I GIVE BRAINLY. Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor"
by Dean Kamen
When I was twelve years old and Barton, my older
brother, was around fifteen, we took over the family
basement. At first, I made a darkroom for
developing pictures, and Bart was using it as his lab
where he was raising about one hundred white rats,
removing their thymus glands, and trying to figure
out the glands' dysfunction. He wanted pictures
taken of his experiment, doing the surgery on rats,
and since I already had a darkroom, I took the
pictures, though somewhat reluctantly. I didn't like
the blood

Use the introductory paragraph to answer the question.

Did you know that if a car is hit with an entire carton of eggs, the cost of repainting it could be as much as $15,000? Egging cars is a popular, age-old prank, but it should not be taken lightly. If your car was hit with an egg last night during the Halloween festivities, wash it off immediately. And parents, if your children were among these pranksters, please urge them to stop. It is a little-known fact that all three parts of an egg can damage a car: the shells can scratch the paint; the egg yolk is acidic, so it can eat through the clear coat of paint and damage the base coat; and the egg whites turn into a glue-like substance after a while, making them nearly impossible to remove. There are three useful strategies for removing eggs from your car, but they will work only if you clean your car right away.

What is the tone of the paragraph?

A) cautionary and urgent

B) amused and lighthearted

C) outraged and harsh

D) friendly and encouraging

Nights and Dragons
From the memoir of author Abigail Prynne
1
I sit at my desk listening to thunder growl outside my window. Flashes of light burst through the darkness, and wind races past my window. The thrilling combination of sight and sound conjures up visions of dragons roaring proudly, breathing fire, and soaring across the midnight sky. Dragons first fascinated me when I was a little girl. They have followed me ever since. The magnificent creatures appeared in storybooks I read in the library, paintings I saw in museums, movies I watched in the theater, and the dreams I had in my sleep. By the time I was thirteen, one question consumed me. I wanted to know if dragons ever existed, so I set out on a quest for facts.
2
As I started my research, I discovered many skeptics. Scientists presented evidence to show why dragons could notand did notexist. They explained that it would be impossible for dragons to fly because they would be too big. They laughed at the idea of dragons breathing fire. They pointed out that no other animal has ever done this. They said that if dragons had lived, someone would have found remains somewhere in the world. No bones about it, there were plenty of logical explanations. It would have been easy for me to accept that the only place dragons ever existed was in the imaginations of those who believed.
3
I could have given up, but I thought about my grandmother. She always told me that "people who believe that science is the answer to everything are missing out on everything else." With her words in mind, I searched some more. There were many facts that hinted that dragons may not be fictional. I noticed that cultures across the world all described dragons in similar ways. This was odd because they had no way to communicate with each other. I found dragons mentioned in more than just stories. They appeared in old legal papers, in the travel logs of Marco Polo, and in the Bible. I saw that the Chinese calendar uses a different animal each year. Dragons are included along with eleven real animals. I began to believe it was a real possibility that all of these people were talking about a creature that actually existed.
4
With renewed hope that there was some truth to the legends, I looked for new research. I found that some experts disagreed with popular arguments against dragons. They suggested that a dragon could have four stomachs like a cow. If it created stomach gases like birds, it might create enough to lift itself off the ground. This would give it the ability to fly. If it forced out air when diving toward the earth, it might release gases which could ignite into flame. When the animal died, the stomachs would release strong acids that would dissolve its dead body over time. Biologists backed up these ideas with sketches and models based on known animals. Not everyone agreed with these ideas, but many of the things we accept about dinosaurs and other extinct species started the same way.
5
I doubt we will ever truly know whether dragons existed. There may always be two sides to the fiery debate. Some will say the stories come from active imaginations. Some will believe with all their hearts that the legendary creatures roamed our ancient world. I don't know for certain which side to believe, but the sound and fury of a night like this makes me smile. It rekindles my childhood dreams and keeps the exciting possibility alive.

In paragraph 5, the author discusses two sides to the dragon debate. Which statement best summarizes the ideas in the paragraph?

1)

The author implicitly states that she believes that dragons once existed.

2)

The author explicitly states that she believes that dragons once existed.

3)

B.) “That could be a lot of bang for the advertising buck, and a nice amount of change for district coffers.” (paragraph 24)


C.) “Like Lewis-Palmer, most districts that allow advertising on their buses choose to put the money in general funds to help with such things as higher fuel and utility expenses…” (paragraph 24)


D.) “Some of the advertisements on Lewis-Palmer buses include dentists, restaurants, insurance agents, a gymnasium, PTA’s and the district's own programs.” (paragraph 26)

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

C.) “Like Lewis-Palmer, most districts that allow advertising on their buses choose to put the money in general funds to help with such things as higher fuel and utility expenses…” (paragraph 24)

D does not talk about a budgetary concern

Although C is talking about "most districts that allow advertising on their buses choose to put the money in general funds to help with such things as higher fuel and utility expenses".

They are putting the money towards their general funds which is a budgetary concern.

Summary of the second chapter of Frankenstein

Elizabeth and Victor grow up together as best friends. Victor’s friendship with Henry Clerval, a schoolmate and only child, flourishes as well, and he spends his childhood happily surrounded by this close domestic circle. As a teenager, Victor becomes increasingly fascinated by the mysteries of the natural world. He chances upon a book by Cornelius Agrippa, a sixteenth-century scholar of the occult sciences, and becomes interested in natural philosophy. He studies the outdated findings of the alchemists Agrippa, Paracelsus, and Albertus Magnus with enthusiasm. He witnesses the destructive power of nature when, during a raging storm, lightning destroys a tree near his house. A modern natural philosopher accompanying the Frankenstein family explains to Victor the workings of electricity, making the ideas of the alchemists seem outdated and worthless. (In the 1818 version, a demonstration of electricity by his father convinces Victor of the alchemists’ mistakenness.)

Powerful. Omnipotent means all- powerful

Explanation:

The root "potent" in the word "omnipotent" means "powerful." Therefore, option 4 is correct.

Root words are the basic lexical units from which many words are derived. They are typically morphemes that carry the core meaning of a word. In the context of the word "omnipotent," which is typically used to describe a deity or divine being, "potent" refers to having unlimited or supreme power. It implies the ability to do anything and have complete control over all things.

Therefore, option 4, "powerful," is the correct choice to describe the meaning of the root "potent" in the word "omnipotent."

What do you mean by essay?

An essay is a literary piece that analyzes, interprets, or critiques a work of literature. It is typically much shorter, less structured, and less formal than a dissertation or thesis, and it approaches its subject from a specific, frequently personal perspective.

The essay and related genres, including maxims, portraits, and sketches, had a powerful influence on the behavior of the learned classes throughout Europe in the 17th century, first in France and then, through French influence, in much of Europe.

In his articles on the art of worldly wisdom, the 17th-century Spanish Jesuit Baltasar Gracián was one of those who pursued this issue.

While the essay was formerly the preferred form of literary and social critique in some nations, it has now evolved into a semi-political, sincerely nationalistic, and frequently polemical, humorous, or bitter genre in other nations.
