1. A penny for your thoughts? If it's a 1943 copper penny, it could be worth as much as fifty
thousand dollars. In 1943. most pennies were made out of steel since copper was needed for
World War II, so the 1943 copper penny is ultra-rare. Another rarity is the 1955 double die
penny. These pennies were mistakenly donble stamped, so they have overlapping dates and
letters. If it's uncirculated, it'd easily fetch $25.000 at an auction. Now that's a pretty penny.

A. A middle-class girl living in England during the 1700s

Explanation:

Well we can assume she is not from the 21st century because it says "No decent lady would be seen at the wharf" but in the 21st century many people don't go to the wharf and out of those people there may be some women as society today isn't so tough on women anymore. In the West in the 1800s, the west had just been explored by colonists and there probably weren't any wharfs there either. If I were to choose, I would select A.

Cervantes describes a dangerous battle, but by adding the cushion as a defense against Quixote’s weapon—a branch from an oak tree that he used to replace his broken sword from the windmill attack—we see the _____ nature of the entire event.

A: fantastic

B: comedic

C: serious

D: dangerous

Answers

Answer:

We see the B: comedic nature of the entire event.

Explanation:

Don Quixote is a character created by author Miguel de Cervantes. He is a lovely, chivalrous man who lives the illusion of being a knight. Don Quixote has a sense of earnest purpose, trying to improve the world without realizing his own madness. Everything is different to his eyes - windmills are giants with whom he fights, for instance. His idealistic, romanticized perspective is quite funny to watch, his battles having a comedic nature to them. His using a a branch from an oak tree as a sword, for example, is quite childish. No one can watch (or read, for that matter) a battle in which cushions and branches are used seriously. It's just like watching children playing around.

B: comedic

Animal Farm
Why are the animals happy in their work, despite the fact that they work like slaves?What is ironic about their reason for being happy?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

They think that their doing it because they choose to, instead of someone forcing them. It gives them a sense of control and freedom in a way.

Its ironic because they aren't truly choosing to do it, nor do they have the freedom or control they think they have, the pigs can enforce rules and whatnot upon them and they are completely powerless against it

Even though they were "working like slaves," the animals were nonetheless very content since they believed that all of their labour would be for their own advantage and not that of humans, who would not reap the rewards of their labour.

What is irony Animal Farm?

In Animal Farm, George Orwell uses situational irony to illustrate Lord Acton's statement that "absolute power corrupts absolutely" by portraying the pigs as corrupted leaders. When the pigs are telling the animals to work, situational irony is evident because it goes against what most readers would assume.

That year, the animals labour like slaves, but they are content because they know that humans won't benefit from their labour. Through the summer, they put in 60-hour work weeks, and in August, Napoleon says they'll start working on Sunday afternoons. Even though it's optional, animals who don't labour on Sundays will receive lower rations.

Thus, Even though they were "working like slaves," the animals were nonetheless very content.

which words could replace the subordinating conjunction in the sentence while maintaining its original structure

Answers

Hello. This question is incomplete. the complete question is:

"Read the sentence. The faculty was able to teach computer science classes now that the school built a new lab. Which words could replace the subordinating conjunction in the sentence while maintaining its original structure? Check all that apply. and because but since so "

Answer:

"Because" and "since".  

Explanation:

Subordinate conjunctions are those that have the ability to unite two sentences that have no meaning on their own, but that need each other in order to complement each other.

In the case of the sentence shown above, the subordinate conjunction is the word "that" which establishes a causal relationship between the first and second sentences. This word could easily be replaced by "because" and "since" and keep the same meaning.

Answer:

B and D

3. Reflect on the Langston Hughes poem Silence. Identify some evidence in the poem that explains OR describes something about main character Ned. Include specific evidence from the text. Write 3-4 sentences.


Answer: In the Code Talker Ned was a navajos and he wanted to learn about white people culture, language, but I think Ned didn’t know how to speak in english, so I think he decided to become a code talker. In the poem it says, I catch the pattern of your silences before you speak, which means he didn’t know white’s people language to learn about them but he still was successful in his work. For example, Ned is a Navajo Indian who is very intelligent. He loves to study and would like to be a teacher when he grows up. Instead he is planning on fighting in the war. Ned becomes a Marine at age 16 and he becomes a Code Talker.

Answers

Answer:

Ned was a 'Nevajos' and he wanted to learn about the white people's culture and language. Because he couldn't speak English, Ned decided to be a code talker. From the poem, we can see where he said "I catch the pattern of your silences, before you speak" which indicates that as much as he was not able to learn the white man's language, he was still able to communicate and deal with them. Ned is a very intelligent Nevajo Indian who loves to study hard because he had dreams of becoming a teacher when he grows up, in the stead of his dreams, he plans to go fight in the war and finally becomes a Marine and a code talker at age 16.
