From “Self-Made Men” by Frederick Douglass
6 Our best and most valued acquisitions have been obtained either from our contemporaries or from those who have preceded us in the field of thought and discovery. We have all either begged, borrowed or stolen. We have reaped where others have sown, and that which others have strown, we have gathered. It must in truth be said, though it may not accord well with self-conscious individuality and self-conceit, that no possible native force of character, and no depth of wealth and originality, can lift a man into absolute independence of his fellowmen, and no generation of men can be independent of the preceding generation. The brotherhood and inter-dependence of mankind are guarded and defended at all points. I believe in individuality, but individuals are, to the mass, like waves to the ocean. The highest order of genius is as dependent as is the lowest. It, like the loftiest waves of the sea, derives its power and greatness from the grandeur and vastness of the ocean of which it forms a part. We differ as the waves, but are one as the sea. To do something well does not necessarily imply the ability to do everything else equally well. If you can do in one direction that which I cannot do, I may in another direction, be able to do that which you cannot do. Thus the balance of power is kept comparatively even, and a self-acting brotherhood and inter-dependence is maintained.

7 Nevertheless, the title of my lecture is eminently descriptive of a class and is, moreover, a fit and convenient one for my purpose, in illustrating the idea which I have in view. In the order of discussion I shall adopt the style of an old-fashioned preacher and have a "firstly," a "secondly," a "thirdly," a "fourthly" and, possibly, a "conclusion."

8 My first is, "Who are self-made men?" My second is, "What is the true theory of their success?" My third is, "The advantages which self-made men derive from the manners and institutions of their surroundings," and my fourth is, "The grounds of the criticism to which they are, as a class, especially exposed."

Which sentence from the excerpt best expresses the author’s message in this part of the text?
A. “We have all either begged, borrowed or stolen.”
B. “I believe in individuality, but individuals are, to the mass, like waves to the ocean.”
C. “In the order of discussion I shall adopt the style of an old-fashioned preacher and have ‘firstly,’ a ‘secondly,’ a ‘thirdly,’ a ‘fourthly’ and, possibly, a ‘conclusion.’”
D. My first is, "Who are self-made men?" My second is, "What is the true theory of their success?”

Based on this excerpt, the audience of the text can be inferred to be—
A. people interested in the practices of preachers.
B. people interested in the values of American society.
C. people interested in the achievements of individuals.
D. people interested the biography of Frederick Douglass.

Which of the following is a term that the author uses effectively to achieve his purpose?
A. “sown”
B. “inter-dependence”
C. “grandeur”
D. “lecture”

Read "She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways" by William Wordsworth and answer the question.
SHE dwelt among the untrodden ways
Beside the springs of Dove,
A Mald whom there were none to praise
And very few to love:
A violet by a mossy stone
Half hidden from the eye!
-Fair as a star, when only one
Is shining in the sky.
She lived unknown, and few could know
When Lucy ceased to be;
But she is in her grave, and, oh,
The difference to me!
When comparing the first stanza to the third, the reader identifies which irony?
A.the narrator has never met Lucy
B.though few have met Lucy, her impact in the narrator's life is great
C.the narrator's love for Lucy is built on superficial details D.readers know almost nothing about the narrator

Answers

pretty sure it is B

In the beginning, the narrator expresses appreciation towards Lucy. “She lives unknown, and few could know” is what brought me to this answer

An adjective that depicts anything just below the surface is subterranean, such as the subterranean resentment you conceal behind a smile and good words for the actor who landed the role you sought. You keep "on the down low" your intents and subterranean sentiments. In actuality, subterranean items are actually underground and down low. A subterranean worm resides below the surface of the earth.

A subterranean lair is a hidden hiding place dug under the ground, or it might be your basement. The Latin subterraneous, from sub meaning "beneath" and terra meaning "earth," is whence the word subterraneous originates.

Example: A subterranean river or tunnel is under the ground. The city has many subterranean passages.

Is The Spelling and grammer right??

The League of Nations was an organisation of countries which formed in January 1920. Its aim was to prevent wars but it failed to do this because it had many limitations. Representation at the League was often a problem. Germany and the Soviet Union were excluded at first. Japan and Italy later left, and the United States never joined, which took away much of the League's potential power. This meant that the League of Nations depended too much on Britain and France and did not have enough abutment. There were further problems with its organisation. Needing decisions to be unanimous meant that it sometimes took them a long time to intervene. For example, Japan conquered Manchuria in 1932. The League objected, but could do nothing, Japan ignored the league and left. Most importantly, the League’s promise to provide military support against aggressive states was not always promised. They had no army and nations were hesitant to risk war after World War I and the Depression. The League was weak when it failed to help Abyssinia, when Italy invaded it in 1935. Although the League officially condemned the Italians. aggressor nations undermining its authority and its own members - actions that arguably led to the outbreak of the Second World War.

The type of claim which the author uses in the introductory paragraph of the text "Is Homework Truly Beneficial?" is a value claim because it is saying that "the researchers believed that homework had a negative impact on students' physical and emotional health".
