Answer:
It was Steinbeck himself that originally remarked that Lennie was meant to represent the "inarticulate and powerful yearning of all men." In the context of the setting, it is clear that Lennie Small is a symbol for the frustration and hopelessness felt by dispossessed men during the Great Depression. Lennie's regressed mental state is a way to show that feeling at its most bare.
Lennie has a yearning for affection and a sense of belonging that manifests itself even in the smallest aspects of his life. When he childishly wishes for ketchup to put on his beans, he says "But I wouldn't eat none, George. I'd leave it all for you." His longing to make George happy is reflective of his desire to belong somewhere and to have a function.
George and Lennie are trapped in extreme poverty as migrant workers. Lennie takes pleasure in hearing George's story about how he'll get to tend the rabbits over and over again, even if deep down both of them know it to be a fantasy.

Which type of text structure answers the questions WHAT happened and WHY?
The question is incomplete, and the full version can be found on quizizz.
Answer: Cause & Effect
Explanation:
Cause and effect is a type of text structure, meaning a specific method to arrange information while writing. A text that has been structured as cause and effect provides reasons to why something happened and establishes a cause and effect relationship between two different events.
A chronological structure is wrong because it would present the events in sequential order.
A problem-solution structure is wrong because it would define a problem and a way to resolve it, while a Compare/Contrast structure is wrong because it would establish a comparison between two different ideas or events.

Which answer choice shows how a historical fact was altered in the story “A Fateful Journey?”
Answer:
I hope this helps :)
Explanation:
The author of A fateful Journey uses historical fact from Moving to America in order to influence his story and its effect as a whole.
The author actively choses which historical facts will be used, which will be excluded but also if they need to be modified in order to make the reading more engaging or apealing to the reader. The result is what critics call historiographic metafiction.
Historical accounts describe the condition of the ship and the immigrants moving to America, giving details on how uncomfortable and crowded it was. The author uses this information to add realism to his story and make it look like a real historical account.
On the other hand, he also omitts other facts like the harsh reality faced by the immigrants including the hardship of the long trip, the feuds between immigrants of different nationalities and also the hard process of being questioned and admitted or excluded when landing on Ellis Island. Intead, the author focuses on the more positive aspects like the songs and dances and how the immigrants cheered together in orther to achieve a lighter mood.

L14: Analyzing Word Choice 137
Part 1: Introduction
Have you ever heard someone say “It’s the little things that matter”? In everyday life, little
things can make you happy, sad, annoyed, or excited. In literature and poetry, the little
things that matter are words, chosen carefully by the author. Words affect meaning and
establish the tone, or the attitude of the narrator or speaker. Word choice also is
important because it can create the mood, or atmosphere, in a story or poem.
Read the poem below, paying close attention to poet’s choice of action verbs and
descriptive words.
Murky Monday. Lockers slam,
Doorways clog and hallways jam.
Sweetest Ruby smiles so wide—
She can’t see me shyly hide . . .
Wondrous Monday. Lockers shine.
Ruby smiled at me in line.
Circle words in each line that help you understand the speaker’s feelings.
Read the chart below to help you analyze the poet’s word choices in each line.
Lines Words with Positive Meaning Words with Negative Meaning
1–2 murky, slam, clog, jam
3–4 sweetest, smiles shyly, hide
5–6 wondrous, shine, smiled
Just as movie directors pay attention to the smallest details when setting up each scene,
authors pay attention to each word when they create poems and stories. In this poem, the
poet uses words to show how the speaker’s whole attitude changes after Ruby smiles at
him. Analyzing an author’s choice of words will help you understand a text’s meaning,
mood, and tone.

Lesson 14 CCLS
RL.6.4: . . . analyze the impact of a specific
word choice on meaning and tone.
Answer:
its probably D
Explanation:
Read these paragraphs and answer the question that follows:
In 2008, more than one million American students gave nearly 20 million service hours to their communities. They made a difference in people's lives and learned some important life lessons in the process. Organizations, including schools, are actively promoting service for all citizens as a way to be involved, help others, and improve themselves.
Service is helping other people and being active in your community. For example, one group of teens planted a community garden with their friends. They grow a variety of vegetables. The garden requires regular care. The teens donate the produce to a local soup kitchen. Workers there use the produce to help feed people in the community. By tending the garden and donating their produce, the teens are actively helping make life a bit better for others in their community.
Service is valuable in ways that cannot be measured in dollars. People volunteer or serve others without expecting money or gifts in return. Service is not about earning money. It is not just collecting money to give to a group. It is about action and contributing to the common good. The people who serve as well as those who receive help benefit in many ways that are more important than money or gifts. For example, a soup kitchen provides essential food to people who may otherwise go hungry. The soup kitchen is extremely valuable for those struggling to get enough to eat. Those serving learn about compassion and how helping others can improve life for all.
Millions of Americans are making society better for themselves and for others. They are participating citizens in their community, raising up those who are less fortunate. In return, they become better people who can understand the perspectives and needs of others, which are invaluable and important qualities of good citizens.
Which sentence best represents the main idea of paragraph three, the second body paragraph?
a.) Service is valuable in ways that cannot be measured in dollars.
b.)It is about action and contributing to the common good.
c.)Workers there use the produce to help feed people in the community.
d.) The soup kitchen is extremely valuable for those struggling to get enough to eat.
Answer:
It is about action and contributing to the common good.

your mother is in critical condition while laboring your sibling according to the doctor only one has thr chance to survive . Who you want to kept alive?? your mother or your sibling
your stand and Evidence. why?
Answer:
The mother
Explanation:
Personally, I'd rather have my mother stay alive than my sibling. To begin, there's a high chance that the mother is still able to bear children. Next, seeming as the mother is in critical condition, it's likely that the sibling could be born with a defect, or multiple. And lastly, if the mother were to die, it would be difficult to raise the sibling with the limited experience with parenthood that I have. So, to conclude, I would rather my mother continue to live than my sibling.

Using what the text explicitly says, as well as what you have inferred, is the speaker reliable? Do you believe everything he says? Is there anything in the poem that would give you reason to doubt what he says? In Annabel Lee
Answer and Explanation:
1. The speaker is not reliable because he presents the story from his own perspective. This makes the reader only know the point of view of the speaker who can manipulate the story in any way he wants, since only he knows it. This shows that he is not to be trusted, so it is not possible to believe everything he says.
2. A part of the poem that can promote doubts about his words is when he does not give a name to the place where Annabel Lee lived and talks about her feelings as if he can read her mind.
