Which words from paragraph 8 help readers understand the meaning of the word disarray?

.Answer choices for the above question


building supplies


electric tools


out of plywood


scattered about

Scene 1
[Lights up at a large home improvement store. Dad and Will are loading up on wood, nails, paint, and more. ]

DAD: Plywood, two-by-fours, paint, shingles for the roof, carpeting. ...What else do we need?

WILL: We need stuff to make it weatherproof, and some kind of insulation. And landscaping material.

DAD: Will, there’s no need to landscape. No one’s going to see it behind the house.

WILL: They’ll see it, Dad. It’s their new home—their first home—and it should look good when they get here. They need bushes and grass just like everyone else—more than everyone else. This has to be perfect or they won’t be allowed to live with us.

DAD: Okay, grass and bushes, but later. We have to build this thing first. [He shakes his head in disbelief, but smiles. ]I knew that fostering would be hard work, but this is a ton of effort. Who knew that a couple of little ones would need so much room?

WILL: They can be in the family room with us most of the time, but they need their own space, too. Just like me and Davis. Hey—we need paintbrushes. Davis destroyed ours when he made that volcano for school. [They exit left, happily, as the lights go down. ]

Scene 2
[Lights up in a backyard. The building supplies now litter the stage: sawhorses, electric tools, hammers, and an overflowing toolbox. Will and Dad have built a number of large, flat, square shapes out of plywood. The shapes are scattered about in disarray. ]

WILL: But you said you wanted pliers, Dad—

DAD: Long-nosed pliers, Will. I need to hold this little pin, and I can’t get my fingers in the—

WILL: Here they are—but you could use a screwdriver—

DAD: Got it! Okay, so why don’t we put the floor here? We have to put that in place before we build the walls.

[They carry and then set down a flat piece that has short legs on each corner, making a platform. ]

DAD: Perfect. Now for the walls.

WILL: Are you sure we’re doing this right?

DAD: Pretty sure. [Dad drags another heavy, flat piece of plywood, grunting as he moves it. ]Once we attach the walls, all we have to do is the roof. Pshew. Will—help me with this. You have to hold it upright.

[Dad works to secure the wall. ]

DAD: Great! Only three more and a roof left to go. We have to hustle, though. The little ones are coming home in only a few hours. Will, this is a lot of responsibility, being a foster family. You and your brother will have to step up to the plate and help take care of these little guys. Are you sure you and Davis are ready for this?

WILL: Of course. It was our idea, Dad, remember? We’ll help feed them and bathe them and teach them everything. It’ll be fine .

DAD: Okay. Hand me a new drill bit—I broke the last one in this first wall. No, not those, the thinner ones. No, not those. ...

[They continue to struggle with the building as the lights go down. ]

Scene 3
[Lights up as Dad and Will stand center stage, close together to block the sight of their finished project. Will yells and waves to Mom and Davis offstage right. ]

WILL: We’re back here!

DAVIS: [He enters, leading a large, curly-haired dog. ]Wait until you see them—I love them already! They couldn’t wait to come home and—you built them a doghouse!

WILL: ta-DA! [Will reveals the doghouse. ]

DAVIS: That’s awesome!

MOM: Here they are! [Mom enters with a large box, the top open. She sets it down carefully. ]Now, remember, the puppies are here only until they get adopted into forever homes. As foster parents, we have to teach them how to be good dogs and then say goodbye to them when the time comes.

WILL: [Lifting out a puppy. ]Come see your new home! [Pauses and looks at the doghouse. ]Uh, Dad? We forgot to make a door!!

[Lights out. ]

Superhero 101: A Dog's Day

Trace was still thinking about the conversation with his grandmother when he stopped so abruptly that Liam literally collided with him. “Hey, what gives?” Liam asked. “You were this close to wearing my ice cream in your hair. Why’d you stop?”

Tia and Blade had continued walking, but now they were headed back toward their friends to find out why they had stopped. Blade immediately noticed Trace’s countenance and followed his gaze. She was the most intuitive and observant of the group. Suddenly, she gasped.

“What is wrong with you two?” Liam, who was more interested in saving his ice cream than saving the world, asked before they had a chance to explain.

Trace spoke in hushed tones, “Look, over there. It’s Casper. He’s supposed to be in prison. What is he doing at the pet store?”

Liam and Tia looked toward the pet store as the four friends dodged into an alleyway, trying not to look too conspicuous. Casper was obviously in disguise himself with his dyed brown hair and beard. The last thing the group needed was for Casper to realize that he had been spotted by his nemesis. The last time he and Trace had met, Trace and his friends had thwarted Casper's plot to create a deadly toxin designed to help him take over the world. That was three months ago, and now it looked like he had somehow escaped from prison and was up to something equally menacing and ominous.

Casper was leaving the pet store and getting into a car, so the friends hurried to their car. They followed him to an abandoned pet-food manufacturing plant at the edge of town. Once Casper ducked inside, the four friends did the same but were soon confronted by an angry pack of dogs. Trace motioned for his friends to come close to him as he created a shield around them. He remembered the time when Tia had used her superpower to make the group invisible. They had been running from Casper and his henchmen. “Tia, make us invisible!” Trace shouted.

However, the friends’ scent wasn’t invisible, and the dogs could not be deterred. The dogs followed the friends as they made their way to where Casper appeared to be manufacturing something that smelled awful.

calamities of war, by every decent method which wisdom could Invent. Neither have I so much of the infidel in me, as to suppose that He
has relinquished the government of the world, and given us up to the care of devils; and as I do not, I cannot see on what grounds the king
of Britain can look up to heaven for help against us: a common murderer, a highwayman, or a house-breaker, has as good a pretence as he.

Answers

Answers and Explanation:

Readers were aware of the irony of Swift's text because of the absurd proposals he presented in addition to the strong sarcasm and acid and direct criticism of rich society. Swift reveals his satirical intentions as soon as he says that eating the babies of poor mothers would be the solution to Ireland's hunger, because it would allow food for the rich people and money for the poor people who would sell their children. In addition, he reveals strong satirical criticism when he states that the meat of infant children will be highly appreciated by wealthy Englishmen and Iranians.
