Answer:
The main difference between past simple and past continuous tense is that:
we use past simple tense when something happened at some time in past. We also commonly use this tense with past time adverbs (yesterday, last night, two days ago, etc.)For example: John called his friend yesterday.
we use past continuous tense if an action occurred in the past and lasted for a period of time.Example: I was reading a book all day yesterday.
We used past continuous tense because the action of reading lasted for some time (a whole day in this case).

Read the excerpt from "I Believe in a British Empire” by Joseph Chamberlain.
I believe in a British Empire, in an Empire which, though it should be its first duty to cultivate friendship with all the nations of the world, should yet, even if alone, be self-sustaining and self-sufficient, able to maintain itself against the competition of all its rivals. And I do not believe in a Little England which shall be separated from all those to whom it would in the natural course look for support and affection, a Little England which would then be dependent absolutely on the mercy of those who envy its present prosperity, and who have shown they are ready to do all in their power to prevent its future union with the British races throughout the world.
Read the excerpt from "A Tryst with Destiny” by Jawaharlal Nehru.
We are citizens of a great country, on the verge of bold advance, and we have to live up to that high standard. All of us, to whatever religion we may belong, are equally the children of India with equal rights, privileges and obligations. We cannot encourage communalism or narrow-mindedness, for no nation can be great whose people are narrow in thought or in action.
To the nations and peoples of the world we send greetings and pledge ourselves to cooperate with them in furthering peace, freedom and democracy.
And to India, our much-loved motherland, the ancient, the eternal and the ever-new, we pay our reverent homage and we bind ourselves afresh to her service. Jai Hind [Victory to India].
Which statement best compares and contrasts the conclusions of these passages?
a. Both conclusions wish other nations of the world well, but Chamberlain advocates imperialism, while Nehru advocates freedom for India.
b. Both conclusions advocate freedom of religion, but Chamberlain wants a separate England, while Nehru wants unity with England.
c. Both conclusions encourage the union of British people, but Chamberlain considers other countries rivals, while Nehru cooperates with them.
d. Both conclusions describe other nations as competition, but Chamberlain wants peace, while Nehru wants democracy.
Answer:
A. Both conclusions wish other nations of the world well, but Chamberlain advocates imperialism, while Nehru advocates freedom for India.
Explanation:
Joseph Chamberlain's (8 July 1836 – 2 July 1914) concluding phrase "future union with the British races throughout the world", the title of the text "I Believe in a British Empire" and the start of the text all show that Chamberlain is advocating British imperialism.
Jawaharlal Nehru's (14 November 1889 – 27 May 1964) "the eternal and the ever-new, we pay our reverent homage and we bind ourselves afresh to her service" and "pledge ourselves to cooperate with them in furthering peace, freedom and democracy." show that he is advocating freedom for India as well as democracy and peace.
Option B is not correct as Chamberlain says nothing about religion, is against separate England. And Nehru clearly demands freedom for India.
Option C is not correct Because Nehru says nothing directly about British people.
Option D is not correct because Chamberlain's text says nothing about peace, and Nehru's text nothing about competition.
Final answer:
The best comparison of the passages suggests that both authors wish well for other nations but diverge in ideology; Chamberlain advocates for a powerful, independent British Empire, while Nehru promotes an independent India collaborating with the global community for wider peace and democracy. So, the correct option is (a).
Explanation:
The statement that best compares and contrasts the conclusions of the passages from "I Believe in a British Empire" by Joseph Chamberlain and "A Tryst with Destiny" by Jawaharlal Nehru is: Both conclusions wish other nations of the world well, but Chamberlain advocates imperialism, while Nehru advocates freedom for India.
Chamberlain's excerpt reflects an imperialistic view where the British Empire should remain powerful and self-sustaining, even if isolated from other nations, to preserve its prosperity and influence. Contrastingly, Nehru's excerpt celebrates India's impending independence, emphasizes unity regardless of religion, and advocates for cooperation with other nations to promote peace, freedom, and democracy. Where Chamberlain sees other countries as rivals and competition, Nehru sees them as potential partners.
