journal notes for the week. I was just finishing that when Travis sat down next to me and asked this question:






"You believe in all this Earthseed stuff, don't you?"





"Every word," I answered.




I reached down, picked up a small stone, and put it on the table between us. "If I could analyze this and tell you all that it was made of, would that mean I'd made up its contents?"




He didn't do more than glance at the rock. He kept his eyes on me. "So what did you analyze to get Earthseed?"




"Other people," I said, "myself, everything I could hear, see, and all the history I could learn. My father is a—was—a minister and a teacher. My stepmother ran a neighborhood school. I had a chance to see a lot."





"What did your father think of your idea of God?"






"He never knew."





"You never had the chance to tell him."








I shrugged. "He's the one person in the world I worked hard not to hurt."










"Dead?"





"Yes."






"Yeah. My parents, too." He shook his head. "People don't live long these days."





There was a period of silence. After a while, he said, "How did you get your ideas about God?"








"I was looking for God," I said. "I wasn't looking for mythology or mysticism or magic. I didn’t know whether there was a god to find, but I wanted to know. God would have to be a power that cannot be defied by anyone or anything."






"Change."





"Change, yes.”





"But it's not a god. It's not a person or an intelligence or even a thing. It's just... I don't know. An idea."







I smiled. Was that such a terrible criticism? "It's a truth," I said.





---------------------------------------------------------






Now, this is my first option to quote:







“‘So what did you analyze to get Earthseed?' ‘Other people,… myself, everything I could read, hear, see, all the history I could learn... I had a chance to see a lot’... ‘I was looking for God... I didn’t know whether there was a god to find, but I wanted to know. God would have to be a power that cannot be defied by anyone or anything.’ ‘Change.’ ‘Change, yes’” (217).













now here's my second:







“‘So what did you analyze to get Earthseed?' ‘Other people,… myself, everything I could read, hear, see, all the history I could learn... I had a chance to see a lot... I was looking for God... I didn’t know whether there was a god to find, but I wanted to know. God would have to be a power that cannot be defied by anyone or anything.’ ‘Change.’ ‘Change, yes’” (217).










notice how both quotes are the same although they're different, the second has less quote mark, please comment which is best for me to use for my essay, please?

Read this passage from Walden by Henry David Thoreau. What is Thoreau comparing in this
passage?
It is remarkable how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten
track for ourselves. I had not lived there a week before my feet wore a path from my door to
the pond-side; and though it is five or six years since I trod it, it is still quite distinct. It is true, I
fear that others may have fallen into it, and so helped to keep it open. The surface of the earth
is soft and impressible by the feet of men; and so with the paths which the mind travels. How
worn and dusty, then, must be the highways of the world, how deep the ruts of tradition and
conformity!

A. Worn paths are compared to conformity

B. A path is compared to the feet

C. Ideas are compared to feet

D. The mind is compared to traveling

Read this excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Masque of the Red Death" and answer the question that follows.

Here the case was very different, as might have been expected from the duke's love of the bizarre. The apartments were so irregularly disposed that the vision embraced but little more than one at a time. There was a sharp turn at every twenty or thirty yards, and at each turn a novel effect. To the right and left, in the middle of each wall, a tall and narrow Gothic window looked out upon a closed corridor which pursued the windings of the suite. These windows were of stained glass whose colour varied in accordance with the prevailing hue of the decorations of the chamber into which it opened. That at the eastern extremity was hung, for example in blue—and vividly blue were its windows. The second chamber was purple in its ornaments and tapestries, and here the panes were purple. The third was green throughout, and so were the casements. The fourth was furnished and lighted with orange—the fifth with white—the sixth with violet. The seventh apartment was closely shrouded in black velvet tapestries that hung all over the ceiling and down the walls, falling in heavy folds upon a carpet of the same material and hue. . . .And thus were produced a multitude of gaudy and fantastic appearances.

What kind of writing does the excerpt represent?

A.
expository
B.
descriptive
C.
persuasive
D.
argumentative
