In this story from Aesop's Fables, which two words have negative connotations?
The Fox and the Monkey
by Aesop
A Fox and a Monkey were on the road together, and fell into a dispute as to which of the two was the better born. They kept it up for some time,
till they came to a place where the road passed through a cemetery full of monuments, when the Monkey stopped and looked about him and
gave a great sigh. "Why do you sigh?" said the Fox. The Monkey pointed to the tombs and replied, "All the monuments that you see here were
put up in honour of my forefathers, who in their day were eminent men." The Fox was speechless for a moment, but quickly recovering he said,
"Oh! don't stop at any lie, sir: you're quite safe: I'm sure none of your ancestors will rise up and expose you."
Boasters brag most when they cannot be detected.

Which sentence from the passage suggests that the narrator's creation wants to speak with the narrator?

from Frankenstein by Mary Shelley It was on a dreary night of November that I beheld the accomplishment of my toils. With an anxiety that almost amounted to agony, I collected the instruments of life around me, that I might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs. How can I describe my emotions at this catastrophe, or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care I had endeavoured to form? His limbs were in proportion, and I had selected his features as beautiful. Beautiful! Great God! His yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness; but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes, that seemed almost of the same colour as the dun-white sockets in which they were set, his shrivelled complexion and straight black lips. The different accidents of life are not so changeable as the feelings of human nature. I had worked hard for nearly two years, for the sole purpose of infusing life into an inanimate body. For this I had deprived myself of rest and health. I had desired it with an ardour that far exceeded moderation; but now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart. Unable to endure the aspect of the being I had created, I rushed out of the room and continued a long time traversing my bed-chamber, unable to compose my mind to sleep. At length lassitude succeeded to the tumult I had before endured, and I threw myself on the bed in my clothes, endeavouring to seek a few moments of forgetfulness. But it was in vain; I slept, indeed, but I was disturbed by the wildest dreams. I thought I saw Elizabeth, in the bloom of health, walking in the streets of Ingolstadt. Delighted and surprised, I embraced her, but as I imprinted the first kiss on her lips, they became livid with the hue of death; her features appeared to change, and I thought that I held the corpse of my dead mother in my arms; a shroud enveloped her form, and I saw the grave-worms crawling in the folds of the flannel. I started from my sleep with horror; a cold dew covered my forehead, my teeth chattered, and every limb became convulsed; when, by the dim and yellow light of the moon, as it forced its way through the window shutters, I beheld the wretch—the miserable monster whom I had created. He held up the curtain of the bed; and his eyes, if eyes they may be called, were fixed on me. His jaws opened, and he muttered some inarticulate sounds, while a grin wrinkled his cheeks. He might have spoken, but I did not hear; one hand was stretched out, seemingly to detain me, but I escaped and rushed downstairs. I took refuge in the courtyard belonging to the house which I inhabited, where I remained during the rest of the night, walking up and down in the greatest agitation, listening attentively, catching and fearing each sound as if it were to announce the approach of the demoniacal corpse to which I had so miserably given life. Oh! No mortal could support the horror of that countenance. A mummy again endued with animation could not be so hideous as that wretch. I had gazed on him while unfinished; he was ugly then, but when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion, it became a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived. I passed the night wretchedly. Sometimes my pulse beat so quickly and hardly that I felt the palpitation of every artery; at others, I nearly sank to the ground through languor and extreme weakness. Mingled with this horror, I felt the bitterness of disappointment; dreams that had been my food and pleasant rest for so long a space were now become a hell to me; and the change was so rapid, the overthrow so complete! Morning, dismal and wet, at length dawned and discovered to my sleepless and aching eyes the church of Ingolstadt, its white steeple and clock, which indicated the sixth hour. The porter opened the gates of the court, which had that night been my asylum, and I issued into the streets, pacing them with quick steps, as if I sought to avoid the wretch whom I feared every turning of the street would present to my view. I did not dare return to the apartment which I inhabited, but felt impelled to hurry on, although drenched by the rain which poured from a black and comfortless sky.

What evidence supports the reason? Check all that apply.
Reason: Traditionally, the Nobel Prize in Literature has been awarded to writers of prose and poetry, while musicians like Bob Dylan have been honored by awards reserved for musicians.
The Nobel Prize in Literature has never before been awarded to a musician.
What many people do not know is that Dylan has published writing outside of his genre, including a book of poetry titled Tarantula and a memoir titled Chronicles: Volume One.
There are numerous awards associated with the work of musicians, including the Grammy, the Academy Award, and the Golden Globe, all of which Dylan has won.
Awarding the Nobel Prize in Literature to a popular songwriter makes traditional poetry seem less important.
Anna North agrees and thinks that “by awarding the prize to him, the Nobel committee is choosing not to award it to a writer, and that is a disappointing choice.”

Which evidence would be best to add after sentence 11 to support the argument that the newspaper can help students improve their writing skills?

The following is a student draft. It may contain errors.
School Paper
(1) Last week, the school administrators announced that they will be canceling the school newspaper. (2) However, this is a huge mistake. (3) The paper is very popular, not just as a source of information but as a learning tool. (4) The school should keep its student-run newspaper.
(5) The administrators state that having a school newspaper is no longer needed because we now have a social media site on which to post news and updates. (6) However, that is not entirely true. (7) There is more to the newspaper than just news and updates.
(8) Another claim is that having a school newspaper is not environmentally responsible. (9) However, the newspaper does not have to be on actual paper; it could be on a web page online.
(10) Additionally, the newspaper provides a better format for students to develop their writing skills. (11) Having just a social media site does not allow for students to write longer articles. (12) Therefore, it is important that the school keep its newspaper.

A.) Posts on social media are generally more casual, whereas writing for a newspaper requires more formal writing.
B.) Our social media site only allows for short posts, whereas our newspaper allows students to develop their ideas more fully.
C.) Our social media site has an automatic grammar and spell checker, so students may rely on that and not learn how to correct errors in their own work.
D.) Unlike newspapers, it is acceptable for social media posts to have numerous grammatical errors.
