in C the comma is missing in between brief and ended
in D, its same same as C
The coffee break the two scholars took, although very brief, ended up being the most important 15 minutes of their day, for it was then that they had the biggest breakthrough of their research. Hence option B is correct.
What is punctuation?The set of symbols we use to distinguish and express the meaning of written phrases and sentence fragments is known as punctuation. Punctuation adds silent intonation to our work.
A's conclusion is incorrect, C's comma between brief and finished is missing, and D's error is the same as C's only option C is correctly punctuated sentence.

Read the story Hayden and Henry Go to Fenwick Island:
When Hayden and Henry Holbrook were just 10 months old, their parents enrolled them in swimming lessons at the local pool. By the time they were 10 years old, both boys were excellent swimmers. Hayden was best at the backstroke, Henry at the forward crawl. They were identical twins but they were complete opposites in almost every way. While Hayden liked swimming at the pool where the water was warm and familiar, Henry preferred to swim outdoors. He loved to swim in the pond in their backyard or at the lake where they went to camp each summer. Henry liked to try new things and had recently enrolled in a sea swim race in Delaware, about 3 hours from the boys' home in Elizabethtown, PA.
Hayden and Henry had never been to the ocean before. They had travelled a lot in the Midwest, where their grandparents lived, and to upstate New York in the summertime, but they had never been to the coast. Hayden had learned a lot about the New England coast during his shipwreck phase, when he watched loads of documentaries and read every book in the library on the topic.
"The race is in May, right? According to my research, the temperature of the ocean at the time of year is a chilly 50 degrees," Hayden informed his brother. Henry couldn't be deterred. "Water's water. It's all the same," Henry replied to Hayden's doubts.
Henry trained hard. He swam every morning before school at the community pool since the pond was still frozen over. He knew the ocean would be different, but he was determined to take part in the race. Henry thought he even had a good chance of winning in his age category.
Soon, spring sprung in New England, and the Holbrooks set out for the sea race weekend on Fenwick Island. That evening, the whole family sat on the beach and watched the sunset as the waves rolled in. Hayden regaled everyone with stories of pirate buccaneers and long-lost shipwrecks, but Henry was unusually quiet. When they had walked along the boardwalk earlier, he had seen a sign warning swimmers about the possibility of jellyfish in the water. Henry never had to worry about jellyfish in the pool, pond, or lake. Perhaps water wasn't just water. One of the boys' favorite movies had a scene where the bad guy tried to flee the scene of a crime on a speedboat, only to fall off and get stung repeatedly by jellyfish. Every time they watched it, the brothers laughed and laughed. Henry wasn't laughing now. He couldn't stop thinking about how much it would hurt if he got stung by a jellyfish during the race. He wasn't sure if he wanted to compete anymore.
Hayden soon noticed the look of worry on his brother's face. As they strolled back toward their hotel in the pink twilight, Hayden asked his brother what was on his mind.
"Jellyfish," Henry responded.
Hayden laughed, "Yeah, I was thinking of that scene, too, when we walked past the boat rental place earlier. It cracks me up every time."
"I won't be laughing if I get stung during the race tomorrow," Henry said sharply. Then, looking at his brother, he said more softly, "I'm scared of them. I think I'm going to pull out of the race."
Hayden was surprised to hear his twin say this. Henry had always been the confident one, always up for taking risks. Giving up just wasn't his style. It upset Hayden to see his brother looking so down and upset, and he knew he had to do something to comfort his brother as Henry had done for him so many times before. Like bolts of lightning, facts that Hayden had read about jellyfish began to zigzag through his mind. 'Of course!' he thought.
"Henry, remember how I said that the average water temperature in the Atlantic would be around 50 degrees just now?"
"That's not helpful, Hayden," Henry sighed. "I'm prepared for the cold, just not the possibility of pain."
"No, no, that's not my point," Hayden continued excitedly, "Jellyfish prefer warm waters! It's far too cold for them to be out and about in the ocean right now. The probability that you'll see a jellyfish tomorrow, let alone be stung, is very low," he finished triumphantly.
A smile spread across Henry's face. "That's brilliant news, Hayden! Thanks so much. I can always count on you and your random knowledge to save the day!" he laughed, throwing his arm around his brother's shoulder.
Henry slept like a log that night. The next day, he dove head first into the ocean and swam with all his heart. Just as he had hoped, Henry won his race. When he took the podium to collect his medal, no one was cheering louder than Hayden. He was so happy for his brother and that his words had been so helpful.

