Flowers for Algernon question
How is an IQ defined by the various characters (April 21)?
Answer and Explanation:
In "Flowers for Algernon," the main character is Charlie Gordon, a man who undergoes surgery to improve his intelligence. Before the procedure, Charlie's I.Q. was 68. At a certain point in the story, three different doctors try to explain to Charlie what I.Q. is, but they have different opinions on the matter.
Dr. Nemur says the I.Q. of a person shows how smart that person is. Dr. Strauss, on the other hand, claims that Dr. Nemur is wrong, and that an I.Q. shows how smart a person can get. That it is like the numbers written on a measuring cup - we still need to fill the cup with something. Confused, Charlie talks to Dr. Burt, who says the other two doctors could be wrong. According to Burt, I.Q. can measure several different things, including things a person has already learned, but it is not a good measure for intelligence.

Explanation:
Compare and contrast the Frankenstein novel and Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner in terms of narrative voice , theme and literary techniques.
Answer and Explanation:
In relation to the narrative voice, while "Ancient Mariner" presents the mariner himself as one who recounts his sufferings and misfortunes, "Frankenstein" presents both Victor and the acronym as a narrative voice, showing the point of view of both and allowing the reader to understand the creature's suffering told by itself.
The themes between the two works are similar, as they show the suffering of the human being as a result of his flawed acts. However, "Frankenstein" also presents the suffering created by human hypocrisy and superficiality in relation to physical appearances.
As literary techniques both works present a strong symbolism and allegories to present their theme and development. "Frankestein" also makes a strong use of foreshadowing, advancing information to the reader and allusions making the narrative more dynamic.

THESIS: Free breakfast should be provided for students in middle school.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Studies show that many students either don't eat enough, or don't eat healthy foods. Studies also show that students who have healthy diets perform better at school.
Answer:
Question hook: How would you feel if you had to go to school every day and learn in an empty stomach?
Anecdote hook: The first time I decided to get breakfast at school they told me I had to pay. I had no problem doing this but then my mind wondered about all the other kids that can’t afford it.
Imagery hook: Your family is just getting by. Your mother is working two jobs and you dad isn’t around. No one is there to make you breakfast so you decide to eat it at school but you can’t because of your family's financial struggles. This is the reality of many middle school children.
Answer:
Question hook: Would you like to go to school with an empty stomach?
Anecdote hook: When I am hungry, I can’t focus on anything, let alone learning or studying. I can’t imagine what it must be like for kids who go to school hungry every day.
Imagery hook: Your stomach makes a thunderous roar that echos through the entire classroom. You try to focus on the teacher, but all you can hear is the constant ticking of the slow-moving clock. All you want is to hear the crunch of the delicious apple in your mouth and the satisfaction of a full stomach.

Toni knows that over half of the students in her class are nursing or allied health majors. She is a biology major, so she decides to give her informative speech on the history of the discovery of DNA. Has she made a good decision? A. No, she has stereotyped them as all being heavily interested in science. B. Yes, she has picked a very applicable topic for the audience. C. Maybe, but she should think about other characteristics of the audience, too. D. None of the above.
Answer:
Has Toni made a good decision?
C. Maybe, but she should think about other characteristics of the audience, too.
Explanation:
Toni's decision is not exactly wrong. We can actually say it is a bit too safe. She has chosen a topic that is indeed related to health and that might be seen as interesting by people who study anything that is also related to health. However, she should consider her audience a bit more deeply. Perhaps she could talk to some people in order to come up with a topic that is more useful, or even more entertaining. As a matter of fact, the history of the discovery of DNA is something that most of them are likely to know already.
