Explanation:
Consider these versions of The War of the Worlds.
Excerpt 1, from H. G. Wells's novel The War of the Worlds:
The common round the sand pits was dotted with people, standing like myself in a half-fascinated terror, staring at these creatures, or rather at the heaped gravel at the edge of the pit in which they lay. And then, with a renewed horror, I saw a round, black object bobbing up and down on the edge of the pit. It was the head of the shopman who had fallen in, but showing as a little black object against the hot western sun. Now he got his shoulder and knee up, and again he seemed to slip back until only his head was visible. Suddenly he vanished, and I could have fancied a faint shriek had reached me.
Excerpt 2, from Howard E. Koch's script for Orson Welles's radio adaptation:
PHILLIPS: Ladies and gentlemen, you've just heard Mr. Wilmuth, owner of the farm where this thing has fallen. I wish I could convey the atmosphere . . . the background of this . . . fantastic scene. Hundreds of cars are parked in a field in back of us. Police are trying to rope off the roadway leading to the farm. But it's no use. They're breaking right through. Cars' headlights throw an enormous spot on the pit where the object's half buried. Some of the more daring souls are now venturing near the edge. Their silhouettes stand out against the metal sheen.
Which statement best describes the similarity between these versions?

Both versions impart setting details through colorful description.
Both versions explain the background of a scientific phenomenon.
Both versions use characterization to show the locals' intelligence.

The statement which best describes the similarity between these versions is:
B. Both versions impart setting details through colorful description.
Explanation:
H. G. Wells was an English author (1866-1946) who wrote the famous novel "War of the Worlds," in which martians invade the Earth. As we know, the novel was adapted and broadcast via radio in 1938 to sound as if it were news bulletins. Allegedly, some people panicked while listening to the radio, truly believing the planet was under attack. However, we now know it was not a generalized panic.
Both excerpts give a colorful, vivid description of the scene before the narrator's eyes. Word choice makes it possible for readers, in the first case, and listeners, in the second, to really see, hear, or even feel the same things as the narrator. With the first excerpt, we can see the person who fell into the pit trying to leave it, only to slip back and then be dragged by some mysterious creature. With the second passage, we can see the cars, the police, the headlights, and finally the shadows of the people who have approached the object that fell from the sky.
Answer: B
Explanation: Both versions impart setting details through colorful description.

PART A: Which statement identifies the central idea of the text?
Answer:
In the face of failure, it’s beneficial for people to focus on the things they can control, including how they respond to the failure.
Explanation:
Bethany Brookshire's "Lessons From Failure: Why we try, try again" talks about people's reactions to failure and how we respond to it. The informational text also talks about why we try, try again despite numerous failures.
In the text, the author states how failure is a normal part of human life. But at the same time, it is upon us how we respond to such failures. And throughout the text, she presents the central idea of how "rethinking our emotional responses seems to help" is the ideal recourse.
The statement that best identifies the central idea of the text is that in the face of failure, it is beneficial to focus on the things that we can control rather than brood over it. Also, remaining calm and positive despite the failures is important.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

control in Japan. The rigorous training for these
warriors began in childhood. Trainees studied self-
discipline, martial arts, and poetry. They were also
expected to follow a guiding code of conduct called
Bushido, which translates to "the way of the warrior."
Additionally, young warriors spent hours perfecting
their skills in horseback riding and archery. After years
of preparation, the warriors were ready for battle. In
conflicts, samurai were covered head to toe. They
wore heavy iron breastplates to protect their chests,
and leather armor to shield their arms shoulders,
thighs, and shins. They wore bulky metal helmets that

“A Sound Of Thunder”
Choose the letter of the word or phrase that matches the word in italics
The boxer was resilient-- every time he was knocked down he got back up.
Resilient is in italics
A. Capable of withstanding shock
B. Stubbornly irrational
C. Consistently unbeatable
D. Capable of using defensive motion
PLEASE HELP!!!
Answer:
C or A
Explanation:
Its either a or c because b and d don't make sense. If I was asked that question, I would probably pick c.
Capable of withstanding shock is the letter of the word or phrase that matches the word in italics. Hence, option A is correct.
What is the A Sound Of Thunder?Provides wealthy explorers the chance to travel back in time and hunt extinct animals like dinosaurs. A hunter by the name of Eckels invests $10,000 to join a hunting group that will travel 66 million years in time to the Late Cretaceous period in order to embark on a guided safari to kill a Tyrannosaurus rex.
In "A Sound of Thunder," the butterfly stands in for the delicate ecological balance of the natural world. Bradbury reminds us that a butterfly, like every other species, has a place in the natural order despite its small size.
Thunder is a metaphor for both the dangers of human conceit as well as everyone's unavoidable demise.
Thus, option A is correct.

Karishma is reading "The Tell-Tale Heart." She reads an excerpt, looks for clues, and makes a prediction about what happens next. Read the same excerpt and her prediction.
His room was as black as pitch with the thick darkness, (for the shutters were close fastened, through fear of robbers,) and so I knew that he could not see the opening of the door, and I kept pushing it on steadily, steadily.
Karishma predicted that the narrator would carry out the murder plot undetected.
Next, read the subsequent excerpt that Karishma read.
I had my head in, and was about to open the lantern, when my thumb slipped upon the tin fastening, and the old man sprang up in bed, crying out—"Who's there?"
Which revision is most logical for Karishma to make to her prediction as she continues to read?
A. The narrator would carry out the murder plot undetected.
B. The narrator will be seen, but not heard as the murder is committed.
C. The old man becomes aware of a frightening presence in the room.
D. The old man prepares for his own murder.
Answer:
D. The old man prepares for his own murder.
Explanation:
According to the question, Karishma is reading "The Tell-Tale Heart." and she reads an excerpt, looks for clues, then makes a prediction about what happens next.
According to her first prediction, she believes that the narrator would carry out the murder plot undetected because his approach to the house has been stealthy so far and no one has heard him.
Next, from the subsequent excerpt she reads, the old man hears him as he is about to open the door and asks loudly who is there.
Therefore, the revision that is most logical for Karishma to make to her prediction as she continues to read is that the old man prepares for his own murder.
This is because, he already knows there is an intruder and now he would prepare for his murder.
