1)Didion refers to the migraines of her early years as a "shameful secret." "Migraine headaches," she writes, "were, as everyone who did not have them knew, imaginary." Why would she be ashamed of migraines?(ACES form).





2) To what extent are Didion's migraines her "fault"? (Consider the notion of a "migraine personality," which Didion describes as "ambitious, inward, intolerant of error, rather rigidly organized, perfectionist." Migraine has physiological and chemical origins, but manifests in reaction to psychological stimuli and quirks of personality. How does this make it different from cancer, a flu?)



3)What is the silver lining, benefit of a migraine?​

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read In Bed, by Joan Didion

1)Didion refers to the migraines of her early years as a "shameful secret." "Migraine headaches," she writes, "were, as everyone who did not have them knew, imaginary." Why would she be ashamed of migraines? (ACES form).

2) To what extent are Didion's migraines her "fault"? (Consider the notion of a "migraine personality," which Didion describes as "ambitious, inward, intolerant of error, rather rigidly organized, a perfectionist." Migraine has physiological and chemical origins but manifests in reaction to psychological stimuli and quirks of personality. How does this make it different from cancer, the flu?)

3)What is the silver lining, benefit of a migraine?​

Answer:

1) Because most people don´t understand them, they are usually underestimated and those who suffer from them are stigmatized as too sensitive or not trying enough to make them go away.

Explanation:

2) According to her doctor, in addition to an inherited predisposition, there is such a thing as a "migraine personality," meaning personal characteristics that further predisposition some people to suffer migraines. In that sense, the author feels as it´s partially her fault because her personality becomes an element that she could supposedly change to lessen her migraines. This would not be possible with "real" diseases such as cancer, or the flu.

3) The moments of distress help her to "count my blessings" when the pain goes away. She finds it useful, like a forced meditation through the pain that leaves her relaxed afterward.

Read the excerpt from A Black Hole Is NOT a Hole by Carolyn Cinami DeCristofano.

Einstein's idea of gravity had big consequences. It helped explain some observations that Newton's idea didn't account for. It also opened our minds to amazing new possibilities. For example, taking his cue from Einstein's idea that space bends, scientist Karl Schwarzschild began to think about what would happen if a place in space were extremely distorted. His answer: light would follow the hyper-bent space, never to turn away from it. This was the first prediction of a black hole. At first, some scientists (including Einstein!) rejected Schwarzschild's ideas. Others were intrigued and began searching the skies for real black holes. Just decades later, they found the first of them. It just goes to show: sometimes, as Einstein himself once said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

Which sentence is the best summary of the excerpt?

Einstein opened our minds to amazing new possibilities and showed us that imagination is more important than knowledge.
Scientists searched the skies for decades before they found the first real black holes.
Karl Schwarzschild used his imagination when he thought about light and extremely distorted parts of space.
