Flight 1 When Robert was a little boy, he wanted nothing more than to see a hawk flying across the sky. Or to see an eagle, an osprey, or a falcon! Robert loved to think about large birds with great yellow talons, soaring across the sky and seeing every corner of the earth that people could not see. 2 But Robert lived in the city, where such birds were never seen. He used to fall asleep at night imagining a hawk’s wings forming arcs across a great big blue sky, which he pictured as a wide, open field where no legged animals could run but only winged animals could soar. As he drifted into dreams, the birds in his imagination morphed into dragons and pterodactyls and all manner of ancient or other- worldly flying creatures. Robert would wake in the morning smiling at the thought of this big blue field in his dreams. But he spent each day on the subway and walking along crowded sidewalks and looking up between tall buildings where he could catch only a sliver of blue. 3 As he got older, Robert tried to forget about his dreams and focus all his attention on his studies. At school, he took the hardest classes he could and was in advanced placement math and science before long. He decided that if he could not see hawks and eagles and falcons in their natural habitat, he would learn everything he could about how those animals worked. He loved to think about how lessons from birds had led to the first experiments in human flight and the development of airplanes. 4 Robert devoured books about the inventors of the airplanes and the physics that made air travel successful. His devotion to this topic confused his parents, who saw in him a smart and eager child who could study medicine or the law and have a good career. 5 “Stop daydreaming about birds!” they would say to him. 6 But Robert continued to spend as much time as he could learning about what made flying possible. 7 Sometimes, even as he was older - a college student now, living in a cramped dorm-room with three other boys his age - Robert would drift off to sleep imagining that big open sky filled with hawks and osprey and dragons. He knew it was silly, but he held on to that image. It filled him with hope for something he couldn’t quite name. He would ask himself what he was hoping for. 8 “Do I want to see a hawk or an eagle or a falcon, or do I hope to someday fly like one of them myself?” Robert would say, to no one other than himself. 9 The college Robert attended was also in the city, and he hadn’t found a way to travel outside of it yet. He still could only dream about that big blue field above. 10 One day, just before graduation, Robert got a phone call from someone he didn’t know. When he answered, the voice on the other end made an unusual announcement. 11 “I’m looking for someone to test fly a new airplane I’m developing,” the voice said. “Professor Jackson gave me your name. He said he had never had another student as devoted to the art of flying as Robert Smith. Would you be interested in coming in to learn more about my new plane?” 12 Robert jotted down the address and date of the interview, and hung up the phone smiling. He couldn’t help but close his eyes and picture the big blue field, filled with all manner of flying creatures. Maybe soon he would be among them. 1.

We, the undersigned scientists, have been working in the field of atomic power. Until recently, we have had to fear that the United States might be attacked by atomic bombs during this war and that her only defense might lie in a counterattack by the same means. Today, with the defeat of Germany, this danger is averted and we feel impelled to say what follows:
The war has to be brought speedily to a successful conclusion, and attacks by atomic bombs may very well be an effective method of warfare. We feel, however, that such attacks on Japan could not be justified, at least not unless the terms which will be imposed after the war on Japan were made public in detail and Japan were given an opportunity to surrender.
If such public announcement gave assurance to the Japanese that they could look forward to a life devoted to peaceful pursuits in their homeland and if Japan still refused to surrender our nation might then, in certain circumstances, find itself forced to resort to the use of atomic bombs. Such a step, however, ought not to be made at any time without seriously considering the moral responsibilities which are involved.
The development of atomic power will provide the nations with new means of destruction. The atomic bombs at our disposal represent only the first step in this direction, and there is almost no limit to the destructive power which will become available in the course of their future development. Thus a nation which sets the precedent of using these newly liberated forces of nature for purposes of destruction may have to bear the responsibility of opening the door to an era of devastation on an unimaginable scale.
If after this war a situation is allowed to develop in the world which permits rival powers to be in uncontrolled possession of these new means of destruction, the cities of the United States as well as the cities of other nations will be in continuous danger of sudden annihilation. All the resources of the United States, moral and material, may have to be mobilized to prevent the advent of such a world situation. Its prevention is at present the solemn responsibility of the United States—singled out by virtue of her lead in the field of atomic power. . . .
In view of the foregoing, we, the undersigned, respectfully petition: first, that you exercise your power as Commander-in-Chief, to rule that the United States shall not resort to the use of atomic bombs in this war unless the terms which will be imposed upon Japan have been made public in detail and Japan knowing these terms has refused to surrender; second, that in such an event the question whether or not to use atomic bombs be decided by you in light of the considerations presented in this petition as well as all the other moral responsibilities which are involved.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1. How would you sum up the scientists’ purpose in petitioning the president?
2. How would you describe the tone of the petition?
3. Under what circumstances do the writers say that use of the atomic bomb against Japan might be justified?
4. What “solemn responsibility” does the U.S. bear, according to the scientists? Why?
5. What does the petition add to your understanding of the Atomic Age and the present nuclear threat, as outlined in the Upfront article?
Answer:
1. The scientists purpose in petitioning the president was informal if this is and english term of purpose. If this is for the whole as a purpose than it is to forwarn him not to make brash decisions.
2. The tone is somber and serious.
3. Under full warning and after the choice has been scruninized with attention to moral detail.
4. To prevent people going mad with the power of atomic bombs in the case that they may become available elsewhere.
5. The United States scientists thought further ahead then I ever knew they did in this patent. The Atomic Age was a solemn event and precautions were taken to attempt a more peaceful means.

