Read an excerpt from Justice Sonia Sotomayor's New York University 2012
Commencement Address:
Finally, the last emotion I've experienced has been the joy
of engagement. It's a hackneyed statement, but life is not a
spectator sport. To squeeze from life its fullness, to be
happy in this world in the short period of time we are given,
to find meaning in life, you have to be active and giving
members of your communities. Neither your life nor the
world you live in just happens. You control the quality of
your lives and your communities. It is only in giving to
others that you can find meaning and satisfaction in what
you do
What does Sotomayor use to introduce her discussion on the joy of
engagement?
O A. A statement that happiness should not be a life goal
O B. A comparison of two people's lives
O C. A metaphor about getting involved
O D. A suggestion that life has to be spontaneous
Answer:
O C. A metaphor about getting involved .
Explanation:
Justice Sonia Sotomayor was conferred a Doctor of Law degree, honoris causa, by the NYU on May 16. And she gave her speech at the 180th Commencement held at the Yankee Stadium.
In this speech, she recounts how life is all about taking challenges and getting involved in them. She went on to express her happiness on being conferred the degree while at the same time, she felt grateful to those who had awarded her. She also used a metaphor to talk about how getting involved in life is one of the most interesting and intriguing things in life. Her statement that "life is not a spectator sport" shows her own dedication to getting involved in life's challenges and tackling whatever obstacles that may come in the way.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
In American history, immigration has played an integral role in society. In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, first-generation immigrants who came to the United States often dealt with language and social barriers. In the late twentieth century, second- and third-generation immigrants faced the challenge of following their traditional heritage and fitting into American society.
1. Consider how cultural diversity defines American society and literature. Is the American identity static or fluid over time?
Answer:
American identity is fluid over time because as time goes by identities change, technology and social media have a role in that. Social media plays a part in people modifying their traditions or starting new traditions. Your cultural identity can be defined by your ethnicity, nationality, and race. It can also be defined by your religion and the area you live in.

appropriate for an essay about the importance of eating a healthful diet?
A. Longevity is linked to a good diet.
O B. Eating well helps you maintain high energy and a clearer focus
during the workday.
C. When you eat well, your body is better able to fight off illnesses.
D. Carrot cake is my favorite healthful snack.
SUBMIT
Answer:
D. Carrot cake is my favourite healthful snack.
Explanation:
The other options have a wider selection of points to stream through during the essay, such as highlighting the importance of keeping a balanced diet between different food selections and how diversity plays a large role of importance when it comes to health (such as wholegrains, healthy fats/ sugars, and protein). Carrot cake being a favorite healthful snack is a very narrow topic with very few implications toward extending into other points as the others. It bases off of a fraction of an Healthy Eating plate and is tough to stem from. It may also become irrelevant compared to the sources and evidence you can provide with the other options about the positive influence eating healthy has.

Messenger:
For Creon, in my view, was once a man
we all looked up to.
Which characteristic of tragedy do the messenger's words reveal?
a tragic character's reversal of fortune
causal relationships that make up the tragic structure
the spectacle associated with Aristotle's tragic definition
the triumph of a tragic character
Answer:
A tragic character's reversal of fortune.
Explanation:
"Antigone" by Sophocles revolves around the tragic story of the protagonist Antigone whose act of defying the king's order and burying her brother led to her death. The play delves into the themes of family over everything else, the loyalty of family, the need to preserve it, and the various power dynamics in the society.
The given speech by the messenger is from the scene after the deaths of many of the characters. The messenger reveals that Creon's son Haimon had also died leaving only Creon and Ismene alive. The messenger's way of putting his words, describing Creon as "once a man we all looked up to" reveals a change in that person, i.e. Creon. The use of "once" suggests that whatever that was is in the past and now, that person is changed or different.
So, the messenger's words reveal the reversal of fortune of the character of Creon, the tragic character.
Answer: A.) tragic character's reversal of fortune.

There (is/are) in our deepest nightmares a silent monster waiting for its next victim.
Answer:
Explanation:
Not sure what the question is but if your looking for clarification then here. People think dream on or dream big but in reality, things just sometimes don't work out. That's why there is fear in everything done. Our biggest fear is really not meaning anything to the world and that is our silent monster. If you let fear conquer you, then you've become the next victim. Always believe in a bigger greater reality and it comes into play. Einstein once said: " Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one." Just learn to out beat your reality and you'll be fine. We as humans only have access to 10% of our minds. Imagine what we would be capable of with 100%. Just let that soak.
Answer:

Explanation:
The verb (is) must agree with the subject (monster).
Don't fall for the trap in thinking that "nightmares' is the subject simply because is follows closely behind the verb.

