Answer:
I believe the best option to eliminate wordiness to be:
B) He received an honorable discharge in 1944 after being acquitted of all charges.
Explanation:
Wordiness means taking longer than what is necessary to get to the point. It happens when we use redundant expressions or simply when we use too many words. The sentence we are analyzing here uses "later", "1944" and "after" to indicate time, which is too much. Also, if someone is acquitted of charges, it must happen at a court. Thus if we eliminate "later" and "at the court-martial", the sentence will sound less redundant:
B) He received an honorable discharge in 1944 after being acquitted of all charges.
Therefore, letter B is the option.
Letter A eliminates an important piece of information.
Letter C and D do not offer any relevant changes. They eliminate the year, but the redundant expressions remain.

‘A Slight Misunderstanding’ is an example of humorous narrative essay. Pick out a few humorous instances from the story.
Answer:
A Slight Misunderstanding is a short humourous book written by J. B Boothroyd, a popular English writer.
The story has a few humorous instances such as when the protagonist of the story enters the wrong car because it was similar to his car but saw that it contained a woman's handbag but he somehow found the home address of the lady by reading the collar on a dog nearby that barked at him.
He eventually found out that the car was actually his own car that the woman forgot her handbag in.
The situation was funny when he was relating it to the woman's husband because the husband was used to his wife's forgetfulness and carelessness. It was also funny because the only reason the protagonist knew it was actually his car was because of the plate number.
Another humorous incident that happened was when the protagonist entered a wrong car for real when the boot of the car was opened and it was hay that was there instead of fruits, fish, and other groceries.

What is the point of view in the excerpts from Olaudah Equiano's memor? What is likely his purpose in beginning the narrative with details describing his village in Nigeria
Someone please answer it for me i need the answer to pass my summer school i would really appreciate it
Answer:
The point of view that can be found in the excerpts from Olaudah Equiano's memoir is the First-Person Narrative.
The purpose of Olaudah for beginning the narrative with details of his village in Nigeria is to educate his European audience with African culture and custom and how the whole community of slaves are ill-treated by white people.
Explanation:
'The Life of Olaudah Equiano' is a memoir of Olaudah Equinao. The memoir narrates the life of Equinao in slavery and how he purchased his freedom.
The memoir is compiled with the letters of Olaudah and his memoir. In both the writings there is different point of narrative used. In letters we can find the third person narrative, whereas in the memoir the first-person narrative. Both the narratives has helped to build the author's credibility. So, the point of view that can be viewed in the memoir's is the first person narrative.
Equinao begin his narrative with the details describing his village in Nigeria with the purpose to educate his European audience with the cultures and customs of Africa. He described the details of his village depicting the difference between African and English cultures.

What is the meaning of the figurative language used in this excerpt? Mark Antony is sweet and kind with his words. Mark Antony steals honey and gives it back to the bees without them knowing. Mark Antony manipulates people without them knowing. Mark Antony is like a bee that makes honey for Rome.
Answer:
Mark Antony manipulates people without them knowing.
Explanation:
William Shakespeare's "The Tragedy of Julius Caesar" revolve around the death of Julius Caesar and the fights for the power of Rome. This play delves into the historical facts about Caesar's death and how the nation of Rome came to be the main bone of contentment among the major powers in an attempt to be made ruler of Rome.
In the given excerpt from Act V scene i of the play, Cassius comments how Mark Antony is like a bee, for "they rob the Hybla bees And leave them honeyless". This is a figurative language that compares Antony to a honeybee who sweet-talks and gain friendship and trust from the others while secretly trying to achieve personal gain, for his own interest. Cassius's comment seems to suggest that Mark Antony knows how to manipulate people without them knowing what he is really doing.

