HURRY!! A hush fell over the crowd as Samir approached the stage; he took a deep breath and tried to still the tremble in his hands.
He had rehearsed the speech for days, practicing late into the night when the house was quiet. The night before, he had been putting the finishing touches on the speech when his mother snuck up the stairs and stopped by his bedroom door with a mug of tea.
“It looks like you will need this. How’s it coming?” She tucked the long end of her sari under her leg and sat on his bed.
The familiar smell that reminded him of trips to India tickled his nose as he took the warm mug from her; he pressed it to his lips and took a long sip. “I don’t think they’re going to understand it.”
“It’s okay if they don’t understand it in their brains; it’s more important that they feel it here.” She pressed her hand to his heart.
“My friends don’t know what you went through to get here, and I want to get it just right because I need them to like the story.”
“Your friends will like you no matter what. Practice it one more time, and then you need to get some sleep.”
He stared at the words that he had painstakingly crafted to tell the story of how his parents had immigrated to the United States from India. Even though he hadn’t been born at the time, he could feel the heat on their skin as they’d packed up their belongings in Mumbai and boarded the plane for their new lives. After a twenty20-hour flight, they landed in the chill of Chicago; they hadn’t brought enough heavy clothes with them and had to buy sweatshirts from the airport store before stepping out into snow for the first time. His mother had danced around in the swirling white like a fascinated child, tasting flakes on her tongue before the cab whisked them away to their new lives.
He didn’t know how his parents got by in those early days of loneliness and isolation, when they didn’t know their neighbors and couldn’t find their favorite spices or flavors in the local grocery store. He imagined his homesick mother making pungent curry in the tiny kitchen of the apartment that was their first home—curry that she didn’t share with anyone except her husband because he was the only person she knew.
Eventually they had made a life there, and one year after they’d brought Samir home as a newborn, his younger sister Aarti was born, and they became a family of four. Each year that his parents lived in Chicago, they spoke about Mumbai like it was more of a memory. Samir grew up hearing stories of Mumbai and taking summer trips where he heard his parents speak a language that was clumsy on his own English-speaking tongue. He couldn’t imagine leaving his life and moving herefar away, but he knew that his parents had done it for him and his sister. “It was the ultimate sacrifice,” his mother had said, “but it was worth it.”
When he had finished rehearsing his speech for his mother, she dabbed her face, and he knew she was crying. He didn’t need to ask how the speech was—her expression told him that it was perfect.
Samir’s thoughts came back to the present moment as he cleared his throat and stepped onto the stage in front of the entire middle school—his friends and teachers were all here. He had often felt different from his peers and wanted so much for them to understand his story. But looking out into the crowd at all the different faces he realized that his peers must have their own stories to tell as well. Perhaps they wanted to be understood, too. He realized the only way to be understood is to share those stories. Perhaps if he shared his own story, others would share theirs, too. Perhaps it would help them to understand one another. He found his mom’s eyes in the middle of the front row. When she nodded, he began.
“I’m going to tell the story of how my parents became American citizens.”

Which sentence BEST describes the process of drawing conclusions based on the information in a table?
A.)Decide what broad statement the data supports.
B.)Agree to be persuaded by the writer’s argument.
C.)Notice your emotional reaction to data in the table.
D.)Evaluate the accuracy of the information displayed.
Answer: A.)Decide what broad statement the data supports.
Explanation:
If you need to draw conclusions from the data presented on a table, you should look at the information presented and decide what broad statement that data seems to support. That would be your conclusion.
Option B is wrong because a certain degree of scepticism is needed rather than complete agreeableness. Option C is wrong because emotions do not allow for very good conclusions and option D would be correct except it would be difficult to evaluate the accuracy of the information displayed if no referent information is given.
Answer:
A) Decide what broad statement the data supports.

Which statement is the best inference from the explicit and implicit details in
the passage?
Walking to school Tuesday morning, Jonah wrinkled his nose. "What is
that?" he asked, "It smells like smoke."
"You're right" agreed Angelo. Then he saw a plume of black smoke
rising from the river several miles away. He pointed at it. Just then, a
fire truck screamed by, lights on and sirens blaring, heading toward the
smoke.
A. Angelo has better vision than Jonah does.
B. There is a fire near the river.
O OGO O
C. Angelo doesn't smell the smoke.
D. The river is closer than they think.
Answer:
Answer is B
Explanation:
By using their senses which is demonstrated by Jonah and Angelo in the passage they knew that a fire is happening near a river.
Answer:
B. There is a fire near the river.
Explanation:
Explicit details are details that are stated directly and clearly, without vagueness or ambiguity. Implicit details are the opposite - they are understood from the context without being directly stated.
Based on details from this passage, we can conclude that there is a fire near the river. There is smoke rising from the river and a fire truck driving towards the location of the fire.
The fact that Jonah smelled the smoke first doesn't mean that Angelo didn't smell it as soon as his attention was brought to it. The same goes for the fact Angelo saw the smoke first. It doesn't mean that he has better vision than Jonah; he was just the first to notice the smoke. The given details also don't tell us that the river is closer than they think.
This is why option B is the correct one.
SOURCE 1: Professor's Wilkinson's theory on cloud formation is a
challenge to the accepted model taught in meteorology classes all
over the country. His Ideas are sure to revolutionize our field and leave
scientists dizzy for generations to come.
SOURCE 2: Everyone's favorite weirdo, Professor Wilkinson, has
proposed some funny Ideas about cloud formation. Normally, we
would dismiss such nonsense outright, but Wilkinson is a respected
professor, and he has tested his hypothesis with field research, so I
guess we'll take the time to publish his argument and then let the
scientific community destroy it.
Which statement best synthesizes Information from both sources?
O A. Professor Wilkinson's opinion about cloud formation disagrees
with what most scientists believe.
O B. Professor Wilkinson's ideas on cloud formation will eventually
change what scientists believe.

result of his outlandish personality

I am writing an essay about who shaped Montag the most and I chose Beatty
I need 3 quotes that Captain Beatty said that helped shape Montag and the meaning of those quotes to back up my reasoning
PLS HELP ME
Answer:
Montag says these words to Mildred after he is called to burn books at a house. The woman who lived within the home remained inside and burned with her books. This event follows Montag’s encounter with Clarisse, the first person he’d met who was curious about the world and other people. The combination of meeting Clarisse and encountering the woman who would prefer to die with her books than live without them, brings Montag to a new realization. There must be something of value in books to cause someone to make such a sacrifice.
