Read this excerpt from The Secret Garden.
They drew the chair under the plum-tree, which was snow-white with blossoms and musical with bees. It was like a king's canopy, a
fairy king's
What is the meaning of the figurative language used to describe this scene?
O The blossoms of the tree make a beautiful covering over their heads
O The beauty of the tree makes it only fit for a king
O The tree is so beautiful that it cannot possibly be real.
O The area under the tree seems like a castle

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The blossoms of the tree make a beautiful covering over their heads.

Explanation:

I saw lots of answers saying that it was D, but I took the test and it said it was "The blossoms of the tree make a beautiful covering over their heads.".

I believe this is the one, since:

- The second one says it's only fit for a king, but the sentence doesn't mean that. It means that the tree was beautiful, and it would fit anyone.

-Not the third since the tree is real, but it says it isn't.

-Not the fourth (last one), since it says under the tree, it looks like a castle. The few sentences didn't exactly describe that under the tree, it looks like a castle. All it described was that it was really beautiful, since they said, "They drew the chair under the plum-tree, which was snow-white with blossoms and musical with bees. It was like a king's canopy, a fairy king's.". All of those words describe a wonderful and beautiful place!

So in conclusion, it's "The blossoms of the tree make a beautiful covering over their heads.".

Hope it helped! <3

Read the excerpt from Seaplanes by Roberto Barerra


Flying boats have a fuselage, or body, that looks and acts like a ship’s hull. This hull enables them to float on the water very easily. Two small floats underneath its wings keep the flying boat stable in rough water. These seaplanes are usually larger and more stable on water than floatplanes are. A floatplane is a seaplane that has two long floats, called pontoons, under the fuselage. This is the only part of the plane that touches the water. Unlike flying boats, floatplanes often come in a wide variety of sizes. An amphibious vehicle can be either a flying boat or a floatplane with wheels. This allows the aircraft to land on both land and water.

Which BEST describes the purpose of the paragraph?


A.
to explain how seaplanes are used

B.
to encourage people to use seaplanes

C.
to list all of the types of seaplanes

D.

Explanation:

"The road to success is lined with many tempting parking spaces."
- Traditional Proverb

Choice A: Explain what the quotation is saying in your own words. Include examples to
support your explanation.
Choice B: State whether you agree with the quotation. Include specific reasons as
evidence to support your opinion.

Answers

Choice A: The proverb basically means that on the road to success there are many tempting things that could keep you from being successful such as greed and other things. So say you want to be a lawyer when you grow up, someone you see in public might harass and say rude things to you making you want to fight them. This could be considered a parking space because you getting into an altercation with that person can prevent you from being successful.

Choice B: I agree with it because there are many things that could prevent you from being successful when you are trying to. There are obstacales and many things may get into your way. Take the hercules cartoon movie for example, Hercules was going on a bunch of quests to prove himself to the gods, but then he met meg on the way(this would be considered the "parking space"). This was preventing him from being successful because meg was getting in his way of proving himself to the gods, because he was getting distracted by her.

Read the excerpt from Homecoming.

At half-past eight, Dicey herded everybody back into the mall, to use the bathrooms they had found earlier. Later, Sammy and Maybeth fell asleep easily, curled up along the back seat. James moved up to the front with Dicey. Dicey couldn't see how they were both to sleep in the front seat, but she supposed they would manage it. James sat stiffly, gripping the wheel. James had a narrow head and sharp features, a nose that pointed out, pencil-thin eyebrows, a narrow chin. Dicey studied him in the darkening car. They were parked so far from the nearest lamppost that they were in deep shadows.
With her brothers and sisters near, with the two youngest asleep in the back seat, sitting as they were in a cocoon of darkness, she should feel safe. But she didn't. Though it was standing still, the car seemed to be flying down a highway, going too fast. Even the dark inside of it was not deep enough to hide them. Faces might appear in the windows at any time, asking angry questions.

Based on the excerpt, which best describes Dicey’s mood?

A.She is very worried about what would happen to her family.
B.She is in denial about her family’s present circumstances.
C.She is trying to stay upbeat and carefree whenever possible.
D.She is having a hard time feeling safe in almost all situations.

Why do kids with cellphones cause a serious destruction mm

Answers

Answer:

In a way, it's more of a distraction than a destruction.

If a teacher is presenting a lesson or conducting a discussion and many students are not participating because they are looking at their cellphone, it is likely that the teacher will have to stop the lesson to address the issue, and that distracts the students who were following along.

Or a family could be having conversations about the events of the day and what's going on in their lives but gets distracted by texts from outside, or twitter nonsense, games, etc.

Explanation:

So the discussion tends to be destroyed; the continuity is disrupted. Information and insights aren't shared. And the group, whether it's a class, a family, or a group of friends, suffers the loss of understanding, sharing and/or bonding because some kids' cellphones were more important.
