Read the passage.

I only wish I had words to serve me to blame those who are fain to extol the worship of men more than that of the sun; for in the whole universe there is nowhere to be seen a body of greater magnitude and power than the sun. Its light gives light to all the celestial bodies which are distributed throughout the universe; and from it descends all vital force, for the heat that is in living beings comes from the soul [vital spark]; and there is no other [center] of heat and light in the universe.

–"In Praise of the Sun,”
Leonardo da Vinci

Which excerpt from the passage supports the inference that humans need the sun to survive?

“those who are fain to extol the worship of men more than that of the sun”
“in the whole universe there is nowhere to be seen a body of greater magnitude and power than the sun”
“its light gives light to all the celestial bodies which are distributed throughout the universe”
“and from it descends all vital force”

Answers

Answer 1
I believe it is C
Not entirely sure though
Answer 2

The excerpt that supports the deduction of humans requiring the sun to survive would be:

d). “and from it descends all vital force.”

"In Praise of the Sun"

The above quote most effectively backs the idea of the significance of the sun for human existence and survival by showing that it degenerates its significant force to provide heat to humans.

This promotes the idea that the very essence of human survival i.e. heat and light are provided by the sun itself and therefore, its value must be recognized.

Thus, option d is the correct answer.

excerpt from “Mohandas Gandhi: Truth in Action” by Vanessa Wright

“Thief,” thought Mohandas Gandhi. “I am a thief.”

Fifteen-year-old Mohandas looked at the gold in his hand. He had stolen it from his brother. It was not his first theft: earlier, he had stolen coins from the family’s servants. But now, the gold in his hand burned like a hot coal. He sat down and wrote a letter of confession to his father.

Would his father punish him? Mohandas watched as his father read the note. Tears rolled down his father’s cheeks, wetting the paper. But there was no scolding. Silently, his father tore the letter into pieces. Later, Gandhi realized that, in his father’s response, he had seen the principle of Ahimsa—of nonviolence—in action. He dedicated his life to that principle.

Which statement best describes how the anecdote affects the text?

It shows that Gandhi is untrustworthy.


It reveals that Gandhi learns the importance of nonviolence.


It proves that gold is important to Gandhi.


It demonstrates that as a teen Gandhi has a permissive father.

Answers

It reveals that Gandhi learns the importance of nonviolence.
It reveals Gandhi Learns the importance of non-violence Why? Because his father was angry. He was sad. But did not want to be violent so he conveys his message through his tears.

I have trouble believing Mr. Sawicki's characterization of Steve, because he knows Steve only in school. Since Mr. Sawicki does not know Steve outside of school, he cannot make a judgment about what Steve has been doing in his neighborhood or who his friends are.

What does Dickinson ask and tell the reader in the first stanza?
How does a “Somebody” behave like a frog?
What other ideas does the comparison suggest?

Answers

well think about it , how does a frog behave or what are things that frogs do that the author says that , that person acts like one .

the person is probably sluggish and/or gluttonous, or the person is very hyper .

hope this helps :)

Answer:

Point of view: personal

In the first stanza, Dickinson, through the narrator, tells the reader that she’s “Nobody” and asks the reader who he or she is and whether he or she is a “Nobody” like her.

Just as a frog's constant croaking advertises its presence, a “Somebody” will grab attention through speaking and outward behavior. By comparing a “Somebody” to a frog, Dickinson suggests that this type of person does not really have any qualities or skills that make him or her worth noticing—this person is as dull as a croaking frog.

Being a modest and thoughtful “Nobody” is preferable to being a “Somebody” who simply makes a lot of noise to get attention.

Gottlieb Mittelberger was a schoolteacher who left Germany in May of 1750 to make his journey to America. He arrived at the port of Philadelphia in October of that year, and kept a diary detailing his experience on the journey. Read an excerpt from his firsthand account.

After reading the excerpt, briefly compare the man’s account of life on a ship to Avi’s portrayal of it in The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle. What are the main differences and similarities between each portrayal? Your response should be about 150 words.

Answers

Answer:

When the ships have for the last time weighed their anchors near the city of [Cowes] in Old England, the real misery begins with the long voyage. For from there the ships, unless they have good wind, must often sail 8, 9, 10 to 12 weeks before they reach Philadelphia. But even with the best wind the voyage lasts 7 weeks.

But during the voyage there is on board these ships terrible misery, stench, fumes, horror, vomiting, many kinds of sea-sickness, fever, dysentery, headache, heat, constipation, boils, scurvy, cancer, mouth-rot, and the like all of which come from old and sharply salted food and meat, also from very bad and foul water, so that many die miserably.

Add to this want of provisions, hunger, thirst, frost, heat, dampness, anxiety, want, afflictions and lamentations, together with other trouble, as c. v. the lice abound so frightfully, especially on sick people, that they can be. scraped off the body. The misery reaches the climax when a gale rages for 2 or 3 nights and days, so that every one believes that the ship will go to 'the bottom with all human beings on board. In such a-visitation the people cry and pray most piteously. . . .

I myself had to pass through a severe illness at sea, and I best know how I felt at the time. These poor people often long for consolation, and I often entertained and comforted them with singing, praying and exhorting; and whenever it was possible and the winds and waves permitted it, I kept daily prayer-meetings with them on deck. Besides, I baptized five children in distress, because we had no ordained minister on board. I also held divine service every Sunday by reading sermons to the people; and when the dead were sunk in the water, I commended them and our souls to the mercy of God.

Among the healthy, impatience sometimes grows so great and cruel that one curses the other, or himself and the day of his birth, and sometimes come near killing each other. Misery and malice join each other, so that they cheat and rob one another. One always reproaches the other with having persuaded him to undertake the journey. Frequently children cry out against their parents, husbands against their wives and wives against their husbands, brothers and sisters, friends and acquaintances against each other. But most against the soul-traffickers.

Many sigh and cry: "Oh, that I were at home again, and if I had to lie in my pig-sty!" Or they say: "0 God, if I only had a piece of good bread, or a good fresh drop of water." Many people whimper, sigh and cry piteously for their homes; most of them get home-sick. Many hundred people necessarily die and perish in such misery, and must be cast into the sea, which drives their relatives, or those who persuaded them to undertake the journey, to such despair that it is almost impossible to pacify and console them. In a word, the sighing and crying and lamenting on board the ship continues night and day, so as to cause the hearts even of the most hardened to bleed when they hear it. . . .
