when a monster in a story does not have the ability to communicate, what is the most likely result?
A. Other character will fear it because they cannot understand what it wants.
B. The monster will harm everyone that it sees.
C. Other characters will ignore it, and the story will end.
D. The monster will surrender and let other characters restrain it.
Answer:
The correct answer is option A. Other character will fear it because they cannot understand what it wants.
Explanation:
If a monster cannot communicate, the mere fact of being a monster would make people afraid of it.
There are many stories where we can see "friendly monsters" but if you think about it, it is because those monsters can talk or exchange their feelings with the human in some way.
If a monster appears, and it has no way of telling you what it wants, your instinct will be to be scared and run away from it.
Given this information we can say that the correct answer is option A.
Read the following excerpt from “The Gift of the Magi” and answer the question. For there lay The Combs--the set of combs, side and back, that Della had worshipped long in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs, pure tortoise shell, with jewelled rims--just the shade to wear in the beautiful vanished hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had simply craved and yearned over them without the least hope of possession. And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have adorned the coveted adornments were gone. But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim! And them Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, "Oh, oh!" Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit."Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it." Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled."Della," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on." The magi, as you know, were wise men--wonderfully wise men--who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas presents. Being wise, their gifts were no doubt wise ones, possibly bearing the privilege of exchange in case of duplication. And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. O all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi. Which words in the passage above does the author use to suggest the theme of the story? “give” and “receive” “manger” and “flat” “sacrificed” and “giving" “lamely” and “uneventful”
The correct answer is A. “give” and “receive”
Explanation:
The theme is conveyed through elements such as the actions of the characters, and their values. In the case of "The Gift of the Magi," the underlying idea (theme) is the importance of giving because those who give always receive something back; this is illustrated through the actions of Della and Jim, who give their best possession to buy a gift for the other, and in exchange, receive an equally important gift, although those are useless.
Indeed, Della sells her hair to buy Jim a chain for his clock, while Jim sells his clock to buy Della some expensive combs; this shows the importance of love and the relationship between giving and receiving. Additionally, this theme of give and receive is stated by the narrator in "that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. O all who give and receive gifts".
In the short story "Raymond's Run," the main character, Squeaky, demonstrates a variety of character traits. Choose three traits from the list below that you feel define Squeaky as a character. Use evidence from the story to support your claims. Your response should be about 150 words in length.
Answer:
I couldn't find the options to your question online, but I can help you with the description of this character so you can answer it yourself.
Explanation:
Squeaky's character is persistent, bold, intelligent, true, and at the same time defensive.
Squeaky has never lost a career in his entire life, despite being a small person. She is challenged by Gretchen who also enters the competition and could beat her. However, she talks so much about her ability and says so many times that no one could beat her, that it could be interpreted as deep down she is afraid of losing.
At the same time she is in charge of taking care of her brother Raymond, who is older than her, but she says that he is "her younger brother".
Squeaky is very fast and protective, and her determination allows her to win the race and she ends up befriending her rival, Gretchen.
Here are the traits to choose from, these are all from one I found

What is the value of x?
The correct answer is A. 36°
Explanation.
All triangles have three internal angles. Additionally, in these, if you add the three internal angles the total is always 180°. This implies the first angle which is 79° added to the second angle, which is 65° and the third angle (value of x) should be equal to 180°. This can be solved by subtracting the two angles known from the total 180°.
x + 79° + 65° = 180
x = 180 -79°- 65°
x = 36°
Also, you can know this result is accurate because 36° + 79° + 65° = 180°