The historical context helps to understand these differing perspectives, with Nehru's India on the cusp of independence after a long struggle against colonial rule, as opposed to Chamberlain's era of British dominance and colonization.
18. "... Thousands at [God's] bidding speed/And post o'er land and ocean without rest:/They also serve who only stand and wait."
Which of these beliefs is expressed in this excerpt from John Milton's "When I Consider How My Light Is Spent"?
A) God sends angels to whisper His will into people's ears.
B) A person who does not dream of greatness cannot have faith in God.
C) A person does not have to accomplish great things to serve God.
D) God expects people to work very hard to please Him.
Answer:
C) A person does not have to accomplish great things to serve God.
Explanation:
These are last lines from John Milton’s (9 December 1608 – 8 November 1674) one of the most famous short poems "When I Consider How My Light is Spent" or alternatively known as “On His Blindness”.
In the context of these lines Milton compares God with a King and contrasts Him with a lord. In these lines Milton says that God has innumerable (thousands) working at his state moving speedily from place to place (Thousands at his bidding speed). These tasks need men to have light and vision. Since God has innumerable resources he does not need every one to do an active work. Sometimes God also appoints some people on standby and work when the right time comes.
In brief, Milton being previously very active in social and political matters of the country knows that working actively for God is a good deed. But those who are physically hampered (like Milton) also serve God in waiting for their turn to accomplish a task when it is assigned.

This excerpt shows an example of conflict between the
disapproving pigs and
Napoleon
nature
themselves.
Boxer.
Excerpt: Napoleon, with the dogs following him, now mounted on to the raised portion of the floor where Major had previously stood to deliver his speech. He announced that from now on the Sunday-morning Meetings would come to an end. They were unnecessary, he said, and wasted time. In future all questions relating to the working of the farm would be settled by a special committee of pigs, presided over by himself. These would meet in private and afterwards communicate their decisions to the others. The animals would still assemble on Sunday mornings to salute the flag, sing "Beasts of England,” and receive their orders for the week; but there would be no more debates.
In spite of the shock that Snowball's expulsion had given them, the animals were dismayed by this announcement. Several of them would have protested if they could have found the right arguments. Even Boxer was vaguely troubled. He set his ears back, shook his forelock several times, and tried hard to marshal his thoughts; but in the end he could not think of anything to say. Some of the pigs themselves, however, were more articulate. Four young porkers in the front row uttered shrill squeals of disapproval, and all four of them sprang to their feet and began speaking at once. But suddenly the dogs sitting round Napoleon let out deep, menacing growls, and the pigs fell silent and sat down again. Then the sheep broke out into a tremendous bleating of "Four legs good, two legs bad!" which went on for nearly a quarter of an hour and put an end to any chance of discussion.
Afterwards Squealer was sent round the farm to explain the new arrangement to the others.
Answer: Napoleon
Explanation:
This is an excerpt from ''Animal Farm'' by George Orwell in which we can see example of a conflict between disapproving pigs and Napoleon because the pigs were disapproved with Napoleon. In this excerpt we can see the situation when Napoleon made an unfair decision toward animals.The animals were not feeling respected because their opinions and ideas weren't heard. Those animals are not considered as intelligent as the pigs and they were incapable for fighting and arguing with others so the four pigs were talking about their ideas and worries.
The excerpt shows an example of conflict between the disapproving pigs and Napoleon. Option A is the correct answer.
In the passage, Napoleon, accompanied by his dogs, announces that the Sunday-morning Meetings will be abolished and that a special committee of pigs, presided over by himself, will make decisions regarding the working of the farm. Option A is the correct answer.
This decision is met with dismay and disapproval from the animals, including some of the pigs themselves. Four young porkers in the front row express their disapproval, but they are silenced by the menacing growls of the dogs that surround Napoleon. The sheep also interrupt any chance of discussion with their repeated chanting of "Four legs good, two legs bad!"
