This is a really good story! If you continue it I would definitely read it! I would add a couple things to it to make the stranger seem more mysterious. Just to make it interesting.
Answer:
I feel like the ending is a bit boring, and I didn't develop any feelings or care for the characters getting harmed, also I think that you should slow down the story, it seems like everything just happened and it sorta goes TOO fast. I'm only saying these things because i'd like to see you succeed, also one more thing! When I first read this story, I didn't feel like the introduction grabbed my attention, and the tree house kind of seemed like they were at some abandoned building in the middle of a forest. LAST THING!! I'd like to know what could possibly be knocking down the tree, perhaps you could add something that makes it seem like the tree house is closing in on them, and an entity can be seen from inside of the branches. Something that just elaborates on what is hurting them, so we can get more of a bone chilling feel from whatever entity is throwing them around. I hope this helps!

A Letter from the Atlantic
Dear Hannah,
I’ve never seen so much water before—everywhere I look, all I can see around me is placid blue. I’m grateful for the calm water today because it enables me to ascend to the top level of the SS Frisia and look at the Atlantic Ocean that stretches before us until it meets the horizon. I feel the warm air on my face and smell the salty sea air, but there’s a pit in my stomach when I think about how different life in New York will be.
When we first set sail on August 21st, I watched until Hamburg became a miniscule speck in the distance. When I squinted and couldn’t see the familiar buildings with their smoke spewing into the air anymore, Papa told me to look the other way. “You can’t look back,” he said as he walked me to the other side of the ship, his strong arm supporting my shoulders. “Home is there now.” He pointed to a place that was shimmering waves of blue, and I had a hard time visualizing a home that was 6,000 kilometers of water. He told me to close my eyes and picture the skyline that would soon materialize on the horizon. I couldn’t even fathom 6,000 kilometers of water, just like I couldn’t fathom that our new home wouldn’t be Hamburg anymore.
Most of the days at sea have been turbulent; tall waves reach up from the bottom of the sea and smack into the ship, sending us to the ground whenever we are standing. We are jettisoned from one side of the ship to the other like billiard balls; we emigrants glance off one another before moving in separate directions. It was entertaining at first, but now the ship’s rocking motion makes me feel sick, so I descend back to the bottom level where my family’s room is. Through the tiny oval porthole, I watch as the rough water laps the glass.
We play games and read and sleep to pass the time—sometimes there’s violin music that drifts into our room at night. My brother and I step out into the hallway in our socks and dance to the fast beat together, and it makes the boat’s rocking seem bearable. Most nights, we practice some English words with one another peppered in with the German that I will soon use less and less. “I am from Germany,” I practice over and over again, elongating my mouth around vowels that are pronounced differently in English than in German. I still think in German, dream in German, feel German words fly off my tongue with a comfort and speed that I worry I’ll never feel when I speak English. What will happen to me if the English all around me displaces the German of my youth?
There are people on this ship from everywhere: The Kowalski family in the room next to ours is from Poland, while the Ivanov family on the other side is from Russia. We practice basic English with one another: “Good morning. How are you?” Behind the closed doors of strangers’ rooms, I hear unfamiliar consonant sounds making up the lyrics to lilting songs. I can only imagine that these melodies are about feeling adrift; though we come from different places, nostalgia and homesickness know no borders or boundaries.
When I write these letters to you, I wonder where you are and what you are doing. Are you still walking along the canals of the Speicherstadt the way we used to after school? Do you still hear the bells of St. Michael’s Church resounding through the air? Does the bakery on the corner still serve our favorite Brötchen when it comes right out of the oven?
I miss you more than I can say in this letter. Say hello to everyone for me and tell them that my family is doing well. By the time I get on land to mail this letter, I will be at Ellis Island!
Love,
Liesl
Read this passage from Liesl's brother's diary.
I draw pictures of New York in my diary every night. Every time I think about New York, my legs jitter with excitement. Everything will be so new and different! I practice English with everyone I know, even with my family who still wants to speak to me in German. I'm starting to think in English and can't wait until English is all I speak. People walk around here like they are sad, but I couldn't be happier. I think I've already forgotten my life in Hamburg. Ellis Island, here we come!
In the fourth paragraph of "A Letter from the Atlantic," Liesl wonders what will happen "if the English all around [her] displaces the German of [her] youth."
How does Liesl's viewpoint conflict with that of her brother?
Liesl fears she will not speak English well, while her brother is confident in his English skills.
Liesl worries about losing ties to her home culture, while her brother looks forward to joining a new culture.
Liesl plans to remain proficient in German, while her brother plans to embrace English.
Liesl is certain she will be able to embrace two cultures, while her brother thinks he must choose one.
Answer:
Liesl worries about losing ties to her home culture, while her brother looks forward to joining a new culture.

