Read the adapted excerpt from Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift.
"But I should have mentioned that before the principal person began his oration, he cried out three times, Langro debul san (these words,
and the former, were afterwards repeated, and explained to me). Whereupon Immediately about fifty of the inhabitants came and cut the
strings that fastened the left side of my head, which gave me the liberty of turning it to the right, and of observing the person and gesture of
him that was to speak. He appeared to be of a middle age, and taller than any of the other three who attended him, whereof one was a
page that held up his train, and seemed to be somewhat longer than my middle finger, the other two stood one on each side, to support
him. He acted every part of an orator, and I could observe many periods of threatenings, and others of promises, pity, and kindness."
Which choice provides the best objective summary of the excerpt?

and now an orator is both threatening him and showing pity.
D. The narrator is tied down and cannot move until a leader orders his ties be cut. This leader, whom the narrator cannot understand, seems to show a variety of different moods.

Dissect and analyze the allegory of the man overboard from: "A man overboard!
What matters it? The vessel does not halt. The wind blows. That sombre ship has a path which it is
forced to pursue. It passes on.
The man disappears, then reappears; he plunges, he rises again to the surface; he calls, he stretches
out his arms; he is not heard. The vessel, trembling under the hurricane, is wholly absorbed in its own
workings; the passengers and sailors do not even see the drowning man; his miserable head is but a speck
amid the immensity of the waves. He gives vent to desperate cries from out of the depths. What a spectre
is that retreating sail! He gazes and gazes at it frantically. It retreats, it grows dim, it diminishes in size. He
was there but just now, he was one of the crew, he went and came along the deck with the rest, he had his
part of breath and of sunlight, he was a living man. Now, what has taken place? He has slipped, he has
fallen; all is at an end.
He is in the tremendous sea. Under foot he has nothing but what flees and crumbles. The billows, torn
and lashed by the wind, encompass him hideously; the tossings of the abyss bear him away; all the
tongues of water dash over his head; a populace of waves spits upon him; confused openings half devour
him; every time that he sinks, he catches glimpses of precipices filled with night; frightful and unknown
vegetations seize him, knot about his feet, draw him to them; he is conscious that he is becoming an abyss,
that he forms part of the foam; the waves toss him from one to another; he drinks in the bitterness; the
cowardly ocean attacks him furiously, to drown him; the enormity plays with his agony. It seems as
though all that water were hate.
Nevertheless, he struggles.
He tries to defend himself; he tries to sustain himself; he makes an effort; he swims. He, his petty
strength all exhausted instantly, combats the inexhaustible.
Where, then, is the ship? Yonder. Barely visible in the pale shadows of the horizon.
The wind blows in gusts; all the foam overwhelms him. He raises his eyes and beholds only the
lividness of the clouds. He witnesses, amid his death-pangs, the immense madness of the sea. He is
tortured by this madness; he hears noises strange to man, which seem to come from beyond the limits of
the earth, and from one knows not what frightful region beyond.
LES MISÉRABLES 114
There are birds in the clouds, just as there are angels above human distresses; but what can they do
for him? They sing and fly and float, and he, he rattles in the death agony.
He feels himself buried in those two infinities, the ocean and the sky, at one and the same time: the
one is a tomb; the other is a shroud.
Night descends; he has been swimming for hours; his strength is exhausted; that ship, that distant
thing in which there were men, has vanished; he is alone in the formidable twilight gulf; he sinks, he
stiffens himself, he twists himself; he feels under him the monstrous billows of the invisible; he shouts.
There are no more men. Where is God?
He shouts. Help! Help! He still shouts on.
Nothing on the horizon; nothing in heaven.
He implores the expanse, the waves, the seaweed, the reef; they are deaf. He beseeches the tempest;
the imperturbable tempest obeys only the infinite.
Around him darkness, fog, solitude, the stormy and nonsentient tumult, the undefined curling of
those wild waters. In him horror and fatigue. Beneath him the depths. Not a point of support. He thinks of
the gloomy adventures of the corpse in the limitless shadow. The bottomless cold paralyzes him. His
hands contract convulsively; they close, and grasp nothingness. Winds, clouds, whirlwinds, gusts, useless
stars! What is to be done? The desperate man gives up; he is weary, he chooses the alternative of death; he
resists not; he lets himself go; he abandons his grip; and then he tosses forevermore in the lugubrious
dreary depths of engulfment.
Oh, implacable march of human societies! Oh, losses of men and of souls on the way! Ocean into
which falls all that the law lets slip! Disastrous absence of help! Oh, moral death!
The sea is the inexorable social night into which the penal laws fling their condemned. The sea is the
immensity of wretchedness.
The soul, going down stream in this gulf, may become a corpse. Who shall resuscitate it?"

