Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which is a frequent source of controversy in public debates, says that "a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." The controversy stems from the fact that some Americans feel that the Second Amendment guarantees all citizens the absolute right to own firearms, while others believe that some restrictions on gun ownership are consistent with the Second Amendment.
Which of the following sentences best describes the author’s message in this passage?

write a short letter to brother asking him not to eat junk food because it is harmful to health
Answer:
Dear brother, please do not eat junk food because it is harmful to your body. All though junk food may taste good it is very unhealthy for you for many reasons, here are a few. To begin with, it contains a lot of unhealthy oils. Second off, it can also be processed food which isn't good for you. Last but not least, it can give you heart burn, and that is why you do not head junk food.

They can harm the growth of your body, can reduce the immune system, can make you fall sick or can make you weak. So please avoid eating such food so as to lead a healthy life. Do some physical exercises too. Ok? So that's all. I'm ending this letter now. Lots of love from Mom and Dad.
Yours loving sister,

Think about the experiences you've had with dramatic texts, including seeing live performances or film adaptations. How does the era in which a play was written affect your ability to enjoy it or understand it? How is it different to read or see a play written more than two millennia ago (such as tragedies and comedies from ancient Greece) compared to a few centuries ago (for example, Shakespeare or others from the Renaissance) or one produced in the last 100 years?
Is there something like a modern sensibility to more recently written dramatic works that helps you connect better to them than to works from past centuries? Are there traits in older forms of drama that engage you because they are NOT modern? Describe the traits of drama that keep you engaged as well as characteristics that make it challenging to do so.
Answer:
1. The era in which a play was written affects the ability of reader’s/spectator’s ability to enjoy it or understand it due to the lack of context, such as social norms (which change with every era), historical events which were the influence or inspiration for the dramatic word.
2. The difference in reading or seeing a play written more than two millennia ago such as tragedies and comedies from ancient Greece compared to a few centuries ago such as Shakespearean ones or one produced in the last 100 years is in the form of drama. Greek and Shakespearean drama are continuation of the same tradition but they have different forms and context. What makes these old dramas popular in modern time is their everlasting themes.
3. There certainly is. Modern sensibility helps you to connect better to the more recently written dramatic works that than to works from past centuries, as the context is much closer and therefore even more personal and understandable. But, that sometimes isn’t the matter, for example with Avant-Garde dramas.
4. Speaking from myself, yes, there are certain traits in older forms of drama that engage me more in older dramas because they don’t have a modern form or sometimes theme. When you engage in an artistic work it is according to your own sensibility.
5. The traits of drama that keep modern people engaged are mostly the context which influences the capability to understand it better and therefore to engage in it. The characteristics that make it challenging to do so are mostly the forms and language which is confusing and most likely failed to deliver what author actually wanted to achieve, like in Avant-Garde and Postmodernism dramas.

How do you think Robin Hood became an outlaw? Write a paragraph stating your opinion. Remember, your opinion is what you think and feel about the situation, not a retelling of the events of the story.
Answer:
My opinion is that I think Robin Hood is a heroic outlaw. The reason is that when he was captured, one of the woodsmen set him free, then after that robin hood set free all of the other captives free. He wasn't only thinking of himself he was thinking of everyone else. That's an example of how Robin Hood is heroic, just like in the other stories how he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. I think that makes him an outlaw for stealing, but that would make him a heroic outlaw. When the foresters played a trick on him Robin Hood wasn't the bad guy in that situation, the foresters were the bad guys because they pulled a mischievous trick. So all I can say is that Robin Hood is a heroic outlaw. i wrote this out so dont go turning this in and saying this is urs bc its not.

Read the excerpt from "Lady Liberty." It was a very good plan given the poor state of repair on Bedloe. Still, Papa and I decided to risk the sagging wooden stairs and climb to the crown. Inside, kerosene lamps were the only light. The air was stale, and it seemed like a place where accidents could happen. Even so, a crowd of people were willing to risk their safety and climb 354 steps for a view of the harbor and city. To me, it seemed as if every stair was a step toward freedom and light.
Which is the best objective summary of this excerpt?
A. The air inside the Statue of Liberty smelled old and stuffy, which made it hard to climb to the top.
B. Climbing up to the top of the Statue of Liberty was worth any risk that may have resulted.
C. There was very little light inside the Statue of Liberty, but people, including the narrator, still climbed to the top.
D. Despite the conditions inside the Statue of Liberty, many people, including the narrator, climbed up to the top.
