1. How does the "heavy slab" fall?
A. Pip learns that he is being hunted by debt collectors.
O B. Pip realizes that he has been harsh and ungrateful to Joe.
O C. Miss Havisham realizes that she has raised Estella to be cold-hearted.
O D. Pip learns his benefactor is "his" convict.

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Great Expectations is a novel written by Charles Dickens. The novel centers the life of Pip, the protagonist of the novel.

In Chapter 38, Pip uses the metaphor of falling of heavy slab when he learned that his benefactor is 'his' convict. Throughout to this point of the novel, Pip considered that Miss Havisham is his benefactor because she wants him and Estella to be together. But when he learned that Estella has actually chose Drummel to be her husband and that his real benefactor is the convict, whom he helped years ago in the graveyard, he used the metaphor of falling of heavy slab.

So, the correct  answer is option D.

Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area. The facts of yesterday speak for themselves. The people of the United States have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.


As Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy, I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense.

Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.

I believe I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.
Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory and our interests are in grave danger.

With confidence in our armed forces - with the unbounded determination of our people - we will gain the inevitable triumph - so help us God.

How to Do a Cartwheel
One of the simplest gymnastic tricks is the cartwheel. When you do a cartwheel, you go upside down, but never really leave the ground!
 
Here is a simple method to learn how to do a cartwheel. First, prepare. You need to wear  comfortable athletic clothing that you won’t trip over. I suggest bare feet so you don’t slip. Have a soft surface like a mat, and always have a spotter. A spotter is someone who looks after your safety, and catches you if you are about to fall.
 
Now you are ready to begin. Stand with legs shoulder-width apart and arms extended horizontally. Lift your left foot and then bring it down to the floor. This will give you momentum. Bend slightly and put your left hand on the floor, then put your right hand next to your left hand on the floor.
 
Now, have your legs follow your hands. Lift your legs off the ground and rotate slightly to place them on the other side of your hands. Basically, you have your hands on the ground, and you are jumping your legs from one side of your hands to the other.
 
At first you will look like you are just jumping with your hands on the ground. As you practice, you can lift your legs higher so that they are vertical and your body looks like the spokes of a cartwheel.

How does Kennedy’s word choice affect the tone and meaning of this excerpt from the passage? While the wall is the most obvious and vivid demonstration of the failures of the Communist system, for all the world to see, we take no satisfaction in it, for it is, as your Mayor has said, an offense not only against history but an offense against humanity, separating families, dividing husbands and wives and brothers and sisters, and dividing a people who wish to be joined together. The phrase “obvious and vivid” sets an aggravated tone and suggests Kennedy is weary of standing up to communism. The phrases “brothers and sisters” and “joined together” suggest a peaceful tone and highlight the need for cooperation with communists. Repetition of the word “offense” develops an angry tone and emphasizes the destructiveness of communism. Repetition of the word “dividing” creates a frustrated tone and suggests Kennedy is prepared to take action against communists.

Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game." Some wounded thing, by the evidence a large animal, had thrashed about in the underbrush; the jungle weeds were crushed down and the moss was lacerated; one patch of weeds was stained crimson. A small, glittering object not far away caught Rainsford's eye and he picked it up. It was an empty cartridge. "A twenty-two," he remarked. "That's odd. It must have been a fairly large animal too. The hunter had his nerve with him to tackle it with a light gun. It's clear that the brute put up a fight. I suppose the first three shots I heard was when the hunter flushed his quarry and wounded it. The last shot was when he trailed it here and finished it."

Read the following:
"Thanksgiving chefs have a tough choice to make: stuffing or dressing? Both dishes are a delightful mix of bread, vegetables, aromatic spices, and
fat. But that's where the similarities end.
"Stuffing is cooked inside the turkey. It spends hours soaking up lots and lots of turkey juices. No matter what, stuffing will always taste like turkey.
There's no point in adding expensive or delicately flavored ingredients because the baked-in flavor of turkey will not be denied. Dressing is cooked
separately, which allows the taste of the individual ingredients to shine through. Experimentation is rewarded with dressing, so go ahead and throw in
something exotic, like sausage, oysters, sourdough, or cornbread.
"There's only so much space inside a turkey, so there is never enough stuffing. It rarely lasts until the end of the main meal, making it a fleeting treat.
Dressing is limited only by the size of the oven. It's easy to make large quantities that can feed a crowd and still provide days (and days) of leftovers.
"Perhaps the most important difference between stuffing and dressing is the risk of food poisoning. Stuffing must get hot enough to kill all the
bacteria it picks up from the turkey. It can still be dangerously undercooked when the meat is done, but many home chefs don't think to measure stuffing
temperature. Dressing is far less likely to be contaminated, and it also cooks faster because it bakes alone in a pan."
What are the points of comparison used to compare dressing and stuffing?

ingredients, recipes, temperature, bacteria

inside the turkey, outside the turkey, popularity, food safety

cooking technique, leftovers, food poisoning

preparation, taste, amount, safety
