Excerpt from Stuff Matters
By Mark Miodownik
In the absence of copper, gold, and meteoric iron, our ancestors’ tools during the Stone Age were made of flint, wood, and bone. Anyone who has ever tried to make anything with these kinds of tools knows how limiting they are: if you hit a piece of wood it either splinters, cracks, or snaps. The same is true of rock or bone. Metals are fundamentally different from these other materials because they can be hammered into shape: they flow, they are malleable. Not only that, they get stronger when you hit them; you can harden a blade just by hammering it. And you can reverse the process simply by putting metal in a fire and heating it up, which will cause it to get softer. The first people to discover these properties ten thousand years ago had found a material that was almost as hard as a rock but behaved like a plastic and was almost infinitely reusable. In other words, they had discovered the perfect material for tools, and in particular cutting tools like axes, chisels, and razors. This ability of metals to transform from a soft to a hard material must have seemed like magic to our ancient ancestors.
***
In 1961 Professor Richmond from Oxford University discovered a pit that had been dug by the Romans in AD 89. It contained 763,840 small two-inch nails, 85,128 medium nails, 25,088 large nails, and 1,344 extra-large sixteen-inch nails. The hoard was of iron and steel and not gold, which most people would have found bitterly disappointing. But not Professor Richmond. Why, he asked himself, would a Roman legion bury seven tons of iron and steel? The legion had been occupying the advance headquarters of Agricola in a place called Inchtuthil in Scotland. This was at the outer reaches of the Roman Empire, and their mission was to protect its border from what they saw as the savage tribes who threatened it: the Celts. The legion of five thousand men occupied the region for six years before retreating and, in the process, abandoning their fort. They made great efforts to leave behind nothing that could help their enemies. They smashed all food and drink containers and burned the fort to the ground. But they weren’t satisfied with this. In the ashes were the steel nails that had held the fort together, and they were far too valuable to be left to the tribes that had driven them out. Iron and steel were the materials that enabled the Romans to build aqueducts, ships, and swords; they allowed them to engineer an empire. Leaving the nails to their enemies would have been as useful as leaving a cache of weapons, so they buried them in a pit before marching south.
The reader can infer that the discovery of metal –
a) changed the face of hunting.
B) happened as an accident.
c) was the greatest discovery of all time.
d) changed humanity forever.
Answers
Answer:
D. hanged humanity forever.
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from Stuff Matters by Mark Miodownik, it is narrated that in the Stone Age, our ancestors made use of flint, wood and bone which were not reliable and malleable for use. However, metal was discovered which solved the earlier problem of using stones and bones for construction.
Metals were malleable and the process could be reversed by melting it. Therefore, the discovery of metal changed humanity forever.
What does it mean to "interpret" information?
1. To translate, analyze, or give examples drawn from a text.
2. To speak for something else in place of them.
3. To think about in great length.
4. To work closely with another person or group.
Answers
Answer:
1. To translate, analyze, or give examples drawn from a text.
Explanation:
The word "interpret" means to translate, to clarify, to explain, or make an issue or topic or anything more easily understandable for others to know. It is an act of making things easier and better to understand and comprehend.
So, when we say to "interpret" information, it means that the given information must be translated, analyzed, or explained with examples. This will enable the readers to get a clearer and better understanding of what the information is about.
Thus, the correct answer is option 1.
Opened sentences with discourse markers?
Answers
Discourse markers are words or phrases like anyway, right, okay, as I say, to begin with. We use them to connect, organise and manage what we say or write or to express attitude:
[friends are talking]
A:
So, I’ve decided I’m going to go to the bank and ask for a car loan.
B:
That sounds like a good idea.
C:
Well, you need a car.
B:
Right.
A:
Anyway, I was wondering if either of you would teach me how to drive.
The discourse markers in this extract have a number of uses:so marks the beginning of a new part of the conversation.
well marks a change in the focus (from getting a car loan to needing a car).
right marks a response (B is agreeing with C).
anyway marks a shift in topic (from buying a new car to having driving lessons).
We use different discourse markers in speaking and writing. In speaking, the following discourse markers are very common:
anyway
like
right
you know
fine
now
so
I mean
good
oh
well
as I say
great
okay
mind you
for a start
In writing, the following discourse markers are common:
firstly
in addition
moreover
on the other hand
secondly
in conclusion
on the one hand
to begin with
thirdly
in sum
Discourse markers do not always have meanings that you will find in your dictionary. However, they do have certain functions, and some discourse markers, such as well, can have a number of functions.

