excerpt from Penrod
by Booth Tarkington
A bitter soul dominated the various curved and angular surfaces known by a careless world as the face of Penrod Schoneld. Except in solitude, that face was almost always cryptic and emotionless; for Penrod had come into his twelfth year wearing an expression carefully trained to be Inscrutable. Since the world was sure to misunderstand everything, mere defensive instinct prompted him to give it as little as possible to lay hold upon. Nothing is more impenetrable than the face of a boy who has learned this, and Penrod was habitual as fathomless as the depth of his hatred this morning for the literary activities of Mrs. Lora Rewbush-an almost universally respected fellow citizen, a lady of charitable and poetic inclinations, and one of his own mother's most intimate friends.
Mrs. Laura Rewbush had written something which she called "The Children's Pageant of the Table Round, and it was to be performed in public that very afternoon at the Women's Arts and Guild Hall. And if any flavor of sweetness remained in the nature of Penrod Schofield after the dismal trials of the school week just past, that problematic, Infinitesimal remnant was made pungent acid by the imminence of his destiny to form a prominent feature of this spectacle, and to declaim the loathsome sentiments of the character named upon the program the Child Sir Lancelot.

Which of these is an example of a homophone?
the pen is mightier than the sword
the ball is in your court
pole / pole
bear / bare
Hello! A Homophone is a word that is pronounced the same, but has a different meaning, and it also must have different spelling.
A and B are both automatically incorrect because they do not fit the first requirements. C is incorrect because it is spelled the same way, which does not fit the second requirement. This means that Bear/Bare must be the correct answer. They are both pronounced the same way, yet they have different meanings and different spelling.
I hope this helps! :)
Answer:
D. Bear / Bare

What is a first person narrator? A. The perspective from which the story is being told B. The point through which readers view each word C. The story is told by one of the characters is in or her own words D. The narrator tells the story using he or she
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The narrator tells the story using I, I'm, I'll, because they are talking over themself, so it wouldn't be D.
It's also in first person so that means other characters wouldn't be able to narrate, that marks C out.
And, 1st and 3rd person perspectives are from a character's perspective in the book. So that means a first person narrator would have to be a character you hear narrating using words like I, I'm, etc. Meaning that you wouldn't be narrating, as it would be 2nd person (you, you'd, you'll). So it's not B.

determine the cause and effect in this passage and then enter your answer into the space provided. be as detailed as possible in your response. the monkey paw by w.w. Jacob
In this passage, the causal factor was the monkey's paw and its effect was the death of the only son of the couple.
In this passage, we learn of a couple, Mr. and Mrs. White, who was given a magical item known as "Monkey paw" by a Soldier friend. The potent item was handed down by a Fakir- a religious priest who said that a person could make 3 wishes with it.
The soldier, however, warned the couple that there were possible disastrous consequences of using the magical item but they collected it nevertheless. They wished for 200 pounds and their wish was granted the next day, only that the money was compensation for their son's death at the factory where he worked. This resulted in so much grief for the couple.
So we can conclude that the magical monkey paw resulted in the death of the only son of the aged couple.

It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
As a rich jewel in an Ethiopia's ear—
Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear.
So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows,
As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows.
The measure done, I’ll watch her place of stand
And, touching hers, make blessed my rude hand."
These lines express Romeo's admiration for Juliet's beauty, despite the fact that she is a member of the Capulet family, with whom his own family, the Montagues, are in a bitter feud.

Develop your claim with reasons and evidence, and form a rebuttal to argue against a counterclaim. The topic (what you will write about) is . The purpose of this essay is to .
Answer:
I believe the best age for anyone to start using social media is around 15-16. A child under the age of 13 will most likely be easily influenced by things they see since they are still developing their views and opportunities on the world and themselves. Younger teens (13 or 14) will most likely also be influenced but also pressured by social media. Social media can cause stress or pressure for those who are still young and developing. Around 15 or a little older is a great age to start because it is a good way to start giving freedom to young adults. 15, 16 or 17 year olds for the most part have discovered their personality and have a higher level of common sense and critical thinking
Explanation:
The right or appropriate age to allow children and young adults to use social media is 13 years.
What is the right age to use social media?Studies has shown that the right age for social media use is 13 as it is the the minimum.
I believe that the above is correct because at that age, the child will want to learn more about school work and others. Note that introducing your child to social media below that age is not right as they can easily be influenced by it.

from Little Women
by Louisa May Alcott
Mr. Bhaer saw the drops on her cheeks, though she turned her head away. The sight seemed to touch him very much, for suddenly stooping down, he asked in a tone that meant a great deal, "Heart's dearest, why do you cry?"
Now, if Jo had not been new to this sort of thing she would have said she wasn't crying, had a cold in her head, or told any other feminine fib proper to the occasion. Instead of which, that undignified creature answered, with an irrepressible sob, "Because you are going away."
"Ach, mein Gott, that is so good!" cried Mr. Bhaer, managing to clasp his hands in spite of the umbrella and the bundles, "Jo, I haf nothing but much love to gif you. I came to see if you could care for it, and I waited to be sure that I was something more than a friend. Am I? Can you make a little place in your heart for old Fritz?" he added, all in one breath.
"Oh, yes!" said Jo, and he was quite satisfied, for she folded both hands over his arm, and looked up at him with an expression that plainly showed how happy she would be to walk through life beside him, even though she had no better shelter than the old umbrella, if he carried it.
It was certainly proposing under difficulties, for even if he had desired to do so, Mr. Bhaer could not go down upon his knees, on account of the mud. Neither could he offer Jo his hand, except figuratively, for both were full. Much less could he indulge in tender remonstrations in the open street, though he was near it. So the only way in which he could express his rapture was to look at her, with an expression which glorified his face to such a degree that there actually seemed to be little rainbows in the drops that sparkled on his beard. If he had not loved Jo very much, I don't think he could have done it then, for she looked far from lovely, with her skirts in a deplorable state, her rubber boots splashed to the ankle, and her bonnet a ruin. Fortunately, Mr. Bhaer considered her the most beautiful woman living, and she found him more "Jove-like" than ever, though his hatbrim was quite limp with the little rills trickling thence upon his shoulders (for he held the umbrella all over Jo), and every finger of his gloves needed mending.
Which detail is present in the passage and in the illustration?
A.
Mr. Bhaer looks regal in his tall hat, which managed to withstand the pouring rain.
B.
Mr. Bhaer shelters Jo with an umbrella even though his hands are full.
C.
Jo immediately confesses her love for Mr. Bhaer, which leads to his proposal.
D.
Jo is heartbroken and cries at the thought of Mr. Bhaer leaving town.
Answer:
the answer is B. Mr. Bhaer shelters Jo with an umbrella even though his hands are full.
