Answers
So the second one
Answer:
2. The audience demanded an encore after the performance.
Explanation:
The word 'encore' has two definitions: 1. an additional performance of an item (like a song) at the end of a concert demanded by an audience and 2. a second achievement that surpasses the first.
The first definition is the most common and is the one being used in sentence number 2: the audience demanded an additional performance of something (an encore) after the performance.

Drawing a basic portrait involves gathering materials, sketching the face outline, adding facial features, refining details, and applying shading. The challenge lies in presenting each step clearly and logically. With practice, these steps can help you create a well-proportioned portrait.
How to Draw a Basic Portrait
Drawing a portrait is a wonderful skill to practice. Here are the steps to create a simple portrait:
Gather Your Materials: You will need a pencil, eraser, and sketchpad.Outline the Face: Lightly sketch an oval for the head and divide it with a vertical and horizontal line to help place facial features.Draw the Eyes: Position the eyes on the horizontal line, making sure they are proportionate and evenly spaced.Sketch the Nose: Draw the nose halfway between the eyes and the bottom of the chin, using light strokes.Add the Mouth: Place the mouth about one-third down from the nose to the chin, ensuring it aligns with the eyes.Define the Ears: Draw the ears from the horizontal line down to the bottom of the nose.Outline the Hair: Sketch the hair starting from the top of the head, considering the hairline and direction.Detail the Features: Refine the eyes, nose, mouth, and hair with more detailed strokes.Erase Guidelines: Gently erase the initial guidelines that are no longer needed.Shading: Add shading to give depth to the facial features. Focus on areas like the eyes, under the nose, and around the cheeks.While organizing this process, the most challenging part was ensuring that each step was clear and logically connected to the next, especially for someone new to drawing.

D. Taxes

D. Taxes
Hope this helps! :)
The right answer would be D. taxes.
Henry Thoreau advocates that when you find that your government is using your tax money to finance something unjust (in his case, the Mexican-American war) or is prolonging an unjust situation (such as the slavery), the more just thing to do is to stop paying taxes, in protest, and face the legal consequences.
He states that if every person who is against war or slavery stopped paying his taxes eventually would bring a change on the laws, inciting the politicians on passing laws that favored they way of thinking.

Choose all the sentences that BEST convey an objective tone and a formal style. The government took radical measures to conserve gasoline. The oil crisis also affected schools and businesses, many of which closed on Mondays or Fridays in order to save on heating and energy costs. Others are looking at how smaller school districts have managed to save money by establishing a four-day school week. Most schoolchildren can agree on one thing: Monday is the least favorite day of the week. After a weekend of spending time with their family and friends, few children relish the Monday morning sounding of the alarm or call of “It’s time to get up!” from down the hall. States that allow four-day school weeks require that the students spend the same amount of hours in class each week. For high school students, this means shortening breaks between classes while lengthening the school day by about an hour.

