Read the passage.

Almost everyone knows “Taps,” the haunting melody played by a military bugler at military and memorial services. This tune has twenty-four solemn notes, one for each hour of the day, and all the notes are part of a single chord.

“Taps” had its beginnings in Europe. It . . . functioned as a kind of curfew call. It warned [soldiers who were late returning to their barracks] that they had only a short time to return to base. Troops who were roaming at liberty needed to report to their officers, or they would be disciplined.

One evening during the Civil War, General Daniel Butterfield, a Union officer, fondly and sympathetically recalled the French tune. Somehow, “Taps” had crossed the ocean. Butterfield made his speech to his comrades, asking those in the group that the melody be played each evening at sundown instead of a bugle named “Extinguish the Lights.” The tune soon spread to the Confederate army, and it was even played at the funeral of Confederate General Stonewall Jackson.

These days, “Taps” no longer symbolizes a curfew call. Instead, it functions as a solemn farewell. When its twenty-four notes ring out at a state occasion, mellow and true, they often bring tears to the eyes of the spectators in attendance.

read the excerpt from Esperanza Rising. Isabel's eyes got bigger and she looked worried. "Esperanza, when I go to school next week, you will be here alone with the babies and will have to do the laundry." Esperanza took a deep breath and said weakly, "I can learn." "And later today, you must sweep the platform. You . . . you do know how to sweep?" "Of course," said Esperanza. She had seen people sweep many times. Many, many times, she assured herself. Besides, she was already too embarrassed about the washing to admit anything else to Isabel. This description shows Esperanza has which character trait? laziness persistence weakness hatred

Answers

Answer:

The character trait persistence.

Explanation:

Even though she doesn't know how to do many things, she still persists, and keeps going and doesn't give up. She is not lazy because she still offers to do the things Isabel tells her to do. There is definitely no hatred, and although there might seem to be weakness because she does not know how to do many things, that is not what the author is trying to convey.

Because the SnapShot computer application boasts such high numbers of users, I believe our school should allow our teachers to teach lessons using this widely loved photo app.

Conclusion paragraph:
Each afternoon outside of the school walls, my friends and I use SnapShot to create meaningful art, so using the app in the classroom would allow us to combine our SnapShot skills with learning. As stated earlier, students will be more enthusiastic about math or science lessons when using a popular computer application to complete projects or homework. Because our school recently added a computer lab, all students would have easy access to the application. Yes, SnapShot should be used in our school.
Which statement best explains the effectiveness of the conclusion paragraph?

A.
The conclusion is effective because it reinforces the author's credibility and accurately restates the essay's thesis statement.

B.
Although the conclusion includes several points that support the main idea, it is ineffective because it fails to use an interesting and powerful closing sentence.

C.
The conclusion is effective because it does not create needless and boring repetition of the essay's main ideas.

D.
Although the conclusion restates the main idea of the essay, it is ineffective because it does not provide a summary of supporting points.

Read this excerpt from "Positvely Magic."

Your smile is your wand,
your laughter is your colorful
explosion, your words
are your spinning stars,

Why does the author include this imagery?

to suggest that anyone can perform a magic show
to prove that a sense of humor is not important
to illustrate the power of being positive
to show how words can trick people

Answers

Answer:

to illustrate the power of being positive

It’s C and the reason why is because using imagery allows the reader to have a better idea of something. For example someone may say your eyes sparkle. Your eyes don’t actually sparkle they’re just saying your eyes are beautiful. It’s the same thing here. Imagery is used to share the beauty of a persons characteristics and it’s why the author used it here

HURRY ITS TIMED Read the excerpt from A Black Hole Is NOT a Hole by Carolyn Cinami DeCristofano.

Einstein's idea of gravity had big consequences. It helped explain some observations that Newton's idea didn't account for. It also opened our minds to amazing new possibilities. For example, taking his cue from Einstein's idea that space bends, scientist Karl Schwarzschild began to think about what would happen if a place in space were extremely distorted. His answer: light would follow the hyper-bent space, never to turn away from it. This was the first prediction of a black hole. At first, some scientists (including Einstein!) rejected Schwarzschild's ideas. Others were intrigued and began searching the skies for real black holes. Just decades later, they found the first of them. It just goes to show: sometimes, as Einstein himself once said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

According to the excerpt, how does Karl Schwarzschild use Einstein’s ideas to draw a conclusion?

Karl Schwarzschild uses Einstein’s ideas about gravity to conclude that Newton’s ideas had faults.
Karl Schwarzschild uses Einstein’s ideas about gravity to conclude that space bends.
Karl Schwarzschild uses Einstein’s ideas about space bending to conclude that black holes are possible.
Karl Schwarzschild uses Einstein’s ideas about imagination to conclude that it is more important than knowledge.
