Answer:
Dried-up creek beds across the area have (has) started flowing again thanks to the earthquake that shook our community last month The quake displaced groundwater which has worked its way to the surface.
Explanation:
Subject-verb agreement refers to the relationship between the subject and the verb of the sentence. And according to this agreement, they must agree with each other with regards to the number, i.e, if the subject is singular, so will the verb be and accordingly.
In the given passage, the subject-verb agreement is wrong in the line "Dried-up creek beds across the area has started...". Here, the verb "has" will be changed to "have", with regards to the subject "dried-up creek beds" which is plural, and thus the use of the singular "has" is wrong.
Thus, the incorrect verb is "has" and should be replaced by "have".
After reading The Scarlet Letter, do you feel that there are any modern-day "scarlet letters" that people are forced to wear or endure? Read the article, "Mental Illness Stigma: Overcoming the ‘Scarlet Letter' of Our Times" and decide if you agree or disagree with the author. Create a 3–5 sentence reflection.
Answer:
There are scarlet letters today, even in an evolved and modern society.
Explanation:
The term "scarlet letter" refers to a novel of the same name written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, where a woman carried the letter "A" on her chest to show people that she was an outcast of society and thus marginalized her and provoked the embarrassment to her.
Currently, there are "modern escalating letters" that some citizens carry due to factors they have no control over, such as people who suffer from a mental problem or illness and are treated marginally by society, as shown in the article "Mental Illness Stigma: Overcoming the 'Scarlet Letter' of Our Times ". These scarlet letters unfairly define people and prevent them from improving their living conditions, but make them ashamed, sad and often even sicker.

Read the paragraph from a personal narrative.
1 It may have seemed like an ordinary day to everyone else, but to me, it couldn't have been further from it. 2 Today was my first day working as a waitress at Pete's Pizza Haven, and I could not have been more excited. 3 In fact, I was so excited that I rushed to get ready much faster than I typically do. 4 "I'm ready to go!" I shouted, bouncing down the stairs and flying into the kitchen, where my mom was making breakfast. 5 "I have so much to learn and don't want to be late," I declared for emphasis. 6 My mom just grinned and placed a steaming plate of eggs before me.
Which should be added after sentence 6 to most effectively move the plot forward?
The excitement of my new job started to wane, and I began to reconsider if this was truly how I wanted to spend my summer.
Once I arrived, I quickly learned that my job would also entail wiping tables, mopping floors, and washing dishes.
I gulped down my food, grabbed my bus card, and pecked my mother on the cheek as I raced out the door.
As I think back on my first job, I remember the many mistakes I made and the important lessons I learned.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Answer choice A and D do not bring the plot forward, but rather bring it back to a flashback or thinking, so these choices are incorrect. Answer B completely skips from the narrator being in the kitchen with her mom to being there, with no bridge of action. Answer C, however, gives a sentence where the narrator completes an action that propels the plot forward; finishes her breakfast and leaves.
The sentence to be added after sentence 6 to most effectively move the plot forward is I gulped down my food, grabbed my bus card, and pecked my mother on the cheek as I raced out the door.
What is plot?In a literary work, film, or other narrative, the plot is the sequence of events in which each event affects the next one through the principle of cause-and-effect. The causal events of a plot can be thought of as a series of events linked by the connector "and so". Plots can vary from the simple—such as in a traditional ballad—to forming complex interwoven structures, with each part sometimes referred to as a subplot or imbroglio.
Plot is similar in meaning to the term storyline. In the narrative sense, the term highlights important points which have consequences within the story, according to American science fiction writer Ansen Dibell. The term plot can also serve as a verb, referring to either the writer's crafting of a plot (devising and ordering story events), or else to a character's planning of future actions in the story.

Read the excerpt from Part 1 of The Odyssey by Homer.
They fell in, soon enough, with Lotus-Eaters,
who showed no will to do us harm, only
offering the sweet Lotus to our friends—
but those who ate this honeyed plant, the Lotus,
never cared to report, nor to return:
they longed to stay forever, browsing on
that native bloom, forgetful of their homeland.
I drove them, all three wailing, to the ships,
tied them down under their rowing benches,
and called the rest: All hands aboard;
come, clear the beach and no one taste
the Lotus, or you lose your hope of home.
Which line from the excerpt supports the conclusion that Odysseus cares for his men?
They fell in, soon enough, with Lotus-Eaters,
offering the sweet Lotus to our friends—
they longed to stay forever, browsing on
I drove them, all three wailing, to the ships,
Answer:
I drove them, all three wailing, to the ships.
Explanation:
While his crew no longer desires to come back to Ithaca with him (as a result of consuming the Lotus from the Lotus-Eaters), Odysseus shows that he cares about them by physically forcing them back to the ship. He could have just left them there, but instead, he shows loyalty and concern for his men by drawing them and freeing them from the Lotus-Eaters.
The line from the excerpt that supports the conclusion that Odysseus cares for his men is "I drove them, all three wailing, to the ships." This line shows that Odysseus takes action to protect his men from the effects of the Lotus plant, even though they may have wanted to stay and indulge in it.
What was Odysseus action for caring his men ?Odysseus took action to care for his men by preventing them from eating the Lotus plant. The Lotus plant had a narcotic effect on those who consumed it, causing them to forget their homes and families and to lose their desire to return.
When they encountered the Lotus-Eaters who offered the sweet Lotus plant to his men, Odysseus drove them back to the ship, tied them down under their rowing benches, and warned the rest of the crew not to taste the plant.
By physically forcing them back to the ships and tying them down to prevent them from tasting the Lotus, Odysseus demonstrates his concern for their well-being and his determination to keep them on course towards their homeland.

