Answer:
1. Authors of magical realism often use a matter-of-fact tone. They frequently use a style that makes the unreal sound a little like nonfiction.
2. In magical realism, characters' minds stay focused on the real world even when they encounter magic. Instead of growing as people, they tend to hang onto their negative qualities.
3. In "The Nose," Kovaloff and other characters tend to assume that how things appear is how they really are.
4. When authors show many characters making similar strange choices or sharing similar strange attitudes, it is a good time to think about the theme.
5. "The Nose," like many other magical realist stories, shows characters who change and grow very little from their magical experiences.
Write a short answer for each question.
6. In "A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings" a magical realist story by Gabriel García Márquez, an angel falls out of the sky into a family's backyard. The family keeps the angel locked up and sells tickets to people who want to see him. Eventually, the neighbors' interest decreases, and the angel's presence just annoys the family. Eventually, however, the angel flies away.
Based on what you've read in this activity, do you think the family members learn much as a result of this experience? Why or why not?
I think they don’t learn as much as they should . They probably just go on with their regular and boring lives and are more focused on things like money and power rather than learning a lesson.
7. Do you agree or disagree that the human attachment to appearances is an important theme of "The Nose"? Explain your answer in a few sentences.
I think it’s a theme of the story, but I don’t think it’s the only thing that explains what the story is. I think Gogol also talks a lot about power, since if he were to talk only about appearances then that wouldn't give us enough information and I think he talks a lot about power too since power and looks mixed with money control the world.

Poem: bag of bone
3. The focus of the poem shifts at line 30. How does this
shift contribute to the meaning of the poem?
O A As the speaker turns from mourning murder victims
to accusing their executioner, the poem focuses on
the injustice of the dictator's rule.
B The focus of the poem shrinks from that of a mass
grave to the life of one man, and this emphasizes
survivors' feelings of guilt.
OC The scope of the poem expands from a meditation
on death to a criticism of tyranny, and this develops
the poem's call to action.
OD As the speaker walks away from the mass grave, the
poem emphasizes how survivors can secure closure.
Answer:
A. As the speaker turns from mourning murder victims to accusing their executioner, the poem focuses on the injustice of the dictator's rule.
Explanation:
A. is the right answer. Around line 30 of the poem the shift occurs, the poet talks about the dictator as the murderer and points finger at him as the unjust ruler and tyrant. The author is explaining how it is the dictator’s fault that millions are dead and how he also has “the heart and the skull”, and so does the audience that claps and supports him, but which can become the victim as well.
B. is not the right answer. The poem does not explore the experiences of survivors' feelings of guilt.
C. is not the right answer. The poem does not call people to action against the dictator.
D. is not the right answer. There is no part about securing closure for certain, and the poem ends ambiguously.
Which of these passages would most likely be part of an expository text?
Passage 1
What makes weather? Earth's temperature is partly responsible. Water vapor in the air moves from one place to another depending on
temperature. Warm air rises, and cold air sinks. As the warm air around the equator rises, it moves toward the poles and is cooled. The cold air
around the poles also moves toward the equator. While this is happening, Earth is spinning. The spin of the planet is called its rotation. The
rotation of Earth is also important to weather. As Earth spins, the sun can warm only part of it at any one time. The other part faces away from
the sun. It is cooler. As a result, the rotation of Earth creates constantly changing temperatures.
Passage 2
My plan is to refurbish cars and then turn around and sell them to people. There are a million cars that are dumped at wreckage lots, and I can
use the money I get from my summer job to buy a car and the parts I need for it.junkyards are a gold mine for parts, and they are cheap there. I
can spend my free time putting the cars back together, and then I can sell the car to someone for a lot more than it cost me to fix it. I first
learned how to work on cars years ago with training from my uncle. He was an expert mechanic on his farm back in the 1930s. Learning from
him was one of the most beneficial and interesting experiences I had while living in California.

