Read the Greek myth "Midas" retold by Thomas Bulfinch and answer the question.
[1] Bacchus, on a certain occasion, found his old schoolmaster and foster-father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity.
[2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice.
[3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold.
[4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day.

How does Shakespeare use figurative language to develop the character of Cassius?
Answer:
I think Cassius uses figurative language, such as the simile that compares Caesar to Colossus, to illustrate the dangers of Caesar's rise to power. He uses the metaphor of a beast eating when he asks, “Upon what meat doth this our Caesar feed / That he is grown so great?” (lines 158–159).

Doctor Pascal
by Emile Zola
In the heat of the glowing July afternoon, the room, with blinds carefully closed, was full of a great calm. From the three windows, through the cracks of the old wooden shutters, came only a few scattered sunbeams which, in the midst of the obscurity, made a soft brightness that bathed surrounding objects in a diffused and tender light. It was cool here in comparison with the overpowering heat that was felt outside, under the fierce rays of the sun that blazed upon the front of the house.
Standing before the press which faced the windows, Dr. Pascal was looking for a paper that he had come in search of. With doors wide open, this immense press of carved oak, adorned with strong and handsome mountings of metal, dating from the last century, displayed within its capacious depths an extraordinary collection of papers and manuscripts of all sorts, piled up in confusion and filling every shelf to overflowing. For more than thirty years the doctor had thrown into it every page he wrote, from brief notes to the complete texts of his great works on heredity. Thus it was that his searches here were not always easy. He rummaged patiently among the papers, and when he at last found the one he was looking for, he smiled.
For an instant longer he remained near the bookcase, reading the note by a golden sunbeam that came to him from the middle window. He himself, in this dawnlike light, appeared, with his snow-white hair and beard, strong and vigorous; although he was near sixty, his color was so fresh, his features were so finely cut, his eyes were still so clear, and he had so youthful an air that one might have taken him, in his close-fitting, maroon velvet jacket, for a young man with powdered hair.
Without the information provided by the second paragraph, the reader might draw which of these conclusions about Dr. Pascal? (5 points)
He is lingering over something written by his fianceé.
He is having an unpleasant memory from his childhood.
He is reading a necessary piece of advice from his doctor.
He is putting off going outside to perform an unpleasant task.
Answer:
He is lingering over something written by his fiancee'.
Explanation:
Pascal's character was really Zola and the dealing with the morbid themes. She wants to burn all of his stuff; he wants lock his papers up so she cannot get to them. He and his niece fall in love. This would be considered an incestuous relationship.

Answer:“Last Love” by Rachel McKibbens.
To my daughters I need to say:
Go with the one who loves you biblically.
The one whose love lifts its head to you
despite its broken neck. Whose body bursts
sixteen arms electric to carry you, gentle
the way old grief is gentle.
Love the love that is messy in all its too much,
The body that rides best your body, whose mouth
saddles the naked salt of your far gone hips,
whose tongue translates the rock language of
all your elegant scars.
Go with the one who cries out for her tragic sisters
as she chops the winter’s wood, the one whose skin
triggers your heart into a heaven of blood waltzes.
Go with the one who resembles most your father.
Not the father you can point out on a map,
but the father who is here, is your home,
is the key to your front door.
Know that your first love will only be the first.
And the second and third and even fourth
will unprepare you for the most important:
The Blessed. The Beast. The Last Love,
which is, of course, the most terrifying kind.
Because which of us wants to go with what can murder us?
Can reveal to us our true heart’s end and its thirty years
spent in poverty? Can mimic the sound of our bird-throated mothers,
replicate the warmth of our brothers’ tempers?
Can pull us out of ourselves until we are no longer sisters
or daughters or sword swallowers but, instead,
women who give and lead and take and want
and want and want and want,
because there is no shame in wanting.
And you will hear yourself say:
Last Love, I wish to die so I may come back to you
new and never tasted by any other mouth but yours.
And I want to be the hands that pull your children
out of you and tuck them deep inside myself until they are
ready to be the children of such a royal and staggering love.
Or you will say:
Last Love, I am old, and have spent myself on the courageless,
have wasted too many clocks on less-deserving men,
so I hurl myself at the throne of you and lie humbly at your feet.
Last Love, let me never roll out of this heavy dream of you,
let the day I was born mean my life will end
where you end. Let the man behind the church
do what he did if it brings me to you. Let the girls
in the locker room corner me again if it brings me to you.
Let this wild depression throw me beneath its hooves
if it brings me to you. Let me pronounce my hoarded joy
if it brings me to you. Let my father break me again
and again if it brings me to you.
Last love, I have let other men borrow your children. Forgive me.
Last love, I once vowed my heart to another. Forgive me.
Last Love, I have let my blind and anxious hands wander into a room
and come out empty. Forgive me.
Last Love, I have cursed the women you loved before me. Forgive me.
Last Love, I envy your mother’s body where you resided first. Forgive me.
Last Love, I am all that is left. Forgive me.
Last Love, I did not see you coming. Forgive me.
Last Love, every day without you was a life I crawled out of. Amen.
Last Love, you are my Last Love. Amen.
Last Love, I am all that is left. Amen.
I am all that is left.
Amen.