Explanation:
After his first emotional reaction to the porcupine attack, he figures out the most important rule of survival. What is it? (Hatchet)
Answer:
He's down in the dumps about being stranded and now stung by a porcupine, but then ''he learned the most important rule of survival, which was that feeling sorry for yourself didn't work. '' It won't get the quills out of his leg and won't make fire, so Brian decides to stop it entirely and get to work.
Explanation:
Answer: The slithering sound continues, and Brian can see a vague shape going toward the door of the shelter and moving outside. He feels his leg and finds that there are needles in it—the intruder was a porcupine, and its quills are stuck in his calf.
One by one, although it hurts a lot, Brian pulls all eight quills out of his leg. When he's finally finished, he sits in the dark, crying and thinking that he just can't take any more. He puts his head down and cries until he's all cried out.
Later, the narrator tells us, Brian would look back on this time as the point where he learned "the most important rule of survival, which was that feeling sorry for yourself didn't work" (8.12). Wow, and here Shmoop thought it was "always bring an extra pair of underwear." You learn something new every day.

Read the two excerpts below. The first one is from Captain John Smith's personal account of his rescue by Pocahontas, and the second one is from the children's book The Story of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith published in 1906. Notice how the two accounts differ.
They were ready with their clubs to beat out his brains when Pocahontas, the King's dearest daughter, when no begging could prevail, took his head in her arms, and laid her own head upon his to save him from death.
--from John Smith's personal accounts
But just as the Indian brave was about to strike, his great war club swinging high in the air, Pocahontas rushed forward and threw herself between him and his victim. With her own body she shielded the Captain from harm, for her heart was moved to pity for the stranger, and she could not bear that he should die.
--from The Story of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith
What is the BEST way to describe how these two accounts differ?
Smith's account includes details about why Pocahontas intervened; the children's book does not
Smith's original account is full of emotion; the children's story is lacking in emotion
Smith's original account lacks emotions; the children's story attributes emotions to Pocahontas
Smith's account indicates exactly what Pocahontas said; the children's book leaves this part out

The Killer Clowns
One dark and stormy night, a loud bang came from the garage. A 10 year old girl named Rosa went to see what it was. When Rosa opened the door the lights went out. She knew there was a flashlight near the door, but she couldn’t find it, and the breaker-box was on the other side of the house in the basement. Suddenly the lights started to flicker on and off. She heard footsteps coming down the hall. Rosa ran and hid is a closet across the hall, she whispered to herself “Please don’t come this way”. “Clump, Clump, Clump” She heard the footsteps getting closer, all of a sudden they stopped in front of the door and went back down the hall. Rosa let out a sigh of relief. Then she heard a clown car and thought “That’s odd, clown car’s don’t pass through this late” but realized there were killer clowns on the loose and the police couldn’t stop them, the clowns already killed the entire police force. She knew what she had to do. The kitchen was down the hall and it sounded like the intruder was upstairs in the attic. Rosa had found a bag and started towards the kitchen, she knew exactly where the kitchen knives were and grabbed some food and a large carving knife. She also grabbed her mother’s pistol and some ammo from the gun safe. She heard the front door rattling and knew to get to her room, because it was her and her puppy, Rose-Bud who was a pit bull, that night and it had no windows to get in through.
Rosa locked the room door and pushed the dresser and nightstand against the door to barricade the door. Rosa heard the honking of a rubber chicken, and she knew the clowns were here. Still instead of screaming she stayed silent, got the gun loaded and ready to fire then hid in her closet. She would be safe in there for the time being, suddenly she knew Chuckie had teamed up with the killer clowns. Who else would have the clowns teamed up with besides a haunted doll? Rosa heard a knife scraping against the wall, it was deafening. Rosa was still in her closet with Rose-Bud. “Bang, Bang, Bang” went the door, a clown had gotten in! The clown opened the closet door very slowly and got shot straight in the heart. The gunfire made Chuckie and all the clowns run, but they are still out there.

