What do these statements make you wonder about what will happen next?
My name was Tommy Stubbins, son of Jacob Stubbins, the cobbler of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh; and I was nine and a half years old. At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other.
Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor.
For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—Africa, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowly—like some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge! And, dreaming of the lands I had never seen, I'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight.

What's in a Name?
Mucus is a great word, not only because it gives name to an important bodily function, but also because it is one of those words that simultaneously makes you feel grossed-out and giggly. Other words for this powerfully important human-health tool include slime and phlegm. Slang words for mucus include boogers and snot. All of these words have the same giggle-power, simply from the combination of consonants and vowels. By the way, mucus is an old word; it's been around since the mid-1600s and has roots back to Latin (mucere, to be moldy or musty) and Greek (myxa, mucus). While you may assume that words like snot and boogers are relatively new slang terms, they are not. Snot dates to 1560 and comes from an Old English word, gesnot, and has the same root as the word snout. The word booger is not quite as old but has been in use since the 1890s.
Which states how "Making the Most of Mucus" uses the quotation? (1 point)
a
To create a metaphor for the importance of mucus
b
To list specific functions of mucus in the body
c
To support the idea that mucus is needed by our bodies
d
To suggest mucus has a well-deserved bad reputation

What was the attitude of the white men who came to Umuofia regarding the language
and culture of the people?
25
STUDY GUIDE (things fall apart)
Answer:
The white missionaries did not care much about the traditions and customs of the people of Umuofia. They believe in "civilizing" the clan and bringing "Christianity" to them, bringing along power and government with that. This led to a discord between the supporters of the new religion and that of the old, unrelenting men such as Okonkwo. Despite the clan having their own government and customs, the white men did not care about that and instead began to influence the men and women into 'changing sides' and pitting their 'traditional beliefs' against the new religion.
Explanation:
Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart," tells the story of Okonkwo and in general the lives of the Igbo culture. The story delves into the African tribe's traditional life and the subsequent changes that they were made to undergo with the arrival of white missionaries.
The white missionaries arrived and began influencing the young men and women into believing in their Christian faith. This not only disrupted the faith of the tribespeople but also disfigured and dismembered the community strength of the whole clan. It led to discord between the traditional customs against the new religion. Moreover, with the new religion came the influence of money and power, with the "superior" white men appointing certain men who support them as the powerful ones, the ones with authority, which further encouraged the men to be aligned with them, thus shunning their tradition and beliefs. And in doing so, the white men cared not for the beliefs of the clan but more about their success in "civilizing" the tribes and bringing them to "light".

Decision goes through different processes. Elaborate
Answer:
Decision making is the process of making choices by identifying a decision, gathering information, and assessing alternative resolutions. Using a step-by-step decision-making process can help you make more deliberate, thoughtful decisions by organizing relevant information and defining alternatives.
Answer:
Identify the decision - To make a decision, you must first identify the problem you need to solve or the question you need to answer.
Gather relevant info - Once you have identified your decision, it’s time to gather the information relevant to that choice.
Identify the alternatives - With relevant information now at your fingertips, identify possible solutions to your problem.
Weigh the evidence - Once you have identified multiple alternatives, weigh the evidence for or against said alternatives.
Choose among the alternatives - Here is the part of the decision-making process where you, you know, make the decision.
Take action - Once you’ve made your decision, act on it! Develop a plan to make your decision tangible and achievable
Review your decision - After a predetermined amount of time—which you defined in step one of the decision-making process—take an honest look back at your decision. Did you solve the problem? Did you answer the question? Did you meet your goals? If so, take note of what worked for future reference. If not, learn from your mistakes as you begin the decision-making process again.

she worked, Marissa's memories swam like dolphins,
diving among the blue and green waves under cool gray
skies
What can you learn from the
underlined sentence?
Marissa has only objects from Hawaii
on the wreath because she knows
Granny loves it more than Utah
Two months ago, Marissa, along with her mother, her
brother, and her aunt, had moved to Utah to help take care
of her grandmother. She loved joking with the energetic
woman, who always had a mischievous look in her eyes,
but the valley terrain was nothing like her island home.
Instead of the ocean, towering mountains encircled the
city, and it had taken her time to get used to it all.
Marissa touches the wreath in a very
delicate way because she knows that
many of the objects on it are fragile.
However, there were treasures here, too. There were
Granny understands that the wreath is
D precious and special because it mixes
objects from Marissa's two homes
scarlet maple leaves, miniature pinecones, and bursting
lavender buds, and Marissa glued these to the wreath as
well
Granny, delighted with the finished project that
Granny has collected more objects for
ED the wreath because she wants to help
Marissa complete her project
Marissa had so carefully created, gently ran her fingers
over the fusion of objects from Hawaii's sea and Utah's
land
"Surf and turf," she said with a wink.
Answer:
B. Marissa touches the wreath in a very delicate way because she knows that many of the objects on it are fragile.
Explanation:
Option B is correct because it tells of what a reader can learn from the underlined sentence.
From the underlined sentence, it's revealed that Marissa carefully created the project. The underlined phrase will mean that for Marissa to have carefully created the project, that means she touched and handled it in a a delicate and with care. This then means that it was fragile; fragile objects are actually handled in a delicate way and with care.
Also, another information that makes the reader understands that Marissa touched the wreath in a delicate way because of her knowledge of the fragile quality of the objects used is the way Granny "...gently ran her fingers over the fusion of objects..."
