Answer:
Throughout the passage, the shift in the physical description of the landlady does impact the story's meaning. At first, when you hear what the landlady looks like, you'll think that she's not at all "wrong in the head", but as you progress through the story, the landlady morphs into a detrimental woman. When Billy sees the landlady at the start, he thinks that she " looked exactly like the mother of one’s best school-friend welcoming one into the house to stay for the Christmas holidays (29)". He basically thinks that she's just a kind woman who won't do him any harm. Later, "he caught a whiff of a peculiar smell that seemed to emanate26 directly from her person. It was not in the least unpleasant, and it reminded him — well, he wasn’t quite sure what it reminded him of. Pickled walnuts? New leather? Or was it the corridors of a hospital? (78)". He thought that she was "dotty", but he didn't care, nor does he really pay any close attention to how she acted or looked. All he thought was since she invited him to a place to stay for a good amount of money, she was welcoming and inviting, therefore, he assumed that she was innocent and not at all "wrong in the head". In the beginning, we all thought that this was going to be an innocent story where Billy enters a house and a landlady allows him to stay there. The landlady would mind her own business and be polite and Billy would be safe and just be there for a tiny bit, all happy and everything would be just fine. But no. As the story reveals more, it gets more twisted and dark. The landlady turns out to be purposefully poisoning Billy with tea and probably stuffing him later. All things will turn for a deadly end

Although it was not suited to solving his immediate problem, Silver felt the unusual adhesive might have some commercial value, and so he demonstrated it to various colleagues, including Fry. At the time, no one had come up with a use for it, and so the formula for the weak adhesive was filed away – until the Monday morning when Fry came to work with the idea of making sticky bookmarks that could also be removed without damaging the book. —The Evolution of Useful Things, Henry Petroski Which pair of phrases signals the passage of time? Although it was not suited . . . Silver felt. . . . Silver felt . . . and so he demonstrated it. . . . At the time . . . until the Monday morning. . . . . . . until the Monday morning . . . that could also be. . . .
Answer:
c) At the time...until the Monday morning
Explanation:
Time is one of the story's setting parts. It is important to know when something happened, when it finished, how long it lasted etc.
Time period can be as only as few minutes long, but it can only stretch up to few years. This can be helpful in setting the story's dynamics.
In order to know about the passage of time, we need to have at least two "time stamps".
In this particular excerpt, we have "at the time" denoting a moment in time when no one found he use for the adhesive, and "until the Monday morning" denoting another moment in time, different from the previous, when Fry came up with the idea for the use of the adhesive.
These two phrases signal the passage of time since they denote two different moments in time.

Explanation:
Write a character study of either Raymond or Gretchen from “Raymond’s Run.” Create a list of character traits and supporting evidence from the story to help you gather information about your selected character. You may choose to create an organizer like the example below. Evidence from the Story Character Trait Use the information from your organizer to write your character study. In your study, identify three adjectives that describe your chosen character. Define each adjective and explain why you chose each one as a character trait. Consider the following questions as you determine the character traits you will discuss: What does this character want very badly? What are they willing to do to get it? What is the consequence of this desire? What does this desire tell us about the character? Your character study should be approximately 200 words long, and should be written in paragraph form.
One thing we know about Raymond, then, is that he is oblivious to the trouble and potential trouble around him. Of course this ensures that he is a happy boy who is content to live in his own world.
During the race, Squeaky is surprised to see Raymond running along with her on the other side of the fence,
with his arms down to his side and the palms tucked up behind him, running in his very own style, and it’s the first time I ever saw that and I almost stop to watch my brother Raymond on his first run.

Do you agree or disagree with the statement “good fences make good neighbors”?
Answer:
Disagree
Explanation:
A good fence has nothing to do with how kind your neighbors are. A bad neighbor can still have a good fence.
Answer:
I whole heatedly agree, I'm an introvert so I don't really like talking to people in real life. I enjoy my privacy and hate nosey neighbors. I enjoy talking to people on the internet, because for the most part, I can talk to them anonymously. But yes, good fences make good neighbors.

Explanation:
We can be proud of what we achieve in the Mount Vernon City Schools. This year, as in the past, we must concentrate
on the processes that spur continuing advancement: evaluating what we have, determining what we can do to improve,
and identifying what we need to make those improvements. The Curriculum and Instruction Department has taken a
close look at district-wide data, survey data, walk-through data, and teacher input to make amendments to our
curriculum. In order to ensure all stake-holders have clear expectations for the 2018-2019, please find an outline of the
expectations that include past practices and new initiatives.
Newness alone, however, cannot produce transformation. Starting a new year gives us the opportunity to make new
plans, design new strategies, and implement new ideas. There is a special kind of joy and satisfaction in planning lessons
and activities for a new class; for although the subject or grade level is the same, the students are new, and they appreciate
the planning that is done for them.
We are elated to announce the adoptions of “Collections”, a blended core ELA Curriculum Designed to prompt
thoughtfulness, inspire inquiry, and prepare students for 21st century literacies. The adoption will provide students in
engaging texts found in an anthology, coupled with a variety of trade books for indepth novel studies. Students and
teachers will interact with technology to increase engagement and support the acquisition of skills and strategies.
