Answer: A though proof of Hektor

Heroes have outstanding qualities like strength. Heroes occasionally rely on divine assistance.
What was ancient Greek society like?The separate city-states that made up Greek society were united by a common culture and religion. Traditions like the Panhellenic Games helped the ancient Greeks to become one people. Greek architecture was created to accommodate public gathering places and religious events.
The strongest and bravest warrior in the Greek conflict against the Trojans was Achilles. His mother submerged him in the River Styx when he was a baby, rendering him defenseless save for the heel with which she clutched him. Achilles served as the Trojan War's greatest hero for ten years.
Thus, A is the best choice. Through evidence of Hektor's outstanding bravery, the extract illuminates traditional Greek beliefs.

Read the statement below and decide whether you agree or disagree with it. Be prepared to support your opinion with details from the reading. Here's your discussion prompt:
Independence is a universal human need.
What do you think? Write a paragraph supporting your opinion and then write a reply paragraph. If you're working with others, your reply paragraph should respond to the ideas of another student. If you're working alone, your reply paragraph should support the opposite point of view from your own.
Answer:
Recently there has been a ton of debate as to whether independence is a universal human need or not, It’s my firm belief that all men are born equal and have right to pursue what they want, so independence is needed and I feel this way for various reasons that will explain in the subsequent paragraphs
First and foremost, every well develop nation on this planet is conserving the values of freedom and independence, as a consequence it’s remarkable throughout history, that those nations development relied mostly in a strong based constitution that always had independence as a universal right, for men and women equally theoretically.
Secondly, nations around the globe that prevent its denizens to have freedom and independence are more likely to suffer from third nation’s symptoms, for instance hunger and lack of infrastructure. If we take Brazil as an example it’s notorious that once the Brazilian population elected a dictator called Bolsonaro, the country is suffering from the consequences of preventing freedom and independence for its denizens resulting in the most dangerous crisis that Brazil is passing through
In the light of all above, it’s clear to see how independence as a universal human need must be protected at all costs.
Answer:
I disagree with the statement.
I think independence is great if you have a good sense of responsibility and moral integrity. It helps to further self-reliance and resourcefulness but independence isn't for everybody, and I definitely don't believe that it is a human need. It's more of a privilege...independence is something that's earned.
For example, you don't see any convicted felons or psych ward patients walking around freely without supervision during any given time of the day. If you do, they've either escaped or they or are being monitored from time to time. People who act in ways that portray the fact that they are irresponsible or dangerous do not need independence. Likewise, people who are unable take care of themselves are also dependent on others to live. Babies, seniors, and people with disabilities all fit into this category.
Although I agree with the idea that everyone should be able to think by themselves and make their own decisions...what if those decisions are self-destructive and can put people in danger? Freedom without supervision would be anarchy. Period. And even though America was founded on freedom, it is still very much limited.
Independence is great but it is not a fundamental or universal human need. It is earned, wanted, and coveted but it is not for everybody.
Read the following excerpt from “The Gift of the Magi” and answer the question.
For there lay The Combs--the set of combs, side and back, that Della had worshipped long in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs, pure tortoise shell, with jewelled rims--just the shade to wear in the beautiful vanished hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had simply craved and yearned over them without the least hope of possession. And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have adorned the coveted adornments were gone.
But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim! And them Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, "Oh, oh!" Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit."Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it."
Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled."Della," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on."
The magi, as you know, were wise men--wonderfully wise men--who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas presents. Being wise, their gifts were no doubt wise ones, possibly bearing the privilege of exchange in case of duplication. And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. O all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi.

Which two sentences in the passage describe Leila's good study habits?
Leila has midterms coming up in three weeks, so she made a study plan that lists her priorities to help her prepare. Leila's social calendar is so full that she has very little time to study on weekdays, which she hopes to make up for by studying on the weekend. She plans to spend six hours every weekend studying in the library. Leila justifies not taking time out to study on weekdays by telling herself that she needs to have other interests. She hopes that studying for long periods without a break will help her learn all the important class material.
Answer:
1.) Leila has midterms coming up in three weeks, so she made a study plan that lists her priorities to help her prepare
2.) She plans to spend six hours every weekend studying in the library
Explanation:
From the passage, we could infer that Leila is also the social type and attends a lot of social events, this could be culled from where it was said that her social calendar is full and as such has not time to study on weekdays. However, she was able to carve out two study habits from the passage ;
1.) Making a study plan that list her priorities that could aid her preparation.
2.) Her plan to spend 6 hours every weekend studying in the library.

