This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.
Read Slaughterhouse-Five, by Kurt Vonnegut.
During the party for Billy and Valencia’s eighteenth wedding anniversary, Billy is greatly upset by the barbershop quartet (219-30; 172-80 in the shorter edition). Summarize what happens to him in this moment and why. What do you think Vonnegut is saying about the nature of memory in this section of the book (and indeed throughout the book)?
Answer:
The barbershop quartet reminds Billy of the German officers when they saw the destruction caused by the bombing of Dresden. Billy breaks down and realizes he has some "big secret" inside. Vonnegut´s ideas about the nature of memory appear in Billy´s suppressing his emotion during the war, to end up having his later civilian life shape by what happened there.
Explanation:
Traumatized by the horrors of war, Billy´s memory constantly takes him into vivid flashbacks, showing that he hasn´t truly processed what he has gone through.
What is the difference between inductive and deductive reasoning.
inductive reasoning moves from specific instances into a generalized conclusion, while deductive reasoning moves from generalized principles that are known to be true to a true and specific conclusion.
In no less than seventy-five words, explain some differences between the kind of memorization that is required in a game like "Telephone" and that which is required by a bard reciting The Odyssey. Comment on the effects of those differences for an oral society versus a literary one.
Different cultures take different approaches to the way they transmit knowledge. These varieties are often classified in two categories: oral and literary traditions.
An oral society is one in which knowledge is transmitted from person to person through speech. We can compare this to the children's game "Telephone," in which children pass along a message by whispering in each other's ear. There are several advantages to this approach. For example, through this method, people only need to memorize the main parts of a story, while being able to alter the details slightly. This requires a memorization that is less precise and more analytical. However, it can also lead to many inaccuracies and unintentional changes.
On the other hand, a literary culture tends to write information down. This allows people to seek out the source and read it without having to meet someone who can recite it to them. This ensures that the text remains the same throughout time. It also allows for more information to be stored. However, memorizing such a text is a more difficult task, as every word and detail needs to remain identical upon recitation. This would be the process a bard would have to follow when reciting The Odyssey.
Although each method would have a different impact on the information that is shared and the effects it has in society, there is no one single perfect method. They each come with advantages and disadvantages for the societies that practice them.
For years, Juliet’s mother had been telling her that flying in an airplane was a pleasant experience, but Juliet wasn’t convinced. She had never flown, so by the time she was 15 and scheduled to fly alone to see her aunt in Montana, Juliet was a nervous wreck. Her mother had packed some snacks into a bag and handed it to the tear-streaked Juliet as she walked onto the plane, looking back forlornly at her mother. When Juliet called that evening from Montana, her mother was shocked at her voice. “I did it, Mom!” Juliet squealed. “And I'm so excited that I get to fly again when I come home in a week!” Which details from the passage support the theme that facing fear can lead to confidence?
Answer:
At the beginning of the passage, it says that her mother says that flying is a great experience, but "Juliet wasn't convinced". She became a "nervous wreck". Juliet was "tear-streaked" as she walked onto the plane. But after she faces her fear, Juliet is proud of her experience. "'I did it, Mom!' Juliet squealed...'so excited that I get to fly again'". She develops confidence when she flies and even looks forward to the experience.

C- keeping track of which hybrid cars are advertised most on television
D- reading a scientific study on how much fuel different hybrid cars use
Answer:
Correct Answer:
D- reading a scientific study on how much fuel different hybrid cars use
Explanation:
In the case of Dexter, who is researching about hybrid cars and its impact on the environment, for him to determine the best hybrid car, he would need to carry out a formal inquiry.
One of the ways through which this could be done would be by, reading a scientific study already carried out on different hybrid car fuel consumption.
This will offer the information on the best for the environment because, the car with the lowest fuel consumption shows lower gas emission to the environment which lowers the environmental challenges.
Dexter is researching which hybrid car is best for the environment reading a scientific study on how much fuel different hybrid cars use .
This is the best example of a formal inquiry for Dexter's research on which hybrid car is best for the environment.
This option involves looking at an established study that has been conducted using a scientific method and presents objective data on fuel efficiency, which is an important factor in determining the environmental impact of a car.

