Read the passage and then answer the question that follows.

When Mike adjusted his bicycle, I thought I was watching a chess game. He would stare at a part for a while before he acted. Then we would wait for his opponent's response. For example, he stared for ten minutes before tightening the rear sprockets. Then he rode the bike for a minute, analyzing the change in the bike's performance. At first, I thought he was too careful. Now, I realize he didn't want the bicycle to become his Waterloo.

Making the Most of Mucus

Just the name itself will make you giggle. It's a great word that conjures visions of slime and unpleasantness. It is perhaps the most annoying part of having a cold or allergies. Mucus, however, plays a very important role in defense of our bodies and our health. In fact, it's high time mucus got a lot more respect.

First, there are some amazing facts about mucus that are worthy of respect. Humans produce about a liter of mucus every day, whether they are sick or not. Bony fish and some invertebrates (snails or slugs) also have mucus cells on the outside of their body. This external mucus creates a protective coating that prevents predators' toxins from doing harm. Humans produce mucus to protect our stomachs, our lungs, and several other systems.

We tend to not like mucus because it is a considered a symptom or sign that something is wrong. We usually only see it when we are sick, and so we tend to dislike it. According to Michael M. Johns, III, MD, however, "mucus is incredibly important for our bodies." Johns, an assistant professor at Emory University, calls mucus "the oil in the engine" of our bodies. Without mucus, our engines, or bodies, would freeze up and stop working properly.

Furthermore, mucus is not just the nasty gunk you see when you are sick. It lines the tissues in your mouth, your nose, throat, and lungs. It also is crucial in protecting your digestive system. Mucus puts a protective coating over the surfaces of these tissues, keeping them moist. Most of the time we don't notice mucus is making our lives better. It does its job quietly, making everything run smoothly, keeping our inner tissues soft and flexible enough to fight off invaders.

Occasionally, though our mucus-making membranes go into overdrive. If you eat a hot pepper, your mucus membranes in your mouth and throat start producing extra mucus to protect you. If you come into contact with pollen, you may get a runny nose and start sneezing and coughing. When these things happen, your mucus systems start making more fluids to wash away the irritating particles. Mucus also has some antibodies that increase our ability to fight off bacteria and viruses.

It's hard to appreciate what is essentially slime, but we have mucus for some very good reasons. It helps to keep us healthy and lets us know when our bodies are under attack. We would be wise to respect what our bodies do to keep us safe. So the next time you find yourself reaching for a tissue, remember mucus is your friend and ally.

What's in a Name?

Mucus is a great word, not only because it gives name to an important bodily function, but also because it is one of those words that simultaneously makes you feel grossed-out and giggly. Other words for this powerfully important human-health tool include slime and phlegm. Slang words for mucus include boogers and snot. All of these words have the same giggle-power, simply from the combination of consonants and vowels. By the way, mucus is an old word; it's been around since the mid-1600s and has roots back to Latin (mucere, to be moldy or musty) and Greek (myxa, mucus). While you may assume that words like snot and boogers are relatively new slang terms, they are not. Snot dates to 1560 and comes from an Old English word, gesnot, and has the same root as the word snout. The word booger is not quite as old but has been in use since the 1890s.


The authors of both texts would most likely agree that
A. mucus is gross but important
B. the names of things can be funny
C. slime and mucus are the same thing
D. words for mucus have interesting histories

Answers

Answer:

I think the answer might be B

Explanation:

The first article is about the bodily functions of mucus, whereas the second article is more about the word. The first article touches in that a bit, so I think the authors would agree.

I have nothing I treasure more:

Yet, it is something I could spare.

Oh, if instead, she'd left to me

The thing she took into the grave! -

That courage like a rock, which she

Has no more need of, and I have.

The central idea of the poem is how her mother died and took her courage with her, something her child does not have. The child states how since she is dead she took it with her to her grave which is why they said she does not need it anymore. The mother left behind a golden brooch that she wore since it would remind her child of her even when she is gone. But the child wants her courage, not her brooch.

Then theres the part where the giver shows jonas a memory about christmas and jonas realizes love. The But returning home, Jonas asks his parents if they love him. They are confused by the question and offer alternative ways of phrasing the query. They finally give an answer, but they have no concept of love like Jonas has, so he lies and says he is satisfied with their answer.

Use the smallest baseball and the bigger bat. Then swing heartily. Will the ball soar farther than it did before?
Which word is a superlative adjective?

A) smallest

B) bigger

C) heartily

D) farther

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is D) farther.

Explanation:

The word "farther" is a superlative adjective because it is used to compare the distance that the ball travels to other distances. It indicates that the ball travels the greatest distance of all. The other words in the sentence are not superlative adjectives. "Smallest" and "bigger" are comparative adjectives, while "heartily" is an adverb that describes the manner in which the ball is hit.

Answer:

D) farther.

Explanation:

A superlative adjective is a type of adjective that is used to compare three or more things and indicate that one thing is the most extreme or highest in quality among the group. In the sentence provided, "farther" is a superlative adjective because it is used to compare the distance traveled by the ball before and after using the smaller baseball and larger bat, and it indicates that the ball will travel the greatest distance after the change.

Explanation:

In sentence B, "It was the frog that caught my eye on the lily pad in the pond," the phrase "on the lily pad in the pond" is a modifier that describes where the frog was located. However, the placement of this modifier creates confusion because it seems to modify "my eye" instead of "frog."

To clarify the intended meaning, the modifier should be placed closer to the noun it is meant to modify. A possible revision could be:

Refer to the article "Opinion: Bicultural Identity Is Something to Be Embraced."
Read the claim and the reason.

Claim: Young people may be more capable of embracing their bicultural identity and sharing it with the dominant culture.

Reason: Her daughter openly talks to her friends about Indian culture, sharing information about Indian dance and music.

How does this reason logically support the author's claim?


A: It shows how much sharing one's culture breaks down barriers to acceptance.

B: It shows how much work the author has done to teach her daughter to be proud of her heritage.

C: It shows that her daughter is confident in herself and comfortable with her Indian and American identities.

D: It describes how it can be challenging to fit into a dominant culture.

Answers

Answer:

I'm confident the answer would be C!

Explanation:

Mainly because if her friends asked about her  culture most would be scared but unlike others she was confident and wanted to educate her friends

Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

The answer isn't A, because the reason doesn't talk about acceptance. The answer also isn't B, because the reason doesn't bring up the author teaching her daughter how to be proud. The answer also isn't D, because the reason talks nothing about any challenges the daughter had fitting into her culture. So that leaves C, and since the reason says the daughter 'openly talks to her friends about her Indian culture' that implies that she is confident enough in herself and her identity to talk about her heritage.
