Briefly describe a time you faced a challenge that forced you to grow, or a time you set a goal you were determined to achieve. What encouraged or motivated you to carry on?

Answer: This will be very unique to a specific person. I'll give you an example that pertains to me.

Explanation:

A challenged that I faced was applying for the Las Vegas Fire and rescue (Fire Department) recruitment. This encouraged me to grow because I had to buckle down and be responsible to pass the recruitment test. I had to set asside fun and goofing around. I also had to work out very hard and be physically fit to lift 200 lbs over my head with ease. So I worked hard and was able to pass with high scores. What really motivated me was my girlfri.end. I understand that she'll still love me even if I didn't pass but I didn't want to go to her as a failiure. She was also there to encourage me to do well. She motivated me to carry on when things started getting tough and I started to doubt myself.      

Answer: hope this helps

Select the correct text in the passage.

Antoine is writing a paper on how to develop creative tourist attractions. Which sentence from the passage is most relevant to his topic?

The miniature city of Madurodam in the Netherlands is a great attraction for tourists. Originally opened in 1052, it has received millions of visitors. The miniature park was originally built for the young George Maduro, a law student known for his heroism. Today, the place is open for visitors who want to feel like a giant for a day. It is like a real version of the classic novel Gulliver's Travels, in which Gulliver visits Lilliput, a land filled with small beings. Everything in Madurodam is about 25 times smaller than real life. What makes Madurodam so appealing is its ability to immerse visitors in this fantasy world. They get to see scaled-down versions of some of the famous Dutch landmarks and cities, which is a source of great enjoyment. Regular visitors and tourists alike can bend down and touch the tiny ships in the harbor or cover the lighthouse beacon with their hands.

Which sentence describes the point of view in this speech by President Thomas Jefferson to a group of Native Americans who traveled across the country to meet with him?

My friends and children, I have now important advice to give you. I have already told you that you and all the red men are my children, and I wish you to live in peace and friendship with one another as brethren of the same family ought to do. How much better is it for neighbors to help than to hurt one another; how much happier must it make them. If you will cease to make war on one another, if you will live in friendship with all mankind, you can employ all your time in providing food and clothing for yourselves and your families. Your men will not be destroyed in war, and your women and children will lie down to sleep in their cabins without fear of being surprised by their enemies and killed or carried away. Your numbers will be increased instead of diminishing, and you will live in plenty and in quiet.

President Jefferson sees Native Americans as his enemies and wants to show them he is more powerful.

President Jefferson see Native Americans as wise people who have a lot to teach him.

President Jefferson sees the Native Americans as his equals who share his values.

President Jefferson sees Native Americans as children and friends he must teach and protect.
