Soldiers of my Old Guard: I bid you farewell. For twenty years I have constantly accompanied you on the road to honor and glory. In these latter times, as in the days of our prosperity, you have invariably been models of courage and fidelity. With men such as you our cause could not be lost; but the war would have been interminable; it would have been civil war, and that would have entailed deeper misfortunes on France. I have sacrificed all of my interests to those of the country. I go, but you, my friends, will continue to serve France. Her happiness was my only thought. It will still be the object of my wishes. Do not regret my fate; if I have consented to survive, it is to serve your glory. I intend to write the history of the great achievements we have performed together. Adieu, my friends. Would I could press you all to my heart.

Answer:

This speech was said by Napoleon Bonaparte on April 20, 1814, after he failed to invade Russia.

Explanation:

Napoleon, in fact, had a very large and powerful reign, being feared throughout Europe. Amid so many conquests, a defeat ended his reign, the defeat in invading Russia in 1814.

There are many reasons that Napoleon wished to invade Russia, among which we can mention Russia's non-accession to participate in the continental blockade against England, Russia's alliance against Sweden and even the refusal of the marriage proposals he made for two Russian princess.

Indeed, the attempted invasion of Russia was the bloodiest battle that Napoleon and his army faced, but that battle massacred the French army withdrew the faith of the population in Napoleon and ended his reign.

Based on the passage, what will Miranda’s mother probably do?

A.
ground Miranda for the next two weeks
B.
understand that Miranda tried her best
C.
find someone to tutor Miranda in English
D.
force Miranda to quit the soccer team

Answers

Answer:

D. Force Miranda to quit the soccer team

Explanation:

Miranda’s mother probably "ground Miranda for the next two weeks." The correct option is A.

What is the passage tells about?

The passage tells the story of Miranda, a high school student who is struggling to finish her 1,000-word report on The Catcher in the Rye, which is due in half an hour. Miranda has been procrastinating and not paying attention in class, and she is worried about getting a bad grade and losing privileges like playing soccer. She rushes to finish her report in the computer lab but is interrupted by the start of class and has to leave before finishing. The main idea of the passage is the pressure and stress that students can feel when they procrastinate and don't put in enough effort in their schoolwork.

Based on the passage, it is most likely that Miranda's mother will ground her for the next two weeks. The passage indicates that Miranda's mother has a history of taking away privileges or punishing her for poor grades or missing curfew. There is no indication that her mother will be understanding or seek to find a tutor for her. Additionally, there is no direct connection between Miranda's grades in English and her participation in the soccer team, so it is unlikely that her mother will force her to quit the team.

Therefore, option A, grounding Miranda for the next two weeks, is the most likely scenario based on the information provided in the passage.

Read this excerpt from Little Women.

Money is a needful and precious thing,—and, when well used, a noble thing,—but I never want you to think it is the first or only prize to strive for. I'd rather see you poor men's wives, if you were happy, beloved, contented, than queens on thrones, without self- respect and peace.
Marmee tells her daughters this shortly after Meg returns from a fortnight with the well-to-do Moffats. Amy and Meg have both wanted to have nicer things and be a part of high society, but cannot because Father lost their wealth. Without marrying well, they will never have more than they do right now and will always have to work. Selecting either Meg or Amy as the focus of your answer, discuss whether either girl learns the lesson Marmee tries to teach them here. Use details to explain why they have or have not.

Answers

Answer:

I feel Meg will learn this lesson in a short amount of time.

Explanation:

Meg has just encountered the upper class, she has experienced what it is like in their shoes. Depending on how the interaction went will decide how Meg chooses to pursue her wish of being seen as a queen. I know from prior knowledge that Meg’s enjoyed herself but was embarrassed when her sister caught her acting as someone else.

Answer:

I think Meg learns a bit more about the lesson that Marmee teaches them

Explanation:

In the text, It says nothing about Amy being "helpful, or generous" but it does say that she wants to have nicer things and be a part of higher society.

In the text, it does say one thing about Meg. She returns with the well-to-do moffats. Which I think, she returned ONLY because of the well being of the moffats, which is a family. So she did something good in my opinion.

Although I am not sure of the meaning of, " She returns with the well-to-do moffats" So do please correct me if I am wrong

Ecclesiastes 3:3-8
3 For everything there is a season, and a time for every [a]purpose under heaven: 2 a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; 3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; 5 a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; 6 a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; 7 a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; 8 a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

Answer:

gather stones means i think like gather memories and lose memories

Explanation:

Answer & Explanation::

Chapter three of Ecclesiastes is about how there is a time for everything. 3:5 KJV "a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;" is likely referring to an ancient custom of destroying a farmers field by throwing many stones at it. The Bible is often very literal, sometimes it is hard to tell due to it being written in a very different time. This is why it is very helpful to know who wrote the book and when they did.

Choose the correct indirect question for the direct question ‘‘Has the train left?'' A)Have you found out if the train had left? B)Have you found out if the train has left? C)Have you found out if the train left? D)Have you found out has the train left?

Answers

Answer:

C) Have you found out if the train left?

Explanation:

Direct and indirect speech refers to the manner or way in which speeches are reported. The direct speech refers to the direct usage of the exact words spoken whereas an indirect speech is a changed, conformed way of stating or expressing what has been said. The indirect speech focuses more on the content of the speech that's reported rather than the exact words used in the reported speech.

The given direct question "Has the train left?" will be written in the indirect speech as "Have you found out if the train left?" The "has" in the direct speech will be changed to "have" in forming/ asking the question.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

What does Johnny mean when he says “stay gold” right before he dies? (page 148)

How has Dally’s character developed from the beginning of the book until now?

Answers

Answer:

1. Sodapop says that he likes fighting because “[i]t’s action. It’s a contest, Like a drag race or a  dance or something” (133).

Steve, is more violent in the sense that he likes fighting because he  wants to “beat those Soc’ head in” (133) because he enjoys it.

The boys explain that Darry likes  to fight because he gets to show off his muscles. Ponyboy says that Darry likes to take part in  anything related to strength.

Ponyboy will fight, but he doesn’t like it.

Darry is hesitant to let Ponyboy fight because he has lost weight and strength since being in  Windrixville. He also doesn’t like that Ponyboy will be fighting without Johnny, since they  usually protect each other.

2. Johnny’s last words to Ponyboy were “Stay gold, Ponyboy. Stay gold” (148).

This message  refers back to the poem that Johnny and Pony read while they were at the church in Windrixville.

Stay gold in this particular instance refers to being true to yourself and attempting to remain  innocent and uncorrupted. When Johnny, in his final hour, tells Ponyboy to “Stay Gold” he is  telling him to not conform to what society dictates and to stay true to his pure self despite the violent and tumultuous world he lives in.

3. Dally had pulled the kids from the burning  church and Dally had risked his life and risked going to jail in order to keep Pony and  Johnny safe. He made a difference by caring for his family.
