Select the correct text in the passage.
Read the excerpt from O. Henry's "The Gift of the Magi. " Which three sentences in this passage reflect outdated stereotypes of men and women?
White fingers and nimble tore at the string and paper. And then an ecstatic scream of joy; and then, alas! a quick feminine change to hysterical tears and wails, necessitating the immediate employment of all the comforting powers of the lord of the flat.
For there lay The Combs—the set of combs, side and back, that Della had worshipped long in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs, pure tortoise shell, with jewelled rims—just the shade to wear in the beautiful vanished hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had simply craved and yearned over them without the least hope of possession. And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have adorned the coveted adornments were gone.
But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim!"
And then Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, "Oh, oh!"
Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit.
"Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it."
Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled.
"Dell," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on."
Answer: I found two of the answers. Ppl said the 4th one and the 5th one. Then I am not sure if the other answer is the second or first answer.

You are going to read an article about the Vikings. Choose the most suitable heading from the list A-F for each part (1-5) of the article. There is one extra heading you do not have to use.
A. Informative monuments
B. Heroic deeds
C. Scientific proof
D. Scarce information
E. A different way to inform
F. Negative characteristics
1____________
The Vikings have left many traces of their settlement which are still visible today. Archaeology provides physical evidence of their conquests, settlement and daily life. The study of place-names and language shows the lasting effect which the Viking settlements had in the British Isles, and DNA analysis provides some insights into the effect the Vikings had on the genetic stock of the countries where they settled. All of this provides valuable information, but the only reason that we have an idea of the 'Vikings' as a people is their appearance in the written sources.
2___________
Unfortunately, the value of the written evidence is limited. Not a lot of evidence survives, and much of what we have is either uninformative or unreliable. Many popular ideas about Vikings are nineteenth-century inventions. Others are the result of early historians accepting sources which modern scholars now regard as completely unreliable. In Scandinavia the Viking Age is regarded as part of prehistory because there are practically no contemporary written sources. Even in western Europe, the Viking Age is often seen as part of the 'Dark Ages', from which comparatively few historical records have survived.
3__________
Surviving accounts of Viking activity were almost exclusively written by churchmen. These include monastic chronicles, such as the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and similar Frankish and Irish Annals, which outline broadly what happened, at what date. There are also sources of a more directly religious nature, such as the much-quoted letters of Alcuin, and Wulfstan's famous 'Sermon of the Wolf', both of which chose to interpret the Viking raids as God's punishment on the Anglo-Saxons for their sins. Even the chronicles reflect the fact that the Vikings often attacked monasteries for their wealth, which created an obvious bias against them, and the hostile tone of these contemporary accounts has done much to create the popular image of Viking atrocities. However, modern historians have noted that the same sources show Christian rulers behaving equally unpleasantly, but without being condemned on religious grounds.
4_________
One of the reasons that we have so few records from the Viking Age is that the Vikings did not become familiar with the Roman alphabet (the alphabet we use today) until they adopted Christianity. However, they did have another form of lettering, known as runes. Runes were normally carved, rather than written, and were therefore mostly used for fairly short inscriptions. It is unknown how many people could read runes in the Viking Age. Runic inscriptions on pieces of wood from Bergen in Norway show that runes were used for all sorts of everyday purposes later in the Middle Ages, but no comparable evidence has survived from the Viking Age, and it is likely that few people were literate in runes. However, the fact that some Vikings were able to carve their names on their possessions suggests that the use of runes wasn't uncommon.
5____________
Most of the surviving runes are found on large memorial stones. Very often they only have the name of the person in whose memory the stone was carved, and the names of those responsible for having it made. Sometimes the name of the rune-carver was also given. Occasionally the inscriptions describe the achievements of the person commemorated, and refer to historical events in which they were involved. For this reason, runic inscriptions are a valuable source for Viking history. However, because they are so brief, they never give a very full picture, and often raise as many questions as they answer.
Answer:
1. C. Scientific proof
The use of DNA analysis by Archaeologists to provide insight on the influence of Vikings would make Scientific proof a good heading here.
2. D. Scarce Information
This paragraph speaks on the lack of concrete information about the Vikings which points to scarce information about them.
3. F. Negative characteristics
Paragraph talks about the tendency to portray Vikings in a negative light due to their attacks on religious establishments.
4. E. A different way to inform
Vikings may not have used the roman alphabet which made history easier to record but they used Runes which means that they had a different way to inform.
5. A. Informative Monuments
Memorial stones were carved on by the Vikings to show the names of certain people and sometimes the events that these people participated in thereby making these monuments informative.

