Read this paragraph from I Never Had It Made.
Branch Rickey lost that fight, but when he became the boss of the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1943, he felt the time for equality in baseball had come. He knew that achieving it would be terribly difficult. There would be deep resentment, determined opposition, and perhaps even racial violence. He was convinced he was morally right, and he shrewdly sensed that making the game a truly national one would have healthy financial results. He took his case before the startled directors of the club, and using persuasive eloquence, he won the first battle in what would be a long and bitter campaign. He was voted permission to make the Brooklyn club the pioneer in bringing blacks into baseball.
What is the author’s purpose for including this paragraph?
to inform readers about Branch Rickey’s professional career
to inform readers about Branch Rickey’s determination
Answer:
The author's purpose for including this paragraph is to explain the resistance that Branch Rickey willingly took on in an effort to being the process of ending segregation in Major League Baseball. This paragraph serves to explain that there were people off the field who also helped revolutionize the game.

Read the two excerpts below. The first one is from Captain John Smith's personal account of his rescue by Pocahontas, and the second one is from the children's book The Story of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith published in 1906. Notice how the two accounts differ.
They were ready with their clubs to beat out his brains when Pocahontas, the King's dearest daughter, when no begging could prevail, took his head in her arms, and laid her own head upon his to save him from death.
--from John Smith's personal accounts
But just as the Indian brave was about to strike, his great war club swinging high in the air, Pocahontas rushed forward and threw herself between him and his victim. With her own body she shielded the Captain from harm, for her heart was moved to pity for the stranger, and she could not bear that he should die.
--from The Story of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith
What is the BEST way to describe how these two accounts differ?
Smith's account includes details about why Pocahontas intervened; the children's book does not
Smith's original account is full of emotion; the children's story is lacking in emotion
Smith's original account lacks emotions; the children's story attributes emotions to Pocahontas
Smith's account indicates exactly what Pocahontas said; the children's book leaves this part out
LANGUAGE ARTS QUESTION
The killer clowns Chapter 3
One week after Rosa’s death, the clowns had the world completely under their control.
Estella had just heard the news of Rosa’s death and was devastated. “Oh Rosa,” Estella cried, looking forlorn “Why did you have to mess with Pennywise?” Then she went to a dusty trunk in the corner “I vowed never to open this chest ever again… but I have to save Rosa.” Estella pulled out a dusty spell book and set it on the table. She flipped to the page about bringing people back to life. “The blood of the killer poured into the mouth of the killed shall raise the dead man from his earthy bed.” Estella read. She went to Pennywise’s lair and collected a little bit of his blood.
Later, at the graveyard, Estella was pouring the blood of Pennywise into Rosa’s mouth. Rosa immediately opened her eyes, while her arms grew back, “Estella, where am I? what happened?” Rosa said, looking around. “Rosa, you must kill Pennywise, before EVERYONE dies!” “Ok,” said Rosa “ I will try.” Rosa then went home and gathered her weapons, put her brass knuckles on, and went to Pennywise’s lair.
When she got there, Rosa started to have second thoughts, but she kept on moving. There was blood splattered across the walls, dismembered body parts all over the place, and torture devices on a stage in the far corner. But she kept moving till she got to Pennywise’s throne. “HEY, PENNYWISE” Rosa yelled “ YOU ARE SO UGLY THAT WHEN YOU WERE BORN, THE DOCTOR SLAPPED YOUR MOTHER.” “Rosa” Pennywise snarled “didn’t I kill you already?” Rosa then conjured a whirlwind around her and flew to Pennywise, “yeah and you will have to do it again” she said and then stabbed Pennywise in the heart, took out all of the clowns, and saved anymore innocent people from a cruel death for the clowns entertainment.
the end or is it?
Answer:
Ooh ok, so you're adding supernatural activity to your story now. Things are starting to get more intriguing :D
Also, I really like Rosa's personality and sense of humor. That's a nice touch to an adventure/thriller story, if I do say so myself.
Explanation:
I'm glad that you added another character to the mix, but you really could've done more with her. Not to mention everytime you add someone to your story, you have to at least introduce your readers to them somehow. For example: how does Rosa know Estella? And where did she get the spell book from? You don't have to go into too much detail with her, if you don't want to, but at least some explanation would be nice.
Hope this helps you, I'll probably even give you more tips and heads-ups in comments, when I can think of more. Either way, keep up the good work! :)