This conflict highlights the power struggle between Napoleon and the other animals on the farm. The disapproving pigs, including the four young porkers, represent those who challenge Napoleon's authority and disagree with his decision-making. However, Napoleon asserts his dominance by using the intimidating presence of his loyal dogs to suppress any opposition. This conflict illustrates the authoritarian nature of Napoleon's rule and the lack of democratic decision-making on the farm.

Answer:Shakespeare wrote iambic pentameter because that was the most common verse meter of the time. He didn't establish it. Edmund Spenser used it in The Faerie Queene
Explanation:
Answer:
It creates a lyrical flow and tight structure that is pleasing to the ear and more memorable to the audience and the actors, but it also sounds like natural human speech and doesn't create a singsongy rhythm as some other meters (including trochaic tetrameter) can do.

There's more water than just what you can see. You see water all around you every day as lakes, rivers, ice, rain and snow. There are also vast amounts of water that are unseen---water existing in the ground. And even though groundwater is unseen, it is moving below your feet right now. As part of the water cycle, groundwater is a major contributor to flow in many streams and rivers and has a strong influence on river and wetland habitats for plants and animals. People have been using groundwater for thousands of years and continue to use it today, largely for drinking water and irrigation. Life on Earth depends on groundwater just as it does on surface water. There are rivers flowing below our feet... a myth? Have you ever heard that there are rivers of water flowing underground? Do you think it is true? Actually, it is pretty much a myth. Even though there are some caverns, lava and ice tubes, and horizontal occupies the spaces between rocks and subsurface material. Some rivers , such as the Alapaha River in northern Florida, USA, can disappear underground during low-flow periods. Generally, water underground is more like water in a sponge. It occupies the spaces between soil and rock particles. At a certain depth below the land surface, the spaces between soil and rock particles can be totally filled with water, resulting in an aquifer from which groundwater can be pumped and used by people.

Final answer:
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow narrates the story of Ichabod Crane and his encounters with the supernatural in a haunted village, focusing on his confrontation with the Headless Horseman leading to his mysterious disappearance.
Explanation:
The main plot of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow focuses on the supernatural stories prevalent in the Sleepy Hollow region, which are heavily influenced by its haunting atmosphere and history. The story principally follows Ichabod Crane, a schoolteacher who becomes entwined with the legend of the Headless Horseman, a fearsome specter said to haunt the area. Crane's encounter with the ghostly horseman and the mysterious, supernatural elements of Sleepy Hollow play a central role, leading to Ichabod's eventual disappearance under eerie circumstances.
Ichabod's fascination with the local tales of ghosts and his fear of the Headless Horseman climax in a precarious night ride, which is believed to result in his own spectral fate. The people of Sleepy Hollow hold various superstitions and reported sightings of ghosts, including not only the Headless Horseman but other spirits such as a woman in white. The eerie, dreamlike quality of the village and its legends cast a spell over its inhabitants and contribute to the mysterious disappearance of Ichabod, leaving the story open to interpretation and the imagination.
what does hazel notice and remember others saying to her
Book the fault in our stars
Explanation:
This situation when Hazel remembers things that other people had say to her is from the book ''The Fault in our Stars'' which is the book about a girl, Hazel, who had cancer disease.
She was fighting cancer and other were aware of that. When Maria said that she would not be a good candidate, Hazel remembers the situation when she was in very bad condition. She remembered that her mom said ''I won't be a mom anymore'' and she thought that Hazel would not hear that but she did and later on, she remembered that.
Inquiries into what Hazel notices and remembers from others touch upon themes of personal revelation, transformation, and the significant impact of memorable observations. Literary excerpts illustrate such moments of clarity across various contexts.
