thirsty crow
One hot day, a thirsty crow flew all over the fields looking for water. For a long time, he could not find any. He felt very weak, almost lost all hope. Suddenly, he saw a water jug below the tree. He flew straight down to see if there was any water inside. Yes, he could see some water inside the jug!
The crow tried to push his head into the jug. Sadly, he found that the neck of the jug was too narrow. Then he tried to push the jug to tilt for the water to flow out, but the jug was too heavy.
The crow thought hard for a while. Then, looking around it, he saw some pebbles. He suddenly had a good idea. He started picking up the pebbles one by one, dropping each into the jug. As more and more pebbles filled the jug, the water level kept rising. Soon it was high enough for the crow to drink. His plan had worked!

Atoms for Peace
By Dwight D. Eisenhower (excerpt)
Occasional pages of history do record the faces of the ”Great Destroyers” but the whole book of history reveals mankind’s never-ending quest for peace, and mankind’s God-given capacity to build.
It is with the book of history, and not with isolated pages, that the United States will ever wish to be identified. My country wants to be constructive, not destructive. It wants agreement, not wars, among nations. It wants itself to live in freedom, and in the confidence that the people of every other nation enjoy equally the right of choosing their own way of life.
So my country’s purpose is to help us move out of the dark chamber of horrors into the light, to find a way by which the minds of men, the hopes of men, the souls of men every where, can move forward toward peace and happiness and well being.
In this quest, I know that we must not lack patience.
I know that in a world divided, such as our today, salvation cannot be attained by one dramatic act.
I know that many steps will have to be taken over many months before the world can look at itself one day and truly realize that a new climate of mutually peaceful confidence is abroad in the world.
But I know, above all else, that we must start to take these steps—now.

Type your response in the box. Look at the bicycle posters. Which one of the three advertisements do you think is the most appealing? Explain the reasons for your choice.
Answer:
I find the second poster more appealing. This is because it uses bright colors that grab my attention, such as the red in the background and the green letters. The words are written big which makes the poster easier to read. The aesthetic of it makes it feel bright and captivating.
Explanation:
I
Answer:
All of the images have their pros and cons. For example, image one has fun text and easy to read text, but no colors that draw your eye. Image two has bright colors that naturally draw your eye. Although the advertisement itself does draw your eye there is virtually no information about the image that you are advertising. In the third image there is a pop of color and clearly a lot of information, but the information is hard to read and not very eye catching, With that knowledge, I think that that image one is the best option, it has fun easy to read text and a big sketch of what you are advertising so the consumer knows what they are purchasing and some details.
Four Freedoms speech
Answer:
what ab it
Explanation:
Answer:
Mr. President, Mr. Speaker, members of the 77th Congress:
I address you, the members of this new Congress, at a moment unprecedented in the history of the union. I use the word “unprecedented” because at no previous time has American security been as seriously threatened from without as it is today.
Since the permanent formation of our government under the Constitution in 1789, most of the periods of crisis in our history have related to our domestic affairs. And, fortunately, only one of these -- the four-year war between the States -- ever threatened our national unity. Today, thank God, 130,000,000 Americans in 48 States have forgotten points of the compass in our national unity.
It is true that prior to 1914 the United States often has been disturbed by events in other continents. We have even engaged in two wars with European nations and in a number of undeclared wars in the West Indies, in the Mediterranean and in the Pacific, for the maintenance of American rights and for the principles of peaceful commerce. But in no case had a serious threat been raised against our national safety or our continued independence.

Which sentence in the passage uses parallel structure?
A fashion trend not only changes but is also evolving. It grows and is sometimes defining the era in which it originated. In the 1950s, for example, wide-circle skirts and wearing long dresses were in fashion. Then in the 1960s, the A-line skirt and a miniskirt became trendy. Fashion forecasting involves predicting future trends by observing changes in the current situation and learning from the past trends.
Answer:
Fashion forecasting involves predicting future trends by observing changes in the current situation and learning from the past trends.
Explanation:
The above sentence uses parallel structure.
Parallel structure (also known as parallelism) refers to the use of same pattern of words or phrases in order to show the equal importance of the words or ideas. When words and phrases are used, they should not only match in structure, but also in tense. Parallel structure is seen when conjunctions like and, but, or, etc are used.
In the sentence, we see that observing and learning follow the same pattern just before and after the and. This makes the sentence a parallel structure.
The use of parallel structure is used to add clarity to writing and to help make the sentence easier to understand.
Answer:
Fashion forecasting involves predicting future trends by observing changes in the current situation and learning from past trends.

Pacing a story involves the use of descriptive language such as precise diction. What is the purpose of using precise diction?
1. to "show" the reader the events through visualization using reactionary senses
2. to invoke a certain reaction or emotion using specifically chosen words, fully allowing the reader to be involved in the moment
3. to "tell" the reader what is happening so it is very clear
4.to advance the plot of a story and show the relationship between characters
Answer:
to invoke a certain reaction or emotion using specifically chosen words, fully allowing the reader to be involved in the moment
Explanation:
Pacing a story is simply the speed or rate the story is told by the narrator, and not how quickly the action happens.
It is important to use precise diction when pacing a story so that the emotion of the reader is aroused and can be fully involved in the moment.
Which of these characteristics does NOT describe the epic poem of the English Anglo/Saxon period?
A) They were not written down; rather, they were sung by scops, professional poets.
B) They were short, lyric poems about everyday people of the period.
C) They were long, narrated poems celebrating the deeds of heroic warriors.
Answer:
The option that does NOT describe the epic poem of the English Anglo/Saxon period is:
B) They were short, lyric poems about everyday people of the period.
Explanation:
We can easily confirm options A and C when researching about epic poems from the Anglo/Saxon period. First, Anglo-Saxon literature was traditionally oral. Poets would memorize the poems and teach them, passing them down from generation to generation. It was only in the 12th century that churchmen began to write down the poems.
Anglo-Saxon literature focused on heroic deeds instead of ordinary people's everyday lives. They would speak of brave warriors and kings, their feats, honor, kinship, and so on. Such poems tended to be long.
Having that in mind, we can easily choose letter B as the one that does NOT describe an epic poem of the Anglo/Saxon period.

My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red, than her lips red:
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damask'd, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound:
I grant I never saw a goddess go,—
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:
And yet by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.
Which words and phrases in the sonnet indicate that the tone is satirical? Select two options.
“My mistress”
“black wires”
“damask’d”
“reeks”
“false compare”
Answer:
“My mistress” I believe.

"Reeks"
Explanation:
Satirical means 'satire', so which part of the sonnet shows "the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices..."?
