Please i’m begging y’all to help me, the questions are in the picture and the passage is down below.

The Three Brothers was soon under way, leaving the calm waters of the Bay and entering the Straits. They made good progress as they sailed west, close to the Spanish coast. To their right were the narrow beaches of the Spanish coastline, its shrubs and grassland burnt brown after a long summer. They were close enough to shore to make out some herds of goats grazing on the steep slopes, and to see that they were themselves the subject of scrutiny by two ragged young goatherds. Bresciano concentrated on the choppy sea in which appeared the sleek shapes of dolphins. They kept pace with the boat, leaping out into the air to dive deep. They turned and twisted and were an exhilarating escort that eventually tired of its sport and turned aside in search of shoals of mackerel. Bresciano’s thoughts turned to what lay ahead.
If only I knew a little more Arabic, he thought, I could have gone further into Morocco. That’s the sort of adventure I need – to get away from the drudgery of the office! Then he reminded himself of his serious business in Tangier. His sister Lucia had to be protected from this rogue who was pursuing her and she and Aunt Maria had to be returned safely to Gibraltar. Then there was his father: he was too ill to keep the business going in Gibraltar without his son’s help.
He sighed. When would he have another opportunity like this one? To travel into the heart of Morocco, that wild and enigmatical land! Oh, well, he would have to make do with Tangier.
As the boat veered south, across the narrow straits towards Tangier, the weather changed and the sea became choppier. Bresciano was not much troubled by this; he buttoned his jacket, pulled up his collar and prepared to endure. The many fishing expeditions he had shared with his father as a boy had accustomed him to the rough waters of the Straits, but the motion of the boat was affecting Lempriere.
‘How long will we have to endure this?’ Lempriere muttered. ‘I have never been able to enjoy ship travel. To think that I thought of becoming a sailor when I was a boy!’
Trying to reassure him, Bresciano engaged him in conversation. They talked about Lempriere’s childhood on the island of Jersey, and Bresciano’s experiences in the Great Siege of Gibraltar. This reminded Bresciano of Abraham: ‘I have a friend who is in Tangier at the moment. I shall visit him when I arrive,’ he said.
The sea remained rough and a slight drizzle set in. Eventually their conversation petered out as Lempriere concentrated on trying to subdue his heaving stomach. The captain cheerfully informed them that his little vessel was unsinkable; they would arrive within a couple of hours.
They rounded a headland and Tangier came into sight. The few passengers crowded the port side of the boat to get their first glimpse of the town ahead of them. It lay behind crumbling defensive fortifications – a small walled town set on a slight hill. They glimpsed a few houses behind the walls, buildings with pitched roofs. Above the town rose the ruin of an old castle, and before it was a shallow bay.
Bresciano was a little disappointed: it looked to be a place housing something like two thousand people. It seemed to him to be a very small town.

Answer:

1. The shrubs and grassland.

It says in the passage the "To the right were the narrow beaches of the Spanish coastline, its shrubs and grassland burnt down after a long summer." This clearly shows that the summer has been hot as the plants and grasses have been burnt down.

2. Herds of goats, two ragged young goatherds.

Again, the passage says that they were close enough to shore to make out these two features.

3. They got tired

It says in the passage that the dolphins got "tired of its sport" and "turned aside"

4. This one you obviously have to do yourself, but here's an example of how I would put it.

i. He wanted to go further into Morocco to get an adventure

ii. His job (protecting his sister from a rouge), and earning money for the family in the place of his ill father

5. He was not troubled because he had gone on many fishing expeditions as a boy and was used to these rough sea conditions.

6. He wanted to become a sailor when he was a boy. Lempriere lived on the island of Jersey.

7. I don't see any italics. However, most of the time, authors use italics to highlight important ideas or express the main character's thoughts. For example it would be like: "The sea was very rough" or "That's the last supper we are going to get. She thought."

   1. exhilerating - exciting

   2. egnimatical - difficult to understand

   3. endure - last as in lasting during a difficult time

   4. petered out - faded out, became less as in they slowly stopped talking

ii. This again, you might want to do yourself. But here's how I would put it.

Read the excerpt from The Diary of Anne Frank.

MR. KRALER

That's the man. A couple of weeks ago, when I was in the storeroom, he closed the door and asked me . . . how's Mr. Frank? What do you hear from Mr. Frank? I told him I only knew there was a rumor that you were in Switzerland. He said he'd heard that rumor too, but he thought I might know something more. I didn't pay any attention to it . . . but then a thing happened yesterday . . . He'd brought some invoices to the office for me to sign. As I was going through them, I looked up. He was standing staring at the bookcase . . . your bookcase. He said he thought he remembered a door there . . . Wasn't there a door there that used to go up to the loft? Then he told me he wanted more money. Twenty guilders more a week.

What is a minor conflict in this excerpt?

The man in the storeroom wants more money to keep quiet about the location of Mr. Frank.
The man in the storeroom does not believe that he is being paid enough money for the work he is doing.

