read this passage then answer the questions.
Bul-GO!-gi

“Can you chop the scallions?”

Seo-Jun didn't look away from his smartphone to reply to his mother’s request. He was busy texting Vince Cordova about a new show they were planning to binge watch Friday night.

“Seo. . . . Seo!”

“What?”

“What do you mean, 'What’? I need you to chop the scallions.” It was 11:30 a.m., and the Town Pavilion—the office building Ji-Suk's food truck Bul-GO!-gi was parked outside of—was about to unleash a stampede of customers. “I have to get this beef marinating, otherwise in a half hour I'm going to lose a bunch of hungry tax consultants to the chicken and waffle guys across street.”

Seo-Jun smiled, but Ji-Suk couldn't see his eyes from under his royal blue cap. Then she realized he was still looking at his phone, which he was concealing below his knees as his fingers tapped the screen.

“Hey!” She threw a kitchen towel at him, and it unfurled in midair and landed on his head, draping itself over the brim of his cap.

“Okay, okay, I'll do it.”

Ji-Suk had made a name for herself in Kansas City, especially after a local magazine wrote a big cover story when she left her job as an attorney at a law firm after seven years to start a food truck business. If her own mother had still been alive, she would have been quite upset with Ji-Suk for that. Her mother had spent years learning to speak relatively good English, and she’d been determined to make sure Ji-Suk graduated from a respectable college and became a lawyer. Even though she'd made Ji-Suk take Korean lessons every Saturday morning followed by violin lessons in the afternoon—and cooked kimchi and other Korean delicacies with her at least once a week—Ji-Suk's mother had wanted her to succeed by American standards.

And she had. She'd become a lawyer, just like her mother wanted, but she'd also learned to love burnt end barbecue, a local culinary favorite. She was an avid fan of the Kansas City Chiefs. She even loved playing softball; she had a wickedly fast windmill pitch, having played throughout college and graduate school and on the law firm's recreational team. Ji-Suk had succeeded by American standards in ways her mother couldn't have imagined, and in ways her mother probably didn't want, but Ji-Suk couldn't do anything about that. She was American, just as much as she was Korean, and even though her mother wouldn't have wanted her to do it, starting the food truck was Ji-Suk's way of honoring her mother and showing that she valued what her mother had taught her.

Still, she was determined not to force Seo-Jun to do the things her mother had forced her to do. He wouldn't have to take violin lessons, nor would he have to learn Korean. She was more than willing to let him take Korean lessons if he showed any interest, but he never did.

She wasn't sure, however, whether she was doing the right thing, as Seo-Jun didn't seem to want to play sports, nor did he have any serious hobbies. He got by in school, but he didn’t apply himself. He was mostly interested in his friends. She hadn't been any different at his age, and she would have spent most of her time with her friends, too, but her mother would never have allowed it.

Seo-Jun finished chopping a stalk of scallions and put down his knife in order to glance at his phone. “Hey mom, Vince has to do something with his family on Friday night. He asked if we can hang out right now. Would it be okay if I headed over there now?”

“Sure.”

He tried to read his mother's face, but she just carried on marinating the meat. He grabbed his backpack and threw it over one of his shoulders. Then he headed out the back door of the truck.

He looked back at her serving her first guest. She was smiling, but it was a distant smile. Without saying a word, he climbed back into the food truck.

Ji-Suk glanced over but still didn't say a word.

He picked up his knife and a handful of scallions and started chopping.

Central idea for “self reliance”

English 2A-2013
Read the excerpt from chapter 10 of Animal Farm
Years pussed. The seasons came and went, the short
animal lives tied by. A time came when there was no
one who remembered the old days before the
Rebellion, except Clover, Benjamin, Moses the raven,
and a number of the pigs
Muriel was dead: Bluebell Jessie, and Pincher were
dead. Jones too was dead he had died in an
inebriates' home in another part of the country.
Snowball was forgotten. Boxer was forgotten, except by
the few who had known him. Clover was an old stout
mare now, stiff in the joints and with a tendency to
rheumy eyes. She was two years past the retiring age,
but in tact no animal had ever actually retired. The talk
of sering aside a corner of the pasture for
superannuated animals had long since been dropped.
Napoleon was now a mature boar of twenty-four stone.
Squealer was so far that he could with difficulty see out
How does Orwell use irony in this excerpt?
O by using humor to demonstrate how few animals
remember the rebelion
O by illustrating that the news of the rebellion was
exaggerated for dramatic effect
O by building suspense about what the current animals
know about the rebellion
O by showing that readers know more about the
rebellion than most of the animals
Mark this and return

Song :- Darkside (Alan walker)




We're not in love
We share no stories
Just something in your eyes
Don't be afraid
The shadows know me
Let's leave the world behind
Take me through the night
Fall into the dark side
We don't need the light
We'll live on the dark side
I see it
Let's feel it
While we're still young and fearless
Let go of the light
Fall into the dark side
Fall into the dark side
Give into the dark side
Let go of the light
Fall into the dark side
Beneath the sky
As black as diamonds
We're running out of time (Time, time)
Don't wait for truth
To come and blind us
Let's just believe their lies
Believe it
I see it
I know that you can feel it
No secrets worth keeping
So fool me like I'm dreaming
Take me through the night
Fall into the dark side
We don't need the light
We'll live on the dark side
I see it
Let's feel it
While we're still young and fearless
Let go of the light
Fall into the dark side
Fall into the dark side
Give into the dark side
Let go of the light
Fall into the dark side
Take me through the night
Fall into the dark side
We don't need the light
We'll live on the dark side
I see it
Let's feel it
While we're still young and fearless
Let go of the light
Fall into the dark side​

10 pts MERRY CHRISTMAS! What would be some good dialogue to add to this? After they get out of the force field, Kate, Mr. Jacks, and his dog, Vader, are walking around trying to find water, food, and shelter. Vader hears something and runs off. As they are searching, they see a very big beacon emitting a blue-tinged light that is the same color as the force field. As they are walking to the beacon, they meet Greg, Phillip, and Vader. Greg and Phillip are also heading to the beacon. They say they are going to the beacon to obliterate it also. Kate and Mr. Jack are suspicious of G & P, so they ask about P’s blue eyes”Why are your eyes blue?” Kate asked. P tells them that when they were escaping the force field his eyes turned a blue-tinged color like the force field. Greg, the scientist, says he thinks P has the power of the force field inside him now and might be the only one who can destroy it. They all decide to see if Gs theory is correct and go to the beacon to test his hypothesis. Vader runs off again. The group of four reach the beacon and notice that there is an eye scanner…. The doors rapidly opened up to the beacon and the eye scanner vanished. The group’s sight increased because the room's length was extended and in the entryway was Vader...
