Answer:
B. The way Satchel Paige felt about not being the first black baseball player in the Major Leagues.
Explanation:
Back when segregation was still a lot more common and accepted, Jackie Robinson made history by becoming the first black baseball player in the Major Leagues. Although this was a huge accomplishment, not all people believed Robinson deserved it. Satchel was a black pitcher, but he believed that he should have become the first black baseball player in the Major Leagues. He justified this by saying that he was a better player, and that he had already proven himself by his performance against white players.

Explain any external conflict in the story Mirror Image by Lena Coakley?
INTERNAL CONFLICTS:
· Alice vs Alice – after the operation Alice has to undergo lots of mental struggle in order to adjust with her new appearance and in order to tune her mind with her new body.
· Alice vs Gail – the brain of Alice has been transplanted in the body of Gail and hence there is constant conflict between Alice and Gail as Alice the brain has all the time to adjust with Gail the body.
EXTERNAL CONFLICTS:
· Alice vs Mother – after the operation there are lot of misunderstanding and confusion between them.
· Alice vs sister – before the operation they were very close but after the operation Jenny does not trust Alice completely and there is doubt and conflict between them.
· Alice vs Mr. Jarred, and society – Alice is also at constant conflict with society and Mr. Jarred who mistakes her to be Gail – his deceased daughter.
Why did the narrator wish ‘there were no mirrors’
The narrator sincerely wished there were no mirrors as mirrors were often confusing her and reminding her of her changed appearance due to the brain-transplant operation. Often she felt there was someone else standing in front of her as her new image was different from her old one.
What were some of the problems faced by Alice after the operation?
After the operation Alice had to lots of adjustment as her mind and body were lacking proper coordination. She had to reorient herself about how to speak and move in the hospital. At first everything looked strange – the images, the colours and etc. Her skin responded slowly to sensations. People’s voices appeared different. She often bit her tongue while talking. Her tone has changed. She had to do a lot of adjustments to cop up with all these problems.
Describe Alice’s encounter with Mr. Jarred on Bedford Avenue.

5. This story has a significant emotional crisis and a brutal physical climax. A) Define the crisis and
the climax of the story. B) Explain how the author uses suspense to lead to both plot events.
Answer and Explanation:
This question is about the short story "The Wife's Story", by Ursula K. le Guin.
5. This story has a significant emotional crisis and a brutal physical climax. A) Define the crisis and the climax of the story.
The story is told from the perspective of a werewolf. This female narrates how strange her beloved husband has become over time, and how others from her community have told her there was something in his blood that he inherited from his father. She does not know what it is, and she loves him too much to ask.
The emotional crisis comes when she realizes her husband transforms into a human from time to time, when there is no moon. The climax comes immediately afterward, when she, her sister, and others from the community chase him down to kill him. It is the narrator's sister that does it.
B) Explain how the author uses suspense to lead to both plot events.
The author limits our perception and knowledge when she chooses to narrate the story from a first-person perspective. Not only that, but suspense is skillfully used. The narrator reveals information little by little, at first tricking us into thinking they are all humans. Slowly, she talks of them all sleeping during the day while her husband goes "hunting" in broad daylight. She smells something different in him when comes back from those hunting trips, and even her daughter reacts to his presence with fear. Then she describes his transformation, how all of his hair disappears. She finally calls him a man. All this time, she toyed with us readers, leading us to believe this is a werewolf story when, in reality, it is a "werewolf's story", an inversion to the myth. The wolf who becomes a man is cursed, not the man who becomes a wolf. But she takes her time, confusing readers, building the suspense.

