Read this excerpt from a classic story.
Alice was beginning to get tired of sitting by her sister on the bank and having nothing
to do. Once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no
pictures or conversations. "What is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or
conversations?"
Suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes scampered close by her
That was nothing so very remarkable, nor did Alice think it strange to hear the Rabbit
say to itself, "Oh dear! Oh dear! / shall be late." But when the Rabbit actually took a watch
out of its waistcoat pocket looked at it, and then hurried on Alice leaped to her feet. It
flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat
pocket or watch. Burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it. Fortunately, she
was just in time to see the rabbit pop down a large rabbit hole under the hedge.

(make a whole scripting scene :D) and find out what the detectives do to solve the case
(MARKING AS BRAINLIEST-ill even give a 97 point free question-if i like yours!)
Answer: The man the wealthy woman had met was actually a con artist. He had convinced her to write his name in the will by saying he was her long lost cousin. He said his mother abandoned him as a baby and he had recently found out her name. There was no proof since the wealthy woman’s sister had already passed, but the wealthy woman had no other family and believed his lie. She allowed him to live in her home until one night the man killed her in her sleep. He then hid the body in her huge backyard. In order to solve the case, the detectives did a DNA test to see whether or not the man was actually related as he had told the wealthy woman. When it came back negative, he tried to flee the country where he was stopped by border police. The detectives got a search warrant on the house and found the body in the backyard after finding a small trail of blood. When looking for evidence they found the man’s old ring dropped near the body. He was convicted for life in prison.

How does the author make it clear that Dr. Benjamin Rush was a dedicated
physician?
Answer: here's my answer
Explanation: During the spring of 1813, former presidents John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were united in grief at the death of a mutual friend who had recently persuaded them to forget their bitter rivalries. Like the two celebrated statesmen, the eminent physician and social reformer Benjamin Rush had been a Founding Father, one of 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence in 1776.
But Adams and Jefferson believed that Rush deserved to be remembered for much more than his conspicuous enthusiasm for the cause of American liberty. Jefferson wrote that “a better man, than Rush, could not have left us,” extolling his benevolence, learning, genius and honesty. Adams replied with equal praise: He knew of no one, “living or dead,” who had “done more real good in America.” Writing to Rush’s son, Richard, Adams maintained that as a “benefactor” to his country, the doctor deserved greater recognition than even the celebrated polymath Benjamin Franklin.

No one knows exactly when the first people came to the Guadalupe Mountains in far west Texas, but archaeological evidence dates back over 10,000 years ago. The earliest inhabitants were hunter-gatherers who followed available game and ripening vegetation. They lived in and among the many caves and alcoves common throughout the range. Scattered evidence of their existence, including projectile points, baskets, pottery, and rock art has been found throughout the mountain range.
Since then, many different groups have moved in and out of the area, including the Spanish who arrived by the mid 1500s. There is little evidence of any attempts on their part to penetrate the Guadalupes. No large-scale settlements have been located. Their influence was significant, though, because they introduced horses into the area. For the bands of Apaches who roamed freely over much of the southwest, horses quickly became an asset to their nomadic lifestyle. The Mescalero Apaches followed game, much as the earlier peoples had done, and they also harvested the agave (or mescal) for food and fiber. Mescalero is the name given to them by the Spanish. It means mescal-maker. Agave roasting pits and other remains of Mescalero campsites are common in the mountains.
Prior to the mid 1800's, the Guadalupes remained an unchallenged sanctuary for the Mescalero Apaches. But newly established transportation routes, and the end of the Civil War, encouraged droves of pioneers, homesteaders, miners, and numerous others to head west. In the mid 1800s, explorers were commissioned to look for possible emigrant routes to the west. The proposed transcontinental railroad expected to follow one of these routes. Although these surveying expeditions would never lead to a railroad through Guadalupe Pass, they did provide the first extensive studies of the Guadalupe region.
In 1858, a horse-changing station was constructed near Pine Springs for the Butterfield Overland Mail. To protect their investments, the stage line and settlers in the area demanded protection from the military. Several cavalry troops were ordered in and out of the area to halt Indian raids and secure settlements along the stage route. In the winter of 1869, troops lead by Lt. H.B. Cushing penetrated the Guadalupes and destroyed two primary Apache camps. These aggressive actions were devastating to the Mescaleros who were already facing food shortages within their increasingly limited land base. They were eventually driven out of the Guadalupes. By the late 1800's, nearly all of the surviving Mescalero Apaches in the United States were living on reservations.
Permanent settlements in the Guadalupes were not common though, even after the final displacement of the Mescaleros. The Butterfield stage route through the Guadalupes was abandoned in less than a year for a more favorable course along a string of army forts to the south. Most settlers found the range (and its limited water sources) too rugged and inhospitable. The first permanent ranch house was constructed in 1876 by the Rader brothers. Now called Frijole Ranch, it served as residence for several families through the years. And, as the only major building complex in the region (for several decades), it served as a community center and regional post office from 1916-1942. Today, the Frijole Ranch House has been restored and operates as a cultural museum.