Which statement best compares the people in the Secret Annexe with their helpers in Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl?
The people of the Secret Annexe are brave, while their helpers are fearful.
The people of the Secret Annexe often complain, but the helpers are quiet about their hardships.
The people of the Secret Annexe are more careful about their security measures than the helpers.
The people of the Secret Annexe fear being found, while the helpers are not as concerned.
Answer:
The people of the Secret Annexe often complain, but the helpers are quiet about their hardships.
Explanation:
Anne Frank's "The Diary of A Young Girl" provides a rare insight into how the Jews were treated during the Nazi regime under Hitler. This short memoir presents the life of Anne Frank and her family, including the Van Daans during their hide-out.
One best comparison between the Franks-Van Daans who are hiding in the Secret Annexe and the ones helping them survive (Miep and Jan, among others) is that the residents of the Secret Annexe would complain at times while the helpers remained quiet and supportive of what their work entails. The complaints from the Secret Annexe residents mostly came from the Van Daans, though at times the Franks also did it. On the other hand, Miep and Jan never wavered in their need and want to help the residents in making sure they get enough supplies to survive and not be discovered by any spies or Gestapo.
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
Match each term with its corresponding sentence. Please help!!!!
Answer:
Fused sentence- I fell off my bike while riding down the street.
Comma splice- I own two old dirt bikes, they're fun to ride.
Misplaced modifier- While riding my bike, my dog ran up to me.
Fragment- Riding a dirt bike down a long winding path.
Dangling participle- While biking, I wore a helmet it's safer that way.
Explanation:
A fused sentence is when two independent clauses/ sentences are put together as a single sentence without the use of punctuation or a coordinating conjunction to separate them. This type of sentence is also known as a run-on sentence. "I fell off my bike while riding down the street."
Comma splice is when the two independent clauses are put together in a single sentence with the use of a comma to separate them. "I own two old dirt bikes, they're fun to ride."
Misplaced modifier is when the modifier is placed in such a way that it is unsure or confusing to know which noun the modifier is modifying. "While riding my bike, my dog ran up to me."
A fragment is a slice/ piece of sentence that is not complete but just a part of a whole sentence. It is an incomplete sentence. "Riding a dirt bike down a long winding path."
A dangling participle is when the adjective modifies the wrong noun in the sentence. "While biking, I wore a helmet it's safer that way."

Sunderland College has historically had an outstanding football team. In its 50-year history, the team has had more winning seasons than any other team in the state. In the last 10 years, however, the team has been on an astoundingly rapid downward spiral-with eight losing seasons. Coach Wilson is unquestionably responsible for this losing streak. Since he was hired 10 years ago, the team has not won a single championship. If Coach Wilson is allowed to continue managing the team, there is little hope of a winning season in the near future.
Which sentence best explains the effect of the words astoundingly and unquestionably in the passage?
1. They help the reader visualize how quickly the team declined.
2. They stress the degree to which coach Wilson is incompetent.
3. They help the reader determine how many games the team has lost.
4. They stress the amazing skill of the team before Coach Wilson took over.
Answer:
2. They stress the degree to which coach Wilson is incompetent.
Explanation:
Although from the first sentence, the use of the adverb "outstandingly" helps the reader see how much the team has declined, its main objective in the passage is to show coach Wilson's degree of incompetence.
This was made clearer when another adverb "unquestionably" was linked to the "losing streak" mentioned earlier in the passage. In other words, starting 10 years ago, after a new coach was hired, Sunderland College astoundingly could not win a single championship, which unquestionably indicates the degree to which coach Wilson is incompetent.
justify the statement component-based software engineering allows faster delivery
Answer:
The statement that component-based software engineering allows faster delivery is true.
This is because the components of the software are developed separately and in such a way that they are reusable. This is unlike the development of software as a single object, where the different components are not identifiable and cannot be developed separately.
Therefore, developing software using the component-based system, which also encourages division of labor, allows for speed in the delivery of the software because different specialized teams of software engineers can work on the separate components. No single team is overburdened.
Explanation:
Component-based software engineering is the design and development of computer-based systems with the help of reusable software components. The software components, which are separate software entities, offer specific services, with each component interfacing with the others. Software components include application programs, device drivers, and operating systems. Though they perform completely different jobs, all three work closely together to perform useful work.

There is no time for procrastination. It is better to enjoy the love of your family now, developing stronger relationships with each other, than to wait until all things are right.

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:
Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Brown v. Board of Education, written by Justice Warren.
Minors of the Negro race, through their legal representatives, seek the aid of the courts in obtaining admission to the public schools of their community on a non-segregated basis. In each instance, they had been denied admission to schools attended by white children under laws requiring or permitting segregation according to race. This segregation was alleged to deprive the plaintiffs of the equal protection of the laws under the Fourteenth Amendment. In each of the cases other than the Delaware case, a three-judge federal district court denied relief to the plaintiffs on the so-called "separate but equal" doctrine announced by this Court in Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U. S. 537. Under that doctrine, equality of treatment is accorded when the races are provided substantially equal facilities, even though these facilities be separate. In the Delaware case, the Supreme Court of Delaware adhered to that doctrine, but ordered that the plaintiffs be admitted to the white schools because of their superiority to the Negro schools.

Situational irony occurs when the outcome of an event is
contrary to one's expectations. How does this scene
demonstrate situational irony?
Answer:
A). The scene demonstrates situational irony because Jim says that he doesn't mind Della's new haircut, but he really does.
Explanation:
Situational irony is characterized as the literary device through which the author employs to display the disparity between expectations and reality. In the given scene, this contradiction is displayed in Jim's reaction when he asserts that he has no problem with Della getting a new haircut but in reality, he was affected by it. Thus, there is a contrast between the intended reaction and the actual reaction of Jim. Hence, option A is the correct answer.
