How does this passage support the theme "following
social rules leads people to avoid risk"?
Read this excerpt from My Antonia.
The country girls were considered a menace to
the social order. Their beauty shone out too boldly
against a conventional background. But anxious
mothers need have felt no alarm. They mistook the
mettle of their sons. The respect for respectability
was stronger than any desire in Black Hawk youth.
The country girls learn the American ways of life
through their contacts with the Black Hawk men and
their mothers.
The country girls are portrayed as vibrant and
beautiful, while the Black Hawk men are portrayed
as conventional and afraid of risks.
The country girls are portrayed as dangerous, which
is why the men and their mothers are afraid of them.
The Black Hawk men learn to take risks and go
against convention by meeting the country girls.

Answers

The first paragraph suggests that both students and teachers prefer the Imperial Book Depot to the bookshop closer to campus. (option C)

What is the first paragraph about?

The first paragraph belongs to a passage from a novel where two young women visit a bookshop. The narrator explains that the Imperial Book Depot is not as close to the campus of the university. However, students and teachers prefer to purchase from it.

The reason for that is the fact that the owners, Yashwant and Balwant, are good people who try their best to help customers and get them the books they want. Even though they are not fluent in English, they are great businessmen.

With the information above in mind, we can select option C as the correct answer.

In your opinion, did Ingrid Jonker use language effectively to create a sense of a particular time and place in "The child
is not dead"? Respond in at least 150 words, giving reasons to support your answer and referring to specific words or
phrases from the poem.

Answers

Yes, Ingrid Jonker did use the language in her poem effectively to create a sense of a particular time and place in "The child is not dead". The event that shes specifically refering to is when a child was shot dead by soldiers in Nyanga. For example, she says in her poem, "The child is not dead not at Langa nor at Nyanga not at Orlando nor at Sharpeville nor at the police station at Philippi where he lies with a bullet through his brain". In this phrase from the poem she's directly referring to the events at multiple places where significant events have happened. Such as referring to Sharpeville Massacre and the later events at Langa and Nyanga where the child was shot in the head. She also says in her poem, "The child is the dark shadow of the soldiers on guard with rifles Saracens and batons the child is present at all assemblies and law-givings". This phrase in the poem demonstrates the kind of time it was in Africa as she also later says, "this child who just wanted to play in the sun at Nyanga is everywhere". It talks about a time when children were not able to be children because of the pressing of apartheid. By giving these specific examples and phrases Ingrid Jonker did use language effectively to create a sense of a particular time and place.

Why are Eastern Indians so successful when they immigrate to the USA???

Answers

The question makes two significant assumptions. First, it assumes that Indian immigrants are more successful than those who don’t immigrate. And second, relevant to this blog, at least part of the explanation is believed to be psychological (which is why I was invited to participate in the event).

In this post, I want to unpack this question. To make the discussion manageable, I’ll focus only on Indian immigrants to the United States, even though the total Indian diaspora is far greater and widespread, and other US immigrant groups are bigger.

Are Indian immigrants to the US successful?

The answer is clearly “yes” no matter which benchmark we use. More than 75 percent of current first-generation Indian-Americans have immigrated to the United States since the 1990s. They make up only about 1 percent of the US population (3.9 million as of 2017) but have disproportionate numbers of professionals such as physicians, corporate executives, and successful entrepreneurs. Their median annual household income is $100,000, which is significantly higher than other immigrant groups or the US population as a whole.  

If we compare these numbers to Indian non-immigrants, the income differences are even larger. As an example, college-educated Indians in India have a household income that is a small fraction of $100,000. Based on these statistics, it seems fair to say that as a group, Indian immigrants to the US are financially successful.

(Note that financial success does not mean success in other life domains. Do Indian immigrants have more fulfilling social lives? Are they more content? Or to drop the H-word, are they happier? These questions are equally important. I’ll address them in future blog posts).

Why are they successful?

They came to America’s shores with only the clothes on their backs and hope welling in their hearts. They slogged away for decades in obscurity and misery, grasping every sliver of opportunity. They lifted themselves up by their bootstraps out of American gutters. Time passed, watered by the sweat streaming off their backs. They scrimped, they saved, penny after penny. After decades of blinding toil, they were earning six-figure incomes. America transformed the huddled unwashed masses of Indians who reached its shores into prosperous business leaders and yuppies who shone as “model immigrants.”

Alas, riveting and uplifting as such a narrative sounds, it is false.

The fact is the success of Indian immigrants can be attributed to a three-level selection process. The first level is education. According to the Immigration Policy Institute, 77 percent of Indian American adults have a college degree. In comparison, only 29 percent of all immigrants and 31 percent of native-born Americans are college graduates. Very few uneducated Indians make it to the US. Organizational psychologists even have a name for this type of immigrants; they are called “qualified immigrants.”The second level of selection is the arduous and lengthy immigration process. Most first-generation Indian-Americans come to the US as students, go on to get a job with an H1-B visa (which involves a lottery), and eventually, after many years, become permanent residents and then US citizens. The entire process is fraught with uncertainty. It vets aspiring immigrants. The people who hang in there from beginning to end are optimistic and gritty. What’s more, because they come as students, they have more opportunities to interact with native-born Americans and consume American culture from their very first day on American soil than other immigrants. This helps them to assimilate and build social capital along the way (if they want to).

