Answer:
C. It is human nature to mock or make light of problems we have been delivered from.
Explanation:
Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" revolves around the doctor in his search for the fountain of youth. The story delves into themes of mortality, reformation, reality, mystery, etc.
Dr. Heidegger had invited four of his friends to try out his "fountain of youth" and see if it works. Once the water had been consumed by the four, they began to change, aging backward. What was once old and saggy skin, turned into youthful-looking individuals. And once they became youthful, they began to mock their "old-fashioned attire--the wide-skirted coats and flapped waistcoats of the young men, and the ancient cap and gown of the blooming girl." The statement that "[the] singular effect of their gayety was an impulse to mock the infirmity and decrepitude of which they had so lately been the victims" seems to suggest that their gaiety over their transformation only resulted in them mocking their old selves' fashion choices.
This shows that human nature is prone to make fun of or criticize the problems that one has just gone through.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Read this excerpt from "Are Dogs Dum?" from Karen Hopkin.
Norton Milgram and his coworkers at the University of Toronto at Scarborough use treats to give dogs a Canine IQ test. The dog is presented with a tray with a blue block on it; underneath the block is a treat. The animal moves the block and gets the treat. So far, so good. Now the test gets tricky. The dog is presented with the same tray, but this time it has both a blue block and a yellow coffee can lid (or white bowl or black square of cloth) on it; the treat is now under the yellow lid (or white bowl, etc.). The test: how long does it take for the dog to learn that the treat is always under the new item on the tray? The smarter the dog, the quicker she'll find the treat.
Which detail from the text best supports the inference that the dog smells the treat?
"The animal moves the block and gets the treat."
"The smarter the dog, the quicker she'll find the treat."
"…this time it has both a blue block and a yellow coffee can lid (or white bowl or black square of cloth) on it."
"The dog is presented with a tray with a blue block on it; underneath the block is a treat."

Answer:
Explanation:
Many people in Texas suffered because of the low temperature last week. It even went down to from -23 to - 30 degrees. Texas' weather varies widely, from arid in the west to humid in the east. The huge expanse of Texas encompasses several regions with distinctly different climates: Northern Plains, Trans-Pecos Region, Texas Hill Country, Piney Woods, and South Texas. Generally speaking, the part of Texas that lies to the east of Interstate 35 is subtropical, while the portion that lies to the west of Interstate 35 is arid desert.
Texas ranks first in tornado occurrence with an average of 139 per year. Tropical cyclones can affect the state, either from the Gulf of Mexico or from an overland trajectory originating in the eastern Pacific Ocean. Those originating from the Gulf of Mexico are more likely to strike the upper Texas coast than elsewhere. Significant floods have occurred across the state throughout history, both from tropical cyclones and from stalled weather fronts.
The Northern Plains' climate is semi-arid and is prone to drought, annually receiving between 16 and 32 inches (810 mm) of precipitation, and average annual snowfall ranging between 15 and 30 inches, with the greatest snowfall amounts occurring in the Texas panhandle and areas near the border with New Mexico. During the summer, this area of state sees the most clear days.[2] Winter nights commonly see temperatures fall below the freezing mark, or 32 °F (0 °C). The wettest months of the year are April and May.[3] Tornadoes, caused by the convergence of westerly and southerly prevailing winds during the late spring, are common, making the region part of Tornado Alley.[4] Poor land management, drought, and high wind speeds can cause large dust storms, minimized in modern times by improved land-management practices, but most troublesome in the 1930s during the Dust Bowl period.[5] The panhandle region, farthest from the Gulf of Mexico, experiences colder winters than the other regions of Texas, where occasional wintertime Arctic blasts can cause temperatures to plunge to well below freezing and bring snowy conditions.[6]
The Trans-Pecos region, also known as Big Bend Country, is in the west-central and western parts of the state, consisting of the Chihuahuan Desert and isolated mountain ranges. During fall, winter, and spring, it experiences the most clear days statewide.[2] It is also the driest receiving an average annual rainfall of only 16 inches (410 mm) or less. Snowfall is rare at lower elevations, although the highest mountain peaks are prone to heavy snowfalls during winter. The arid climate is the main reason for desertification of the land, but overgrazing is slowly widening the land area of that desert. In the mountain areas one can see coniferous forests in a wetter and more temperate environment. The wettest months in this region occur during the summer.[3] Winds are strengthened as they are forced to push through canyons and valleys. In the flatter areas these winds are harvested into usable electricity.
The Texas Hill Country, or central Texas is shaped by its many rivers and hills. The climate is semi-arid west of Brady through Junction to Rocksprings, but it is sub-humid east and south of that area; both areas have hot summers and mild winters with occasional cold spells. Humidity is high during the warm season, though afternoons especially further northwest can see a wind shift and drier air before Gulf air returns after sunset. The vegetation is both broadleaf evergreen and deciduous in the river valleys, and coniferous where there is greater elevation. Dry savannas, open woodlands, and shorter grasses dominate the northwest, while closed woodlands and moist savannas mix with taller grasses in the east and south. In a single year the region can receive up to 48 inches (1,200 mm) of precipitation, and flooding is common near rivers and in low-lying areas, while drier years might receive only 12 inches (300 mm) of precipitation; average annual precipitation ranges from 21 inches (530 mm) in western sections up to 35 inches (890 mm) in southeast. The wettest months of the year are April and May.[3]

