young apple-tree, which, planted by birds or cows, had shot up amid the rocks and open woods there, and had now much fruit on it, uninjured by the frosts, when all cultivated apples were gathered. It was a rank wild growth, with many green leaves on it still, and made an impression of thorniness. The fruit was hard and green, but looked as if it would be palatable in the winter. Some was dangling on the twigs, but more half-buried in the wet leaves under the tree, or rolled far down the hill amid the rocks. The owner knows nothing of it. The day was not observed when it first blossomed, nor when it first bore fruit, unless by the chickadee. There was no dancing on the green beneath it in its honor, and now there is no hand to pluck its fruit,—which is only gnawed by squirrels, as I perceive. It has done double duty,—not only borne this crop, but each twig has grown a foot into the air. And this is such fruit! Bigger than many berries, we must admit, and carried home will be sound and palatable next spring. What care I for other apples so long as I can get these? 2 When I go by this shrub thus late and hardy, and see its dangling fruit, I respect the tree, and I am grateful for Nature’s bounty, even though I cannot eat it. Here on this rugged and woody hillside has grown an apple-tree, not planted by man, no relic of a former orchard, but a natural growth, like the pines and oaks. Most fruits which we prize and use depend entirely on our care. Corn and grain, potatoes, peaches, melons, etc., depend altogether on our planting; but the apple emulates man’s independence and enterprise. It is not simply carried, as I have said, but, like him, to some extent, it has migrated to this New World, and is even, here and there, making its way amid the aboriginal trees; just as the ox and dog and horse sometimes run wild and maintain themselves. 3 Even the sourest and crabbedest apple, growing in the most unfavorable position, suggests such thoughts as these, it is so noble a fruit. Excerpt from "Wild Apples" by Henry David Thoreau. In the public domain. I Hear America Singing by Walt Whitman I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear, Those of mechanics, each one singing his as it should be blithe and strong, The carpenter singing his as he measures his plank or beam, The mason singing his as he makes ready for work, or leaves off work, 5The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat, the deckhand singing on the steamboat deck, The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench, the hatter singing as he stands, The wood-cutter’s song, the ploughboy’s on his way in the morning, or at noon intermission or at sundown, The delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at work, or of the girl sewing or washing, Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else, 10The day what belongs to the day—at night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly, Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs. "I Hear America Singing" by Walt Whitman, from Leaves of Grass. In the public domain. Question 1 Which sentence BEST states the author’s point of view regarding people who are ambitious? A It was a rank wild growth, with many green leaves on it still, and made an impression of thorniness. B Some was dangling on the twigs, but more half-buried in the wet leaves under the tree, or rolled far down the hill amid the rocks. C Most fruits which we prize and use depend entirely on our care.

Answer:

3. Rivers still provide viable routes for shipping, but it is no longer the most feasible method for moving materials.

Explanation:

For a sentence to have a logical transition, there must be an accurate subject-verb or subject-pronoun agreement. It as a pronoun can be used as a subject or object in a sentence. When It is used to describe a subject, the subject is usually in the singular form. For example,

1. It is a book.

The sentence, 'Books are a good source of earning, but it is going extinct' is not correct because there is no agreement between the subject which is in the plural form and the pronoun.

So the third sentence should be worded as 'Rivers still provide viable routes for shipping, but they are no longer the most feasible method for moving materials'.

Answer:

I love to write

Day and night

What would my heart do

But cry, sigh, and be blue

If I could not write

Paraphrase:

The (writer) loves to write! The writer would be very sad if they weren't able to write.

Comparison: While the Poem rhymes and used descriptive words to tell how sad the writer would be if they couldn't write (cry, sigh, be blue) the paraphrase just states clearly and simply the interpretation of the stanza.

Answer:

Here is the second stanza of "The Sparrow":

So birds of peace and hope and love

Come fluttering earthward from above,

To settle on life's window-sills,

And ease our load of earthly ills;

But we, in traffic's rush and din

Too deep engaged to let them in,

With deadened heart and sense plod on,

Nor know our loss till they are gone.

And here is a paraphrase of the stanza:

Peace, hope, and love are like birds that come fluttering down and sit upon our window sills. They try to draw our attention, but we ignore them because our lives are busy. We fail to notice that these elements are missing from our lives, but we regret that failure only when we realize that we have lost them.

The paraphrase does not have the same effect as the poem because it does not use the sound devices. It sounds like a flat statement of facts. However, the ideas gain clarity in the paraphrase.

Answer:

The molar mass is 169g / mol.