At the police station, after Starr details the events leading up to the shooting, the detective shifts her focus to Khalil's possible drug and gang activity. Why do you think he did this? Discuss Starr's reaction to the "bait."
Answer and Explanation:
1. The policeman tries to change the focus of the crime that happened. He looks for a way to get Star to display information that allows him to modify what really happened about Khalil's death and put him as the culprit in the story, with Khalil being killed by a racist police officer who used the abuse of authority to do this. .
2. Star doesn't fall for the bait and even though she knows that Khalil was involved in the drug trade, she knows that his murder had nothing to do with it and that he was murdered unfairly, due to the abuse of power and violence police against blacks.

which is NOT an important function of context in a news story?!?
To help readers understand the topics significance
To make readers understand the topic
To change readers’ minds about an issue
To provide a clear, vivid picture of events
Answer:
b
Explanation:
To change readers’ minds about an issue is not an important function of context in a news story. The appropriate response is option C.
What is context in a news story?When a writer provides context, such as the history that led to the event, comparison to similar incidents, connection between these players and the outside parties, and responsible predictions of what will happen next.
a set of facts about some event that happened today takes on much more meaning—and accuracy even—than when the writer simply presents the facts.
The intended message is made clear and meaningful by context. Contextual hints in a literary work foster a connection between the author and reader and provide a deeper understanding of the writing's purpose and direction.

Eleanor Roosevelt said that Anne Frank's story made her "intimately and shockingly aware of war's greatest evil—the degradation of the human spirit. At the same time, Anne's diary makes clear the ultimate shining nobility of that spirit." In two paragraphs (three to five sentences per paragraph), explain how Anne Frank's story shows the misery and indignity that war causes, but also the goodness of the human spirit.
Answer:
Anne Frank is a story that shows how cruel a person can truly be. It shows the evil that was preformed by the Hitler was towards Jewish people, even a little girl like Anne was taught she was less than Germans because of her heritage. She knew and had to live with how awful other Jewish people, even people she knew, were treated. How they were killed and abused, though that may be an understatement. Though her story shows the of cruelty, it also shows how good and generous a person can be. Miep Gies put her own safety on the line to help protect not only the Frank family, but also the Van Pel family and Fritz Pfeffer. She kept them safe as best as she could for as long as she could. Even in a time where most people would turn their backs on people in need and only think about themselves. Not only that, but Anne and her famil remained good and loving people which seems almost impossible given the circumstances they were living in. On two very different sides of the spectrum, a person can be truly evil and vile. On the other end, a person can be good and loving and generous.

Mayella Ewell lies on the witness stand out of fear for her father Bob Ewell and embarrassment over her attraction to Tom Robinson. She claims to the jury that Tom beat and assaulted her, but her father actually beat her after he caught her cuddling and kissing an African American.
What is an attraction?The term "attraction" refers to an emotional, romantic, physical, or aesthetic interest, desire, or affinity. A lot of individuals think that attraction is only romantic. But many emotions—including being interested in someone, praising their attractiveness, and having sexual feelings—qualify as an attraction.
The majority of people are primarily impacted by someone's physical appearance before becoming more or less attracted to someone over time depending on other criteria, such as likeness, personality, and reciprocal interest.
She was aware of the horrendous treatment that other Jews, including individuals she knew, received and had to live with it. Though it might be an understatement, how they were murdered and mistreated. Her tale demonstrates harshness, but it also demonstrates the goodness and generosity of others.

What can you conclude about Karen from this passage
Hinman argues that what is morally significant about this story is not just what the villagers did but what kind of people they were, what kind of character they had.
A) False
B) True
Answer:
This is TRUE.
Explanation:
Let's take a look at the passage where Hinman speaks of the villagers from Le Chambon:
When we look at the villagers of Le Chambon, we are not only struck by what they did but also by who they were. We are struck by what good people they were. Their goodness did not seem to stem from any Kantian test of universality or utilitarian calculus of consequences. It came from the heart— from who they were as persons.
The villagers he is speaking of were responsible for saving the lives of thousands of Jews when Nazism was terrorizing Europe. When the Nazi soldiers got hold of one man, the villagers surrounded the bus where he was sitting and gave him precious, rationed food. When he returned and tried to give them their gifts back, they wouldn't accept it. Their actions, according to Hinman, had no purpose or gain for themselves. They did what they did simply because they were good people, because they had goodness in their hearts.

The parents went out to get help, and so the children would not get bored, they left them with the radio on. It turned night time and the parents still did not return. Then suddenly they heard the disturbing news go on in the radio: A very dangerous killer had escaped from a prison near the forest. Hours passed and the childrenś parents did not come back. Suddenly, they began to hear something really loud. ¨Bang, Bang, Bang¨. They heard that which seemed to come from something hitting the top of the car. Then, the sound became louder and louder every time. ¨BANG, BANG, BANG¨. The terrified children could no longer resist. They opened the door and ran in a hurry. Only the eldest of the children dared to turn his head to see what caused the loud noise. He should have not done it though, there was a large and scary man on top of the car, who hit the top of the vehicle with something on his hands, they were the heads of his parents! The children began to run even faster and the large man began to run towards them. The children ran into the forest and so did the large man. After that day no one ever saw those children ever again, and who knows, they may appear mysteriously next to you.
