Internet Is Not a Substitute for Libraries Earlier, students could only scan libraries to research for their essays and reports. However, living in the age of the internet has made accessing information easier than ever. The internet as a source of information has enabled many students, researchers, professionals, and even teachers to effectively and quickly improve their work. But it is not the best source of research. People can write whatever they think or feel about a subject and publish it on the internet, which can be biased, inaccurate, and even insensitive. Libraries, on the other hand, only house selective and original resource materials that have been thoroughly researched and reviewed before being published. A major problem with the internet is that the information is uncatalogued and saturated with a lot more information than what is needed. For instance, a search engine will provide an ample amount of recent content regardless of how useful. Libraries have not only a proper classifying system to organize all the information but also a person to sort and filter that information. Still, many people argue that libraries are not ideal for research because they do not work around the clock, but the originality and many benefits of libraries are undeniable. Therefore, the internet, despite being an essential tool for modern life, should not be the only nof research for students to explore. 3 Select the correct answer. What claim does the author make about the resource materials available on the internet? A. The information is exclusive and provides an in-depth analysis of a topic. B. The information is unreliable because the internet lacks quality control. C. The information is unfiltered and provides a platform for opposing views and opinions. D. The information is instant because of how easy it is to upload information on the internet.

Answer:
1. He changed it at the age of 17. At the specific moment that witnessed the beginning of his career, when he saw Dan Cody's yacht drop anchor over the most insidious flat on Lake Superior, it's more glamorous and sophisticated.
2. Dreams of glory kept Gatsby up at night..... an endless desire to have more and be more..... the desire to make himself worthy of Daisy.
3. It represents all the beauty, glamor, and success in the world.
4. Some legal device was used against him; all the money went to Ella Kaye. She cheated Gatsby out of it.
5. Men and women had different standards (double standards) where the woman would stay home and be the good wife. The man could go out. Obviously, Tom doesn't like Daisy running around and still believes in these old-fashioned standards, making him sexist and hypocritical.
6. She doesn't like it; it offends her in the way that it's West Egg's new money where everybody is tacky, wild, and drunk. She's elite, and the party doesn't live up to her classy standards of East Egg. It appalls her.
7. Gatsby is new money--tacky, flashy, and showing it off. He wasn't born into privilege, so he thinks like West Eggers. In contrast, Tom and Daisy are classy old money people with standards and sophistication. They're snobby, and the party is below them, but Gatsby doesn't understand because he isn't sophisticated like East Eggers.
8. Nick knows that you can't and shouldn't repeat the past, but Gatsby thinks he can erase the last five years and start over again. His opinion is unrealistic because it's been five years, and both of them have changed. Daisy has a daughter--you can't hit the undo button.

The passage of prose contains a metaphor that shows how we are all connected.
c.
These lines contain alliteration, which creates rhythm.
d.
These lines give human abilities such as singing and language to nature.

A simile is a comparison using like or as. In this example the author is comparing the person falling to a thunderbolt. This comparison shows nature's power.
"As long as I live..." D) These lines give human abilities...By describing the birds, winds, and waterfalls as singing, the author is giving these non-human things human-like qualities. This is also known as personification.
"I'm only a child..." B) The passage of prose contains a metaphor...The passage says that "we are all part of a family". This shows how everyone is connected in this metaphor of everyone being in the same family and sharing air, water, and soil.
"I have seen flocks streaming south..." A) These lines contain a hyperbole...The description of the birds stretching across the entire sky all day long is an over exaggeration of how many birds were actually flying south. While there may have been many, it would not have covered the whole sky, all day long.
"O if we but knew what we do..." C) These lines contain alliteration...Alliteration is the repetition of the same sound at the beginning of a group of words to create a sound effect. In this passage the "w" sound is repeated to give the passage a rhythm.

What is Burkeman's position on failure? a. Failure is everywhere. It's just that most of the time we'd rather avoid confronting that fact. b. Failure is never an option. c. Failure is everywhere and nowhere at the same time. d. Failure is only present when you do not think positively. Most of the time we can avoid it with positive affirmations.
Answer: a. Failure is everywhere. It's just that most of the time we'd rather avoid confronting that fact.
Explanation:
Oliver Burkeman believes that the way to true happiness is not to think so positively all the time that we forget about the negative parts of life. He believes the humans do this often even though they can see failure on the horizon, they still go ahead and do things with a hope that things will work out due to that unwarranted positivity.
He believes that failure is everywhere but people just want to avoid that fact because it is not something that they want to admit can happen.
While some parents are more interested in their own social relationships than in their children, other parents spend their evenings working or involved in time-consuming activities which keep them from spending those hours with their sons or daughters. When parents are preoccupied or away, children will seek attention elsewhere, usually in undesirable surroundings, with people who will recognize and accept them. In a situation of too much freedom and no discipline, the child gets into trouble, and parents often discover the problem too late. The lack of parental discipline and concern frequently results in severe problems for both the child and the parent.

Some linguistic hatav(1993) and Klein(1994) among other's have agued for the three tenses where as other like konig (1995) and quicker Al.(1985)have agued for the two tenses what is the basis for the aguement?
Answer:
The basis of this argument is that verbs are conjugated only in the present and past tense. If we want to refer to the future, we have to use the auxiliary verb will, or the be going to phrase followed by the verb in present or past, or the present tense. Since in English, there is no change in the conjugation of the verbs for the future, some linguistics claim that there are two tenses (past and present) while others claim that there are three because we form the future tense with the addition of the auxiliary or use present simple or continuous.
Explanation:
Linguistics such as Quicker Al claims that there are two tenses, present, and past since they are expressed by inflections in their verbs, while future does not have inflections. There is no future tense, but there is future time. Time is related to our perception of reality, making the future subjective. On the other side, tense expresses when an action happens, taking into account the moment that the person is speaking. Linguistics such as Hatav or Klein claims three tenses' existence, past, present, and future. They state that we can refer to the future with the addition of the auxiliary verb will, or the phrase be going to, or the use of present simple, or continuous even though there is no specific inflection in the verb, as it happens in other languages like Portuguese or Spanish. They identify the future with the definition of tense.
Which of the following best paraphrases how bed bugs are spread?
OA. Bed bugs can be transferred from person to person while traveling because their flat bodies allow them
to squeeze into small, hard-to-see places (Nichols 124).
OB. Bed bugs are easily transported by people who travel regularly and who live or sleep where others have
slept before (Nichols 124).
OC. Bed bugs are most commonly transported while people travel because bed bugs hide anywhere that is
optimal for hiding (Nichols 124).
D. Bed bugs can fit in very small spaces and stay there for a very long time because of their flat bodies;
they travel in the folds of luggage, folded clothing, and bedding (Nichols 124).