How does Brian use Mr. Perpich's advice to help him begin his survival journey? Use at least two examples from Chapter 5 of Hatchet.
Answer:Chapter 5
Gripped by unbelievable thirst and hunger upon awakening, Brian drinks water from the lake while trying to grasp the fact that he has landed in this complete wilderness. Reassuring himself with the hope that the searchers will come that day to rescue him, Brian recalls his old English teacher Mr. Perpich, who had repeatedly emphasized to his students the importance of a positive attitude, and Brian uses this memory to motivate himself against despair. Brian experiences the profound silence of the woods, noting that such silence never exists back in the city. In a sudden wave of despair Brian suddenly remembers that he had bumped the wheel when reaching over for the pilot's headset. This action had most likely rerouted the plane, and Brian begins to accept the fact that the search planes might not rescue him for a few days. Sensing imminent panic, Brian works to calm himself, determined to find something to eat and to make a shelter.

the poems are the mending wall by robert frost and we real cool by Gwendolyn brooks
Answer:
"Mending Wall" by Robert Frost and "We Real Cool" by Gwendolyn Brooks are two poems that explore different themes and employ distinct literary techniques and structures.
In "Mending Wall," Frost delves into the theme of human connection and the boundaries that exist between individuals. The poem depicts a conversation between two neighbors who meet every spring to repair a stone wall that separates their properties. The conflict arises from the contrasting views of the two characters regarding the necessity of the wall. One character firmly believes in the tradition of maintaining the wall, while the other questions its purpose. This conflict highlights the broader theme of division and the tendency of humans to create barriers even when unnecessary.
In terms of characterization, Frost utilizes the first-person point of view, with the speaker representing the questioning neighbor. This point of view allows readers to empathize with the narrator's skepticism and curiosity. The literary technique of dialogue is also employed, as the conversation between the two neighbors serves as the primary vehicle for expressing their differing perspectives. Through their dialogue, the poet reveals their distinct personalities and beliefs.
In contrast, "We Real Cool" by Gwendolyn Brooks explores the theme of youth rebellion and the consequences of reckless behavior. The poem presents a group of young individuals who engage in defiant activities, such as skipping school and engaging in vices. The setting of the poem is a pool hall, symbolizing a space where these rebellious actions take place. The poem's title itself is an example of word choice, as it presents a defiant and self-assured attitude.
Brooks employs a unique poetic structure in "We Real Cool." The poem consists of a series of seven two-line stanzas, each beginning with the phrase "We real cool." This repetition creates a rhythmic pattern and emphasizes the rebellious and confident nature of the characters. The use of enjambment, where lines run into each other without punctuation, further enhances the flow and urgency of the poem.
In summary, "Mending Wall" and "We Real Cool" differ in their themes, characterizations, literary techniques, and poetic structures. While Frost's poem focuses on the concept of division and human connection through a dialogue-driven narrative, Brooks' poem explores youth rebellion and its consequences through concise and rhythmic stanzas. Both poems showcase the versatility and power of poetry in conveying complex ideas and emotions.

Discuss prewriting and planning strategies that you could use for a compare and contrast essay.
Provide at least two reasons explaining how these strategies would help you to write your paper.
Answer:
What I use is simply just a ladder, which is rarely used but I find it helpful and on top of that unique. I write the basics starting from top to bottom. After this, I render it but with writing, fix up a few things about it until I'm satisfied, and boom! Rendering but with writing haha. This helps me a lot as I not only feel like I'd succeed with this cool strategy, I also feel as if it's just easier for me to understand since I don't need to do much with it and I don't waste too much time being everywhere looking for something.
Answer:
What I could do is use a venn diagram, and this is because it helps with BOTH comparing and contrasting. Firstly, I would fill in things I already know. Another thing I could do is ask some questions. I would answer these questions, and then input the information into the venn diagram based on what I find. While doing this, I would make sure to include any sources I use just in case, so that way, I can make sure to not be blamed for anything. After this, I would just put what I wrote into complete sentences, if not already complete, and make sure it is formal AND intriguing/interesting.
Hope this helped! Probably didn't though :(

How is Brian showing optimism at the end of chapter 8? (Hatchet)
Answer:
When he figures out how to create sparks, Brian gets very happy and excitedly continues on with his duties.
Explanation:
Brian examines the wall where the hatchet hit and finds a harder, darker stone that caused the hatchet to spark. He quickly learns that he can make sparks by swinging the hatchet against the stone. Delighted, Brian believes that he will be able to make a fire.
The creation of the sparks is the most significant use of the hatchet so far, representing a new phase in Brian's independent identity. Taking on this exciting new task brings Brian joy and a sense of purpose.
