"It is wintertime. The weather is cold, but the ants are doing fine. They have their warm home, and they have a lot of food to eat. They can wait for the warm weather in spring. The reason the ants have a lot of food is because they worked in the summer.
So now they have grain to eat. Grain is a kind of plant. People plant it and cut it and then they use it to make bread. The ants get the grain in summer, because that is when grain grows. The ants live in the fields where the grain grows. When the wind blows, some grain falls and the ants rush to get it. They do not eat it right then. They save it because they need to be able to have food in the winter months when plants do not grow. This goes on all summer.
The ants work hard every day. They pick up the grain, they carry it to their home. Every ant helps. Each ant carries one piece of grain. It is hard work. They carry more than they need to eat every day. They carry grain they will eat in winter, too. They play sometimes, but most of the time they work.
The grasshoppers live near the ants, and they love summer. They hop and play and they laugh at the ants. They say, “We have fun every day while you work every day. Come and play. You can get grain later.” But the ants say, “No, we have to work.”
Soon it is winter, and the grasshoppers are cold. They are hungry, too. They do not have food to eat. Since they played all summer, they did not save food for winter.
One day, a grasshopper came to see the ants and he was very hungry. “Please, ants, could you help me a little bit? I am just so hungry!” said the grasshopper.
The ants asked him, "Why didn’t you work in summer? We did. Remember, how you played while we worked? You made fun of us and said, ‘All work and no play is no good.’ Well, now we have food and you are hungry.”
The grasshopper said, "I didn't have the time. The weather was so lovely that I spent all the days singing. I couldn’t help but have fun. We had such a good time.”
The ants said, “We are sorry you have no food. We have a lot because we worked hard. You have none because you played. But, we will give you some food because we are good, kind neighbors. We want you to live, so we will help you now. But learn from us. Playing is a lot of fun. But you need to work to live.”
The grasshopper thanked the ants. The grasshopper had learned a lesson. It is fun to play, but you need to save for winter, too. You need to work if you want to eat. Next summer, he would work and play, too, just like the ants."
Which sentence from the story is an example of an opinion?
"We want you to live, so we will help you now"
"Grain is a kind of plant"
"The grasshoppers live near the ants"
"It is fun to play, but you need to save for winter, too"
Based on the story above, which cause and effect relationship best describes the conflict in the story?
The ants don't like the grasshopper, so they took all its food.
The grasshopper has no food because he played all Summer and refused to work.
The ants are kind, due to the fact that they shared their food with the grasshopper.
The Summer was rough, so nobody has food for Winter.
This story talks a lot about working hard. Based off the connotations and tone of the story, the author thinks that hard work should be seen as...
something to be avoided in favor of fun activities
something that is important and should be a priority
something overachievers do, and not for everyone
a way of getting others to like you and depend on you
Which of the following sentences is correct?
The ants, unlike the grasshopper, spends the summer working.
The ants, unlike the grasshopper, spending the summer working.
The ants, unlike the grasshopper, spend the summer working.
The ant, unlike the grasshoppers, spend the summer working.
Which would be an appropriate thesis statement for an essay on why the grasshopper should work hard like the ants?
In the ant and the grasshopper, the ants are right to spend the Summer working in order to survive the Winter.
I think the grasshopper needs to work harder so the ants don't have to help him.
Working hard is important because if you don't then you won't do well in life.
The story is about grasshoppers who just play while the ants work, then the grasshoppers don't have food.
Answer:
Explanation:
Opinion= "It is fun to play, but you need to save for winter,too"
Cause and effect= " The grasshopper has no food becuase he played all summer and refused to work."
The author thinks that hard work should be seen as "something that is important and should be a priority."
Correct sentence: "The ants, unlike the grasshopper, spend the summer working." MAKE SURE 'ants' and NOT 'ant" since it's plural not singular.
Thesis: " Working hard is important becuase if you don't then you won't do well in life."

Read this excerpt from White Fang.
At last [White Fang’s] nose touched the canvas. He waited. Nothing happened. Then he smelled the strange fabric, saturated with the man-smell. He closed on the canvas with his teeth and gave a gentle tug. Nothing happened, though the adjacent portions of the tepee moved. He tugged harder. There was a greater movement. It was delightful. He tugged still harder, and repeatedly, until the whole tepee was in motion.
What is revealed about White Fang through his interaction with the tepee?
a. his frustration with things he does not understand
b. his natural instinct to explore his environment
c. his dislike of things related to people
b. his determination to escape back into the wild
Answer:
B
Explanation:
It's not A due to the author portraying no frustration or animosity toward the things it doesn't understand. It's not C, due to the author saying "There was a greater movement. It was delightful." If the Author wanted to convey his dislike of humans or human items, they would've added something such as "He tugged harder in order to remove the stench of the human." And nor is it D, for if he wanted to escape back to the wild, they could've left the teepee alone and went back to the wild.