What do the two animals depicted in Blake’s poems “The Lamb” and “The Tyger” symbolize? Explain how these depict the contradictions in nature with examples from the poems to support your analysis. Thanks :)
Answer:
The tiger: theme
The Existence of Evil: the tiger poses a problem: everything about it seems to embody fear, danger, and terror. In a series of questions, the speaker of “The Tyger” wonders whether this creature was really created by the same God who made the world’s gentle and joyful creatures. And if the tiger was created by God, why did God choose to create such a fearsome animal? Through the example of the tiger, the poem examines the existence of evil in the world, asking the same question in many ways: if God created everything and is all-powerful, why does evil exist?
The lamb: "The Lamb," is able to identify God as the creator of the lamb because the small creature seems to represent joy, love, and freedom—but the tiger is an entirely different figure altogether. The poem does imply that God created the tiger too, but in the tiger's threat of violence and capacity for killing, it's harder for human beings to understand God's motivations for creating it. Essentially, the main aim of the poem is to flesh out this mystery, and to hint at possible answers.

Fortunately, the French had made a number of copies of the inscriptions on the Rosetta Stone. They did this by covering the surface of the Stone with printer's ink, laying a sheet of paper on it, and rolling rubber rollers over it until good, clear impressions were obtained. Based on the word choice in this excerpt, how does Giblin feel about the French attempt to understand the writings on the Rosetta Stone? that it was a waste of time that it was worthwhile that it was impossible that it was amazing
Answer:
Based on word choice, Giblin feels:
B. that it was worthwhile.
Explanation:
We can easily eliminate options A and C, since there is nothing conveying a negative connotation in the excerpt. We are left with options B and D.
Let's take a look at option D first. It says Giblin thinks the process of obtaining copies of the stone was amazing. However, that is not what the word choice conveys. Had there been words such as "fantastic" or "incredible" in the excerpt, this option would have made sense. But that is not the case.
Option B is the only correct one. The excerpt uses words such as "fortunately", "good", and "clear". Those words convey the idea that the process the French used was worthwhile. It not only worked, but worked well, effectively.
Answer:
B: That it was worthwhile.

In "The Open Window," Vera tells a frightening story to unsettle the family's vulnerable guest. Why does she do this? Do you think it was wrong of her to deceive Mr. Nuttel? Why or why not? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.
Answer and Explanation:
1. Vera tells Mr. Nuttel the scary story, just for fun. She realized how much control she has over people when she lies and as a way to distract herself from her monotonous routine, she decided to lie compulsively and as discreetly as possible to see people's reactions and have fun at their expense.
2. It was wrong to deceive Mr. Nuttel, primarily because we should not use people for our entertainment, moreover, Mr. Nuttel did not have a nervous disorder that was aggravated by Vera's behavior and this type of disturbance is very agonizing and harmful to someone.

Describe a time in your life when you picked out the perfect gift for someone or someone picked the perfect gift for you. why was it perfect?
describe a time when a gift didn’t work out. what could have made the situation different? how was the situation handled?
describe an ironic incident in your own life. what was expected to happen and why was the event ironic?
Answer:
Explanation: I got my friend a friendship braclet in about 5th grade. It was pretty pink and purple fishtail braided and we both wore one. The next day, she decided she was done being friends with me and gave it to someone one else. This situation is ironic because a friendship braclet is supposed to create bond in a relationship, instead it broke us apart.
A few years ago I got the perfect gift. It wasn't anything expensive, it was just very meaningful. Out of privacy, I won't be saying the person's name or what their relationship is towards me, however, they are someone very special to me. They had written basically a whole essay on me, my characteristics, physical features, they noted the things I do in certain situations. They also wrote out the things they liked about me and they included a bunch of compliments. It was kinda like a character analysis if you will. When they gave the gift to me I was in a bit of drama and I felt very unloved and hatred against me, so the fact that they recognized I was down and they took the time to cheer me up. To this day that gift is very special to me.

(this is a 7th L.A. easy)
Answer:
This should be relatively simple to explain but if you have questions, feel free to ask
Explanation:
Paragraph 1 - Introduce the text of choice. State its relationship to the Rosetta stone. and then make a simple thesis combining these 2 topics and add 2 ways that the text tells you the sequence of events that lead to the discovery of the Rosetta stone.
Paragraph 2 - Take your thesis statement and break it in half stating the book, it's relationship to the Rosetta stone, and 1 way that the text explains the sequence of events leading up to the discovery of Rosetta stone. Quote the text and add the page number and chapter. Lastly just restate the first sentence of the paragraph backwards in a way. "Because the book *insert text name* gives the information on *insert way 1* it helps us understand how it impacted the discovery of the Rosetta stone."
Paragraph 3 - (the same as paragraph 2 but with the 2nd way)
Conclusion - "As shown above, the text *insert text name* has a lot of detailed information about the sequence of events that impacted the discovery of the Rosetta stone. This information consists of *Give both ways that the text tells you what happened*. Overall, the text *insert text name* provides detailed information on the sequence of events that were crucial to the discovery of the Rosetta stone."
