Nico could feel that they were out there, looking in on him as if he were some sort of sideshow attraction at a carnival. He was facing his own reflection, but he knew he was actually standing on the wrong side of a two-way mirror—they could see him, but he couldn't see them. Nico realized things were unfortunately going to stay this way, too, if he continued to remain silent.
2
Nico pulled away from the mirror and once again scanned the tiny room that had been his noiseless prison for days. The walls were cold and blank, and they seemed to shine with some sort of clear, icy liquid. The floor felt like rough slate on his bare feet, and it, too, was cold and clammy. The chill of the room had gotten into his bones, and every night Nico crouched, shivering in the corner, wrapped tightly in the flimsy fabric they had left for him.
3
In the center of the room was a steel table, bolted to the floor, with a single, bare light bulb dangling above it, just out of reach. Atop the table lay the remains of Nico's latest meal, if it could even be called that: a rock-hard crust of bread, some tepid broth, and a fatty lump of meat—the likes of which Nico had never before seen, let alone eaten. Of course, Nico hadn't touched a thing they had offered, choosing instead to take an occasional secret nibble from the protein bar he had secreted away in a hidden pocket of his uniform.
4
The worst part of this whole ordeal, however, wasn't the room or the food. It was the deafening silence. Nico was alone in this box with only the pounding thoughts of uncertainty in his head. He went over and over the events leading to his incarceration, and he had absolutely no answers. Where was he? How long would he be here? Who was outside, looking in?
5
Nico had originally come to this supposedly uninhabited globe to take rock and crust samples for the International Geologic Institute. The planet certainly appeared deserted when he and his fellow scientists first landed. Then, after getting separated from the rest of his crew, Nico made the greatest and most shocking discovery of his career—the planet he was sent to explore was anything but deserted. It was a vibrant and very inhabited world.
6
That was when Nico was discovered by the alien patrols. They surrounded him, confiscated his equipment, and dumped him into this room. He was cut off from all contact whatsoever, completely isolated and alone with his thoughts.
7
Nico couldn't take the silence a minute longer. He had to make contact, even if it meant contact with alien life-forms. He returned to the mirror and began pounding on the inch-thick glass. “Get me out of here!” he bellowed. “I'll tell you anything you want to know! Anything! Just get me out of here! Please...” Nico slumped to the floor, and the door opened slowly. Two beings walked over to Nico, lifted him gently to the chair, and handed him a mug of sweet-smelling, warm liquid.
8
“We are glad you are finally ready to talk to us, Mr. Nico. We are very eager to hear about your reasons for visiting our little planet,” explained one of the beings. “Oh, and goodness, where are our manners? I am Agent Davis and this is Agent Billings. Welcome to planet Earth, Mr. Nico. We do hope you will enjoy your stay with us.”
What is the best characterization of Nico in this passage?
A
He is cold and extremely hungry.
B
He knows the planet he is on is not deserted.
C
He is isolated and uncertain of what awaits him.
D
He is determined to remain silent.
The best characterization of Nico in this passage is C. He is isolated and uncertain of what awaits him.
What is Characterization?Characterization is the portrayal of individuals in narrative and dramatic works. Character development is frequently used interchangeably with character development.
Characterization is the portrayal of a character's physical characteristics (how he or she appears), point of view, personality, secret thoughts, and actions.
In the story, Nico had the impression that they were watching him, as if he were a carnival sideshow attraction. He was looking at himself in the mirror, but he knew he was on the wrong side of a two-way mirror—they could see him, but he couldn't see them. Nico recognized that if he remained silent, things would inevitably remain this way.
Nico drew back from the mirror and searched the little room that had been his soundless prison for days. The walls were chilly and empty, and they glistened with a transparent, icy liquid. In this case, he wasn't sure of what will occur.

part a. which statement best describes the experiences Mexican Americans had before the chicano movement?
Answer:
Explanation:
Mexican Americans were subject to unfair and harsh treatment by other Americans.
The statement "Mexican Americans were subject to unfair and harsh treatment by other Americans." best describes the experiences Mexican Americans had before the Chicano Movement. So the correct option is D.
Due to their heritage, Mexican Americans experienced racial violence, prejudice, and segregation. They were frequently excluded from jobs, educational programs, and basic civil rights.
For instance, they were divided into distinct neighborhoods and schools, and frequently received lesser pay than their white peers for the same jobs.
Additionally, Mexican Americans were the victims of racial violence, as seen during the Zoot Suit Riots in Los Angeles in 1943, during which white servicemen attacked Mexican American youngsters.
Due to their sense of unfairness and inequality, these experiences helped to pave the way for the Chicano Movement, which promoted Mexican Americans' civil rights, social justice, and sense of cultural pride. So the correct option is D.

