The day of the audition, Lily woke up early and walked downstairs to join her mother and Kip in the kitchen. She sat down to a h

ealthy breakfast and Kip asked her, "So, are you nervous for today?
"Not really, Kip," she said. "It is really no big deal because I have auditioned a million other times," she said, swallowing the truth that she was, in fact, terrified
How does the author's inclusion of this excerpt contribute to the text?
It shows that Kip is intelligent
It shows that Lily is dishonest at heart
It shows that Lily is too proud to admit to her brother that she is afraid
It shows that Kip is unkind, as he is trying to make Lily more nervous than she already is.

Answer:

Outreach

Explanation:

The three options provided are types of people i.e "children", "elderly", and "homeless". So, the fourth element too should be a type of people. Hence, "Finances", and "Conservation" are eliminated.

Out of "Students" and "Outreach", "outreach" would be better option;

Firstly because, children (age), elderly (age) homeless (location), and then fourth too should be about location i.e. "Outreach"

Secondly, because "students" is a sort of occupation, children may also be students. So, "Students" does not fit well with the three provided options.

Match the transcendental authors to their works.
Rudik [331]

Answer:

“Nature“ – Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Woman in the Nineteenth Century“ – Margaret Fuller  

“Walden“ – Henry David Thoreau

"Orphic Sayings" - Amos Bronson Alcott

Explanation:

<em>Nature </em>is a book written by Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 – 1882) published in 1836. The book has a form of an essay, where the author discusses the relationship between humans and nature. According to Emerson, a man should find a sense of his life in nature and the universe that surrounds him and forget about money and any material goods.

<em>Woman in the Nineteenth Century</em> is an essay book by Margaret Fuller (1810 – 1846), published in 1843. In this essay, Fuller explains a women's position in society and explains that they aren't less capable than men. She criticizes gender inequality and society for establishing gender hierarchies and restricting women's rights.

<em>Walden </em>(<em>Walden, or, Life in the Woods</em>) is a book that consists of 18 essays by Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862), published in 1854. Walden describes how simple and pleasant our lives could be, based on his life in nature, in the cabin he built at Walden Pond.

<em>Orphic Sayings </em>is a book of 100 aphorisms by Amos Bronson Alcott (1799 – 1888), published in the transcendental journal <em>Dial </em>between 1840 and 1842. These sayings show us the mystical and transcendental idealism of Bronson Alcott and reveal some of his thoughts about life, nature, faith, time, etc.

Based on the context of each sentence, choose the word that most closely matches the denotation of the bolded word.
Sindrei [870]
While I cannot tell what is bolded, I can try to help.

A subtle distinction is a nuance.

A preference could be an inclination.

To condemn someone is like denouncing them.

Old fashioned could be quaint.
