Read this passage from The Secret Garden.

Then Mary knew Dickon had meant the picture to be a message. He had meant that she might be sure he would keep her secret. Her garden was her nest and she was like a missel thrush. Oh, how she did like that queer, common boy!

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 1

Answer:

b

Explanation:

k12

Answer 2

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.

IMAGINE YOU WAKE UP IN AN UNFAMILIAR SETTING, FEELING CONFUSED AND
WORRIED. DESCRIBE YOUR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS AS YOU TRY TO WORK
OUT WHERE YOU ARE

Answers

Answer:

Unfortunately, I cannot write you an entire essay. But I can give you a prompt and ideas.

Describe a jungle, but do not directly say you are in a jungle. This will satisfy the "trying to work out where you are" part.

Paragraph one: describe waking up, feeling the roughness of dirt and leaves under you.

Paragraph two: You realize you are in an unfamiliar place. Describe the confusion and fear.

Paragraph three: describe looking around. What do you see? Probably a lot of trees and undergrowth (ferns, vines, other plants). What do you hear? Probably the calls of birds, unlike the ones in the city. Try to be specific when describing plants ("vines stretched into the canopy above my head.") or sounds ("a twig cracked in a nearby thicket. I jumped, heartrate rising.")

Paragraph four: Describe the new fear that comes with realizing you are in a jungle. Describe what you know about the dangers of jungles: the predatory animals, the diseases you can catch. This would probably lead to a feeling of dispair, loss of hope. You can end your essay very strongly if you craft these negative emotions right, and conclude that you are lost, alone, and probably will not survive.

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:

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.".

Why the Cat Always Lands on Its Feet

A gentle magician was traveling in a forest. He’d been traveling forever, it seemed. So when he spotted a tree with gnarled roots, he had to lie down among them to rest. He had just snuggled in and closed his weary eyes when a great serpent slithered out of a thicket. Had the magician noticed the snake in the undergrowth, he would have turned it into a harmless stick.

When the snake saw the sleeping man at the foot of the tree, it coiled in anger. “I will kill him!” it hissed. The snake recalled that this was the very man who had surprised it sometime earlier, just when the snake was about to dine on a tabby cat for breakfast. “Flee for your life!” the magician had cried, and the cat had scrambled up a tree just in time.

The serpent slithered closer now. It hissed its war cry as it remembered the magician’s meddling. “You will be my breakfast,” the deadly troublemaker spat, its forked tongue testing the air for a sniff of its sleeping quarry. “And when I swallow you down, you will be sorry you ever interfered.”

Now, it just so happened that the same breakfast cat had noticed the conflict from the branches high above the sleeping magician. “Arrrr,” she snarled, her little body quivering in fright when she heard the serpent’s hiss. She was slight compared to the enormous serpent. But as she watched the evil one glide toward the man, the memory of the magician’s kindness to her transformed her fear to anger. That snake would pay for preying on helpless victims! The tabby sprang for the coiled serpent like a bolt of striped lightning!

Flames shot from the serpent’s eyes as it struck wildly again and again. But the tiny cat clawed and bit with such passion that the creature soon lay dead.

The magician awoke with the snake’s dying hiss. He found the injured cat lying nearby and guessed what she had done. “Little cat,” he said, “in honor of your bravery you shall always have a home with man. And because you leaped from the high tree to kill the deadly serpent, you shall leap where you wish and always land upon your feet.” Part A

Lunar eclipses can only happen when the Moon is opposite the Sun in the sky, a monthly occurrence we know as a full Moon. During a lunar eclipse, Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the sunlight falling on the Moon. There are two kinds of lunar eclipses: A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of Earth. A partial lunar eclipse happens when only part of Earth's shadow covers the Moon.
