King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba are used as an allusion. This allusion describes how much the watch and hair comb mean to Jim and Della. These 2 people are not rich and they feel as rich as the Queen of Sheba. The items are just as much as they can give each other...nothing more...no money. These items in reality could never be "worth" all of the queen's jewels. But, to these two lovers, it is the best gift of all. Giving of something that means something to you, has value, and is cherished.

STORY: The Elevator by William Sleator
Answer:
THEME: It is better to face your fears than to avoid them.
The author encourages readers to confront their fears rather than avoid them. Martin's fear was able to track him down because he had fled from it.
EVIDENCE FROM THE STORY:
12-year-old. Martin dreads being alone in an elevator and feels nervous in the elevator with others. He states: "That was what he hated about being alone in the thing—the fear of being trapped in there for hours by himself." He can't decide between the stairs and the elevator because of the overweight woman. The elevator portrays the big woman, while the stairs reflect his father's frailty.

9. Why does the author include Information about Margot's breakdown over taking a shower in the school
showers?
Answer:
Margot's refusal to take a shower symbolically represents her negative feelings regarding the rainy planet. She wants to be dry, not wet, baking in the sun, not under the tyranny of a constant downpour, and so rebels against the shower. To her, the shower symbolizes the constant rain she hates. The author portrays this to represent her characteristics and feelings.

On the other hand or Some may think/say the community in the giver is successful in creating the perfect world. Chapter 11: “Climate Control. Snow made growing food difficult, limiting the agricultural periods. And unpredictable weather made transportation almost impossible at times. It wasn’t a practical thing, so it became obsolete when we went to Sameness. “And hills, too,” he added. “They made conveyance of goods unwieldy. Trucks; buses. Slowed them down. So—” He waved his hand, as if a gesture had caused hills to disappear. “Sameness,” he concluded.” Some people might think climate control would be a good thing because they don't like cold weather and snow. “Then the sled, with Jonas himself upon it, began to move through the snowfall, and he understood instantly that now he was going downhill. No voice made an explanation. The experience explained itself to him. Comprehending all of those things as he sped downward, he was free to enjoy the breathless glee that overwhelmed him: the speed, the clear cold air, the total silence, the feeling of balance and excitement and peace.” The cold and snowy weather isn't necessarily awful; in fact, it can offer people delight and excitement. “It’s called snow, Gabe,” Jonas whispered. “Snowflakes. They fall down from the sky, and they’re very beautiful.”

Which two sentences contain Ronald Reagan's main argument in this excerpt from his 1964 speech "A Time for Choosing"?
As for the peace that we would preserve, I wonder who among us would like to approach the wife or mother whose husband or son has died in South Vietnam and ask them if they think this is a peace that should be maintained indefinitely. Do they mean peace, or do they mean we just want to be left in peace? There can be no real peace while one American is dying some place in the world for the rest of us. We're at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it's been said if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening. Well I think it's time we ask ourselves if we still know the freedoms that were intended for us by the Founding Fathers.
Answer:
"There can be no real peace while one American is dying some place in the world for the rest of us",
"If we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours..", this sentence reflects the idea of Reagan's speech of the need of an active government that will not stop fighting for the American values.

Why Michael brown got shot?
Answer:
On August 9, 2014, Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson shot and killed Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old. It will never be perfectly clear what happened on that day. But the grand jury and US Department of Justice didn’t believe there was enough evidence to file charges against Wilson for wrongdoing.
Wilson claimed Brown was violent throughout the encounter, even charging at the officer after gunshots were fired. But some eyewitness testimony, which is notoriously unreliable, said Brown was trying to flee from Wilson and attempted to surrender — by raising his hands up — before he was killed.
After Wilson made contact with Brown and told the 18-year-old to not walk in the middle of the road, the officer reportedly realized Brown was a robbery suspect who stole cigarillos from a nearby convenience store. Wilson attempted to stop Brown, and both men had a physical altercation at the officer’s SUV. Wilson then opened fire from his vehicle. Brown ran, turned around, and Wilson fired more shots, supposedly out of fear that Brown was charging at him.
Brown died about 150 feet from Wilson’s vehicle. He was shot six times. No gunshot was confirmed to hit Brown from behind, although two wounds had an undetermined trajectory.