What is most likely Mr. White's final wish?
O A. To get revenge on the fakir
B. To undo his wish to bring his son back to life
O C. To go back in time and never make the first wish
O D. To end his own suffering in death
Answer:
B. To undo his wish to bring his son back to life.
Explanation:
The Monkey's Paw by W. W. Jacobs is a short story that tells of how a family acquired a 'magical' monkey's paw from India that can make their three wishes come true. This story deals with the themes of death, faith, supernatural belief, and the issue of an Oriental artifact.
Mr. White had acquired the monkey's paw from a friend of his who told them about the special spell it was put on by a fakir in India. An with this paw, they had their two wishes granted (first was to get two hundred pounds and the second was to wish their son would come back alive), though at the cost of their son's life. The third wish was still left when they heard a scraping sound coming from the front door. It was their dead son at which the old man got frantic about wishing his final wish. And just in time before the door was opened, he made his final wish which stopped all the commotion at the door and the street was quiet. So, his final wish must have been to wish that he had not wished for his son's return from the dead and to undo the second wish.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.

What do you do if you mix up your tenses in a sentence
Answer:
There are many ways to go about this. The common tense rule is this: The tenses of verbs in a sentence must be consistent when the actions happen at the same time. When dealing with actions that occur at different points in time, however, we can – and probably should – use multiple tenses in the same sentence.

Read the paragraph from "Wilson's War Message to Congress." Neutrality is no longer feasible or desirable where the peace of the world is involved and the freedom of its peoples, and the menace to that peace and freedom lies in the existence of autocratic governments backed by organized force which is controlled wholly by their will, not by the will of their people. We have seen the last of neutrality in such circumstances. Which statement best describes the main idea of the paragraph?
Answer:
A. Our country can no longer refuse involvement because it can not allow freedom and peace to be at risk.
Explanation:
This excerpt from, "Wilson's War Message to Congress," is clearly discouraging neutrality. Neutrality is the act of not being involved or taking sides in a dispute. Wilson explained that in a world where some governments have made themselves autocratic, thus stifling peace and freedom of citizens, it would be wrong to be neutral, not making efforts to salvage the situation.
Wilson in this paragraph encouraged participation in governance so that citizens can resist actions from the government that are autocratic in nature.
After reading the passage from "Wilson's War Message to Congress," we can say that the option that best describes its main idea is the following:
A. Our country can no longer refuse involvement because it can not allow freedom and peace to be at risk.
The excerpt we are analyzing here was taken from the speech given by President Woodrow Wilson before the Congress in 1917.
The purpose of the speech is to explain why the United States will no longer remain neutral while war rages in Europe.
In the passage, Wilson claims that neutrality is no longer possible because the peace of Americans is being threatened.
With that in mind, we can say that option A is the best one. It also says that the country has to get involved (abandon neutrality) because freedom and peace are at risk.

But I always thought the best part of it was at her canonization the guy who killed her, after doing twenty-seven years in prison, received communion side by side with Maria Goretti's mother. Isn't that weird? That amount of goodness? Quote analysis
The quotation refers to the canonization of the young Maria Goretti who was brutally murdered at the age of 11, when she refused to lie down and have sex with a man who tried to r4p3 her. Maria Goretti fought against his attacker while shouting that he would rather die than practice this sin, which caused his attacker to deliver 11 knife blows against the girl who struck his vital organs and caused his death. Because of her courage to protect her chastity and turn away from sin even in such a violent moment, she was canonized. As Christian principles say that every being who serves God must forgive his enemies and those who do him wrong, people believed that Mary had forgiven her attacker and therefore would like him to observe his canonization with her mother.
The quote questions if this was not too much. And if her killer should even receive this act of human compassion. Even canonized Maria Goretti was a human being who did not wish to die so violently, moreover, this act of kindness and Christian faith may have provided a very frustrating and traumatic moment for Maria's mother who had to accompany the ceremony alongside someone who did her daughter so badly.
