This question is missing the passage. I've found the complete question online. Since the options are the same, I will omit them.
The Girl in the Picture
I loved to look at the old photographs, especially the ones with me in them. I suppose that was bad of me and proved I was stuck on myself, but I couldn't help it. The pictures with me in them were just more interesting. Every stage of my life was there, snapped by the camera and stamped on a glossy piece of paper. I loved seeing myself at three, standing with my brother, Donald, in front of the house in our matching cowboy and cowgirl outfits, or standing on a chair in front of the kitchen counter, mixing a birthday cake for Mother. The pictures reminded me that I was real, that I always had been real and always would be real, and that I wasn't just some girl someone had made up.
Which two statements best express themes in the passage?
Answer:
The two statements that best express themes in the passage are:
Evidence of a prior time reminds people of their worth in life.
Joy comes from looking back on the past.
Explanation:
The narrator in the passage clearly derives happiness from looking at the pictures. Photos allow her to remember, to watch herself grow and change. And a sense of worth comes from it, since watching her own history pictured like that makes her realize how true it all is. She is a real person, with a real history. Being able to see that, being reminded of that, makes her happy. Therefore, the two themes expressed in the passage are:
Evidence of a prior time reminds people of their worth in life.
Joy comes from looking back on the past.
In your own words, explain what Douglass means in
this quote. What can we infer about the type of
person that he was?
Answer:
In this passage, which appears in Chapter I of the Narrative, Douglass explains that his master separated him from his mother soon after his birth. This separation ensured that Douglass did not develop familial feelings toward his mother. Douglass devotes large parts of his Narrative to demonstrating how a slave is “made,” beginning at birth. To some readers in Douglass’s time it may have seemed natural for blacks to be kept as slaves. Douglass upsets this point of view by depicting the unnaturalness of slavery. He explains the means by which slave owners distort social bonds and the natural processes of life in order to turn men into slaves. This process begins at birth, as Douglass shows in Chapter I, which describes his introduction into slavery. Slaveholders first remove a child from his immediate family, and Douglass explains how this destroys the child’s support network and sense of personal history.
In this quotation, Douglass uses descriptive adjectives like “soothing” and “tender” to re-create imaginatively the childhood he would have known if his mother had been present. Douglass often exercises this imaginative recreation in his Narrative in order to contrast normal stages of childhood development with the quality of development that he knew as a child. This comparative presentation creates a strong sense of disparity between the two and underscores the injustice that creates that disparity.
Though Douglass’s style in this passage is dry and restrained, his focus on the family structure and the woeful moment of his mother’s death is typical of the conventions of nineteenth-century sentimental narratives. Nineteenth-century readers placed great value on the family structure, viewing families as a haven of virtue. The destruction of family structure would have saddened readers and appeared to be a signal of the larger moral illnesses of the culture. Douglass, like many nineteenth-century authors, shows how social injustice can be expressed through the breakdown of a family structure
A New England Nun
by Mary E. Wilkins Freeman
In about half an hour Joe Dagget came. She heard his heavy step on the walk and rose and took off her pink and white apron. Under that was still another—white linen with a little cambric edging on the bottom; that was Louisa's company apron. She never wore it without her calico sewing apron over it unless she had a guest. She had barely folded the pink and white one with methodical haste and laid it in a table drawer when the door opened and Joe Dagget entered. He seemed to fill up the whole room. A little yellow canary that had been asleep in his green cage at the south window woke up and fluttered wildly, beating his little yellow wings against the wires. He always did so when Joe Dagget came into the room.
"Good-evening," said Louisa. She extended her hand with a kind of solemn cordiality.
"Good-evening, Louisa," returned the man, in a loud voice.
She placed a chair for him, and they sat facing each other, with the table between them. . . .
Presently, Dagget began fingering the books on the table. There was a square red autograph album and a Young Lady's Gift-Book, which had belonged to Louisa's mother. He took them up one after the other and opened them; then laid them down again, the album on the Gift-Book.
Louisa kept eyeing them with mild uneasiness. Finally she rose and changed the position of the books, putting the album underneath. That was the way they had been arranged in the first place.
Dagget gave an awkward little laugh. "Now what difference did it make which book was on top?" he said.
Louisa looked at him with a deprecating smile. "I always keep them that way," she murmured.
"You do beat everything," said Dagget, trying to laugh again. His large face was flushed.
Adapted from Mary E. Wilkins Freeman's "A New England Nun," 1899.
A.)He is excited to read Louisa’s books.
B.)He is uncomfortable in Louisa's house.
C.)He feels awkward about expressing his love for Louisa.
D.)Louisa amuses him and makes him laugh.

Turn the following ten words, which are in italics in the passage,
into other parts of speech.
prevalence → verb
potentially → noun
vulnerable noun
accessible verb
censorship → adverb
volunteer → adjective
dubious → noun
system adjective
regular verb
suitability → verb
Answer:
prevalence → verb → to prevail
potentially → noun → potential
vulnerable → noun → vulnerability
accessible → verb → to access
censorship → adverb → censorious
volunteer → adjective → voluntary
dubious → noun → dubiousness
system → adjective → systematic
regular → verb → to regulate
suitability → verb → to suit
Explanation:
In the English language, especially when it comes to words originated from Latin, it is common to change words with the addition or removal of certain parts -- the affixes. Notice, for example, that to transform "vulnerable" into a noun, we added a suffix (an ending): "vulnerability". On the other hand, to transform "censorship" into an adverb, we changed suffixes: "censorious". It is important to know and understand the use of affixes. They are a helpful means to figure out the meanings of new words.

2. The main stereotype of American Indians is that they are dimwitted. Alexie’s father loves to read, and the text says he was one of the few Indians who went to Catholic school willingly to learn.
3. By saying that everything has a fence, he is trying to tell the readers that there is a wall we all put up around ourselves. These boundaries restrict us from being the best that we can be.
4. His childhood was painful to him, because as a student growing up he was always different for going up against the stereotype. By referring to himself in the third-person, he can almost pretend it didn’t happen to him.
5. He is getting his point across by not saying, but implying what he means.
6. It is divided between the first, bigger half about the obstacles he faced fighting back against the Indian stereotype as a child, and the second half is about the struggle he now has with trying to help other young Indians growing up do the same.

Answer:

The sentence shown is not a fragment because it is a complete sentence. Since a fragment, it is characterized as an incomplete sentence, interrupted and without completing the thought that begins. This does not happen in the sentence presented.
The sentence shown above also cannot be classified as a run-on sentence. This is because this sentence connects all the clauses that compose it correctly and run-on sentences do not present these links correctly, such as commas and prepositions.

OVERVIEW:
THEORIES OF EMOTION
an emotion such as happiness or sadness, is a subjective experienced that is associated with some psychological change in arousal and some characteristic behavior. For example, a feeling of happiness is generally accompained by a decrease in heart rate, indicating a deacrease in arousal, and a smile, an overt behavior. fear is generally associated with, among other psychological effects, an increase in heart rate and clenched teeth.
do we smile because we are happy or do we are happy because we smile? theories of emotion differ in terms of whether the emotion leads to psylogical and behavioral changes or the other way around. according to the theory, the facial feedback theory which has its roots in the writtings and theories of charles darwin and william james, emotion can be regulated by behavior, particularly by facial expression.
