Select the correct text in the passage. Which sentence in this excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Four Freedoms” speech suggests that the US government would gain more power to prepare for war? The Congress, of course, must rightly keep itself informed at all times of the progress of the program. However, there is certain information, as the Congress itself will readily recognize, which, in the interests of our own security and those of the nations that we are supporting, must of needs be kept in confidence. New circumstances are constantly begetting new needs for our safety. I shall ask this Congress for greatly increased new appropriations and authorizations to carry on what we have begun. I also ask this Congress for authority and for funds sufficient to manufacture additional munitions and war supplies of many kinds, to be turned over to those nations which are now in actual war with aggressor nations. Our most useful and immediate role is to act as an arsenal for them as well as for ourselves. They do not need man power, but they do need billions of dollars worth of the weapons of defense. The time is near when they will not be able to pay for them all in ready cash. We cannot, and we will not, tell them that they must surrender, merely because of present inability to pay for the weapons which we know they must have. I do not recommend that we make them a loan of dollars with which to pay for these weapons—a loan to be repaid in dollars.

Question asked:What is a main purpose of a novel?

A. A novel describes an author's personal life and most memorable experiences.

B. A novel is a nonfiction piece of writing that contains data and facts.

C. A novel is a fictional narrative that provides a deeper understanding of human nature.

D. A novel is a short fictional narrative that focuses mostly on events.

My answer: I believe it is D.

The correct answer is C. A novel is a fictional narrative that provides a deeper understanding of human nature. The new romances challenged the idea that the novel involved a realistic depictions of life, and destabilized the difference the critics had been trying to establish, between serious classical art and popular fiction. The authors of popular fiction tend to advertise that they have exploited a controversial topic and this is a major difference between them and so-called elitist literature. The proposal of novels is also to make writing accessible to a larger audience at a lower cost.

Lana has finished writing her research paper. What should she do next? A. Take a break—she deserves it B. Revise the substance of what she's written C. Turn it in to her instructor as soon as possible D. Proofread for small errors

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Just took the test on edementum!

Final answer:

After finishing her research paper, Lana should revise to improve content and structure, edit for language and flow, and proofread for small errors before submitting her paper.

Explanation:

After Lana has finished writing her research paper, the next step she should take is to revise the substance of what she's written. Revising is a crucial part of the writing process where she can clarify ideas, smooth out rough spots, and develop her arguments more thoroughly. Additionally, she can work on the structure of her paper to ensure her thesis is well supported throughout.

Once Lana is satisfied with the substance of her paper, it is important to edit for sentence variety, word choice, and verb tense consistency. Reading the composition out loud can help with checking for overused words and ensuring sentences flow smoothly. This step also helps in maintaining a coherent and engaging narrative throughout the paper.

Lastly, Lana should proofread for small errors such as grammar, punctuation, and spelling. Proofreading is the final check to catch minor errors that might have been overlooked during the revision and editing phases. It is often helpful to read the paper with fresh eyes after a short break or to have a peer or tutor provide feedback before considering the paper ready to be turned in to the instructor.

Imagine you are trying to convince your district's school board that eliminating elective courses for struggling students is a bad idea.Which appeal would most likely move this audience to support your case

Answers

Bad students need time away from required courses in order to focus more intently in the courses they are required to take. School is stressful, time away from school to re-charge helps resolve this. Taking a course that is elected will help a student feel better, less stressed, and more apt to succeed at school.
Struggling students may find it difficult to find the motivation for core classes. Allowing them an alternate outlet for creativity will help them to feel school can be a positive place.
As for which appeal? Do you mean like pathos, logos or ethos? Most likely pathos.

If there is no mistake, choose ‘Correct as is.’ A) Correct as is.

D) Then all the gods wept, the summer breeze wailed, the leaves were falling from the sorrowing trees, the flowers were fading and died from grief, and the earth grew stiff and cold.

Answers

The correct answer that corrects the mistake found in the sentence presented is B) Then all the gods wept, the summer breeze wailed, the leaves fell from the sorrowing trees, the flowers faded and died from grief, and the earth grew stiff and cold.

The sentence narrates a series of events that happened all together, in a sequence. The last event numbered "and the earth stiff and cold" (in the original) is incomplete because a verb is missing after the word "earth". All of the other verbs in the sentence are in the Simple Past ("wept", "wailed", "fell", "faded" and "died"), so, the missing verb would have to be in Simple Past too. Therefore, the option that best corrects the sentence, by adding a verb in its Simple Past tense where it was missing, is option B.

Answer A couldn't be correct because the sentence is not correct as is, a verb is missing at the end. Answer C couldn't be correct because the verb added "was growing" is in Past Continuous tense, not following the pattern established by the other verbs in the sentence and breaking their sequence. Answer D couldn't be correct because it changes the verbs in "the leaves fell from the sorrowing trees, the flowers faded (...)" from Simple Past to Past Continuous tense, without changing the other ones and adding the missing verb in its Simple Past tense too, which creates disagreement between verbal tenses' use.

the answer is B) Then all the gods wept, the summer breeze wailed, the leaves fell from the sorrowing trees, the flowers faded and died from grief, and the earth grew stiff and cold.

