Three young men are walking together to a wedding, when one of them is detained by a grizzled old sailor. The young Wedding-Guest angrily demands that the Mariner let go of him, and the Mariner obeys. But the young man is transfixed by the ancient Mariner’s “glittering eye” and can do nothing but sit on a stone and listen to his strange tale. The Mariner says that he sailed on a ship out of his native harbor—”below the kirk, below the hill, / Below the lighthouse top”—and into a sunny and cheerful sea. Hearing bassoon music drifting from the direction of the wedding, the Wedding-Guest imagines that the bride has entered the hall, but he is still helpless to tear himself from the Mariner’s story. The Mariner recalls that the voyage quickly darkened, as a giant storm rose up in the sea and chased the ship southward. Quickly, the ship came to a frigid land “of mist and snow,” where “ice, mast-high, came floating by”; the ship was hemmed inside this maze of ice. But then the sailors encountered an Albatross, a great sea bird. As it flew around the ship, the ice cracked and split, and a wind from the south propelled the ship out of the frigid regions, into a foggy stretch of water. The Albatross followed behind it, a symbol of good luck to the sailors. A pained look crosses the Mariner’s face, and the Wedding-Guest asks him, “Why look’st thou so?” The Mariner confesses that he shot and killed the Albatross with his crossbow
(1)Many animals, including some insects, use visual clues to find their way. (2)For example, the female digger wasp lays eggs in a burrow in the soil. (3)She then flies off to capture her prey, which she stores in the burrow to feed her offspring when they hatch. (4)The famous animal-behavior scientist Niko Tinbergen studied the cues used by the female to relocate her burrow. (5)While the female was inside, Tinbergen surrounded the nest with pine cones. (6)When the wasp emerged, she flew around the nest before departing. (7)While she was gone, Tinbergen moved the cones about a foot away. (8)The returning wasp still sought her nest within the ring of cones. (9)Although the nest was in plain sight nearby, she was unable to locate it because the visual landmarks on which she relied had been shifted.
(10)Birds may also use landmarks, such as rivers and seashores, to find their way. (11)Several species migrate at night or over large expanses of ocean, using the position of the sun or stars to tell direction. (12)Many species seem to have genetically programmed information about the direction of the sun at various times of day, and also possess a biological clock that measures off a roughly twenty-four-hour day. (13)Other birds have the remarkable ability to “read” the night sky. (14)Indigo buntings, for example, seem to have a built-in star map that enables them to find which direction is north, during spring migration, by looking at the stars.
Question7. To find their way, birds may use
a. rivers and seashores.
b. the position of the sun.
c. the position of the stars.
d. all of the above.
To find their way, birds may use D. all of the above.
What exactly are context clues?Context clues help us figure out what a word means by allowing us to infer the meaning from the words around it. Other words in the same sentence describe or define these words, which are also known as visual indices.
This means they help infer the meaning of unknown words by using nearby words, thereby increasing vocabulary and assisting in the interpretation and understanding of a message or concept.
Niko Tinbergen, a well-known animal-behavior scientist, studied the female's cues for relocating her burrow. Tinbergen surrounded the nest with pine cones while the female was inside.
In this case, birds can use rivers and seashores, the position of the sun, the position of the stars.
Therefore, the correct option is D.

At what point does this passage from “The Zoo” shift into a flashback? The manticores looked miserable. She wondered if it was because of the heat. They had human faces, or almost human, and sleek lion bodies, but they were so hot and tired-looking that Emily wondered if they would die soon. Her mother flinched every time the phone rang. Together they watched 24-hour news channels that told how hot it was in Tikrit and Baghdad and Fallujah, places Emily pinned on a map. She wondered how hot it was here, if they were keeping it so hot to make the manticores feel at home, but then she thought they must have overdone it, or maybe it was the humidity here, because the manticores looked on the verge of death.
A. with Emily wondering how hot it was in Iraq
B. with the description of the manticores C. with the return of Emily’s focus to the manticores
D. with Emily’s mother flinching when the phone rang
The point in this passage from “The Zoo” that shifts into a flashback is this:
C With Emily’s mother flinching when the phone rang
What is a flashback?Flashback is the ability to have a mental recollection of something that happens in the past. In the example above, we can see that Emily's mother always had a flashback that made her jolt when the phone rang. Emily's mother probably had a mental recollection of something in the past that kept on affecting her negatively. When people have flashbacks, they could react in different ways.
Some people will be happy if the event was a memorable one or they could be sad if the event reminds them of something negative. In the case of Emily's mother above, we can see that she was negatively affected by what she suffered and this made her have a negative reaction to it. So, option C aptly describes the example of a flashback in the story.

