Why is Neel’s grandfather’s book important?

Julie read To Kill a Mockingbird and Romeo and Juliet, the assigned literature for English I, and decided to write a short
narrative with a theme related to parental influence on children's lives.
Which of the following provides a conclusion (after sentence 27) that best reflects what has been observed about Mrs.
Schaefer from the narrator's point of view? Click here to read Julie's "To the Beach."

A) "I can hardly wait until the weather reporters try to explain it," Mrs. Schaefer responded animatedly. "Any tropical storm-past,
present, or future-has seldom been known for bringing good luck!"

This is the best conclusion because it point out that, like many parents, Cathy's mom was inclined to add her comments.

B) Mrs. Schaefer was speechless. Then she thought of how Mrs. Greer would howl when she got the news of Debbie's new way of
seeking fame-as a storm!

Because most of what readers learn about Mrs. Schaefer is told through narration, this conclusion is best.

C) Mrs. Schaefer grinned, her expression a familiar one to Debbie. After all, how would the girls have ever gone forward with their plans
for a beach vacation if it weren't for Cathy's mom?

their plans.

D ) "To have the chance to test the elements is one thing." Mrs. Schaefer chortled, "but having your name chosen is definitely a positive
sign. Why not bring a shovel
to dig for treasure in case this becomes a wave of good fortune?

What is most likely the reason Lincoln repeats his declaration that "all persons held as slaves . . . shall be . . . free" in his Emancipation Proclamation?

because time has passed since Lincoln’s initial proposal to emancipate slaves, he must differentiate between the two proposals

because Lincoln wishes to test what he assumes is the rhetorical power of repetition when addressing the nation’s citizens, Lincoln uses it effectively in this declaration

because Lincoln first offered a deadline for pro-slavery states to return to Union control, he repeats the main points of that order

Read the epitaphs of Mr. and Mrs. Purkapile from the Spoon River Anthology and answer the question that follows.
Mrs. Purkapile

HE ran away and was gone for a year.
When he came home he told me the silly story
Of being kidnapped by pirates on Lake Michigan
And kept in chains so he could not write me.
I pretended to believe it, though I knew very well
What he was doing, and that he met
The milliner, Mrs. Williams, now and then
When she went to the city to buy goods, as she said.
But a promise is a promise
And marriage is marriage,
And out of respect for my own character
I refused to be drawn into a divorce
By the scheme of a husband who had merely grown tired
Of his marital vow and duty.

Mr. Purkapile

SHE loved me.
Oh! how she loved me I never had a chance to escape
From the day she first saw me.
But then after we were married I thought
She might prove her mortality and let me out,
Or she might divorce me. But few die, none resign.
Then I ran away and was gone a year on a lark.
But she never complained. She said all would be well
That I would return. And I did return.
I told her that while taking a row in a boat
I had been captured near Van Buren Street
By pirates on Lake Michigan,
And kept in chains, so I could not write her.
She cried and kissed me, and said it was cruel,
Outrageous, inhuman! I then concluded our marriage
Was a divine dispensation
And could not be dissolved,
Except by death.
I was right.

Recall Benjamin Franklin said, "Good wives usually make good husbands" and "The likeliest Way, either to obtain a good Husband, or to keep one so, is to be Good yourself."
