Part A
In "The Voyage of the James Caird," why does the author include this sentence about an
unrelated casualty at sea?
They would later learn that a 500-ton steamer had foundered with all hands in the same
hurricane they had just weathered. *
to help readers understand how remarkable the success of the voyage was 1
to explain what had happened to the ship the James Caird had left behind
to demonstrate that the size of a boat is unimportant in a storm
to add drama and suspense to her work of narrative nonfiction
Answer:
to help readers understand how remarkable the success of the voyage was 1
Explanation:
This is true because, it would help the reader to learn that, the same hurricane which they are complaining about, another steam boat weighing 500-ton just passed through the same hurricane successfully. That it weathered the hurricane, shows that, it was not affected by the hurricane.
As a senior prefect of your school write a letter to the headteacher discuissing two reasons why the school should instill moral values into the students
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Universal Model school,
90 Aba Owerri Road,
Umungasi,
Aba.
October 24, 2020.
The Principal,
Universal Model School,
Aba.
Sir,
NEED TO INSTILL DISCIPLINE IN STUDENTS OF UNIVERSAL MODEL SCHOOL ABA
It is with utmost expediency that I write this letter to you. It is unfortunate to say that our dear citadel of learning has descended into a moral quagmire owing to the actions of certain miscreants who have found their way into the school as students.
It is important to restate the fact that the school is charged with the responsibility of nurturing the next generation of leaders in any country. For this reason, the school must stand out as an epitome of discipline and sound moral conduct. This is why I plead with you sir, to take the issue of moral decadence in the school very seriously.
A few days ago, I discovered certain students loitering around the refectory area after lights out. I recommended to the dean of student affairs that the affected students should be suspended from the school for two weeks as a means of mitigating the impact of the collapsing disciplinary code in the school but the case was treated with levity.
This has further emboldened other students to break school rules without any attendant consequences.
Sir, any system that winks at lawlessness has set the stage for anarchy to overwhelm such system.
I hereby call on you sir, to use your good office to do the needful in the area of instilling discipline into the students.
Yours Faithfully,
Jude Njoku
Senior prefect

Characters Description Additional Details Mr. Summers (example) Runs the lottery It is obvious that he is a leader by the way the town listens to his directions in preparing for the lottery (49-53) Mr. Bill Hutchinson Mrs. Tessie Hutchinson
Answer:
Character- Mr. Summers.

Additional Details- It is obvious that he is a leader by the way the town listens to his directions in preparing for the lottery.
Character- Mr. Bill Hutchinson.
Description- The husband of the unlucky winner of the lottery.
Additional Details- He seems very supportive of the lottery's process and willingly showed his blank paper. He also "forced the slip of paper out of her hand", signifying his full cooperation and acceptance of the ritual.
Character- Mrs. Tessie Hutchinson.
Description- The unlucky victim or 'winner' of the lottery.
Additional details- She was happy to be involved in the annual ritual and wouldn't miss it. But when the lot fell on her family, she finds fault in it.
Explanation:
Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery" revolves around the annual ritual of a village where a 'winner' gets chosen to be 'stoned to death' as a sacrificial lamb. The story delves into the theme of why it is dangerous to blindly follow the rituals or traditions established.
The characters Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson are the main protagonist of the story around which the story develops and revolves around. Bill Hutchinson is the husband of the unlucky victim Tessie Hutchinson. While she seems supportive of the ritual, she changed her stance by accusing the process of being "unfair" once the lot fell on her family. Bill, on the other hand, is fully accepting of the result, even forcing the paper off of Tessie's hand and also telling her to "shut up" when she accuses the "unfair' process.
Which statement best explains the absence of stanzas in Patricia Hubbell's "The Black Snake"? The poet doesn't want to slow down the poem or have her reader pause for too long. The poet wants to create a sense of sadness through the use of stanzas. The poet wants to slow the poem down so that the reader can focus on all the details. The poet wants to create a uniform, steady pace throughout the poem.
Answer:
A. The poet doesn't want to slow down the poem or have her reader pause for too long.
Explanation:
The statement that best explains the absence of stanzas in Patricia Hubbell's "The Black Snake" is "the poet doesn't want to slow down the poem or have her reader pause for too long"
In the poem "The Black Snake" by Patricia Hubbell, there were no stanzas. We can infer that the author left the poem without stanzas in order not to slow the readers down. It is also as a result of eliminating pauses that might be encountered when reading the poem.

formatting style in your research paper?" Which answer do you think is more
correct?

help our readers quickly locate the outside sources we reference.

Answer:
A. We use a citation and formatting style because it's a way to organize and help our readers quickly locate the outside sources we reference.

However, you must quote in a specific format, which is necessary for readers of your work to know that the text has citations and to be able to quickly locate the external sources to which you refer.

PROMPT: What is the overall message of “Mad Woman” by Taylor Swift?
Answer using the response paragraph format:
TWO QUOTES-one from each piece. Be sure they are embedded & cited)-highlight quotes any color, highlight the citation a different color.
Example of embedded quote with citation:
In the song “Mad Woman,” Taylor Swift compares herself to a scorpion by saying they “strike to kill,” suggesting that when she gets provoked, she will fight back (Swift).
Commentary (your thoughts/opinions)-[place brackets around commentary]
Answer:
Using her newfound political voice, Taylor touches on one of the major injustices women face. Women (especially celebrities) are constantly ridiculed by men, society, and, yes, even other women. But when you dare to fight back at your aggressors, you're labelled "emotional" and "crazy." Women are expected to just lay down and take whatever is thrown at them with a smile.

Read the excerpt from We Shall Not Be Moved.
The League, like Local 25, had expected a turnout of four or five thousand. They were bowled over by this army, utterly unprepared for it. They had organized strikes in the garment trade, small ones, usually confined to a single shop, but never before had they undertaken something on so vast a scale. They might fail, might be laughed at by the whole of New York as well as John Dyche and the ILGWU men, and all the same they knew this was the challenge they'd been hoping for — their chance to show the world they were more than highbrow butters-in, just as the shirtwaist makers were more than irresponsible little girls.
What conclusion can be drawn by connecting knowledge of the historical time period with information in the text?
1 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League caused New York to make fun of men’s labor unions.
2 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League made the shirtwaist makers appear irresponsible.
3 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League gained enough strength in numbers to have some power.
4 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League destroyed women’s chances for fair labor practices.
Answer:
Explanation:
3 By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League gained enough strength in numbers to have some power. sorry if its wrong
Answer:
Explanation:
You need an answer that showed they were not expecting the huge turnout that they got, but they realized that this is the chance they had been waiting for. They might be ridiculed, but they knew, if no one else did, that their numbers meant power.
C is the best answer.
