We are especially lucky to be able to hear it so late at night and think it is especially thoughtful of you to make sure the sound of the music penetrates all the way to our bedroom at the back of the apartment , where we sleep. It is so nice to drift off to the sound of your electric guitars and drums! Would it be possible to make requests ? We love the Beatles anything from the early albums would be fantastic !

Where it is. Will you decide what men shall live, what men shall die? It may be, that in the sight of Heaven, you are more worthless and less
fit to live than millions like this poor man's child. Oh God! to hear the Insect on the leaf pronouncing on the too much life among his hungry

How could a theater director most effectively change a Shakespeare play to
make it more familiar to a modern American audience?
A. Include a narrator to explain any difficult language
B. Move the play's setting to the United States
C. Change the play's events so that no characters die
D. Alter the language so characters speak in contemporary accents
Answer:
A. Include a narrator to explain any difficult language
Explanation:
A. Include a narrator to explain any difficult language would be the most effective way for a theater director to make a Shakespeare play more familiar to a modern American audience. This would help the audience understand the play's language and context better and enhance their enjoyment and appreciation of the play. Moving the setting to the United States or altering the language so characters speak in contemporary accents might change the play's authenticity and intended meaning. Changing the play's events so that no characters die would alter the play's plot and themes, which could negatively impact the play's overall impact and message.
Nuclear Power: No Need for a Meltdown
The ability to split atoms and harness the power released has been around since the 1950s. Nuclear power is a safe, relatively clean, and renewable source of energy.
Considering the energy costs of the United States, it makes good sense to develop the American nuclear power industry. At present there are just over 100 nuclear plants in America providing 20% of our nation's electricity needs. No new nuclear power plants have been built since the 1970s. While America has neglected nuclear power plant development, other countries have enthusiastically utilized nuclear power plants to lessen their greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels.
Modern advances in nuclear reactor construction and monitoring have resulted in safer energy production. Accidents that occurred in the past, like the famous meltdown at Chernobyl in Russia, are very unlikely in the twenty-first century. Nuclear power is safer than ever before.
Unfortunately, the initial costs in building a nuclear power plant are very high. Nuclear reactors can cost as much as eight billion dollars. Another challenge is that building plants that meet the safety requirements of the American public takes a long time. Financing such long term construction products are often beyond the ability or not in the interests of private commercial banks. Since banks are unwilling or unable to lend the money, the federal government should step in and finance construction. Other governments around the world justify financing nuclear power plant construction as a vital national interest; we should too.
Which of the following best states the author's purpose?
A. To determine the difference between energy sources
B. To inform readers about how nuclear energy works
C. To persuade governments to use more nuclear energy
D. To teach others about the dangers of nuclear energy
Answer:
C. To persuade governments to use more nuclear energy

Then I went and looked online for different topics ideas. That’s when I came across “should cell phones be banned in school.” I thought that the ban on cell phones would be easier to write about than competitive college. With the first topic I did had to look up acceptance rates for different schools. With the cell phone ban I didn’t have to look up any information to put into the paper. The only thing I looked up was about the Deer Creek shooting to just refresh my mind. I did write some paragraphs on a separate piece of paper to get ideas going.

Read the excerpt from "Politics and the English Language" by George Orwell. Probably it is better to put off using words as long as possible and get one’s meaning as clear as one can through pictures or sensations. Afterwards one can choose—not simply accept—the phrases that will best cover the meaning, and then switch round and decide what impressions one’s words are likely to make on another person. This last effort of the mind cuts out all stale or mixed images, all prefabricated phrases, needless repetitions, and humbug and vagueness generally. Which best describes George Orwell’s purpose and the way he achieves it in this excerpt? Orwell’s purpose is to inform his readers about political events.
