Read this excerpt about Angel Island, an immigration station in the 1900s. Immigrants were detained for days, weeks, or months.

They underwent unpleasant health exams and interviews designed to judge whether their claims were correct. Their answers had to match those of the US citizen they claimed as a relation, or they would be deported. “They grilled us incessantly day after day,” said Don Kingman, a Chinese man who was, in fact, born in Oakland, California. At the age of five, his family moved to Hong Kong. But when he returned at age eighteen, he was sent through Angel Island. “They asked insignificant questions which were significant for them. How many steps do you have in front of your house? What did your mother have for breakfast? What is the name of your grandmother?” Aged sixteen in 1935, Lester Tom Lee immigrated to America by himself. He was detained for about two months. “The main reason I was detained so long was that my father and I gave the inspectors different dates about when I departed China,” Lee said. “The Chinese lunar calendar is about a month off from the American calendar! Aya!” Which words best describe the experiences of Don Kingman and Lester Tom Lee? entertaining, frustrating satisfying, overwhelming challenging, bewildering embarrassing, exciting

Which phrase from the excerpt best reflects Hamlet’s state of mind?
MrMuchimi

This is because Hamlet is weary, meaning tired, from having to decide so much what he is supposed to do. On one hand, he wants to avenge his father's death by killing his own uncle. On the other hand, he is fatigued, and quite suicidal, which is obvious from his soliloquy, To be or not to be.

Look at the maps. The top map shows carbon dioxide released by wildfires. The bottom map shows how the carbon dioxide would have
Genrish500 [490]

The correct answer is A.

The bottom map provides data that shows that prescribed fires would actually reduce the carbon dioxide, as opposed to wild fires, which would produce it in large quantities.

Therefore, these maps could be used as evidence to support the idea that prescribed fires are benefitial for the environment, rather than harmful.

Which statement best explains why Shakespeare has Cassius use the word fawn rather than a synonym such as flatter to describe hi
GaryK [48]

The statement that best explains why Shakespeare has Cassius use the word <em>fawn</em> rather than a synonym such as <em>flatter</em> to describe his actions is the A: Fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain. In the excerpt that this question is referring to, the shrewd Cassius is going to reveal some aspects of Brutus's personality, or of his behavior, that he cannot see, and he asks him to trust in him, unless he saw him flattering somebody and then slandering him on their back; in that case, Cassius concludes, Brutus could be suspicious of him. Shakespeare is using the word <em>fawn </em>in Cassius's speech in order to emphasize his manipulative and devious traits. The word does have a negative connotation, and it often implies disapproval of that person's actions.
