How does Eleanor’s mother, Rebecca, feel about the likelihood that Germany will invade Poland? Use three pieces of evidence from the passage to support your answer.
Summers in Warsaw are relatively mild: a bit humid, not too warm. That summer, 1939,
Eleanor’s family had spent all of July and August visiting her grandparents, who lived on a farm
in the country. She and her older sister Mary had spent the month hiking all around their
grandparents’ property and the surrounding farms, collecting leaves and flowers to dry and
keep in their scrapbooks. Each evening, they would carefully hang the day’s treasures up on a
nail in the loft where they slept. Their grandfather helped them label the plants with a piece of
cloth that they tied to the nail. By the end of the month, they had quite a collection—the loft
was fragrant with the smell of dried flowers and grass, and the shadows of the plants were
stiff and looked like winter.
At the end of August, they packed up their big trunk in preparation for returning to the
city. Eleanor was sitting in the kitchen helping her mother and grandmother pack sandwiches
and apples for the train trip.
“Are you sure you want to go back?” Eleanor’s grandmother asked her mother.
“What else could we do?” her mother said. She shrugged. When Eleanor’s mother
shrugged like that, it meant that Eleanor’s father had probably made the decision.
“Stay here, Rebecca. Stay with the children.”
Eleanor’s mother shook her head. “Joseph has already decided,” she said. “We’re going
to wait it out.”
Eleanor’s grandmother shook her head. “This is a bad idea,” she said.
Eleanor’s mother did not respond. They finished packing the lunches in silence.
That night in bed, Eleanor couldn’t sleep. They would have to leave the farm very early
the next morning, but Eleanor’s mind was busy—as her mother would say, it was whirring and
stirring, mostly with questions. Why would it be a bad idea to go home? Why wouldn’t her
mother want to go back? Her father was there, had been working all summer in the dental
office he owned with his brother. She poked Mary to see if she was awake, but Mary just
groaned and turned over in bed.
Eleanor stared at the wooden ceiling of the loft. For some reason, she felt scared.
Maybe it was the way her grandmother’s voice sounded. Or the strange cryptic warning she
had given her mother. At eleven years old, Eleanor knew some things about the world, but not
much. She was just beginning to get a feel for the ways people spoke and the hidden messages
in their words. Either way, Eleanor was not sure she wanted the summer to end.
The next morning, Eleanor’s mother woke them up gently. It was still dark out, and
Eleanor’s grandparents were asleep. Mary carried the basket full of food, their mother carried their trunk with a sling, and Eleanor held her little brother Alfred’s hand as they walked a mile
in the woods to the train station. On the train, all three children fell asleep. Eleanor woke up at
one point to see her mother staring out the window, her arms crossed over her chest, her
eyebrows furrowed low over her eyes.
When they reached Warsaw, their father was at the train station with Uncle Abraham.
Eleanor was excited to see her father, and she ran into his arms when he held them out for a
hug. He picked her up easily, and she felt immediately safe—all of her worries and fears from
the night before melted away as he welcomed the rest of the family and they walked back to
their home.
At the house, Mary went to her room to read and Alfred took a nap. Eleanor sat on the
floor of the front room listening to the radio behind the couch as her parents talked. Eleanor
was sure they didn’t realize she was there.
“I’m worried, Joseph,” her mother said.
“I have very good sources who say that it’s going to be fine. Hitler signed a
nonaggression pact with us… He can’t flout international law and opinion so easily.”
“Look what happened to Austria last year! And Czechoslovakia. Did you not hear about
this Eichmann person in Prague? Jews had to pay damages when their homes and businesses
were vandalized! Do you not get the news in Warsaw?”
Eleanor turned the volume of the radio down and inched closer to the back of the
couch. Maybe this is what her grandmother was worried about… This Eichmann person.
“Rebecca, please be realistic and calm. Has your mother put hysterical notions in your
head?”
“This isn’t about my mother. This is about what’s happening in Poland.” Eleanor’s
mother sounded furious. She stood abruptly and left the room.
Eleanor’s father sighed and leaned back into the couch so it creaked. He looked over the
back of the couch and saw Eleanor lying on the floor.
“You little sneak,” he said, and smiled. “Don’t listen to your mother. Poland is a civilized
country, just like any other.”