Which of the following sentences correctly uses a semicolon?
I was not afraid of the dark; but I didn't like being out in the dark, either.
I had gone for a long run during the day, my legs; however, were not tired.
No one showed up for the after school program still; we had a good time.
The park was closed; therefore, we decided to play soccer in my backyard instead.
Answer:
The correct answer is - The park was closed; therefore, we decided to play soccer in my backyard instead.
Explanation:
Let’s go through the process of elimination to get to the correct option.
A) Is not correct because the conjunction BUT requires a comma, not a semicolon.
B) Is not correct because the semicolon here doesn’t make sense because of the order of words in the sentence. If the sentence said: I had gone for a long run during the day; however, my legs were not tired - then the semicolon would be correct.
C) Is not correct because the semicolon should come before the word STILL, not after it.
D) Is the correct answer as the semicolon is properly used to separate two independent sentences.
Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon."
After a while, I knew that my belly was hungry. I could have
hunted for my meat, but I did not hunt. It is known that the
gods did not hunt as we do-they got their food from
enchanted boxes and jars. Sometimes these are still found
in the Dead Places-once, when I was a child and foolish, I
opened such a jar and tasted it and found the bod sweet.
But my father found out and punished me for it strictly, for,
often, that food is death. Now, though, I had long gone past
what was forbidden, and I entered the likeliest towers,
looking for the food of the gods.
I found it at last in the ruins of a great temple in the mid-city.
A mighty temple it must have been, for the roof was painted
like the sky at night with its stars-that much I could see,
though the colors were faint and dim. It went down into great
caves and tunnels-perhaps they kept their slaves there.
But when I started to climb down, I heard the squeaking of
How does the resolution in this passage help develop the
theme about rules?
When the narrator decides not to hunt, he recognizes that
the rules of the gods were better than the rules of his
people.
When the narrator enters the temple, he recognizes that
he no longer fears the gods, regardless of what the rules
of his people say.
When the narrator avoids the rats, he realizes that he is
going against the teachings of his people, but also doing
what is necessary for his survival.
When the narrator decides to ignore his father's words
and eat the food of the gods, he realizes that he is learning
to make his own choices.
Answer:
D. When the narrator decides to ignore his father’s words and eat the food of the gods, he realizes that he is learning to make his own choices.
Explanation:
The narrator decides to eat the food of the gods because he is hungry, which an example of one making his own choices.
C is wrong because the passage says nothing about rats relating to the teachings of his people. He's avoiding them simply because "rats are unclean," he stated.
B is wrong because even though the passage implied that the narrator's peoples' teachings portray the gods as scary, it did not state that the narrator feared the gods.
A is wrong because the passage doesn't talk about any rules from any gods.

Before tryouts began, the boys seemed puzzled. Where, they wondered, was the coach? Luma was right in front of them, but a woman soccer coach was a strange sight to young Africans, and to young Muslim boys from Afghanistan and Iraq.
–Outcasts United,
Warren St. John
Whose thoughts and feelings are revealed in the first two sentences?
What conclusion can be drawn based on the thoughts and feelings that are revealed?
Answer:
The young boys' thoughts and feelings are revealed in the first two sentences.
We can conclude that through their reaction to seeing the woman coach, their society discriminates against the women and make them inferior to the men.
Explanation:
Outcasts United by Warren St. John tells the story of how a soccer team emerged from the refugees in the Georgian town of Clarkson despite their own misfortunes and even enmity among themselves. The effort of the coach Luma, who was also a female, and the common perception of not only the Americans but even the refugee families she's helping all acts as obstacles for the success.
From the given excerpt, the first two sentences reveal the thoughts and feelings of the young soccer enthusiasts who all came from different backgrounds and nationalities.
These thoughts on realizing that their coach is a female is rather shocking for them. Coming from backgrounds and nations (especially Muslim countries) that seems to be prejudiced against the female sex, the young boys find it hard to accept and believe that they will be taught soccer or even play under a women coach. This shows that society prioritizes men over women, thus making them inferior to the men.

the boys'
They have never seen a woman coach before

Read this passage from Napoleon’s diary about religion. Based on this passage, which statement best sums up how Napoleon viewed religion in the French empire? Catholicism should be the official religion of France. All people should have the right to choose how to worship. The people of France must choose whether they want to be Catholic, Muslim, or Jewish. People in France are assured of going to Paradise.
It was by becoming a Catholic that I pacified the Vendée [region in western France], and a [Muslim] that I established myself in Egypt; it was by becoming ultramontane that I won over public opinion in Italy. If I ruled a people of Jews, I would rebuild the temple of Solomon! Paradise is a central spot whither the souls of men proceed along different roads; every sect has a road of its own. Read this passage from Napoleon’s diary about religion. Based on this passage, which statement best sums up how Napoleon viewed religion in the French empire? Catholicism should be the official religion of France. All people should have the right to choose how to worship. The people of France must choose whether they want to be Catholic, Muslim, or Jewish. People in France are assured of going to Paradise.
Answer:
The statement that best sums up how Napoleon viewed religion in the French empire was that All people should have the right to choose how to worship.
Explanation:
From the passage above, Napoleon understands the importance of freedom of religion and the uniqueness of different religious beliefs because he knew that he would have to try and please different people based on the religious belief he chose.
If he was a Catholic, he would have to pacify the Vendee and if he was to become a Muslim, he would have a strong base in Egypt, etc so because of this knowledge he believed that everyone had the right to choose how to worship.
