Read the excerpt from "Bone Detective." Diane stood in front of a mirror and stuck out her tongue. It looked like a rosy pink welcome mat to her delicate insides. Her usual rubber mold formula was out of the question—too toxic. She wondered, What is safe to swallow, fast and easy to apply, and hardens quickly into a firm mold? One of her horse-riding pals, a veterinarian named Mary Wright, had the answer: alginate. Mary told Diane that alginate was a pink gummy material used to make molds of teeth. If it was safe for pets, it should be safe for a tiger. And people, too, Diane thought. At her lab she mixed the alginate powder with water to form a paste. Standing in front of a mirror, she scooped up a blob and spread it on her tongue. She pressed it down with her fingers to get out any air bubbles. Not bad, she thought. Tastes just like spearmint. She decided to make an extra-thick mold to make it easier to peel off. So, she added another gloopy blog—and another. With her thickened tongue hanging out, Diane padded around the lab doing odds and ends while the material set. After about 10 minutes, she peeled off the alginate slowly and carefully. It was fragile—bendable and easy to tear—but it made an excellent impression of her tongue. Which action in the excerpt illustrates that Diane is dedicated to her work? A.She makes a mold of her own tongue. B.She performs odd jobs around the lab. C.She stands in front of the mirror. D.She goes horseback riding with a friend.

how is part iv different from the other parts of the story what is its purpose "the nose"?
Answer:
Part IV shows the narrator's considerations about the story, while the other parts present the story itself.
Explanation:
"The nose" is a short story written by Nicholau Gogol that portrays the fantasy story of a nose that came out of its owner's face and took on a life of its own and decides to live independently. The short story is a satire and is divided into several parts.
Part IV proves to be the most different of all, since it counts on the narrator's considerations, the most "nosense" points of the narrative, while the other parts are summarized to tell the facts that compose the story itself.

The evidence of enslaved people’s revolt and fight for freedom is
Answer:
A. anecdotal, because it tells a narrative about enslaved people taking action for basic human rights.
Explanation:
Passage:
The seeds for this system were sown in 1823 in the sugar colony of British Guiana—now Guyana—where John Gladstone, father of the future British prime minister William Gladstone, owned over a thousand slaves. John Smith, a young and idealistic English preacher who had recently come to the area, was becoming popular with those slaves. His inspiring sermons retold the story of Moses leading the Jews out of Egypt and to freedom. The sugar workers listened and understood: Smith was speaking not about the Bible, but about the present. That summer, after hearing one of Smith’s sermons, over three thousand slaves grabbed their machetes, their long poles, and rose up against their masters. The governor of the colony rushed toward the burning plantations, where he met a group of armed slaves, and asked them what they wanted.
"Our rights," came the reply. Here was Haiti—and for that matter America and France—all over again. The slaves insisted they were not property; like the Jews in Egypt, they were God's children, who were owed their basic human rights.
This is a narrative.

Memories of a Memory Have you ever witnessed something amazing, shocking or surprising and found when describing the event that your story seems to change the more you tell it? Have you ever experienced a time when you couldn't really describe something you saw in a way that others could understand? If so, you may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials. New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things. First, memory is vague. Imagine your room at home or a classroom you see every day. Most likely, you could describe the room very generally. You could name the color of the walls, the floors, the decorations. But the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. Memory tends to save a blurry image of what we have seen rather than specific details. So when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall when faced with several tall people. There are lots of different kinds of "tall." Second, memory uses general knowledge to fill in gaps. Our brains reconstruct events and scenes when we remember something. To do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. For example, one day at a library you go to quite frequently, you witness an argument between a library patron and one of the librarians. Later, when telling a friend about the event, your brain may remember a familiar librarian behind the desk rather than the actual participant simply because it is recreating a familiar scene. In effect, your brain is combining memories to help you tell the story. Third, your memory changes over time. It also changes the more you retell the story. Documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. Research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is. You may have noticed this yourself. The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add, or what your brain wants to add, to the account. You may also notice that you drop certain details from previous tellings of the story. With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. Did you really break your mother's favorite vase when you were three? Was that really your father throwing rocks into the river with you when you were seven? The human brain may be quite remarkable indeed. When it comes to memory, however, we may want to start carrying video cameras if we want to record the true picture.

Although A Tale of Two Cities is a work of fiction, most of the information about the Reign of Terror is true. Describe Hunger,hate, and corruption and how can they be in the reign of terror.
Answer:
Answers
Explanation:
Hunger: The French peasants and commoners were living on the brink of poverty, and as a result were famished because of the lack of money. The aristocrats were biting off more than they could chew (literally and figuratively).
Hate: There was a very strong smell of hate in the entire period. The commoners abhorred the aristocrats, and were bent to seek their revenge. The aristocrats hated the commoners because they were as petty as mud them to them.
Corruption: The aristocrats were using the money of the people (tax), to continue indulging in their flamboyant lifestyles. Money was laundered from Paris to London and back.
I MET a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage [face] lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which still survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. Which word supports the meaning of boundless? A; Wreck B;Lone C;Level D;Far
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Boundless means far because the quote that has boundless is "Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away."
You can see the there is a 'far' literally inside the quote.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Because boundeless means without Bounds, so "having no limit" so far could be considered boundless.
