Select the correct text in the passage. Read this excerpt from the Japanese declaration of war. Which sentence or phrase conveys a tone of frustration? Although there has been reestablished the National Government of China, with which Japan had effected neighborly intercourse and cooperation, the regime which has survived in Chungking, relying upon American and British protection, still continues its fratricidal opposition. Eager for the realization of their inordinate ambition to dominate the Orient, both America and Britain, giving support to the Chungking regime, have aggravated the disturbances in East Asia. Moreover these two Powers, inducing other countries to follow suit, increased military preparations on all sides of Our Empire to challenge Us. They have obstructed by every means Our peaceful commerce and finally resorted to a direct severance of economic relations, menacing gravely the existence of Our Empire. Patiently have We waited and long have We endured, in the hope that Our government might retrieve the situation in peace.

Answer:

"They have obstructed by every means Our peaceful commerce and finally resorted to a direct severance of economic relations, menacing gravely the existence of Our Empire. Patiently have We waited and long have We endured, in the hope that Our government might retrieve the situation in peace."

Explanation:

Also:

The words "fratricidal opposition" and "aggravated the disturbances"

The word choice suggests that the narrator is tired of waiting and just wants peace. The words in bold really add to the frustrated tone.

In the conversation between Phillip and Mrs. Narwin, why do you think Phillip seems to be mad at Mrs. Narwin? (Your answer should be a minimum of 2 complete sentences.)

When the two boys were going to high school, Ernest often came over in the evening to study with Claude, and while they worked at the
long kitchen table Mrs. Wheeler brought her darning and sat near them, helping them with their Latin and
algebra. Even old Mahalley was
enlightened by their words of wisdom.
Mrs. Wheeler sald she would never forget the night Ernest arrived from the Old Country. His brother, Joe Havel, had gone to Frankfort to
meet him, and was to stop on the way home and leave some groceries for the Wheelers. The train from the east was late; It was ten o'clock that
night when Mrs. Wheeler, walting in the kitchen, heard Havel's wagon rumble across the little bridge over Lovely Creek. She opened the outside
door, and presently Joe came in with a bucket of salt fish in one hand and a sack of flour on his shoulder. While he took the fish down to the cellar
for her, another figure appeared in the doorway, a young boy, short, stooped, with a flat cap on his head and a great oilcloth valise, such as
pedlars carry, strapped to his back. He had fallen asleep in the wagon, and on waking and finding his brother gone, he had supposed they were at
home and scrambled for his pack. He stood in the doorway, blinking his eyes at the light, looking astonished but eager to do whatever was
required of him. What If one of her own boys, Mrs. Wheeler thought... She went up to him and put her arm around him, laughing a little and
saying in her quiet volce, just as if he could understand her, "Why, you're only a little boy after all, aren't you?"
Ernest said afterwards that it was his first welcome to this country, though he had travelled so far, and had been pushed and hauled and
shouted at for so many days, he had lost count of them. That night he and Claude only shook hands and looked at each other suspiciously, but
ever since they had been good friends.
Which best describes Mrs. Wheeler's relationship with Ernest?

1.
She intends to keep him busy, like an employer.

2. She feels tender and protective toward him, like a mother,

3.She hopes that she can be a good companion to him, like a sister.

4. She believes it is her responsibinty to educate him, like a teacher.

Read the excerpt from the article Amazing Plants:

There are a surprising number of plants that are carnivorous, or feed on meat. One of the most well-known carnivorous plants is the Venus flytrap. This carnivore lives in warm, swampy areas where it feeds on flies and any other insect unfortunate enough to land on one of its round, spiky leaves. The leaves are motion-sensitive, and the slightest touch causes a leaf to snap shut, trapping the prey behind a prison of spikes.

Pitcher plants are another quiet carnivore. The plants are long, pitcher-like tube shapes, with wide bottoms full of water to catch and digest their prey. Pitcher plants use different strategies to attract prey. Some give off sweet smells, while others produce nectar. Pitchers have been known to consume anything from insects to small lizards and rodents.

Read the article Trapped by a Predator:

When I was 12, I went on vacation to the Wilmington, North Carolina area. While there, my family and I went on a hike in the Croatan National Forest, a true coastal forest that is bordered on three sides by water. As I traversed the boardwalk, I caught a glimpse of something pink in my peripheral vision. I stopped and bent down to inspect the mysterious looking specimen. It had long, sharp-looking white teeth and a large, pink mouth. Upon closer inspection, I noticed little droplets of liquid around the rim. Inside its mouth, there were six tiny hairs, three on the top and three on the bottom. While I was examining the unknown object, I saw a fly zoom in and land inside the mouth. I observed as it wandered around the reddish-pink, fleshy surface and brushed against one of the hairs. What happened next seemed like something out of a horror story. All of a sudden, the mouth snapped shut, and the teeth made a prison, trapping the poor fly inside. I witnessed the fly fighting against the spiky teeth, trying to escape, but it was an unsuccessful struggle. When my mother caught up to me on the path, I showed her the slayer, and she explained that the fly eater was the plant called a Venus flytrap. In that moment, I wanted to learn more about this carnivorous flora.

I became a botanist because of that first encounter with the predatory plant. Over the years, I learned so much more about the Dionaea muscipula, better known as the Venus flytrap. For example, the liquid around the rim of its "mouth" is actually a sweet nectar that lures prey. In addition, the six tiny hairs, called trichomes, are like little sensory time bombs. This means when an insect touches a trichome, a timer is set for 20 seconds. If there is a second touch within the 20-second period, the mouth clamps down and traps the prey. The third movement signals the plant's digestive juices to start breaking down the insect. In about ten days, the Venus flytrap reopens and any part of the insect that didn't get digested falls out. It is an amazing process!

Because of my experience in North Carolina all those years ago, I decided to become a botanist and specialize in carnivorous plants. I have studied pitcher plants, sundews, water wheels, cobra lilies, and more. I never bore learning about the different traps, like suction traps and sticky traps, that carnivorous plants use to snare their prey. In fact, you could say I was trapped by the Venus flytrap, that meat-eating predator, when I first laid eyes on it.

An account of a fly being eaten

Read the excerpt from the article Amazing Plants:

Is that a bee? No! It's just an orchid with a very clever disguise. The bee orchid's flowers have evolved to look just like the bees that pollinate them. Thinking they are approaching another bee, the insects land on the flowers and become covered in pollen, which they can then carry to the next flower.

What does the phrase clever disguise suggest about the bee orchid?


It is unsuccessful at mimicking something else to get what it wants.

It changes its shape when bees come by in order to attract them.

It successfully resembles something else in order to get what it wants.

It works hard to develop new disguises to attract other bee orchids.
