Which lines in this excerpt of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol reflect the theme of compassion versus material gain?
"But you were always a good man of business, Jacob,"faltered Scrooge, who now began to apply this to himself.
"Business!" cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. "Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy,
forbearance, and benevolence, were, all, my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my
business!"
It held up its chain at arm's length, as if that were the cause of all its unavailing grief, and flung it heavily upon the ground again.
"At this time of the rolling year," the spectre said, "I suffer most. Why did I walk through crowds of fellow-beings with my eyes turned down, and
never raise them to that blessed Star which led the Wise Men to a poor abode! Were there no poor homes to which its light would have
conducted me!"
Scrooge was very much dismayed to hear the spectre going on at this rate, and began to quake exceedingly.
"Hear me!" cried the Ghost. "My time is nearly gone."
"I will," said Scrooge. "But don't be hard upon me! Don't be flowery, Jacob! Pray!"
"How it is that I appear before you in a shape that you can see, I may not tell. I have sat invisible beside you many and many a day."
It was not an agreeable idea. Scrooge shivered, and wiped the perspiration from his brow.
"That is no light part of my penance," pursued the Ghost. "I am here to-night to warn you, that you have yet a chance and hope of escaping my
fate. A chance and hope of my procuring, Ebenezer."
'You were always a good friend to me," said Scrooge. "Thank'ee!"

Answer:
Oooo, interesting :0 -

2 years. The Great Blinding has been around for 2 dam.n years.
Not a single human has had the ability to see since then.
Well until now apparently.
I felt a shriek escape my lips, my heart throbbed with panic, light and colors blurred together, fear clogging my throat, what in the hel.l?!?!.
My breath dragged through my lungs, I could see.
It was fuzzy at first, just a bunch of whites, grays, and blacks, then it clicked into focus.
I was on my knees, a small stain of scarlet blossoming from a tear in a black jumpsuit. My hands were clenched onto the rough fabric pale with shoc- my hands.
Dark rich skin, generously sprayed with freckles, a thin scar lacing across one of them, my hands.
I laughed hysterically, tearing my gaze away from myself "I-I can see. I ca-" I stopped, my ebbing fear returning. Written on every wall, in a painfully saturated crimson, with thousands of layers were the words
DON'T TELL THEM YOU CAN SEE.
side note- so you wouldn't regain sight naturally this quickly, it would take several months, but I was lazy lol

Which of the following best describes the tone of Gandhi's piece?
defeated
apathetic
irritated
furious
Hello. You did not inform Gandhi's piece here the question refers. This makes it impossible for your question to be answered. however, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
It is only possible to answer your question after reading the Gandhi's piece. After reading, you will be able to determine the tone of the text. This is because the tone of a text is the feeling that the author wants to convey through that text. In this case, a text with a defeated tone will be a pessimistic and sad text, which expresses that the narrator has missed something. A text with an apathetic tone, is a text that does not present emotions and does not emphasize any feeling, but is indifferent. A text with an angry or furious tone, is a text where the narrator is angry, without patience, stressed and very angry.
Select the correct text in the passage. Which detail in the text best reflects the central idea of the passage? Dictatorships by Hal Marcovitz (excerpt from “The Rise of Julius Caesar”) Sulla was a brutal and relentless dictator. But one enemy who escaped his wrath was Gaius Julius Caesar. Caesar was born in 100 BCE to a wealthy family. As a nephew of Sulla’s opponent Marius, Caesar found himself on Sulla’s list of enemies. No doubt he too would have been killed, but his family intervened, and Sulla reluctantly spared his life. Next, Sulla ordered Caesar to divorce his wife. Caesar refused and fled the city. He joined a Roman army campaigning in Turkey and did not return until after Sulla’s death in 78 BCE. After returning to Rome, Caesar involved himself in the political intrigues of the republic and began his rise to power. His chief adversary was Sulla’s son-in-law, the powerful general Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, known familiarly as Pompey. Instead of directly challenging Pompey, Caesar decided to bide his time. He struck an alliance with Pompey, who convinced the Senate to place Caesar in command of a Roman army. Under Caesar, the Romans conquered areas of modern France and Britain, as well as other parts of Europe. It was a campaign that would make Caesar an enormously heroic figure among the Roman people. As Caesar made his way back to Rome, the Senate ordered him to disband his army. Caesar refused. Instead, on January 10 in 49 BCE, Caesar led his army in an attack on Rome. As his army crossed the Rubicon River to reenter Italy, Caesar is said to have remarked, “Let the dice fly high!” Caesar’s ploy was not much of a gamble. His army easily swept aside his enemies, including his one-time ally, Pompey. Caesar marched into the city and declared himself dictator. After another four years of warfare in which he pursued his enemies across Europe and Africa, Caesar returned to Rome. He found the once-defiant senate now willing to bow down to his authoritarian power. The Roman senators elected Caesar dictator for

5. Many critics see Benjamin the cynical donkey as representing the sentiments (ideas and feelings) of George Orwell. If this is true, what do you think George Orwell wanted readers to learn (big, universal ideas) by reading Animal Farm? Explain your thinking and use AT LEAST TWO pieces of text evidence to support your thinking. Answer in AT LEAST FIVE complete sentences using RACES format.
Answer:
As horses are known for their strength, donkeys are known for their stubbornness, and Benjamin stubbornly refuses to become enthusiastic about the rebellion. While all of his comrades delight in the prospect of a new, animal-governed world, Benjamin only remarks, "Donkeys live a long time. None of you has ever seen a dead donkey." While this reply puzzles the animals, the reader understands Benjamin's cynical yet not-unfounded point: In the initial moments of the rebellion, Animal Farm may seem a paradise, but in time it may come to be another form of the same tyranny at which they rebelled. Of course, Benjamin is proven right by the novel's end, and the only thing that he knows for sure — "Life would go on as it had always gone on — that is, badly" — proves to be a definitive remark about the animals' lives. Although pessimistic, he is a realist.
