Read the excerpt from Chapter 4.
Anne of Green Gables
by Lucy Maud Montgomery
Matthew Cuthbert and his sister Marilla had decided to adopt a boy to help on their farm called Green Gables. When a girl, Anne, arrives, they are surprised. In this excerpt, Anne has just awoken after her first night at Green Gables.
Anne could evidently be smart to some purpose for she was down-stairs in ten minutes’ time, with her clothes neatly on, her hair brushed and braided, her face washed, and a comfortable consciousness pervading her soul that she had fulfilled all Marilla’s requirements. As a matter of fact, however, she had forgotten to turn back the bedclothes.
“I’m pretty hungry this morning,” she announced as she slipped into the chair Marilla placed for her. “The world doesn’t seem such a howling wilderness as it did last night. I’m so glad it’s a sunshiny morning. But I like rainy mornings real well, too. All sorts of mornings are interesting, don’t you think? You don’t know what’s going to happen through the day, and there’s so much scope for imagination. But I’m glad it’s not rainy today because it’s easier to be cheerful and bear up under affliction on a sunshiny day. I feel that I have a good deal to bear up under. It’s all very well to read about sorrows and imagine yourself living through them heroically, but it’s not so nice when you really come to have them, is it?”
“For pity’s sake hold your tongue,” said Marilla. “You talk entirely too much for a little girl.”
Thereupon Anne held her tongue so obediently and thoroughly that her continued silence made Marilla rather nervous, as if in the presence of something not exactly natural. Matthew also held his tongue,—but this was natural,—so that the meal was a very silent one.
As it progressed Anne became more and more abstracted, eating mechanically, with her big eyes fixed unswervingly and unseeingly on the sky outside the window. This made Marilla more nervous than ever; she had an uncomfortable feeling that while this odd child’s body might be there at the table her spirit was far away in some remote airy cloudland, borne aloft on the wings of imagination. Who would want such a child about the place?
Yet Matthew wished to keep her, of all unaccountable things! Marilla felt that he wanted it just as much this morning as he had the night before, and that he would go on wanting it. That was Matthew’s way—take a whim into his head and cling to it with the most amazing silent persistency—a persistency ten times more potent and effectual in its very silence than if he had talked it out.
When the meal was ended Anne came out of her reverie and offered to wash the dishes.
“Can you wash dishes right?” asked Marilla distrustfully.
“Pretty well. I’m better at looking after children, though. I’ve had so much experience at that. It’s such a pity you haven’t any here for me to look after.”
“I don’t feel as if I wanted any more children to look after than I’ve got at present. You’re problem enough in all conscience. What’s to be done with you I don’t know. Matthew is a most ridiculous man.”
“I think he’s lovely,” said Anne reproachfully. “He is so very sympathetic. He didn’t mind how much I talked—he seemed to like it. I felt that he was a kindred spirit as soon as ever I saw him.”
“You’re both queer enough, if that’s what you mean by kindred spirits,” said Marilla with a sniff. “Yes, you may wash the dishes. Take plenty of hot water, and be sure you dry them well. I’ve got enough to attend to this morning for I’ll have to drive over to White Sands in the afternoon and see Mrs. Spencer. You’ll come with me and we’ll settle what’s to be done with you. After you’ve finished the dishes go up-stairs and make your bed.”
Anne washed the dishes deftly enough, as Marilla who kept a sharp eye on the process, discerned. Later on she made her bed less successfully, for she had never learned the art of wrestling with a feather tick. But it was done somehow and smoothed down; and then Marilla, to get rid of her, told her she might go out-of-doors and amuse herself until dinner time.
In Anne of Green Gables, how does Anne respond to the events on her first morning at Green Gables?
She gets ready for breakfast quickly.
She announces that she is not hungry.
She feels sad to be in an unfamiliar place.
She talks to Matthew but not Marilla.