What is with Mr. Hooper's sad or melancholy smile? Hawthorne mentions this many times. Why is he smiling like this and so frequently?

Answers

In Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Minister's Black Veil", Minister Hooper's sad or melancholic smile possesses many interpretations due to the nature of the story and the time it was written, so it doesn't hold a sole or exclusive signification. Among the different alternatives, there is:  

1. The sadness of being misunderstood on the message that he was trying to get across the people of the town (The idea was that everyone wears a veil - hiding behind a facade - to keep a secret or sin from society). The difference is that he did it on the outside instead that on the inside.

2. How people opted to fear, avoid or question him as soon as he started to wear the veil.

3. While he tried several times to explain the motives behind his veil wearing, the attempts were unsuccessful and after a while, he just chose to smile instead of trying to make his parishes understand his actions.

Final answer:

Mr. Hooper's melancholy smile symbolizes his inner turmoil and the recognition of life's pervasive sorrow, representing a deeper understanding of human struggles and imperfection as often depicted in works by Hawthorne.

Explanation:

In the context of the references provided, Mr. Hooper's melancholy smile represents a deep and pervasive sorrow or sadness that is present beneath the surface of the characters' experiences. This type of smile, which is mentioned repeatedly in works by Hawthorne and others, signifies a recognition of life's underlying struggles and the complexities of the human condition. The smile is not one of joy, but rather a telling sign of inner turmoil, a grim acknowledgment of imperfection, or perhaps a quiet resignation to the tragic aspects of existence.

Characters in literature who exhibit a melancholy smile are often carrying a heavy emotional or psychological burden, which affects their perception of the world and those around them. This smile can suggest an intimate understanding of the sadness that exists in life, a wisdom that comes from experience, or the cost of knowledge that they have acquired which separates them from others who might not be as aware or affected.

1. As you brainstorm, don’t limit yourself to a certain kind of story. List different kinds of narratives. Narratives may be fictional or nonfiction and may come from history and biography, from your family, or from your own experience. • List five narratives that have stayed with you long after you heard or read them. Explain why these stories have had lasting relevance for you. • Of the stories you have listed, which are familiar enough to you that you could retell them with confidence and enjoyment? If any would require some research, where could you get this information? • How does each of the stories you have listed relate to your audience? What themes or main ideas could you draw out of each story to make it relevant to your listeners?

Answers

This one is a little more of a personal question, a matter of your own opinion. Simply choose 5 stories you liked and why they stayed with you so long.

Example: “ ‘Azathoth’ by H.P. Lovecraft is one of my favorite stories because it made me think of he possibilities of life and our reality. “

Final answer:

When brainstorming different kinds of narratives, it is important to consider both fictional and nonfiction stories. Here are five narratives that have stayed with me: The Great Gatsby, Night by Elie Wiesel, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank, and The Lord of the Rings. Each of these stories has had lasting relevance for different reasons and can be retold confidently and with enjoyment. They relate to the audience through their exploration of themes like wealth, love, racial injustice, morality, and epic battles between good and evil.

Explanation:

When brainstorming different kinds of narratives, it is important to consider both fictional and nonfictional stories. Narratives can come from different sources like history, biography, family, or personal experiences. Here are five narratives that have stayed with me:

The Great Gatsby: This fictional story explores themes of wealth, love, and the American Dream. It has had lasting relevance for me due to its examination of the pursuit of happiness and the consequences of excess.Night by Elie Wiesel: This nonfiction narrative recounts Wiesel's experiences during the Holocaust. It has had a lasting impact because it shed light on the unimaginable horrors of war and the resilience of the human spirit.To Kill a Mockingbird: This novel by Harper Lee addresses themes of racial injustice, morality, and growing up in the American South. It resonates with me because it teaches important lessons about empathy and standing up for what is right.The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank: This diary documents Anne Frank's experiences while hiding from the Nazis during World War II. It is a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit and the importance of hope in the face of adversity.The Lord of the Rings: This fantasy epic by J.R.R. Tolkien explores themes of friendship, sacrifice, and the battle between good and evil. It has had lasting relevance for me because of its timeless lessons about the power of courage and perseverance.

Of these stories, I could confidently retell The Great Gatsby, To Kill a Mockingbird, and The Lord of the Rings with enjoyment. However, Night and The Diary of a Young Girl would require some research for a more accurate retelling. I can find additional information on these narratives through books, articles, or online sources.

Each of these stories has a relevance to different audiences. The Great Gatsby explores universal themes like wealth, love, and the pursuit of happiness, making it relatable to a wide range of listeners. To Kill a Mockingbird addresses issues of racial injustice, which are still relevant today, and can spark important discussions about morality and empathy. The Lord of the Rings appeals to fans of fantasy and adventure, but also delves into deeper themes like the battle between good and evil, appealing to the human fascination with epic tales of heroism.
