Thus, in the final analysis, American strategy in Vietnam consists of creating a killing machine in the form of a highly equipped expeditionary corps and then turning this machine on the enemy in the hope that over the years enough killing will be done to force the enemy’s collapse through exhaustion and despair. This strategy, although possibly the only feasible alternative open to a modern industrial power in such a situation, is of necessity brutal and heedless of many of its victims. What is the philosophical concept in this excerpt? Modern war is inherently violent and unfair. The machinery of war has significantly changed. America’s enemies are weak and defenseless. Military corps are trained to defeat the enemy.
A: Modern war is inherently violent and unfair.
^this is the answer
The correct answer is A: Modern war is inherently violent and unfair.
In this passage, the author describes American strategy in Vietnam. Specifically, the strategy involved taking highly trained soldiers and equipping them with weapons. The thinking was that the great resources of the American army would, over time, wear out the enemy, a much poorer nation. Of course, the problem is that it takes time to "wear out" the enemy, and doing so is brutal and violent.
Therefore, the correct answer is A: Modern war is inherently violent and unfair.

Read the beginning of Odysseus’s next adventure. When this story begins, Circe has just finished giving Odysseus advice.
As Circe spoke, Dawn mounted her golden throne,
and on the first rays Circe left me, taking
her way like a great goddess up the island.
I made straight for the ship, roused up the men
to get aboard and cast off at the stern. 5
They scrambled to their places by the rowlocks
and all in line dipped oars in the grey sea.
But soon an off-shore breeze blew to our liking –
a canvas-bellying breeze, a lusty shipmate
sent by the singing nymph with sunbright
hair.10
So we made fast the braces, and we rested,
letting the wind and steersman work the ship.

The National Basketball Association (NBA) tried something new in 2006. It started using synthetic basketballs instead of leather basketballs. Leather basketballs are not all exactly the same. They range in their weight and the way they bounce. Synthetic balls, though, could be made so each ball weighed and bounced exactly the same. However, players complained that the synthetic balls were slippery when wet, too sticky when dry, and the material left tiny, painful cuts on their hands similar to paper cuts. After six months, the NBA returned to using leather basketballs.
The players were _________ with the synthetic balls.

Read the text and answer the following question.
In ancient literature, the genre which most closely approximates the novel is the epic. Works such as Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey as well as Virgil’s Aeneid, though poetry, are long narratives centered around certain key events and characters with heroic or cowardly actions that determine, not only their own fates, but also those of the nations which they led. The novel carries this tradition on, but in a reduced scope. The novel is much more localized, centering on characters in local settings, whose actions affect themselves and perhaps a few members of their local community.
What is the main idea in the text?
Epic poems are greater in scope than novels.
Epic poetry was a precursor to the novel.
Epic poetry is poetry; novels are prose.
Answer:
The main idea in the text is that Epic poetry was a precursor to the novel.
Explanation:
This excerpt gives a clear and concise description of the main characteristics of each kind of style, it is also expressed that the epic poetry has several elements in common with the modern novel, with a difference in the scope of the way the decisions of the characters affect others apart from themselves, being the novel more focused in the characters.
Read the excerpt from Part 2 of "The Most Dangerous Game,” by Richard Connell. Following the trail with the sureness of a bloodhound came General Zaroff. Nothing escaped those searching black eyes, no crushed blade of grass, no bent twig, no mark, no matter how faint, in the moss. So intent was the Cossack on his stalking that he was upon the thing Rainsford had made before he saw it. His foot touched the protruding bough that was the trigger. Even as he touched it, the general sensed his danger and leaped back with the agility of an ape. But he was not quite quick enough; the dead tree, delicately adjusted to rest on the cut living one, crashed down and struck the general a glancing blow on the shoulder as it fell; but for his alertness, he must have been smashed beneath it. What is the most likely reason the film adaptation changes this scene so that General Zaroff shoots arrows at Rainsford and his companion? to increase the number of props to create an opportunity for added dialogue to add a visual that creates suspense to make the setting seem more realistic
The most likely reason that the film adaption of "The Most Dangerous Game" changes this scene so that General Zaroff shoots arrows at Rainsford and his companion is to add a visual that creates suspense. The creators of the movie would have wanted the viewers to question what would happen. If they would have tried to portray this scene as in the book it would have been difficult to receive the same reaction as is created by reading the scene.

1. What is the conflict in Antigone.
2. What is the theme in Antigone.
3. How does the conflict help develop the theme you identified? Be specific and use evidence from the text to support your answers.
Answer:
Antigone, an ancient Greek tragedy by Sophocles, influenced by the political and socio cultural life of Athens after a civil war.
I would say this story sorrounds several themes I could identify, such as "The relation between Power, Fate and Mortality", also "Law and Justice" or "The Role of Women in Society".
The conflict in Antigone is built in the problems of law and justice, portrayed by the strife between Creon and Antigone.
Creon is one of those characters that rely on the appeal of ethos to develop an argument, like when he states not to give a proper burial to Polynices' body because he led the forces that invaded Thebes, however Antigone urges justice with giving her brother a right burial.
Explanation:
In 'Antigone', the conflict arises due to Antigone's decision to defy King Creon's edict by burying her brother, illustrating the theme of individual conscience versus obedience to human law.
Explanation:The conflict in Antigone arises when Antigone, the protagonist, challenges King Creon's edict prohibiting the burial of her brother, Polyneices. She defies the edict out of familial love and loyalty, and a belief that the divine laws supersede man-made laws. Creon, on the other hand, believes in the primacy of State laws and intends to uphold his authority as King. This is an example of a Man vs. Authority conflict.
The theme of the play is the struggle between individual conscience and obedience to human law. Despite Antigone’s death and King Creon's downfall, the moral victory lies with Antigone as she stays true to her conscience and divine law. This theme thus evolved from the conflict in the narrative.
The conflict between Antigone and Creon manifests the thematic conflict between individual conscience and state law. Antigone’s decision to follow divine law, her conscience, and bury her brother led to the play's tragic outcome, reinforcing the theme that blind obedience to human laws may conflict with higher moral duties.

Days after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt addressed Congress, asking for a declaration of war. What is the purpose of repetition in this excerpt from his speech? The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian Islands has caused severe damage to American naval and military forces. I regret to tell you that very many American lives have been lost. In addition, American ships have been reported torpedoed on the high seas between San Francisco and Honolulu. Yesterday the Japanese Government also launched an attack against Malaya. Last night Japanese forces attacked Hong Kong. Last night Japanese forces attacked Guam. Last night Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands. Last night the Japanese attacked Wake Island. And this morning the Japanese attacked Midway Island. Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area. The facts of yesterday and today speak for themselves. The people of the United States have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation. As Commander in Chief of the army and navy I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense. But always will our whole nation remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory. I believe that I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us.
Answer:
C). To emphasize that the Japanese attack was deliberate and treacherous.
Explanation:
Repetition is demonstrated as one of the varied devices that are employed by the authors to convey the intended meaning as it creates a specific effect or emphasizes a particular point to serve the desired purpose of the author(to instill a particular idea or message).
In the given excerpt from President Roosevelt's speech, the purpose of repetition of the idea 'implications(loss of life and safety) led by the Japanese attacks' in order to 'emphasize that these attacks were deliberate and treacherous'. He intends to reflect the damaging impacts (through repetition) of such attacks and imply that these were duplicitous and fraudulent attempts. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
