Explanation:
Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.”
"Might drop on his head from the sky," said the frivolous Herbert.
"Morris said the things happened so naturally," said his father, "that you might if you so wished attribute it to coincidence."
"Well, don't break into the money before I come back," said Herbert as he rose from the table. "I'm afraid it'll turn you into a mean, avaricious man, and we shall have to disown you."
His mother laughed, and following him to the door, watched him down the road; and returning to the breakfast table, was very happy at the expense of her husband's credulity. All of which did not prevent her from scurrying to the door at the postman's knock, nor prevent her from referring somewhat shortly to retired sergeant-majors . . . when she found that the post brought a tailor's bill.
How does Mrs. White’s reaction to wishing on the monkey’s paw compare to Mr. White’s?
Mrs. White does not believe in the magic, but Mr. White does.
Mrs. White believes in the magic, but Mr. White does not.
They both believe in the magic.
Neither believes in the magic.
Answer:
They both believe in the magic.
Explanation:
The short story "The Monkey's Paw" by W. W. Jacobs revolves around the magical ability of a monkey's paw in fulfilling three wishes to its owner. The story relays the message the greed is never good for anyone, let alone bring people happiness.
Mr. White acquired the talisman from his friend Sergeant Major Morris who had got it during his time in India. And he believed that the talisman brings harm more than luck, and threw into the fire. But Mr. White took it out and decided to keep it for himself. This shows that he somehow believed in the magical ability of the monkey's paw. And like her husband, Mrs. White as well as their son Herbert also believed in the paw's magic. Their conversation about the "two hundred pounds" and their belief that it'll be granted shows their belief in the monkey's paw and its magical abilities.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
Answer:
C or They both believe in the magic.

ASAP I need a theme statement for shame. the story is fish cheeks. the story is about a chinese family inviting over a white family. the daughter had a crush on the boy and she was embarrassed about eating the chinese food in front of them. the white family didn’t seem to enjoy the food which made her feel even more embarrassed. when they left the mother said something like you wanna be american on the outside but you must always be chinese. your only shame is to have shame.
Answer and Explanation:
The theme of the text is to renounce oneself and one's own culture. We can see this, because the girl wants to hide the customs of her own culture, Chinese culture, out of shame in being herself in front of the boy she has a crush on.
Our culture builds and shapes our lives in many different ways. Our culture is literally linked to who we are and when we are ashamed of it, we are ashamed of ourselves, our origins and the elements that shape us.

5. When Juliet parts from Romeo, she has a frightening vision. In lines 54-56 Juliet says, "I have an ill-divining soul!/ Me thinks I see thee, now thou are so
low, as one dead in the bottom of a tomb." Why is this quote significant?
O A It foreshadows Tybalt's death
OB It shows that Juliet is a static character
OC It foreshadows the fatal future of their love
OD It serves as dramatic irony in the play
Answer:
C. It foreshadows the fatal future of their love
Explanation:
Foreshadowing is a literary device in which the author gives us hints about what is going to happen later in the story. In literature, visions are often used as a foreshadowing tool.
In the given lines, Juliet has a vision of Romeo being dead. This truly happens at the end of the tragedy - Romeo returns to Verona, believing that Juliet is dead. When he arrives at her tomb, he sees her and concludes that his assumption was correct. Grieving, he drinks poison, which results in his death. However, it turns out that Juliet is still alive. She wakes up, finds him dead, and kills herself with his own sword. This is the fatal future of their love foreshadowed by Juliet's vision.
Why is Calixta happy at the end of the story? How can everyone be happy at the end of the story? What does the author's attitude toward the adultery seem to be? Is there an overall "moral tone" to the story?
This question is about "the storm" by Kate Chopin
Answer Explanation:
1. Calixta is happy at the end of the story because her son and her husband arrive home safely, even in the face of the storm, besides, she does not feel any remorse for the adultery she committed.
2. Everyone is happy because she has a family that was not destroyed by her actions, and they know that adultery is impossible to be discovered, so their lives, as they are used to, will be maintained.
3. Reading the short story, we have the impression that the author does not encourage adultery, but does not see it as something capable of destroying a family and ruining the marriage, but rather as something that can be kept secret, without hurting anyone.
4. The only moral tone that can be considered in this story is that people should do what they want and make them happy regardless of the rules established by society.

Read the passage and answer the questions that follows :
(1) We all want to succeed. Whether it’s in losing weight learning the guitar,
speed reading, or starting our own business. For those of us who have tried
and failed, success seems elusive. Why is it one person succeeds where another
personal fails? First and foremost, I believe it is in their mindset. But secondly,
I believe that successful people have developed certain habits, either naturally
or through research that the rest of us haven’t stumbled upon yet.
(2) What is important to you? Finding your core values may seem a bit off-topic
when it comes to success, but creating goals that are in line with your values
is key to creating intrinsic motivation. Sit and reflect on what you value most.
Pick a handful of things and actually write them down. Remind yourself of
your values every day, and reflect on whether you are honoring those values
through your work.
(3) Choose one goal to start. Something large enough that will give you a sense of
accomplishment, while aligning well with your core values. Focus is key here.
The more focused you are on one goal, the higher chance you have of success.
Set a date for success. Identify when your hope to achieve your goal. Keep
it realistic, while not giving yourself too much time. By setting a time limit, you
are making the process more real. Believe fully in your ability to achieve your
goal. Visualize yourself having completed your goal in the exact time-frame
you have chosen, although finishing early is also acceptable. You don’t need
to consider the failures that will happen along the way. Success is inevitable.
Others may think you will fail, don’t let yourself be one of them!
(4) Set up negative consequences for missing the deadline. Necessity is the mother
of all invention. If you can manage to keep yourself intrinsically motivated,
that’s great. If not, this will help kick you into gear and keep your eye on the
prize. Prioritize the tasks you have in front of you. Don’t always do the most
urgent thing first. Pick the task that’s the most important. Sometimes these
overlap, which is nice. By always accomplishing what’s most important, you
are making clear progress toward your goal.
(5) Push yourself. Go out of your comfort zone. This is the best way to learn, and
the best way to make progress quickly. If you’re looking for new ideas, being
risk averse will not help. This takes a lot of self-awareness. Try and be
conscious of when you are holding yourself back out of fear. Push yourself to
be courageous, and take that next step. Failure is inevitable when you take
risks, which is what you’ll be doing if you want to succeed. By its very definition,
the desire to succeed at something means you are risking failure. Many people
tend to give up far too early. Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and march
on!
(6) Take time every day to sit quietly and reflect on your values, goals, and progress
made so far. Where have you excelled, and where can you do better. Is
everything you are doing still lining up with your core values? Always look for
ways to improve. Never stop learning. Know what everyone else is doing,
and what everyone else has done, and how they did it. Search wide for
knowledge that might help you, and any inspiration that may do the same.
Never think you have nothing to learn from others.
(a) On the basis of your reading of the above passage, make notes on its
using recognizable abbreviations (Min. 4) wherever necessary. Use a
format you consider appropriate. Supply a suitable title.
(b) Write a summary of the passage.

12. How did the loss of the Massechusets charter affect the Salem witch trials?
Answer:
There was an original charter in 1629 and criminal law was administered by the Court of Assistants. The Court of Assistants consisted of the Governor, the Deputy Governor, and there were many assistants. The Court of Assistants only judged cases on what they knew and they were not trained lawyers. Paranoia took over and they were charging people as being witches. Later, they were not longer hysterical and realized that they could not prove beyond doubt that someone was an actual witch. The judges were literally told that they could not just make someone guilty because of what someone said. The governor finally pardoned the rest of the people that were on trial.
