30 points to whoever answers

Incomplete question.

Answered based on the full poem as found on the Georgia Online Formative Assessment Resource (GOFAR).

Answer:

she later came to develop an interest in her kickboxing class

Explanation:

For example, we notice in the earlier stanzas, Ballerina has a complacent attitude about her kickboxing class. This was evident when she said,

"My kickboxing class has as much grace as

A herd of stomping elephants.

Stampeding towards a watering hole.

It’s a far cry from warming up on the bar, "

However, a change in her attitude begins to occur in the last six stanzas of the poem. She begins to cooperate with her instructor, made evident when she said, "...But I force myself to bounce on the balls of my feet like he told me. " Furthermore, she finally came to appreciate the kickboxing class that she said,

"...when we finish and step back, the class breaks into applause.

I curtsy, laughing, and shake hands with my teacher,

Who has taught me so much more than I expected."

Read the passage from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

"Special edition. Shocking murder of an M.P.” That was the funeral oration of one friend and client; and he could not help a certain apprehension lest the good name of another should be sucked down in the eddy of the scandal. It was, at least, a ticklish decision that he had to make; and self-reliant as he was by habit, he began to cherish a longing for advice. It was not to be had directly; but perhaps, he thought, it might be fished for.

Mr. Utterson’s internal conflict is that he

is afraid of Mr. Jekyll.

GIVE ME LIBERTY
The Struggle for Self-Government in Virginia
Thomas J. Wertenbaker

Chapter I: The Cornerstone of Liberty
Three little vessels—the Susan Constant, the Godspeed, and the Discovery—left England in December, 1606, under the command of Captain Christopher Newport, to found a colony on the distant shores of Virginia. Two decades earlier Sir Walter Raleigh had sent out a group of settlers to what is now North Carolina, and they had disappeared mysteriously. What had happened to them? men asked. Had they been killed by the Indians? Had they fallen victims to disease? Had they starved? Those who shared in this new venture must have wondered if a like fate awaited them in this strange new land.

But their spirits rose when they entered Chesapeake Bay. Landing parties were delighted with the "fair meddowes ... full of flowers of divers kinds and colors," the "goodly tall trees," and the streams of fresh water. It was a smiling country which seemed to bid them welcome. But when they entered the mouth of a broad river, which they called the James in honor of their King, and made their way up into the country, new doubts must have assailed them. They knew that savages lived in the dense forests which lined both banks; might not strange wild beasts live there also? Might there not be fatal diseases unknown in Europe?

excerpt adapted from Telling All Americans’ Stories: Introduction to European Heritage
by National Park Service

In many ways, the story of America is the story of movement—the unprecedented migration of people, ideas, and beliefs. The Statue of Liberty stands as perhaps the most iconic symbol of our nation’s largely immigrant past and its European heritage in particular.

Under the watchful gaze of this imposing monument, lives converged. Between 1892 and 1954, over 12 million immigrants passed through the processing facility on Ellis Island. Many of those people left homes across Europe—particularly England, Ireland, the German and Russian empires, and Scandinavian countries—to escape famine, political and economic oppression, or in search for greater opportunities in America.

Upon crossing America’s shores, European immigrants spread across the North American continent, altering its physical and cultural landscape along the way. These experiences are often told through the treasured European American narrative of the “melting pot”—where diverse groups traveled to a “New World,” where they peopled a nation and forged a uniquely American identity. However, these immigrants arrived on a continent already populated by indigenous nations who possessed their own complex political, economic, and cultural systems. The ensuing encounters between these diverse groups serve as some of the foundational moments in American history. The 1604–1607 maps and documents by Samuel de Champlain are testimony to the interactions between French explorers and the Native peoples living along the coast.

What is the best way to organize the sentences to express how the author develops a central idea in the passage?

A central idea in the text is that many of the people
migrating to America were European immigrants.
The author describes how people came from “England,
Ireland, the German and Russian empires, and
Scandinavian countries—to escape famine, political
and economic oppression, or in search for greater
opportunities in America.”
This detail shapes the idea because it lists European
countries that the people came from and
explains several reasons why they left for America.