The Meat Market by Alex Tabarrok
1. What, according to Tabarrok, is “the great paradox of deceased donation”?
2. What positive developments in the last several decades have “led to fewer potential brain-dead donors than in the past”?
3. How has Iran eliminated shortages in transplanted?
4. How do Singapore and Israel promote donation without using financial compensation?
5. What is your reaction to the title and opening of the essay?
6. Although he mentions the dividing line between life and death, he avoids discussing the issue in the essay. Do you think this strengthens or weakens his argument?
7. Tabarrok is an economist. How does his background influence the way he approaches the subject?
8. Do you think that paying for organs in unethical? Why or why not?
Answer:
1. Indeed, the great paradox of deceased donation is that we must draw the line between life and death precisely where we cannot be sure of the answer, because the line must lie where the donor is dead but the donor's organs are not.
2. Brain death has been reduced as a result of improved automotive safety and reduced crime.
3. The adoption of the legalized and compensated living-unrelated donor renal transplant program in 1988 eliminated the need for Iranian patients for commercial or illegal paid transplants abroad.
4. Singapore is preparing to pay donors as much as 50,000 ... Israel is implementing a "no give, no take"
5. You do this part :)
6. It's a weakens because that's the whole point. (Add more to this if you'd like)
7. Tabarrok understands the ways in which financial factors drive people and shape society in a way that physicians or members of the clergy may not. He looks at things more logically and focuses on the idea of supply and demand and uses this perspective to think of ways in which the organ donation system could be improved, which works well for him.
8. Whatever the context, compensation for organs is illegal under Section 301 of the National Organ Transplant Act: “It shall be unlawful for any person to knowingly acquire, receive, or otherwise transfer any human organ for valuable consideration” (Public Law 98-507).
Because the line must be drawn when the donor is dead but the donor's organs are not, the major paradox of deceased donation is that we must draw the line between life and death precisely where we are unsure of the answer.
2. As a result of increased auto safety and decreased crime, brain death has decreased.
3. Iranian patients no longer need commercial or illegally paid transplants abroad after the legalization of the living, unrelated donor renal transplant program in 1988.
4. Singapore is getting ready to give contributors up to 50,000... Israel has adopted a "no give, no take" policy.
6. It is weak because that is the entire point.
6. It is weak because that is the entire point.
7. In a manner that doctors or members of the church would not, Tabarrok is aware of the ways in which monetary considerations influence people's behavior and shape society. He adopts a more analytical viewpoint, concentrates on the concept of supply and demand, and applies this viewpoint to consider how the organ donation system might be improved. This approach works well for him.
8. No of the circumstance, paying for organs is against the law according to Section 301 of the National Organ Transplant Act, which states: "It shall be unlawful for any person to knowingly acquire, receive, or otherwise transfer any human organ for valuable consideration".
What is organ transplant?An organ is removed from one body and implanted in the body of the recipient during an organ transplant operation to replace a damaged or absent organ.
Organs may be moved from a donor site to another location or the donor and recipient may be present at the same spot. Autografts are defined as organs and/or tissues that are transplanted within the body of the same person. Allografts are recent transplants carried out between two members of the same species. Allografts can come from either cadaveric or live sources.

One of the most common problems today that is killing people, all over the world, is smoking. Many people start this horrible habit because of stress, personal issues and high blood pressure. Some people began showing off or some people wanted to enjoy it. One cigarette can result in smoking others, which can lead to major addiction. When someone smokes a cigarette they are not only hurting themselves but others around them. Smoking does many horrible things to the human body that most people are not aware of. Almost everyone knows that smoking causes cancer and heart disease; that it can shorten your life by 10 years or more; and that the habit can cost a smoker thousands of dirhams a year. So, why people are still smoking? The answer is obviously, addiction. Smoking is a hard habit to break because tobacco contains nicotine, which is highly addictive. teenagers smoke because they want to be fit teens see their friends smoke and they think it makes them look cool or independent plus them.
