The  author’s purpose in this biography excerpt is to show how dangerous it is to leave Honduras. The third option is correct.

A biography, often known as a bio, is a thorough account of a person's life. It depicts a person's experience of these life events rather than just stating the obvious facts about things like education, employment, relationships, and death. The biography tells a subject's life story while stressing various elements of it, including personal details of their experiences. It may also contain a psychological analysis of the subject.

"The Best Board Game"
I have always been a big fan of board games. Monopoly, Candy Land, Scattergories, you name it. When it comes to the best board game to play as a family, there is one clear winner: That game is Sorry. Sorry is a fun game for players of all ages. It is as easy as drawing cards and counting numbered spaces. Most children and adults can play it without becoming frustrated because a lot of the game is based on the luck of the drawn cards. The colors of the pawns include green, red, yellow, and blue. Anyone can win at any time, which makes it a fair game for families of all ages to play.

The Giver Describe the first memory received by Jonas.

Read the excerpts from "opening statements from John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon First Televised Debate."

Kennedy: I'm not satisfied to have fifty percent of our steel-mill capacity unused. I'm not satisfied when the United States had last year the lowest rate of economic growth of any major industrialized society in the world.

Nixon: We heard tonight, for example, the statement made that our growth in national product last year was the lowest of any industrial nation in the world. Now last year, of course, was 1958. That happened to be a recession year. But when we look at the growth of G.N.P. this year, a year of recovery, we find that it's six and nine-tenths percent and one of the highest in the world today.

Which statement best compares Nixon's and Kennedy's positions on U.S. economic growth?


(A) Kennedy argues that the U.S. government needs to prop up the steel industry; Nixon opposes intrusive government interference.

(B) Kennedy wants to slow economic growth to halt inflation; Nixon wants to encourage economic growth to make the United States more powerful.

(C) Kennedy believes that economic growth in the United States will decline without immediate government action; Nixon strongly disagrees.

(D) Kennedy argues that economic growth in the United States is sluggish; Nixon argues that the U.S. economy is growing robustly.

Yet today the products of fission applied to peaceful uses are many. The use of isotopes in industry, medicine, agriculture are well known. Food irradiation, nuclear power reactors, now reactors for shipboard use, are with us, and it is hardly the beginning. I frequently ask myself, of late, what 10 years from now will be the commercial, shall we call it, applications of our missile and rocket programs.

Based on the passage above, the reader can infer that the speaker believes:


Research in missile and rocket programs could result in discoveries for unrelated uses.

A lack of funding could mean that space programs will not exist in the future.

Rocket programs of the future will be used for agricultural purposes.

Discoveries in rocket technology will increase the nation’s military strength in the future.

PLZ AWNSER NOWTed and his father are going to the grocery store. They need to buy organic apples. Ted asks his father, "How are organic apples different from regular apples?" Ted's father replies, "Organic foods are foods that are grown without chemicals. Companies sometimes use chemicals called pesticides on foods. Pesticides keep bugs from eating foods. This keeps foods from being wasted. However, these chemicals aren't very good for people." Ted then asks, "How do I know an organic food from one that isn't?" His father continues, "Packaged foods like candy bars, frozen products, and even dried fruit are often not organic. Companies have to tell you if a product is organic. They do this by putting a label or sticker on it. But at home, it's easy. For instance, a tomato from Mom's garden is organic. She waters her plants regularly. But she doesn't use plant food or anything else." Question Based on the passage, which is an example of an organic food? Answer options with 4 options 1. cherries from a local orchard that uses pesticides 2. a chocolate bar that comes from a vending machine 3. frozen peas from the grocery store that have no label 4. a cucumber from a garden that has only been watered

My favorite color is yellow, not many people know why. They think it is because it is bright. But no it is not just for that reason. One of my favorite people has this saying ¨Today is a good day to have a good day¨ And I have no idea why I think of yellow when I think of that but I do! And I also love the summer time, like it might just beat volleyball. When I think of summer I think of big smiles, bonfires, long nights, days out on the lake, tan lines like nobody's business, sunflowers, lemonade, pigtails, ice cream etc. When I think of those things it makes me happy and excited. Which reminds me of yellow, again I don't know why. Yellow, yellow, yellow :)

• How is this case similar to the Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier case?


• Which type of expression listed in the First Amendment relates to this case?


Case: The drama class at a middle school was preparing for their spring play in the school auditorium. One week before the performance, a parent complained to the school board that the play was inappropriate for middle school students. The school board agreed and contacted the principal, who then informed the classes that the show was canceled. Students were upset that their preparations were a waste. They believe they have the right to freedom of expression in performing the play. The school board said that students are minors and that it must approve decisions about what is presented in school by teachers or students. The students did not have time to plan a different show. A group of the students’ parents brought the case to court on their behalf, but they lost the case in state district court. The students’ parents appealed the district court’s decision to their state court of appeals. There the students and their parents won the case, but the school board appealed the decision to their state-level supreme court. The state supreme court ruled in favor of the school board. Unhappy with the state supreme court’s decision, the students’ parents are now appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court.
