Read the excerpt from The Giver and answer the questions that follows.
Jonas, nearing his home now, smiled at the recollection. Thinking, still, as he wheeled his bike into its
narrow port beside the door, he realized that frightened was the wrong word to describe his feelings, now
that December was almost here. It was too strong an adjective.
He had waited a long time for this special December. Now that it was almost upon him, he wasn't frightened,
but he was... eager, he decided. He was eager for it to come. And he was excited, certainly. All of the
Elevens were excited about the event that would be coming so soon.
What is the meaning of eager as it is used in the excerpt?
distracted by another thought
o careful about approaching something
O looking forward to something
o worried about the future

Which two excerpts are examples of persuasive text?
Select the correct excerpt.
excerpt 1
Early that morning, a young, blue-eyed detective in a belge coat stood in the open doorway of the motel room,
closing an umbrella. A friend on the police force had secretly allowed the detective to enter the room with the
understanding that nothing would be touched. Though this restriction made the job more difficult, the confident
detective knew that well-trained
eyes could find a lot of clues on their own. Suddenly, the detective was nearly
knocked off balance by a muddy dog chasing a black cat into the room.
excerpt 2
The minimum age for obtaining a driver's license should be lowered from 16 to 15. If 15-year-olds can drive with a
special driver's permit, why not just lower the legal age for a license to 15? Since most 15-year-olds are getting ready
to get a job anyway, they need a license earlier so they can start looking for employment. Most importantly,
if 15-year-olds were allowed to drive earlier, we would need fewer school buses. Students could start driving
themselves to school a year earlier.
excerpt 3
Like me, you probably could make the move. The move, that is, to eat better meals and to do something active
every day. It's definitely made me feel better. I've even improved my grades as a result. In fact, I've done well on my

excerpt 4
The shabby, old piano had belonged to Lani's grandmother and, from the look of it had belonged to others before
her. The piano stood neglected in the living room until Lani was two-years-old and had grown tall enough to reach

Answer:

In the Disney's film show, "101 Dalmatians", Cruella, was the antagonist of the show. Cruella had black and white hair, which as a young child was made fun of for. Cruella wore animal fur coats, and would often murder animals just for them. When she found out about Dalmatians, she thought to herself, "That she must have this print!". Cruella then proceeded to dognap dozens and dozens of puppies from all around, including 2 special dogs puppies.

First off, Cruella was seen throughout the beginning of the film show rarely, up until she discovered the puppies, in which she decided looked beautiful. Cruella smoked heavily throughout the show, through a pipe smoker. Cruella knew the owners of the puppies well, where they lived, the dogs they had, and etc. Though the owners tried to hide the puppies, she still dognapped them.

Then, Cruella took the stolen puppies to what seemed to be an abounded warehouse of some sort. But the parents of their puppies were not having this, while the Owners were looking, and seeking help, the parents were finding their puppies. The puppies, being smart, led eachother away from Cruella. The police were on the lookout for both Cruella, and her 2 henchmen.

Later on, the puppies were found, and Cruella and her henchman, cold, and "ugly", were caught. They were arrested for stealing the animals, and for animal cruelty. The puppies were saved, and given back to the original owner, and then many other puppies were also saved, and then given new homes.

In conclusion, Cruella was a mad person, who often harmed animals for her own benefit, once given the chance, she dognapped puppies to make a coat out of them. But, she failed, her henchmen were frozen, with the help of adult dogs, the puppies were saved, and returned. Then Cruella was sent away with her henchmen.

Jefferson gives a long list of facts to be submitted to a candid world give a short explanation of how this list helps Jefferson achieve his purpose of justifying a revolution.

Answers

Answer:

Jefferson achieve his purpose of justifying a revolution by providing the evidence that the British were not only exploiting but terrorising the colonies under them

It provides evidence that supports the thesis  It connects evidence and main ideas  It appeals to readers and their shared experiences as colonists

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson is the Founding Father of U.S.A. His famous pronouncement ‘Declaration of Independence’ served as a powerful doctrine to rid the Americans from the yoke of British rule.

In his long list of Facts that Jefferson stated had to be submitted to a ‘candid world’, he emphasised upon the tyranny of the British Empire on the colonies; how the colonised were being very badly exploited and deprived of their Natural Rights; how Slavery was being imposed upon them and they were leading a very inhumane life.  

The Declaration served as a doctrine for human rights fighting for the liberty and equality of all human beings. The points stated by it thus became a dogma that justified Jefferson’s purpose of a revolution.

Answer:

The "Facts to be submitted to the candid world" was introduced in the Declaration to gain support for Jefferson's and other scholars cause. This is known as his personal list of grievances against the King. The list highlights all of the King's wrongdoings to the people. It helps Jefferson to show the people why he and his fellow scholars want to seek independence. He submitted hard facts about the wrongdoings and injustices the American citizens had endured. He set the list up as a trial lawyer would in a clear and concise manner. He pleaded with the foreign nations to use a line of reasoning and to use only positive law.

How does the historical context of the story develop the father’s point of view about himself?

Answers

He suffered torture in a dictator's prison in Haiti, so he thinks he must forget his past is the historical context of the story. Therefore option B is correct.

Enduring torture in a dictator's prison in Haiti creates a traumatic experience that he might wish to distance himself from. The horrors he suffered could drive him to seek solace by trying to forget his painful past.

This attempt at self-preservation and healing could lead him to adopt the viewpoint that he must let go of his history to move forward.

This illustrates the profound impact of historical trauma on personal identity, as the father's survival instinct compels him to mentally detach from his past for the sake of his own well-being.

Therefore option B is correct.

I have to write an essay by tomorrow about if maturity is based on age

Answers

Answer:

Maturity is not based on a person's age. Rather, maturity is based on a person's personality, their actions, and their virtues. A person could be in their late 20s, but act rash and childish. A person in their early teens might have difficulties that an adult can easily deal with, but the way the teen manages it can show if they're mature or immature. Maturity has many factors, and age is just a minor one. What age truly brings is experience, but not immediately maturity.

Answer:

I believe this essay is supposed to more based on your own opinions because out in the world there are people who are 42 who aren't mature enough for life due to their life experiences but then you can have a 16 year old could be more mature due to hardships they had to face in life.