Can anyone write a formal letter to the regarding of less taxes of water and electricity? Best one gets 25 points, brainliest and a friend request!
Answer:
Dear [Name of Authority],
I am writing to express my concern about the high taxes on water and electricity in our community. As a responsible citizen and a homeowner, I am finding it increasingly difficult to keep up with the rising costs of basic utilities.
I understand that the government must collect taxes to fund public services and infrastructure, but I strongly believe that the taxes on water and electricity are excessively high and putting a significant strain on household budgets. Many families in our community are struggling to make ends meet, and the high taxes on these essential services are only adding to their financial burden.
I kindly request that you consider reducing the taxes on water and electricity to provide some relief to the residents of our community. I believe that a modest reduction in taxes would go a long way in helping families manage their finances and ensure access to these essential services.
Thank you for considering my request. I look forward to your response and hope that this matter can be resolved in a timely and satisfactory manner.
Sincerely,
[Your Name

According to the Greek myth we read, Hippolyta and Theseus had a complicated relationship. After watching two different plays about Midsummer Night’s Dream, there’s evidence that the Globe version is way better than the Hoffman version. The characters’ facial expressions, body language, and tone of their voices are evidence as to why this is.
Firstly, in the Globe version, their facial expressions portray the emotion of what they are saying. At the beginning of Act 1, Scene 1, in the Hoffman version, Hippolyta looks unsure about kissing Theseus at first when he leans in but then chooses to lean in and kiss Theseus before they are interrupted. From the Greek Myth we read, she shouldn’t be affectionate with him especially after he kidnapped her, she should be angry with him or at least look like she’s angry. However, in the Globe version, Hippolyta is visibly upset with Theseus by the look on her face. She has mixed facial expressions; angry, sad, and frustrated. These are the exact emotions that she should be feeling at this moment. Using this evidence, the Globe version is probably the best version of the Midsummer Night’s Dream.

nswer the following in a complete paragraph or more using good organization, standard formal English, proper grammar, and great content. If you could have the power to read people’s minds, would you choose to have this super power? Why or why not?
Answer:
I would choose to not have this super power, because you can be hurt by what you see in people‘s minds. For example, if you asked your friend if they liked you outfit, and they said yes, if you could read your friends mind you could find that they hate it, and that not only do they not like it, but they think it is horrendous! so, all together I believe it would be better to go though life without the ability to read minds. Because of how much it could it could hurt me.
Explanation:
Hope you like it!
If You Wouldn't Want This Super Power...
If I could read people's minds, I would choose not to have it. I wouldn't want to have this super power because it might hurt me. For example, someone might say, "Wow you look amazing!" but they're just saying that to make me feel good. They might think I look bad, and if you could know that, you would feel bad as well. It also won't benefit me either. I'm already pretty good at detecting lies, and I certainly don't want to know the weird things going on inside of random people's heads. Therefore, I would not choose to be able to read people's minds, because it would do nothing but hurt me.
If You Would Want This Super Power...
If I could read people's minds, I would choose to have it! I would want to have this super power because I could know everything going on inside of peoples heads; like what they actually thought about me, or if there's any mischief going on inside their heads! (you should probably not include this part) You could also protect yourself. For example, if someone wanted to murder you, you would know. Also you could know what people experience, if they are dying inside or anything. Overall, I think being able to read people's minds would be amusing and cool!
You can say yes or no, and also you can tweak this to what's true about you and what you think! ♡
Hope this helped! ♡

