Which sentence best contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt?

Answers

Answer:

The phrases- “A leap from the air” and “ordinarily these problems” are the key phrases here to understand how it contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt. ( read more below  )

Explanation:

The phrases- “A leap from the air” and “ordinarily these problems” are the key phrases here to understand how it contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt. The former presents a situation that is not possible. There’s no hold in air, and to leap from it is implying that they were performing the impossible at the top of each wave, which presented such problems “ordinarily.” The understated way in which these are mentioned intensifies the hopelessness of the situation. And the fact that the boat had been compared to a horse that had to “leap again” over a high fence facilitates the image that this statement paints.

Miranda sat in the high school computer lab typing like mad. It was 8:30 a.m., and her 1,000-word report on The Catcher in the Rye was due at 9:00. For the past hour, she had been flipping through the ratty pages of the old paperback trying to discern the major plot points and then typing out a few sentences that she hoped were logical. The only reason she was able to get into the lab that early was because she was one of Mrs. Brody’s assistants, but a couple of hours in the lab didn’t make up for weeks of zoning out in English class.

Miranda could kick herself, but she was too busy skimming through her notes and attempting to remember something—anything!—that Mr. Giuffreda had talked about. Mr. Giuffreda was a tough grader, and Miranda did not work well under pressure—not a great combination. On top of all that, Miranda could hear her mother’s voice in her head: “One more bad grade in English, young lady, and no more soccer team.” Miranda failed to see the relationship between soccer and book reports, but she also knew her mother wasn’t kidding. When she had slacked off in geometry last semester, her mother had taken away her cell phone for a month. Another time, when Miranda had missed her curfew—again and again—she had gotten grounded for two weeks.

Still typing, Miranda thought about Mr. Giuffreda. He expected nothing but the best—and then some. He never gave extensions unless someone had a family emergency, and he had a terrible habit of brushing off even the most creative excuses. Anyway, Miranda didn’t need an extra day or two. She needed time to read the entire novel again. Miranda ran a word count—361. She checked her watch—8:45. She flipped to the end of the book trying desperately to remember the ending, but nothing was coming to her. Why hadn’t she paid attention?

At 8:55, she had a whopping, miraculous 402 words. The homeroom bell had rung five minutes ago, and students were filing into the lab for first period. Miranda’s fingers were still flying, but by 8:59, Mrs. Brody asked Miranda to leave so she could start class on time. Miranda saved her work on her USB drive, collected her pages from the printer, and slung her knapsack over her shoulder. Then she trudged down the hall to Mr. Giuffreda’s class as slowly as possible, even though she knew she would be late and would probably get detention.

Select the correct answer.
What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Miranda will no longer be Mrs. Brody's assistant.
B. Miranda did not finish her book report on time.
C. Miranda will ask Mr. Giuffreda for an extension.
D. Miranda usually does a lot better in English class.

When should you paraphrase information instead of using a direct quote?

Answers

The correct answer is D. When the source goes into detail that you don't need

Explanation:

If you quote a source you include the exact words of the author; this means you do not modify any of the words, which is recommended in case you want to preserve the word choice of the author, the information might be altered if you summarize or paraphrase, or if the quote is memorable.

On the other hand, when you paraphrase you use your own words to state the point of the author. A valid reason to do this is "when the source goes into detail that you don't need" because by paraphrasing you can focus on key ideas from the source rather than quoting all the words of the author. Also, this is recommended if the essence of the ideas is still preserved.

"The clump of laurel in which the criminal lay was in the angle of a road which after ascending southward a steep acclivity to that point turned sharply to the west, running along the summit for perhaps one hundred yards. There it turned southward again and went zigzagging downward through the forest. At the salient of that second angle was a large flat rock, jutting out northward, overlooking the deep valley from which the road ascended. The rock capped a high cliff; a stone dropped from its outer edge would have fallen sheer downward one thousand feet to the tops of the pines. The angle where the soldier lay was on another spur of the same cliff. Had be been awake he would have commanded a view, not only of the short arm of the road and the jutting rock, but of the entire profile of the cliff below it. It might well have made him giddy to look." The description of the setting in the paragraph above, helps create A. the exposition. B. the rising action. C. the climax. D. the conflict.

Answers

Answer:

A. The exposition.

Explanation:

The exposition of a story is the background information that a writer provides in his work. This allows the readers to have a sense of awareness about what the story is about, what the setting is, and other details that suggest or give information about what the story is moving to.

The given excerpt from Ambrose Bierce's A Horseman in the Sky describes the setting of the story. This setting creates the exposition of the story, thereby giving the background information about the setting before the real conflict arises. Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

The excerpts from “The Significance of the Frontier in American History” conveys a negative tone toward the effects of the frontier is that, each one of the periods of lax financial integrity coincides with periods when a new set of frontier communities had arisen. Thus, option D is correct.

What is the frontier?

The political and geographical region next to or beyond a border is referred to as a frontier. The term “front” can also be used to describe a frontier. The word “borderland” refers to the area of a country that borders another country, and was first used in French in the 15th century.

In American history, the American frontier was the expanding border that delineated the areas that had been colonised by Europeans. The westward migration of European migrants from their initial colonies on the Atlantic coast to the Far West is what distinguishes it.

Therefore, option D is correct, that since they show how each time there was a period of loose financial integrity, it also happened to be during a time of frontier expansion.
