Hatchet by Gary Paulsen

“I will not let you go out, he said to himself, to the flames—not ever. And so he sat through a long part of the day, keeping the flames even, eating from his stock of raspberries, leaving to drink from the lake when he was thirsty. In the afternoon, toward the evening, with his face smeared and his skin red from the heat, he finally began to think ahead to what he needed to do.”

Question 1 (1 point)
How does this excerpt contribute to the theme of the novel?

a
Brian’s knowledge of what he can eat and drink shows that knowledge is the key to survival in the wild.
b
Brian’s organization in planning ahead shows that it is important to remain hopeful in desperate situations.
c
Brian's dedication to the fire shows that learning to persevere and not give up is necessary in overcoming a challenge.
d
Brian’s fear of losing the fire shows that being nervous in a desperate situation makes a person aware of his surroundings.

Answer:

Explanation:

C i'm pretty sure don't quote me on it

Answer:

C:

When we use elimination, we immediately see that D, "Brian's fear of losing the fire shows that being nervous in a deseperate situation make a person aware of his surroundings." Of course, this is correct in other terms but the main idea of the story is definitely not the fact that Brian needs to be aware of his surroundings. It is something he does need to do, though, but this claim cannot be supported throughout the story. The same goes with A, and even B.

Passage from “Horrible Accident in Vermont” pls help

Read the excerpt from We Shall Not Be Moved.

Everywhere in the garment district, by the front gates of little shops and big ones, picketers marched and sang. "O Dubinushka," they sang, and "Tortured and Enslaved," and other Russian folk and revolutionary airs. Icy rains poured down on them, some were in danger of frostbite — a winter of record-breaking cold had already begun — but there they were and there they stayed.

The union men were amazed. "There never was anything like it," one ILGWU official declared. "An equal number of men never would hold together under what these girls are enduring.”

How would a careful rereading of this excerpt help a reader understand who made up the ILGWU?

A.The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the author’s reference to “union men” just before it.
B.The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the reference to “these girls” in the same quote.
C.The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the author’s description of “other Russian folk” in the first paragraph.
D.The reader could make a connection between the quote by one ILGWU official and the descriptive phrase “they sang” in the first paragraph.

Emma has been asked to write and reflect on the theme of law maintaining order in society. She is using this passage from The Jungle Book.

"Open those eyes, Little Brother! Shere Khan dares not kill thee in the jungle for fear of those that love thee; but remember, Akela is very old, and soon the day comes when he cannot kill his buck, and then he will be leader no more. Many of the wolves that looked thee over when thou wast brought to the Council first are old too, and the young wolves believe, as Shere Khan has taught them, that a man-cub has no place with the Pack. In a little time thou wilt be a man."

"And what is a man that he should not run with his brothers?" said Mowgli. "I was born in the jungle; I have obeyed the Law of the Jungle; and there is no wolf of ours from whose paws I have not pulled a thorn. Surely they are my brothers!"



Which writing sample is the best reflection of this important theme?

Good friends are an important part of life. Mowgli has been a great friend to his wolf brothers. His Pack will keep him safe.
It is best to quit while ahead in life. Akela has been a strong leader, but he is getting old and weak. It would be wise for Akela to leave the Pack.
Fitting in is hard to do. Mowgli is turning into a man as he grows. It will not be long before Mowgli has to leave the Pack.
When laws are not obeyed, society is not safe. Once Akela is gone, the Law of the Jungle may not be obeyed. Mowgli will be in danger of losing his life.

By pointing out the need to protect the environment at the end of paragraph 1, the author is
A. suggesting that coal companies are unsympathetic.
B. stating that the environment is not so badly damaged.
C. trying to distract readers from the real issue at hand.
D. appealing to readers' feelings of compassion.