Therefore, although Brutus feels badly about betraying
his friend, he knows it was the right thing to do.
Brutus is a character that symbolizes loyalty
because of his overall commitment to Rome.
For example, Brutus states that it was "Not that
- I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more."
Answer:
Claim or thesis: Brutus is a character that symbolizes loyalty because of his overall commitment to Rome.
Supporting evidence: For example, Brutus states that it was "Not that I love Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more."
Commentary of explanation: Therefore, although Brutus feels badly about betraying his friend, he knows it was the right thing to do.
Explanation:
A claim or thesis is the topic which the author intends to discuss in his writing or speech. Usually, the claim concerns an opinion that will be defended and supported throughout the essay or speech. In this case, it is the author's opinion that Brutus, a character is Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar", was a symbol of loyalty.
To support his claim, the author will provide evidence or examples. In this case, the example the author gives to show how loyal Brutus was is the character's lines about his love for Caesar and for Rome. Brutus loved both but, because his love for Rome was deeper, he chose to betray Caesar.
Finally, the author comments on the evidence he has provided in a concluding manner. The word "therefore" helps identify this element. In this case, the author is explaining what the example shows, confirming his own claim.
Answer:
Brutus is a character that symbolizes loyalty because of his overall commitment to Rome. > claim, or thesis
Therefore, although Brutus feels badly about betraying his friend, he knows it was the right thing to do. > commentary or explanation
For example, Brutus states that it was “Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more.” > supporting evidence

Write a narrative of your own choice of between 300-400 words.
Answer:
I was about 9 or 10 years old when I became a Pathfinder. Pathfinders is a club like the Boy Scouts . In Pathfinders, you would appear at your church every Monday evening and learn things and attain honors. One of the things that Pathfinders would do is go on campouts. We would go and learn camping skills and survival skills.
I remember it was my first year of Pathfinders and I was excited to go on my first campout. On Thursday the second I got home I promptly asked for my suitcase so I could pack. I had gotten a packing list and I quickly got a clipboard from my mom and a pen. I looked at my list and I proceeded to grab anything that I needed.
Any time I had grabbed an item I would check it off my list. One of the things on the optional list that caught my eye was to bring a knife. I didn't have a knife so I didn't pack one. After I was done packing I went on with the rest of my day. I could barely sleep a wink because of the excitement I had.
Friday finally came. We headed to our church where we were supposed to meet. When we got there we loaded our belongings into the trailer and had a prayer. Then we all got in our groups for the car ride and headed out.
We drove for what seemed like hours at the time. When we finally got to the campsite everyone set up the tents and choose who they wanted to share tents with. Setting up the tent was one of the first things I learned. And after a few years of being in Pathfinders, I've gotten the hang of it. After everyone finished we would usually have a little bit of time to hang out and play.After it had become late we would make a fire, gather in a circle, and have worship. Once worship was over we would get ready for bed and go to bed.