What are two adjectives to describe the tone of Henry Louis Gates Jr.'s "Restoring Black History"?
Answer:
"Outraged" and "satisfied" are the adjectives that can be used to describe the tone of the text.
Explanation:
The text presents a change of tone in the course of its narration that justifies the use of two adjectives to describe it. the words "outraged" and "satisfied", reflect well the tone created by the author and the change in tone that can be observed.
At the beginning of the text we can see that the author used an indignant tone to present his ideas. This is because he shows and criticizes the way in which the history of blacks was erased, his contributions to America were disregarded and how it served to dehumanize blacks and affirm concepts that devalue them and make them expendable to society.
However, the author presents a tone of satisfaction, when he shows that after struggles, the history of blacks is being rescued and built in a strong and efficient way. In addition, he presents how blacks are managing not only to show, but to prove their importance, even in the midst of so much prejudice that still exists.
The two adjectives to describe the tone of Henry Louis Gates Jr.'s "Restoring Black History" include "outraged" and "satisfied".
It can be inferred that from the beginning of the text, the tone of the author was outraged because he was angry and criticized the way that the blacks were treated, which thereby dehumanize and devalued the blacks.On the other hand, the tone of satisfaction, was used when the blacks were being valued and their impact were felt in different sectors in the society. It simply showed that after the struggles faced by the blacks, they were eventually valued which led to the satisfaction of the author.In conclusion, the correct options are outraged and satisfied.

What Wollstonecraft sees as the rationale guiding the education of women in her society. What harm does she think results from this view of education?
Answer:
For Wollstonecraft, the justification that guides the education of women in their society is the desire of great educational and political theorists to leave women inferior and intellectually infantilized in relation to men. She believed that the biggest problem with this view was that it undermined the moral foundations of society and did not give equal rights and freedoms to all citizens.
Explanation:
Wollstonecraft grew up in a society where women were unmotivated and often forbidden to receive quality education. The politicians and great intellectuals of the time claimed the most diverse absurdities to justify the reason why women could not receive the same type of education as men. For Wollstonecraft, however, these justifications were used only to make women inferior to men and infantilized, unable to achieve full intellectual knowledge and reasoning and to make them dependent on men in all aspects of their lives.
Wollstonecraft believed that this was highly harmful to society, because in addition to wasting brilliant women who could cause improvements in all scientific, economic and social fields, it hurt the moral principles of society, did not provide equality and freedom to any and all citizens, on the contrary, it allowed a group of society, women, to become captive and totally dependent and inferior.
The following question is based on your reading of 1984 by George Orwell. What is the Mini Luv and what is ironic about its name?
Answer:
Mini Luv is the new name for the Minister of Love.
The name is ironic because their actions differ greatly from their title.
Explanation:
"1984" by George Orwell was written to narrate the suffering, intimidation and oppression happening in a place called Oceania, which is the area or division that is responsible for ensuring that the people obey the rules of the Minister of Love (alias Mini Luv).
People that are not loyal to the MIni Luv were severely beaten and tortured until they confessed to see the light and obey the Party and Big Brother which is the opposite of what the Minister of Love should stand for.
Read this excerpt from the passage. "Yes, you have been cruelly frank with me;..." How do the words cruelly frank best affect the meaning of this passage? They show that Mercédès has been excessively mean to Fernand in withholding her affection. They show that Fernand is very angry with Mercédès. They show that Fernand doesn't understand the truth about how Mercédès feels about him. They show that Mercédès is too honest with Fernand.
Answer: I really don't have an answer on this but maybe you can look at what I think and this will maybe help you decide on your answer.Sorry to disappoint :(
Explanation:
There wasn't a lot of background story to go back off but...
Fernand seems like he/she are trying to tell Mercédès that he/she has been rude/mean to Fernand. For ,"They show that Mercédès has been excessively mean to Fernand in withholding her affection." because Fernand might have affection for Mercédès .(possibly an answer)
For, "They show that Fernand is very angry with Mercédès." because maybe Fernand really has no affection for Mercédès. They already mentioned that Fernand feels like Mercédès is being rude to him/her so they really wouldn't have to mention that again but it can possibly be an easy answer to your question.. (least likely an answer)
For,"They show that Fernand doesn't understand the truth about how Mercédès feels about him." because Mercédès really might not know that he is being rude/mean to Fernand.
For,"They show that Mercédès is too honest with Fernand." because maybe Fernand is just sensitive and Fernand can't take Mercédès rude/mean words.
My opinion is NOT BASED OFF BACKSTORY
