When Susan was two years old, her father built a cotton factory of twenty-six looms beside the brook which ran through Grandfather Read's meadow, hauling the cotton forty miles by wagon from Troy, New York. The millworkers, most of them young girls from Vermont, boarded, as was the custom, in the home of the millowner, Susan's mother, Lucy Read Anthony, although she had three small daughters to care for, Guelma, Susan, and Hannah, boarded eleven of the millworkers with only the help of a thirteen-year-old girl who worked for her after school hours. Lucy Anthony cooked their meals on the hearth of the big kitchen fireplace, and in the large brick oven beside it baked crisp brown loaves of bread. In addition, washing, ironing, mending, and spinning filled her days. But she was capable and strong and was doing only what all women in this new country were expected to do. She taught her young daughters to help her, and Susan, even before she was six, was very useful; by the time she was ten she could cook a good meal and pack a dinner pail." her father built a cotton factory of twenty-six looms boarded eleven of the millworkers with only the help of a thirteen-year-old girl the millworkers boarded in the home of the millowner by the time she was ten, she could cook a good meal and pack a dinner pail

Excerpt from The War of the World
By H. G. Wells
A singularly appropriate phrase it proved. Yet the next day there was nothing of this in the papers except a little note in the Daily Telegraph, and the world went in ignorance of one of the gravest dangers that ever threatened the human race. I might not have heard of the eruption at all had I not met Ogilvy, the well-known astronomer, at Ottershaw. He was immensely excited at the news, and in the excess of his feelings invited me up to take a turn with him that night in a scrutiny of the red planet. In spite of all that has happened since, I still remember that vigil very distinctly: the black and silent observatory, the shadowed lantern throwing a feeble glow upon the floor in the corner, the steady ticking of the clockwork of the telescope, the little slit in the roof—an oblong profundity with the stardust streaked across it. Ogilvy moved about, invisible but audible. Looking through the telescope, one saw a circle of deep blue and the little round planet swimming in the field. It seemed such a little thing, so bright and small and still, faintly marked with transverse stripes, and slightly flattened from the perfect round. But so little it was, so silvery warm—a pin’s head of light! It was as if it quivered, but really this was the telescope vibrating with the activity of the clockwork that kept the planet in view. As I watched, the planet seemed to grow larger and smaller and to advance and recede, but that was simply that my eye was tired. Forty millions of miles it was from us—more than forty millions of miles of void. Few people realize the immensity of vacancy in which the dust of the material universe swims
How does the story’s setting influence the plot?
A) The image of the planet creates a feeling of uncertainty.
B) The description of the room foreshadows coming danger.
C) The shadows in the room predict unforeseen events.
D) The simplicity of the equipment shows man’s lack of knowledge.

Everyone is capable of lying, killing, and betrayal; in other words, of being evil.
Do you disagree or agree?
Explain why
Answer:
I say Agree
Explanation:
my reasoning is that, while everyone is significantly different through both a physical, mental and emotional sense, that does not mean that that nicest person is not capable of being a criminal, lying or betraying. The crime, also, does not have to be skilled and well planned out in order for it to count because in the end it depends on the perosn as to whether or not they will choose to kill. Which essentially correlates back to the idea that anyone is capable of killing, lying, and betraying someone. it just a matter of whether or not the person chooses to carry out the action that makes it so controversial.

In Born A Crime, Trevor Noah introduces many individuals who intentionally deceive others. The person's dishonesty may be intended either to help or hurt. Perhaps the decision to mislead comes from a place of personal gain (like Tom or Abel), protection (like in the jail scene), or to carry out a crime. Write a short essay in which you analyze the motives for that individual's deception and discuss how the deception contributes to the text as a whole. *
Answer:
In the scene where Trevor is in the jail cell and the other people who were recently arrested everyone was trying to act tough in order to keep the others in the cell from trying anything. By putting up a fake façade and seeming like an actual in order to convince the others to keep to themselves. On his third day in jail one of the biggest people Trevor's ever seen is thrown in jail and he, along with everyone else in the cell, is scared of this guy. After Noah translates for the guy a bit because the cop does not speak the same language as him, he learns that the guy is actually pretty nice and was put in jail for shoplifting video games. The deception contributes to the story because it sorta uses the metaphorical phrase don't judge a book by its cover as a theme for this chapter.