How do we measure the value of love? What comparisons can we draw in how we view or
depict love? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or
history in your answer.
Answer:
it is diferent for evryone
Explanation:
Love is an emotion. It can't be seen or touched, and it is experienced differently by everyone, therefore it is difficult to measure. Some think love can be measured by the amount of butterflies in their tummy. Others think love can be measured in bunches of flowers, or by using the words "for ever"
What are effective ways to get ready for a test? Check all that apply. [Edge 2020] a) making sure to be well prepared b) eating properly c) staying up later to study if necessary d) getting enough sleep e) using the proper study methods
Answer:
Explanation:
c and d sort of contradict each other other. However I know people that cram the night before and make out just fine.
A is a must. You have to understand the material.
B is not necessarily a must: if you survive on chips and dip you can't stop now. I would say the question expects you to eat properly.
C this is a tough one. It all depends on what your study habits are. I would say that the question would expect you to leave this unchecked, but in practice, it might be your style.
D This probably should be checked. You don't want to fall asleep during a test because you've been up all night listening to music.
E. The is common sense. It should be checked. In the long run it will save time at the very least.

Choose four sounds that are members of a natural class of English phonemes, and explain their shared features in square brackets.
Answer:
1. /p/ [voiceless stops]
2. /t/ [voiceless stops]
3. /k/ [voiceless stops]
/p/, /t/, /k/ are consonant sounds which have voiceless stops. These sounds are also aspirated at the beginning of words- i.e when pronounced, there is usually a forceful expulsion of air in words like "top", "tap", "kill", etc.
When the sounds are used at the end of words or joined with some consonants, they are not aspirated e.g drop, stop, etc.
4. /m/ [nasal stops]
When pronouncing nasal stops, the velum usually lowers to allow a free flow of air from the nose.
Examples of words that have nasal stops are:
"mouth", "mud", etc.

Explanation:
The narrator in The Canterbury Tales, says he plans to "give account of all their words and dealings, / Using their very phrases as
they fell." For which kind of characterization would an author provide such details?
a. direct characterization
C. direct and indirect characterization
b. indirect characterization
d. dramatic characterization
The correct answer is B. Indirect characterization
Explanation:
When authors use indirect characterization they only explain the actions, words, and general behavior of characters to show the reader how the characters are, rather than directly describing the characters from their perspective (direct characterization). According to this, the narrator of The Canterbury tells will use indirect characterization because he will only explain the "words and dealings" of the characters through the characters "very phrases as they fell", which shows the narrator will not describe the characters directly but let their words and actions show how they are.

B

Who can correct this sentence? Ty for helping us. :)
Answer:
On its maiden voyage in 1912, the British ocean liner the Titanic sank after ramming an iceberg in the North Atlantic ocean. The nearest ship, California, did not get the SOS message because the radio operator had gone to bed and turned off his radio. The Titanic’s captain, Edward J. Smith, knew that there were only enough lifeboats for half the 2100 people on board, in the panic, even those were not filled. Seventeen-year-old Jack Thayer from Philadelphia was not fortunate enough to get into the icy waters. Coming upon an upturned lifeboat he hung on until the Carpathia came to his recuse at dawn, more than 1500 other people were not very lucky.

Below are in-text citations for an encyclopedia article. Select the one that is completely correct.
("Herbivore" p. 14)
(Herbivore 14)
("Herbivore," 14)
("Herbivore" 14)
Answer:
("Herbivore" p. 14).
Explanation:
In any academic paper, the pattern and correct citation of sources is a must for academicians. It is this simple yet complicated method that enables the readers to know whether the paper is worth reading and whether it has solid proof of sources or is just a 'hypothetical' paper without much sources to validate it.
Among the options given for an in-text citation for an encyclopedia, the correct way of putting the in-text citation is to put the name/ title of the book followed by the year of publication and then the page number. And considering our given options, the year is not provided so that will be omitted. In that case, the correct answer will be "the title" and then the page number. Thus, "Herbivore" p. 14 is the correct answer.
Answer:
D. ("Herbivore" 14).
Explanation:
Hi, the person above is incorrect regarding MLA format. In a parenthetical citation for MLA format, there is no "p" for page number. It is simply the page number and/or author's surname. If there is no author, it is an abbreviation of the work's title in quotation marks, just like above.
Hope this helps.
PS. There are no commas in a parenthetical citation either for MLA format.