Which action relies heavily on a person's cognitive abilities?
A). Standing on one foot for a entire minute
B). Watching television
C). Treading water in the swimming pool
D). Playing a game of poker
Answer:
D). Playing a game of poker
Explanation:
Poker is a complex game that requires knowledge of the game, which has a set of rules that are not that easy to comprehend at first.
It also requires planning and strategy, which are abilities that scientists have found to cluster in the frontal parts of the brain.
For these reasons, playing a game of poker requires a high degree of cognitive ability, and this is why it is not surprising that many smart people like poker, and that people who are good at poker are often intelligent for many other cognitive tasks as well.
Write a paragraph about your favorite book or movie. Use at least six common and six
proper nouns correctly.
Answer:
I like suspense. Suspense keeps me reading, watching, etc. to see what happens next. I like lots of intricate clues, the process of figuring things out, and being able to figure out what happens next.
I also like really descriptive books with a lot of world-building, which leads me towards sci-fi and fantasy. Although I like realism from time to time, I generally prefer mysteries, comedies, etc. to flat-out realistic fiction.
Some specific sub-genres I enjoy:
-Transformation. Literal, not figurative. Although I don’t like werewolves. I like it when people can become animals or other people. There’s just something really cool about that to me.
-Hackers. Relax, I know nothing about hacking computers. I just really like books about computer-related adventures, the type that involve searching through obscure websites and finding mysterious Easter eggs deep within the Internet.
-Steampunk mysteries. Enough said. Be warned, I haven’t read many that were very good. I don’t like Gail Carriger, for one.
-Dreams. I love stories about dreams. Inception, The Interrogation of Ashala Wolf by Ambelin Kwaymullina, even vaguely dreamlike stuff like The Strange Library by Haruki Murakami. I just started reading Sandman by Neil Gaiman.
-Books as a plot device. Myst, The Books of Beginning, The Books of Magic, etc.
These are just a few of the subgenres I enjoy!
Hope it helped you...

In this excerpt from "The Golden Goose" by the Brothers Grimm, who is the protagonist?
This question is incomplete. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
In this excerpt from “the golden goose” by the brothers grimm, who is the protagonist?
At this Dummling was glad, and said: “get up and come with me; you shall eat yourself full.” He led him to the king's palace where all the flour in the whole kingdom was collected, and from it he caused a huge mountain of bread to be baked. The man from the forest stood before it, began to eat, and by the end of one day the whole mountain had vanished. Then Dummling for the third time asked for his bride; but the king again sought a way out, and ordered a ship which could sail on land and on water. “As soon as you come sailing back in it,” said he, “you shall have my daughter for wife.” Dummling went straight into the forest, and there sat the little gray man to whom he had given his cake. When he heard what Dummling wanted, he said: “since you have given me to eat and to drink, I will give you the ship; and I do all this because you once were kind to me.” Then he gave him the ship which could sail on land and water, and when the king saw that, he could no longer prevent him from having his daughter. The wedding was celebrated, and after the king's death, Dummling inherited his kingdom and lived for a long time contentedly with his wife.
a. the king
b. the king’s daughter
c. Dummling

After doing that, he is given a golden goose, meets a king and his daughter and, for making the princess laugh for the first time ever, he is promised to marry her. Because of the food and beer Dummling once shared with him, the little gray man helps him by giving him the boat asked for by the king. Dummling can now finally marry the princess.

Which paragraph in the excerpt from Amy Tan’s “Rules of the Game” best shows a conflict between two cultures?
My mother patted the flour off her hands. "Let me see book," she said quietly. She scanned the pages quickly, not reading the foreign English symbols, seeming to search deliberately for nothing in particular.
"This American rules," she concluded at last. "Every time people come out from foreign country, must know rules. You not know, judge say, Too bad, go back. They not telling you why so you can use their way go forward. They say, Don't know why, you find out yourself. But they knowing all the time. Better you take it, find out why yourself." She tossed her head back with a satisfied smile.
I found out about all the whys later. I read the rules and looked up all the big words in a dictionary. I borrowed books from the Chinatown library. I studied each chess piece, trying to absorb the power each contained.
I learned about opening moves and why it's important to control the center early on; the shortest distance between two points is straight down the middle. I learned about the middle game and why tactics between two adversaries are like clashing ideas; the one who plays better has the clearest plans for both attacking and getting out of traps.

In no less than seventy-five words, explain some differences between the kind of memorization that is required in a game like "Telephone" and that which is required by a bard reciting The Odyssey. Comment on the effects of those differences for an oral society versus a literary one.
Different cultures take different approaches to the way they transmit knowledge. These varieties are often classified in two categories: oral and literary traditions.
An oral society is one in which knowledge is transmitted from person to person through speech. We can compare this to the children's game "Telephone," in which children pass along a message by whispering in each other's ear. There are several advantages to this approach. For example, through this method, people only need to memorize the main parts of a story, while being able to alter the details slightly. This requires a memorization that is less precise and more analytical. However, it can also lead to many inaccuracies and unintentional changes.
On the other hand, a literary culture tends to write information down. This allows people to seek out the source and read it without having to meet someone who can recite it to them. This ensures that the text remains the same throughout time. It also allows for more information to be stored. However, memorizing such a text is a more difficult task, as every word and detail needs to remain identical upon recitation. This would be the process a bard would have to follow when reciting The Odyssey.
Although each method would have a different impact on the information that is shared and the effects it has in society, there is no one single perfect method. They each come with advantages and disadvantages for the societies that practice them.
