2. The athlete seemed ready and fully_______ to take on his opponent.

A) poised

B) pompous

C) crestfallen

D) monotonous

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Poised

Explanation:

Pompous denotes that he was arrogant, which is not the purpose here.

Crestfallen means he was sad

Monotonous does not make sense.

So, the answer is poised, meaning he was focused and excited to face the opponent

Some have referred to Noah as a driving prodigy because of the racing skills he demonstrated at such an early age. But he does not rely on his natural abilities to help him succeed. He works out to be in top physical condition. He also races and practices weekly to continue improving as a driver. Noah completes his courses online so that he can take his schooling on the road when he travels for races. He is not the only one who has sacrificed to pursue his dream of being a NASCAR racecar driver someday. Family members accompany him for the competitions that take place throughout the country, and his family relocated to central Florida to be closer to racetracks that are open year round for practice and competition. All of his hard work is paying off as he is invited to compete in races throughout the country.

In paragraph 3, we learn that Noah needs the help of others to be able to pursue his dreams. Which sentence in the paragraph communicates this fact implicitly?

A. Noah completes his courses online so that he can take his schooling on the road when he travels for races.
B. His family also relocated to central Florida to be closer to racetracks that are open year round for practice and competition.

Hello, today i will be talking about why practice is important. Firstly, you need to practice so you can start to get the hang of things, for example, perhaps you had a volleyball match coming up, you need to practice for it so you can get better at your receives or sets. Secondly, Practice is the act of rehearsing a behavior over and over, or engaging in an activity again and again, for the purpose of improving or mastering it, as in the phrase "practice makes perfect". Lastly, if you don't practice you could fail at whatever you are trying to do because your body or mind hasn't gotten used to the thing your trying to do yet. In conclusion, you need practice so that way you can get better at what your trying to do and so your body or mind can adjust to it and keep getting better at it.

Read this excerpt from the article "Clemente's Impact Wanes in Puerto Rico 40 Years after His Death."
In the days that followed, as Clemente's death was accepted as reality, a photo of his 7-year-old son Roberto Jr. kissing a poster with his father's picture became as heart-wrenching and iconic in Puerto Rico as the image of JFK Jr. saluting his father's coffin was in the U.S.

Which is the best source to use to enhance the information in this excerpt?
A) a magazine article about JFK Jr.
B) a copy of the image of Clemente’s son
C) a website describing Puerto Rican photographers
D) an almanac entry about Clemente’s baseball career

Answers

Answer:

I would say B

Explanation:

As we can see A and D do not make sense with the authors purpose of this article, it doesn't make sense to describe one person with evidence and not the other. Photographers are great, but C doesn't relate to the text. The texts main focus is on Clementes son and how he reacted to his fathers death!

Hope this sort of helped!

Therefore, B is most reasonable.

Which choice BEST states what the author means by "lying just opens a Pandora's box"? Read the clue card. Then click the read it buttton and reread the highlighted text

Answers

Answer:

B- Lying creates even worse problems.

Explanation:

In ancient Greek mythology, the myth surrounding Pandora pertains more to human behavior. This expression is generally used to talk about a gift that is more harmful and unwanted than valuable.

The phrase "to open Pandora's box" refers to something that brings more destruction and pain. So, when the author says "lying just opens a Pandora's box", then that means lying creates even worse problems.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

In December of 1956, the Supreme Court ended the bus boycott by ruling that
Alabama’s segregation laws were unconstitutional.
Montgomery’s segregation laws were constitutional.
public schools should be integrated as quickly as possible.
the military should be integrated as quickly as possible.

Answers

Answer:

Alabama’s segregation laws were unconstitutional.

Explanation:

The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America states that everyone has the right to equal protection, privileges of the law irrespective of one's race or color. This means that even blacks have the same rights to ride or use public transport as whites.

So, the bus boycott that resulted because of a segregated seating for blacks was deemed rightful. The Supreme Court in its December 20, 1956, ruling states that all persons, irrespective of race or color, must be given the same treatment. The court ruled Alabama's segregation laws unconstitutional and resulted in the integration of Montgomery buses the next day.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

A: Alabama’s segregation laws were unconstitutional.

Explanation:

in the Fourteenth Amendment  the Constitution of the United States of America states that everyone has the right to equal protection privileges of the law irrespective of one's race or color. This means that everyone.

After reading that Gregor woke up transformed as vermin in the first
paragraph of The Metamorphosis, the reader feels a sense of:
O A. Foreshadowing
O B. Surprise
O C. Flashback
O D. Climax

Answers

Answer:

B. Surprise

Explanation:

I strongly believe the answer is surprise.

After reading that passage, I was surprised. This is also how any other reader will feel after reading the paragraph.

It is surprising to know that a human being can turn to a vermin over night. In fact, it raises questions. The metamorphosis of Gregor into a vermin makes a reader surprised and feel sorry for the poor man.

The answer here wouldn't have been climax because the question states that what sense of feeling does the reader after reading. Climax actually refer to the high point in a story before falling action takes place.

From your bed of love—

Pierce the leaden clouds
And come visit your heavenly birthplace

Bring gifts to the white town
The fruits and birds and flowers of paradise

The bell towers will bow down to you
And the streets prostrate themselves
