Answer:
Explanation:In contrast to polygamy, monogamy is marriage consisting of only two parties. Like "monogamy", the term "polygamy" is often used in a de facto sense, applied regardless of whether a state recognizes the relationship.[n 1] In sociobiology and zoology, researchers use polygamy in a broad sense to mean any form of multiple mating.
Worldwide, different societies variously encourage, accept or outlaw polygamy. In societies which allow or tolerate polygamy, in the vast majority of cases the form accepted is polygyny. According to the Ethnographic Atlas Codebook (1998), of 1,231 societies noted, 588 had frequent polygyny, 453 had occasional polygyny, 186 were monogamous and 4 had polyandry[5] - although more recent research suggests that polyandry may occur more commonly than previously thought.[6] In cultures which practice polygamy, its prevalence among that population often correlates with class and socioeconomic status.[7]
From a legal point of view, in many countries, although the law only recognises monogamous marriages (a person can only have one spouse, and bigamy is illegal), adultery is not illegal, leading to a situation of de facto polygamy being allowed, although without legal recognition for non-official "spouses".
Scientific studies classify the human mating system as primarily monogamous, with the cultural practice of polygamy in the minority, based both on surveys of world populations,[8][9] and on characteristics of human reproductive

3) As used in paragraph 2, which is the best antonym for complex?
A. impressive
B. beautiful
C. exciting
D. simple
Answer:
D. simple
Explanation:
As used in paragraph 2, the best antonym for complex is simple.
Complex is known to be a system of different things which are linked or connected in a close or complicated way. Antonym means the opposite of something. So, the opposite of complex as used in paragraph 2 is "simple".
From the passage, the narrator further explained why he said the Ferris Wheel is complex. He revealed that the way the wheel works is complicated. So, the antonym is simple. Option D is correct answer.
Which statement best describes how the use of allusion supports the
meaning of the passage?
Liam's white kitten lay curled up on the sofa like a snowball. The
kitten's white fur had earned her the name Frosty the Snowman, but
her feisty personality suggested that perhaps "Stormy might be more
appropriate. In just a few days, Frosty had pulled down the curtains in
Liam's bedroom, knocked a vase off the bookshelf, and sent the family
dog into hiding. The kitten was a mini-tornado. The white ball of fur
pounced and hissed commandingly, just as a sudden storm shows its
power with thunder and lightning.
O A. The allusion to Frosty the Snowman implies a fun and good-
natured kitten, which contrasts with reality
O B. The allusion to a snowball suggests that the kitten's crazy ways
will not last long since snow melts quickly.
C. The allusion to a snowball indicates that the kitten earned her
name because she has a cold disposition.
D. The allusion to Frosty the Snowman proves that the kitten was
named to honor Liam's favorite season: winter
Answer: A. The allusion to Frosty the snowman implies a fun and good natured kitten, which contrasts with reality.

what are the limitations of having nick serve as the narrator of this story? How does chapter 2 make this limitation obvious?
Answer:
The limitations of having Nick as a narrator is that the readers are not able to know the thoughts of other characters. In First-person narrative, readers get to know only what narrator knows and what he sees and perceives about the event.
The evidence of this limitation in chapter is apparent when Nick gets drunk and he himself claims that his drunkness has a dim hazy cast over it.
Explanation:
The Great Gatsby is a novel written by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The novel is about Jay Gatsby and is narrated by Nick Carraway.
The story is narrated from First-person point of view. The limitation of having Nick as a narrator is that readers are not able to perceive the thoughts of other characters, especially that of Jay Gatsby. The readers get to know only what limited view of Nick narrated to them. They are able to see only what Nick sees and nothing beyond it or other's viewpoint. It is the viewpoint of Nick that moulds the story of Gatsby.
This limitation is apparent in Chapter 2 of the novel when Nick gets drunk at the party and himself admits that his drunkness has a dim hazy cast over it. This suggests that Nick was not able to trust his own narration of this particular event after he got intoxicated.

How does the Author convey the theme of identity for “Music for my mother”?
Answer:
The author conveyed the theme of identity when he showed how the family who were originally Spaniards adjusted to life in the United States of America.
Explanation:
The theme of identity conveys the thought of who a person is and how he efficiently thrives in the environment he finds himself in. For the Spanish family in the story, the mother struggled to relinquish her native Spanish identity for the American one. This is why she still preferred her songs in Spanish and would rather communicate with her husband in their native language.
The boys and their father on the other hand made conscious efforts to adjust to the new life in America. They learned the language, adjusted their sense of dressing, and learned to live in a fast-paced environment. Even Pedrito changed his name to Peter. The family could adequately identify as U.S citizens as they built their career, and had their families there.

3. Key Ideas and Details: How does the author connect his statement that America
should tell other countries to behave mercifully with the list of American
corporations with branches in Singapore?
2018 College Board. All rights reserved.
Answer and Explanation:
The author shows how American companies have a strong influence on the economy of Singapore, as in other countries and that because of this influence, the American government can impose that not only Singapore, but that all countries have better attitudes, otherwise these companies can be withdrawn from these countries, which would cause certain economic problems.
In other words, the author states that the USA cannot impose American values in foreign territories, but it can cause these values to be met using the influence it has economically in those territories, through the list of American companies that the foreign country has.