Read the passage from Lord of the Flies by William Golding.
He passed his tongue across dry lips and scanned the uncommunicative forest. Then again he stole forward and cast this way and that over the ground.
The silence of the forest was more oppressive than the heat, and at this hour of the day there was not even the whine of insects. Only when Jack himself roused a gaudy bird from a primitive nest of sticks was the silence shattered and echoes set ringing by a harsh cry that seemed to come out of the abyss of ages. Jack himself shrank at this cry with a hiss of indrawn breath, and for a minute became less a hunter than a furtive thing, ape-like among the tangle of trees. Then the trail, the frustration, claimed him again and he searched the ground avidly.
What is the universal theme of this passage?
the tension between truth and illusion
the relationship between violence and human nature
the relationship between civilization and nature
the conflict between an individual’s desires and the community’s needs
Answer: C) The relationship between civilization and nature
Explanation:
Lord of the Flies is a novel about a group boys that were stranded on an island. Completely disconnected from society, they are forced to adapt to living in the wild.
Jack, in this scene, is hunting. He is trying to find familiarity in this new way of living, but ultimately is frightened by the sounds of the forest and the crying of the bird he accidentally disturbs. He becomes frustrated and flustered.
This scene shows how they boys are trying to adapt to this new world and how the tendencies they had when living in civilization become their flaws in nature as they learn to navigate the wild.
(1)Many animals, including some insects, use visual clues to find their way. (2)For example, the female digger wasp lays eggs in a burrow in the soil. (3)She then flies off to capture her prey, which she stores in the burrow to feed her offspring when they hatch. (4)The famous animal-behavior scientist Niko Tinbergen studied the cues used by the female to relocate her burrow. (5)While the female was inside, Tinbergen surrounded the nest with pine cones. (6)When the wasp emerged, she flew around the nest before departing. (7)While she was gone, Tinbergen moved the cones about a foot away. (8)The returning wasp still sought her nest within the ring of cones. (9)Although the nest was in plain sight nearby, she was unable to locate it because the visual landmarks on which she relied had been shifted.

(13)Other birds have the remarkable ability to “read” the night sky. (14)Indigo buntings, for example, seem to have a built-in star map that enables them to find which direction is north, during spring migration, by looking at the stars.
Question8. The digger wasp used the pine cones as
a. protection.
b. food.
c. a way to attract a mate.
d. a marker by which to find her nest.
The inference is that the digger wasp used the pine cones as A. protection.
What is an inference?Inferences are steps in reasoning that move from premises to logical consequences; the word infer is etymologically related to "carry forward."
An inference is a conclusion reached through evidence and reasoning.
Writers frequently reveal more than they say directly. They provide hints or clues that allow you to "read between the lines." Inferring is the process of using these clues to gain a deeper understanding of your reading.
Niko Tinbergen, a well-known animal-behavior scientist, studied the female's cues for relocating her burrow. Tinbergen surrounded the nest with pine cones while the female was inside.
It should be noted that in this scenario, this narrator spoke about how the cone was used for the protection of the nest by the digger wasp.

A) in order to keep the prices of his cars low.
B) because he wanted to incorporate the latest engineering and safety features in his
cars.
C) in order to encourage consumers to trade in their cars frequently.
D) because Ford had done so first.
a) The twentieth century saw a lot of developments in the manufacturing industry.
First, by inventing the automated assembly line in 1913 at the age of 50, Henry Ford transformed American manufacturing. Ford then instituted a $5 daily minimum salary in 1914. To persuade drivers to switch in their outdated models for newer ones with flashier styling, a new model—the yearly model change—was introduced in 1927. Sloan also created the concept of "classes" for automobiles, which categorized vehicles based on their status, cost, and level of luxury. Chevrolets were less priced than Buicks or Cadillacs, according to this system. In 1919, the country's first national consumer credit organization was established to help people afford autos. Sloan demonstrated the value of retailing in the contemporary consumer society, just as Henry Ford had done with mass production.
These are the significant manufacturing changes that occurred during the 20th century.

O B. 2
O C. 3

The sentence that is not logically connected to the paragraph is number 4, 'Someone yelled, "It tells me that if I drink soft drinks I'll never have worms!"'
What is logic?Among other definitions, logic may refer to our capacity and ability to reason in a way that makes sense, by connecting events, ideas or premises to reach a plausible conclusion.
That is why sentence 4 is not logically connected to the rest of the paragraph. The logical conclusion, after the teacher's demonstration, is that soft drinks are bad for living organisms and that we should not drink them. However, the students conclusion was illogical, especially because the kinds of worms used by the teacher were likely not the kind of worms we humans can have in our bodies. In any case, the students concluded soft drinks are good rather than bad.