Explanation:
What is the theme?
I was climbing up a mountain-path
With many things to do,
Important business of my own,
And other people's too,
[5]
When I ran against a Prejudice
That quite cut off the view.
My work was such as could not wait,
My path quite clearly showed,
My strength and time were limited,
[10]
I carried quite a load;
And there that hulking Prejudice
Sat all across the road.
So I spoke to him politely,
For he was huge and high,
[15]
And begged that he would move a bit
And let me travel by.
He smiled, but as for moving! —
He didn't even try.
And then I reasoned quietly
[20]
With that colossal mule:
My time was short — no other path —
The mountain winds were cool.
I argued like a Solomon;
He sat there like a fool.
[25]
Then I flew into a passion,
and I danced and howled and swore.
I pelted and belabored him
Till I was stiff and sore;
He got as mad as I did —
[30]
But he sat there as before.
And then I begged him on my knees;
I might be kneeling still
If so I hoped to move that mass
Of obdurate ill-will —
[35]
As well invite the monument
To vacate Bunker Hill!
So I sat before him helpless,
In an ecstasy of woe —
The mountain mists were rising fast,
[40]
The sun was sinking slow —
When a sudden inspiration came,
As sudden winds do blow.
I took my hat, I took my stick,
My load I settled fair,
[45]
I approached that awful incubus
With an absent-minded air —
And I walked directly through him,
As if he wasn't there!

what method can you convevie to get something out of a crevice?
Answer:The method that one can conceive to get something out of a crevice is by using a bug stick and by getting tweezers to get something small out. The definition of a crevice is a long, tight space often found on the face of a mountain or other geological formation. These crevices can either be large or small but since these locations are hard to reach, these places are really great places for hiding. These are where you can see reptiles, bugs, and even lost climbers. Oftentimes, the word crevice is a natural formation but at the same time this is used to describe any long, narrow space that’s hard to access.

Read "The Tortoise and the Hare." What do the characters remember about the story? In a paragraph of at least three sentences, choose either the Tortoise or the Hare and write a flashback that tells a portion of the story from that character's point of view.
A Hare was one day making fun of a Tortoise for being so slow upon his feet. "Wait a bit," said the Tortoise; "I'll run a race with you, and I'll wager that I win." "Oh, well," replied the Hare, who was much amused at the idea, "let's try and see"; and it was soon agreed that the fox should set a course for them, and be the judge. When the time came both started off together, but the Hare was soon so far ahead that he thought he might as well have a rest: so down he lay and fell fast asleep. Meanwhile the Tortoise kept plodding on, and in time reached the goal. At last the Hare woke up with a start, and dashed on at his fastest, but only to find that the Tortoise had already won the race.
this the right answer (
Answer:

Which of the following selections best explains the order in which the excerpt is structured?
Answer choices for the above question
A. The Founders were unsure of their ability to bring about change.
B. Following a brief introduction, there is a thesis, supporting evidence, and a call to action.
C. The entire text compares the situation in the States with the situation in Great Britain.
D. The text defines a problem, then offers a summary of the problem.
Answer:B
Explanation:It’s correct
The best selection that explains the order of structuring the excerpt is B. Following a brief introduction, there is a thesis, supporting evidence, and a call to action.
An excerpt represents a short extract from a story, film, or write-up. It usually follows the normal structure of every write-up, which starts with a brief introduction of the topic.
The introduction is then followed by the statement of the author's claim, position, or thesis. The thesis requires supporting evidence to strengthen and authenticate the writer's claim. Then, the final touch is encapsulated in the conclusion and recommendations, which capture the call to action.
Thus, Option B is the best explanation of the order of the structure of the excerpt.

Do you think that the end of Lord of the Flies is fitting? Explain why or why not.
ANSWER IN COMPLETE SENTENCES AND THEN I WILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIEST!
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Yes, because the boys are very young and acting largely on instinct. They are too young still for the civilized culture they are from to influence their actions, and after being away from societal pressure for so long they begin to revert back to an almost animal state. The survival of the fittest, the fight for dominance, and the spliting into "packs" of sorts is very animalistic. Had the boys been older, a more peaceful resolution may have been expected. However, since the boys are young, just starting to experience an influx of testosterone paired with no pressure to behave a certain way created a plausible perfect storm for the boys to rise against one another and eventually go to extremes, such as murder, which they would never act upon were they still among society.
Is there a tension between personal identity and social acceptance in real life? How successful was the author of The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian in convincing you that holding onto your inner identity can lead to wider social acceptance?
Answer:I think there is some truth to the author’s handling of this theme. If you abandon your identity to seek social acceptance, you eventually end up standing for nothing. And if you stand for nothing, you’re basically no one. It does, however, seem convenient that Junior is able to win almost everyone over. In real life, I think the results would be mixed. He would likely develop some close friendships, but many people would probably still fail to accept him as he is.
