extremist, unscientific, oppressive and incorrect concepts. He was strongly against education, especially for women, and was even capable of bombing schools and killing people who took a stand against him.
He knew that fighting education was the main weapon for him to be able to control the population and make everyone follow their will, because the lack of education made people believe in everything they heard and did not have the ability to question and opine against wrong things. As such, Radio Mullah knew that a population without eucation was easily manipulated and that was his goal.
"I am Malala" is the book that tells the story of Malala, the Muslim girl who fought the Taliban for the right to study.

Which of the following statements is a well-written thesis statement?
"American cities are full of homeless people who do not have access to food, shelter, or restroom facilities."
"It is a shame that there are so many homeless people in our country; something should be done to help them."
"Humanitarian groups often try to assist homeless people by organizing food pantries and providing blankets and personal items to help the less fortunate of their community."

B I u X X Font Sizes
A-
Hi. This question asks you to review a narrative you wrote, for that reason I can't answer it for you, but I'll show you how to answer it.
First you must write your story, not caring about the correct spelling of the words, but writing them the way you think is correct.
You should highlight the words you are in doubt if you spell them correctly and rewrite them on another sheet. In this sheet you will show not only the words that you had doubts about the correct spelling, but what is your doubt. Next, you must show the correct form that these words should be spelled.
Your question states that you must present the words that must have the first capital letter. Words that must have the first capital letter are those that present a person's name, the name of a place, or are written after a period.
For words that you don't know the correct spelling, you should look up that word in a dictionary, or a search engine like g00gle, to see the correct spelling.
