Read the selection below from Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift and answer the question that follows.
I had, as I before observed, one private pocket, which escaped their search, wherein there was a pair of spectacles
(which I sometimes use for the weakness of my eyes) a pocket perspective, and some other little conveniences;
which, being of no consequence to the emperor, I did not think myself bound in honor to discover, and I apprehended
they might be lost or spoiled if I ventured them out of my possession.
What event is being described in the passage above?
O Gulliver's plan to escape from Lilliput
O preparation for Gulliver's lengthy imprisonment
O Lilliputian inventory of Gulliver and his possessions
O Gulliver's speech about freedom to the Lilliputians

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Give the possible interpretations of the following ambiguous sentence:
“I could not sleep because of the cricket”

Answers

Sort Answer: The word "cricket" might refer to an insect or to a sport.

Explanation

An ambiguous sentence is a series of words that can express two different ideas based on the context that is applied to it. According to the above, the sentence "I could not sleep because of the cricket" is an ambiguous sentence because it can have two interpretations depending on the context. One interpretation is that it refers to the fact the speaker could not sleep because of the sound of the animal "cricket" and another interpretation is that he could not sleep because he was watching a cricket game (sport).

Write a letter giving your opinion and the reasons for your opinion to your friend to tell her/him about factory farming. Are you for or against it?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

To whom it may concern,

      I'd like to state my opinion on factory farming. As most human beings we do not think about factory farming, because most of us know that it will make use feel sad. The animals in these farms are being kept in cages with hundreds of other animals of the same species. They are kept there without being able to move from how many of them are stuffed into these cages, and remain there until it is their time to be executed. This is a horrible way to live, and is basically torture. I think we should find a better way or completely get rid of these farms, but that is just my personal opinion. I hope this letter reaches you well.

Read the excerpt from Team Moon.

The trouble with option 2 was that the venting might push the fuel to an unstable condition. Or, another possible outcome of the “burping”: what if the landing gear hadn’t deployed correctly? Could any movement, or any resulting burst—no matter how small—tip the LM over? Many a voice in the debate thought the safest option was to abort—now! But that opinion was quickly overruled by the Grumman and NASA leadership (who were confident of the landing gear), and the consensus of the leaders was that it would be safe to gently, gently burp the engine.

Why does the author use a problem-solution text structure in the paragraph?

to help the reader understand the astronauts’ feelings about the landing
to help the reader understand the intense pressure of the situation
to help the reader understand the similarities between the leaders’ options
to help the reader understand the process of “burping” an engine

Answers

Answer:

To help the reader understand the intense pressure of the situation.

Explanation:

Catherine Thimmesh's "Team Moon: How 400,000 People Landed Apollo 11 on the Moon," tells the story of how a team of experts helped in the success of the Apollo 11 mission. The book delves into the challenges faced and how they were overcome by the whole team.

In the given excerpt from the text, the author reveals the problem faced by the team in "burping" the engine. While it seemed dangerous to do that, the opinion to abort the mission was "quickly overruled by the Grumman and NASA leadership" who instead decided that "it would be safe to gently, gently burp the engine."

And by presenting the scene with a problem-solution text structure, the author helps the reader understand the intense pressure that the situation presents.

write two paragraphs to compare and contrast the narrators schools and explain how their schools shape their perspectives toward the hijab. Cite evidence from the text to support your ideas

Answers

Answer:

Monica comes from an islamic school. She knows and understands the islamic values, and respects them. Monica respects her elders. She also values, respects, and understands the importance of hijabs. She believes in everything because it's what is taught and encouraged at his school. Lilly on the other hand, believes the complete opposite, because of the influence of the people around her, and because her school doesn't teach anything about islam.

Explanation:

It's the influence and attitude of people around you, and how much your educated that changes anything!

Answer:

Marjane and Amal have very different experiences, which are revealed in the texts and which help explain the characters’ perspectives. Marjane goes to a coed French school when she is young, but later attends an Islamic school for girls. The law requires her to wear a hijab both in and out of school, whether she wants to or not. As a result of this experience, she views the veil negatively.

On the other hand, Amal goes to an Islamic high school, after having attended a Catholic school for much of her childhood. In the novel, the narrator talks about choosing whether or not to wear the hijab outside of school. She comes to admire and respect the girls who make the choice to do so. As a result of her experience, she displays a more positive perspective on wearing the veil.
