INSTRUCTIONS In this assignment, you will revise the story below to create your own story an improved final draft. You will also submit a reflection paragraph.

PARAGRAPH:On March 15, 2014, the residents of New York City buried a time capsule. Their hope was that on March 15, 2114, it would be opened and the future residents of NYC would see what life was like 100 years in the past. Locked away in the titanium cylinder were important artifacts from the present day. The objects were chosen by citizens from all walks of life and professions: librarians, teens, computer programmers, medical professionals, research scientists, gardeners, biologists, and more. Etched onto the surface of the time capsule were the words of a famous author, William Faulkner: "I believe that man will not merely endure. He will prevail….because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance." The capsule was buried with much hope for the future. Sadly, things didn’t turn out as they had hoped. By March 15, 2514, New York had become a desperate place. Something big had changed. The city was in near ruins. Citizens were terrified. Two teens – or kidz, as they were called now – were on their way home from a secret meeting. As they walked in the shadows to avoid detection, they tripped on a huge titanium cylinder. Etched into the surface were a series of scratched-out words. The only words they could make out were, "He will prevail." The kidz dragged the heavy cylinder into a hidden alleyway and twisted it open. The glow from their flashlights revealed what was inside. With gasps of relief, they looked at each other with hope in their eyes for the first time in years.

Which statement best summarizes the central idea of
the paragraph?
Read this paragraph from.chapter 5 of The Prince.
There are, for example, the Spartans and the Romans.
The Spartans held Athens and Thebes, establishing
there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. The
Romans, in order to hold Capua, Carthage, and
Numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. They
wished to hold Greece as the Spartans held it, making it
free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. So to
hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in
the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain
them otherwise than by ruining them. And he who
becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and
does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for
in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its
ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time
nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. And whatever
you may do or provide against, they never forget that
name or their privileges unless they are disunited or

A.The Spartans and the Romans are alike in how they

Romans shows that it is best to establish an oligarchy
in a newly acquired state that is accustomed to
freedom

Read the following passage from "Resistance to Civil Government" by Henry
David Thoreau:

Yet this government never of itself furthered any
enterprise, but by the alacrity with which it got out of its
way. It does not keep the country free. It does not settle
the West. It does not educate. The character inherent in
the American people has done all that has been
accomplished; and it would have done somewhat more, if
the government had not sometimes got in its way.

How does Thoreau use a parallelism in this passage?

A. To emphasize the words "but by the alacrity with which it got out of its way"

B. To compare the government to an obstacle, such as a tall mountain or river

C. To draw attention to what the American people do that the government doesn't.

Read the extract below and identify the three kind(s) of bias that are apparent within it.

Despite being reintroduced in the 1600s by idle, muddle-headed aristocrats in order to be slaughtered for fun, all the wild boars that were brought to Australia from the continent eventually died out.


For the next 300 years there were no boars in Australia, but in the 1980s farmers saw a chance to diversify and began to import and farm them. Some of these beautiful, intelligent animals escaped and established herds of their own, once again living wild and purely natural lives.


While their ideal home is in woodland, boars are hardy and are able to live in multiple habitats.

a/ Mistreatment of opposing views

b/ Positive Stereotyping

c/ Subjective Vocabulary

Excerpt from Dombey and Son
Charles Dickens

Dombey sat in the corner of the darkened room in the great arm-chair by the bedside, and Son lay tucked up warm in a little basket bedstead, carefully disposed on a low settee immediately in front of the fire and close to it, as if his constitution were analogous to that of a muffin, and it was essential to toast him brown while he was very new. Dombey was about eight-and-forty years of age. Son about eight-and-forty minutes. Dombey was rather bald, rather red, and though a handsome well-made man, too stern and pompous in appearance, to be prepossessing. Son was very bald, and very red, and though (of course) an undeniably fine infant, somewhat crushed and spotty in his general effect, as yet. On the brow of Dombey, Time and his brother Care had set some marks, as on a tree that was to come down in good time-remorseless twins they are for striding through their human forests, notching as they go-while the countenance of Son was crossed with a thousand little creases, which the same deceitful Time would take delight in smoothing out and wearing away with the flat part of his scythe, as a preparation of the surface for his deeper operations.

From "A Nocturnal Reverie" by Anne Finch When a sedate content the spirit feels, And no fierce light disturbs, whilst it reveals;
But silent musings urge the mind to seek Something, too high for syllables to speak; Till the free soul to a composedness charmed,
Finding the elements of rage disarmed, O'er all below a solemn quiet grown, Joys in the inferior world, and thinks it like her own:
Which of the following accurately paraphrases the passage?

Only two multiple choice questions for ELA, please explain as well! I always vote, thank, and if possible give out the brainliest!

please help 50 points and brainlist Read the following speech excerpt and then select the correct answer to the question below: President George W. Bush’s speech to the troops on the USS Abraham Lincoln Our mission continues. Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed. The scattered cells of the terrorist network still operate in many nations, and we know from daily intelligence that they continue to plot against free people. The proliferation of deadly weapons remains a serious danger. The enemies of freedom are not idle, and neither are we. Our government has taken unprecedented measures to defend the homeland — and we will continue to hunt down the enemy before he can strike. The war on terror is not over, yet it is not endless. We do not know the day of final victory, but we have seen the turning of the tide. No act of the terrorists will change our purpose, or weaken our resolve, or alter their fate. Their cause is lost. Free nations will press on to victory. Other nations in history have fought in foreign lands and remained to occupy and exploit. Americans, following a battle, want nothing more than to return home. And that is your direction tonight. After service in the Afghan and Iraqi theaters of war — after 100,000 miles, on the longest carrier deployment in recent history — you are homeward bound. Some of you will see new family members for the first time — 150 babies were born while their fathers were on the Lincoln. Your families are proud of you, and your nation will welcome you. How is the third paragraph different from the first two? It no longer sounds authoritative or informed about the situation. It broadens its view to consider the service people around the world. It gets more specific by talking about the service people on the USS Lincoln. It comes across as unfeeling and insensitive to the people who have suffered.