Explanation:

To achieve this result you must consider the formula:

[(pº-p) / pº] = [na / (na + nb)]

This formula should be replaced by the values shown in the question as follows:

pº = 0.850 bar

p = 0.845 bar

To find the values of "na" and "nb", we will consider that the letter "m" represents the molecular mass of benzene that is equal to 78, so we have:

na = 0.5 / m; nb = 39/78 = 0.5

Now we can replace all values in the formula:

0.850-0.845 / 0.850 = (0.5 / m) / (0.5 / m) +0.5 =

0.5 / (0.5 = 0.5m) =

1/1 + m =

m = 0.850 / 0.005 - 1 = 169g / mol

Answer:

"Shooting an Elephant"

The Europeans are presented as imperialists who think that they are in control not knowing that they have lost their will power to the natives, whom they think they dominate. The Europeans are described like masked people who have grown to resemble the masks they wear with ingrained habits and prejudices.

The Burmese are presented as idle, idiotic, and lacking the coercive power necessary to be in obvious control of their lives, especially since they have no physical weapons.  However, what they lack in physical weapons, they possess in abundance with the power of the will.  This implies that their lack of physical weapons does not make them powerless in the real sense.  They have will.  With it, they control the Europeans who weld physical power.  

I empathize mostly with the Europeans.  Their portrayal by George Orwell is very sympathetic.  By trying to impose their authority on others, they limit their ability to even control their own lives.  They must dance to the music of the crowd because of the expectations placed on them by the natives.  The same is true of all rulers who have refused to embrace leadership principles, thinking that they are in charge of the people, not realizing that it is the people that control them with their crowd expectations.

Europeans are not accepted by others.  Europeans do not accept others.  Each tribe thinks highly of themselves and belittles the others.  But, we are all human beings, created in God’s image and likeness.  The moment we overcome our prejudices, it is the same moment that we are liberated to fulfil God’s mandate, “to exercise dominion over the earth.”  This dominion is not the domination of other people, but the dominion of the elements that make up the earth, the forces, and the evils that attempt to take over the earth that God has created for the welfare of human beings.  We must collaborate, cherish each other, and find joy in our diversity as humans.  We must act together in love.  Conclusively, George Orwell’s observation is true of all human beings, “when the white man (read, “any class of humanity”) turns tyrant, it is his own freedom that he destroys.”

Explanation:

George Orwell's 1936 short story titled: "Shooting an Elephant" describes his experiences as a police officer in Burma.  In it, he denounces British imperialism as lacking common sense.  Europeans are made a laughing stock of by the natives they try to rule.  According to George Orwell, Imperialism and colonialism are evil as no good has come from the imposition of another's will on others.

Answer:

supported claim

Explanation:

The correct answer is A. Were

Explanation:

Verbs should agree with the subject (person or entity doing the action) and they should be in the correct tense (present, past, or future). In this context, the section "Last year" indicates the action of the sentence occurred in the past, and therefore the verb should be in the past. Moreover, in this sentence, the subject is "the council members", which is a plural subject. This means an appropriate verb for this sentence should be in past and plural form. According to this, the only correct option is "were" because this is the past form of the verb to be, it is used for plural subjects, and it creates a coherent sentence.

Match the underlined word in each verse to its meaning in the context of the poem

the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music

a silly or foolish person

meaning, weight, or significance

reward

a small stream

1. "In which the burthen of the mystery, / In which the heavy and the  weary weight of all this unintelligible world, / Is lightened:"

(from "Tintern Abbey" by William Wordsworth)

2. "Faint I, nor mourn nor murmur, other gifts / Have followed; for such loss, I would believe, / Abundant recompence"

4. "nor yet beside the rill, Nor up the lawn, nor at the wood was he;"

(from "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard" by Thomas Gray)

5. "Where was heard the mingled measure. From the fountain and the caves."

(from "Kubla Khan" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge)

Answer:

burthen - meaning, weight, or significance

recompence - reward

loon - a silly of foolish person

rill - a small stream

measure - the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music

Explanation:

Burthen is an archaic form of spelling "burden". When we think of a burden, we think of something heavy, difficult to carry around. Therefore, burthen means "weight"

Recompence is more commonly spelled "recompense" nowadays. It is the same as reward.

A loon is a foolish or silly person. We can think of a "loony", a crazy or silly person, someone who does not think or see things the way others do.

A rill is, by definition, a small stream or brook. There is not much we can add here.

Finally, measure refers to the rhythm of a poem or a piece of music. We commonly refer to it by "meter" or simply "rhythm", depending on what we mean.