13) How do the last two lines of the poem reveal the difference between the speaker's perception of Richard Cory and Richard Cory's own feelings about himself?
Answer:
The speaker shows Richard as someone admirable and that everyone envied, but the last two lines, show that Richard did not support his own existence and had very strong internal conflicts in relation to himself.
Explanation:
The poem "Richard Cory" features a speaker who admires Richard and shows how all people can not not envy him, where he bakes. That's because Richard is handsome, rich, well educated, discreet and has everything he wants. However, the last two lines of the poem state that "And Richard Cory, one calm summer night, / Went home and put a bullet through his head." This shows that although people believed that Richard had a perfect life, he had no peace and could not endure his own existence.

Read the following excerpt from Mateo’s speech to the school district on its snow day policy. When Mateo delivered the speech, he made sure to use many expressive hand gestures, a casual tone, and a varying pace.
“Our district’s current snow day policy was designed to balance the safety of students and teachers with the need to prevent disruptions to learning. However, the policy does not take into account the modern realities of the classroom. Our overly cautious policy calls for no more than five snow days per school year, with a preference for late-start over total cancellation. With online textbooks and lectures available to us, however, we can stay home without disrupting learning—so why maintain such strict limits?”
Which of the following statements BEST evaluates his delivery?
A.
A more casual tone was appropriate for the speech’s content and audience.
B.
A faster pace would have been more appropriate for the speech’s content and audience.
C.
The expressive hand gestures were appropriate for the speech’s content and audience.
D.
A professional tone would have been more appropriate for the speech’s content and audience.
Answer:
B. A faster pace would have been more appropriate for the speech’s content and audience.
Explanation:
Mateo is speaking to the audience and refers to the audience as US indicating he is talking to fellow students about the injustice of the strict snow days.
Children are more likely to get bored listening to a talker with a professional tone or if the speaker is being more casual then the audience would think the speech is not important allowing the audience to miss the speech before it has even begun.
But by making the speech faster you are allowing the audience to begin to believe on their own about the injustice and it begins to work up their blood pressure.
Hitler was very good at getting the people to believe in what he wished because he made his speeches short and fast.

Kylie strolled across the school sidewalk. Everyone in her family always thought she talked to much. But Kylie wasn't sure not how to. There was so much about the world that was great to talk about. Today was the talent show. Kylie decided to join just because her older brother dared her, Kylie's brother, Kyle, hated her, he knew everyone would just hate her more after she wasted their time with her random act, because watching the talent show wasn't mandatory. Kylie walked into the cafeteria and got ready for her turn to show her talent, she slowly walked up the stage as it was her turn. Kylie had written a speech about the school, as she read it a loud, it lifted everyone's spirits, because the speech was great! Kylie found that, even though she talked a lot and enjoyed much, she can use it to make the world a better place.