Closing: Rain, and others, is a key element in the Earth's water cycle, which is vital to all life on Earth. Rainfall is the main way that the water in the skies comes down to Earth, where it fills our lakes and rivers, recharges the underground aquifers, and provides drinks to plants and animals.
What good thing came out of the
porcupine incident? (hatchet)
Answer:
A porcupine has attacked him with hundreds of painful quills. After pulling all the quills out one by one, Brian cries in misery and loses his will to survive. When he can cry no more, it dawns on him that crying and self-pity accomplish nothing.
Explanation:
Answer: n Chapter 8, Brian wakes up in the middle of the night to a hissing sound and a terrible smell in his little shelter. He thinks it's a snake and throws his hatchet at it. The hatchet misses, hitting the wall and making a shower of sparks, and the creature gets closer. It's not a snake, it's a porcupine. Brian kicks at it, but the porcupine sticks him in the leg with its tail and runs off.
It's while he's pulling the porcupine quills out of his leg that Brian learns what becomes his most important lesson. He's understandably down in the dumps about being stranded and now stung by a porcupine, but then ''he learned the most important rule of survival, which was that feeling sorry for yourself didn't work.'' It won't get the quills out of his leg and won't make fire, so Brian decides to stop it entirely and get to work. Once he's all cried out and quill-free, Brian gets back to sleep.
Brian's Dream
Unlike a lot of Brian's other dreams over the course of Hatchet, the dream he has after getting stung isn't about his mother's affair, or even really about any event from his past. First, Brian sees his father in a living room, making scratching gestures and trying to say something to Brian. Brian is frustrated and can't understand what his father is saying when the dream transitions to a park scene with his friend Terry.

Respond to the following in the form of a short essay. Your essay should consist of at least five paragraphs.
Think about the characteristics of Elizabeth and Darcy at the beginning of the novel and at the end. How do they change throughout the course of the novel? What do you think the author is saying through the development of these characters? In your response, describe the primary features of the characters at the beginning of the novel, the basic process by which they change, and their characteristics at the end of the novel. Then, explain what you think the author is trying to say through the changes in Elizabeth and Darcy.
Cite specific examples from the novel in your response. Use the notes you take and the questions you answer in the Student Guide to help you formulate your response.
You will hand in your completed response on the final day of this unit.
First answer: Darcy and Elizabeth are the main couple that appear on the book Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. Both characters, among their qualities, exhibit some flaws. In fact, both characters are victims to the two flaws mentioned in the title: they are proud and prejudiced.
Darcy is particularly proud, bordering on arrogant. He believes himself to be a worthy gentleman, and thinks little of people he considers to be inferior to him. Elizabeth, on the other hand, is particularly prejudiced, and she is quick to judge others. However, as the two get to know each other, they become more aware of their flaws, and their love helps them become better people.
Second answer :At the beginning of Jane Austen's novel Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Darcy is presented as being proud (and arrogant) while Elizabeth Bennett is decidedly prejudice (she is depicted as being quick to judge others). Furthermore, Darcy is also presented as being prejudiced against people of lower social standing than himself while Elizabeth demonstrates a remarkable measure of personal pride. Over the course of the novel, both Darcy and Elizabeth begin to fall in love with each other and, in turn, realize their own character faults. As she learns about Darcy and his life, she realizes that she is overly judging of others. Darcy, on the other hand, realizes - especially when Elizabeth turns down his initial marital proposal - that he is overly and unreasonably proud and arrogant. Through her depiction of the changes that Elizabeth and Darcy go through, Austen is demonstrating the manner in which love between a couple can shift their understandings of the world and, moreover, themselves.
