APRIL 25. Even the morning air is sultry today. I would have fished for my breakfast last night before sunset, but I knew that it would surely spoil before morning. Drinking my water warm has taken some getting used to. It’s funny how we take certain things like ice for granted. If I become desperate I can always resort to eating the freeze dried rations, but that defeats my purpose for being here to begin with. Besides, they are about as edible as the tough, dry bark in a long dead tree. I think I have almost learned to track the time by the rays of the sun. Time, like water, seems to sit in a pot unable to boil if your eye isn’t constantly on it. Time seems to be the only thing that man hasn’t learned to control; but I am sure some genius like Fred Johnson is currently working on it, while sitting in a cubicle checking the four thousand emails on his smart phone. As for me, I think I will lean back on this dune and nap a while before I head out to catch some lunch.

25 DE ABRIL. Incluso el aire de la mañana es sensual hoy. Hubiera pescado mi desayuno anoche antes del atardecer, pero sabía que seguramente se echaría a perder antes del amanecer. Me ha costado un poco beber agua tibia. Es curioso cómo damos por sentado ciertas cosas como el hielo. Si me desespero, siempre puedo recurrir a comer las raciones liofilizadas, pero eso, para empezar, frustra mi propósito de estar aquí. Además, son casi tan comestibles como la corteza dura y seca de un árbol largo y muerto. Creo que casi he aprendido a rastrear el tiempo por los rayos del sol. El tiempo, como el agua, parece estar en una olla que no puede hervir si su ojo no está constantemente en él. El tiempo parece ser lo único que el hombre no ha aprendido a controlar; pero estoy seguro de que algún genio como Fred Johnson está trabajando actualmente en eso, mientras está sentado en un cubículo revisando los cuatro mil correos electrónicos en su teléfono inteligente. En cuanto a mí, creo que me recostaré en esta duna y tomaré una siesta antes de salir a almorzar.

What compound-complex sentence can be formed from the underlined section of the passage? Learning a language can be a difficult and useful hobby; I’ve tried it. Learning a language can be difficult; it is one of the most useful hobbies I’ve tried. Learning a language can be difficult, it is one of the most useful hobbies I’ve tried. Learning a language can be difficult, yet it is one of the most useful hobbies that I’ve tried.
Answer:
The compound-complex sentence that can be formed from the underlined section is:
D. Learning a language can be difficult, yet it is one of the most useful hobbies that I’ve tried.
Explanation:
This is the only option that has a compound-complex sentence.
A compound-complex sentence is formed by two independent clauses and a dependent one. Independent clauses have a subject and a predicate and are capable of expressing a complete thought on their own. On the other hand, a dependent or subordinate clause is formed by a subject and a verb and starts with a subordinate conjunction or a relative pronoun. A subordinate clause does not express a full idea on its own.
Let's break the sentence down just to visualize it better:
1. Learning a language can be difficult - independent clause.
2. yet it is one of the most useful hobbies - independent clause. "Yet" is a coordinating conjunction.
3. that I’ve tried - dependent/subordinate clause. "That" is a relative pronoun.
Answer:
D

Book 12 Odysseus summary
Answer:Odysseus returns to Aeaea, where he buries Elpenor and spends one last night with Circe. She describes the obstacles that he will face on his voyage home and tells him how to negotiate them. As he sets sail, Odysseus passes Circe’s counsel on to his men. They approach the island of the lovely Sirens, and Odysseus, as instructed by Circe, plugs his men’s ears with beeswax and has them bind him to the mast of the ship. He alone hears their song flowing forth from the island, promising to reveal the future. The Sirens’ song is so seductive that Odysseus begs to be released from his fetters, but his faithful men only bind him tighter.
Once they have passed the Sirens’ island, Odysseus and his men must navigate the straits between Scylla and Charybdis. Scylla is a six-headed monster who, when ships pass, swallows one sailor for each head. Charybdis is an enormous whirlpool that threatens to swallow the entire ship. As instructed by Circe, Odysseus holds his course tight against the cliffs of Scylla’s lair. As he and his men stare at Charybdis on the other side of the strait, the heads of Scylla swoop down and gobble up six of the sailors.
Odysseus next comes to Thrinacia, the island of the Sun. He wants to avoid it entirely, but the outspoken Eurylochus persuades him to let his beleaguered crew rest there. A storm keeps them beached for a month, and at first the crew is content to survive on its provisions in the ship. When these run out, however, Eurylochus persuades the other crew members to disobey Odysseus and slaughter the cattle of the Sun. They do so one afternoon as Odysseus sleeps; when the Sun finds out, he asks Zeus to punish Odysseus and his men. Shortly after the Achaeans set sail from Thrinacia, Zeus kicks up another storm, which destroys the ship and sends the entire crew to its death beneath the waves. As had been predicted, only Odysseus survives, and he just barely. The storm sweeps him all the way back to Charybdis, which he narrowly escapes for the second time. Afloat on the broken timbers of his ship, he eventually reaches Ogygia, Calypso’s island. Odysseus here breaks from his story, stating to the Phaeacians that he sees no reason to repeat to them his account of his experience on Ogygia.
What are three differences between the Twelve Angry Men book and the movie made in 1997 based off of it? Help is appreciated, as I don't have time to watch the movie before it's due.
Answer:
1. The movie puts you more in the vision of the jurors at times. Ways they do that is by moving the camera like you are walking through the building. This is different then reading their lines in the play from a possibly more detached perspective.
2. The movie actually shows the boy, rather than how you only read mentions of him in the book. This possibly humanizes him more to the watcher or possibly makes them think more on if he actually did it based on looking at him.
3. The movie also possibly shows more of Juror 3's reactions and emotions than reading them in a play had done, like how he quietly walks out the door with the torn-up photo of his son left behind, which helps the watcher understand why he changes his mind in the end and generally enhances his character.
Explanation:
I think you should watch the movie maybe, just to see it, I suppose.

