I never spoke
the language
of the old woman

I never held my head
to their thin chests
believing in the heart.

Indian women, forgive me.
I grew up distant
and always afraid.

Read this excerpt from Anne Frank Remembered.

That day I walked to Gestapo headquarters. The red-and-black swastika flew from the flagpole. Uniformed Germans were everywhere. It was a well-known fact that people who entered this building did not always leave it again. I entered the building and inquired of the soldiers on guard where this Austrian had his office.

I was told which office, and went directly there. It was a medium-sized room, filled with desks, all occupied by workers who were busily typing. The Austrian's desk was in the corner of the room. He sat behind it facing me when I entered. His name was Karl Silberbauer.

I went up to his desk and stood with my back to the typists. I'd been thrown off by the fact that he wasn't alone, so all I did was stand there, briefly looking into his eyes. Any spoken words would have been audible throughout the room, so I just stood and didn't say a word. All I did was rub my thumb against the two fingers beside it, the index finger and the middle finger – the sign for money.

Why does Miep choose to visit Gestapo headquarters?

She is no longer afraid of the Germans.
She seeks a friendship with the Austrian.
She believes the Austrian owes her money.
She is desperate to find help for her friends.

Answers

Answer:

C. It adds a negative connotation to the idea of a candidate having less privacy.

Explanation:

The passage is not included but to scrutinise means to look very closely at something or examine in a thorough manner which would connote an invasion of privacy when used to examine someone with or without the person's knowledge.

Therefore, the likely impact of the author's use of the word "scrutinise" would likely have the impact of someone having his privacy invaded which would add a negative connotation.

Shedding Light on a Dark Day, by Robin Meriwether
On May 19, 1780, the skies over New England turned dark in the middle of the day. For more than two hundred years, New England's Dark Day had been shrouded in mystery. Some blamed volcanoes. Some suggested supernatural events. Some claimed it was a sign from the heavens. No one knew for certain what happened. Many thought the mystery would never be solved.

Researchers at the University of Missouri were fascinated by the case. They began examining trees in all surrounding areas. Fire damage in a Canadian forest finally revealed the truth. Scientists looked at burned tree rings and discovered that huge wildfires once raged in the mountains near Ontario. The savage flames created blankets of black smoke. The smoke traveled high into the atmosphere, darkening the New England skies hundreds of miles away.
A student attempting to identify the main idea of paragraph two wrote the following sentence:

Voting is important because it’s every American individuals civic duty to get their voice heard and determine the future of their country

Answer:

Voting is important because it is what makes up democracy. Even though someone may say "Oh, I'm just one vote and it doesn't count that much." doesn't mean that's true. There are a lot of citizens in the US who don't vote and they might just be thinking that their vote wouldn't count anyway when it actually would. If all of the people who didn't vote actually voted for what they wanted and knew to be right, they could change the outcomes of elections. Each vote counts, you never know, maybe your choice if one away from losing but when you vote for them- they have more of a chance to pull through and win.

Excerpt from Book of Etiquette
Lillian Eichler

Various foods are eaten with the fingers instead of fork or spoon. Bread, for instance, is never cut but always broken into small pieces and lifted to the mouth with the fingers. Butter is seldom provided at the formal dinner, but if it is, each little piece of bread is buttered individually just before it is eaten. Crackers and cake are eaten in the same way; although some cakes and pastries are eaten with the fork. Those that can be eaten daintily with the fingers such as macaroons, lady-fingers, cookies, etc., should be eaten so while layer cake and elaborate pastries should be eaten with the fork.
