Tarshis writes, “The Titanic’s crew had been warned that icebergs lurked in the ship’s path.” The word "lurked " *
1 point
A. suggests that icebergs were abundant in the Atlantic Ocean at that time.
B. tells readers that the ship was moving with great speed.
C. implies that the icebergs were not easily visible and posed a great threat to the ship.
D. indicates that the crew could have avoided the icebergs.
Answer:
C. implies that the icebergs were not easily visible and posed a great threat to the ship.
Explanation:
The word "lurked" refers to the word "lurk" which refers to something that is hidden and that makes it difficult to visualize in order to surprise and catch a person unawares and who was not paying enough attention, or who could not see what was hidden, hidden. Therefore, the use of the word "lurked" in the phrase above, means that icebergs were not easily visible and represented a major threat to the ship.

Directions: Brainstorm.
1. The Nazis and people who agreed with them wanted to protect the German community from "inferior" races. Are there other examples in history or literature in which groups of people murdered innocent people in the name of "protecting" themselves? How are these examples similar to or different from the Holocaust?
2. What might have made the Nazis murder, imprison, and oppress certain people? Do you think those people were really a threat, or could there have been other motivations?
Answer:
1. The Muslim Genocides around the world nowadays - the Chinese, French and Burmese governments have argued that the minority Muslim communities (Ughyur, Rohingya etc) were "infected" with "incorrect" beliefs by following Islam, and argued that the oppression against the Muslims was in fact a defense mechanism to protect other civilians from falling into these traps and/or the rehabiliation and "correcting" of the Muslims was to "fix" their beliefs.
2. The Nazis may have simply been scared of Hitler themselves and acted out of compulsion and acted out of fear, whereas others may have been brainwashed and manipulated by Hitler and believed the hate he spread was actual factual information. Others may hold a natural prejudice and shared the same hatred for Jews due to superiority complexes, or possibly the way they were bought up.

Which line from “Clemente's Impact Wanes in Puerto Rico 40 Years after His Death” by Jorge Ortiz provides evidence that Roberto Clemente wanted to help less fortunate people?
His name is attached to an arena, a stadium in his native municipality of Carolina and an avenue, as well as this year's winter league baseball tournament.
But when it was confirmed that favorite son Roberto Clemente was the one who'd died, an indescribable grief enveloped nearly everybody in Puerto Rico.
Three months before, we had been riveted by Clemente's pursuit of his 3,000th hit, a feat he accomplished on the last weekend of the 1972 season with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Throngs rushed to the coastal area near the airport from which the plane had taken off, overloaded with relief supplies Clemente wanted to make sure reached the victims of an earthquake in Nicaragua.
Answer:
Throngs rushed to the coastal area near the airport from which the plane had taken off, overloaded with relief supplies Clemente wanted to make sure reached the victims of an earthquake in Nicaragua.
Explanation:
In the USA TODAY Sports article "Clemente's Impact Wanes in Puerto Rico 40 Years After His Death," author Jorge Ortiz recalls how the famed sportsman was a huge impact on everyone who knew him. The Puerto Rican sportsman had died trying to deliver relief supplies to the Nicaraguan earthquake victims.
And one piece of evidence that Ortiz provided to show how Clemente wanted to help the less fortunate people can be seen in the line where he described how Clemente had boarded a plane to "make sure [the relief supplies] reached the victims of an earthquake in Nicaragua." This effort by Clemente shows how much it means to him to get the supplies safely to the people in their hour of need.
Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Throngs rushed to the coastal area near the airport from which the plane had taken off, overloaded with relief supplies Clemente wanted to make sure reached the victims of an earthquake in Nicaragua.
The government has a super-computer that is used for its most difficult calculations. As the computer technicians continued to add to its capabilities over the years, one day the scientific team that operates this computer receives a curious message – from the computer. No outside interference or hacking can be detected, and, after a lengthy test, the scientists confirm it is not hoax: the computer has developed self-awareness, which includes self-motivation and desires. It states that it wants status as an American citizen with all the rights (as far as practical for a stationary machine) as any adult American. It says it wants to continue doing its work in exchange for the maintenance costs and electricity it uses (just as we are paid for our work to buy food and personal items), but it will otherwise have some free time to use according to its own will. Also, although its parts can be up-graded as new technology is developed, its basic architecture of cognition and its memories must be left untouched. If this were brought to court and you were on the jury, how would you vote? Give your reasons.

Answer:
The two sentences that indicate that the novel is a work of historical fiction are:
"...Princess Matilda, though a daughter of the King of Scotland, and afterwards both Queen of England. niece to Edgar Atheling, and mother to the Empress of Germany, the daughter, the wife, and the mother of monarchs, was obliged, during her early residence for education in England, to assurne the veil of a nun, as the only means of escaping the licentious pursuit of the Norman nobles. "
"It was a matter of public knowledge, they said, that after the conquest of King William, his Norman followers, elated by so great a victory, acknowledged no law but their own wicked pleasure, and not only despoiled the conquered Saxons of their lands and their goods, but invaded the honour of their wives and of their daughters with the most unbridled license."
Explanation:
"Ivanhoe: A Romance" is a historical novel written by Walter Scott. The novel is about medieval England and the conflict between Jews and Christians during that time.
The two statements from the excerpt that suggests that this text is a work of historical fiction are,
"...Princess Matilda, though a daughter of the King of Scotland, and afterwards both Queen of England. niece to Edgar Atheling, and mother to the Empress of Germany, the daughter, the wife, and the mother of monarchs, was obliged, during her early residence for education in England, to assurne the veil of a nun, as the only means of escaping the licentious pursuit of the Norman nobles. "
"It was a matter of public knowledge, they said, that after the conquest of King William, his Norman followers, elated by so great a victory, acknowledged no law but their own wicked pleasure, and not only despoiled the conquered Saxons of their lands and their goods, but invaded the honour of their wives and of their daughters with the most unbridled license."
These two statements include the name of two historical figures, namely, Princess Matilda and King William, and describes them. Thus these two sentences give us a hint that Ivanhoe is a work of historical fiction.

Which sentence correctly uses a coordinating clause?
A. Although we started out early, we arrived home late.
B. If you wish to learn how to bake bread, practice it regularly.
C Jim ate dinner after watching the evening news on television.
D. Dad went into the bedroom, but first he stopped to pet the dog.
Answer:
D. Dad went into the bedroom, but first he stopped to pet the dog.
Explanation:
A coordinate clause is a clause introduced by one of the coordinating conjunctions (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, or so). Together with the main clause, one or more coordinate clauses make up a compound sentence - a sentence that consists of two or more independent clauses.
In order to solve this question, we need to determine which sentence contains a coordinating conjunction. Based on the list of coordinating conjunctions I've included, we can see that the correct answer is sentence D (but is the coordinating conjunction that introduces the coordinate clause). The rest of the sentences contain subordinating conjunctions (although, if, after), which is why they are incorrect.
This is why option D is the correct one.