When Charlotte Brontë set out to write the novel Jane Eyre, she
was determined to create a main character who challenged the notion
of the ideal Victorian woman, or as Brontë was once quoted: “a heroine
as plain and as small as myself (Gaskell, Chapter XV).” Brontë’s
determination to portray a plain yet passionate young woman who
defied the stereotype of the docile and domestic Victorian feminine
ideal most likely developed from her own dissatisfaction with domestic
duties and a Victorian culture that discouraged women from having
literary aspirations. There were many expectations and limitations
placed on Victorian women. Considering Brontë’s position and her
desire for literary achievement given that context, we are able to see
why she felt compelled to write Jane Eyre and to publish it under a
male pen name, Currer Bell.
During an era in which etiquette guides circulated freely, empire
waists gave way to tiny-waisted corsets, and tea parties grew in
Empire waists: a style of dress fitting just below the bust, leaving the waist and hips
undefined, that became fashionable in the early 19th century.
popularity, it might seem unlikely that realistic novels would set the
Victorian literary trend. Perhaps the socially conscious novel may have
been a result of the belief of the rising middle class of Victorian England
in the possibility for change, since they had witnessed such economic
changes in their lifetimes. Works such as Charles Dickens’ Hard Times,
George Eliot’s [another woman using a male pen name] Middlemarch
and Charlotte Brontë’s own sister Emily’s Wuthering Heights [published
under Ellis Bell instead of Emily Brontë,] featured female characters that
represented trapped and repressed Victorian women marrying for the
wrong reasons, disillusioned with family life, and relying on their
physical beauty as a means to gain attention and advancement.
And then, along came the character Jane Eyre: physically
uninteresting yet passionate and intense in her desire to express her
emotions and thoughts. It is no wonder that Currer Bell’s novel was
considered groundbreaking and bold. Jane is a heroine battling the
same societal limitations as her literary counterparts, but her raw
narrative voice never fails to expose her Romantic sensibilities,
psychological depth, and her adamant desire to stay true to herself.

2. Reread lines 51-63 Identify two types of horror stories. What is Russell's
purpose for describing the two types of stories?
(Horror genre)
Answer:
The two types of horror stories described in lines 51-63 are:
Stories that deals with parallel world.Stories that seems supernatural but have natural explanations.Russell's purpose for describing the two types of stories is to support her claim of 'what horror genre is to her'?
Explanation:
'What is Horror Genre?' is a literary criticism by Sharon A. Russell. In her literary criticism Sharon describes the way how she analyze a horror genre.
Sharon was the first one to analyze Stephen King's work, in this study, she aids readers how to evaluate and analyze horror genre, as she did.
In lines 51-63, Russell identifies two types of horror stories.
First are those stories that deal with parallel world. In such stories, readers tend to believe the world as it is, without any question. To support this claim, Russell gives an example of children's fiction 'The Wizard of Oz' by L. Frank Baum. She asserts that the world represented in the Oz is accepted by the readers just as it is without any question. This is the first type of horror stories or genre.
The second one are those stories that seems to be supernatural but have natural explanations. To elaborate this type of story, Russell exemplifies by stating that in such stories objects take the role of supernatural.
The purpose of Russell to describe these two stories is to support her main idea of the text. As she is trying to exemplify 'What is horror genre?' to her, she is elaborating her points using supportive examples.