Answer: The conversation between the mother and son indicates the advantages and disadvantages of the Machine.
Explanation:
The correct response is - The discussion between the mother and son reveals the benefits and drawbacks of the Machine.
What is "The Machine Stops"?E. M. Forster wrote the science fiction short tale "The Machine Stops." The tale was first published in The Oxford and Cambridge Review, and it was then included in Forster's 1928 collection The Eternal Moment and Other Stories.
The Machine Stops was written by Forster in reaction to one of H. G. Wells' utopian books (probably A Modern Utopia, published in 1905). In response, Forster provided a pessimistic appraisal of humanity's over-reliance on contemporary technology and ultimate enslavement to it.
In the scenario depicted in the narrative, the majority of people are no longer able to live on Earth's surface. The omnipotent, universal Machine now provides for every person's physical and spiritual requirements while they dwell in seclusion in conventional rooms below the earth.

According to paragraphs 8-10 how did the events surrounding Chang-bo’s experience with the state security agents begin to change his wife’s ideas about the government? Highlight specific evidence from the text and make annotations to support any inferences you make.
Chang-bo’s experience changed his wife’s ideas about the government because _______. This means _____________. For example, “ ______________________________”
8. When he returned home, he got a tongue-lashing from his wife that was almost harsher than the interrogation. It was the worst fight of their marriage. For Mrs. Song, it was not merely that her husband had been disrespectful of the government; for the first time in her life, she felt the stirrings of fear. Her conduct had always been so impeccable and her devotion so genuine that it never occurred to her that she might be vulnerable.
9. “Why did you say such nonsense when there were neighbors in the apartment? Didn’t you realize you could have jeopardized everything we have?” she railed at him.
10. In fact, they both realized how lucky they were. If not for Chang-bo’s excellent class background and his party membership, he would not have been let off so lightly. It helped, too, that Mrs. Song had at various times been head of the inminban in the building and commanded some respect from the state security officers. Chang-bo’s offhand remark was precisely the kind of thing that could result in deportation to a prison camp in the mountains if the offender didn’t have a solid position in the community. They had heard of a man who cracked a joke about Kim Jong-iI’s height and was sent away for life. Mrs. Song personally knew a woman from her factory who was taken away for something she wrote in her diary. At the time, Mrs. Song hadn’t felt any pity for the woman. “The traitor probably deserved what she got,” she’d said to herself. Now she felt embarrassed for having thought such a thing.
Answer:
Question: According to paragraphs 8-10, how did the events surrounding Chang-bo’s experience with the state security agents begin to change his wife’s ideas about the government? Highlight specific evidence from the text and make annotations to support any inferences you make.
Chang-bo’s experience changed his wife’s ideas about the government because of how close he was to deportation. This means that because Chang-bo was lucky and got away with taking things lightly for once, his wife showed her fearful and vulnerable side now that they had to watch out for everything they said. For example, “for the first time in her life, she felt the stirrings of fear. Her conduct had always been so impeccable and her devotion so genuine that it never occurred to her that she might be vulnerable. “Why did you say such nonsense when there were neighbors in the apartment? Didn’t you realize you could have jeopardized everything we have?” she railed at him." This proves that because of Chang-bo's carelessness, she felt even more fearful, and let that part of her slip.