Explanation:
Read these two paragraphs from a science course, looking for similarities in how the paragraphs are organized.
Light
Light passes through some materials without scattering. We call objects of this kind transparent. Clear glass and clear plastic wrap are two transparent objects. Other objects, such as wax paper or frosted glass, let some light through but scatter or block the rest. These objects are translucent. Then there are opaque objects, which do not let any light through. Opaque objects block all light. Instead, they produce shadows on a surface when an object prevents light from reaching that surface. You are an opaque object. So is a wooden door, a refrigerator, or a moose.
Sound
Sound travels in waves that are produced when something vibrates. Sound waves are invisible—we cannot see the movement of sound through the air with our eyes. Unlike light, sound needs a medium, something to travel through. Sounds can move through solids like walls or clothing, liquids such as water, or gases such as air. Walls, water, and air are all examples of different media through which sound travels.
Both paragraphs describe how a type of energy moves, or travels. How are the structures of the paragraphs alike? Choose the answer that best compares the structures of the two paragraphs.
A. One paragraph starts with a concept while the other paragraph starts with an example.
B. Both paragraphs start with a general statement about how the energy form moves—then they get more specific.
C. Both paragraphs are about a form of energy that we use in our daily lives without thinking about it.
D. One paragraph is about light and objects that interact with light; the other is about sound.
Answer:
is down below in explanation
Explanation:
Objects vary in how they transmit light. Transparent objects allow light to travel through them. Materials like air, water, and clear glass are called transparent. When light encounters transparent materials, almost all of it passes directly through them. Glass, for example, is transparent to all visible light.
Translucent objects allow some light to travel through them. Materials like frosted glass and some plastics are called translucent. When light strikes translucent materials, only some of the light passes through them. The light does not pass directly through the materials. It changes direction many times and is scattered as it passes through. Therefore, we cannot see clearly through them and objects on the other side of a translucent object appear fuzzy and unclear.
Opaque objects block light from traveling through them. Most of the light is either reflected by the object or absorbed and converted to thermal energy. Materials such as wood, stone, and metals are opaque to visible light

in what ways do interest groups influence the government?
Ill give brainlest to best answer
Answer:Interest groups influence government using variants on one of two strategies, the inside game and the outside game. The inside gamerefers to attempts to persuade government officials through direct inside contact. Another term for the inside game is lobbying.Washington is filled with thousands of lobbyists, covering every imaginable issue and viewpoint. Lobbyists usually work for interest groups, corporations, or law firms that specialize in professional lobbying.The Origin of LobbyingThe term lobbying comes from the way interest groups played the inside game in the nineteenth century. Many members of Congress and other government officials would gather and eat together at the Willard Hotel in Washington, D.C. People seeking to influence the government waited for the members in the lobby of the hotel, talking to them as they came in and out.Successful LobbyingTo lobby successfully, interest groups need a great deal of money. Washington, D.C., is one of the most expensive cities in America, so simply maintaining an office there can be very costly. Interest groups also pay for meals, trips, and other operational expenses, which can be significant. Money alone does not make an interest group influential, but a lack of money is usually crippling. Lobbyists also need to be reputable because a lobbyist who lies to a member of Congress, for instance, could be shunned or lose clients. Therefore, being honest is in the best interest of lobbyists.Sponsored Content7 Magic Experiences to Have at Walt Disney WorldBy Walt Disney WorldTargets of LobbyingLobbyists try to influence officials working in all three branches and in the federal bureaucracy.Interest groups spend hundreds of millions of dollars a year to lobby members of Congress on a range of issues. These groups try to affect the legislation being generated in Congress. Sometimes lobbyist speak with congresspeople directly, but lobbyists also testify at congressional hearings. The Senate publishes ethics guidelines to explain the complex federal laws that govern the interaction among congresspeople and lobbyists. Many corporations and foreign countries donate money to interest groups and thus help sponsor lobbyists in Washington.LOBBYING THE EXECUTIVE BRANCHAlthough some lobbyists have direct access to the president, most have access only to the lower levels of the executive branch. Interest groups particularly target regulatory agencies, which have the ability to set policy affecting commerce and trade throughout the country. Some scholars have claimed that lobbying of regulatory agencies has resulted in agency capture, effectively handing control of the agency over to the industries it was intended to regulate.LOBBYING THE JUDICIAL BRANCHInterest groups work to influence the courts in a number of ways. Interest groups often file amicus curiae (friend of the court) briefs,presenting an argument in favor of a particular issue. Sometimes interest groups file lawsuits against the government or other parties. For example, the NAACP worked for years to bring civil rights cases to the Supreme Court. The American Civil Liberties Union also makes extensive use of the courts.
Explanation:
have a nice day
Answer:
Interest groups speak in favour of themselves. By this, I mean that interest groups will attempt to persuade the government to pass legislations that would benefit them. They bring facts and aspects that could improve the economy but it would most greatly benefit the voices in the interest groups.

