50 POINTS! Explain what this quote means
“The greatest guilt today is that of people who accept collectivism by moral default; the people who seek protection from the necessity of taking a stand, by refusing to admit to themselves the nature of that which they are accepting; the people who support plans specifically designed to achieve serfdom, but hide behind the empty assertion that they are lovers of freedom, with no concrete meaning attached to the word; the people who believe that the content of ideas need not be examined, that principles need not be defined, and that facts can be eliminated by keeping one's eyes shut.”
Answer: "Social gains," "social aims," "social objectives" have become the daily bromides of our language. The necessity of a social justification for all activities and all existence is now taken for granted. There is no proposal outrageous enough but what its author can get a respectful hearing and approbation if he claims that in some undefined way it is for "the common good."

Crunch Rocks Cereal Advertisement
Hey kids! I want to tell you about a new cereal straight from the rock piles of Georgia called “Crunch Rocks.” This cereal is crushed by the greasy care of sweaty, sledge-hammering Georgia miners. Each solid stone is carefully selected by the best-behaving criminals in the state and then pulverized into tiny kernels of gravel-like goodness to fill your cereal bowl.
With “Crunch Rocks,” you don’t have to worry about cavities because you won’t have any teeth! The rock pebbles of Crunch of Rocks will destroy them so you have nothing left in your mouth but bleeding gums. You won’t have to waste your time morning and night brushing and flossing, or ever smile for the camera again.
“Crunch of Rocks” is filled with tasty, hard center of delicious fiber and iron. Its multi-mineral composition will rough up your esophagus and then tear through your intestines. While Georgia isn’t the Sunshine State, the rocks in “Crunch Rocks” have spent centuries baking in the sunlight and are a great source of Vitamin D.
Be sure to place “Crunch Rocks” at the bottom of your grocery bad so it doesn’t smash your eggs and bread. “Crunch Rocks” can also be sued to line your fishbowl or fill potholes in your driveway.

How are Mathilde's dreams and desires affected by the setting of "The Necklace"?
Mathilde's understanding of her dreams and desires help her realize her
happiness as a member of the middle class.
Her dreams and desires force her to accept her status and not mingle with the
upper class.
Mathilde is motivated to borrow things she can't afford in order to fit in with a
higher social class.
Mathilde wonders what it would be like to be wealthy, which causes her
unhappiness.
Answer:
Mathilde is motivated to borrow things she can't afford in order to fit in with a higher social class.
Explanation:
Guy de Maupassant's short story "The Necklace," tells the story of Mathilde Loisel and her desire to be 'equal' to the women of the higher class. And in her greed, she led her family through misfortunes which ended downgrading them further.
The setting of the story is a high society where parties are organized, dinners and balls are a regular occurrence for entertainment and socializing. And in this desire to be a part of the higher class and their "parties", Mathilde spent her husband's savings to get a new dress for the ball. Not only that, but she also borrowed a necklace from Forestier which she ended losing at the night of the ball.
To repay the lost necklace, they gave up her inherited money and also borrowed the rest and bought a new necklace. It was after a decade of 'suffering' that they only learned the truth about the necklace- it was a fake and they had replaced it with a genuine one.
Mathilde's dreams and desires make her borrow things she can't afford just so she can fit in with the people of the higher class.

What is the most important function of the balcony as part of the passage’s setting? “The Siege of Berlin,”
Answer:
The Siege of Berlin is a short story written with a war theme.
The bacony in the story functions a symbol of an Old War Veterans hope, disappointment and demise.
Explanation:
Colonel Jouve, according to the story, had taken residence in Champs−Élysées in a building with a Balcony. He was too old to go to war but was enthusiastic that Prussia (which comprises present-day Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Lithuania, Poland, and Russia) would return from the battle victorious.
Soldiers seldom have any other life besides fighting to protect the throne and the sovereignty of their nations. Such was the nature of Colonel Jouve. He lived or died with his country.
His country at way, he had intentionally taken residence at the apartment with the balcony with the intention that on the return of his King and fellow soldiers, he would stand there in full military regalia to witness the triumphant parade of the soldiers.
Unfortunately, after protracted collusion between his doctor and his grandaughter to prevent him for the sad news that would dash his hopes, he, at the sound of what he mistook to be the sound of a victorious army marching back into the city, took to the balcony, in full regalia only to have his very fragile heart dashed to pieces.
Too much for him to bear, he staggered and fell at the sound and sight of the enemy's army.

Answer:
a (Martha wonderd if the clouds meant it would rain, or snow but went anyway
Explanation:
Martha wondered if the clouds meant it would rain, or snow, but went running anyway. The correct sentence is B.
This sentence is correct because it includes a comma before the coordinating conjunction "or" to separate the two options (rain and snow). The comma is necessary to avoid confusion and clearly indicate that "it would rain" and "snow" are separate possibilities.
In contrast, option a) lacks a comma before "or," which makes the sentence grammatically incorrect. Option c) is incorrect because it lacks both a comma before "or" and a comma after "snow." Finally, option d) is incorrect because it lacks a comma after "snow."
By using a comma in option b), the sentence is clear and properly conveys Martha's uncertainty about whether the clouds will bring rain or snow.

Read the excerpt adapted from Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce: The wide playgrounds were swarming with boys playing football. All were shouting and the captains urged them on with strong cries. The evening air was pale and chilly, and the greasy leather ball flew like a heavy bird through the grey light. He kept on the edge of his line, out of sight of his captain, out of the reach of the rude feet, pretending to run now and then. His body felt small and he did his best to hide in plain sight. Which mood does the author develop with syntax and diction? A. joyful B. sarcastic C. angry D. gloomy
Answer:
D. Gloomy.
Explanation:
James Joyce's "Portrait Of An Artist As A Young Man" follows the life of the protagonist Stephen Dedalus, focusing on his intellectual and religious awakening. At the same time, it also deals with the themes of betrayal, alienation, and finding his identity on his way to becoming the famous person he will be.
As seen in the given passage from the text, we see a young Stephen among other boys on the playground. While the others were playing football, he remained on the sidelines, "out of sight of his captain, out of the reach of the rude feet, pretending to run now and then". Added to that, the narrator states that the "evening air was pale and chilly". Through these words, we can know that the scene's mood is gloomy, with no real sense of happiness or excitement in the young Stephen.
