WILL MARK BRAINLIST
1) Find a short news story online and rewrite it in a sensationalized way, using “loaded” words with strong connotations and denotations that exaggerate the important aspects of the story itself, possibly leading readers to a totally different purpose.
2) Why do you think parody news shows are so popular these days? Do you think they’ll remain popular in the next decades, or is it just a passing trend? Why or why not? Be sure to talk about the different purposes of parody as part of your response.

Section 5
They came to Seriphus. No one knew Perseus; he heard his name spoken of as that of
a youth who had gone on a foolish quest and who would never again be heard of. He
learned that Polydectes had a new plan to marry—and this time, he would marry Danae.
He had walled her up in a temple.
Perseus took Andromeda to the hut of Dictys, the shepherd, so she would be safe. Then
Perseus went to the temple and heard his mother's voice wailing: "Walled up here and
given over to hunger, I shall be made go to Polydectes's house and become his wife. O
ye gods, have ye no pity for Danae, the mother of Perseus?"
Perseus cried aloud, and his mother heard his voice and her moans ceased. He turned
around and he went to the palace of Polydectes, the king.
The king received him with mockeries. "I will let you stay in Seriphus for a day," he said,
"because I would have you attend a marriage feast. I have vowed that Danae, your
mother, will be my wife by to-morrow's sunset."
So Polydectes said, and the lords and princes who were around him mocked Perseus
and flattered the king. Perseus went from them then. The next day he came back to the
palace. But in his hands now there was a dreadful thing—the bag made from the hide of
the sea monster that had in it the Gorgon's head.
He saw his mother. She was brought in white and fainting, thinking that she would now
have to wed the harsh and overbearing king. Then she saw her son, and hope came into
her face.
The king seeing Perseus, said: "Step forward, O youngling, and see your mother wed to
a mighty man. Step forward to witness a marriage, and then depart, for it is not right that
a youth that makes promises and does not keep them should stay in a land that I rule
over. Step forward now, you with the empty hands."
But not with empty hands did Perseus step forward. He shouted out: "I have brought
something to you at last, O king—a present to you and your mocking friends. But you, O
my mother, hide your face from what I have brought." Saying this Perseus drew out the
Gorgon's head. Holding it by the snaky locks he stood before the company. His mother
turned away her face. But Polydectes and his insolent friends looked full upon what
Perseus showed. "This youth would try to frighten us with some magician’s trick!" they

said. They said no more, for they became as stones, and as stone images they still
stand in that hall in Seriphus.
Perseus went to Dictys the shepherd's hut, and he asked the kind shepherd to rule as
king in his brother’s place. Then with his wife, Andromeda, and his mother, Danae, he
went from Seriphus.
He did not go to Argos, the country that his grandfather had ruled over, although the
people there wanted Perseus to come and be their king. He took the kingdom of Tiryns
in exchange for that of Argos, and there he ruled with Andromeda by his side.
He gave the sickle-sword that had slain the Gorgon, and Medusa's head, back to
Hermes. That head Hermes's divine sister, Athena, goddess of wisdom, set upon her
shield. O, may Athena guard us all!

An initial step in Sainsbury’s plan is to sell appealing food to its customers.

Unwanted produce can be a nutritious source of food for farm animals.

Sainsbury’s donates fresh produce to local organizations that help people in need.

This is the paragraph 3

Offering shoppers the freshest and most appealing products possible is a good start. Attractive food sells the best. At the end of each day, each grocery store reduces the prices of fruits, vegetables, meats, and dairy products. Cheaper food sells even better. Whatever edible food is left goes to charities for distribution to people who need it. Free food goes into bellies rather than the ground. Sainsbury’s gives away large amounts of food to farmers to feed animals as well. Animals do not care if lettuce is wilted.

Read this excerpt from “What I Hope to Leave Behind.” If we have known happy homes, we want to reproduce the same type of thing we have had; and even though we may always be critical of some things in our past, time nearly always puts a halo around even a few of the disagreeable things, and most women dream, as they rock their babies or busy themselves in household tasks, that their daughters will do the same things someday. Which statement explains how this excerpt relates to the position of women during Eleanor Roosevelt’s time? Although some women may have raised sons and daughters, they lived during a time when they taught their daughters to work in the home. Although some women had difficult upbringings, they lived during a time when working in the home was their only option. Although some women may have had doubts about working in the home, they lived during a time when doing so was often taken for granted. Although some women had been raised to consider individual careers, they lived during a time when they often opted to work in the home.

Select the correct text in the passage.
Sarah has written an outline for an essay. One of her bullet points shows that educating the public about the importance of using seat belts convinces more people to use them. In which part of the outline can this idea be found?
Introduction
Car accidents are the leading cause of death among teens. Of the teens that died in car accidents last year, more than half of them were not wearing seat belts at the time of the crash. Seat belts may not be comfortable or feel cool to wear, but they can save lives. They reduce serious injuries and deaths by more than half. People tend to use seat belts less often if there are no seat belt laws in their state. In order to prevent injuries, there should be seat belt education in schools, laws to make citizens wear seat belts, and awareness campaigns for the public. Body Paragraph Every school should have some type of health education program. This program should review the importance of healthy eating and exercise, the body systems, and refraining from drugs and alcohol. These things can protect your health and keep you safe. But car accidents are the number one killer for teenagers. In order to prevent deaths, seat belt education needs to be included in health education programs. When students understand the importance of wearing a seat belt, they will be more likely to wear seat belts in the car. In 1985, the Ad Council introduced a commercial featuring the crash test dummies. The ad said, “You could learn a lot from a dummy.” People wearing seat belts increased from 14% to 79%. Conclusion Taking the time to teach seat belt education in schools, creating laws to make citizens wear seat belts, and using awareness campaigns to educate the public can help prevent injuries and deaths on the road.