Answer:
Look for an example of a simile or metaphor within chapters 7-9 of The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man. Write the example in the space below, indicating the chapter it is from and what is being compared. What does this simile or metaphor do in the text? In other words, how does it help the reader?
A reader who has not been told that James Weldon Johnson’s The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man is a novel can be forgiven for not knowing how to classify it. When it was first published, anonymously, in 1912, the book included a preface from the publisher, written almost exactly as Johnson proposed, that described it as a “new picture of conditions brought about by the race question in the United States” (p. xxxiii). The preface suggests that what follows is a sociological study. But in the novel’s first paragraph, the unnamed narrator tells us that he is “divulging the great secret” of his life, moved by “the same impulse which forces the un-found-out criminal to take somebody into his confidence” (p. 1). This beginning prepares us for a confessional narrative such as those by St. Augustine or Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Exemplifying the capacity of novels to absorb other genres, The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man is a sociological study in terms of its analysis of the dynamics of race, class, and geography, and a confessional narrative, albeit a fictional one. But it is as a novel that Johnson’s book engages us most urgently, in that the story of its narrator’s life is ultimately a plea for the reader’s understanding.

Read the passage from "The Tell-Tale Heart.”
(WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST)
I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! He had the eye of a vulture–a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold; and so by degrees–very gradually–I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever. Now this is the point. You fancy me mad. Madmen know nothing. But you should have seen me. You should have seen how wisely I proceeded—with what caution—with what foresight—with what dissimulation I went to work! I was never kinder to the old man than during the whole week before I killed him.
How is suspense created for the reader in this passage?
The reader wonders where the old man lives.
The reader is waiting to find out details of the murder.
The reader envisions a vulture with pale blue eyes.
The reader does not know why the old man is killed.
Answer:
The reader is waiting to find out details of the murder.
( i personally love this story btw )
Suspense is created for the reader in this passage in the sense that the reader is waiting to find out details of the murder, as stated in option B.
What is suspense?A story is suspenseful when it leaves readers curious, guessing what will happen next. Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart," which we are analyzing here, creates suspense in several different ways.
In the passage we are analyzing here, suspense is created when readers are left curious about the details of the murder. The narrator reveals he has murdered a man and that he did it with caution and dissimulation. Now, all that is left to know is how exactly it was done.
With the information above in mind, we can select option B as the correct answer.

The rocket girls will now get the recognition they deserve and inspire a new generation of female engineers.” Explain the given sentence in context with the poem ‘As I grew older
Answer:
Like Langston Hughes' poem declaring dreams achieved, the story of the rocket girls inspired a lot of younger generations, irrespective of gender or race, to dream big and work for it.
Explanation:
The poem "As I grew older" is a poem by Langston Hughes. The poem revolves around a dream, a desire to achieve a lost dream.
The statement "the rocket girls will now get the recognition they deserve and inspire a new generation of female engineers" is in reference to the black women who worked at NASA and participated in the agency's space missions. And as Hughes talks about a dream with a wall so high being achieved, the story of these NASA women shared a similar theme of the achievement of that unforgotten dream.
And so, like the poem's declaration,
My hands!
My dark hands!
Break through the wall!
Find my dream!
Help me to shatter this darkness,
To smash this night,
To break this shadow
Into a thousand lights of sun,
Into a thousand whirling dreams
Of sun!
the rocket girls show how dreams are achievable, no limits. They will now be recognized and appreciated for their contribution to the most important event in the history of space missions for America. And it was the inspiring story of these women of color that would lead future generations with dreams even that are thought unachievable.

Dear Diary,
Yesterday, I went to visit some friends and had a great time. They were talking about how they had a family picnic and enjoyed themselves. But when it comes to me, I am left with no stories to tell.
This was because my father is out of state and unable to come home. The pandemic has left us separated, and that has been a huge blow to our holiday plans. Added to that, daddy's area has bad reception which leads to another frustration altogether. My only hope is that I want my dad to get home as soon as possible.
Praying for his safety and health.
Goodnight.

Read the excerpt from "Healthy Eating." She can also scan food to determine whether she's met her daily need. "So after I have breakfast and lunch, and if I've had too many carbs, by dinner I know I have to cut back," she said. And that kind of tailoring is key, nutritionists say. "People want me to just tell them what to eat, give them a meal plan. But they'll only follow it for two weeks," [dietician] Castro-Romero said. "So I get them to focus on the foods they're eating now and improve. One group might be soda drinkers. So we work to decrease rather than eliminate. "It's really trying to keep it simple and look at small changes. I like to say small changes produce big results." Based on this excerpt, the dietician wants people to .
This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find them online. They are the following:

B. eliminate all unhealthy foods

D. make small adjustments to their diets
Answer:
Based on the excerpt, the dietician wants people to:
D. make small adjustments to their diets.
Explanation:
In the passage, dietician Castro-Romero explains that following a set plan is not a good idea. People expect dieticians to give them a meal plan, but then they only follow it for a couple of weeks. According to Castro-Romero, the best strategy is to make small adjustments. You do not have to cut carbs, for instance. But, if you eat too much of it for breakfast and lunch, you can avoid it when having dinner. Such adjustments are more efficient and "produce big results."