The third and perhaps the most significant selection is in who the immigrants are. As authors Amy Chua and Jed Rubenfeld point out, “the great majority of Indian immigrants in America come from the upper echelons of India’s social hierarchy.” Most of them are from higher castes, which means they have access to influential social networks both in India and in the US. These are the people likely to succeed financially no matter whether they stay in India or immigrate. Because of these three selection processes, the typical Indian-American is starkly different from the typical Indian or native-born American.

What should we conclude?

Only that we shouldn’t read too much into the financial success of Indian-Americans. Nor should we belittle the Indians who couldn’t or chose not to immigrate to the United States, or elsewhere, or the other immigrant and native-born US groups who have lower incomes. As psychologists have found, a significant chunk of a person’s success in any domain, including financial success, is dictated by their luck. This includes the fortune of their birth.

ANS: Democracy is morally superior to communism.

Part B

Which answer choice presents the most logical reasoning in support of the argument identified in Part A?

ANS: "... we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in."

In his "Ich bin ein Berliner" lecture, John F. Kennedy argued that democracy is morally better than communism. As a result, in PART A, Option (D) is the appropriate response.

"We have never had to build a wall around our people to keep them inside." this is the line of reasoning that, in light of the argument presented in PART A, makes the greatest sense. As a result, in PART B, Option (D) is the appropriate response.

What is democracy?

A democracy is a system of government in which the citizens have the power to make laws and decide who will represent them in office.

Freedom of assembly, association, property rights, freedom of speech, inclusivity and equality, citizenship, and minority rights are among the foundational principles of democracy.

Democracy as a concept has changed significantly over time. Direct democracy was the initial form of government. The most widespread type of democracy today is a representative democracy, in which citizens choose representatives to rule on their behalf, as in a parliamentary or presidential democracy.

Hence, Option (D) is the correct answer in both parts.

Read this excerpt from Rogue Heart:​

TingTing approaches with a broom of her own. We’ve been sweeping along the perimeter of the café. Now we meet in the middle by the display of lychee rose cupcakes. TingTing grips her broom tightly, her pretty face flushed, her eyes beseeching. As she speaks, Tour Guide, my translation app, whirs the music of her voice into language in my head.​

“Anmei?” she begins, calling me by the name I’d given her when we first met.​

Write 1–2 paragraphs analyzing the context clues in the excerpt to determine the figurative meaning of the phrase “whirs the music.” Consider these questions:

What context clues can you use to determine the meaning of the phrase?
What is the figurative meaning of the phrase?​
How did the context clues help you determine the meaning of the phrase?

Answers

Context clues are characterized as hints that allow the readers to determine the meaning of words that are unknown or unfamiliar to them.

The students can write that context clues include the surrounding words like 'As she speaks,' 'music of her voice into language' would assist in looking for the meaning of the phrase 'whirs the music.' The figurative or non-literal meaning of the phrase would be that the application puts the words into a rhythmic and music-like structure that is pleasing. These context clues would assist the readers in understanding that it is referring to a sweet melodious and pleasurable sound produced by the translating application.

brainly.com/question/2569664

Answer:

this is the right answer

Explanation:

Based on the context in the excerpt, we know that the narrator is using a “translation app,” which tells us she does not speak the language TingTing is speaking. The phrase “whirs the music of her voice” describes how the translation app interprets TingTing's voice so the narrator can understand what she is saying. The word music makes me think of continuous, repeated sounds that are pleasurable to the listener. The word whirs convey the image of a record player or a CD spinning. So, all these clues put together help us to understand that the translation app is interpreting TingTing’s voice and language into a continuous stream of words (like a song) that the narrator can understand.

"Ay, Cuco. Remember how I showed you that suitcase with little wheels so we should not have to carry those heavy bags when we traveled? Someone stole my idea and made a million!"

Answers

Answer:

"Remember that time we took the car to Bear Mountain, and we re-ah-lized that we had forgotten to pack an opener with our pick-a-nick?"

Explanation:

This is the excerpt that reveals Laura's Dominican origin through her unique pronunciation. In this line, we learn that Laura mispronounces the words "realized" and "picnic." She seems to have trouble with vowels, and it appears that she pronounces them in a more "open" way, closer to their Spanish sound. This shows that Laura's Dominican origin has an impact on her pronunciation.

The excerpt that discloses the emergence of Laura's Dominican through unique pronunciation would be:

B). "Remember that time we took the car to Bear Mountain, and we re-ah-lized that we had forgotten to pack an opener with our pick-a-nick?"

The excerpt "Remember...pick-a-nick" demonstrates the beginning of Dominican in Laura's language which is reflected through her distinctive pronunciation. The usage of varied pronunciation is exemplified in the use of words like "re-ah-lized" and "pick-a-nick?" instead of "realized" and "picnic."This further substantiates that her language still contains the influence of Spanish.

Thus, option B is the correct answer.
