The War of the Worlds
by H. G. Wells [1898]
But who shall dwell in these worlds if they be
inhabited?…Are we or they Lords of the
World?…And how are all things made for man?—
KEPLER (quoted in The Anatomy of Melancholy)
BOOK ONE: THE COMING OF THE MARTIANS
CHAPTER ONE: THE EVE OF THE WAR, excerpt
No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter. It is possible that the infusoria under the microscope do the same. No one gave a thought to the older worlds of space as sources of human danger, or thought of them only to dismiss the idea of life upon them as impossible or improbable. It is curious to recall some of the mental habits of those departed days. At most terrestrial men fancied there might be other men upon Mars, perhaps inferior to themselves and ready to welcome a missionary enterprise. Yet across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us. And early in the twentieth century came the great disillusionment.
Yet so vain is man, and so blinded by his vanity, that no writer, up to the very end of the nineteenth century, expressed any idea that intelligent life might have developed there far, or indeed at all, beyond its earthly level. Nor was it generally understood that since Mars is older than our earth, with scarcely a quarter of the superficial area and remoter from the sun, it necessarily follows that it is not only more distant from time's beginning but nearer its end.
The secular cooling that must someday overtake our planet has already gone far indeed with our neighbour. Its physical condition is still largely a mystery, but we know now that even in its equatorial region the midday temperature barely approaches that of our coldest winter. Its air is much more attenuated than ours, its oceans have shrunk until they cover but a third of its surface, and as its slow seasons change huge snowcaps gather and melt about either pole and periodically inundate its temperate zones. That last stage of exhaustion, which to us is still incredibly remote, has become a present-day problem for the inhabitants of Mars. The immediate pressure of necessity has brightened their intellects, enlarged their powers, and hardened their hearts. And looking across space with instruments, and intelligences such as we have scarcely dreamed of, they see, at its nearest distance only 35,000,000 of miles sunward of them, a morning star of hope, our own warmer planet, green with vegetation and grey with water, with a cloudy atmosphere eloquent of fertility, with glimpses through its drifting cloud wisps of broad stretches of populous country and narrow, navy-crowded seas.
And we men, the creatures who inhabit this earth, must be to them at least as alien and lowly as are the monkeys and lemurs to us. The intellectual side of man already admits that life is an incessant struggle for existence, and it would seem that this too is the belief of the minds upon Mars. Their world is far gone in its cooling and this world is still crowded with life, but crowded only with what they regard as inferior animals. To carry warfare sunward is, indeed, their only escape from the destruction that, generation after generation, creeps upon them.
What key idea does the text below suggest?
The immediate pressure of necessity has brightened their intellects, enlarged their powers, and hardened their hearts.
As their situation grew worse, their course became clear and they lost any compassion.
The growing doom consumed all their power to confront it.
Their immediate needs made them more intelligent than they had been before.
Their intelligence gave them less compassion than less intelligent others.
Answer: intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us. And early in the twentieth century came the great disillusionment.

How might Victor Frankestein's experiencing the death of his mother due to disease affect his feelings, his view of death, and his drive to understand the secrets of life?
Answer and Explanation:
The death of Victor's mother affects him tremendously. His mother died of scarlet fever and he can do nothing but watch her die little by little. This death showed him, how helpless he was in relation to life, as he could not control it. This encouraged Victor to look for a scientifically possible way to transform dead material into a living being. Perhaps, in the depths of his mind and heart, he hoped to be able to resuscitate his mother, or never need to watch someone loved die again.
This question is about the book "Frankestein" that shows how Victor Frankestein, a scientist obsessed with the ability to generate life, ends up generating a creature capable of doing great things for both good and evil.

Frederick Douglass was born into slavery in Maryland in approximately 1818. After several unsuccessful attempts, Douglass escaped from slavery and eventually settled in Massachusetts. In 1845, he wrote his first autobiography, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, which had a profound influence on the movement to abolish slavery. Harriet Jacobs was born in North Carolina in 1813. Like Douglass, Jacobs was born into slavery. She eventually escaped and settled in New York. Also like Douglass, she wrote an autobiography, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, which revealed the horrors of life under slavery. Both Douglass and Jacobs went on to become vocal supporters of the antislavery movement.

All families have traditions, either big or small ,that they keep alive each year. Write an essay to describe three traditions your family participates each year. Someone please write three paragraphs using christmas, thanksgiving, and easter
Answer:
I love family traditions. They were very important to me growing up. I remember being very proud to tell my friends that our family always had grandma's stuffing for Thanksgiving, went camping every summer, or had burgers every Saturday. I especially counted on the holidays being the same each year - doing the same things and serving the same foods. It was comforting to me and helped ground me in my place in the world.
As an adult I think back on the things I looked forward to each year, our traditions, with a fondness that helps me remember and appreciate my family - even those who are long gone.But beyond how it makes me or my family feel, why are these seemingly little things we do together regularly as a family important?
Explanation:
Answer:
Usually a week or so in advance, my family and I get a Christmas Tree and decorate it. Then, a day or two before Christmas day, we go to the mall to do our Christmas shopping. My mom and I usually do this seperately, as to not spoil the surprises we have for each other! Then, on Christmas Day, we make breakfast and give each other the gifts we got for one another. Then, we have a huge feast!
For Thanksgiving we spend the whole day cooking and preparing food for Thanksgiving Dinner. We make things like Mac n' Cheese, Cranberry Sauce, and of course, turkey! Once everything is prepared, we sit down at the table and say Grace and say the things that we're thankful for. Then, we chow down and eat!
For Easter, it's about the same with Thanksgiving. Except we stuff ourselves with candy the whole day! My mom gets an Easter Basket from the store and fills it up to the brim with candy! And while we gorge ourselves on chocolate, my dad makes lamb ribs and Mac n' Cheese. As with Thanksgiving, we say our grace and eat our food.

Explanation:
Read the following excerpt from "Why I Wrote 'The Passage'" and answer the question that follows.
|Once Monty existed, the story mostly told itself, as stories often do if you get out of| |the way and let them. The games in the story--Life, Risk, Monopoly, checkers--come| |from "Man in the Moon" (track 10), as does the name Andi; the Northwest Passage| |from "Find the River" (track 12); the final moment in some complicated sense |
|from "Sweetness Follows" (track 6). All this I understand. What puzzles me is why my| |mind went back to that day in the spring of fifth grade--why that moment? That's a | |mystery. But here's a guess: it had something to do with that laugh, my friend turning| |around to correct me, my ten-year-old self still needing to make things right in some| |quiet way. Writing is useful at these times. Here, you sometimes say to a younger| |version of you, take this--it will help.|
What lesson can other writers learn from Martin and his writing of "The Passage?"
The best thing a writer can do is plan out every aspect of the story.
Writing can be a powerful experience to work through struggles in life.
The only way to write a good story is to use an event from your childhood.
Basing a story on music is a great way to get ideas flowing.
Answer:
I think the answer is "Writing can be a powerful experience to work through struggles"
Explanation:
All his examples seem to be depictions of being able to digest something that was easy for him to comprehend, but his one memory that sticks with him is one that had a impact on him, and his emotions in a way he couldn't seem to figure out. With his statement of "Writing is useful at these times" makes me think that he wished he had some form of outlet to confess confusing thoughts/feelings too.
This is just my interpretation, and what I think the teacher might be looking for. I hope this helps, I'm really sorry if it doesn't . Good Luck!
