Read the following passage carefully before you choose your answers.
This passage is excerpted from a novel first published in 2006.
I sat watching my mum wash our clothes in a hill stream. She beat the dirt out against a smooth rock, then soaked the bruised cloth in the water, shook it out, and let it float.
I had been keeping my distance. It was my way of punishing her for having been rude to Mr. Watts. Now I thought of another way of getting at her. I took aim at the back of her head and asked her if she missed my dad. No angry look flashed over her shoulder, which is what I had expected. No. What happened was her hands became busier. So did her shoulders.
“Why do you ask, girl?”
I shrugged, but of course she didn’t see that. A new silence was about to open up between us.
“Sometimes,” she added. “Sometimes I will look up and see the jungle part, and there is your father, Matilda. And he is walking towards me.”
“And me?”
She dropped the washing and turned to me.
“And you. Yes. Your father is walking towards us both. And then I have memories.”
“Which are?”
“No blimmin’ use,” she said. “That’s what they are. But since you ask, I do remember back when the mine was open and your father was in court on a disorderly charge.”
I didn’t know any of this, and yet her tone of voice suggested my father’s misdemeanor was no worse, say, than his forgetting to bring her something home from Arawa. His court appearance was no more calamitous than an instant of forgetfulness. This is what she wished me to believe. But I didn’t. I wished she hadn’t told me. There was more.
“I remember how soft and red his face looked,” she said. “How very sorry in a pray-to-God-I-am-sorry sort of way. Well, I remember looking out the window of the courthouse. I saw an airplane draw a white line in the sky, and at the same time a coconut fell past the window. For a moment, I did not know which one to look at, eh—at that thing that was rising or the thing that was falling.”
She pushed off her knees and stood up so she could look at me.
“If you really must know, Matilda, I didn’t know if I was looking at a bad man or a man who loved me.”
I was hearing more than I wanted. This was adult talk. And because she was watching me carefully I knew she had caught up with that thought.
“I miss sea horses too,” she said more brightly. “You will never find a more wise eye anywhere than in a sea horse. This is true. I made that discovery when I was younger than you. And I discovered something about parrot fish. They stare at you in their hundreds and actually remember you from the day before and the day before that one.”
“That’s a lie.” I laughed.
“No,” she said. “It’s true.” She held her breath, and so did I, and she was the first to burst out laughing.
Now that I had met Miss Havisham, and knew more about her unhappy past, I had changed my mind about my mum being like Pip’s sister.1 She had more in common with Miss Havisham—Miss Havisham who cannot move on from the day of her greatest disappointment. On the clock, the exact hour and minute that the bridegroom failed to show. The wedding feast untouched, left for the cobwebs to mark time.
Miss Havisham remains in her wedding gown for an event that has been and gone. I had an idea my mum was stuck in a similar moment. Only it had to do with an argument with my dad. Her frown gave her away. A frown that could be traced back to the original moment. I had an idea that whatever my dad had said still rang in her ears.
In the context of the passage as a whole, the narrator is best described as a reader who
A fantasizes about escaping her boring day-to-day existence
B is passionate about sharing the stories she reads with others
C feels superior to others who have not been exposed to literature
D uses the stories she reads to help contextualize her own experience
E struggles to understand the complicated plots in difficult texts
Answer:
the answer is B because of the answer in it is B is passionate about sharing the stories she reads with other
Identify the underlined clauses either as subordinate or independent. 1. Because he ran, he was able to catch the bus. subordintate Independent
Answer:
The question is not complete, as none of the clauses in the sentence are underlined, however, I will give you the type of each of the two clauses:
Because he ran: (subordinate clause)
he was able to catch the bus. (independent clause)
Explanation:
A clause is a part of a sentence, and a clause contains a verb.
Subordinate/dependent clauses are clauses that cannot stand alone when isolated from a sentence, and still make complete sense, instead, they help to give further meaning to the main/independent clause. In this case "Because he ran", is not a complete thought on its own, as it leads to asking the question "so what?"
Independent/main clauses can stand alone and still make sense. In this example "he was able to catch the bus" can stand alone and still make sense.

Why did the producers and director decide to have the girls run outside to the water during the climactic moments of Act Three?
The producers and directors decided to make the girls run into the water in the climactic moments of the third act to underscore the need to escape the city, puritanical society, and all the hysteria.
What does water represent in cinema and theater?Cure.Release.escape.Escapism.Freedom.The use of water and the girls' attempt to reach it are not presented in vain in the third act.
This is because it expresses the need for freedom and to escape from all the oppression and negativity that society and the region promotes.
By running to the water the girls express the tiredness of living within the puritanical society, in Salem, amidst the hysteria and the continuous accusations and their consequences.
This underscores the suffocating environment that Salem and its community create by acting completely irrationally. In this way, the directors emphasize the social criticism established in the work, about how an irrational society is suffocating, especially when this society believes in irrelevant stories created to provoke an unreal fear.

