On Wiesel's Night
I cannot teach this book. Instead,
I drop copies on their desks,
like bombs on sleeping towns,
and let them read. So do I, again.
The stench rises from the page
and chokes my throat.
The ghosts of burning babies
haunt my eyes.
And that bouncing baton
that pointer of Death,
stabs me in the heart
as it sends his mother
to the
blackening sky
Nothing is
the laws
of
science say,
only changed
The millions transformed into
precious smoke ride the wind
to fill our lungs and hearts
with their cries.
No, I cannot teach this book.
I simply want the words
to burn their comfortable souls
and leave them scarred for life.

The Gettysburg Address

"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."

Answers

Answer: 4) Our purpose is to see this war through and to win it for justice

Explanation: Lincoln states in the address " It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, " this means that they shall not fail nor surrender simply from fear, but will persevere and try with all their strength to bring justice to those killed and peace to a divided nation.

What conclusion about Stone can you draw based on these two excerpts?
A she is proud of what teachers, seamstresses, and housekeepers have achieved.
OB. She is pleased with the strides women have made over 50 years.
OC. She still wants women to feel disappointed by their limitations.
OD. She is glad that women have finally achieved the right to vote.

Answers

Answer: B. She is pleased with the strides women have made over 50 years.

Explanation:

The excerpts in question show that Lucy Stone was proud of how far women had come in the 50 years since they started actively pushing for women's rights in the very conservative political environment of the 1800s.

Lucy Stone was one of the foremost leaders of the women's rights movement in the 1800s and was a key player in the first National Women's Rights Convention. She gave speeches and wrote extensively to show people why it was important that women had more rights in society and when she was close to death in 1893, was pleased at how far the movement had come.

As a result of the war, Finland lost 11 percent of its land to the Soviet Union and Vyborg, its second largest city.

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.

The Road not Taken
by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