Which two sentences in this excerpt from "Civil Disobedience" by Henry David Thoreau support the transcendentalist idea that the
individual is more important than government or society?
This American government what is it but a tradition, though a recent one, endeavoring to transmit itself unimpaired to posterity, but
each instant losing some of its integrity? It has not the vitality and force of a single living man; for a single man can bend it to his will. It is
a sort of wooden gun to the people themselves..
But a government in which the majority rule in all cases cannot be based on justice, even as far as men understand it. Can there not be a
government in which majorities do not virtually decide right and wrong, but conscience? - in which majorities decide only those questions
to which the rule of expediency is applicable? Must the citizen ever for a moment, or in the least degree, resign his conscience to the
legislation? Why has every man a conscience, then? I think that we should be men first, and subjects afterward. It is not desirable to
cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right. The only obligation which I have a right to assume is to do at any time what I think
right. It is truly enough said that a corporation has no conscience; but a corporation of conscientious men is a corporation with a
conscience.

Read the excerpt from stanzas 3 and 4 of "The Turtle.”

It isn’t even hers but came to her
in the rain or the soft wind,
which is a gate through which her life keeps walking.

She can’t see
herself apart from the rest of the world
or the world from what she must do
every spring.
Crawling up the high hill,
luminous under the sand that has packed against her skin,
she doesn’t dream

Based on what is happening in this part of the poem, the repeated "s” sound most likely relates to

the natural flow of the turtle’s actions.
the turtle’s difficulty building a nest.
how the turtle views the seasons.
how the sand feels to the turtle.

Chinese Transnational Policing Gone Wild

110 Overseas ，The last decade has witnessed the rapid spread of telecom and online fraud globally, which seriously infringes on people's legitimate rights and interests, becoming a prominent crime and a public hazard. To address this problem, the Chinese police have been committed to intensifying their efforts in the combat against and control of such crimes, and strengthening international law enforcement cooperation, which has enabled them to accumulate successful experience, build up best practices and set examples for their counterparts around the world.

Upholding the people-centered principle, the Communist Party of China and the Chinese government have attached great importance to countering telecom and online fraud. Equal importance has been given to both combat and control. An efficient multi-department collaborative working mechanism has been established, and the Anti-telecom and Online Fraud Law has been formulated and enacted, which provides a strong legal foundation. Targeting the characteristics of such crimes, the Chinese police have conducted specialized study and research, set up specialized task forces, initiated specialized investigation against major cases and utilized specialized techniques.

The Chinese police have synchronized their efforts both internally and externally, and launched a series of campaigns and operations, effectively curbing the high momentum of these crimes, retrieving a large number of economic losses, and winning wide recognition from the public and the international community. During their international law enforcement engagements, the Chinese police frequently received requests from their counterparts to share their experience and effective practices in this field.

Telecom and online fraud is a typical transnational organized crime. Fraud dens are often located across countries and regions, targeting vulnerable individuals and groups regardless of their nationalities.

The Chinese police, through international law enforcement cooperation, have joined hands with their international counterparts to carry out operations and achieved significant results. Operation Great Wall, jointly launched with the Spanish police in 2019, has become a successful example of transnational law enforcement cooperation.

From March to June this year, China, together with 76 INTERPOL member states, jointly participated in the anti-fraud Operation First Light initiated by INTERPOL, which destroyed 1,770 fraud dens in as many countries, arrested over 2,000 suspects and intercepted more than US$50 million in illicit funds. It was also found that some Chinese citizens were involved in fraud activities abroad, and the majority of them were tempted by the promise of high payments, cheated and coerced into being smuggled abroad, and some of them were kidnapped and detained illegally, and a few of them were even beaten and abused to death in the criminal dens.

The Chinese police, together with relevant departments, have actively carried out rescue and education, and encouraged them to return home through international law enforcement cooperation, and made every effort to provide assistance and employment. The immigration authorities, in accordance with the provisions of the Exit and Entry Administration Law, have taken necessary measures such as restricting the exit of persons engaged in telecom and online fraud.

According to an officer with the Ministry of Public Security, the criminality of telecom and online fraud is characterized by its specialization, industrialization and being increasingly organized and transnational, amid the rapid development of global digitalization.

As an emerging new-type crime, it is a very difficult problem for governments of various countries to tackle and control, and thus it has become one of the major challenges facing police forces across the world. Joining hands in combating this newly developed fraud is the shared responsibility of the police of all countries and also the unanimous consensus of the international community.

Public security agencies across China are determined to earnestly enforce the Law of Anti-telecom and Online Fraud through strengthened cooperation with their international counterparts and reinforced domestic efforts in fighting the crime, so as to prevent it from further spreading, and to bringing the fraudsters at large to justice.

Read the passage from When Birds Get Flu by John DiConsiglio.

The two men were heading to the tiny village of Srisomboon. It was September 2004. An 11-year-old girl had fallen ill after playing with some sick chickens. At first, it seemed like a bad case of the flu. But the girl kept getting sicker.

In the hospital, her mother held her for hours. Then early in the morning, the girl died. Soon, her mother began to feel sick. The mother died, too.

Dr. Dowell is an epidemiologist. His job is to figure out what makes people sick—and to keep diseases from spreading to others. He feared that the little girl and her mother had died from a rare bird flu.

In this passage, the author mainly

A.) provides evidence.
B.) draws a conclusion.
C.) introduces a question.
D.) supplements the story.