I am writing an research paper for something, and I need to make an in-text citation because I made a direct quote.
What are the grammar rules relating to in-text citation? Where would the quotation marks and period go after the citation. How do I write an in-text citation correctly?
Thanks.
Answer:
Since you are restating the idea in your own words instead of quoting it, do not use quotation marks. Always use in-text citations when you paraphrase or summarize so that the reader will know that the information comes from another source!
The final period or comma goes inside the quotation marks, even if it is not a part of the quoted material unless the quotation is followed by a citation. If a citation in parentheses follows the quotation, the period follows the citation.
APA in-text citation style uses the author's last name and the year of publication, for example: (Field, 2005). For direct quotations, include the page number as well, for example: (Field, 2005, p. 14). For sources such as websites and e-books that have no page numbers, use a paragraph number.
Answer:
the final period or comma goes in quotations

The Journey of the Albatross
There once was a family of Albatrosses. There was a mother named Caroline, a 2-year-old daughter named Unna and a hatchling named Filly. One day Caroline the mother was looking for worms for her Young’uns. She flew very low to search, then walked. She couldn’t find not one. So she flew 2 miles where there was more dirt. Still no sign. It had been 4 hours. Still no sign. Her family was getting very hungry. Caroline dug through the dirt, dug through the trees, tried everything. No sign of worms. Caroline was very tired. She decided it was better for her to check on her family then to continue to look for worms when there is none to find.
It took Caroline hours to try and get back home. Suddenly, Caroline found a tunnel she recognized when she came to look for more worms. It was 3 sections in the tunnel. Caroline thought she remembered that she went through the middle tunnel so she flew through. Everything looked familiar! Caroline was so happy! She chirped loudly which she seemed to say “I’m coming home my young’uns!” Suddenly, when Caroline flew through, everything didn’t look the same. It didn’t look like it did before. Caroline was lost. Everything looked blurred, everything looked gloomy, and everything started to darken. Caroline was sad. She started to doubt that she was a good mother. Caroline shut her eyes and took a nap for an hour. Eventually, she went into deep sleep. She dreamed of her young’uns crying for their mother, screaming, shouting. And suddenly 1 of them died. It was Unna. The one that loved Caroline the most. But Unna was dancing with Caroline. It seemed as if Caroline and her daughter Unna were dead. But that was just a dream. Suddenly Caroline woke up by a weird feeling on her wing. It tickled. Caroline slowly opened her eyes and rose up from her deep sleep. She looked over and as crazy as it can sound, she found a worm on her wing! Instantly, Caroline slurped up the worm to save for her young’uns. Caroline was shocked. How could she find a worm in a tunnel? But she didn’t focus on that thought too much longer. She had lives to save! She got out of the tunnel, then she found another bird and she asked the bird where the city was. He told her the directions and she flew right to the bank and looked for the tree that was next to the bank and found she young’uns. They 2, were healthy and alive. But there was an extra bird in the nest. Who was the third bird? Her young’uns told Caroline their mother that the other male albatross was taking care of them while she was gone. Caroline talked to the new albatross and they liked each other. They mated and Caroline was having more eggs. They were all happy together and they lived happily ever after.

Before 1845, “states were allowed to hold elections any time they pleased within a 34-day period before the first Wednesday in December.” What was one effect of this election system?
Voters in states with late elections knew the results of early elections.
Farmers were often unable to get to their polling place in time to vote.
The people who voted first could decide the outcome of most elections.
People spent less time in church because they would often travel to vote on Sundays.
Answer: Voters in states with late elections knew the results of early elections.
Explanation:
Before voting day was standardized across the United States in 1845, states, as the question mentions, were allowed to vote any time they pleased within a 34-day period before the first Wednesday in December.
This had the effect of letting voters in states with late elections know the results from the states with early elections.
This was problematic because knowing the results of early voting affected the turnout in states with late voting as they either showed up in more numbers to get a person elected or in less numbers to do the same.
Congress therefore decided to standardize the voting day and this is why election day is one day which is the first Tuesday following the first Monday in November.
