Answer:
B.
Explanation:
'The Danger of a Single Story' is a twenty-minute video by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie on TED Talk. In her video she stated the danger of single story published about a single group. She recalls how publishing of single story created stereotypes about a group of people.
In her TED Talk, she compared how she grew up reading Western stories and how Africa and African society were presented in those stories. Therefore, the statement that best compares West stories to the African stories is that stories of Western cultures were easily available across the world weheras stories by African writers are less accessible and also African writers are few.
Thus the correct option is B.

D.

Answer: i think the answer is c or d
Explanation:This is the passage
Insomnia is the inability to fall asleep or to maintain a restful sleep throughout the night. People who suffer from insomnia—also called insomniacs—often experience decreased energy, mood swings, and difficulty performing well in school and work activities. This sleep disorder can last for days, weeks, or years. People who suffer from this disorder can experience early insomnia (difficulty falling asleep), middle insomnia (waking up in the middle of the night), or late insomnia (waking up earlier than desired).
There is not one single cause for insomnia. Some insomniacs experience sleep disturbances because of depression, anxiety, or a mental illness. Other times, insomnia is caused by outside influences such as a noisy sleeping environment, a lack of exercise, or too much caffeine ingested during the day. Often a doctor will investigate a patient's lifestyle and sleeping habits as a first step in diagnosing the cause of his or her insomnia.
Insomnia can be treated in many different ways, and most often, lifestyle changes are recommended by doctors. Some of the most commonly suggested home remedies for insomnia are sticking to a sleep schedule, avoiding naps during the day, removing electronic devices and bright lights from the bedroom, and drinking warm milk before attempting sleep. If insomnia persists or begins to negatively impact the sufferer's life, medical attention should be sought.

Which line provides evidence that Rainsford’s actions are justified because Zaroff was unlikely to let him go?
A)The general sucked in his breath and smiled. "I congratulate you," he said. "You have won the game."
B)"Get ready, General Zaroff."
C)"Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."
D)He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided.
The answer is C
Answer:
The answer is indeed letter C. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."
Explanation:
Zaroff and Rainsford are characters in Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game." They are both dexterous hunters who have no empathy for their prey. The one difference between them is that Rainsford hunts animals, while Zaroff hunts men.
Rainsford becomes Zaroff's brand new game. By the end of the story, he has managed to escape the forest and enter Zaroff's house unnoticed. Once Zaroff enters his own bedroom, Rainsford appears. Zaroff had promised to let Rainsford go if he managed to remain alive for three days after the hunt started. However, even though he admits Rainsford has won, he does not intend to let him go. This is what he says:
C. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."
Zaroff is confident he will kill Rainsford and feed him to his dogs. Rainsford has no choice but fight and kill Zaroff to guarantee his own survival. That is what he does.
Answer:
C. “Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed.”

TRAINING YOUR DOG TO WALK ON A LEASH
Start with your dog standing at your left side. With several treats enclosed in your left hand, hold your left hand right in front of your dog’s nose (within 1 inch of it). Say “Let’s walk,” and walk in your intended direction. Every few seconds, pop a small treat into your dog’s mouth and praise her for walking along at your pace. You’ll need to frequently reload your hand with treats from your left pocket or from a treat pouch attached to your waist. If she pulls ahead or to the side, immediately stop. Get your dog’s attention by calling her name again. Ask her to sit, and praise her when she does. Then put the treat-loaded hand back in front of her nose and start walking again. Go a little bit farther every day that you practice. After at least a week of daily practice with lured walking, stop luring her along with your treat-loaded hand, and instead just carry your empty left hand in a natural position at your waist with elbow bent. Say “Let’s walk,” and reward her, about every other step you take, with a treat that you get from your left pocket or waist treat pouch. When she can walk along without pulling for several minutes, begin gradually increasing—over many daily training sessions—the number of steps you go in between treats so that your dog is walking longer distances between rewards. Reward her every other step at first, then every 5 steps, then every 10, and so on. Eventually, you should be able to walk with your hand comfortably at your side, periodically (every minute or so) reaching into your pocket to grab a treat to reward your dog.
According to the information in this list of instructions, which can be said to be true if things go according to plan?
A) The dog will grow more and more docile as her training progresses.
B) The dog will require shorter and shorter walks as her training progresses.
C) The owner will need to carry fewer and fewer treats, as the dog's training advances.
D) The owner will eventually not have to bring a leash at all, and the dog will learn to walk on her own.
Answer:
A - The dog will become more and more doctile as her training progresses.

Which sentence most accurately describes a common quality of Modernist
plays?
A. Many plays followed the forms of Classical tragedy.
B. Playwrights rebelled against Puritan values.
C. Themes were not as idealistic as in previous eras.
D. The actors onstage were typically all male.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Themes were not as idealistic as in previous eras.
Themes were not as idealistic as in previous eras. Therefore, option (C) is correct.
Who is a modernist?The disillusionment and fragmentation of the modern world were frequent topics that were addressed in modernist plays. The plays focused on the individual's quest to find meaning in a chaotic and meaningless universe. These plays frequently rejected traditional values and frameworks, especially those of classical tragedy and Puritan morality. This was one of the plays' defining characteristics.
The characters in plays written during the Modernist period were frequently nuanced and imperfect, and the topics were frequently more grounded in realism and less rooted in idealism than those found in plays written during earlier eras. Although though certain modernist plays did have casts consisting entirely of men, this is not something that can be used to characterize the movement as a whole.

