what are you working on?
Read the excerpt from "The Tell-Tale Heart.”
I smiled,—for what had I to fear? I bade the gentlemen welcome. The shriek, I said, was my own in a dream. The old man, I mentioned, was absent in the country. I took my visitors all over the house. I bade them search—search well. I led them, at length, to his chamber. I showed them his treasures, secure, undisturbed. In the enthusiasm of my confidence, I brought chairs into the room, and desired them here to rest from their fatigues, while I myself, in the wild audacity of my perfect triumph, placed my own seat upon the very spot beneath which reposed the corpse of the victim.
The officers were satisfied. My manner had convinced them. I was singularly at ease. They sat, and while I answered cheerily, they chatted of familiar things.
Read the excerpt from "The Black Cat.”
Upon the fourth day of the assassination, a party of the police came, very unexpectedly, into the house, and proceeded again to make rigorous investigation of the premises. Secure, however, in the inscrutability of my place of concealment, I felt no embarrassment whatever. The officers bade me accompany them in their search. They left no nook or corner unexplored. At length, for the third or fourth time, they descended into the cellar. I quivered not in a muscle. My heart beat calmly as that of one who slumbers in innocence. I walked the cellar from end to end. I folded my arms upon my bosom, and roamed easily to and fro. The police were thoroughly satisfied and prepared to depart. The glee at my heart was too strong to be restrained. I burned to say if but one word, by way of triumph, and to render doubly sure their assurance of my guiltlessness.
Which statement best compares these two excerpts?
The arrival of the police officers adds a supernatural element to the narratives.
The arrival of the police officers increases the tension and suspense in the narratives.
The arrival of the police officers increases the element of horror in the narratives.
The arrival of the police officers adds an unexplained event to the narratives.

Read the excerpt from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.
Why then, O brawling love! O loving hate!
O anything, of nothing first create!
O heavy lightness! serious vanity!
Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms!
Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health!
Still-waking sleep, that is not what it is
This love feel I, that feel no love in this.
What does the speaker's use of oxymorons suggest about love?
Answer:
The speaker is suggesting that love is confusing and encompasses everything all at once.
The explanation for that choice is that by using these oxymorons Romeo is attempting to show the contradictiins caused by love. He loves Juliet even though he is supposed to hate her. He uses the oxymorons to demostrate his one emotiinal state, the confusion between what he feels and what his family wants him to feel. Romeo and Juliet are love and hate all at once.

How is an article written 50 years after an event different from an article written one
year after the event?
It can reflect on the long-term impact of the event.
It can summarize the details of the event chronologically.
It can show the immediate reactions of the people involved.
It can provide lots of specific details about the event.
Answer: It can reflect on the long-term impact of the event.
Explanation:
An article that is written so long after an event happened, is able to show the long term effects of the event because it would be able to include events that happened in the 50 years after the event in question has happened.
An article written only a year afterwards however, will be unable to talk about the long term impact of the event and will be more focused on the relatively immediate impacts of the event.
For instance, an article about the Civil Rights Act written in 1965 would be unable to talk about the long term impact of the Act as opposed to an article written in 2014 that will show such for instance how Southern States fought the Act.
Answer: A- It can reflect on the long-term impact of the event.

List five words that come to mind when you think about research?
Answer:
sucks/boring/annoying/fail/no
Explanation:
Five words that come to mind when we think about the word research are investigation, inquiry, study, exploration and examination.
What is the definition of research?Research has been defined in several different ways, and while there are similarities, there does not appear to be a single, all-encompassing definition that is embraced by all who engage in it.
Research in simplest terms is searching for knowledge and searching for truth. In a formal sense, it is a systematic study of a problem attacked by a deliberately chosen strategy which starts with choosing an approach to preparing a blueprint and acting upon it in terms of designing research hypotheses, choosing methods and techniques, selecting or developing data collection tools, processing the data, interpretation and ends with presenting solution/s of the problem.
The research consists of three steps: pose a question, collect data to answer the question, and present an answer to the question.

In striking the match, friction raises the temperature of the phosphorus compound in the tip to its kindling temperature. The heat from the burning phosphorus raises the sulfur in the bulb of the match to its kindling temperature, and it, in turn, ignites the paraffin and then the wood. Three conditions for burning are illustrated the phosphorus, sulfur, and wood furnish something to burn; the oxidizing agents support combustion; and the wood's kindling temperature is reached in degrees by combustion of the phosphorus and the sulfur. As described in this paragraph, what is the meaning of kindling temperature? 1. three conditions for burning 2. the degree of heat necessary for a material to start burning 3. the oxidizing of another material ...... 4. the condition a material reaches after it has started burning

Which choice most accurately evaluates how the historical setting influences the theme of the passage?
Answer:
This question is incomplete since you have not provided the necessary options to be answered. Anyway, I will give you an explanation that will help you to answer it for yourself.
Explanation:
Let's start by clarifying what the setting is.
The setting is the place, time or historical context where a work takes place.
Obviously this will impact the theme, which is a word or short phrase that encompasses the subject of a text. It can be love, war, hate, etc.
For example, if the theme of a play would be war, the historical setting would be a great influence on it, since it is difficult to imagine a war, for example, in an amusement park today.

Which of the following would best replace the underlined portion of this sentence?
Because time was limited, the drama club presented an abbreviated performance of Hamlet.
A.
an accurate
B.O a condensed
c. O an expanded
D.O a superior
Answer:
B. a condensed
Explanation:
In the context of time, abbreviated means shorter. When it comes to play, this shortening is usually done by omitting some of the scenes or dialogue.
In this sense, this word can be replaced by word "condense" since we are talking about fitting something longer lasting into shorter period of time.
Of course, one should not forget that these two words aren't synonyms, and that they mustn't be used as such in every context.

Traveling is a freeing experience that allows for
independence and self-reflection.
O
Only when people are traveling can they truly
prioritize the needs of others over their own needs.
Answer:
C). Traveling is a freeing experience that allows for independence and self-reflection.
Explanation:
Whitman's 'Song of the Open Road' primarily explores the theme of 'freedom and liberty.' The speaker describes an embarking trip or an adventurous journey that he initiates towards an open road(unnamed/unknown destination). He calls it a freeing experience as he feels 'Healthy, free' and 'the world before him' and without any pressure or troubles. He can just relax on the open road and do anything he wishes to as 'the little things begin to matter less and less.' Thus, it offers an opportunity to look into ourselves and introspect. Hence, option C is the correct answer.

Which example best demonstrates irony?
A. A dragon with a deep-seated fear of lizards and snakes
B. A basketball team that protests by refusing to play
C. A lawyer who always secretly wanted to be a doctor
D. A line of boots that are just as comfortable as shoes
Answer:
The answer is option A.
Explanation:
Irony is when there is an outcome that you would not expect from a given situation. Example A best fits this description because a dragon is a creature very similar to lizards and snakes. Thus, it is unexpected, and quite amusing, that a dragon would fear lizards. The others may also represent irony to some degree, but the somewhat comical extreme of option A makes it the most ironic of them all.
The example which best demonstrates irony is (A) A dragon with a deep-seated fear of lizards and snakes.
What do you mean by Irony?Irony is a figure of speech which is used as an expression of one's meaning by the use of language that implies the opposite meaning. This is typically used for humorous effects.
Out of the given options, in Option A shows that a dragon which is a huge creature is afraid of small lizards and snakes.
So, the correct answer for best irony is (A) A dragon with a deep-seated fear of lizards and snakes.
