DON'T ANSWER IF YOU NEVER READ "The richer the poorer".
Please answer the following essay question:
Consider the way both Lottie and Bess decided to live their lives. Which sister is actually richer? Why? Explain your answers using specific examples from the story.
Answer in paragraph form using 5-7 complete sentences.
Answer:
Lottie lived her life working and saving money for her future enjoyment. Bess, on the other hand, had “lived each day as if there were no other.” This is shown by the first two sentences and the rest of the story. While Lottie lives comfortably, she is discontent with her life. When Bettie's husband dies unexpectedly, Lottie learns that though Bettie may be poor, she is rich with happiness and experience. By the end of the passage, Lottie realizes that she lived a miserly life for the future but truly did not enjoy the present.

Read the excerpt from "Opening Ceremonies of the New York and Brooklyn Bridge" by Hon. Seth Low, Mayor of the City of Brooklyn.
Fourteen years ago a city of 400,000 people on this side of the river heard of a projected suspension bridge with incredulity. The span was so long, the height so great, and the enterprise likely to be so costly, that few thought of it as something begun in earnest. The irresistible demands of commerce enforced these hard conditions. But Science said, "It is possible," and Courage said, "It shall be!" To-day a city of 600,000 people welcomes with enthusiasm the wonderful creation of genius. Graceful, and yet majestic, it clings to the land like a thing that has taken root. Beautiful as a vision of fairyland it salutes our sight. The impression it makes upon the visitor is one of astonishment, an astonishment that grows with every visit. No one who has been upon it can ever forget it. This great structure cannot be confined to the limits of local pride. The glory of it belongs to the race. Not one shall see it and not feel prouder to be a man.

It would have been all the better, as it seemed to Alice, if she had got some one else to dress her, she was so dreadfully untidy.

If you guys have read Number the Stars, by Lois Lowry, can you summarize chapter 14 (On the Dark Path) in 2 sentences? It's due 11:45.
Annemarie has always been the one who comforts her younger sibling with stories of fantasy and fairy tales. Now that she is alone in the dark forests, Annemarie is the one in need of comfort. She turns to familiar legends of courage and fearlessness to reinforce her spirit. But just as she turns the bend that empties out of the harbour, she finds herself face to face with four Nazi troops.
(its more than two sentences but you can always crop my answer)
Answer:
Annemarie runs through the cold woods, thinking of the story of "Little Red Riding Hood" and of the times she's told the story to her sister as she runs. She thinks of the dangers in the woods, of soldiers. She thinks, too, of her mother and hopes her mother has called the doctor. Annemarie is almost to the harbor, running "as fast as she had at school." She continues to think about "Little Red Riding Hood," about the times she had paused before telling Kirsti "she heard a growl." Today, it is Annemarie who hears footsteps and a growl. Just then she sees four German soldiers with two big dogs standing in the path in front of her, and they look intimidating.

Explanation:
Read the excerpt from "Elevator Systems of the Eiffel Tower, 1889" by Robert M. Vogel.
The first complete elevator machine in the United States, constructed in 1855, was a complex and inefficient contrivance built around an oscillating-cylinder steam engine. The advantages of an elevator system independent of the mill drive quickly became apparent, and by 1860 improved steam elevator machines were being produced in some quantity, but almost exclusively for freight service. It is not clear when the first elevator was installed explicitly for passenger service, but it was probably in 1857, when Otis placed one in a store on Broadway at Broome Street in New York.
In the decade following the Civil War, tall buildings had just begun to emerge; and, although the skylines of the world’s great cities were still dominated by church spires, there was increasing activity in the development of elevator apparatus adapted to the transportation of people as well as of merchandise. Operators of hotels and stores gradually became aware of the commercial advantages to be gained by elevating their patrons even one or two floors above the ground, by machinery. The steam engine formed the foundation of the early elevator industry, but as building heights increased it was gradually replaced by hydraulic, and ultimately by electrical, systems.
Which sentence most directly supports the development of the central idea?

Operators of hotels and stores gradually became aware of the commercial advantages to be gained by elevating their patrons even one or two floors above the ground, by machinery.
Answer:
I believe that the answer is C. In the decade following the Civil War, tall buildings had just begun to emerge; and, although the skylines of the world’s great cities were still dominated by church spires, there was increasing activity in the development of elevator apparatus adapted to the transportation of people as well as of merchandise.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because, the whole text is about the elevator and its development throughout the years. This paragraph explains the development of the elevator, its possible purpose, and the time frame in which it took place. This sentence seems to sum up the text better than the other options.
Hope this helps! :)
The sentence most directly supports the development of the central idea is :

This can be because, the full content is around the lift and its advancement all through the years.
This passage clarifies the advancement of the lift, its conceivable reason, and the time outline in which it took put.
Thus, the correct option is C.

The Tell-Tale Heart
Poe's narrator insists he isn't mad, though his behavior suggests otherwise. Analyze how Poe uses the point of view of this “unreliable narrator” to create a feeling of horror. What does it show about the importance of character in a horror story or movie?
Answer:
Unreliable Narrator is the one who has his credibility compromised, either by lying or by presenting a questionable sanity. By telling lies, hiding information the narrator does not act in accordance with the narrative norms of the work. However, it is difficult to measure whether the reader really understands all the norms; after all, the narrator's contradiction can only be in opposition to the reader's understanding of that fictional world.
Thus, considering a narrative as unreliable can be configured as a kind of reader strategy that directs the narrator any and all interpretive discrepancies. Therefore, to question the credibility of the narrator it is also necessary to question the individual understanding of each reader.
The unreliable narrator's procedure contributes to the works maintaining the suspense character by narrating the actions inaccurately or incorrectly. The reader is waiting for when the narrator will be unmasked by any character or at what point in the plot will be evident that the sources used by the narrator are false or false.
Explanation:
Read the following excerpt from the article “Icebergs,” which was posted online by the United States Coast Guard. As you read, consider how some common words used in science texts have multiple meanings.
Much has been written about bottle-green icebergs that are sometimes seen in the Antarctic. Several mechanisms have been proposed, but the most likely explanation for the green color is the freezing of organic-rich seawater to the underwater part of the ice shelf from which the iceberg calved. The green ice is exposed after an iceberg breaks free of the shelf and rolls over.
What does the word shelf mean in this excerpt?
Group of answer choices
A)part of glacial ice
B)part of an iceberg
C)a green iceberg
D)part of the ocean
Part of the ocean does the word shelf mean in this excerpt. Hence, option D is correct.
What is meant by Icebergs?The word iceberg is derived from the Dutch word ijsberg, which means "ice mountain" and is linked to the German Eisberg, the Low Saxon Iesbarg, and the Swedish isberg.
Icebergs are icebergs that have broken off from glaciers or shelf ice and are currently drifting in open water. Growlers are the colloquial term for little icebergs that only show a small portion above the surface. These icebergs have vast surfaces and can grow to heights of more than 200 feet.
According to Condron, big icebergs can be used to provide water to cities and alleviate drought conditions.
Thus, option D is correct.