Why do you think Chopin does not elaborate more about Mrs.Mallard death?
Answers
The point of the story is that Mrs. Mallard dies, not because she is so sad that her husband has died, but because she is so upset to find out that he is still alive. During the time period when the story is set, women were thought to be very weak so it was assumed that Mrs. Mallard, who is sick with heart disease, would not survive learning that her husband has been killed.
On the contrary, she is actually relieved when he dies and the shock and disappointment of him being alive is what kills her.
It is this irony that the author wants the reader to focus on rather than the details of her death.
Kate Chopin may have kept the description of Mrs. Mallard's death brief to emphasize suddenness and the theme of uncontrollable forces governing lives.
Kate Chopin may not have elaborated more about Mrs. Mallard's death in 'The Story of an Hour' to leave its interpretation open to the reader and to emphasize the suddenness of her demise, reflecting the volatile nature of freedom and the constraints imposed upon women in the 19th century. The brevity of her life after learning her husband is still alive parallels the ephemeral nature of her perceived freedom. Moreover, this portrayal aligns with the naturalistic themes present in Chopin's work, underscoring the uncontrollable forces that govern our lives.
Born in Massachusetts in 1775, Laura Ingersoll had a tough childhood. Her mother died when Laura was 9, and her father soon remarried. Her father was a public official and an officer in the army. He spent most of his time at work. As the oldest child, Laura would have been expected to help raise her younger brothers and sisters. In time, Laura’s father heard the Canadian government was offering land to settlers. Canada at that time was still a part of the British Empire. After what must have been a difficult decision, her father moved the family to Ontario. Two years later, at the age of 22, Laura met and married James Secord, a Canadian with strong ties to the King of England. After the wedding, Laura and her new husband moved away to another town. Unfortunately, arguments were growing between the United States and Great Britain. Eventually the arguing led to war. In 1812, the United States army invaded Canada. Laura’s husband James joined the army, yet was soon wounded in battle. He returned home to recover. While he rested, the Americans occupied Laura's new town. The American army forced Laura to quarter some soldiers in her home. One day, while serving a meal for American officers, she overheard them discussing plans for an attack. The Americans expected to take the British army by surprise and destroy it. This would allow them to drive the British from Canada, and possibly cause Laura’s new country to lose the war. Laura felt she had to do something. That night, she left her husband alone and snuck out to warn the British army. As she was leaving, an American guard stopped Laura and demanded to know where she was going. Thinking quickly, Laura told the guard that she was going to milk a cow. The American believed her, and she was able to slip away. The journey was long and difficult. Laura had to avoid American scouts. She traveled many hours in the dark before stumbling into a camp of Native warriors. Luckily, the Natives were friends of the British. They gave Laura shelter then led her to the British camp. With the help of Laura and the Natives, the British ambushed the Americans and defeated them. Laura’s new home was safe. Though she received little reward for her devotion and bravery, Laura Se cord still is considered a folk hero by many Canadian.
What is the best explanation for Laura's motivation to warn the British?
A. Although Laura was new to Canada, she still thought of herself as an American.
B. Laura's father had taught her a deep respect for the military and she wanted to help.
C. Laura was only interested in saving her husband's life and felt this was the best way.
D. Laura felt a stronger bond to her new home of Canada than the country of her birth.s.
Answers
Even though she was born in America, it was clear that Laura wanted her new home in Canada to remain the way that it was. Because of this, she warned the British soldiers (fighting for Canada) about the American's attack plan and they were able to defeat the Americans.

Read this excerpt from Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address and then answer the question that follows:
(1) Four score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation: conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war ... testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated ... can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war.
(2) We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that this nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate ... we cannot consecrate ... we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.

2) Welcoming has a positive meaning. This is because it is usually a good feeling to feel welcomed somewhere.
3) Whipped has a negative meaning. This is because whipped is not a positive meaning. In the sentence shown, the last words are "in pieces" meaning that it probably doesn't feel good to be whipped..

i have an awful time trying to understand poems and stories before the 1900's, so i need assistance understanding one of the possible answers in this question i was given.
"Which trait is common to the narrators in these excerpts?"
The first story that is given is called "Captain Singleton" By Daniel Dafoe
"At this juncture comes by one of those sort of people who, it seems, made it their business to spirit away little children. This was a hellish trade in those days, and chiefly practised where they found little children very well dressed, or for bigger children, to sell them to the plantations.
The woman, pretending to take me up in her arms and kiss me, and play with me, draws the girl a good way from the house, till at last she makes a fine story to the girl, and bids her go back to the maid, and tell her where she was with the child; that a gentlewoman had taken a fancy to the child, and was kissing of it, but she should not be frighted, or to that purpose; for they were but just there; and so, while the girl went, she carries me quite away."
The second story is called "Moll Flanders", also by Daniel Dafoe
"However it was, this they all agree in, that my mother pleaded her belly, and being found quick with child, she was respited for about seven months; in which time having brought me into the world, and being about again, she was called down, as they term it, to her former judgment, but obtained the favour of being transported to the plantations, and left me about half a year old; and in bad hands, you may be sure.
This is too near the first hours of my life for me to relate anything of myself but by hearsay; it is enough to mention, that as I was born in such an unhappy place, I had no parish to have recourse to for my nourishment in my infancy; nor can I give the least account how I was kept alive, other than that, as I have been told, some relation of my mother's took me away for a while as a nurse, but at whose expense, or by whose direction, I know nothing at all of it."
Now, i can't find which of these answers would best fit the question, because i get so easily lost in the writing style.
Available Answers (They allow me to only pick one by the way.):
-The narrators were born in poverty.
-The narrators were separated from their birth parents.
-The narrators grew up to be criminals.
-The narrators worked hard in life to improve their social status.
-The narrators blamed themselves for their misfortunes.
Answers
The first passage starts with the narrator's opinion of selling children. That gives us an idea of what the second paragraph is about. The sentence where it said the woman pretending to take me in her arms, indicates that the woman is not the narrator's mother but she acts like it. A child would not call his/her mother a woman.
The second passage is clearer with this fact. "and left me about half a year old, and in bad hands". This indicates that the narrator was left with someone besides his/her parents. The "her" the narrator mentions in this passage his/her mother, and when it states that she was transported to the plantation it is inferred that the narrator did not go with her, as it said he/she was left.