Read the excerpt from The Secret Garden:
“Why does it make you angry when you are looked at?” she inquired one day.
“I always hated it,” he answered, “even when I was very little. Then when they took me to the seaside, and I used to lie in my carriage everybody used to stare and ladies would stop and talk to my nurse, and then they would begin to whisper, and I knew then they were saying I shouldn’t live to grow up. Then sometimes the ladies would pat my cheeks and say ‘Poor child!’ Once when a lady did that I screamed out loud and bit her hand. She was so frightened she ran away.”
“She thought you had gone mad like a dog,” said Mary, not at all admiringly.
“I don’t care what she thought,” said Colin, frowning.

Which sentence uses the active voice?
A)The hollow log was often used by animals looking for shelter.
B)The deer leaped gracefully over the rabbit and ran into the forest.
C)The rabbit was cornered in a hollow log by a hungry fox.
D)A tremendous leap was performed by the fox as it went over the log.
Answer: C) The rabbit was cornered in a hollow log by a hungry fox.
Explanation:
Well, what does active voice mean? It means that the sentence tells us what the subject of the sentence is doing. Now, all of these sentences tell us movement about a subject, so what makes active voice different?
Active voice is usually in the order of subject, verb, then object. Let us break down the options and see which one applies. Passive voice is the opposite, it goes object, verb, then subject.
✗ - A) The hollow log was often used by animals looking for shelter.
hollow log = object, used by = verb, animals looking for shelter = subject
✗ - B) The deer leaped gracefully over the rabbit and ran into the forest.
The deer = subject, leaped gracefully over = verb, the rabbit = object, and ran into the forest = also a verb
✓ - C) The rabbit was cornered in a hollow log by a hungry fox.
The rabbit = subject, cornered in a hollow log = verb, by a hungry fox = object.
✗ - D) A tremendous leap was performed by the fox as it went over the log.
A tremendous leap = verb, performed by the fox = subject, as it went over the log = object
The answer to your question is option C, "The rabbit was cornered in a hollow log by a hungry fox."

Which sentence is the concluding sentence?
Which sentence does not support the topic of the paragraph?
Answer:
Which sentence is the topic sentence? 3
Which sentence is the concluding sentence? 4
Which sentence does not support the topic of the paragraph? 7
Explanation:
It's very simple to understand, The conclusion sentence should either restate the topic sentence or just wrap everything up. It makes the most sense that the topic sentence is 3 because it's a generic sentence, whereas the other sentences are supporting details. If the topic of the paragraph is 3, 7 is the sentence that does not support that topic.

Explanation:
Sherlock Holmes listened to the tale and agreed to visit the crime scene. The safe was open and empty, but it was not damaged. There was no visible entry into the room where the safe was kept: the windows were sealed, and the door was not damaged. Mrs. Blakely led Sherlock Holmes farther into the house and stopped in the middle of a hallway of old portraits. There were no windows, and the only door was at the other end of the hallway.
"This spot is where I found the black mask," Mrs. Blakely explained.
Sherlock Holmes inspected the hallway with a wrinkled brow. He walked up and down the hallway. He put his hand on the smooth floor. Then, Sherlock's brow smoothed and a glint entered his eyes. Turning to the wall, he pressed the expensive portrait into the wall.
"What are you doing to my painting?" Mrs. Blakely gasped.
