What did Galarza think of and learn from his experience of school in America? Write a response in which you describe what Galarza experienced and learned. Remember to cite evidence from the text to support your response.
This question is about "Barrio boy"
Answer and Explanation:
Galarza is apprehensive about going to American school, but he was anxious about how he could learn English and become a proud American, as he himself says.
When he arrives at school he gets tense, because he thought that the teachers could be rude and that he would be the only boy not to speak English, but he had a very different experience, which helped him a lot to form a thought about the country in which he was living. First, the teachers were very kind and patient and taught him English very calmly. He was not the only foreigner and had the company of many friends, even Americans who helped him to speak correctly. Galarza then realized that this was a country that also had kind and solicitous people.
read the excerpt from "how the Grimm brothers save the fairytale." for what purpose does the author mentioned the names of various Grimm works in this excerpt? Select three answers
Answer:
The author mentions the Grimm's tales to identify some that were omitted or placed in footnotes.
The author mentions the tales to unfold a series of deaths to support the main idea of the excerpt.

whats the controlling idea of the book/paragraph called "The Shakespeare Shakedown"
I will give brainliest & a thank you. thank you sm.
Answer:
The controlling idea of the text is that Simon Schama thinks and believes that William Shakespeare and the question of his authorship for some of his famous works of art is a question that needs no authenticity. Though some may believe that he is not capable of producing such 'famous works' considering his upbringing and education, his life experiences and 'imaginative creativity' helped him become who he was and is more than most of us too.
Explanation:
The controlling idea of any text is the opinion or the direction in which the author is taking the argument forward. This means that it contains the personal opinion and feelings of the writer about the topic of the text.
In the essay "The Shakespeare Showdown," author Simon Schama presents his opinion that there are many who question the authenticity of numerous literary texts that were written by William Shakespeare. Some even pointed out that Shakespeare is not 'intelligent' enough to have written them. But Simon believes that Shakespeare is indeed capable of writing those contested works.
While some may opine that "[Shakespeare's] cultural provenance was too lowly, and his education too rudimentary, to have allowed him to penetrate the minds of kings and courtiers", there is no doubt that his "capacity for imaginative extension was socially limitless", thus helping him become who he is today. And in the words of William Hazlitt, "He was nothing in himself, but he was all that others were, or that they could become."
Thus, the controlling idea of this text is that Shakespeare was and is indeed someone capable of authoring those 'contested' books and is more too.

"A Valentine" ( PLEASE GIVE AN ACTUAL ANSWER!!!!!!!!!) NO NONSENSE
by Edgar Allan Poe
For her this rhyme is penned whose luminous eyes,
Brightly expressive as the twins of Leda,
Shall find her own sweet name, that nestling lies
Upon the page, enwrapped from every reader.
Search narrowly the lines!—they hold a treasure
Divine—a talisman—an amulet
That must be worn at heart. Search well the measure—
The words—the syllables! Do not forget
The trivialest point, or you may lose your labor
And yet there is in this no Gordian knot
Which one might not undo without a sabre,
If one could merely comprehend the plot.
Enwritten upon the leaf where now are peering
Eyes scintillating soul, there lie perdus
Three eloquent words oft uttered in the hearing
Of poets, by poets—as the name is a poet's, too,
Its letters, although naturally lying
Like the knight Pinto—Mendez Ferdinando—
Still form a synonym for Truth—Cease trying!
You will not read the riddle, though you do the best you can do.
Based on the words luminous, treasure, search, lose, scintillating, and riddle that are used in the poem, what does the poet think of love?
Precious but mysterious
Short-lived and fickle
Understandable but strange
Well-worn and comfortable
Answer:
Precious but mysterious
Explanation:
A Valentine is a lyrical poem written by Edgar Allan Poe. However, this is not just a poem. It's also a riddle that Poe made to reveal his secret lover. He is expressing his love for a woman, to whom he can't confess directly because she’s already married.
Based on the given words, we can conclude that, to the poet, love is precious but mysterious. It's precious like a treasure but mysterious like a riddle.