Until this moment, I had looked upon thgwalley as my grave. I had seen no possibility of getting out of it alive. But now I found courage and

then chose the piece of meat that seemed best for my purpose. With my turbantled meat firmly to my back. This done, I laid face down and

piece of meat, and me with it. We rose slowly toward its nest, into which it dropped me,

Explanation:
is the bold clause or phrase a dangling modifier? O
Perry the Platypus's training classes were attended
before becoming a yo-yo expert.
Dangling Modifier
No Error
k
Answer:
It is a dangling modifier.
Explanation:
I'll assume that the bolded phrase was before becoming a yo-yo expert.
A modifier is a word that gives more information about another word. A dangling modifier is a modifier that could be misinterpreted as being associated with a word other than the one intended. Accordingly, in the given sentence, we could think that the phrase before becoming a yo-yo expert could refer to the training classes instead of Perry the Platypus.

What did the Romantics think about imagination?
Answer:
The Romantics tended to define and to present the imagination as our ultimate "shaping" or creative power, the approximate human equivalent of the creative powers of nature or even deity. It is dynamic, an active, rather than passive power, with many functions. Imagination is the primary faculty for creating all art.

Answer:
In order for the scholars to know whether the three languages actually mean the same thing. It allowed them to fully understand the Egyptian hieroglyphics and how these were written.
Explanation:
The question is related to the popular "Rosetta Stone," which is preserved in the British Museum these days. By the end of the 4th century, hieroglyphics was no longer being used, so it was hard for the scholars to understand this ancient Egyptian kind of writing.
Luckily, in the 19th century, the scholars thought about using the Greek inscriptions in order to decipher the other languages. Such discovery became important in providing people a knowledge about hieroglyphics.

what’s historical irony
Answer:
Explanation:the future is unwritten — at least that’s what they say — but the past is very much written. From a present-day perspective, we can learn about what was done and whether or not it worked. In storytelling, historical irony gives your characters perspective. It is a very specific type of situational irony so let’s talk about how it can be used effectively with examples from David Fincher, George Lucas, and Guillermo del Toro.

The checkered cab company charges a flat rate of $1.75 flat rate in addition to $0.65 per mile. Mandy has no more than $12.00 to spend on a cab ride. Write an inequality to represent the situation. How many miles can Mandy travel without exceeding her limit?
Answer: 15.769 miles
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a checkered cab company charges a flat rate of $1.75 flat rate in addition to $0.65 per mile. Mandy has no more than $12.00 to spend on a cab ride.
Let the miles that Mandy can travel without exceeding her limit be represented by y.
The inequality will now be:
1.75 + 0.65y ≤ 12
0.65y ≤ 12 - 1.75
0.65y ≤ 10.25
y ≤ 10.25/0.65
y ≤ 15.769
Mandy can travel 15.769 miles without exceeding her limit?
Imagine you are trying to persuade your parents to allow you to stay out late.
Which 4 persuasive techniques would you use?
Answer:
Got a party to go but stuck with a curfew?! UGH! Here are some ways to ask your parents to extend your curfew and so you can get your groove on that upcoming party!
1) Be Responsible
If you currently have a curfew, make sure to always get home on time. This will build trust with your parents and show them you will do the same with a later curfew.
2) Ask respectfully
Don't demand a later curfew and don't scream if your parents don't allow you to stay out later than you want. Show respect to your parents and ask nicely.
3) Make your case
Tell them where you are going and when you will be back. Assure them that you are going to a safe place and that they have nothing to worry about!
4) Invite a sibling
Parents always feel safer when they know you are with someone else they trust so invite your brother or sister out with you! This way your parents will feel much more comfortable letting you stay out late!
5) Reassure with friends
If you can't ask your siblings to come along, let your parents know that a friend they know and trust will be coming with you!
If all else fails, compromise and meet your parents in the middle! They might feel comfortable letting you stay out a bit late instead of super late!
