BEFORE the High and Far-Off Times, O my Best Beloved, came the Time of the Very Beginnings; and that was in the days when the Eldest Magician was getting Things ready. First he got the Earth ready; then he got the Sea ready; and then he told all the Animals that they could come out and play. And the Animals said, “O Eldest Magician, what shall we play at?” and he said, “I will show you.” He took the Elephant—All-the-Elephant-there-was—and said, “Play at being an Elephant,” and All-the-Elephant-there-was played. He took the Beaver—All-the-Beaver-there-was—and said, “Play at being a Beaver,” and All-the Beaver-there-was played. He took the Cow—All-the-Cow-there-was—and said, “Play at being a Cow,” and All-the-Cow-there-was played. He took the Turtle—All-the-Turtle-there-was—and said, “Play at being a Turtle,” and All-the-Turtle-there-was played. One by one he took all the beasts and birds and fishes and told them what to play at.
–“The Crab That Played with the Sea,”

Answers
Answer:
D. have great stamina and resistance to cold.
Explanation:
Tracey E. Fern's "America’s Best Girl" revolves around the story of Gertrude “Trudy” Ederle, a 19-year-old swimmer hopeful of crossing the English Channel. The young swimmer will not only become the first woman to swim the Channel but also the fastest person to do so.
Despite the rough weather and unfavorable conditions, Trudy resisted giving up, instead, focusing on the way ahead and swam for "fourteen hours and thirty-one minutes." Her efforts paid off and she succeeded in crossing the Channel, though not without any repercussion. The severity of the seas that day left her with a damaged eardrum, making her deaf. Trudy later became a swimming instructor for children with hearing impairment.
Thus, the reader can conclude, based on the information given in the text, that a person requires great stamina and resistance to cold to swim the Channel.

What does Stevenson suggest American society values most? What does he think American society should value more? What does he think the universe of obligation of the United States should look like? What does he think it actually looks like?
Answers
Hello. Unfortunately, you did not submit the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.
As stated in the paragraph above, it is only possible to answer these questions if the text associated with them is read. This reading should be done by you, as the text is not available. During this reading, you will be able to answer the first question when you identify an element that the text presents as being valuable to American society, so valuable that it is what that society most values and seeks to preserve.
You will be able to answer the second question, when you identify the element that the author considers most precious and that should be more considered and used by American society, but which has been frequently left out.
To answer the third and fourth questions, you will need to understand what "universe of obligation" means. This expression means that there is a group of people who have very specific obligations within society, these obligations are carried out within rules and these people must solve any problems that their obligations may promote. Based on this, to answer the third question, you will need to identify in the text, how the author thinks this "universe of obligation" should be established in society. On the other hand, to answer the fourth question, it will be how the author perceives the "universe of obligation" within society.

Consider Chesterton's inclusion of King Midas in this essay. What purpose does it serve in Chesterton's argument? How is this discussion an allusion?
Answers
Hi. You have not submitted the essay this question refers to, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try and help as best I can.
It is only possible to know how the reference to King Midas is important for the essay if the reading of the essay is done. However, King Midas is known to be a very ambitious and wealth-obsessed King, even to the point of selling his own soul to become richer, which causes him to lose his most precious possession, his daughter. In this case, we can consider that the essay must present this king to draw a parallel between the subject of the essay and this tragic story of Midas, stimulated by the thirst for riches. We can therefore consider that the reference to Midas serves to intensify some of Chesterton's positions within the essay.
This is an example of an allusion, because an allusion is a figure of speech that allows a text to make references to other texts, people, characters, places and external situations.
Answer:
In Greek mythology, Midas is a king obsessed with wealth. He asks the gods for the ability to turn anything he touches to gold. The gods grant his wish, and Midas soon realizes this gift is actually a curse. Chesterton uses the story of Midas as an analogy for chasing materialistic success. Much as the authors worship material wealth and pursue it as if it were attainable, Midas learns that his new ability doesn’t help him succeed because it prevents him from performing necessary tasks such as eating. Chesterton reminds readers of the obvious moral of Midas's story and shows that authors who write about success often misinterpret Midas's story—sometimes by using phrases such as "the Midas touch" in a positive light.
Chesterton emphasizes that King Midas is an example of foolishness and failure. He implies that, for the same reason, writers who encourage people to chase material success share Midas's foolishness:
We all know of such men. We are ever meeting or reading about such persons who turn everything they touch into gold. Success dogs their very footsteps. Their life's pathway leads unerringly upwards. They cannot fail.
Unfortunately, however, Midas could fail; he did. His path did not lead unerringly upward. He starved because whenever he touched a biscuit or a ham sandwich it turned to gold. That was the whole point of the story

Answers
Answer:
1. B. "How can I carry my very big house"?
2. C. They could not move his very big house.
3. A. It will die of hunger.
Explanation:
The above are correct.
From the story, we can see that when the snails were to move because of the grass that has finished in that farm, the problem the snail had was how it could carry its very house. The other snails had to leave him behind because they could not move his very big house.
Since the grasses in that farm has finished, the snail that was left behind will die of hunger. This is because there will be no food for it to eat.
How does the author’s diction affect the tone in this passage? Words like inhuman, cruelty, and terrible support a tone of fear. Words like wonderful, boundless, valour, revered, and virtues support a tone of admiration. Words like sufficient, enumerated, virtues, and dissensions support a critical tone. Words like dissensions, bad, inhuman, cruelty, and terrible support a tone of sorrow.
Answers
The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.
Answer: Words like wonderful, boundless, valour, revered, and virtues support a tone of admiration
Explanation:
The question refers to a passage from chapter 17 of The Prince, by Niccolò Machiavelli, where he praises Hannibal, the commander of the army of Carthage that invaded the Roman Republic during the Second Punic War (218-201 B.C.), for the control he had over his army. Although Hannibal was not able to conquer Rome, Machiavelli applauds his use of "cruelty" to keep his army under control, which can be inferred by his choice of words. The tone is one of admiration, not sorrow, fear, nor criticism.

TITLE: How the Sun was made
On a cold and dark day, a tribe was beginning to pray. the children could not go out and play, for it was dark all the way, and nobody was there to blame. The food was nowhere in sight, all the people had fright, that if they won’t see food tonight, they may have to fight. As the children fell asleep, the people dared to even peep, for they were concentrating on the fire, that was indeed dire. As the cold air blew, the fire swept away with it too. Just as all hope was lost, they saw the mighty Hephaestus’ arms crossed. He exclaimed that there will be day, where it won’t be dark so you can lay, in the baking sun, all the children could have fun, but they had to pay. The tribe agreed to take half their night, and replace it with the sun to find animals to fight. (IM SORRY IF THIS IS TOO LONG! I got way too involved with the story haha)

Read the passage from chapter 2 of Animal Farm. Yes, it was theirs—everything that they could see was theirs! In the ecstasy of that thought they gamboled round and round, they hurled themselves into the air in great leaps of excitement. They rolled in the dew, they cropped mouthfuls of the sweet summer grass, they kicked up clods of the black earth and snuffed its rich scent. Then they made a tour of inspection of the whole farm and surveyed with speechless admiration the ploughland, the hayfield, the orchard, the pool, the spinney. It was as though they had never seen these things before, and even now they could hardly believe that it was all their own. Which prediction does this passage best support? The farm will not belong to the animals in the end. The animals will give the farm back to the humans. The farm and the land will be destroyed by a drought.
