In Poe's third stanza, what is Helen holding? What is symbolically interesting about this item?

Most of us are unfamiliar with the words of the song "Hail to the Chief," but chances are, we all know the melody when we hear it. For more than a hundred years, this song has been played to introduce the President of the United States at ceremonies and other formal gatherings. And yet, despite its traditional use, the song didn't originate in America. Instead, it is widely believed that the melody of the song was borrowed from an English musical play entitled "The Lady of the Lake," which itself was adapted from a poem by Sir Walter Scott, a Scottish writer. The play was staged in America in the first part of the 19th Century, and soon after, the song "Hail to the Chief," which bore a melodic resemblance to the music of the play, was used to honor none other than George Washington. From there, it was used at several presidential inaugurations, and during the term of Harry Truman, it was designated the official tribute to the President. Which sentence would make the best concluding statement for this passage?

40 POINTS FOR ONE QUESTION
Excerpt from The Alchemist by Paul Coelho

The hills of Andalusia were only two hours away, but there was an entire desert between him and the Pyramids. Yet the boy felt that there was another way to regard his situation: he was actually two hours closer to his treasure… the fact that the two hours had stretched into an entire year didn't matter.


How does the author create a sense of time and place?

By contrasting the pyramids of the desert with the hills of Andalusia, the author emphasizes the beauty of the boy's homeland.


By showing how much time has passed and how far the boy has to travel to realize his goal, the author emphasizes the boy's journey.


By comparing how long it took the boy to get to the desert with how long it took him to become a shepherd, the author emphasizes the slow passage of time.


By expressing the boy's frustration, the author expresses the boy's fear that he has made a mistake.

What is a key consideration when developing scaffolded lessons?

would embrace the idea of after-school sporting events offered to everyone. The school could sponsor, for
example, an intramural volleyball program in the afternoons. This would encourage fitness and foster student
involvement. It even has the potential to train varsity hopefuls who have not had the opportunity to play on a
team.
The author's purpose is
O to explain the history of high school athletics.
O to criticize the school's athletic programs.
O to present a case for intramural sports,
O to explain the rules of intramural volleyball.

Read the excerpt from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics.

Driving around the parks that encircle Washington, he solicited customers with a simple pitch: early in the morning, he would deliver some bagels and a cash basket to company’s snack room; he would return before lunch to pick up the money and the leftovers. It was an honor-system commerce scheme, and it worked. Within a few years, Feldman was delivering 8,400 bagels a week to 140 companies and earning as much as he had ever made as a research analyst. He had thrown off the shackles of cubicle life and made himself happy.

The authors prove Feldman’s success by describing .

Matt is moving into a new bedroom. He has four pieces of furniture to move: a chair (no big deal), a bed (which has to be taken apart), a dresser (really heavy), a desk (also heavy) and a couch (awkward, but surprisingly light). Matt has to plan out how he will move everything in. The bed must go in first, as it has to be taken apart to fit through the doorway. (Plus it will be easier to put the bed back together if it's the only thing in the room.) After the bed is in, the heavy stuff should follow. Then the awkward stuff. The chair can go in anytime after the bed.

Which choice lists the furniture in an order in which Matt could successfully move into his new bedroom?

A
couch, desk, bed, chair, dresser

B
chair, bed, desk, dresser, couch

C
bed, couch, chair, desk, dresser

D
bed, chair, dresser, couch, desk

E
bed, desk, chair, dresser, couch

Part B: Explain the example of humor in the dialogue below.

When I was about fifteen years old we had
retired to our house near Belrive, when we
witnessed a most violent and terrible
thunderstorm. It advanced from behind the
mountains of Jura, and the thunder burst at once
with frightful loudness from various quarters of
the heavens. I remained, while the storm lasted,
watching its progress with curiosity and delight.
As I stood at the door, I suddenly beheld a
stream of fire issuing from an old and beautiful
oak which stood about twenty yards from our
house; and as soon as the dazzling light
vanished, the oak had disappeared, and nothing
remained but a blasted stump. When we visited
it the next morning, we found the tree shattered
in a singular manner - not splintered by the
shock, but entirely reduced to thin ribbons of
wood. I never beheld anything so utterly
destroyed.
Before this I was not unacquainted with the
more obvious laws of electricity. On this
occasion a man of great research in natural
philosophy was with us, and excited by this
catastrophe, he entered on the explanation of a
theory that he had formed on the subject of
electricity and galvanism, which was at once
new and astonishing to me. All that he said
threw greatly into the shade the lords of my
former study; but by some fatality the overthrow
of these men disinclined me to pursue my
accustomed studies. It seemed to me as if
nothing would or could ever be known. All that
had so long engaged my attention suddenly
grew hateful. By one of those sudden impulses
of the mind which we are most subject to in early
youth, I at once gave up my former studies. I set
down natural history and its related studies. I
entertained the greatest disdain for a would-be
science that could never even step within the
threshold of real knowledge. In this mood I
betook myself to mathematics and the branches
of study pertaining to that science as being built
upon secure foundations, and so worthy of my
consideration.
Adapted from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, 1818.

Which theme is best supported by the passage?
A.
The beauty of nature and the ugliness of scientific study
B.
The questioning of some scientific methods in the face of natural catastrophes
C.
The usefulness of modern science to understand natural catastrophes
