Read the passage and answer the question.

[1]Nothing that comes from the desert expresses its extremes better than the unhappy growth of the
tree yuccas.Tormented, thin forests of it stalk drearily in the high mesas, particularly in that
triangular slip that fans out eastward from the meeting of the Sierras and coastwise hills. The
yucca bristles with bayonet-pointed leaves, dull green, growing shaggy with age like an old
[5] man's tangled gray beard, tipped with panicles of foul, greenish blooms. After its death, which is
slow, the ghostly hollow network of its woody skeleton, with hardly power to rot, makes even
the moonlight fearful. But it isn't always this way. Before the yucca has come to flower, while
yet its bloom is a luxurious, creamy, cone-shaped bud of the size of a small cabbage, full of
sugary sap, the Indians twist it deftly out of its fence of daggers and roast the prize for their
[10] own delectation.

Why does the author use the word "prize" to describe the bloom of the yucca tree (line 9)?

To communicate how rare it is to find the bloom
To emphasize the deliciousness of the bloom
To highlight the color and shape of the bloom
To show how to prepare the bloom for eating

Answers

Friendship makes for a good support system in the world. People often find that the world is a big lonely place, and humans are social beings. We kinda need friends to keep ourselves sane, even though sometimes our friends can be the ones that drive us insane. Sometimes there’s disagreements and you simply can’t come to agreeable terms, you can’t believe them. That’s ok, though. People have disagreements all the time, what makes you friends is the fact that you can come together over other things despite having disagreements. Nobody is the same, we’re bound to have disagreements with friends. Our friends our very valuable to us as I said in the beginning, we need them for support. Even when you may give up on yourself, they’ll root for you and pick you up in the end.

Read the following excerpt from the story. Which term most accurately describes the writer’s tone.

But Father Gonzaga, before becoming a priest, had been a robust woodcutter. Standing by the wire, he reviewed his catechism in an instant and asked them to open the door so that he could take a close look at that pitiful man who looked more like a huge decrepit hen among the fascinated chickens. He was lying in the corner drying his open wings in the sunlight among the fruit peels and breakfast leftovers that the early risers had thrown him. Alien to the impertinences of the world, he only lifted his antiquarian eyes and murmured something in his dialect when Father Gonzaga went into the chicken coop and said good morning to him in Latin. The parish priest had his first suspicion of an imposter when he saw that he did not understand the language of God or know how to greet His ministers. Then he noticed that seen close up he was much too human: he had an unbearable smell of the outdoors, the back side of his wings was strewn with parasites and his main feathers had been mistreated by terrestrial winds, and nothing about him measured up to the proud dignity of angels.

ОА.
It is not in a question form.
OB.
It cannot be supported by evidence.
O c.
It does not make an arguable claim.
OD.
It includes only one main idea.

Answers

Answer:

C). It does not make an arguable claim.

Explanation:

The given thesis statement would be considered weak for an interpretive essay because it fails to make a claim that can be argued upon or further supported by evidence. It states a basic fact that the poem is written in dramatic monologue instead of offering an arguable claim that what the poem is offering or regarding the intended message of the poet to draw a conclusion of the essay. It neither gives a general idea about the content of the poem nor does it offer the key idea of the poem. Hence, it is a weak thesis statement and hence, option C is the correct answer.

What's in a Name?

Mucus is a great word, not only because it gives name to an important bodily function, but also because it is one of those words that simultaneously makes you feel grossed-out and giggly. Other words for this powerfully important human-health tool include slime and phlegm. Slang words for mucus include boogers and snot. All of these words have the same giggle-power, simply from the combination of consonants and vowels. By the way, mucus is an old word; it's been around since the mid-1600s and has roots back to Latin (mucere, to be moldy or musty) and Greek (myxa, mucus). While you may assume that words like snot and boogers are relatively new slang terms, they are not. Snot dates to 1560 and comes from an Old English word, gesnot, and has the same root as the word snout. The word booger is not quite as old but has been in use since the 1890s.

Which line from "Making the Most of Mucus" best states the main point of the essay? (1 point)
