Read the excerpt from “The Lottery.” Soon the men began to gather, surveying their own children, speaking of planting and rain, tractors and taxes. They stood together, away from the pile of stones in the corner, and their jokes were quiet and they smiled rather than laughed. The women, wearing faded house dresses and sweaters, came shortly after their menfolk. They greeted one another and exchanged bits of gossip as they went to join their husbands. Soon the women, standing by their husbands, began to call to their children, and the children came reluctantly, having to be called four or five times. Bobby Martin ducked under his mother's grasping hand and ran, laughing, back to the pile of stones. His father spoke up sharply, and Bobby came quickly and took his place between his father and his oldest brother. Explain what is learned by the actions of the characters in the excerpt. The lottery was a happy occasion because the men told jokes, the children laughed, and the women were able to exchange gossip. The lottery may not have been a happy occasion because the men smiled rather than laughed, and the children were apparently very hesitant to join their families when it started. Most of the villagers were indifferent about the lottery since it was held every year, and they already knew the outcome this time. Most of the villagers were ready to do away with the lottery since it was an outdated custom, carried over from years past.

judgement in developmentally appropriate practice?
ก 1
A. Two properly trained teachers would make the same judgment about a
given situation.
B. Judgments are based on what teachers know about children's family
and community relationship.
C. Judgments involve interpretations.
D. Judgment are based on what teachers know about child development.

Answers

C is the correct answer

When judgments incorporate interpretations, they do not play the part of the judgment in developmentally appropriate practice. So, option (C) is not true and is the correct answer.

What are practices that are developmentally appropriate?

A research-based framework called developmentally appropriate practice (DAP) describes "best practices" for the early childhood setting that promote young children's learning and development.

DAP encourages you to consider kids as unique beings who develop and flourish at their own pace.

It aids teachers in considering how to adapt activities and lessons to the interests and developmental requirements of a certain kid.

Knowledge of development and learning, understanding of particular children, and knowledge of the cultural and social environments in which children learn and develop are the three main pillars of the DAP.

As a result, option (C) is the correct answer,  proving the remaining options are the role of DAP.

Read the passage from "The Salem (and Other) Witch Hunts,” which is an informational text about witch hunts in the late 1600s.



The sentencing of Bridget Bishop, the first victim of the witch trials, was typical of the Salem justice. Bishop was accused of not living "a Puritan lifestyle" because she wore black clothing. Her coat had been found to be oddly "cut or torn in two ways,” and her behavior was regarded as "immoral.” Thus convicted of witchcraft, she was tried on June 10, 1692, and executed by hanging the same day.



Immediately following this execution, the court adjourned for 20 days and asked for advice from New England's most influential ministers "upon the state of things as they then stood.” A mere five days later, they produced a voluble answer penned by Cotton Mather, the prolific pamphleteer of the period, assuring the court and the grand jury that they had done well.

The prominent ministers "humbly recommend[ed]" more of the same: that is, "the speedy and vigorous prosecution of such as have rendered themselves obnoxious, according to the direction given in the laws of God, and the wholesome statutes of the English nation . . . ”

More people were accused, arrested and examined, but historians believe that by September 1692 the hysteria had begun to abate and public opinion turned against the trials.

Which text structure supports the idea that the sentencing was swift and the hysteria surrounding the witch hunts was relatively short-lived?

sequence
comparison-contrast
cause-effect
problem-solution

Answers

Answer:

The text structure which supports the idea that the sentencing was swift and the hysteria surrounding the witch hunts was relatively short-lived is:

A. sequence.

Explanation:

The two points or topics presented and discussed in the passage are precisely those: the quickness in sentencing the accused, and the fact that the witch hunts did not last for long. However, the two topics are not connected. One is not the consequence of the other. One is not the solution for the other. One is not compared to the other. That is why the author chooses to use a structure that relies on sequencing the events. Dates are mentioned with that purpose:

- in June 10 of 1692 there was the first trial;

- the sentencing in that one as well as others was always fast;

- by September of 1962, the public opinion was already against the trials.

We have basically a sequence of events above. What the author is doing, primarily, is saying that first this thing happened, and then this other thing happened.

In civil rights literature, which ideology was often at odds with Black Power
and self-determination?
A. Symbolism
B. Historical context
C. Multiculturalism
D. Abolition

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. Multiculturalism.

Explanation:

 American black literature, virtually ignored before the civil rights movement led by Martin Luther King, Jr. half a century ago, has today become part of America's cultural identity.

As the 1960s began, Americans were becoming consistently permissive and expressive in their sexual and emotional lives, more open and experimental in their responses to literature and art, more playful and outlandish in the styles and ways in which they lived their lives everyday.
