Super Gran
It was broad daylight and lots of people were out shopping in Northampton city centre on Saturday. Suddenly, a gang of six criminals attacked a jewellery shop. They were wearing black jackets and black ski hats to hide their faces.
Their plan was to smash the big glass windows of the jewellery shop, steal as much valuable jewellery as they could and then quickly escape on motorbikes before anyone could do anything. They thought that nobody would stop them. But they were wrong.
As the gang were smashing the window, a seventy-year-old woman saw what they were trying to do. She ran up to them and started hitting the men on the head with her handbag. The men were very surprised when they saw that their attacker was an old lady. They were so shocked that they dropped the jewellery and tried to run away. But now other shoppers had seen what was happening and came to help the old lady. The shop assistants locked the shop and called the police. Four of the men were arrested.
The whole incident was filmed on the mobile phone of a passer-by. He put the film on the Internet and the story was in all the newspapers: ‘Granny stops armed robbers’. And what about the old lady? Nobody knows who she is! Police questioned people at the scene, but they said she had gone to have a cup of tea and then quietly disappeared.

1 The story is about a
a robbery. b mugging. c burglary.

2 The crime happened
a during the night. b in the middle of the day. c in the evening.

3 The old woman
a was the only person to react.
b was the first person to react.
c filmed the gang on her phone.
2
4 All the members of the gang
a were arrested. b escaped on motorbikes. c tried to escape.

5 The old lady
a was questioned by the police.
b didn’t tell anyone her name.
c phoned the police.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. ROBBERY.

The six criminals were attempting the rob the jewellery store.

2. b IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY

The story begins by stating that the event occurred in broad daylight which would mean that it was in the middle of the day as the other options would have limited daylight.

3. b. WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO ACT

The old woman acted first by going to hit the men on their heads. This prompted others to act as well.

4. c. TRIED TO ESCAPE

When the robbers saw that it was an old lady hitting them, they were stunned and all tried to escape but 4 were stopped by the others who intervened and it would appear that 2 managed to escape arrest.

5. b. DIDN'T TELL ANYONE HER NAME

The old lady seemingly disappeared without a trace after the robbery.

Answer:

There was a big DALE that me and my friend explored and it was so fun!

Explanation: DALE means a valley

Answer:

Dale voted for Joe Biden, although he thinks Trump will win.


The painful truth is our world is changing and it may very well be our fault. The temperature is rising polar summers are getting longer and longer and landfills continue to grow. These are all effects of our gluttonous ways taking more of what we already have driving around aimlessly and littering. I believe that these need to stop. People say change is not easy it takes time, but mankind has been changing for thousands of years adapting to the world around us. However, some people have changed or at least made a turn for the better although not everybody is on the boat.

There are simple things we can do to make a stand against the wasteful world. Instead of buying plastic water bottles just get a reusable one and refill it at home or if you cannot for some reason at least recycle the bottles. I mean really it’s not impossible to get a reusable water bottle and refill it honestly I think they should either stop selling plastic water bottles or at least make a law that you have to recycle them haven’t you ever been irked buy crushed water bottles laying all over the ground or have you ever heard of the pacific trash vortex it’s a giant heap of litter in the middle of the pacific ocean and its estimated to be about twice the size of Texas. Think about it if that stuff had been recycled first of all it would not be there and second, thousands of marine creatures’ lives would be saved.

Sure, buying a new eco-friendly car is not on your to-do list but just stop driving around aimlessly. Have you ever been sitting around outside and you see a car and you know it’s just another car but then a few minutes later you see it again and you’re like hey there’s the same car I just saw and you know it’s still just a car but then you see it several more times and then it starts to get under your skin you think on a wonderful day like today why would someone be just driving around? If you need something to do just run outside or in a gym. Also if you don’t mind in the summer you can turn off that a
AC and roll down the window.

But if you can’t do any of that you can at least do this one thing don’t litter. I cannot tell you how many times I have gone outside or to a park and seen trash thrown about. How hard is it to walk over to a trash can and drop it in? Besides the trash sitting on the ground soaking up water and baking in the sunlight is revolting cannot you tell the look, the smell everything about it? If you say I don’t even go outside so I don’t litter well I can tell you something sitting inside I’m guessing you’re using electricity somehow and to make electricity they burn coal and yes it doesn’t release many fumes but after a while it adds up so if it’s a great day nice and sunny outside go on out. Yes, in the middle of winter those days don’t come by often but don’t sit around with all the lights on watching TV while cooking something in the oven or microwave. You can do something inside without using electricity read a book or play a board game no you don’t always have to do that you can still watch TV and other things just every once and a while turn it off go outside or read a book or something of that matter.
Now you don’t have to do everything I just said you don’t have to join every single support group you possibly can and you don’t have to make giant changes it just takes a small change from each and every one of us that adds up and makes one great big difference.

Answer:

Personification

Explanation:

If this were a simile it would compare the acid to something using the word "as".

If this were a metaphor it would be comparing the acid to something else but not using the word "as".

Personification is when you put human-like characteristics into an inanimate thing, such as acid eating.

However, nothing is better than watching movies with my loyal black cat, Max.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

You almost always have to put a comma after the word however for a better flow of reading. Having a comma after the word loyal makes the sentence feel un-natural to read. So that comma should be removed. The rest of the options just made the correct sentences grammatically incorrect, which is why D is the best option.

D) I often ask my dad, who is an excellent athlete, to play soccer with me.

Answer:

Jekyll has to decide whether to be all Jekyll or all Hyde now that the potion is not working correctly.

At a point, the mixture, which is the way, quits filling in as viably as toward the start as it begins losing power and as an outcome the most exceedingly awful parts of Hyde's character were being shown, and it was additionally an expanding pattern.

Explanation:

Dr. Jekyll’s conflict in this passage is Jekyll has to decide whether to be all Jekyll or all Hyde now that the potion is not working correctly. Thus the correct option is A.

What is a conflict?

In a story, conflict is the struggle between two forces. There is no storyline if there is no dispute. Conflict is a problem that must be resolved. It is a conflict between the lead character and the opposition forces. It serves as the foundation for the plot of the story.

In the given case, the context is derived from "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," determining the conflict of the story by identifying the theme as the Good vs. Evil sides of an individual's personality.

In this situation, there will be a conflict since the doctor must decide between the two characters. He can't be Mr. Hyde or himself. The complexity of his own nature has long impressed Jekyll, who admits to Utterson.

Therefore,  option A is appropriate.

2. If we changed the word antidote to gift, what effect would it have on the meaning of the sentence?

Answers

Answer:

1. The author implies that the inability to feel for another is a sickness and its remedy or cure is Art.

2. Changing the word antidote to gift would make art seem like an endowment or talent rather that can prove helpful to him.

Explanation:

An antidote is a remedy for a disease. It is like a medicine that can be used to cure an ailment. When the author said that art is an antidote that can restore our inability to feel for another, it implies that the inability to feel for another is like a disease whose remedy can only be art.

Changing the word antidote to 'gift' makes us see art as a privilege bestowed on a person that can serve a useful purpose for him.
