Dorian Gray, the protagonist of Oscar Wilde's book, is a character who demonstrates narcissistic traits. He was once a good man, but a portrait has changed him. Because to this, Dorian develops an overwhelming admiration for himself, which ultimately causes him to fall.

Psychopathy, which is frequently confused with sociopathy, is characterized by persistent antisocial behavior, decreased empathy and regret, as well as brash, uncontrolled, and narcissistic traits.

Many definitions of psychopathy have been used throughout history, some of which only slightly overlap and occasionally conflict.

In the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the American psychologist George E. Partridge and psychiatrist Hervey M. Cleckley had an impact on the initial diagnostic criteria for antisocial personality reaction/disturbance (DSM).

THE END OF WINTER
As I approached, I startled a group of sparrows that had been feeding in the grass, and they flew up to the safety of an old oak tree. It was still early enough in the year that the branches of the tree were bare. But the bird songs and the warm sun made me feel certain that winter was ending. As I watched, the sparrows dropped from their high perches and settled again in the grass to hunt for food. Like winter, I was just an interruption.

What part of the story does the poem focus on?

A.
The fact that it still looks like winter

Read this passage from your science course. (The passage is from the lesson on speed.)

Speed—also called average speed—is an idea you live with every day. Sometimes you want to know how fast something is moving or can move. You may be interested in auto racing and want to know how fast one of the cars can go. You may be a goalie on your soccer team—and you want to know how fast the ball can be coming at you. To calculate speed, you can use a simple scientific formula r = d/t.The r stands for rate of motion (speed), the d stands for distance, and the t stands for time. So speed is equal to distance divided by time.

Which answer best describes the structure of this passage?


A. a definition of speed, followed by several examples of speed in action

B. description of event related to speed, followed by a definition of average speed

C. everyday examples of questions about speed, followed by the rule for figuring out speed

D. rules for calculating speed in different settings, followed by examples
