Is the day of the dead is a Mexican version of Halloween or whether this is a misconception?
Answer:
The Day of the Dead IS NOT the Mexican version of Halloween. Mexicans have celebrated the Day of the Dead since the year 1800 B.C.
Day of the Dead doesn’t honor death, but our dead relatives. We welcome the opportunity to reflect upon our lives, our heritage, our ancestors and the meaning and purpose of our own existence.
Altars or ofrendas are not for worship but for offering our love and remembering our departed family members.
The Day of the Dead is a moment to reflect upon one’s life and the cycle of life and death.

Read the two passages and answer the question.
Passage 1: "Midas" retold by Thomas Bulfinch
[1] Bacchus, on a certain occasion, found his old schoolmaster and foster-father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity.
[2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice.
[3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold.
[4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day.
Passage 2: "Bacchus's Regret" by Hunter Doyle
[1] King Midas returned my beloved teacher to me,
so I rewarded him with a wish—whatever he wanted would be.
Midas cried, "Give my fingers a golden touch!
Then, I shall have a gilded kingdom and such."
[5] I tried to make him see the err of his choice,
but he would not heed the caution in my voice.
I pleaded with Midas, "Be careful what you choose,
for you're only thinking of what you'll gain—not what you'll lose."
[9] His thirst for wealth became no match for his appetite;
after all, a gold apple is not something one can bite.
His daughter wept for her poor starving dad,
so he wiped her tears and told her not to be sad.
[13] Into a golden statue Midas's daughter became,
and he and his greedy wish were ultimately to blame.
Yet, maybe if I had put up more of a fight and a fret,
then I wouldn't have to live with all this regret.
What is similar about how the authors show the theme greed can have negative consequences?
A. Both describe how Midas is starving because of his wish
B. Both explain that Midas's daughter becomes a statue
C. Both give details about the golden twig, stone, and bread
D. Both show how Bacchus takes pity on Midas and reverses his wish

Before 1845, “states were allowed to hold elections any time they pleased within a 34-day period before the first Wednesday in December.” What was one effect of this election system?
A)Voters in states with late elections knew the results of early elections.
B) Farmers were often unable to get to their polling place in time to vote.
C)The people who voted first could decide the outcome of most elections.
D) People spent less time in church because they would often travel to vote on Sundays.
Answer:
A)Voters in states with late elections knew the results of early elections.
Explanation:
When states were allowed to hold elections anytime they pleased within a 34 day period before the first Wednesday in December, the effect of this was that the result of the early elections usually influenced the late voters because the voters in states with late elections knew the results of the early elections.
This gave the candidate with early lead an unfair advantage over his rival.
Noah recites, "In America you had the forced removal of the native onto reservations coupled with slavery followed by segregation. Imagine all three of those things happening to the same group of people at the same time, that was apartheid" (19-20). Explain how you would react if you were one to experience this a non-European person.
Answer:
As a non-European, I would react to agree with Noah and feel a strong empathy and emotion for the people who had to live in this system.
Explanation:
Most non-European nations have experienced some form of abuse by Europeans and for this reason, it is easy to agree with other non-Europeans who have experienced very difficult and disadvantageous situations caused by some European nation. Thus, a non-European, on hearing Noah's account of apartheid, would be prone to agree with him and react positively to the information he exposed. In addition to maintaining a strong partnership, by knowing what powerful nations like Europeans can do in less powerful nations.

