"My fellow-citizens, no people on earth have more cause to be thankful than ours, and this is sald reverently, in no spirit of boastfulness in our own strength, but with gratitude to the Glver of Good who has
blessed us with the conditions which have enabled us to achieve so large a measure of well-being and of happiness. To us as a people It has been granted to lay the foundations of our national life in a new
continent. We are the heirs of the ages, and yet we have had to pay few of the penalties which in old countries are exacted by the dead hand of a bygone civilization. We have not been obliged to fight for
our existence against any alien race; and yet our life has called for the vigor and effort without which the manlier and hardier virtues wither away. Under such conditions It would be our own fault if we
failed; and the success which we have had in the past, the success which we confidently believe the future will bring, should cause in us no feeling of [vanity], but rather a deep and abiding realization of all
which life has offered us; a full acknowledgment of the responsibility which is ours; and a fixed determination to show that under a free government a mighty people can thrive best, alike as regards the
things of the body and the things of the soul.
Much has been given us, and much will rightfully be expected from us. We have duties to others and duties to ourselves; and we can shirk neither. We have become a great nation, forced by the fact of its
greatness into relations with the other nations of the earth, and we must behave as beseems a people with such responsibilities. Toward all other nations, large and small, our attitude must be one of
cordial and sincere friendship. We must show not only in our words, but in our deeds, that we are earnestly desirous of securing their good will by acting toward them in a spirit of just and generous
recognition of all their rights. But justice and generosity in a nation, as in an individual, count most when shown not by the weak but by the strong. While ever careful to refrain from wrongdoing others, we
must be no less insistent that we are not wronged ourselves. We wish peace, but we wish the peace of justice, the peace of righteousness. We wish it because we think it is right and not because we are
afrald. No weak nation that acts manfully and justly should ever have cause to fear us, and no strong power should ever be able to single us out as a subject for Insolent aggression."

Roosevelt states that "Much has been given us, and much will rightfully be expected from us." What is one example from the text of something that is expected from us?

A. To achieve so large a measure of well-being and of happiness
B. To pay few of the penalties which in old countries are exacted by the dead hand
C. To show that under a free government a mighty people can thrive best
D. To single us out as a subject for Insolent aggression​

I think it might be A.

Explanation:

I chose A. because we have been given great things so we must show our gratitude and work harder to achieve greater goals.

Read the excerpt from The Common Sense of Bicycling: Bicycling for Ladies.

By straightening the knees and using the ankle movement freely, the rise of the knees may be lessened several inches. When the pedal is at the highest point, the toe should be raised and the heel lowered. . . . although the right pedal is at the highest point, the knee has made very little impression on the front skirt. The feet should be in line with the machine, turning neither in nor out. The knees must be kept pretty close to the machine and should not move laterally at any part of the circle. The arms should have a slight drop at the elbows. The handles should be about level with the saddle, but this will depend on relative length of arms and waist.

Does Warren provide sufficient evidence in this excerpt that the difference in pay between men and women is harmful? Yes, because it is clear to any reasonable person that women deserve the same pay as men. No, because she does not provide statistics to back up her evidence.

Read the following passage from Muir's "Calypso Borealis" and respond to the prompt. [2] The rarest and most beautiful of the flowering plants I discovered on this first grand excursion was Calypso borealis (the Hider of the North). I had been fording streams more and more difficult to cross and wading bogs and swamps that seemed more and more extensive and more difficult to force one's way through. Entering one of these great tamarac and arbor-vitae swamps one morning, holding a general though very crooked course by compass, struggling through tangled drooping branches and over and under broad heaps of fallen trees, I began to fear that I would not be able to reach dry ground before dark, and therefore would have to pass the night in the swamp and began, faint and hungry, to plan a nest of branches on one of the largest trees or windfalls like a monkey's nest, or eagle's, or Indian's in the flooded forests of the Orinoco described by Humboldt. [3] But when the sun was getting low and everything seemed most bewildering and discouraging, I found beautiful Calypso on the mossy bank of a stream, growing not in the ground but on a bed of yellow mosses in which its small white bulb had found a soft nest and from which its one leaf and one flower sprung. The flower was white and made the impression of the utmost simple purity like a snowflower. No other bloom was near it, for the bog a short distance below the surface was still frozen, and the water was ice cold. It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy. How do authors communicate their tone in a piece of writing? Identify the tone (or tones) of this passage.

Select the correct answer. What does this excerpt from George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion tell readers about Alfred Doolittle's character? DOOLITTLE: Don't say that, Governor. Don't look at it that way. What am I, Governors both? I ask you, what am I? I'm one of the undeserving poor: that's what I am. Think of what that means to a man. It means that he's up agen middle class morality all the time. If there's anything going, and I put in for a bit of it, it's always the same story: "You're undeserving; so you can't have it." But my needs is as great as the most deserving widow's that ever got money out of six different charities in one week for the death of the same husband. I don't need less than a deserving man: I need more. I don't eat less hearty than him; and I drink a lot more. I want a bit of amusement, cause I'm a thinking man. I want cheerfulness and a song and a band when I feel low. Well, they charge me just the same for everything as they charge the deserving. What is middle class morality? Just an excuse for never giving me anything. Therefore, I ask you, as two gentlemen, not to play that game on me. I'm playing straight with you. I ain't pretending to be deserving. I'm undeserving; and I mean to go on being undeserving. I like it; and that's the truth. Will you take advantage of a man's nature to do him out of the price of his own daughter what he's brought up and fed and clothed by the sweat of his brow until she's growed big enough to be interesting to you two gentlemen?

He was a rich nobleman once.

Which excerpt from "The Masque of the Red Death" best shows Prince Prospero’s self-centeredness? It was in the eastern or blue chamber in which stood the Prince Prospero as he uttered these words. They rang throughout the seven rooms loudly and clearly, for the prince was a bold and robust man, and the music had become hushed at the waving of his hand. It was then, however, that the Prince Prospero, maddening with rage and the shame of his own momentary cowardice, rushed hurriedly through the six chambers, while none followed him on account of a deadly terror that had seized upon all. When the eyes of the Prince Prospero fell upon this spectral image (which, with a slow and solemn movement, as if more fully to sustain its role, stalked to and from among the waltzers) he was seen to be convulsed, in the first moment with a strong shudder either of terror or distaste; but, in the next, his brow reddened with rage. But the Prince Prospero was happy and dauntless and sagacious. When his dominions were half depopulated, he summoned to his presence a thousand hale and light-hearted friends from among the knights and dames of his court, and with these retired to the deep seclusion of one of his castellated abbeys.

What themes are found in "From Fugitive to Freedom: The Story of the Underground Railway"?

Sanchez, the defense lawyer, had wanted her client to
plead guilty. Her client, Holmes, probably wasn't guilty, but
the prosecutor was going to use so many shady tactics to
make him look guilty, Sanchez wasn't sure she could win.
With a guilty plea, Holmes would at least get a lighter
sentence. But there was no use arguing with him anymore.
Holmes had insisted. "Even if they lock me up for years," he
had said, "I will never admit to that crime." Holmes was a
difficult man to work with, but Sanchez admired his sense
of honor.
The judge banged her gavel and asked, "How do you
plead?"
Sanchez took a deep breath. "Not guilty, Your Honor," she
said. And so the trial began.

B. Holmes
C. The prosecutor
O D. The judge
