Section 59 of the Biography of Benjamin Franklin of Hawthorne talks about Franklin's youth, highlighting that he had no ambition for life by saying that "he has not told us whether his slumbers were visited by any dreams". In addition, he emphasizes that he had no expectations about his future, so it was unimaginable for him that he would become the important person that he was by saying that "But it would have been a strange dream, indeed, and an incredible one, that should have foretold how great a man he was destined to become, and how much he would be honored in that very city where he was not friendless and unknown". From the above, the correct answer is C. It shows that Franklin as a young man was a vagabond with no purpose or ambition in life.

"I don't plan to bury my face in my hands. And I don't

O well-meaning concerns of my teammates; I stiffen at
Amber's hug."
Answer:

Explanation:
Hello. You did not present the text to which this question refers, which makes it difficult for it to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly the same as yours, which showed that the text in question was "A Turn of Events." If that's your case, I hope this answer can help you.
In the text we can see a girl who is very nervous and anxious to be able to participate in a race and have very good results, being one of the first runners to reach the end of the course. She believes that this way, she will be able to fit in better and maintain her friendship with the other girls on the team, which she thinks are very cool. However, this anxiety damages her performance and she ends up pretending that she sprained her ankle so that no one knows that she didn't complete the race because she couldn't do it. However, this girl started to realize that winning or losing the race didn't matter to her friends and that the important thing was just that she participated and was able to finish the race. When she started to think that way, the anxiety, which so much hindered her, went away and she started to manage to complete the races in a satisfactory way.
The quotation that best presents this is: “A slight chill in the air teases autumn, and the hairs on my arms rise. Just finish, I tell myself. Just finish.”

"Sandwich coins made of copper and nickel. This minting was done to allow the silver to be used for industrial purposes, where it was badly

Do you think it was wise for Anne and Peter to become romantically involved
during this period? Why or why not? Provide at least 2 examples to support your
answer.
Answer:
It may or may not be right for Anne to be romantically involved with Peter but it was obvious.
Explanation:
"The Diary of a Young Girl" is a diary written by Anne Frank while they were in hiding in Annex. Through her diary we can see the emotions that Anne goes through during the period of hiding and Holocaust.
In her diary entry dated April 16, 1944, Anne writes how Peter and she got romantically involved with each other. It may or may not seem right but it was obvious. Anne was a young girl and leaving in hiding without any friends or someone not to share your feelings with became a burden on her.
And, that is when Anne and Peter develop friendship that eventually turns into a romantic relationship.
Textual evidence:
"My longing for someone to talk to has become so unbearable that I somehow took it into my head to select Peter for this role."

The following question is based on your reading of “A Happy Excursion."
"Objective existences cannot harm. In a flood which reached the sky, he would not be drowned." Does this mean that floods
are evil?
a. Yes, because they can destroy things. c. No, because a flood has no intention.
b. Yes, because they are active.
d. No, because a flood is just water.
Answer:
c). No, because a flood has no intention.
Explanation:
As per the question, no, the given quotation doesn't signify that floods are appalling or evil as they don't come with a specific purpose or goal of destroying lives or properties. The idea that the author wishes to convey is the significance of relativism and free will or liberty in life.
Zhuang Zi highlights that an individual should uproot himself from the compelling ideas of 'reputation or success' that the political, as well as, social order teaches him and detach himself from all the fears, threats, or oppression and leave his spirit free of all these restrictions. This is why he says that 'objective existences don't harm' if your spirit is liberated from such orders and self-constructed in itself. Thus, option c is the correct answer.