How does the butterfly that Eckles steps on contribute to the theme of the story
The butterfly is able to show a modern problem in society, you can kill or change one little thing without knowing. Causing a huge affect for everyone, you will only notice when you can no longer go back. The exact quotes are “Not a little thing like that! Not a butterfly!” cried Eckels. “It fell to the floor, an exquisite thing, a small thing that could upset balances and knock down a line of small dominoes and then big dominoes and then gigantic dominoes, all down the years across Time.”
Below is a paragraph about how the story fits into the science fiction genre.
Hope this helps!
“The Sound of Thunder” fits into a science fiction genre, due to the fact that the characters go back into time; with the events that follow the whole world is changed when one little tiny thing is affected. Many of the things that happen in the story can be applied into real life, many of which you would not think about. The theme of the story is very realistic but futuristic at the same time; therefore, making it very complicated with real problems in the modern world but not having it appear that way. The story has a diamon effect when Eckles stepped on the butterfly it had changed everything in the world when they had returned. The exact quotes are “Not a little thing like that! Not a butterfly!” cried Eckels. “It fell to the floor, an exquisite thing, a small thing that could upset balances and knock down a line of small dominoes and then big dominoes and then gigantic dominoes, all down the years across Time.”

Identify the point of disagreement between the two viewpoints. Then write a
sentence that synthesizes this information to form a conclusion about the topic.
Viewpoint 1:
Human cultures around the world feature groups of people working together
within communities. Though there are those who have been able to live in the
wild independently, their ability to take care of themselves probably came
from being raised by and interacting with other people. Humans are not like
some badgers or jaguars that live and hunt alone. Instead, humans are highly
social creatures, similar to dolphins and gorillas. We build extended social
networks that allow us to live peacefully and comfortably without having to do
everything ourselves.
Viewpoint 2:
Beyond being fed and protected as infants and young children, people don't
Answer:
The first viewpoint implies that humans aren't independent, while the second implies that they are
Explanation:
The first viewpoint talks about how humans use social networks and comunication with others to live comfortbaly, while the second one says that humans only get protected as kids and then after that they are on their own.
Answer:Viewpoint 1:

Viewpoint 2:
Beyond being fed and protected as infants and young children, people don't need communities to survive. The sole function of a community is to pass on and enforce social customs, such as manners and traditions. These customs are not necessary for a human's survival. Plenty of people have gone out into the world alone to survive off the land and discover new things. The skills of survival are innate — we will find ways to keep ourselves alive, whether we're part of a community or not.

Read the excerpt from Hamlet.
Hamlet: Let me see.—[Takes the skull.]—Alas! poor Yorick. I knew him, Horatio; a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy; he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rises at it. Here hung those lips that I have kissed I know not how oft. Where be your gibes now? your gambols? your songs? your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one now, to mock your own grinning?
Which analysis is most justified by the excerpt?
A)As the play draws to a close, Hamlet still has not conquered his fear of death.
B)Hamlet’s visit to the graveyard leads to him become obsessed with his death.
C)At the end of the play, Hamlet literally faces death and regains a sense of hope.
D)Hamlet has abandoned his plans by this point and has reconciled himself to death.
Answer:
The analysis that is most justified by the excerpt is:
A) As the play draws to a close, Hamlet still has not conquered his fear of death.
Explanation:
In the famous Shakespearean play, Hamlet, prince of Denmark, is tormented by the idea of death. And, as the excerpt shows, he does not conquer his fear of death even though the play is drawing to a close. The issue is the fact that Hamlet is not sure about what happens after one dies. What if the afterlife is even worse than the life one is living now? Notice how he talks about and to the skull, how he feels sick to his stomach just by looking at it. Death still makes Hamlet uneasy. He can't help but compare the skull to what it was when its owner was alive.

Read the sentence from the section "Two Key
Parts Make Up Nuclear Fusion."
This means the end of the line for small
stars, who quietly fade into darkness
after they have used up their hydrogen.
The phrases "end of the line" and "fade into
darkness" in the sentence give the reader a sense
А
that the stars suddenly die
B
that the stars gradually disappear
that the stars become too dim to see
D
that the stars need more hydrogen for energy
Next
Answer:
B. that the stars gradually disappear
Explanation:
According to the sentence from the section Two Key Parts Make Up Nuclear Fusion, "this means the end of the line for small
stars, who quietly fade into darkness after they have used up their hydrogen", the phrases "end of the line" and "fade into darkness" makes the reader understand that the stars gradually disappear.
This is because, the phrases show that the stars will gradually disappear as they have run out of hydrogen.
