O A The phrase refers to the meatpacking industry's use of the
entire animal, even non-meat parts, thus contributing to the
central idea of American ingenuity.
OB The phrase refers to the meatpacking industry's use of animals,
even spoiled meat and non-meat parts, thus contributing to the
central idea of the industry's corrupt and unsanitary nature.
OC The phrase refers to the meatpacking industry's terrible
treatment of its livestock, thus contributing to the central idea
of the industry's corrupt and cruel animal-raising practices.
OD The phrase refers to the meatpacking industry's mistreatment
of its employees, taking advantage of them and leaving only
their voice, thus contributing to the central idea of the
employees exposing the horrors of the industry.
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
"The Jungle" is a novel written by Upton Sinclair. The novel elucidates on the horrific working conditions of the meat industry, that it created great public uproar bringing new federal safety laws in the nation.
The phrase "they use everything of the pig except the squeal" advances the central idea of the text by informing the audience about the environment of the meatpacking industry and that they use even spoiled meat and non-meat parts to make meat. This furthers the central idea that the industry is corrupt and holds unhygienic sanitary conditions.
Therefore, option B is correct.

Find an example of one of the following plot devices in the passage from the play: foreshadowing, dramatic irony, or subplot. Describe its use, and list the lines from the plot
Act I, Scene II
Capulet’s orchard.
(Enter Romeo)
ROMEO: He jests at scars that never felt a wound.
(Juliet appears above at a window.)
But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!
O, that she knew she were!
She speaks yet she says nothing: what of that?
Her eye discourses; I will answer it.
I am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks:
Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,
Having some business, do entreat her eyes
To twinkle in their spheres till they return.
What if her eyes were there, they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,
As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were not night.
See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!
O, that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!
JULIET: Ay me!
ROMEO: She speaks:
O, speak again, bright angel! for thou art
As glorious to this night, being o'er my head
As is a winged messenger of heaven
Unto the white-upturned wondering eyes
Of mortals that fall back to gaze on him
When he bestrides the lazy-pacing clouds
And sails upon the bosom of the air.
JULIET: O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
ROMEO: (Aside) Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
JULIET: 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.
ROMEO: I take thee at thy word:
Call me but love, and I'll be new baptized;
Henceforth I never will be Romeo
JULIET: What man art thou that thus bescreen'd in night
So stumblest on my counsel?
ROMEO: By a name
I know not how to tell thee who I am:
My name, dear saint, is hateful to myself,
Because it is an enemy to thee;
Had I it written, I would tear the word.
JULIET: My ears have not yet drunk a hundred words
Of that tongue's utterance, yet I know the sound:
Art thou not Romeo and a Montague?
ROMEO: Neither, fair saint, if either thee dislike.
JULIET: How camest thou hither, tell me, and wherefore?
The orchard walls are high and hard to climb,
And the place death, considering who thou art,
If any of my kinsmen find thee here.
ROMEO: With love's light wings did I o'er-perch these walls;
For stony limits cannot hold love out,
And what love can do that dares love attempt;
Therefore thy kinsmen are no let to me.
JULIET: If they do see thee, they will murder thee.
ROMEO: Alack, there lies more peril in thine eye
Than twenty of their swords: look thou but sweet,
And I am proof against their enmity.
JULIET: I would not for the world they saw thee here.
ROMEO: I have night's cloak to hide me from their sight;
And but thou love me, let them find me here:
My life were better ended by their hate,
Than death prorogued, wanting of thy love.
JULIET: By whose direction found'st thou out this place?
ROMEO: By love, who first did prompt me to inquire;
He lent me counsel and I lent him eyes.
I am no pilot; yet, wert thou as far
As that vast shore wash'd with the farthest sea,
I would adventure for such merchandise.
Answer:
Romeo stands in the shadows beneath Juliet's bedroom window. Juliet appears on the balcony and, thinking she's alone, reveals in a soliloquy her love for Romeo. She despairs over the feud between the two families and the problems the feud presents. Romeo listens, and when Juliet calls on him to "doff" his name, he steps from the darkness saying, "call me but love."
After the two exchange expressions of devotion, the Nurse calls Juliet from the balcony. Juliet leaves, but returns momentarily. They agree to marry. Juliet promises to send a messenger the next day so that Romeo can tell her what wedding arrangements he has made. The scene concludes as day breaks, and Romeo leaves to seek the advice of Friar Laurence.

Why does the narrator call himself “nervous” but not “mad” in paragraph 1? What does
this tell us about him? How does the author’s point of view impact the telling of the
story?
Answer:
This shows that the narrator is a shy person or an introvert and becomes nervous easily
The narrator calls himself nervous instead of mad because in the story he claims to have full control of his mind and that he’s not mad just that most of his senses got enhanced. for instance The narrator says “IT’S TRUE! YES, I HAVE BEEN ILL, very ill. But why do you say that I have lost my mind, why do you say that I am mad? Can you not see that I have full control of my mind?” This quote Highlights that the narrator wasn’t mad at all and even seems confused when being accused of being angry. Another key point would be when the narrator states “Is it not clear that I am not mad? Indeed, the illness only made my mind, my feelings, my sences stronger, more powerful.” This quote reveals that he may have not been angry but he could have felt a different way possibly nervous. Overall this tells us that the narrator might have been someone who kept to himself.