Answer:
The correct answer is option C. Barking and biting the air.
Explanation:
Here we can see an example of alliteration.
Alliteration is a rhetorical figure that consists of the repetition of sounds present in adjacent or nearby words.
It has the virtue of attracting attention and causing an effect of musicality and sound.
In simple terms, alliteration relates words that offer a partial identity of sounds to each other. If these are reproduced or are equivalent to other sounds or noise, an onomatopoeia occurs.
Read the excerpt from "A Quilt of a Country."
What is the point of this splintered whole? What is the point of a nation in which Arab cabbies chauffeur Jewish passengers through the streets of New York—and in which Jewish cabbies chauffeur Arab passengers, too, and yet speak in theory of hatred, one for the other?
In this excerpt, the use of the word splintered has which type of connotation?
positive
negative
abstract
neutral
Answer:
negative
Explanation:
The writer of the passage uses the word splintered as a negative word, trying to say that separation of the people by nationalistic ideas is bad and has no point.
He gives an example of Jewish and Arab people, who have had long-going intolerance towards one another because of historic events and social ideas. He says they are doing services for one another – in the example of one being the cab driver to another – while living in the same multi-cultural city of New York, yet they still use hateful expressions and ideas against each other.
This hatred is what splinters them and makes the gap between them. What the author tries to prove is no point in living in the global, multicultural environment where everyone encounters each other and help each other every day, while also speaking of hate. This theoretical separation and long tradition of hate is what splits and disintegrates people. This is why the word has a negative context.

B. Negative

Describe a time when something unexpected happened.
250 - 350 words.
Answer:
Jack shivered in the chilly November wind. He pulled his tattered clothing tightly around his emaciated body but the thin rags offered no protection against the biting cold. His stomach growled hungrily and he tried to remember the last time he had eaten a proper meal.
Ever since the terrible car accident, Jack had had a series of misfortunes. First, he had lost his left arm in the accident. With his disability, his boss had fired him from his job as he had been too inefficient. The unemployed man tried to apply for new jobs, but to no avail. All of his applications were declined due to his disability. To make matters worse, Jack had been kicked out of his home as he could no longer afford to pay the rent. Alone and without a roof over his head, Jack resorted to begging. The money he got was only enough to buy him a hot meal once every few days.
It had been almost six months of living life in poverty. Every day, Jack would sit along an alleyway, hopefully holding out a tin can. In winter, fewer people ventured out onto the streets and he knew that what he collected would not be enough to sustain him. Jack looked up at the sky, with tears blurring his vision and prayed, “God, please help me!” It was his last hope.
The next day, Jack was awakened by the sound of someone shouting. Bleary-eyed, Jack squinted and tried to see who was making the noise. A stout man with a long beard and baseball cap was standing along the alleyway with a large box beside him. “Lottery tickets! Grand prize of 5 million dollars! Try your luck today! Only five dollars for a ticket!”
Jack slowly limped out of the darkness of the alleyway and sat at his usual corner. He took out his tin can from a secret hole, looked around and waited. He man turned and saw Jack. “Hey! Why don’t you buy a ticket?” Jack looked at him and replied in a raspy voice, “I would if I could.”
The man scrutinized Jack and took in his tousled hair and tattered clothes. No wonder he could not afford a ticket! Sighing deeply, he took a ticket from his box and put it in an envelope. When Jack was sleeping, he quietly placed it in his tin can.
By the time Jack awoke, the man was already long gone. He peered into his can and to his surprise, he saw a white envelope amidst the small coins. His heart thumped wildly as his eyes lit up. “There must be something good in there!” Jack’s shoulders slumped in disappointment as he pulled out the lottery ticket. “I could never win the money. With my luck, the chances are too slim!” Nevertheless, he absent-mindedly tucked the ticket away in his pocket.
Over the next few days, there was news about the lottery. Apparently, the winner of the five million dollars had not stepped forward to claim his prize. It was the talk of the town. Jack heard about the news but he had forgotten about his ticket. He was too busy dreaming of food and a warm bed. Then, the man selling lottery tickets returned.
“Hey!” Jack exclaimed, “were you the one who gave me that lottery ticket?”
“Yes, sir. I thought that you deserved a chance to turn your luck around.” The man hesitated before passing Jack a newspaper. “Look at this! The winner has still not collected his prize!”
Jack squinted at the article which featured the winner number. Could he be the winner? He fumbled in his pocket for the crumpled ticket and put it beside the newspaper. Looking back and forth between the paper and the ticket, Jack could not believe his eyes. The numbers tallied! Just like that, he had become a millionaire. A tear of joy trickled down his gaunt face. “Thank you, God,” he whispered.
Six months later, the tables had turned. Jack had become a wealthy millionaire with a huge mansion lavishly decorated with antique furniture and priceless art. As he sat on his front porch, savouring the delicious meal his chef had prepared, he reflected on how far he had come. He was ever so grateful for the ticket. It had been an unexpected blessing indeed.
Hope this helps.
