Pretend that your favorite character has stepped out of the pages of a book, or out of your television, and into real life.
Write a story about what happens that day.

Answer:

I might be a little extra.. but I hope this helps!

Explanation:

I was walking to my car after a long day of work, when I saw a man walking towards me. He was my favorite character from my favorite book. I couldn't believe it was him. I stopped and stared at him, and he stared back at me. We just looked at each other for a moment, until he finally spoke.

"I've been watching you," he said. I know what you're thinking, and I know what you're feeling. I know you're wondering why I'm here. But I can't tell you that. Just know that I'm here to help you. And I won't hurt you. "

Then he walked past me and into the night. I stood there for a moment, wondering what had just happened. I knew I had seen something real, but I couldn't explain it. I decided to go home and think about it.

Later that night, I heard a knock on my door. I opened it to find the man from earlier.

"I'm sorry if I scared you," he said. "I just needed to talk to you. I needed to tell you that I know what's going on. I know what's going to happen. And I'm here to help you."

Then he told me everything. He told me about the future, and about the things that were going to happen. He told me how I could prevent them, and how I could make things better.

I was skeptical at first, but he showed me things that only I could know. He showed me the future, and it was terrifying. But with his help, I knew I could make it through.

The man stayed with me for a while, and we talked about everything. He told me his name, and I told him mine. We became friends, and I knew I could trust him.

Eventually, he had to leave. But he promised he would be back, and that he would help me through everything.

And he has been true to his word. He has helped me through everything, and he is always there when I need him. He is my friend, and my protector. And I know he will never hurt me.

Read the excerpt from Team Moon.

The trouble with option 2 was that the venting might push the fuel to an unstable condition. Or, another possible outcome of the “burping”: what if the landing gear hadn’t deployed correctly? Could any movement, or any resulting burst—no matter how small—tip the LM over? Many a voice in the debate thought the safest option was to abort—now! But that opinion was quickly overruled by the Grumman and NASA leadership (who were confident of the landing gear), and the consensus of the leaders was that it would be safe to gently, gently burp the engine.

Why does the author use a problem-solution text structure in the paragraph?

A)to help the reader understand the astronauts’ feelings about the landing
B)to help the reader understand the intense pressure of the situation
C)to help the reader understand the similarities between the leaders’ options
D)to help the reader understand the process of “burping” an engine

Read the following passage from "What Does American Democracy Mean to Me" by Mary McLeod Bethune and answer the question that follows:

As we have been extended a measure of democracy, we have brought to the nation rich gifts. We have helped to build America with our labor, strengthened it with our faith and enriched it with our song. We have given you Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Booker T. Washington, Marian Anderson and George Washington Carver. But even these are only the first fruits of a rich harvest, which will be reaped when new and wider fields are opened to us.

Which of the following is the best paraphrase of the above passage?

1. America is like a great farmland of amazing people doing amazing things. We have given our gifts to help this country grow and we will continue to harvest.
2. "As we have been extended a measure of democracy, we have brought to the nation rich gifts. We have helped to build America with our labor, strengthened it with our faith and enriched it with our song. We have given you Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Booker T. Washington, Marian Anderson and George Washington Carver. But even these are only the first fruits of a rich harvest, which will be reaped when new and wider fields are opened to us."
3. Democracy is great and we're glad to be part of it. We're glad to help America grow with our work, our religion, our songs, our authors, and our inventors.
4. Mary Mcleod Bethune says that when democracy applies to her people even a little bit, it's been great for the country. Their hard work, their religious faith, their songs make America stronger. Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Booker T. Washington, Marian Anderson, and George Washington Carver are all amazing parts of this country. But there will be even more greatness when they have more rights.

In the movie Toy Story, a group of toys come to life. In a TV commercial, a car races down the highway. The car is going so fast that it flies into the air. Suddenly, the car has stripes and claws. It has turned into a tiger! How do all these things happen? The answer is in the fascinating world of computer animation.
Animation has been around for a long time. You may remember Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny. These cartoon characters were created in a procedure called cel animation.
Cel-animation cartoons are drawn on clear sheets of plastic. To make them move, the artist draws a series of pictures. The artist makes each picture slightly different from the one before. Then, the artist shows the pictures at an accelerated pace. This process makes the cartoons seem to move. To make longer films, like Bambi or Snow White, artists need to draw thousands of cels. It is very tedious work.
A newer technique uses computers to make cartoons seem alive. It is different from cel animation in many ways. One of the most significant changes is very simple. If you look closely, you’ll notice that cel animation cartoons look flat. You can see them move but they don’t look real. The images are two-dimensional---they have height and width, but they have no depth.
Computers enable animators to create lifelike, three-dimensional, or 3-D, images. First , the animator or artist records the shape of an object, animal, or person from all sides. Once recorded in the computer, the 3-D image can be rotated, moved, and twisted. The artist can add and change details. The image is transformed into a cartoon character with its own personality and flair. Cartoon artists have discovered a sensational new tool. Cartooning will never be the same.

