Based on this passage, what is James Cross Giblin's attitude toward Kircher? Use the drop-down menu to complete the sentence.
But Kircher's ideas about the hieroglyphs themselves were even farther off the mark than those of Horapollo. Looking at a certain group of symbols – which actually stood for the name of a pharaoh – Kircher let his imagination run wild. Without any evidence to support him, he said that the hieroglyphs meant "The blessings of the god Osiris are to be procured by means of sacred ceremonies, in order that the benefits of the river Nile may be obtained."
From 1650 onward, Kircher produced several volumes of such nonsense. It earned him a reputation for being an expert on the hieroglyphs – a reputation that lasted, unfortunately, long after his death in 1680.

Which excerpt from "The Masque of the Red Death" best shows Prince Prospero's self-centeredness?
It was in the eastern or blue chamber in which stood the Prince Prospero as he uttered these words. They rang
throughout the seven rooms loudly and clearly, for the prince was a bold and robust man, and the music had become
hushed at the waving of his hand.
O It was then, however, that the Prince Prospero, maddening with rage and the shame of his own momentary
cowardice, rushed hurriedly through the six chambers, while none followed him on account of a deadly terror that had
seized upon all.
O When the eyes of the Prince Prospero fell upon this spectral image (which, with a slow and solemn movement, as if
more fully to sustain its role, stalked to and from among the waltzers) he was seen to be convulsed, in the first
moment with a strong shudder either of terror or distaste; but, in the next, his brow reddened with rage.
O But the Prince Prospero was happy and dauntless and sagacious. When his dominions were half depopulated, he
summoned to his presence a thousand hale and light-hearted friends from among the knights and dames of his court,
and with these retired to the deep seclusion of one of his castellated abbeys.

"While we do these things, these deeply momentous things, let us be very clear, and make very clear to all the world what our motives and our objects are." —Woodrow Wilson
What is the purpose of placing the main clause ("…let us be very clear, and make very clear to all the world what our motives and our objects are.") at the end of the sentence?
Answer:
The purpose is to highlight the importance of what he is going to say.
Explanation:
When the author uses repetition to say "… let us be very clear, and make very clear to all the world what our motives and our objects are," he is drawing the attention of listeners and readers and highlighting the importance of what he is going to speak. This makes the public pay close attention to his words, as these words will have a strong impact and must be very well understood and kept, as they present something essential and important.

Read the excerpt from Frida Kahlo by Hedda Garza.
Then she turned to the mirror on her canopy and painted the first of many self-portraits, a gift for Alex Gómez, who was still avoiding her. She completed the portrait in time for the first anniversary of the bus accident. It portrayed her in perfect health and wearing an elegant red velvet dress. . . . "Put it in a low place so that you can see it as if you are looking at me,” she wrote in her note accompanying the portrait.
The friendship between Kahlo and Gómez resumed, but their romance was apparently dead. In March 1927, Gómez, now studying law, left for a work-study program in Germany, telling Kahlo he would return in July. As he was about to depart, he claimed falsely that an aunt was having surgery and he had to rush off to help her, avoiding a personal farewell at Kahlo’s bedside.
Which response to the excerpt is an opinion?
Answer: A is the correct answer

What does Fuller consider the key to the future of young girls in the west? attending college in a large city receiving a new kind of educational experience leaving school to work on their own farms immigrating to another country
Answer:
Receiving a new kind of educational
Explanation:
Fuller believes that girls have a lot of potential for the future and that they can be very important for themselves and the region where they live. However, for this, they must receive a different type of education, because in the West, the education provided for girls is not sufficient and does not exploit their capacity, making them intelligent, independent and relevant to society. He recognizes that it is necessary to exploit the girls' intellectual capacity so that the future is changed.
Answer:
Receiving a new kind of educational

2. Read the following excerpt: Without looking at him, a group of peons
pulls on a rope. A woven grass mat that faces the master falls, exposing a
large mirror to view. Señor Noboa stares at himself in it, full length, on
horseback, face to face. And Señor Noboa sees Señor Noboa as he falls
from his horse. As he shudders with strange convulsions. Which is the
most logical inference to draw about what is taking place in this scene?
Consider the context of the rest of the story.
A The peons confront Señor Noboa with his past misdeeds, and Señor Noboa's
resulting emotions cause him to suffer a heart attack
B. The peons kill Señor Noboa by tricking him into looking at himself in the mirror,
which causes him to fall victim to his own curse.
C. The peons honor Señor Noboa by putting him on display, but as a result he has a
vision of his own death
D. The peons kill Señor Noboa using ropes and a mat, and they force Señor Noboa to
watch himself die
Answer:
C. The peons honor Señor Noboa by putting him on display, but as a result he has a
vision of his own death
Explanation:
This is the most logical explanation for that. The group of peons never wanted to tell Senor Noboa about his impending death hence the reason why they decided to show him on the mirror.
To Senor Noboa, it was about honour being extended to him without knowing that, his death is close by. That revelation on the mirror was simply a vision of how he is going to die.
HELP ME PLZZ I NEED HELP WITH THIS!! I CAN'T FAIL THIS SO PLEASE HELP ME!!
Answer:
D
Explanation:
After the line, the example has been made already and it was kind of like a slap in the face. It would be most logical, in my opinion, to introduce it a bit more considering how much of a jump there is.
A is not correct as the rest of the passage describes only one thing.
B doesn't quite fit in this as there is no need to describe how long it takes for ice to freeze.
C doesn't make sense as the importance, or ice freezing isn't emphasized in the remainder of the passage.
Best of luck!

Which sentence from this excerpt of Jefferson Davis’s Inaugural Address indicates that secession was the Confederacy’s way of reclaiming its legal powers?
An agricultural people, whose chief interest is the export of a commodity required in every manufacturing country, our true policy is peace, and the freest trade which our necessities will permit . . . There can be but little rivalry between ours and any manufacturing or navigating community, such as the Northeastern States of the American Union. It must follow, therefore, that a mutual interest would invite good will and kind offices. If, however, passion or the lust of dominion should cloud the judgment or inflame the ambition of those States, we must prepare to meet the emergency and to maintain, by the final arbitrament of the sword, the position which we have assumed among the nations of the earth. We have entered upon the career of independence, and it must be inflexibly pursued. Through many years of controversy with our late associates, the Northern States, we have vainly endeavored to secure tranquillity, and to obtain respect for the rights to which we were entitled. As a necessity, not a choice, we have resorted to the remedy of separation; and henceforth our energies must be directed to the conduct of our own affairs, and the perpetuity of the Confederacy which we have formed. If a just perception of mutual interest shall permit us peaceably to pursue our separate political career, my most earnest desire will have been fulfilled. But, if this be denied to us, and the integrity of our territory and jurisdiction be assailed, it will but remain for us, with firm resolve, to appeal to arms and invoke the blessings of Providence on a just cause . . .
