Answer:
The most notable difference that I remember between Rowan and Citra is that Rowan seemed more absolutely determined, while Citra seemed to carry some determination, albeit with compassion more prominent. This brings into question the idea of worthiness for being a Scythe - since a Scythe is able to kill people at a whim with no repercussions, perhaps even with praise, should one value compassion or absolute unbiased determination? Objectively, Rowan is better fit - he is more determined and able to take lives due to his nature. This will be seen later on in the book if you read what happens to him in the future. However, as compassion is needed when interacting with others, especially given a difficult idea such as killing, Citra may be a better fit, as she can be empathetic to those who are in the position of being gleaned.
TL;DR: It depends on your point of view. Both are good candidates, as Faraday asserts simply by choosing them to be his apprentices.
The Shepherd’s Lute: A Chinese Folktale
Natalie Stewart
1Long ago in a medieval village, a wealthy but bitter farmer named Chao employed an affable shepherd named Jiang, who truly enjoyed playing the lute. Jiang’s instrument was simple and plain, crafted from the wood of a native bamboo tree. Despite its modest appearance, the lute brought Jiang much joy. He created appealing music that lured the other villagers out to listen to him. Having an audience made Jiang feel accepted, and he quickly formed an important bond with the poor villagers.
2Chao, however, didn’t like Jiang. He hated Jiang’s lute playing and the way the villagers admired Jiang. Although Jiang was an excellent person and a hard worker, Chao fired Jiang from his job and smashed the lute into pieces.
3Miserable and brokenhearted, Jiang hung his head as he walked through the forest. Good fortune soon came to him, however, when he bumped into a compassionate old man who felt sorry for Jiang’s loss.
4The elderly man carved a new lute for Jiang and taught him to refine his playing technique. Soon, Jiang played better than ever before. Villagers and woodland creatures from all over came to hear him perform.
Chao heard gossip of the woodland animals and decided that he wanted to capture a flaxen white rabbit with a spotted head. He promised his farm and his fortune to the son who could capture the specific rabbit for him.
The sons had never laid eyes on such a rabbit before, and they didn’t know where to find one, but because they knew the rabbit would bring them riches, they decided to search for it.
Into the forest went the first son. He approached Jiang and described the mystical rabbit. Jiang said that if the son paid him, he would help him find the rabbit. At first, the son didn’t want to pay. Then he realized that locating the rabbit would earn him his father’s fortune, so he paid Jiang the money.
8Jiang began performing a song on his lute and, upon hearing him, the forest creatures gathered, including the flaxen rabbit! The farmer’s son seized the rabbit, but the creature struggled. Eventually, the rabbit darted back to the woods to hear Jiang play the lute, and the son couldn’t recapture it. The unsuccessful son returned home, upset that he had lost his money.
The other sons remained determined to catch the rabbit, so they too ventured into the woods and paid Jiang to help them attract the creature. As before, however, when Jiang played his lute, the rabbit scampered away.
Chao boiled with anger and scolded his sons for losing their money and failing to catch the rabbit. He finally set out with intentions of unearthing the rabbit by himself.
11As Chao entered the forest, flocks of birds and packs of creatures approached him. He trembled like a leaf in the wind.
“Farmer, beware!” called Jiang. “If I strum my lute, the creatures will attack!”
Chao begged Jiang to save him from this misfortune and promised to do anything.
“You must promise to treat people better and donate half of your possessions to the less fortunate villagers,” Jiang directed.
Chao quickly agreed because he was so terrified, and he followed through on his promise. Satisfied, Jiang continued to work as a shepherd and play his lute.

What things should you watch out for when you have a phone call with your potential employer / internship provider? How do you design the entry, the process and the end? What do you have to pay attention to? What should you do before the interview? Make a list of the most important points.
- You have been invited to an interview. Create concise statements on each of the following points that an applicant should consider.
dress
Gaze behavior (how you look around)
facial expressions
odor
Gestures and movements
posture
Voice and manner of speaking
Answer:
Internship phone interviews enable employers to screen candidates ahead and identify which students possess the skills they are seeking in an intern. Although a phone interview seems much less intimidating than a regular face-to-face interview, don’t ignore their importance by failing to prepare in advance.
When applying for internships, it’s important to be prepared at all times in the event that an employer might call regarding your application. Make sure you leave a professional voicemail message on your phone and always answer your phone in a professional manner. It’s important to be prepared for a phone interview in much the same way you would prepare for any interview.
Explanation:
Keep your resume and a list of your accomplishments by the phone in the event that you receive an unexpected call from an employer.
Have a secluded, quiet space prepared for you to go to conduct the interview.
Be confident that your cell phone offers an excellent connection (no static/lost calls) or opt for using a landline for all interviews.
Be prepared to discuss your skills and accomplishments as well as your strengths and weaknesses with the interviewer.
Practice answering interview questions aloud prior to your interview. This practice will help you formulate your ideas and how you want to say them. It will give you an opportunity to make mistakes prior to the actual interview.
Schedule a mock interview with a counselor in your Career Services Office at your college or with a friend or family member who is willing to help and able to provide constructive criticism. You may want to tape your mock interview to be able to playback and hear your voice as well as any distracting “ums,” “ands,” or other repetitive words used inappropriately.
Prepare answers for those tough behavioral questions, such as: “Tell me about a time when you had to use your persuasion skills to encourage a member of your team to participate more fully in pulling together a project or presentation.” Planning ahead by identifying several scenarios of courses, internships, jobs, etc., that you can use as examples for these types of questions can be invaluable.

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Anthony felt like he had finally overcome his fear of writing. Once he put pen to paper, the writing came easier and easier. He felt elated as he watched the words dance across the page.
Which literary device do the bold words represent?
A. implied metaphor
B. imagery

D. personification
Answer:
The literary device the bold words represent is:
D. personification.
Explanation:
Personification is a literary device used by authors to give human qualities or characteristics to objects, animals, or even ideas. By doing so, they make their writing more descriptive, poetic, and imaginative. In the passage we are analyzing here, personification is used when the words are described as having the ability to dance. Of course words cannot dance. But, by describing them in this manner, the speaker evokes a sense of beauty, harmony, and effortlessness in readers, a sense that is related to dancing.