How has America changed over time? Is the United States handling the current refugee crisis differently than during World War 2 and the Holocaust?
Answer:
America has changed a lot over time. It was once a nation of immigrants, but in recent years, it has become more and more difficult for refugees to come to the United States. During World War II, the United States took in millions of refugees, but today, the number of refugees admitted each year is much smaller.
There are a number of reasons for this change. One reason is that the United States is now a much more diverse country than it was in the past. In the early 20th century, the majority of Americans were white, but today, the country is home to people from all over the world. This diversity has made some Americans less welcoming to refugees, who they see as outsiders.
Another reason for the change is that the United States is now facing a number of its own problems, such as economic inequality and terrorism. These problems have made some Americans less willing to help refugees, who they see as a drain on resources.
Despite these challenges, there are still many Americans who are willing to help refugees. There are a number of organizations that work to help refugees, and there are also many individual Americans who volunteer their time to help refugees adjust to life in the United States.
It is important to remember that refugees are people just like us. They are fleeing violence and persecution, and they are looking for a safe place to live. We should all do our part to help them.

Journal Entry: Finding a Recipe Online
Today I was feeling adventurous and decided to try a new dish for dinner. I searched online for some recipes and found one that looked delicious and easy to make. It was called **chicken and mushroom pie** and it had a lot of positive reviews.
I followed the instructions carefully and gathered all the ingredients. I had to chop some onions, garlic, mushrooms and chicken, and cook them in a skillet with some butter, flour, chicken stock, cream and herbs. Then I transferred the mixture to a pie dish and covered it with some puff pastry. I brushed some egg on top and baked it in the oven for about 25 minutes.
The result was amazing! The pie was golden and flaky on the outside, and creamy and savory on the inside. The chicken was tender and the mushrooms added a nice texture and flavor. It was very filling and satisfying, and I enjoyed every bite. I felt proud of myself for trying something new and succeeding.
I think I will make this dish again in the future, maybe with some variations. I wonder what other recipes I can find online that are easy and tasty. Maybe I will search for some desserts next time. I love exploring new cuisines and learning new skills in the kitchen.

Read "Sonnet" by James Weldon Johnson. In a well-written paragraph of 5–7 sentences, explain how the structure of the poem affects its meaning. Be sure to discuss the meter, rhyme scheme, shift, and couplet.
My heart be brave, and do not falter so,
Nor utter more that deep, despairing wail.
Thy way is very dark and drear I know,
But do not let thy strength and courage fail;
For certain as the raven-winged night
Is followed by the bright and blushing morn,
Thy coming morrow will be clear and bright;
'Tis darkest when the night is furthest worn.
Look up, and out, beyond, surrounding clouds,
And do not in thine own gross darkness grope,
Rise up, and casting off thy hind'ring shrouds,
Cling thou to this, and ever inspiring hope:
Tho' thick the battle and tho' fierce the fight,
There is a power making for the right.
Allegory, a symbolic fictional narrative that conveys a that means not expressly set forth within the narrative. Allegory, that encompasses such forms as fable, parable, and story, could have that means on 2 or a lot of levels that the reader will perceive solely through an interpretative method.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines “allegory” as a “story, picture, or alternative piece of art that uses symbols to convey a hidden or ulterior that means, usually an ethical or political one.” An allegory contains a symbolism and literal that means once an abstract plan like liberty, freedom, envy, greed is expressed through a issue or person is understood as an allegory.
James Weldon Johnson's "Sonnet" is a strong and powerful sonnet that investigates subjects of affection, misfortune, and the progression of time.
The design of the sonnet assumes a significant part in conveying these subjects and forming the general importance of the work. The sonnet is written in poetic pattern, with each line comprising of ten syllables and five metrical feet. This customary meter makes a feeling of dependability and request that differences with the sonnet's more turbulent subjects.
The sonnet's rhyme plot is likewise huge. The initial eight lines follow an ABAB CDCD rhyme plot, with the last six lines comprising of a rhyming couplet. This construction makes a feeling of strain and goal, as the initial eight lines move toward the last couplet. The shift that happens between the initial eight lines and the last six lines is additionally huge.

What does William Wordsworth mean by "heads" in the following bolded line? I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way, They stretched in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in a sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced; but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company: I gazed—and gazed—but little thought What wealth the show to me had brought: For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils.