What theme other than class, marriage, pride, and prejudice did you notice in your reading of chapters 1-12 of Pride and Prejudice? How does this theme relate to the four themes already discussed in the lesson and listed above? Choose at least one other theme to analyze and relate it to a theme already discussed in the lesson. Compare the ways that Austen chooses to portray both themes.
Answers
Pride and prejudice are extremely intimately tied to human nature, which is itself related to bias and judgment. It would be quite difficult to tie marriage to human nature. Because human nature is connected to many subjects and is somewhat less obvious than most themes, it is frequently used as a theme.
What is Pride and prejudice?Pride and Prejudice is fundamentally the love story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, who both have to go past their prejudices in order to find each other. In order to come to embrace the other's goodness of character, both characters must unlearn their pride and prejudice throughout the course of the story.
You should read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen at least once in your life. Even if the language is 200 years old, it isn't overly archaic or difficult to read. With her characters, Austen is quite comedic and always offers them happy endings.
Thus, Pride and prejudice are extremely intimately tied to human nature.

Answers
Here are my thoughts from when I read Lord of the Flies:
Piggy is routinely taunted by the other boys because of his size.
Piggy is demonstrably more intellectual than all the other boys, almost certainly making them insecure as a result of their inferiority.
The boys' insecurities prompt them to try to make themselves feel better by bullying Piggy; they pick on his lack of physical strength and power.
They decide to illuminate his weaknesses because they want to see themselves as better than others.

In which sentence is the underlined verb irregular? We brought a picnic lunch when we toured the monuments in Washington, D.C. We have planned a trip to Washington, D.C., to tour its many monuments. We walked several blocks to tour the monuments in Washington, D.C.
Answers
Brought is the only irregular verb in the sentences. It is irregular because it does not follow the regular rules to change from present to past. You switch bring to brought NOT bringed.
The correct answer is We brought a picnic lunch when we toured the monuments in Washington, D.C. In this sentence, the verb is bought, which is the past tense of bring. The verbs in the other sentences are regular verbs because they form their different tenses according to an established pattern, in this case, to make the past and past participle, the particle –ed was added to the verb: walk-walked; plan-planned. Irregular verbs do not follow an established pattern, thus, here the past tense of bring is not bringed but brought.
Which monarch's (member of royalty) break with the Catholic church enabled Shakespeare's career?
Answers
Answer:
King Henry VIII
Explanation:
In England the king conflicted with the Catholic Church. Henry VIII broke with the papacy using personal problems: intended to undo his marriage to Catherine of Aragon to marry Anne Boleyn, claiming to want an heir to the throne of England.
As Catherine was an aunt of Charles V, emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, then at war with Luther, he did not grant the annulment, so as not to clash with Charles V, his religious ally. In 1534, Henry VIII officially broke with the Church of Rome by publishing in Parliament the Act of Supremacy, document by which he became head of the Church in England, later called Anglican. Excommunicated by the pope, Henry VIII, in reprisal, confiscated the assets of the Catholic Church in England.

Answers
Answer:
c: In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt named Devils Tower in Wyoming the first national monument.
Explanation:
Final answer:
The title 'President' should be capitalized when directly before a name, 'Devils Tower' is a proper noun and should be capitalized, and 'national monument' should not be capitalized as it is a common noun.
Explanation:
The correct capitalization for the title in the sentence should be: 'In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt named Devils Tower in Wyoming the first national monument.'
Titles such as 'President' when used directly before the name of a president, are capitalized. Additionally, the names of specific places such as 'Devils Tower' are considered proper nouns and should be capitalized. However, the term 'national monument' is not capitalized unless it is part of a specific name or at the start of a sentence.