WHOMEVER ANSWERS CORRECTLY GETS BRAINLIEST ANSWER
Africanized honey bees were created in Brazil in 1957. Scientists mixed local bees with African ones to create a bee that would make more honey. They ended up with something much different. The new bees evolved in unexpected ways. They multiplied and migrated north. These Africanized honeybees are now known as killer bees for several scary but legitimate reasons.

Killer bees are far more aggressive than their relatives. They have been known to attack in great numbers, even when there has been no direct threat on their hives. They have swarmed because of loud noises, dark clothing, bright jewelry, and even strong perfume. They will chase a person for more than a quarter of a mile and remain angered for up to 24 hours.

Killer bees are also dangerous because of their sting. While most bees take up to 30 seconds to attack, killer bees sting in just 3 seconds. Their venom is no stronger than a regular bee's, but when one killer bee stings, others follow. With up to 80,000 members in a colony, victims are quickly overwhelmed. So many stings in such a short time can cause allergic reactions. Victims enter a state of shock, lose blood pressure, and in many cases, die.

A final reason why "killer" has been added to their name is the unfortunate number of deaths they have caused. Experts estimate that the Africanized honeybee moves at a rate of about 200 miles each year. As the bees claim new territory, they claim new victims as well. More than 1000 people have been stung to death in South and Central America. There have been rising numbers of attacks in Mexico and a handful in the United States. Once a swarm sets sights on a victim, it is very difficult for the victim to escape. Once attacked, it is very difficult to survive.

Thankfully, there has been no killer bee invasion as some once predicted. Although there is no need for panic, the threat of the killer bee is real and should be taken seriously. It is good practice to call a professional to remove beehives in your area. If you are stung multiple times by any insect, you should always seek medical attention. You may not be expert enough to tell the difference between a killer bee and a less dangerous one, so be smart. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Which sentence from the conclusion paragraph best rephrases the author's thesis?
a)Thankfully, there has been no killer bee invasion as some once predicted.

b)Although there is no need for panic, the threat of the killer bee is real and should be taken seriously.

c)You may not be expert enough to tell the difference between a killer bee and a less dangerous one, so be smart.

d)It is better to be safe than sorry.

4.01 Discussion: Theme in "Rules of the Game"
Remember that a story's theme is a big idea or message that the author intends to convey to readers. A story can have more than one theme. You'll be using a discussion to determine and analyze themes from Amy Tan's short story "Rules of the Game." The goal for this discussion is to infer a theme based text evidence, to explain your reasoning, and to reflect on the ideas of your classmates.

Let's read one of your classmates’ posts:

I think a major theme in "Rules of the Game" is that parent-child relationships have an element of strategic conflict in them. In the last image in the story, Waverly imagines a chess game with her mother. The last line in the story is "I closed my eyes and pondered my next move." This line indicates that Waverly knows she must be careful and thoughtful when going up against her mother. Do you agree with me?

Create one original post in which you

State a theme from "Rules of the Game."

Cite the text evidence that supports the theme.

Create two response posts in which you

Respond respectfully and meaningfully to the post of a classmate. You can agree or disagree with a post and state why, or you can ask a question about the post. You might also note how a classmate's post supports or contradicts your own and explain how it does so. Another idea is to suggest how consulting research material might help you and your classmates determine the themes of the story.

1. Read the following line from Kennedy's speech and answer the following question.
"I think we can do better. I don’t want the talents of any American to go to waste. I know that there are those who want to turn everything over to the government. I don’t at all."
How does Kennedy use pathos to convince his audience?

a. Kennedy wants to unite the people to work with the government to create a better America. He's using emotion to inspire the people to make a change, because they have the talents to do so.

b. Kennedy isn't using pathos. He's using logos because he's using logic that Americans should work with the government.

c. Kennedy is using pathos because he is reaching the people with emotion and making them feel angry about what is happening. He thinks they should make the change alone, without the government.

d. All of the above.

2. Read the following sentence from Nixon's speech and answer the following question.
"But, good as this record is, may I emphasize it isn’t enough. A record is never something to stand on. It’s something to build on. And in building on this record, I believe that we have the secret for progress, we know the way to progress."
How is Nixon using logos to convince his audience?

a. Nixon is actually using pathos because the American audience sympathizes with him and his struggles. He has made things work- so he should be the one to fix it.

b. Nixon is explaining that everything is on the government. The government knows how to solve problems, and Americans should not be involved.

c. Nixon is using logos by explaining that while they have made excellent changes, they still need to move forward. But because they have been successful, they know how to continue to do so.

d. All of the above.
