Read this sentence from "The Water Cycle." As water molecules heat up, water changes from a liquid to steam or vapor. One student guessed that vapor means "a gas, like steam." Which word or words in the sentence will best help the student verify the meaning? A liquid B steam C heat up D water molecules
Answer:
steam
Explanation:
Let us consider the sentence again:
'As water molecules heat up, water changes from a liquid to steam or vapor.'
Now, the meaning of this sentence is clearly understood if the student can understand the meaning of the word 'steam' because that is where his/her confusion lies.
If the meaning of 'steam' is understood, the student can now verify the meaning of the sentence. This is clear from the observation that the action expressed by the sentence is the change of water to steam.

A. Those who are imprisoned do not understand why they are not free.
B. Those who are trapped eventually forget the feeling of being free.
C. The psychological pain of being trapped is greater than any physical pain.
D. Those who break the rules of society deserve to be imprisoned.
Answer:
C: The psychological pain of being trapped is greater than any physical pain.
Explanation:
I took the test.
The statement that most aptly displays the theme of the poem "Sympathy" would be:
C). The psychological pain of being trapped is greater than any physical pain.
Paul Laurence Dunbar's poem titled "Sympathy" primarily functions to convey the idea of the emotional pain and struggle that one feels on being caged or imprisoned. The poem talks about the emotional plight that the caged birds suffer due to not being free and displays the significance of being liberated.This communicates that the mental pain and pressure felt by being confined or captured is more hurtful and distressful than being hurt physically.Thus, option C is the correct answer.

(WORTH 95 POINTS) write a declaration of independence to the f451 government. Use the U.S. Constitution as a reference!!!
Bradbury ties personal freedom to the right of an individual having the freedom of expression when he utilizes the issue of censorship in Fahrenheit 451. The First Amendment to the United States Constitution reads:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for redress of grievances.
The common reading of the First Amendment is that commitment to free speech is not the acceptance of only non-controversial expressions that enjoy general approval. To accept a commitment to the First Amendment means, in the words of Justice Holmes, "freedom for what we hate." As quoted in Students' Right to Read (NCTE, 1982), "Censorship leaves students with an inadequate and distorted picture of the ideals, values, and problems of their culture. Writers may often be the spokesmen of their culture, or they may stand to the side, attempting to describe and evaluate that culture. Yet, partly because of censorship or the fear of censorship, many writers are ignored or inadequately represented in the public schools, and many are represented in anthologies not by their best work but by their safest or least offensive work." What are the issues involved in censorship?
Imagine that a group wants to ban Fahrenheit 451 because Montag defies authority. For the sake of the argument, assume for a moment that you wish to "ban" Fahrenheit 451 from the library shelves. To do so, you must do a number of things. First, you must establish why defying authority is wrong. What are its consequences? What are the probable effects on youth to see flagrant disregard of authority? (In regard to these questions, you may want to read Plato's Apology to get a sense of how to argue the position.) Second, you must have some theory of psychology, either implied or directly stated. That is, you must establish how a reading of Fahrenheit 451 would inspire a student to flagrantly disregard authority. Why is reading bad for a student? How can it be bad? Next, you must establish how a student who reads Fahrenheit 451 will read the book and extract from it a message that says "Defy Authority Whenever Possible" and then act on this message.
You must then reconcile whatever argument you construct with the responsibilities that accompany accepting the rights of the First Amendment. Perhaps you should consider and think about the issues of free speech and fundamental rights that you may not have considered before. Indeed, you may conclude that you can't claim your own right to expression if you have the right to suppress others rights to express themselves.
In looking at censorship in Fahrenheit 451, Bradbury sends a very direct message showing readers what can happen if they allow the government to take total control of what they do (or do not) read, watch, and discuss. For example, the government in Fahrenheit 451 has taken control and demanded that books be given the harshest measure of censorship — systematic destruction by burning.
Although the books and people have fallen victims to censorship in Fahrenheit 451, luckily, some citizens remain who are willing to sacrifice their lives to ensure that books remain alive. As Faber notes in a conversation with Montag, "It's not books you need, it's some of the things that once were in books." Faber then continues this conversation with Montag pointing out that people need "the right to carry out actions based on what we learn [from books]. . . ."
Because the government has censored so much in its society, the citizens in Fahrenheit 451 have no idea about what is truly happening in their world. A direct result of their limited knowledge is that their entire city is destroyed because propaganda wouldn't allow individuals to see that their destruction was imminent.

how can you use clues to determine the meaning of a word?
Answer:
Context clues (or as you said "clues") are when we are reading and the author helps to let us understand want it happening better by using actions, symbols,etc.
Explanation:
For example, examine this sentence and determine the meaning of "dubious":
"Although some believe in the existence of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and the existence of extraterrestrial life, more are dubious about these things."
When you examine the word "dubious" in the context of this sentence, you should be able to make some inferences and educated guesses about the meaning of the word "dubious". The meaning of this word is to be doubtful. This inference and educated guess can be arrived at by comprehending and understanding the context within which the word occurred. This sentence states that "some believe in the existence of unidentified flyer objects and the existence of extraterrestrial life" but still more are doubtful about these things. The word "although" in this sentence is also an important clue because it suggests that the opposite of "some believe" is "more are dubious" meaning more are doubtful.
