account of Mark Twain’s experiences as a riverboat captain.
I soon discovered two things. One was that a vessel would not be likely to sail for the mouth of the Amazon under ten or twelve years; and the other was that the nine or ten dollars still left in my pocket would not suffice for so imposing an exploration as I had planned, even if I could afford to wait for a ship. Therefore it followed that I must contrive a new career. The "Paul Jones” was now bound for St. Louis. I planned a siege against my pilot, and at the end of three hard days he surrendered. He agreed to teach me the Mississippi River from New Orleans to St. Louis for five hundred dollars, payable out of the first wages I should receive after graduating. I entered upon the small enterprise of "learning” twelve or thirteen hundred miles of the great Mississippi River with the easy confidence of my time of life. If I had really known what I was about to require of my faculties, I should not have had the courage to begin. I supposed that all a pilot had to do was to keep his boat in the river, and I did not consider that that could be much of a trick, since it was so wide.
Which statement best summarizes the passage?
Twain feels confident about learning the Mississippi River.
Twain finds that piloting a riverboat is not as easy as it looks.
Twain convinces his pilot to teach him how to navigate a riverboat.
Twain is concerned about not having enough money to survive.

Answer:
B
Explanation:
The League, like Local 25, had expected a turnout of four or five thousand. They were bowled over by this army, utterly unprepared for it. They had organized strikes in the garment trade, small ones, usually confined to a single shop, but never before had they undertaken something on so vast a scale. They might fail, might be laughed at by the whole of New York as well as John Dyche and the ILGWU men, and all the same they knew this was the challenge they'd been hoping for — their chance to show the world they were more than highbrow butters-in, just as the shirtwaist makers were more than irresponsible little girls.
What conclusion can be drawn by connecting knowledge of the historical time period with information in the text?
Answers
Answer:
3. By providing an organizational structure for working women, the Women’s Trade Union League gained enough strength in numbers to have some power.
Explanation:
Joan Dash's "We Shall Not Be Moved," tells the dramatic story of how the women's union led a massive strike in the history of America. The story of women workers protesting and organizing strikes, women activists working towards ensuring better and equal opportunities to their female counterparts became one of the most important events in labor history.
In the given passage, the narrator recounts how women trade union "organized strikes" that were big, bringing a turnout of "[an] army" totally unexpected by the League. The strike was to show the men or the government as a whole that "they were more than highbrow butters-in, just as the shirtwaist makers were more than irresponsible little girls."
This detail gives the conclusion that the organizational structure of the working women shows how the Women's Trade Union League managed to gain enough strength in numbers to assert their ability and power.
Thus, the correct answer is option 3.

How is each idea developed and explained?What details support each one? In your answer, be sure to • identify three central ideas presented about the rivalry • explain how the text develops and explains these ideas • use details from the article in your answer
Answers
Answer:
The Bone Wars is an episode in the history of paleontology that led to the discovery of some of the most famous dinosaurs.
Explanation:
The rivalry between Cope and Marsh was what led them to commit illicit acts and even destroy several dinosaur bones in order to "destroy" each other.
They began to collect fossil bones, and hidden from Cope, Marsh had paid for the bones to easily reach him.
Although both were great scientists, instead of working together they attacked each other in a public way.
However, this enmity helped to discover large species such as Diplodocus or Anisonchus Copehater.
Finally, the one who "won the war" was Marsh, who found 80 new species of dinosaur, while Cope found 56.

Surfers have learned to deal with the breaking surf by using the push-up technique. First, when approaching the initial lip of the wave, speed up the paddling cadence and head directly into
the wave. Next, push up and get onto the knees or toes as soon as the wave hits the nose of the board so that the wave rolls over the board and under the chest. The more power the rider
goes into a wave with, the easier it will be to maintain his or her position. Finally, avoid going into the wave at an angle or the water will knock you off your board. The whitewater can be an
exasperating obstacle, but with a little practice every surfer can navigate a breaking surf.
Which option best describes the ordering sequence used in this paragraph?
A
Climactic order
В.
Topical order
C
Spatial order
D
Chronological order
None of the above
Answers
Answer:
D . Chronological order
Explanation:
There are four basic principles of paragraph organization:
Climatic order - order of importance; items are arranged from least important to most important.Topical order - an order that depends on the nature of the topic itself. Spatial order - items are arranged according to their physical position or relationships.Chronological order - items or events are arranged in the order in which they occur. This order is often used in narration and in the description of processes, as we usually list the steps in the order in which they occur.Based on this information, we can conclude that option D is the correct one.

