Answer:
Walton’s letters to his sister form a frame around the main narrative, Victor Frankenstein’s tragic story. Walton captains a North Pole–bound ship that gets trapped between sheets of ice. While waiting for the ice to thaw, he and his crew pick up Victor, weak and emaciated from his long chase after the monster. Victor recovers somewhat, tells Walton the story of his life, and then dies. Walton laments the death of a man with whom he felt a strong, meaningful friendship beginning to form.
Walton functions as the conduit through which the reader hears the story of Victor and his monster. However, he also plays a role that parallels Victor’s in many ways. Like Victor, Walton is an explorer, chasing after that “country of eternal light”—unpossessed knowledge. Victor’s influence on him is paradoxical: one moment he exhorts Walton’s almost-mutinous men to stay the path courageously, regardless of danger; the next, he serves as an abject example of the dangers of heedless scientific ambition. In his ultimate decision to terminate his treacherous pursuit, Walton serves as a foil (someone whose traits or actions contrast with, and thereby highlight, those of another character) to Victor, either not obsessive enough to risk almost-certain death or not courageous enough to allow his passion to drive him.

from The Beast
by Ben B. Lindsey and Harvey J. O’Higgins
Whom or what could best be defined as “the beast” from the title?
A.
juvenile delinquents
B.
citizens of Colorado who do not vote
C.
parents who allow children to roam the streets
D.
adult offenders who abuse juvenile offenders in prison
E.
politicians and affluent businessmen in Colorado who control government
Answer:
I never read 'The Beast', but I'd like to say that it is most likely D. adult offenders who abuse juvenile offenders in prison.
Explanation:
"Beasts" are usually something that is cruel and harsh, which adult offenders who abuse juvenile offenders can be seen that way, and that seems much worse compared to the other options. Yet, since I assume you have read the story, I do advise you to think a bit deeper on the question if D. does not seem logical compared to the story.
Answer:
D or E
Explanation:
I've read the Beast and both of these answers sound like they could be right, I need this answer too.

Annie´s parents seem to be sad and cheery at the same time and it could be said that she acts the same way; however, she may be relieved of her departure. At one point, her mother suggests she get married after going away; the idea that Annie refuses immediately.
What is her tone in the passage? whats words convey that attitude?
Answer:
Annie's tone in this passage is a stubborn one. The word that most conveys this tone is "refuses".
Explanation:
The tone of a text or a character, refers to the ability of the text or character to convey a type of emotion. In the case of the above excerpt, Annie is obstinate with her mother's suggestion that she marry. Annie does not wish to marry and therefore declines the proposal immediately. This conveys a feeling of obstinacy, stubbornness and firmness, which is the tone that Annie conveys to the reader.
How does the narrator’s hearing affect the story?
Answer:
A narrator's hearing affect's the story because it changes the way the story is viewed. If a narrator does not like something, does not care about something, or is over-enthusiastic over a certain topic, this may change the mood of the story drastically, whereas a non-biased narrator makes the story easier to understand, and questions are less likely to be asked. Narrators often announce their point of view on a situation, and do not describe it as it may be viewed by another person.

Read this excerpt from A Night to Remember.
One after another they now dropped rapidly into the sea: No. 6 at 12:55 . . . No. 3 at 1:00 . . . No. 8 at 1:10.
What idea does this excerpt support?
A. a lack of organization
B. a need for leadership
C. a sense of urgency
D. a feeling of loss
Answer:
I would say C. a sense of urgency.
Explanation:
Due to the use of "rapidly", and "one after another", it makes me feel as though everything is happening at a quick pace and is, thus, urgent. There is no form of what organization should be, so it is hard to judge based on organization. As for leadership, there is no speaking of such a thing in the excerpt. And, yes, there seems to be loss, but there is no feeling really created in the except since it happens all so quickly.
Answer:
C is correct.
Explanation:
I got it right on my practice test :D
Thou therefore take my brand Excalibur,
Which was my pride: for thou rememberest how
In those old days, one summer noon, an arm
Rose up from out the bosom of the lake,
Clothed in white samite, mystic, wonderful,
Holding the sword—and how I row’d across
And took it, and have worn it, like a king:
And, wheresoever I am sung or told
In aftertime, this also shall be known
–"Morte d’Arthur,”
Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Which phrase contains a metaphor? A
Which phrase contains a simile? C
Answer:
... take my brand Excalibur, which was my pride ...
... have worn it, like a king ...
Explanation:
Both metaphor and simile are literary devices used to compare two things. However, there is a difference. A simile is a more direct comparison. It uses words like and as, while metaphor omits these words. It usually involves saying that something is something else.
In the given excerpt, a metaphor can be found in the phrase ... take my brand Excalibur, which was my pride...
A simile is found in the phrase ... have worn it, like a king...
Answer: A&C
A- “take my brand Excalibur, / Which was my pride”
C- "and have worn it, like a king”

