Read this excerpt from a story.
Antwon and his sister stepped gingerly down their porch stairs, reaching the driveway with some difficulty. "I can’t believe they didn’t cancel school," Lucy complained.
"It's just a little ice. It'll be gone by noon," Antwon countered, but as he replied, his boots slipped and he went down, landing with a grunt on the curb.
"I'm alright," he muttered, gathering his belongings. He rose slowly and continued walking. His pace was noticeably slower, and he eyed the pavement suspiciously.

If you were writing a draft of an essay and wanted to check the spelling of a word, which would be the BEST resource to use?
A) a magazine
B) a search engine
C) an online dictionary
D) one of your classmate's essays
Answer:
An online dictionary
Explanation:
The reason I say that is because the dictionary has all the words in the world, even words we never heard of.
Ex.1
Complete the sentences with the negative of the words in the box by adding un-;in-;dis- or ir-.There are two extra words.
Ex.2
Complete the text with the words in the box. There are two extra words.
Answer:
1. Dishonest.
2. Uncooperative.
3. Unfair.
4. Insensitive.
5. Disloyal.
Ex. II.
1. Physicist.
2. Discovery.
3. Canals.
4. Discovery.
5. Novels.
Explanation:
Exercise I.
1. John was dishonest and didn’t tell his parents the truth. The opposite of honest is dishonest which simply means not being truthful.
2. Tim often refuses to work with others. He’s quite uncooperative. The opposite of cooperative is uncooperative and it simply means not being open or willing to work with others.
3. Bill sang better than Jan, but she won the singing contest. That was unfair. The opposite of fear is unfair which simply means to act in an irrational manner.
4. Martin upsets people sometimes with the things he says. He can be a bit insensitive. The opposite of sensitive is insensitive and it simply means having an error of judgement or lacking in emotional intelligence.
5. My friends are never disloyal They’d never talk about me when I’m not there. The opposite of loyal is disloyal which simply means to demonstrate divided support for someone or something.
Exercise II.
Do you have lots of dreams and ambitions for the future? I do! For example, I think it would be important to become a brilliant physicist and be famous all over the world because I had made a great discovery. The problem is, I'm not very good at science! So instead, I'd like to have a boat, and travel up and down the canals in my country. I love being on water! And during my journeys, I could spend some time taking photographs of the countryside and selling them to make money. Then in my spare time, I could read my favorite novels! Sounds great, doesn't it?
Do you believe that humans are the product of Nature or Nurture? Are we are who we are because of our DNA and instincts or are we the way are because the experiences we've had and the way were raised? What is more powerful in what we become: Nature or Humans Influence
Read this excerpt from chapter 2 of The Scarlet Letter. Standing on that miserable eminence, she saw again her native village, in Old England, and her paternal home; a decayed house of gray stone, with a poverty-stricken aspect, but retaining a half-obliterated shield of arms over the portal, in token of antique gentility. What is the effect of the underlined words in this excerpt
Answer:
c. They portray a former setting with humility and dignity.
Explanation:
Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlett Letter," tells the story of Hester Prynne and her 'punishment' for committing adultery. The novel deals with themes of society, religion, good vs. bad, patriarchy, societal criticism, patriarchy, etc.
In the given excerpt from Chapter 2 of the story, Hester saw "her native village, in Old England".

Thus, the correct answer is option c.

I looked this question up online and found it refers to the part "bursting with evil".
Answer:
Based on its structure, the word that most likely has the closest meaning is:
B. baleful.
Explanation:
If someone's face seems to be bursting with evil to the point of giving people the chills, we can say their face or look is baleful. "Baleful" is the same as "menacing" or "threatening".

Answer:B (baleful)

A green isle in the sea, love,
A fountain and a shrine,
All wreathed with fairy fruits and flowers,
And all the flowers were mine.

Answer: Both recall an all-consuming love
Explanation:
The ideas in the excerpt similar to Poe’s ideas in the first stanza of Annabel Lee as both of them recall an all-consuming love.

write a letter to your house Master telling him about the concerns of the students in the house
Answer:
To
The Headmaster,
Greenhouse School
Mao, Manipur.
Subject: A constructive observation of the inefficiency of the school and remedial measures.
Dear Sir,
With due respect, the undersigned would like to put forth some of my observations and opinions to your esteemed office under your kind consideration.
Transportation
Uniforms
Fees
Teacher
As a student who has spent almost a decade in this school, I am indebted to the college for what I've become and owns a big share of responsibility especially in moments like this when the administration and whole functioning of the school are quickly degrading.
Firstly addressing the issue of transportation, our school is at least 4Km away from the students' residences. In this era we can expect no parents making their children walk such distance on foot. And there are no proper means that could be availed for their daily schooling. To this I suggest the administration under your leadership, work towards extending the hostels and building new hostels, making it a totally residential one. If not purchase a bus for the school. The bust can be plied with monthly fees and the investment of 15 lakhs can hopefully be recovered in 10 years making it a win-win investment for both the school and the students. In this way the number of students decreased in the last few years can be retained. (And go on addressing the other issues respectfully, with genuine concern. What is needed in this type of letter is not criticism. Anybody can criticize but takes lots of Education and years of experience to give a useful tip. Don't address the problems as a stranger, who are you to interfere? Such a question can divert real intention. Be someone willing to share the failure and even more responsible in claiming a share towards a solution. Writing with such a clear perspective will avoid any kind of misunderstanding and this can be settled for good).
Looking forward to working together in any capacities for the welfare of the school. Thank you for considering my opinions, in anticipation.
Sincerely Yours,
Name———
School Captain

If you were to change the ending of the story ‘After Twenty Year' what would it be. Write in about 60-80 words
Answer:
An alternative ending to the story could be that Bob recognized Jimmy and left a note for him.
Explanation:
After Twenty Year is a short story written by O. Henry. The story is about two fast friends, Jimmy and Bob, who decide to meet exactly at the same place after twenty years. The ending that O. Henry gave to the story was Jimmy, who had become a cop, get his friend Bob arrested, a most wanted criminal.
An alternative ending to the story could be that Bob recognized Jimmy and left a note for him. It can be an alternative ending because Bob recognized that the tall man was not Jimmy because of his nose, then he must have recognized Jimmy's features as well.
So, an alternative ending is written below,
After the cop and Bob bid each other a good night, Bob stood there in the dark silent night. Bob had recognized the cop and knew he was Jimmy, his old friend. The irony of the situation was that they both recognized each other but could not reveal their identity because of the professions they have taken. One had become a faithful cop of his city, New York; while the other had taken on a profession of crime in the West.
So, after the cop left the place, Bob was happy to see his old friend after a long time. Bob also knew that Jimmy has recognized him, the most wanted criminal of the West. So, he left a note for him because he knew that he would make arrangements for his arrest.
The note said:
Dear Jimmy,
I had a great twenty minutes with you. I had recognized you and also knew that you recognized me and knew what profession I have taken.
I am happy that you still a man of your word, you fulfilled your promise by coming and meeting me. And, I also know that you are a faithful cop.
So, I am leaving this note for you!
Bye!
Bob.