In the short story "The Most Dangerous Game" how did General Zaroff have access to so much money to create his “game”?
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
On a yacht bound for Rio de Janeiro, a passenger named Whitney points out Ship-Trap Island in the distance, a place that sailors dread and avoid. He and his friend Rainsford are big-game hunters bound for a hunting trip in the Amazon River basin. As the yacht sails through the darkness, the two men discuss whether their prey actually feels fear. Rainsford believes that the world consists only of predators and prey, although Whitney is not as certain. Noticing the jitteriness of the crew, Whitney wants to sail past the mysterious island as soon as possible. He theorizes that sailors can sense danger and that evil emanates in waves like light and sound.
Whitney then decides to turn in for the night, but Rainsford opts to smoke his pipe on the afterdeck for a while. Suddenly, he hears three gunshots in the distance and moves toward the railing of the deck to investigate. Hoisting himself onto the rail to try and get a better look, Rainsford drops his pipe, loses his balance in an attempt to catch it, and accidentally plunges into the water. His cries for help go unanswered, and the yacht quickly disappears into the night.
Rainsford decides to swim in the gunshots’ direction. He hears the screeching sound of an animal in agony and heads straight for it, until the cries end abruptly with a pistol shot. Exhausted, Rainsford reaches the rocky shore and immediately falls into a deep sleep. He wakes the next afternoon and sets off in search of food, forced to skirt the thick growth of the jungle and walk along the shore. He soon comes to a bloody, torn-up patch of vegetation where a large animal had thrashed about. He finds an empty rifle cartridge nearby.
He follows the hunter’s footprints in the growing darkness and eventually comes upon a palatial chateau at the edge of a precipice that drops steeply into the rocky ocean below. At first, Rainsford thinks the chateau is a mirage, until he opens the iron gate and knocks on the door. Ivan, a burly man with a gun, answers and refuses to help Rainsford until another man, General Zaroff, appears from inside the chateau and invites Rainsford inside.
Zaroff greets Rainsford warmly and has Ivan show him to a room where he can dress for dinner. The huge, lavish dining hall features numerous stuffed and mounted heads, trophies that Zaroff has brought back from his many hunting adventures around the world. As the two men eat borscht, a red Russian soup made of beets, Rainsford praises his host’s specimens, remarking on how dangerous it can be to hunt Cape buffalo. Zaroff states that he now hunts far more dangerous game on his island. He recounts past hunts, from his childhood in the Crimea to hunting big game around the world, but goes on to describe how the sport eventually became too easy.
Zaroff hunts, however, that he has found a new kind of animal to hunt, one with courage, cunning, and reason. Rainsford’s initial confusion turns to horror as he slowly realizes that the general now hunts human beings. Zaroff doesn’t understand Rainsford’s indignation but promises that his outrage will subside once he’s begun the hunt. Rainsford declines Zaroff’s invitation to join in the hunt that night and goes to bed. After a fitful night of insomnia and light dozing, the sound of a distant pistol shot awakens him in the early morning.

Zeus was also known as the father of the gods on Mount Olympus and men.
Explanation:
Answer:
In Greek mythology, Medusa (/mɪˈdjuːzə, -sə/; Μέδουσα "guardian, protectress")[1] also called Gorgo, was one of the three monstrous Gorgons, generally described as winged human females with living venomous snakes in place of hair. It is in the Roman poet Ovid’s Metamorphoses that her story is most deeply elaborated. She was lovely, according to the poem—until she and Poseidon had sex in Athena’s temple.[2] Athena then punished her for this violation, by turning her into the monstrous, stony-glanced creature that we know. Thus those who gazed into her eyes would turn to stone. Most sources describe her as the daughter of Phorcys and Ceto,[3] although the author Hyginus makes her the daughter of Gorgon and Ceto.[4]
Medusa was beheaded by the Greek hero Perseus, who thereafter used her head, which retained its ability to turn onlookers to stone, as a weapon[5] until he gave it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield. In classical antiquity the image of the head of Medusa appeared in the evil-averting device known as the Gorgoneion.
According to Hesiod and Aeschylus, she lived and died on an island named Sarpedon, somewhere near Cisthene. The 2nd-century BC novelist Dionysios Skytobrachion puts her somewhere in Libya, where Herodotus had said the Berbers originated her myth, as part of their religion. She remained a priestess to Athena after her death and was risen with fresh hair.
