How does the organizational structure of the passage help develop the main
idea?
Students who have classes in the science wing following swim class
do not have enough time to get to class before the bell rings. The
science classrooms and the swim locker rooms are the two farthest
points from each other in the building. In addition, students want to
drop off their heavy, wet swim bags at their lockers before heading to
sclence class. Because it would be inconvenient to lengthen the time
for students to pass between classes, I propose that students be
released from swim class five minutes before the bell rings. That way,
they will be able to make it to science class on time.
OA. The compare-and-contrast structure details the activities of
science class and swimming class in order to show that science is
more important than swimming.
OB. The problem-solution structure describes students' daily schedule
in order to identify the issues with the amount of passing time
allowed between classes.
OC. The proposition-and-support structure shares an opinion about the
length of time students are given between classes and backs it up
with examples from several different classes, including sclence
and swimming.
OD. The problem-solution structure explains why students are late to
science class in order to advise that they be let out of swimming
class earlier.

Answers

Answer:

D). The problem-solution structure explains why students are late to  science class in order to advise that they be let out of swimming  class earlier.

Explanation:

The organizational structure is characterized as the pattern, sequence, or arrangement in which the content or text is presented by the author. It allows the readers to understand the message conveyed by the author more conveniently.

In the given paragraph, the use of 'problem-solution' structure elaborates the reason due to which the students get late for the science class and suggests that they must be released earlier from the swimming class to ensure that the students reach science class on time. The author first discusses the problem('Students do not have enough time to get to class before the bell rings') followed by the causes('both the places are two farthest  points and they have to drop off their heavy, wet swim bags, before the science class' and then stating its solution(that they must be released earlier) allows a better comprehension for the readers. Hence, option D is the correct answer.

Read the excerpt from act 3, scene 1, of Julius Caesar.

ANTONY. O mighty Caesar! Dost thou lie so low?
Are all thy conquests, glories, triumphs, spoils,
Shrunk to this little measure? Fare thee well.—
I know not, gentlemen, what you intend—
Who else must be let blood, who else is rank.
If I myself, there is no hour so fit
As Caesar’s death hour, nor no instrument
Of half that worth as those your swords, made rich
With the most noble blood of all this world.
I do beseech ye, if you bear me hard,
Now, whilst your purpled hands do reek and smoke,
Fulfil your pleasure. Live a thousand years,
I shall not find myself so apt to die.
No place will please me so, no mean of death,
As here by Caesar, and by you cut off,
The choice and master spirits of this age.

Which quotations support the central idea that if Antony were to be killed, he would be honored to die now, after Caesar? Select three options.

“O mighty Caesar! Dost thou lie so low? / Are all thy conquests, glories, triumphs, spoils, / Shrunk to this little measure?”
“I know not, gentlemen, what you intend— / Who else must be let blood, who else is rank.”
“If I myself, there is no hour so fit / As Caesar’s death hour, nor no instrument / Of half that worth as those your swords”
“Live a thousand years, / I shall not find myself so apt to die.”
“No place will please me so, no mean of death, / As here by Caesar, and by you cut off”

Answers

Answer:

If I myself, there is no hour so fit / As Caesar’s death hour, nor no instrument / Of half that worth as those your swords” “Live a thousand years, / I shall not find myself so apt to die.” No place will please me so, no mean of death, / As here by Caesar, and by you cut off”

Explanation:

These three quotes show that Mark Anthony would have been honored to die then after Caser.

In the first phase he states that no hour would be so fit as to die as the same hour that Caser died.

In the second he infers that even if he were alive for a thousand years, he would not find a better moment to die than with Caser.

In the third, he states that no place would please him more to die than right by Caesar who had just died.

Answer:

C. “If I myself, there is no hour so fit / As Caesar’s death hour, nor no instrument / Of half that worth as those your swords”

D. “Live a thousand years, / I shall not find myself so apt to die.”

E. “No place will please me so, no mean of death, / As here by Caesar, and by you cut off”

Answers

Answer: Pa reckoned he'd have to leave off driving his old truck.

Explanation:

Dialect refers to the way a person speaks the language that they speak as languages have various dialects. For instance, standard British English and standard American English are dialects of the English language.

Writers can use dialect in literature so that the reader understands what kind of dialect the characters are using. In option C above, the use of the word 'reckoned' would have the effect of the reader believing that Pa uses the Southern American English dialect.

Answer:

Pa reckoned he'd have to leave off driving his old truck.

- by
- with
- for
- in

Answers

Answer:

We were at a disadvantage in that that we weren't too familiar with the language the others were using.

Explanation:

In the given sentence, the correct preposition to be used is "in". This is because "in" will introduce the argument or provide an explanation for the statement before the blank.

With the use of "in", the statement "we weren't too familiar with the language the others were using" provides an explanation for the first statement "[W]e were at a disadvantage". Whereas the use of the prepositions "by", "with", and "for" are incorrect.

Thus, the correct answer is "in".

Answers

Answer:

A) Peace is often most appreciated after it has been lost.

Explanation:

I took the test

The theme that is best illustrated in the statement is - Sharing difficult experiences can strengthen friendships.

What is Peace?

In the absence of animosity and violence, peace is the idea of communal friendship and harmony. Peace is frequently used to refer to a lack of conflict and the absence of the threat of violence between individuals or groups in society.

Though possibly less clearly defined, "psychological peace" (such as tranquil thoughts and emotions) is frequently a requirement before achieving "behavioral peace." Sometimes a "quiet inner disposition" manifests itself in peaceful behavior. Some people have the opinion that peace can be started with an inner calmness that is independent of the uncertainties of daily life.

The development of such a "calm internal disposition" for oneself and others might aid in settling conflicting interests that might otherwise appear to be insurmountable. Despite the fact that we feel joyful when we are enthusiastic, serenity is a condition of peaceful satisfaction in the mind.