What is the summary of "The lot"?
Translated by Richard Wilbur, Anna Akhmatova's enchanting poem, Lot's Wife, tells an ancient story passed down from generation to generation from the new perspective of Lot's wife. The Genesis story of Lot's family is told with little insight into the feelings and thoughts of those involved. In fact, the report reads more like a historical document than a story. As the biblical story unfolds, the reader is given facts about what happened, but no insight into the characters' feelings or thoughts is revealed. It is especially overlooked in this story, never to be told again, because it turned into a pillar of salt for disobedience. This poem offers a glimpse into the mind of this unnamed wife of Lot.

Cultural Expectations in The Sleeper and the Spindle
In “The Sleeper and the Spindle” by Neil Gaiman, the story illustrates cultural expectations and values that are displayed in our society, as well as other societies. Even though they are fiction, fairy tales like “The Sleeper and the Spindle”, by Neil Gaiman, often reflect the cultural expectations and values of the time and place they were created in.
Neil Gaiman’s fairy tale, “The Sleeper and the Spindle”, focuses on a queen who is determined to save her kingdom, even if it means facing a curse that had once been bestowed onto her (Gaiman 52). Gaiman uses well known elements of classic fairy tales, such as a curse (Gaiman 18), the damsel in distress (Gaiman 33), and the expected heroic quest (Gaiman 66). Gaiman subverts these classic fairy tale elements to create a story that is unique, and a story that challenges known cultural expectations and elements. The queen represents many women in past, and present societies. “She wondered how she would feel to be a married woman. It would be the end of her life, she decided,” (Gaiman 14). The queen, like many other women in different cultures and societies, wants nothing to do with her predetermined, and unconsenting future as a married woman. ‘“You do know we’re heading east, don’t you?” said one of the drawfs. “Oh yes,” said the queen.’ (Gaiman 66). The queen chooses adventure and her friends over a traditional married life that is represented and seen in many well-known fairy tales.
Neil Gaiman challenges traditional gender roles by having the queen reflect heroic characteristics, be the one who defeats the villain, and the one who saves her kingdom (Gaiman 66). Fairy tales are often seen reflecting and illustrating the cultural expectations and values of many societies. In some cases, those cultural expectations and values are still relevant, and can still be seen today. “The Sleeper and the Spindle”, by Neil Gaiman is one of many different variations of “Cinderella”, originally written by Charles Perrault, which challenges many cultural expectations and values. Neil Gaiman’s fairy tale reflects cultural values such as feminism, independence, and kindness. These values however, are not as prevalent in the original “Cinderella” story, or any fairy tale with a female protagonist in the story.

The queen represents many women in past and present societies. “She wondered how she would feel to be a married woman. It would be the end of her life, she decided” (Gaiman 14). Like many other women in different cultures and societies, the queen wants nothing to do with her predetermined, unconsenting future as a married woman. ‘“You do know we’re heading east, don’t you?” said one of the draws. “Oh yes,” said the queen.’ (Gaiman 66). The queen chooses adventure and her friends over a traditional married life, represented and seen in many well-known fairy tales.
Neil Gaiman challenges traditional gender roles by having the queen reflect heroic characteristics, be the one who defeats the villain, and the one who saves her kingdom (Gaiman 66). Fairy tales often reflect and illustrate the cultural expectations and values of many societies. In some cases, those cultural expectations and values are still relevant, and can still be seen today. “The Sleeper and the Spindle”, by Neil Gaiman is one of many different variations of “Cinderella”, originally written by Charles Perrault, which challenges many cultural expectations and values. Neil Gaiman’s fairy tale reflects cultural values such as feminism, independence, and kindness. These values, however, are not as prevalent in the original “Cinderella” story, or any fairy tale with a female protagonist in the story.

(1)Many animals, including some insects, use visual clues to find their way. (2)For example, the female digger wasp lays eggs in a burrow in the soil. (3)She then flies off to capture her prey, which she stores in the burrow to feed her offspring when they hatch. (4)The famous animal-behavior scientist Niko Tinbergen studied the cues used by the female to relocate her burrow. (5)While the female was inside, Tinbergen surrounded the nest with pine cones. (6)When the wasp emerged, she flew around the nest before departing. (7)While she was gone, Tinbergen moved the cones about a foot away. (8)The returning wasp still sought her nest within the ring of cones. (9)Although the nest was in plain sight nearby, she was unable to locate it because the visual landmarks on which she relied had been shifted.
(10)Birds may also use landmarks, such as rivers and seashores, to find their way. (11)Several species migrate at night or over large expanses of ocean, using the position of the sun or stars to tell direction. (12)Many species seem to have genetically programmed information about the direction of the sun at various times of day, and also possess a biological clock that measures off a roughly twenty-four-hour day.