A Northerly wind blew bitterly, sending a shiver down my spine as I opened the rusty ancient iron gate. Overhead, grim clouds smothered out the full moon's light, casting the centuries old cemetery into an inky darkness.
Moving further into the cemetery, Gloomy derelict headstones dotted the landscape before me. Everywhere I turned, a thick field of fog would swallow me, yet the torch that I held still didn't relieve my un-steadied nerve. Among the skeletal trees, the wind whispered ‘run, run before they see you! The jagged path twisted and coiled into the distance, until it reached the ancient mausoleum of the first owner of the house.
The grave was nowhere to be seen.

But was I wrong! In fact, it was the best week ever! I went horseback riding and participated in a ropes activity with a zip line course. After the course, I climbed to the top of a pole using only ropes and carabiner clips, and then I rappelled off the top. I even made a new best friend. Oh, by the way, the food was delicious. It tasted better than my mom's! (But don't tell her.)

Hyperbole is the figure of speech used to exaggerate one's point. For example, surely the food couldn't be poisonous because the camp would no longer be in business, but the author wanted to convey the idea that the 6th grader was very scared to go to camp, so the author used exaggeration.

Discuss the idea of love during the renaissance based on the selections you read so far in this unit. Prepare for the discussion by briefly reviewing the poems by Wyatt, Spenser, Marlowe, Raleigh, Shakespeare, and Donne that you read throughout the unit. Then use these questions as a starting point for the discussion: How does their idea of love compare? What does each poem tell you about the idea of love in general during the renaissance?
Answers
Answer:
The Poetry presents distinctive perspectives of Love: Shakespeare's sonnets donne's a valediction disallowing grieving and Johnson's melody to celia. No matter what she passed on, Johnson still cherishes her and emptied all his affection into his tune.
They are telling us, by the use the of figurative language, what true love is supposed to be: a love that does not care about physical; it's a timeless union that will always be in the heart, mind, and even soul.
They also tell the reader what it is not: it does not "admit impediments", it is not susceptible to time and knows no distance. However, while both speak passionately about true love, what differentiates the two is the fact that the speaker in Donne's poem has experienced true love. Taken from Markedbyteachers.
The initial 126 poems are routed to a young fellow; and the last 28 to a lady.

Which theme is best developed by this passage?
A)Happiness depends upon helping others.
B)The secret garden is a place for healing and growing.
C)Secrets are dangerous.
D)The secret garden is a magical place
Answers
Answer:
b
Explanation:
k12
The best-developed theme in this passage is "The secret garden is a place for healing and growing." The correct option is B.
What is The Secret Garden about?"The Secret Garden" is a novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, first published in 1911.
It tells the story of Mary Lennox, a young girl who is sent to live with her uncle in England after her parents die of cholera in India.
The passage emphasises Mary's perception of the garden as her sanctuary, or "nest," and how Dickon's message assures her that her secret garden will remain a safe and protected place.
The garden's description language, such as "healing" and "growing," emphasises nature's transformative power and the garden's ability to provide a sense of comfort and renewal.
The passage does not explicitly develop the themes of happiness being dependent on others' help, secrets being dangerous, or the secret garden being a magical place.
Thus, the correct option is B.

What does Kings explanation that he does "not wish to speak with Hanoi and the National Liberation Front, but rather to my fellow Americans" suggest about his purpose in this speech?
Answers
Answer:
King's explanation suggests that the Americans should be responsible for ending the Vietnam war.
Explanation:
King used this phrase when he decided to speak out against the Vietnam war, as he believed that this was an unjust war that caused the Vietnamese families a lot of suffering, due to the difference in military power between the USA and Vietnam. He reinforces in this speech, that the end of the war is not the responsibility of Vietnam and for that reason, he says "not wish to speak with Hanoi and the National Liberation Front." However, he believes that Americans should make this decision for the sake of innocent people and that is why he says he wants to speak to "my fellow Americans."

Well has it been said by one that Negroes too often buy what they want and beg for what they need. Negroes must learn to practice systematic saving. They must also pool their economic resources through various cooperative enterprises. Such agencies as credit unions, savings and loan associations, and finance companies are needed in every Negro community. All of these are things that would serve to lift the economic level of the Negro which would in turn give him greater purchasing power. This increased purchasing power will inevitably make for better housing, better health standards, and for better educational standards.
