Answer:
In this chapter, Lewis further depicts Edmund as a malicious, flawed boy. Edmund seems particularly spiteful because he deliberately refuses to support his sister, Lucy. Edmund's actions suggest that it is not just a desire for the enchanted Turkish Delight that motivates his treachery. Edmund's greed for power and superiority also prompts him to treat others with cruelty. Peter and Susan's response to Edmund's behavior reveals a great deal about their characters as well. Although Peter and Susan do not initially believe in the existence of another world, they immediately understand that Edmund is treating Lucy unkindly. Peter and Susan do not join Edmund when he taunts Lucy. Peter and Susan do not discount Lucy's words, but try to help her and heal her.
Edmund's gluttony for sweets and power not only clouds his judgment of the White Witch, but it also obscures his ability to accept the existence of Narnia. Edmund sees a whole new world, yet he denies that this world exists. Lewis creates a parallel between Edmund and the non-believer—a person who refuses to believe in Christianity and the existence of God. Unlike Lucy, a child with an open mind, Edmund's mind is closed to the possibility of a separate world. Likewise, God is intangible, so it is difficult for some people to believe in His existence. Thus, Lewis creates a literal, tangible, new world about which there could be no debate as to its existence. Edmund, representing the non-believer, sees Narnia with his own eyes and still denies that it is real. Edmund acts as if he is the voice of reason, but his views are actually the ones that are irrational and illogical. Similarly, non-believers rationalize that we cannot prove that God exists, but Lewis suggests that even though there is so much evidence for the existence of God, there are still people who rationalize that there is no God. Lewis appears to argue that it is actually the non-believers whose views are illogical.

Stave 2 depicts Scrooge as a young boy in a boarding school in England. This was somewhat ordinary for a family with money back then (to send their boys to boarding school). According to Stave 2, how were things different for Ebenezer though, as compared to the other boys attending his school?
Answer:
Lonely and alone.
Explanation:
Though Ebenezer attented a boarding school and belonged to a pretty good family back then, he was always lonely and alone at school.
Stave 2 depicts how Ebenezer would sit all alone near the fireplace while reading books. When the Christmas spirit showed Ebenezer this scene from the past, he wept to see himself as a poor forgotten self.
Ebenezer then regretted not giving anything to the boy who was singing a Christmas Carol at his door last night. The scene from his past reminded him that the boy who sang the Christmas carol was just like him.

Here are 5 steps to moving from a motif to a theme statement: which is the correct order? 1: Think hard about what the author might be saying about that motif. 2: Think of a question about the motif. 3: Choose an interesting motif. 4: Try to say that idea as a theme. 5: Go back to moments where you saw that motif, with that question in mind.
Answer:
4: Try to say that idea as a theme.
Explanation:
A theme statement may be defined as the statement which explains the theme of the literature or the piece of art or entertainment. It is the main lesson or the main idea that the author wants the reader to learn at the end from the story or the art. It is considered as the main subject of the literature. Therefore the correct order is to try to explain the main idea as the theme.
April Fools' Day is celebrated around the world, although it varies somewhat from country to country. In the United States, for example, it's a day to play practical jokes. In France, where the holiday is known as Poisson d'Avril, or April Fish, people secretly tape paper fish on their friends' backs. A common April Fools' prank in Portugal is to throw flour on someone; in Scotland, the most popular trick involves sending someone on a useless errand. Denmark celebrates April Fools' Day on April 1, but some people there celebrate again in May. Maj-kat, on May 1, is yet another day for jokes and pranks in the spring.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
You forgot to include the question. Here is just a statement. But no question at all.
However, trying to help you, we can comment on the following.
Probably, your question is "what is the main idea of the text?"
If that is teh case, then we can answer this.
Many countries celebrate April Fool's Day with different variations, but the constant is that all these countries include playing pranks as part of the celebration.
Although there is not just one official version of what was the origin of April Fool's Day, many countries celebrate this day mostly by playing hoaxes and pranks just to laugh. And it is not only between people. Mass media slots and TV news stations use to dedicate one space or portion of the program to play pranks with current events, politicians, businessmen, musicians, and artists.

Explanation:
In line 19, the author refers to the Occupy Wall Street protesters as "losers." Does the author really think that the Occupy Wall Street protesters are "losers." Cite text evidence to support your answer.
Answer:
No, the author does not really think that the Occupy Wall Street protesters are 'losers.'
Explanation:
'Who Speaks For The 1%?' is an article written by Joel Stein. The article is a satire and author takes a satirical stab at speaking for 1%.
In line 19, when the author refers to the Occupy Wall Street protesters aas 'losers', he did not literally mean to call them losers. The article is a satirical dig at 1%, whom the author considers, in some way, responsible for economic crisis in the country.
The next line furthers the satire when the author states that the 1%-ers are not able to take stand for themselves.
'...the 1% are available for some serious networking. But when I started talking to them, I learned that for all their supposed power, they are now too afraid to stand up for themselves.'