Explanation:The question regarding what Hazel notices and remembers others saying to her, although seemingly referencing The Fault in Our Stars, actually mixes references from various literary sources. However, focusing on the sentiment expressed in the initial query, it reveals key themes such as the impact of youth, the haunting beauty of nature, and the transformative power of personal insight. For instance, in the provided texts, characters experience profound revelations triggered by encounters with nature, introspection, and pivotal moments of realization, which profoundly change their understanding of themselves and the world around them.
These literary excerpts often highlight moments of lucidity and transformation where characters, much like Hazel is presumed, notice and remember insightful and transformative observations made by themselves or others. Whether it's the reference to stars that prompts a reflection on youth and dreams, or the poignant moments of introspection and realization found in characters' interactions, these narratives underscore the enduring impact of significant realizations and memories.
The satirical tone of this passage from Swift’s “A Modest Proposal” is best described as _______.
Answer:
the 2 option
Explanation:
Drag each label to the correct category.
Match the quotes with the literary devices they use.
"O miserable abundance, O
beggarly riches!"
- John Donne
"What a pity that youth must
be wasted on the young."
- George Bernard Shaw
"I can resist anything but
temptation."
- Oscar Wilde
"How is it possible to have a
civil war?
- George Carlin
Paradox
Oxymoron
Answer:
Oxymoron:
1: O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!
Paradoxes:
2: What a pity that youth must be wasted on the young.
3: I can resist anything but temptation.
4: How is it possible to have a civil war?
Explanation:
Oxymoron:
It is a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction.
e.g Fully empty, living death, O loving hate.
Based on this definition only "O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!" falls under the category of Oxymoron.
Paradox: It is similar to oxymoron, but it is usually a statement with logically contradictory statements which on investigation may or may not be logically true.
e.g "Everything I say is lie" , Barber Paradox: "A male barber shaves all and only those men who don’t shave themselves. Does he shave himself?"
As we can find out there are no contradictory terms/words, but the statements which may contradict each other.
Based on the above, we conclude that sentence 2, 3 and 4 are Paradoxes.
In identifying literary devices, the quotes by John Donne, George Bernard Shaw, and Oscar Wilde are examples of paradoxes, as they present contradictions that may hold deeper truths, while the quote by George Carlin is an oxymoron because it juxtaposes contradictory terms.
Explanation:The student's task to match the quotes with the literary devices they use involves identifying whether a given quote is an example of a paradox or an oxymoron. A paradox is a seemingly self-contradictory statement or proposition that may in fact be true, whereas an oxymoron is a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction.
"O miserable abundance, O beggarly riches!" by John Donne would be considered a paradox as it presents a seemingly contradictory situation that prompts the reader to think about how one can be rich yet still feel poor."What a pity that youth must be wasted on the young." by George Bernard Shaw is also a paradox, as it highlights the irony that youth, with all its opportunities, is often not appreciated until it's gone."I can resist anything but temptation." by Oscar Wilde is another paradox, playfully suggesting the impossibility of resisting temptation, as the nature of temptation is something that is not easily resisted."How is it possible to have a civil war?" by George Carlin is an example of an oxymoron because it combines the terms 'civil' and 'war,' which are ordinarily seen as opposites, to question the concept of a war being civil.What does integrate mean
Answer: To combine (one thing) with another so that they become a whole.

The browser internet explorer prefers which search engine
Answer:
google or safari
Explanation:
Internet Explorer, developed by Microsoft, primarily uses Microsoft's own search engine, Bing. However, users may choose to change the default setting. In 2015, a court case confirmed companies' right to set their own search engine as default.
Explanation:The Internet Explorer web browser, included by default with Microsoft's Windows operating system, primarily uses the Bing search engine. This preferential use results from both being products of the Microsoft Corporation. However, setting a default search engine is a common practice within the industry and has been upheld in court as fair, as demonstrated in 2015 when antitrust charges against G-oogle for setting itself as the default search engine on mobile devices were dismissed.

How do I relate to the main character?
Have I ever experienced something similar in my own life? How or how not?