Why is Fortinbras’ life affected by the pursuit of revenge? Does he use emotion or reason and logic?
Answer: who is fortinbras? We need more info
Explanation:
Answer:
Fortinbras was known for being a strong, courageous leader in Norway. He acts as a foil character to Hamlet within this play, and his ability to seek revenge. Fortinbras’ father, the King of Norway, was killed and in order to seek revenge on his death he wanted to get back the land that his father had lost to the old King Hamlet.
Unlike Hamlet, Fortinbras is known for quickly seeking revenge. “Now, sir, young Fortinbras/ Of unimproved mettle hot and full,/Hath in the skirts of Norway here and there/Shark'd up a list of lawless resolutes” (1,1, 95-98). Fortinbras had not wasted anytime he went straight for what he wanted. Hamlet on the other hand thought about his revenge for a longer period of time. Fortinbras' swift and forceful actions had caught Hamlet’s attention. By having these characteristics he was given Denmark on Hamlet’s death bed: ‘On Fortinbras; he has my dying voice:/ So tell him, with occurrents, more or less,/ Which have solicited.” (5,2, 349-351).In the end, unlike Hamlet and the other characters seeking revenge, it helped Fortinbras gain more power than he had in the beginning of the play. He is the only character who benefits from seeking vengance as he does it in a noble manner.

Passage 1
Dad woke me up early today. When I came out of my room, I saw Chris heading to the garage with Dad. While Mom was packing some clothes in a backpack, she told me to finish my breakfast quickly. That's when I realized what was happening—we were supposed to go to the amusement park today. I couldn’t wait to go on the Dark Tunnel ride first thing because every guy in my class had already gone on it.
The park was a two-hour drive from our home, and it was already crowded when we got there. I headed straight for the Dark Tunnel, but it had the longest line of all. Chris said that we should save it for last, when the crowd would thin out. Try as I might, there was no convincing him otherwise. He was my big brother after all.
I almost forgot about the Dark Tunnel because we soon entered the big pool with a machine that created artificial waves. Then there was the Cliffhanger, which Mom didn't allow me to go on, but it was priceless to see Chris's face when he got off the ride. Time was running out on the day, and I was thinking about the Dark Tunnel again. With the park almost closing, we went back to the ride just in time. Chris was right for once—there was hardly a line when we got there.
Passage 2
Ryan never understood how he could lose to his brother in a bicycle race every single time. Even though James was the older brother, Ryan was taller and stronger. It didn’t add up in Ryan’s mind—he should be the victor. After several sleepless nights trying to figure it out, he decided to get his brother’s advice.
"It's because you’re afraid of losing," James said.
Ryan realized that his brother was right. During every single race, he had been focused on not losing. Instead, he now knew, he needed to simply focus on giving it his all. Ryan needed to go out there and race his race without overthinking the outcome.

Summarize the story the house call
Answer:
The story is taken from Berlin City of Germany. The main characters are Dr. Emil Braun, his wife Mrs. Braun and a sick woman Elda.
One day after Christmas of 1903, in the evening, Dr. Emil Brown of Germany was trying to make notes of the difficult surgical operation he did that day. He was trying to have dinner at the same time. But due to his tiredness he could not do either of them and soon dozed off.
Then a conversation about a house call between a small girl and his wife at his door woke him up. The child was saying that her mother was very ill and was dying soon. The doctor came to the door, talked to the girl. The girl of six or seven was thin and wearing cotton dress and shabby shoes. Dr. Emil became ready with his coat, hat and little black box despite his wife’s disagreement.
It was raining lightly. On the way the doctor tried to catch up the girl to ask some questions but the girl kept the distance between them and stopped for a short time only at the corners to make sure that the doctor was following.
The girl took him through the poorest part of Berlin, the section of the city around the hospital where he worked. Finally, the girl led him to an old house. They climbed the stairs through the dark hallway. The doctor tried to catch the girl on the stairs also but failed again. However, he felt energetic to climb up the stairs as if he was young. On the fifth floor the girl led the doctor to a room where woman was lying on a single bed. The girl thanked the doctor as he moved in and softly shut the door from outside. The elderly doctor easily recognized the woman. She worked as maintenance staff in the same hospital three years before. The doctor easily found out that the woman was suffering from pneumonia and gave her some medicine. He asked her if she had gone to live with her brother in country. The woman replied that she had gone but she had come back three months ago after her child’s death. They talked about the woman’s daughter confusingly. Then the woman showed her daughter’s shawl and shoes to the doctor in the corner of the room. The doctor examined them carefully. The doctor touched them and felt that they were wet. He was astonished to this. Then the woman said that there might have been some confusion about the girl who called the doctor. The doctor agreed. The woman said that she had been thinking about him and he came which was strange. The woman slept with her half sentence and the doctor left the room.