Which of the following is NOT a cue for dribbling?
Answer:

Explanation:
Read the passage.
Bul-GO!-gi
“Can you chop the scallions?”
Seo-Jun didn't look away from his smartphone to reply to his mother’s request. He was busy texting Vince Cordova about a new show they were planning to binge watch Friday night.
“Seo. . . . Seo!”
“What?”
“What do you mean, 'What’? I need you to chop the scallions.” It was 11:30 a.m., and the Town Pavilion—the office building Ji-Suk's food truck Bul-GO!-gi was parked outside of—was about to unleash a stampede of customers. “I have to get this beef marinating, otherwise in a half hour I'm going to lose a bunch of hungry tax consultants to the chicken and waffle guys across street.”
Seo-Jun smiled, but Ji-Suk couldn't see his eyes from under his royal blue cap. Then she realized he was still looking at his phone, which he was concealing below his knees as his fingers tapped the screen.
“Hey!” She threw a kitchen towel at him, and it unfurled in midair and landed on his head, draping itself over the brim of his cap.
“Okay, okay, I'll do it.”
Ji-Suk had made a name for herself in Kansas City, especially after a local magazine wrote a big cover story when she left her job as an attorney at a law firm after seven years to start a food truck business. If her own mother had still been alive, she would have been quite upset with Ji-Suk for that. Her mother had spent years learning to speak relatively good English, and she’d been determined to make sure Ji-Suk graduated from a respectable college and became a lawyer. Even though she'd made Ji-Suk take Korean lessons every Saturday morning followed by violin lessons in the afternoon—and cooked kimchi and other Korean delicacies with her at least once a week—Ji-Suk's mother had wanted her to succeed by American standards.
And she had. She'd become a lawyer, just like her mother wanted, but she'd also learned to love burnt end barbecue, a local culinary favorite. She was an avid fan of the Kansas City Chiefs. She even loved playing softball; she had a wickedly fast windmill pitch, having played throughout college and graduate school and on the law firm's recreational team. Ji-Suk had succeeded by American standards in ways her mother couldn't have imagined, and in ways her mother probably didn't want, but Ji-Suk couldn't do anything about that. She was American, just as much as she was Korean, and even though her mother wouldn't have wanted her to do it, starting the food truck was Ji-Suk's way of honoring her mother and showing that she valued what her mother had taught her.
Still, she was determined not to force Seo-Jun to do the things her mother had forced her to do. He wouldn't have to take violin lessons, nor would he have to learn Korean. She was more than willing to let him take Korean lessons if he showed any interest, but he never did.
She wasn't sure, however, whether she was doing the right thing, as Seo-Jun didn't seem to want to play sports, nor did he have any serious hobbies. He got by in school, but he didn’t apply himself. He was mostly interested in his friends. She hadn't been any different at his age, and she would have spent most of her time with her friends, too, but her mother would never have allowed it.
Seo-Jun finished chopping a stalk of scallions and put down his knife in order to glance at his phone. “Hey Mom, Vince has to do something with his family on Friday night. He asked if we can hang out right now. Would it be okay if I headed over there now?”
“Sure.”
He tried to read his mother's face, but she just carried on marinating the meat. He grabbed his backpack and threw it over one of his shoulders. Then he headed out the back door of the truck.
He looked back at her serving her first guest. She was smiling, but it was a distant smile. Without saying a word, he climbed back into the food truck.
Ji-Suk glanced over but still didn't say a word.
He picked up his knife and a handful of scallions and started chopping.

Think of an event that happened over the summer break. It can be simple. Maybe a trip to the park, a family gathering, or a fun gets together with friends. It may be more involved like a big vacation or a new experience you had. Use your five senses to describe the event. Help your reader feel like they are there, experiencing the event with you. What did you see? How did you feel? What sounds could be heard? Any smells in particular?
I see a beautiful ocean full of fish . I felt great bc I love watching fish swim. I could hear the wind breeze and the fish jumping in the water. it smelt like salt
Using sensory imagery, authors can appeal to the reader's mind on various levels. The five senses of sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell are examined in sensory imagery.
What is Five senses ?Using descriptive words to conjure up images in the mind is known as sensory imagery. While sensory imagery is a sort of imagery in literary terminology, it differs from other types of imagery in that it appeals to the reader's five senses. Any written account of a sensory event can be categorised as sensory imagery.
Most writing uses imagery to some extent. One reason why fiction authors provide a lot of specific concrete information is to give the reader the satisfaction of making their own judgements and deductions based on visual cues. But in order to create, authors don't always have to limit themselves to describing how things appear mental pictures.
It brings a passage or scene to life to describe how something tastes, smells, sounds, or feels rather than merely how it looks. The reader is given as much information as possible and is helped to develop a more vivid mental image of what is happening by the use of both imagery and sensory imagery.
