Which quotation from the text best supports the inference that the
speaker admires the characteristics of dogs more than the
characteristics of humans?
"The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can
have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts
him, the one that never proves ungrateful or
treacherous, is the dog."
o
"...there by his graveside will the noble dog be
found, his head between his paws and his eyes sad but
open, in alert watchfulness, faithful and true, even unto
death."
e
O
"Gentlemen of the jury, a man's dog stands by him in
prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness."
"If fortune drives the master forth an outcast into the
world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks
no higher privilege than that of accompanying him....

Answer:

"Gentlemen of the jury, a man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness."

Explanation:

Because a dog is a faithful companion who would never forsake him even in terrible circumstances, the speaker indicates that he admires these qualities about dogs more than he does about human.

He adds that dogs are reliable and trustworthy. The speaker admires and respects these characteristics, yet he finds them lacking in the average human being.

For me, reading has always been a path toward liberation and fulfillment. To learn to read is to start down the road of liberation, a road which should be accessible to everyone. No one has the right to keep you from reading, and yet that is what is happening in many areas in this country today. There are those who think they know best what we should read. These censors are at work in all areas of our daily lives.

1. When Mr. Goodenwell saw his baby boy Vince for the first time, he swore that he'd do anything to protect the little guy. This was easy at first, when all Vince did was lie in a pillow and drink milk. But as little Vince grew bigger, he started walking. And once he started walking, he got into everything. He was becoming a serious threat to himself when Mr. Goodenwell, making good on his vow to protect his son, went to the store and bought $150 worth of equipment to childproof his home. He put covers on the outlets, bumpers on the table corners, and a sliding lock on the toilet lid. But right as Mr. Goodenwell was adjusting the covers on the door knobs, Vince pulled the cap off an outlet and choked on it. Mr. Goodenwell found him just in time.

Is this a good poem?

It comes quick with Nay warning
It’s cold aura oh so haunting
Wilt Thou live it’s hard to say
If Thou argue Thou seal Thy fate
On the cold street haunting Thy dreams
Thou beg Thou plead
But deep down Thou know Thou agree
You’ve done bad things
Thou thought they'd never noticed
Three strikes Thou swing
Thy out of the game
Thou may be cunning
But Thither's Nay point in running
Death Wilt catch up
It is quick
It comes fast
With Nay warning
Thou open the mast
Set sail to the seas
But it catches up
As quickly as can be
Thou panic
Thou cower
Thou gaze in terror
It is ready
To devour
Thou jump
Trying to flee
But it jumps
Swimming after Thou
Why do Thou run
Why do Thou hide
Thou know Thou cannot escape
For death comes quick with Nay warning
Thou swim deeper and deeper
Trying to escape
Death’s cold grasp
But Thou look back
Only to see
Death is not to be seen
Then Thou realize
Then Thou panic
For now Thou know
Thou are dead