Answer:
1. In Stanza 7, "gun" and "boots" symbolise the author's job.
2. The rhyme scheme in Stanza 8 is ABACDCDC.
3. The author uses complete rhymes in Stanza 9. The words are "day" and "OK".
4. Stanza 10 is meant to give reassurance to the author's family. The mood of this stanza is subtle and calm.
5. Stanza 11 is a repeat of Stanzas 4 & 8. In poetry, this is called a refrain.
Explanation:
1. By following in someone's shoes, it can be inferred that the author might have followed after his father's job or legacy.
2. "down" rhymes with "town". "soul" rhymes with "go". "go" rhymes with "home". The rest do not rhyme so I just put a different alphabet.
3. Complete rhymes have the same final consonants sounds while partial rhymes don't. The ending consonants, in this case, were the "ay" sound. You can try reading it out loud to hear the rhyme :)
4. "Just remember this" shows that the author wants their parents to not worry about anything else except that he is in "a better place". "I'm in a better place" suggests that the author is reporting that he is in a better environment and "peace" and "Amazing Grace" also meant that he is reassuring his parents about himself.
5. A refrain is a line, phrase or group of lines that are repeated throughout the poem to show emphasis.

Question 1
Reread the following passage from "Letter to a Citizen of Kentucky":
"I understood, too, that in ordinary civil administration →this oath even forbade me← to practically indulge my primary abstract judgment on the moral question of slavery. I had publicly declared this many times and in many ways; and I aver that, to this day I have done no official act in mere deference to my abstract judgment and feeling on slavery. I did understand, however, that my oath to preserve the Constitution to the best of my ability imposed upon me the duty of preserving, by every indispensable means, that government, that nation, of which that Constitution was the organic law. Was it possible to lose the nation, and yet preserve the Constitution?"
Use context to determine the meaning of the words in bold.
a) This story even delighted me
b) This decision even allowed me
c) This promise even prevented me
Question 2
"When, early in the war, General Fremont attempted military emancipation, I forbade it, because I did not then think it an →indispensable necessity.← When, a little later, General Cameron, then Secretary of War, suggested the arming of the blacks, I objected, because I did not yet think it an indispensable necessity. When, still later, General Hunter attempted military emancipation, I forbade it, because I did not yet think the indispensable necessity had come. When, in March and May and July, 1862, I made earnest and successive appeals to the Border States to favor compensated emancipation, I believed the indispensable necessity for military emancipation and arming the blacks would come, unless averted by that measure. They declined the proposition; and I was, in my best judgment, driven to the alternative of either surrendering the Union, and with it the Constitution, or of laying strong hand upon the colored element. I chose the latter. In choosing it, I hoped for greater gain than loss; but of this I was not entirely confident..."
Use context to determine the meaning of the words in bold.
a) Mutual agreement
b) Significant other
c) Worthwhile pastime
Question 3
Reread the following passage from "Letter to a Citizen of Kentucky":
"By general law, life and limb must be protected; yet often a limb must be amputated to save a life, but a life is never wisely given to save a limb. I felt that measures, otherwise unconstitutional, might become lawful by becoming indispensable to the preservation of the Constitution through the preservation of the nation. Right or wrong, I assumed this ground, and now avow it. I could not feel that to the best of my ability I had even tried to preserve the Constitution, if, to save slavery, or any minor matter, I should permit the wreck of government, country, and Constitution altogether."
How can the text often a limb must be amputated to save a life, but a life is never wisely given to save a limb best be interpreted?
a) If you cut off one bad part, you run the risk of killing the entire body.
b) It is often necessary to let an entire body die rather than cutting off a limb.
c) It is often necessary to get rid of one bad part to save the larger whole.
Answer:
For question one, the answer should be c) This promise even prevented me. This is due to the use of "forbade", which means "prevented", along with the use of "oath", which is like a promise.
As for the second question, I know for sure that it is not b), Significant other, since there is no talking of a partner. I would say probably c) Worthwhile pastime. Yet, a) may be correct? I'm not completely sure since indispensable necessity means a necessity that is absolutely necessary. Then, mutual agreement means a contract between two entities that kind of ties them together. Try replacing 'indispensable necessity' with 'mutual agreement' and 'meanwhile pastime'. Yet, due to how the first sentence is worded, it makes me more so lean towards mutual agreement, in a way.
I'm sorry, I tried my best, all I know is that it isn't b).
For question three, I'd go with c) It is often necessary to get rid of one bad part to save the larger whole. This is because it says how an amputation can save a life, and the life is never wisely just given to a limp, so c) seems like the best option.
Hope this helped.
Read the article below carefully and answer the question that follows.
On the morning of July 15, 2006, fourteen school buses were vandalized. The buses, property of Walt Whitman Middle School, were parked in the "bus barn" on campus. The vandals spray-painted the buses with pictures of dogs. Dogs happen to be the mascot of rival school Edgar Allan Poe Academy. This has led some to believe that some students from EAPA may be the culprits in the incident. Says the mother of one Walt Whitman student, "Oh, yeah, the [Edgar Allan] Poe [Academy] kids are definitely responsible. Those kids don't have any discipline, and they're still stewing over the loss of last week's football game." Police, however, say that they currently have no suspects.

False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The statement that Majed was six years old when his family moved to Jeddah is false.
In the first sentence of the passage, we are told that Majed was born in Jeddah (Majed Abdullah was born in Jeddah on...). In the second sentence, we are told that, when he was six years old, his family moved to Riyadh (When he was six, his father got a job as a coach of the Al- Nassr youth team and the family moved to Riyadh). If the statement contained information about his family moving to Riyadh, it would've been correct.