Read this excerpt from "Myths About the Founding Fathers."
The myth may have to do with a letter he wrote to his daughter about the choice of the eagle "as the representative of our country." He criticized the eagle as “a rank coward . . . by no means a proper emblem.” He joked that the turkey was a better choice because it would attack British troops should they “invade his Farm Yard.” However, he never actually formally proposed to place the turkey on our Great Seal.
How do these sentences contribute to the development of ideas in the article?
A. It suggests that Franklin's daughter is the source of many of the made-up stories about him.
B. It proves that Franklin was the inspiration behind choosing the eagle for the Great Seal.
C. It shows a known story about Franklin is based solely on a few words that were meant to be funny, not serious.
D. It describes Franklin's personal view of the British compared to Americans.

The report includes some facts about the bill and the names of senators on both sides of the argument — those who are against the bill and those who are determined to get it passed. Based on the language used, the news report clearly demonstrates a strong bias against the passing of the bill. Does the strong bias reduce the story's accuracy and, if so, how?

chapter 8 summary hunger games
Answer:
Once she leaves the private session, Katniss begins to panic and worries that the Gamemakers will see what she did as an act of defiance. She is convinced that they will punish her by giving her a very low score on her performance, which will make it difficult to get sponsors, whose gifts are crucial for survival in the Games. She hides in her room until dinner, where she tells everyone what she did in her private session. They are all shocked except Haymitch who finds it amusing and reassures her that they will probably not arrest her or her family but they may make her life hell in the arena.
When she tries to downplay her archery skills, Peeta calls Katniss a survivor and reveals that even his own mother thinks that Katniss will survive over him. She responds by saying that she would not have survived without him and his generosity years ago. Haymitch recommends that they not reveal their strengths until the private sessions with the Game makers and to instead pick up useful skills during the training instead of showing off. He also tells them to stay together at all times and pretend to be good friends with one another. At the training session, Katniss watches the tributes and realizes that almost all of them are bigger than her although she thinks she may have an edge as many of them are clearly underfed. The tributes from the richer districts are healthier though and well trained. She realizes how much of an advantage these Career Tributes have as they have trained for this all their life and volunteer to be in the games. The training area is broken into different stations with combat training and survival skills.
Answer:
As soon as she leaves she begins to panic, wondering if they will punish her for her defiance. The Gamemakers score the tributes from one to twelve based on their performance, and Katniss is certain her score will be very low. That could make it difficult to get sponsors, and their gifts are critical for survival in the arena. She locks herself in her room and doesn’t come out until Effie calls her to dinner. At the table, everyone wants to know how Peeta and Katniss did. Katniss tells her story, and everyone is shocked but Haymitch, who finds it amusing. When the scores are announced, Peeta gets an eight and Katniss gets an eleven. She’s stunned, but Haymitch says they probably liked her temper.
In the morning, Katniss lies in bed for a time after waking and thinks of when she first met Gale. She was in the woods hunting and saw several rabbits hanging from snares. When she went to inspect them, Gale came forward. She’d seen him before: his father died in the same mine blast as hers and they both attended the memorial. They talked about hunting at first, and over time they became a team. Katniss thinks of how close they are and misses him. She has with Gale what she pretends to have with Peeta. Effie calls her down for breakfast, and when she arrives at the table, Haymitch says there’s been a change in strategy: Peeta has asked to be coached separately.

"Mexico and Canada is part of North America."
"Wood or stone are a good material for this house."
"A truck or several cars is what we need for this trip."
Write a four-sentence paragraph in which at least two sentences have compound subjects. Make sure that all the sentences have correct subject-verb agreement.
Answer:
1). a). Men(plural subject) - clear, sweep, straighten, trim(plural verbs)
b). He(singular subject) - is(singular verb)
2). a). "Mexico and Canada are parts of North America."
b). "Wood or stone is a good material for this house."
c). "A truck or several cars are what we need for this trip."
Explanation:
Compound subjects are defined as the two or more subjects linked with using and, or, nor, etc. The verbs placed with the subjects linked with 'and' would be plural while in case of the subjects being linked with 'or', the verb must agree to its closest noun.
He and his friends meet every week. Neither they nor he goes to the club as they don't like going there.
