Read the excerpt from “Tools of the Spymaster." James Jay's invisible ink did not become visible by heating. As he described it, his ink "would elude the generally known means of detection, and yet could be rendered visible by a suitable counterpart." Jay's invisible ink consisted of two chemicals. An agent used one chemical to write an invisible message. To read the message, the reader had to brush a second chemical on the paper; that chemical made the message visible. The two-bottle system, supplied by Jay, gave Washington the secure form of writing that he wanted. Which statement is best supported by text evidence from the excerpt? Heating was a generally known means of reading invisible ink. James Jay was widely considered a hero for his invention. Both the British and the Americans used James Jay’s invisible ink. Washington helped James Jay develop the two-bottle system.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The statement which is best supported by text evidence from the excerpt is:

A. Heating was a generally known means of reading invisible ink.

Explanation:

According to the excerpt, James Jay's invisible ink would "elude the generally known means of detection." What was that means? Heating, as is stated right before the sentence. Heating was so well know that Jay was sure the enemy would try to use it to reveal the writings in the messages. However, his new ink would not appear with heating. It needed another chemical to be made visible.

We can easily eliminate the other options. The excerpt does not give us enough information to infer that Jay was seen as a hero. At no point does the passage lead us to understand that the British also had access to the ink. Finally, the excerpt does not at all say that Washington helped develop the new invisible ink.

In pre-modern times, overconsumption was often limited to whom?
A. The sick and aged
B.
Children
C. The wealthy and powerful
OD
The poor

Answers

Answer:

C. The wealthy and powerful.

Explanation:

Overconsumption is the condition or event where consumption of resources is done and allowed to be done in excess. This means that people are allowed to consume as much as they want or like and sometimes even more.

In pre-modern times, this condition was not something that was accessible to everyone. Due to rampant poverty and limited resources, with no clear and smooth source of income, consumption for the poor was something that was and needs to be regulated. But overconsumption was not an issue with the rich and powerful, for they have the wealth and power to get their hands on everything they desire.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Why are there three lines in each stanza? What could be the purpose of the poet in writing three lines per stanza? (Islands and Icebergs)​

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

"Islands and Icebergs" by Ralph Semino Galan is a poem about reading a poem. The speaker asks readers to imagine the paper as being the ocean and the words to be floating on the that ocean. That is a clue as to why he writes three lines per stanza. The length of the lines, along with their number, reminds us of the waves, even the foam, to floats up and down, back and forth, on the ocean. The author wrote three lines per stanza as a way to make the poem itself resemble an ocean, instead of simply asking as to imagine it.

a)to argue a difficult point


b)to recount meaningful events


c)to hide someone’s identity

Answer:

Personal narratives use anecdotes to help their readers feel more connected with what's been said or written. It also helps the writer gain empathy from the readers. These stories are memorable ones, thereby helping in accentuating/ emphasizing the meaning of what the writer is trying to say.

Thus, the correct answer is option b.

What argument could someone disagree with springer stance make?

Answers

Answer:

A person who disagrees with Springer can claim that rewarding students for good academic performance, through money, is showing that their dedication has value and can generate benefits for them. This type of reward, when well established, generates motivation in students.

Explanation:

This question is about "What gets students motivated to work harder? Not money" by Matthew G. Springer

Springer demonstrates an experiment he carried out in a large school district. This experiment shows that offering money to students in exchange for good academic performance has made no difference to students' lives, which reinforces the idea of paying students to study, does not guarantee that they will be motivated and interested in academic growth.

However, many people may disagree with this and claim that rewarding students by giving them money when they demonstrate good academic growth is positive. These people claim that to reward is to value the dedication of students at school and that in order for this type of reward to work, it is necessary that the money be provided after the student demonstrates good academic performance and not before.

Answers

Answer:

The reason why the poet includes this metaphor is:

C.  to describe a prominent feature of Frida's face.

Explanation:

The poem talks of Frida Kahlo having "one black wing perched over her eyes." This metaphor refers to Kahlo's famous eyebrows, which she chose to never touch. Unlike most other women, Frida let her eyebrows unite between her eyes, black and opulent. It was a distinctive feature of her face, along with her upper-lip hair, which Kahlo made a point of picturing in her self-portraits.

Before a painting"" How does the sonnet structure of this poem contribute to the overall meaning

Answers

Answer:

The structure of the sonnet reinforces the idea that art influences feelings, even without the observer technically analyzing it.

Explanation:

The central theme of the poem is how art should be admired and its power to express the feelings of those who visualize it. The poet reinforces that for these feelings to be felt, the observed does not need to understand the artist's techniques or concepts. This can be perceived because in the first stanza of the sonnet, the poet shows that she does not need to know the name of the artist, nor the devices he used in art, in the second stanza, he shows that art itself is the only element capable of convey sensations.

The structure of the sonnet reinforces the idea that art influences feelings, even without the observer technically analyzing it.

these are just points but talk about how not everyone is "smart" academically but in different things such as sports, art etc and if schools are not devoting enough time to those students the won't be able to progress as much as those who fit the academic suit.

There are so many opportunities for people who play sports etc and schools need to shine light down that path for pupils who want to progress in a different path rather than academically as it isn't suited for everyone and it is unfair to think everyone can do the same things and everybody has different strengths and weaknesses.
