Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by
Dean Kamen.
Which statement from the excerpt expresses an opinion
rather than a fact?
My next challenge was that I wanted to make things out
of metal, so I became interested in how to use a lathe, a
milling machine, and so on. I went to buy this new
equipment I thought I'd need and met a man who had a
machine shop of his own who was about to retire and
move to Florida. He allowed me to visit him after school
and on weekends to observe how he used all his tools. I
was hooked. When he retired I bought not only all his big
equipment but all his little toolboxes as well--they were
treasures!
O a man who had a machine shop of his own...
He allowed me to visit him after school and on
weekends
When he retired I bought not only all his big
equipment.
0 his little tool boxes as well they were treasures!
The correct answer is "his little tool boxes as well- they were treasures!"
Explanation:
An opinion and a fact are different because opinions express personal perceptions about the world. Due to this, opinions might include words such as amazing, boring, incredible, etc. that express personal perceptions. On the other hand, facts describe reality including real events, people, places, etc.
In the excerpt presented, one of the statements that is an opinion is "his little tool boxes as well- they were treasures!" because the idea the narrator considers the tool boxes and equipment as treasures is a personal perception rather than a global general fact. This is also showed through the use of the word "treasures" that is subjective.
Answer:Kamen supports his opinion that making things out of metal was enyoyable because he uses the following expressions:
" I became interested in ........a lathe, a milling machine....". He shows his positive attitude towards different tools. Tools that are used to make things out of metal.
" I was hooked." This means that the writer's attention had been caught. The owner of a machine shop had invited him to vistit his shop at any time and this offer really tempted the writer.
" I bought not only all his big equipment but all his little toolboxes as well " Kamen is describing with enthusiasm his decision. He liked machines so much he had decided to buy them all. He had bought big and small things. He describes this enthusiatically when he uses the words in bold type.
"they were treasures!" Kamen makes a conclusion and he calls all the things treasures. All the things were the things from the machine shop and they were extremely valuable for him.

Read the topic sentence from Asher's analysis of Enrique's Journey.
To demonstrate Enrique's intelligence and resourcefulness, Nazario depicts his response to the challenges of interacting with local people in Oaxaca.
Which sentences from the biography best support Asher's analysis? Select two options.
Answer:
D and E
D. "He stops at a barbershop. His hair is curly and far too long. It is an easy tip-off. People here tend to have straighter hair."
E. "'¡Órale, jefe!' he says, using a phrase Oaxacans favor. 'Hey, chief!' He mutes his flat Central American accent and speaks softly and singsongy, like an Oaxacan."
Explanation:
The above excerpt shows how difficult it was to interact with the local population in Oaxaca, especially when an individual, like Enrique, was very different from the natives and seemed to have an exotic experience for them, which highlighted him and did not allow him to fit in. Knowing this and needing to interact and fit in with the population, Enrique, through his intelligence and resourcefulness, realized that it would be positive if he cut his big curly hair, to look more like the local population and to be so out of place among the natives, who used to have straight and shorter hair.

The answers are D and E

A 1500-kg automobile is travelling at a velocity of 120m/s. How much kinetic energy does it possess?
Answer:
The kinetic energy is [tex]10.8MJ[/tex] or [tex]108 * 10^{5} Joules[/tex]
Explanation:
Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.
Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;
[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}[/tex]
Where, K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.
M represents mass measured in kilograms.
V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.
Given the following data;
Mass of automobile = 1,500kg
Velocity = 120
[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}[/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}*1500*120^{2}[/tex]
[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}*1500*14400[/tex]
[tex] K.E = 750*14400[/tex]
K.E = 10,800000 Joules or 10.8MJ
Note: MJ is Megajoule
Therefore, the kinetic energy possessed by the automobile is [tex]10.8MJ[/tex] or [tex]108 * 10^{5} Joules[/tex]

One reason for this anxiety is that students are rarely taught to evaluate them own work They have no criterion for evaluation their own performance Instead they felt prey to the whims of chance good or bad marks just happen or depend on luck such as what lecturer they have or reflect their level of natural cleverness This can leave students falling disempowered or a drift even if their marks are good Students can feel very vulnerable and may worry about sudden being exposed as stupid Anxious may create a vicious cycle such students can not settle down to study can not focus attention can not take on what they read or can not remember which they learnt and this reinforces their suspicion that really they lacks intelligence This is very common so it is important to look on what we mean by intelligence
There are 10 errors in the text can anybody tell me what's the errors
Answer:
The ten errors are the one with (*):
One reason for this anxiety is that students are rarely taught to evaluate *their* own work. They have no criterion for *evaluating* their own performance. Instead, they *fell* prey to the whims of chance good or bad marks just happen or depend on luck such as what lecturer they have or *reflect* their level of natural cleverness. This can leave students falling disempowered or *drifted* even if their marks are good. Students can feel very vulnerable and may worry about *suddenly* being exposed as stupid. *Anxiety* may create a vicious cycle such students can not settle down to study can not focus attention can not take *in* what they read or can not remember *what* they learnt and this reinforces their suspicion that really they *lack* intelligence. This is very common so it is important to look on what we mean by intelligence.
Explanation:
1.- Them should be changed for their going from the object pronoun to the possessive adjective.
2.- evaluations changes for evaluating going from the noun to the verb
3.- felt changes to fell felt is for emotions and felt is to become the prey.
4.- The word reflect can be deleted to present two noun phrases as options.
5.- drift changes to drifted to keep cohesion with the previous adjective in the sentence
6.- sudden changes to suddenly going from the adjective to the adverb.
7.- Anxious goes to anxiety from the adjective to the noun.
8.- on goes to in, the use of a different particle gives the idea of absorption of knowledge.
9.- which goes to what to keep a cohesive structure with the previous sentences
10.- lacks goes to lack since it is not a third person and it has to be conjugated differently.

While walking home from work, Lake Park Mall security guard Scott Thornton thought about his day. A shoplifter had outrun him, he had lost the keys to his golf cart, and a group of skateboarders had made fun of his weight. Things had not gone so well. Scott was so deep in thought that he did not even notice that he had stumbled on a movie set. Lost in thought, he passed by trailers, cameras, and stagehands, yet he was unaware of the scene around him. When he came out of his daze, he looked up and saw a ski mask wearing man waving a knife at an old lady. Figuring that the masked man was robbing the old woman, Scott bolted into action. His adrenaline was flowing. He didn't even notice the cameraman filming him as he jump kicked the actor wearing the ski mask.
Which type of irony is used? Explain your answer and describe the effect the author achieves with its use, for example, humor, suspense, tension, revelation of character, among many other possibilities.
Answer:
Situational irony.
Explanation:
Situational irony is a literary device used when the author wants the readers to expect something but ends with the opposite. Here, the author uses Scout's situation to derive the irony in the passage.
Scout who had a bad day at work stumbled across a movie set while returning home in a deep thought. The author used that situation to derive the irony by making Scout jump into the movie scene trying to help the actor who was in distress. Ironically, it was all a scene in the movie and Scout wasn't aware of it.
The author also used humor by mentioning that the shoplifter outran Scout. This is because Scout was a security guard and it was his duty to apprehend the shoplifter but he couldn't do that too.