Answer:
How is this story like my life?How is this story unlike my life?How do I relate to the main character?Have I ever experienced something similar in my own life?Explanation:
This story is like my life because I experience many insecurities that I know affect me in many ways, yet I do not fully understand what they are. Many times I feel like the most serious of threats come from within, and yet I am powerless to stop them and can only watch in horror and then lament my poor decisions. This story is unlike my life because my father never really tried to mimic anything. He has always been quite frank with us. He never tried to change us or sway us into thinking a certain way. My life is also quite distinct because my behavior does not reflect so much the place I was raised the person I consciously chose to be as soon as I was able to make such decisions. I relate to the feeling of hopelessness and vulnerability that the main character feels. Being different or being in a new place is incredibly disconcerting, but the feeling of insecurity in an unknown place is even more terrifying and can become overwhelming unless addressed in a prompt manner. I also appreciate the main characters sensitivity to nature and the parallelisms through which she views the world. I myself have not had such a surreal and transcendental experience in my life, but I have dreamed of similar scenarios. Many times various factors have threatened to produce a similar sensation, but somehow a last-minute decision that saves at least a part of the sanity associated with knowing what is happening around us saves the occasion.From the story “The Cat That Walked by Himself” by Rudyard Kipling what were some character traits of the cat?
Answer:
“The Cat That Walked by Himself” by Rudyard Kipling gives us an insight into the character traits of the cat.
Explanation:
The short story is basically an allegory stating about the history of animal domestication. The dog, cow, and the horse were tamed to become familiar domestic versions of themselves over the course of history but cats are different.
Most domesticated animals were bent to the will of humans and cats were kept to get rid of rodents. The cat in the story is ready to trade some of his autonomy for comfort, but is adamant about surrendering his identity and freedom.

What is the level of formality of the discussion?
Answer:
1: Topic of the discussion is Global Warming.
2: The audience of the discussion is Jorge's class fellows.
3: The Purpose of the discussion is improving student's presentation skills and knowledge about the topic.
4: Level of formality is semi-formal.
Explanation:
1:
The phrase "Jorge reviewed his notes about global warming before presenting to the class" tells us that the topic of Jorge’s presentation is "Global Warming” (a gradual increase in earth’s overall average temperature because of the increase in greenhouse effect). The students also had to discuss this topic and ask questions from Jorge after his short presentation.
2:
"share their findings with the class" shows that Jorge’s audience is his class. The primary audience and main focus of Jorge’s presentation is his class, however their teacher Mrs. Herbert would also be present as an observer and for final evaluation. So he has to prepare his presentation keeping both (students and teacher) in mind. He has to explain all the concepts and technical terms considering his class level.
3:
"after his short presentation, the class would ask questions and discuss" this phrase shows that the purpose of the discussion is to share the knowledge and improve students' presentation skills. First they have to do a proper research and include relevant, clear and correct content in right order. They will also get a chance to explain some difficult concepts and topics.
4: Level of Formality
We choose highly formal style when talking to unknown audience or during job interviews, writing academic essays, presentations or letters to someone whom we don’t know personally.
We select semi-formal style when talking to well-known individuals, like our teachers and elders,
And we use informal style only with our very close friends with whom we usually spend a lot of time, like class mates, team mates etc.
The topic of the discussion is global warming. The audience of the discussion is Jorge's classmates. The purpose of the discussion is likely educational, aiming to inform the classmates about global warming and encourage engagement through questions and discussion.
Additionally, the discussion may serve to develop critical thinking skills and foster a deeper understanding of the topic among the students.
The level of formality of the discussion is semi-formal, given that it takes place within a classroom setting where students are expected to present and discuss their research findings. However, it may also have an informal element as it involves students sharing their individual research experiences and engaging in dialogue with their peers and teacher.When managers try to analyze a problem or opportunity, identify different courses of action, and select and implement what they perceive to be the optimum course of action, they are using _______ skills.
